Fang Yuyang frowned and sighed beside him, "If it weren’t for my little sister constantly using her Wood Element Superpower to heal our wounds along the way, I’m afraid we would have already..."
Fang Yuxin stood to the side and didn’t go on about how miserable their journey had been. Instead, she asked, "Beishi Base is so large, it must be developing very well, right? If we want to enter, are there any procedures we need to follow?"
These Corpse Hunters were all residents of Beishi City, and upon hearing her praise and apparent envy of Beishi Base, they couldn’t help feeling a sense of pride, even a sense of superiority. However, thinking of the actual situation within Beishi Base, these people began to feel defensive and hostile towards the three newcomers who had suddenly arrived and planned to stay.
Although Beishi Base had indeed developed quite well into a large base, there were simply too many people inside. As a result, many had to squeeze into narrow rooms, and resources had become increasingly expensive. If more people came, wouldn’t the prices sky-rocket even more?
Thus, after hesitating for a moment, the leader shook his head and sighed, "Beishi Base is not as good as you think. Your base is short of food, and Beishi Base is in a similarly grim situation. Beishi Base is a large base, with many more people than your small base can compare to. The Base is already overly saturated, and there’s no way to accommodate more people. Even if you do want to enter, you will have to pay a considerable price."
Hearing this, some of the less savvy among them changed their expressions slightly and looked at him, puzzled. Fang Yuxin and her companions saw this and feigned ignorance, showing an anxious demeanor as they looked to the person who had just spoken for help.
This person was the leader of the squad, roughly at the Second-level Middle Stage, not very strong. Judging by their clothes and equipment, one could guess they were not doing well in Beishi Base. No wonder they had to venture out on missions in such cold weather.
Bai Ye appeared to believe him, asking anxiously, "What should we do then? Our vehicle is destroyed, and we have nothing left but these clothes. If we can’t enter Beishi Base, what will we do?"
Although the captain had his own motives for saying what he did, he wasn’t heartless. After hesitating, he suggested, "There are other bases nearby. Why don’t you take a look?"
