The overall structure of the doomsday bases is similar, and the South City base is no exception in this regard.

The South City Base is a circular fortress, divided into four areas in a circular manner:

Central area, inner area, outer area, and wasteland area.

In addition to the base's protective fence, there are also isolation walls and guard posts between each area.

The wasteland area, as the name suggests, is a large piece of undeveloped wasteland within the base. It can also serve as a buffer zone in case of a zombie attack.

Most people are initially housed in the outer area when they enter the base. Only after they have gained enough points can they rent or buy a house in the inner area.

There are many ways to earn points:

You can accept various tasks and be hired at the base, or exchange your own supplies to obtain points. In addition, points can be transferred voluntarily.

The main channel to enter the inner area is points. In the early stage, most of the residents in the inner area were military dependents of the base.

As time goes by, the inner area gradually becomes a gathering place for powerful groups of people with special abilities.

After all, the psychics are extremely powerful and it is easier for them to accumulate enough points.

If you want to enter the central area, the conditions are much more stringent and have nothing to do with points.

First, only special personnel such as scientists, doctors and their families can enter.

The next group of people are either relatives of military management or other personnel recruited as special cases.

In short, the conditions for entering the central area are only known and decided by the base management, and there are no specific standards disclosed to the public.

Of course, the entire base is under martial law, so there is no need to worry about safety unless you run out on your own.

The management system in the base is also very complete. As long as you abide by the rules, you can file a complaint and apply for protection from the base if your interests are violated.

……

Li Kaiyun's nephew Li Sheng works in the base. He is 27 years old, not a supernatural being, and is currently the head of the central area of ​​the base's security management team.

After Li Kaiyun contacted Li Sheng through the rescue team's satellite phone, Li Sheng made arrangements before they arrived.

Just as they parked the car, a tall, well-dressed and serious young man came forward to greet Li Kaiyun.

It was Li Sheng who, after learning about their experiences on the road, comforted his younger brothers and sisters with a sad expression, and expressed his gratitude to Cheng Jing and others.

Cheng Jing didn't know what Li Kaiyun had told his nephew. Not only did Li Sheng take the recommendation letter from him, he also took them for health monitoring separately.

Finally, they were all arranged to live in the same dormitory building in the central area.

The dormitory has both single rooms and suites. Li Sheng assigned them two- or three-bedroom suites based on the number of people in their group.

Compared with other people who entered the base, the treatment can be described as "rapid advancement".

This is due to the letter of introduction and also to Li Kaiyun.

Of course, it was mainly due to Cheng Jing and his team. Before they arrived at the base, the information had probably been discovered and reported.

Just as Li Kaiyun said, a team of eight well-trained and experienced psychics would be popular in any base.

After spending some time together, the silent Xiaoya has become familiar with Li Shuhui and no longer intends to be a light bulb for Huang Qian and Lu Ningzhou.

So after obtaining the consent of "both parents", the two little girls lived together so that they could take care of each other and talk to each other in daily life.

Regarding Xiaoya, when Li Shuhui proposed to live with Xiaoya, Cheng Jing told the three members of the Li family the truth.

Like everyone else, Li Kaiyun did not deny Xiaoya's mistakes, but was willing to accept and guide her.

At the same time, they finally understood why Xiaoya was so silent among a group of lively people. Guilt made her feel inferior, and this inferiority complex would most likely accompany her for the rest of her life.

In this way, Cheng Jing was with Jiang Nian, Huang Qian was with Lu Ningzhou, Zhao Lei was with Liao Yu, Jian Cheng, Tang Yi and Zhou Rongbin were together, and Xiaoya was with Li Shuhui's family.

The dormitories are fully equipped with basic living supplies, but the use of electricity and water in the entire base is restricted.

After Li Sheng's popularization, everyone learned:

In the entire base, only the research institutes in the central area, hospitals and clinics in each district, and other special department offices will have 24-hour power supply.

In other places, each household can only use electricity for 4 hours a day, and the power of electricity used in people's homes cannot exceed watts.

So far, the base’s electricity is not available for purchase.

You can decide when to use electricity. The time is cleared once a day and will not be retained or added up. When the daily electricity usage time is up, the base's monitoring system will automatically cut off the power.

If there are people with electrical energy attributes, they can use specially modified batteries to convert and use them according to their own strength, as well as buy and sell them, and the base will not interfere.

As for water use, each person can collect 3 liters of the highest quality drinking water and 20 liters of ordinary quality domestic water every day at the designated water room in each district.

If you exceed the quota, you need to pay points to purchase.

In addition, there are running water pipes in the non-prefabricated dormitories in the inner and central areas, and residents can charge water cards to enjoy free use of domestic water.

The points required vary depending on the water quality level.

Of course, in addition to the base water room, people can also trade with those water-related mutants.

Water and electricity are scarce in the base as a whole, which is why 9 out of ten water and electricity-related psychics are rich in the apocalypse.

"..."

After assigning them dormitories and informing them of the basic rules of the base, Li Sheng left each of them a dinner and left, saying that he would bring them some supplies tomorrow.

Of course, it was his personal stock, and not every survivor who entered the base had it.

After eating, Jiang Nian distributed the remaining supplies in the car to everyone equally.

Cheng Jing gave Li Kaiyun another cigarette, and no one had any objections.

Originally, they didn't need Li Sheng to give them supplies, but it was better not to be too high-profile when they first arrived.

Moreover, the other party did this to thank them for taking care of their uncle and younger brothers and sisters, as a way of repaying a favor.

They entered the base near dusk, and by the time everyone had moved their luggage and supplies to the dormitory, settled them in, showered, and cleaned up, it was already the second half of the night.

Although the team had a relatively smooth journey to the base, everyone was on edge.

Now that we have arrived at the base and settled in the dormitory in the central area, everyone subconsciously relaxes and the feeling of fatigue appears belatedly.

Jiang Nian and Cheng Jing were assigned a small two-bedroom apartment:

The living room and dining room are both shared, with a bedroom, a utility room which also serves as a home warehouse, a bathroom and a small kitchen. It looks quite presentable after being tidied up.

"I'm so tired... Let's just leave it at that for now. We'll continue tomorrow and exchange some of the supplies we don't need for points..."

Lying on the bed, Jiang Nian talked to Cheng Jing about some small plans for the future, and his voice gradually became lower.

Cheng Jing patted him on the back:

"Okay, go to bed. It's late."

They will live here for a long time, so the place will be renovated according to their needs.

The first thing was that the doors and windows had to be reinforced again, the base was safe, the central area was even safer, but if they wanted to be more secure they had to do it themselves.

You also need to add some furniture and other things. The place can be small, but the comfort level must be good.

There is no free lunch in the world. The management of the South City base will arrange them in the central area and will definitely negotiate terms with them.

But before that they can sleep peacefully and talk about it later.
