Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 729

Chapter 729: 390 Grain Crisis

Ever since those mutated pine trees had appeared outside the base, the overall security of the base instantly increased several levels. Those mutated pine trees were simply too tall; the protection wall of the base was only ten meters high, yet these mutated pines stood a full ninety meters taller than the wall!

If there was ever a zombie group or a mutant beast attack, before the superpower users within the base had a chance to act, as long as the zombies entered the warning range of the mutated pine trees, the trees would shoot out pine needles with a "whoosh whoosh whoosh" as if they were injected with chicken blood, turning the zombies and mutant beasts into porcupines. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

Not only the land-based zombies and mutant beasts were dealt with in this manner, but the skyborne zombie birds and mutated birds were treated with the same disregard. Once they approached within the warning range of the mutated pine trees, they would end up being skewered into porcupines as well.

Since receiving Fang Yuxin’s reply, some Wood Element superpower users began attempting to contract with these mutated pine trees. Unfortunately, these mutated pines had originally received Wood Element True Essence from Fang Yuxin and looked down upon the Wood Element Superpower input by the superpower users, becoming quite picky.

At first, they accepted the overtures of the Wood Element superpower users, but flatly refused to enter into contracts, proving to be quite temperamental. Because of this, some people began to have second thoughts, but still, many continued with determination. Gradually, these Wood Element superpower users became smarter, realizing that timely assistance amid crisis was more appreciated by the trees than adding luxuries during peace. So, whenever there was a zombie group or mutant beast attack, they would specifically wait for the mutated pine trees to be weakened from unleashing their big move before giving them the Wood Element Superpower.

Over time, these mutated pine trees gradually understood that Fang Yuxin would no longer provide them with Wood Element True Essence, so the more amiable ones agreed to contracts with the superpower users they favored.

Those lower-ranked and less affluent Wood Element superpower users had almost given up, but after Fang Yuxin made that compensation proposal, they gradually saw the benefits and persisted, eventually entering into successful contracts and delivering the crystal cores to Fang Yuxin.

As a result, Fang Yuxin made quite a fortune from these mutated pine trees.

With the days passing, she and Bai Ye made several excursions, managing to find many animals to raise in the farms without arousing suspicion, thereby developing the Hope Battle Group’s fisheries and livestock industries. Moreover, once food processing plants within the base started operating, various types of ready-to-eat convenience foods began appearing one after another, significantly easing everyone’s burdens.
