Chapter 243 - 153: Welcome_2
It turned out that, ten days ago, Invincible Base had emulated Shadow Base by having Peanut and Emerald Feather establish a sub-base. However, the reason behind Shadow Base creating a sub-base was due to stockpile and in preparation to advance into Left County. After hearing this, Lin Wu felt that having Peanut and Emerald Feather set up a base was purely an act of exile.
All of this stemmed from considerations of Invincible Base’s strategic position.
Shadow Base had strategic plans to move into Left County, an idea also presented by Invincible Base during their strategic meeting. However, they lacked information and strength, and after witnessing the patrolling zombie tides, they retreated from that plan. They then proposed the idea of building a beautiful home with Invincible Base at its center at the strategic meeting.
Currently, Fishing was the main source of food for Invincible Base, and Peanut had proposed the idea of developing agriculture which gained the support of some people. As for how to develop agriculture, it was about establishing a sub-base for agricultural cultivation. Currently, Invincible Base had a total of two agricultural skill players, and due to the lack of electricity and fertilizers, the yield from farming was low.
During the meeting, Logistics raised a concern on behalf of Fishing players, inquiring whether Peanut’s plan considered cuts to the number of Fishing players. Peanut’s answer was affirmative, for they would not need as many Fishing players after agriculture took off. Invincible denied this, stating that everyone was brothers and sisters, and that the development of agriculture was due to food demands, with Fishing being an effective means of obtaining food. He would not easily dismiss anyone.
In the end, Peanut, Emerald Feather, and an agricultural player named Flight went to the gas station to establish a sub-base, mainly for farming. Raccoon Cat, due to good relations with Peanut, initially planned to follow, but for various reasons, such as bed space, ended up staying at the main base temporarily.
For the sub-base, even though two farmlands were opened, the yield wasn’t high due to lack of electricity and fertilizer. To increase the grain yield, the three of them had to carry water every day, which caused them some grievances. After all, the labor of 10 people carrying water was completely different from that of 3. The day before yesterday, Invincible Base communicated with the sub-base, hoping to even out some food to the main base, but the request was rejected by the sub-base.
As Raccoon Cat explained, "It’s all because of the system reform. Fishing players now need to actually catch fish to count as obtaining food. Plus, there were a few days without sunlight, preventing everyone from going out, which drastically reduced food income."
Raccoon Cat was also an agricultural Life Skills player who, like Tangtang, a former member of Shadow Base, had studied horticulture. However, the Invincible Base site was too small to allocate land, so Raccoon Cat might soon be assigned to a new Invincible sub-base in the near future.
