Chapter 159: Sweetheart Base Chapter 159: Sweetheart Base “Then those seeds you gave… Won’t Apple Base be able to grow vegetables and fruits without pollutants?”
“Theoretically, yes,” Su Yinhe nodded.
“What do you mean, ‘theoretically’?” Lin Murong was a bit slow.
“There might still be accidents,” Chi Yan added casually.
“Then we’ll just have to go check it out sometime. Hehehehe… I want to see if they can actually grow them.” Lin Murong rubbed his little hands together, laughing slyly.
“Galaxy, I thought you wouldn’t care,” Lin Murong said, seeing the group of children and feeling somewhat sympathetic.
But he was hard-hearted.
He was someone who had fought through the apocalypse for ten years and had seen too many pitiful people.
There was sympathy, but it was limited.
At first, when he saw those children, he was worried Su Yinhe would soften.
Possibly buying that… what? Apples.
But he had been in the supermarket for quite a long time.
He never saw anyone buying any fruit.
Even at Sun Base, even the rich women wouldn’t bother buying any fruit.
They preferred to stockpile food.
If Su Yinhe really bought that… what? Fruit, then they would have to eat it.
How could they possibly consume so much?
Luckily, Galaxy didn’t agree.
But he saw that Galaxy was a bit disappointed.
He was even thinking about how to console Galaxy with Chi Yan later on.
Turned out the two of them had done so much without him knowing.
Maybe he was just too dumb.
He truly hadn’t noticed anything.
Lin Murong felt very ashamed.
“Next time, definitely count me in. I can help you guys dig,” he said.
While he might not be smart, he was really good at digging.
That awkward silence in the air…
“Cough cough cough, let me see, where’s the next stop?”
The next stop was chosen by Su Yinhe himself.
He picked one with a peculiar name.
“Sweetheart Base?” Lin Murong was stunned when he learned about their next destination.
What kind of base was that?
Just from the name, it didn’t sound serious.
Wait, his memory was good, so how could he not remember this base? Such a unique base, he would definitely remember if he had heard of it.
“Brother Chi, do you remember it?”
Chi Yan shook his head.
He didn’t know either.
“It’s a small base, hmm… even smaller than Apple Base,” Su Yinhe said, looking at the light spot on the tablet.
“Must be newly built,” Chi Yan spoke indifferently.
“Another privately established base, didn’t realize so many impressive people are out there,” Lin Murong’s eyes sparkled, thinking that Lin Musen and his apple trees were already impressive, but there was yet another impressive person.
Wonder what has mutated this time.
“Sweetheart, could it be that dolls have mutated?”
Su Yinhe fell silent again and when he spoke next, his tone seemed a bit floaty.
“Not all mutations. Maybe the person who built the base is a young girl. Or perhaps, has a young girl’s heart?”
“Why can’t someone with second-grade syndrome build an Ultraman Base,” said Lin Murong, filled with disappointment.
“Hey, Brother Chi, do you like Ultraman or not? Which one do you like… Aaargh! Help!”
Ten minutes later, Chi Yan expressionlessly sprayed alcohol on his hands.
“Do you think you’re a bit too brutal?” Su Yinhe asked, pointing his finger a bit.
Lin Murong was just a bit thoughtless with his words, right? He only mentioned Ultraman.
Didn’t need to be so…
“Probably not. I was just sparring with him,” Chi Yan smiled faintly, putting away the alcohol.
“Doesn’t feel like anyone’s normal anymore.”
Sweetheart Base isn’t like Apple Base, surrounded by loess.
Around Sweetheart Base, all you see are densely packed trees and grass that blot out the sun.
The supermarket had just landed and crushed a bunch of plants.
The next second, it was tangled up by those plants.
It was as if her supermarket had suddenly gained a thick, green coat.
“With it , can anyone actually find it?” Lin Murong poked outside with a broomstick.
The supermarket was tightly wrapped by plants, a sea of green as far as the eye could see.
Forget shopping, you couldn’t even spot the supermarket.
But, it’s so large, a glance still reveals something’s off.
You can tell, beneath all those plants, there’s a building.
But surely, no idiot would risk getting whipped by those plants to come pull them off.
Su Yinhe silently moved the supermarket to another location.
Closer to Sweetheart Base.
Just about a dozen meters away, I guess.
Once the supermarket landed, it was entangled by various plants again.
Lin Murong: “Doesn’t Sweetheart Base send anyone to clear the vegetation at the entrance?”
It’s not like Sun Base after all.
But it might be because they have fewer people, private bases are usually more chaotic than larger ones.
People are scarce, probably too busy to clear the outside.
Because inside the base might have growths too.
Sometimes, they can hardly keep the inside clean, let alone the outside.
But really, they have too few people.
Aren’t there guards on the walls?
How does such a huge supermarket appear out of nowhere without anyone noticing something abnormal?
Su Yinhe frowned as she looked at the scenery outside.
In this state, it’d be odd if customers came.
The gates of Sweetheart Base were tightly entangled by mutated plants.
She felt that people from Sweetheart Base probably couldn’t even get out.
“Let’s take some stuff and try to set up shop inside Sweetheart Base,” Su Yinhe pondered her small business.
“Yeah, yeah, let’s go together.” Lin Murong also wished to see new faces.
He liked to talk, but Chi Yan wasn’t the talkative type—he’d only annoyed Chi Yan a couple of times before getting ditched.
Once Su Yinhe closed her room door, it stayed shut for the whole day.
Though melodramas were fun to watch, he felt that doing business was a bit more interesting.
Chi Yan naturally agreed without conditions.
Su Yinhe packed a lot of things into her space and tidied up, then the three of them set off.
First, they dealt with the plants outside the supermarket entrance.
Lin Murong was about to summon Ultraman… ah, no, use his superpower to kill those mutated plants.
Chi Yan then gave him a look as if he were an idiot and created a huge bubble made of water.
It enclosed all three of them.
And just like that, they walked out, and those mutated plants outside didn’t attack them.
Lin Murong cracked up.
“Chi Yan, if you had this skill, why did you make me clear the mutated plants all the way when we descended the mountain?!”
Back then, as they descended the mountain, he was up front clearing the mutated plants while Chi Yan, like some entitled young master, slowly followed the path he cleared.
Even though he was compensated.
But Lin Murong was seriously annoyed.
With such abilities, why not come down directly.
