Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 721: Let’s go together at 386

Not only did Deng Hong and his cohort seize the opportunity early, many others who had been watching from the sidelines also rushed over after hearing the news, eager to join the Hope Battle Group.

The people coming to seek refuge were a mixed bag of skills, but Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang didn’t mind. They first registered these newcomers and then gradually integrated them based on their abilities.

Deng Hong and Wan Hao had both been captains under Ji Chengtian, each commanding a thousand men. Therefore, Bai Zhengli simply made them captains of the fifth and sixth combat teams. Deng Hong was, in comparison to Meng Ping, rather impulsive, so Meng Ping was made the captain and Deng Hong his deputy.

Deng Hong felt unwilling to accept this, but he had changed a lot these past days. Although he was still unhappy with Meng Ping, his previous jealousy and murderous intent had diminished, and he had become much calmer. He dared not complain about Bai Zhengli’s decision, so he privately challenged Meng Ping to a fight. It was a fierce battle, but after getting knocked down by Meng Ping due to his impulsiveness, he finally fully acknowledged Meng Ping’s leadership.

Wan Hao and Liu Yue’s positions remained unchanged. Wan Hao had always been more composed than Liu Yue, who was more impulsive. Fortunately, Liu Yue respected Wan Hao. Seeing that Bai Zhengli hadn’t disbanded their teams and had instead made them the sixth combat team, Liu Yue and Wan Hao held a high level of respect for Bai Zhengli. They believed that he was not only powerful but also had a magnanimity that was uncommon, far superior to Ji Chengtian.

Besides them, other superpower users who came seeking refuge were also integrated gradually. Eventually, the Hope Battle Group gained the seventh to tenth combat teams, with capable leaders appointed as captains.

As the integration of the combat teams was nearing its end, new factories, schools, hospitals, and research institutes were also established. Previously, it would have been impossible to accomplish all this in a short time, but now with the assistance of superpower users, these facilities were built within just a few days.

Originally, under Ji Chengtian’s management, Chengtian Base had become increasingly polarized between ordinary people and superpower users, casting a gloomy pall overall. Both ordinary people and superpower users were losing hope. One lived in fear, the other aimlessly, taking life one day at a time.

When the Hope Battle Group first took over the Base, ordinary people, apart from cursing Ji Chengtian for getting what he deserved, had little good will toward the new leadership, their expectations long since worn away. But as new base rules were posted, recruitment notices were published, and facilities like factories, hospitals, and schools were established, hope started to blossom in their hearts, reanimating what was nearly numb.

The entire Base seemed to gradually regain its vitality, becoming thriving and prosperous.

However, the equipment needed for the factories, research institutes, and hospitals was still lacking and had to be obtained as soon as possible.

Bai Zhengli and Fang Jintang placed great emphasis on this matter. Fortunately, there were hospitals and research institutes in the city. If they could get inside, they would surely be able to acquire the necessary equipment. As for the factories, there was an industrial zone near the city, which housed various factories; they could likely find the processing equipment there.

After discussing with others, Bai Zhengli initially planned to assign this task to Bai Ye and the others. However, the newly joined captains of the six combat teams all showed interest, even proactively volunteering to Bai Zhengli to take on these missions.

Bai Zhengli was hesitant at first, but after a glance from Bai Ye, he suddenly heard a voice in his mind, "Let them do it. These people have just joined and are probably eager to prove themselves. Let them try and demonstrate their strength."

Bai Zhengli thought it made sense and agreed. He dispatched the six combat teams; four teams were responsible for entering the city to search for the equipment they needed, while the other two headed to the industrial zone near the city. However, to avoid danger on their way, he specifically assigned Fang Yuyang to lead a combat support group.

Fang Yuyang, capable of flying with Wujin, was not much of a worry for Fang Yuxin. What concerned her more was a mountain range not far from the Base.

This mountain range was covered by dense forests, with the possibility of harboring various mutant plants, which greatly interested her. Although her powers were already strong, if she could tame those mutant plants, it would not only enhance her abilities but many of these plants could have a range of extraordinary uses! Qian Sen and the others needed a variety of mutant plants for their research.
