I'm a cook in the wasteland

Chapter 270 Painting the Land as a City
Base One finally stabilized.

It was Zhai Man who took over the power of the city lord. Although Su Mo only cooperated with this woman this time, he felt that the other party had enough courage.

Such a person who is ambitious, sees clearly, and will not be blind will control the No. [-] base.

At least Su Mo would not be afraid that the other party would continue to confront him in a short time.

As for taking down the entire No. [-] base.

It may be feasible, but a painful price must be paid, and in the end who can guarantee that no one else will take advantage of the danger.

And the most important goal now is not to capture the city, but to find that Xue Liang.

Since the other party has made such complete preparations, it can only show that this No. [-] base is still not his lair.

Su Mo couldn't feel at ease if he didn't drive the opponent to death.

The United Army retreated, but the search for Xue Liang continued, and Zhai Man also contributed to this.

After all, most of the reasons for the near collapse of Base [-] were Xue Liang.

Regardless of whether it is for show or whatever, only by finding Xue Liang can an explanation be given to the public.

And what about the rest of the base.

Some were indeed out of fear that Xue Liang also sent people to search and arrest, while others followed suit, fearing that it would be their turn to be besieged if they were suspected.

Su Mo, who returned to the camp, started the last line of defense in the camp.

That is the city wall.

Yes, the "city" wall!

The scale of the current camp has already surpassed any wanderer camp in the wasteland.

So building a city is actually imperative.

Unlike the rest of the bases.

Now the rock camp is located on the back of the Cyanwood Mountain.

What she wants is a mountain city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is a very novel idea, but it also means that the difficulty in construction is much higher than that of other bases.

The same goes for the time spent.

Now the mountain city is gradually growing in size.

From the foot of the mountain to the top, there are many buildings in the forest, which form a unique landscape.

And in order to give the residents living in a real sense of security.

Then a wall that is enough to isolate the outside danger from the city is indispensable.

Although now, they are still in a state of cooperation with the beast side.

But this kind of cooperation may end abruptly when Xue Liang is found, or under what circumstances.

The king beast's thinking is no different from that of a real human being.

Changes can happen at any time.

Su Mo couldn't pin his hopes on an uncertain matter.

Therefore, in this cold winter, everyone in the camp is still busy and in full swing.

They saw Su Mo's idea and supported it.

How many people here used to be homeless.

Now not only has a place to live, but it is very likely that he will become a person in the city.

Class distinctions inside and outside the base have long been ingrained in the wasteland.

If they can leap forward, for these people, no matter how much effort they put in, it will be worth it.

As construction progressed, news came of the all-important hunt.

Unfortunately, without exception, all failed.

"Every time we find a little bit of news to follow through, we run into trouble."

Dai Yufeng who slapped the table was a little irritable.

She is in charge of intelligence, so she is actually very familiar with tracking.

That day Xue Liang left Base No. [-] in an unexpected way, but after all, he still left some traces.

Now the rest of the bases dare not accept that Xue Liang in this limelight.

In this way, the opponent can only wander in the wasteland.

Then tracking down the other party should have been within reach.

But until now, the whole thing seemed to be mired in mud, with no hope.

"Someone is blocking us from finding Xue Liang."

Lu Xinglan told the truth straight away.

The rest of the people also nodded, but the question is, who is this person.

The rest of the base?

With the operation, Dai Yufeng also has some eyes and ears in the rest of the bases, and this possibility is directly ruled out.

So is it the rest of the forces?
But being besieged by a huge base in this wasteland, no matter how big the force is, it is impossible to leave no traces.

"You're forgetting a possibility."

It was Qi Ling who spoke. He was sitting on a chair at this moment, his eyes were a little deep.

He looked up at Dai Yufeng, very serious.

"Predator."

"Although these people are hostile to humans, don't forget that they are humans after all, and naturally they have interests involved."

"Similarly, there will be needs and desires."

As long as human beings have needs, there are too many maneuverability.

Xue Liang is a master among them.

"You mean, Xue Liang is now hiding among the looters?"

Wu Zi raised his eyebrows with a smile, then sat up straight and looked straight at Su Mo.

"Speaking of which, I wish I forgot to mention one thing."

"Ok?"

Facing the eyes of the other party, Su Mo said that he was all ears.

"I used to be the leader of the predators anyway."

"I have also been to the base camp, and basically I have no trouble over there."

"But there is a place that even I cannot enter."

"Houshan Factory." It was Qi Ling who suddenly answered.

Qi Ling and Wu Zixiao looked at each other, and their expressions became serious together.

Marauders rely on loot to find supplies.

Their favorite way of enjoying themselves is to kill humans and beasts in the wasteland.

The pursuit of material things is not high.

In summer, I can't wait to become a savage and be free.

As for food, if you can't grab it, you can't find it. Isn't there a renewable resource like human beings?

It can be said that those predators are indeed "no worries about eating and drinking" to some extent.

But since this is the case, what is the factory used to produce?

"You know this better than I do."

"After all, the person in charge trusts you more than me!"

The ending sound was meaningful, and Wu Zi smiled and squeezed his eyes at Qi Ling.

Hearing the implied words, Qi Ling just rolled his eyes: "I wasn't allowed to go in back then."

"You mean that there is a problem with the factory, and it is probably Xue Liang's real headquarters?"

Su Mo interrupted the attitude of the two people who refused to give in.

"Yes!"

Qi Ling nodded: "But in my memory, I have never seen Xue Liang there."

"Me too." Wu Zi laughed and echoed.

At this point, the speculation can't go on.

And the best way to verify it is to...

"I see."

Receiving Su Mo's gaze, Dai Yufeng nodded.

In the process of continuing to pursue Xue Liang, some problems occurred in the camp that had been stable for a long time.

First of all, the construction cost is inexplicably wrong.

Then there are always some safety issues during the construction process.

This morning, the top of the head was gloomy, but fortunately it didn't rain.

When Su Mo came to the wall construction site, he saw a worker being carried back on a stretcher.

"The pile of timber fell and broke the leg."

When the person in charge saw Su Mo, he said timidly, his eyes were very erratic.

"Just say anything."

The person in charge who had been hesitating all this time gritted his teeth and spoke directly after hearing this sentence.

"Boss, I suspect someone is playing tricks in the dark!"
