Chapter 739 - 345 Bright Base_2
There was no third location. Previously, Shadow had a box of landmines, but when the division happened, Shana’s group only took two. Starlight had control of the Highway Star, along with a pickup truck and most of the supplies. Perhaps this was also a merit of the Shadow People; no one complained about getting less during the split. Whenever the topic of division came up, everyone first acknowledged their own mistakes, and no one blamed the absent for their errors. And until now, no one had spoken ill of Starlight.

The amount of building materials in the hardware store wasn’t very abundant. This wasn’t for any reason other than the game mechanics at play. Each building had a predetermined number of basic packs per square meter already clearly laid out. Even for a hardware store, this only meant a higher base count, not an overflow of building materials all over the place.
Besides the material packs, this store also had many non-system items, including wrenches, screwdrivers, nails, cement, tiles, glass, paint, and so on. All usable things, the ways to use them left up to the players’ creativity.

Hoisting bags of cement on their backs, they made circles transporting it to the base, the detestable Maya wanting everything. Thus, increasing manpower became a topic for discussion between Lin Sha.
More than a day had passed since the establishment of the base, and after yesterday’s efforts, they had specifically scavenged about a dozen barrels of fuel, but so far there was no specific plan to head to Left County, nor had there been an open discussion about it. Today was the eighteenth day of the last month of autumn; considering the potential end-of-season event that could take up a week’s time, there were only about five days left.
Once winter came, the roads would inevitably be blocked by heavy snow. Thinking of reaching Left County, 250 kilometers away, relying solely on cars would be impossible.
Shana said, "Do you believe it? Maya, Stone, and I have some different opinions regarding our work directions."
"I believe it."
Shana, frustrated, said, "You need to say you don’t believe it, so I can continue."
