Chapter 27 Taking the Seeds

"Take the seeds?"

The bearded man frowned, then looked at the phone in the young man's hand. After just one glance, his expression changed. Even if he couldn't breathe the air inside, at least he could see the environment.

Moreover, the bearded man was sure that the video was real and not a fake. First, there was no time. Second, there were no conditions. Third... there was no need at all!

Especially in the video, he could clearly see the ecstatic expressions of the other survivors. They weren't actors, and the bearded man and the others knew very well that many of these people had temporarily changed their minds because of Hongli.

So there was definitely no conspiracy in the middle. And to make these people familiar with the script in such a short period of time and act together to deceive them was simply impossible. Moreover, from their expressions, it could be seen that their reactions were genuine.

Then, this could prove that the video he saw was also real, and that the grassland surrounded by mountains and seas really existed!

The people around the bearded man also crowded around to watch the video. In addition, the other survivors who entered the small world had also taken videos to varying degrees. At this time, they all ran to the other survivors, showing them the videos in their hands, proving to them that their choice was absolutely correct.

In an instant, many people saw the video. Subsequently, the news that the big guy was called a War Fortress, not only possessed powerful defense and attack capabilities, but also had a huge small world inside where people could live without worry, spread throughout the base.

Watching those survivors happily showing off to others, Hongli gently shook his head. Only then did he realize that these people's actions might not be appropriate. As the saying goes, wealth should not be flaunted, especially in this post-apocalyptic world. The attraction of a small world away from zombies where one could live in peace, to others, was undoubtedly more tempting than millions in cash in a normal world!

Their behavior would surely arouse the jealousy of other survivors. In this world without any constraints, no one could guarantee what those survivors would do. Once a conflict occurred, it could very likely trigger a full-scale chaos in the base.

However, Hongli raised his head and looked at the War Fortress floating just above him, and immediately felt a lot more at ease. Li Chenzhou must have thought of their situation. With him here, he didn't need to worry at all.

Thus, Hongli led several of his confidants—that is, those who had been locked up with him and finally rescued by Li Chenzhou. Under Li Chenzhou's potions, these people had also completely recovered their health.

However, because he hadn't had time to ask Hongli about these people's abilities and loyalty, Li Chenzhou didn't give them evolution potions!

He led his confidants directly to the place where he stored the seeds. Because Hongli valued these seeds, he had specially found a place to store them, while Wang Zifeng was too busy controlling the base and didn't have time to pay attention to them.

No one stopped Hongli and his group. One reason was that everyone was frantically rushing to grab a spot to watch the video, and the other was that Hongli still had a good reputation in this base, and those who followed him had previously held certain positions in the base and belonged to the management, so naturally no one would be so blind as to stop them.

"It's right here!"

When he arrived at the place where he stored the seeds, Hongli pointed to the room that was used as a warehouse.

"Are these all of them?"

Li Chenzhou teleported down in an instant, looking at the fully stacked warehouse and asking.

"Yes! Take them all away!"

Hongli nodded. Then, the people behind him prepared to step forward.

"No need to be so troublesome!"

Li Chenzhou smiled, then stepped forward and waved his hand. The originally full warehouse was instantly emptied. All the seeds here had been teleported to the War Fortress!

"..."

Seeing this situation, Hongli and his subordinates were all speechless. If you had said you could do this earlier, we wouldn't have needed to come down, right?

"Can we use this teleportation ability when we search for resources in the city?"

Hongli looked at Li Chenzhou and asked.

"Of course!"

Li Chenzhou nodded:

"But each teleportation will have a certain cost. If it's ordinary food or something, it's best to move it to the entrance first, and then teleport it, that would be better!"

The teleportation of the War Fortress was divided into two types. One was internal teleportation, which meant first entering the teleportation hall at the entrance of the War Fortress, and then teleporting to other places, or teleporting from inside the War Fortress to the small world or other places. This was internal teleportation.

Outside the War Fortress, but within the protective range of the War Fortress's energy shield, teleportation was also possible, just like Li Chenzhou was doing now. This was external teleportation, which consumed more energy, even a hundred times more than internal teleportation.

Because internal teleportation took place inside the War Fortress's internal space, this kind of space conversion was very easy, and the consumption was minimal, with three or four teleportations only costing one Sha Lu point.

However, teleporting directly from the outside to the inside of the War Fortress required breaking through space, which consumed a lot more energy. If it was only used to teleport a bag of instant noodles, the consumption itself would exceed the value of the teleported item.

It was a bit like the difference between traveling domestically and traveling abroad. Domestically, you can basically go anywhere without any restrictions, but going abroad requires a lot more procedures such as passports and visas.

"Is there anything else you want to take?"

After teleporting the seeds, Li Chenzhou asked.

"No, the rest can be collected in the city. I'm just worried that I won't be able to find these seeds again!"

Hongli shook his head.

"Then let's go back!"

Li Chenzhou said.

"Okay!"

Hongli nodded, immediately leading his subordinates directly into the War Fortress via teleportation. Then, he used the War Fortress's loudspeaker to say to the survivors below:

"Alright, everyone, get ready to return to the team. We are going to the city to collect resources and build our home!"

Hearing Hongli's voice, those survivors who had come down to show off all looked up at the War Fortress above their heads, and then said to the survivors around them:

"Okay, we're going back. You've all seen it, it's a grassland there now. We still have to build our city there. Of course, the leader said that it can be built automatically. We just need to plan the layout, and the city will rise from the ground immediately. We just need to arrange the inside."

"Don't go, take me with you! I wanted to go over there in the first place, but I was delayed by taking a shit!"

Hearing that they were leaving, the surrounding survivors immediately became anxious, hurriedly reaching out to grab those survivors, and started making all kinds of excuses...
