Originally, this base was quite stable. With his and Jin Yuan's governance, plus those ability users, safety wasn't an issue. And for at least a year, they wouldn't have to worry about food and drink.

And after a year? Hong Li would definitely have started vigorously developing planting. Hong Li couldn't guarantee they'd eat well, but he was confident he could feed everyone in the base.

But now, the base's ability users were either killed by Li Chenzhou or had entered the war fortress, leaving with him. The entire base no longer had a single ability user.

In addition, the managers were either dead or gone. The chemical plant base was already leaderless. Now that zombies had appeared in the base, it was basically finished.

Hong Li knew that Li Chenzhou didn't need to pay attention to the survivors who were being held hostage, because no matter how tightly they were held, Li Chenzhou could teleport them all out.

After all, the war fortress was above the base, and all the survivors belonging to the small world were within the teleportation range. But Li Chenzhou didn't do that; instead, he issued an ultimatum.

Later, when shooting those survivors who refused to give up, Li Chenzhou even had Xiao Qing deliberately shoot them in the heart instead of the head. That way, all those killed by the beam guns would turn into zombies.

In other words, the current widespread chaos in the base below was deliberately created by Li Chenzhou, but Hong Li couldn't blame Li Chenzhou, because he had indeed given those survivors a chance.

Hong Li also knew that Li Chenzhou was doing this to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, to show the surrounding bases. With the chemical plant base in this state, the survivors inside would definitely not stay here any longer. They would leave and seek refuge with other bases.

And because of Li Chenzhou's existence, those survivors would definitely not go to the prison or the war reserve depot, or the bases supported by Li Chenzhou, such as Wu Village. They would seek out those bases that had no connection to Li Chenzhou, those established by survivors who had escaped the city!

In this way, the events at the chemical plant base would spread quickly, and those bases that had not had contact with Li Chenzhou would also learn about this young man who both saved and killed people, and seemed ruthless.

And in three days, those bases would definitely send people to the assembly point to see who Li Chenzhou was, which would greatly benefit Li Chenzhou.

Moreover, when Li Chenzhou wanted to merge the surrounding bases, even if someone was unwilling, they would definitely leave silently and not provoke Li Chenzhou to his face, especially after seeing the war fortress.

With such a powerful weapon, plus its controller being a reckless guy who could kill hundreds or thousands of people without hesitation, who would be stupid enough to offend him!

Then, those who were willing would join, and those who were unwilling would leave, and everyone would live in peace. This might be the effect Li Chenzhou wanted!

"Hong Li, you already know how to operate the war fortress, right?"

Li Chenzhou stopped discussing the chemical plant base and turned to Hong Li and said:

"First, go to the city and collect all the supplies you need. Then, wait for me above the urban village leading to Wu Village. Remember to raise the fortress high and hide in the clouds so you won't be seen.

Three days later, when I tell you to come down, bring the war fortress down, and be ready to receive survivors. Remember, the dormitory buildings in the small world should be as tall as possible, because at least half of the survivors around Qing City will be living here!"

"Okay! Don't worry, I will definitely build this place well!"

Hong Li nodded, then asked:

"By the way, you said that this small world has a boundary, which should be the sea, so... can we raise some marine life in the sea?"

"Of course!"

Li Chenzhou said:

"Anyway, you have three days. After you collect enough resources in the city, you can drive the war fortress to the seaside and catch some marine life and throw it into the sea. Don't worry, they are also restricted by the boundary and can't run away.

In addition to marine life, you can also raise freshwater creatures. Just choose a location in the small world and turn it into a lake. As for how to operate it, you can ask Xiao Qing!"

Changing the terrain of the small world, turning plains or mountains into lakes, is possible, but it requires Killing Points. In short, as long as you have enough Killing Points, you can operate the small world as you like.

And Li Chenzhou would definitely not be stingy with this war fortress. This was his reward for Hong Li's persistence back then.

In Li Chenzhou's view, Hong Li's persistence was actually more difficult than death. Dying is actually very easy, just a moment's work, but being nailed there, the flesh of the body being cut off raw, and crawling with maggots, this kind of pain is not something ordinary people can endure.

Li Chenzhou even wondered if he could have persisted if he had been in that situation!

Therefore, no matter what Hong Li wanted, Li Chenzhou would not be stingy, especially since he was not short of Killing Points now, and no matter how much the small world of a war fortress was transformed, a million or two Killing Points would be enough. After all, how much does a war fortress cost? This decoration is more expensive than the house.

"Okay! I will study it carefully. If the sea can be utilized, then our small world can accommodate more survivors!"

Hong Li no longer mentioned the chemical plant base. Now that he had left, that place had nothing to do with him anymore. Although there were still many people he knew there, in the future, this small world, that is, the Qing City base, would be his home, and the others, the past was the past.

Moreover, Hong Li was very confident in the construction of the small world, because it was an independent world that would not be affected by the outside world, and he could operate it at will. If the mutated beasts were not too fierce, he even wanted to raise some mutated beasts in the mountains.

Now that he thought about it, it was better to raise aquatic creatures with a lower degree of mutation. Moreover, the mountains could not be wasted, and the houses could be built on the mountains, and the plains below could be used for planting as much as possible, which would kill two birds with one stone.

The houses on the mountains had a good view and could directly see the sea. Although travel might be a little inconvenient, it was the end of the world now, and even ordinary people had a certain degree of physical enhancement, so climbing a mountain was nothing!

In this way, the remaining grassland could be used as farmland, which could produce more crops and feed more survivors!

Looking at his small world, Hong Li's heart was filled with hope for the future for the first time...
