Chapter 85: Disgusting Harvest
Han Yi and his group’s greatest advantage was that their abilities were stronger than those of ordinary Superpower Users, which, of course, could not be separated from the help of Crystal Cores.
Han Yi was not naive enough to think that the base was friendly to them because of his former identity as one of the Han Family’s young masters. Once the base had stronger Superpower Users, they, he feared, would no longer have the right to say "no" to those in power. Just like Han Rui at this moment, who had to join the so-called ability team in order to earn a place in the base.
This world had never been about reason. If you want freedom, if you want to say no, first, you must be strong.
What they needed to do now was to enhance themselves as quickly as possible before the base solved the mystery of the Crystal Cores. That way, they could avoid becoming the prey.
What Lu Changyuan thought was exactly what Han Yi thought; after getting Han Yi’s approval, Lu Changyuan had Xiao Jian go through the formalities at the labor center.
Accepting tasks wasn’t as simple as just accepting them: it required card swiping for records, registering the names and numbers of all those participating, along with relevant information, and writing down an estimated time. If one was driving out, they needed to register the vehicle model and license plate number. Lastly, the staff would report this information, and if the task wasn’t handed over within the estimated time, then the task would fail and reappear on screen. If there was no return after one week beyond the estimated time, the base would declare you dead, and your residence and property in the base would be reclaimed.
Thus, most people tended to write a few more days on their estimated times. Of course, writing too much time was also not acceptable, as the staff would directly reject your task application during the review.
However, there were also some tasks without time constraints, such as collecting materials like food, gasoline, diesel, and medicines; these were all materials constantly needed, and with limited military manpower, it was impossible to gather such items daily. Therefore, these tasks were issued to enable capable civilians to alleviate the pressure on the base.
