Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 796 - 422 The sun sets in the west_2

From that moment, her fate had already become completely different. Even if the Market Base resembled the one in her past life, it was no longer the place that caused her so much pain.

With a confident smile, Fang Yuxin firmly grasped Bai Ye’s hand, and the three of them disguised themselves as superpower users from other regions, infiltrating the Market Base. Although the Market Base had developed into a medium-sized base, it still couldn’t compare to the Beishi Base. The Beishi Base had Zhao Qiankun as an anomaly, who had produced many devices surpassing current technology through his research institute, leading to rapid development.

However, upon entering the Market Base, the three felt a faint sense of decline. Although this base now had blood test strips, it lacked communicators and instruments to detect superpowers. The streets were lined with various shops, but due to the shortage of grain in the base, these shops were hardly visited.

Furthermore, the base housed a large number of Ordinary People, occasionally seen on the streets, all looking sickly and malnourished, clearly from prolonged hunger. Superpower users were slightly better off but still did not live well.

Fang Yuxin deliberately released her Spiritual Sense, exploring the farms within the base. Upon examination, she discovered that the farms were well protected, with greenhouses and Wood Element Superpower Users overseeing crop growth. If any crops showed poor growth, superpowers were used to stimulate them.

Clearly, the people in the base were doing their utmost to cultivate grain, not without effort. Unfortunately, the population was too large, while arable land was scarce. Even Wood Element Superpower Users couldn’t continuously use their powers to ripen grains. If this continued, the base might face chaos before anyone starved.

Yet, given the dire situation, judging Qiu Yiming’s decision to leave the Market Base for Beishi Base was complicated. He led away a large number of superpower users, weakening the base’s defensive power, but it also reduced the number of mouths to feed, somewhat alleviating the base’s burden.

After touring the base, unable to find accommodation due to harsh conditions even worse than Beishi Base, they found Fang Family’s villa unoccupied, protected by a Formation that no one could breach.

Recalling the grain in the warehouse, Fang Yuxin set a small Barrier and said to Fang Yuyang and Bai Ye, "I still have quite a bit of grain, and I plan to sell it to them. What do you think?"

This grain was collected from the warehouse of the Food Trading City, and she held a considerable amount. Despite joining the Hope Battle Group and managing logistics, she hadn’t shared much of it, not out of stinginess, but because at first, everyone was wary, and showing too much generosity might have led others to take advantage of them.

Later in Long Province, a major grain-producing area with ample reserves even during the apocalypse, they took over the base and it continued to develop steadily. Farms and ranches consistently yielded produce, so there was no urgent need for her grain.

Now, it seemed the grain she collected from the Market’s Food Trading City should be distributed to the survivors of the Market Base.

Of course, giving it away for free was not an option—not due to stinginess, but because doing so might lead to misunderstandings among the people here.

Fang Yuyang and Bai Ye had no objections; both knew Hope Base’s situation and recognized that the grain was desperately needed by the Market Base’s people.

Thus, Bai Ye said, holding Fang Yuxin’s hand, "The people here desperately need grain. Since you’re willing to share it, do it as you see fit; I support your decision." Bai Ye would always support Fang Yuxin’s choices. Besides, the grain was originally hers.

Fang Yuyang nodded and suggested, "Let’s find a truck first, load the grain, and pretend we’re merchants from out of town."

It was a good idea; with communications between bases severed due to the apocalypse, if they did this, no one would suspect they materialized from nowhere.

They quickly set out from the base to find a cargo truck in the city. As they left, Fang Yuxin couldn’t help but wish she’d stored a large truck among her supplies given how many things she had amassed, but now she needed to find one anew.

Meanwhile, high-ranking officials at the Market Base gathered to discuss solutions to the ongoing grain crisis.

Originally, they presumed that the neighboring city, known for grain production, had substantial reserves. However, when they sent people to purchase grain, they were fobbed off with merely a ton, far from sufficient for the tens of thousands of people in the base.

Yet, with no more grain provided and no other options, they couldn’t just lead raids. To worsen the situation, the Qiu Family left with thousands, significantly reducing the base’s strength!
