Transmigrated into Another Apocalyptic World (BL)-Chapter 549 - 548: Reaching the second base southwards 5

When Luciel woke up and had breakfast with the others, Samuel and Aldo still hadn’t returned together with Myla.

They only managed to return when almost an hour passed after they had their breakfast.

As soon as they returned, Myla immediately said, "Boss, don’t assign me to watch over them next time. I think I’m patient enough, but watching them repeatedly going through the same thing again and again—that even though I, who was only there to guard, managed to learn it already but they still hadn’t managed to progress much—is tiring and frustrating that I want to come back here already."

It seemed that the people that Aldo and Samuel had to face were even slower than the people that they had managed in the last base that they had been to, as even Myla was already complaining.

Aldo and Samuel also obviously had very tired faces as well as frustrated looks.

Samuel also added tiredly, "Boss, we should have just taken someone from the research center or from the engineering center to manage these things."

Seeing their state, Treyton could only say, "Ok, if we still have missions like this in the future, let’s try to bring someone from the research center or the engineering center. Ok, you guys can go and rest first. Let’s travel after lunch."

It seemed that Treyton felt that they were a bit pitiful, so instead of his original plan of just going out after they came back, he pushed it to a few hours later.

So, since they weren’t leaving yet, Luciel roamed around the base for a bit before returning.

He only looked around for a while, but he quickly assessed the quality of living in the base that they were in.

The base that they were in was really mostly made up of apartment buildings and only had a few spaces that didn’t have buildings.

And even though they have a larger population than the base that they had visited first, the size of their base was actually smaller.

However, the base was indeed a bit wealthier as, even though it was obvious that most people were lacking food, they still had some life in their eyes. So, it means that they could still see a bit of hope in their situation.

Aside from those, he had also seen more people who seemed to be ability users and capable people who were using some weapons to train.

It seems that the base still has a lot of people going out to collect supplies, as he still saw a lot of them training themselves as it seemed that they’re also going out of the base afterwards.

Aside from noticing that the base that they were in was wealthier, Luciel also noticed that the base was really clean even though a lot of people obviously couldn’t afford water to clean themselves and their surroundings.

Because of the contamination of water, it was very hard for ordinary people to actually afford water for daily use, let alone having a lot of water to wash themselves.

So, it’s not surprising that most of those people actually won’t bathe themselves for a long time, as they were saving their water for drinking.

And since they couldn’t even clean themselves properly, they certainly couldn’t afford water to clean their surroundings.

However, he noticed that even though most of the ordinary people who certainly couldn’t afford much were cleaner than expected, their surroundings were also cleaner than most surroundings of other bases.

Luciel continued to observe and when he was about to go back, he asked an elderly woman about it.

The elderly woman said that the leader of the base really likes cleanliness and he won’t allow people to just dirty things around.

Apparently, there was a list of punishments depending on the degree of what the person had done if he dirtied something or didn’t clean his things. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

If the degree is really very high, then the person might even be chased out of their base; that’s why the people were doing their best to listen and clean their areas.

And every two or three weeks, the base would also make sure that everyone would be able to clean themselves up, as the base would provide water for them for free aside from the drinking water that they were distributing.

Even though the water is not a lot, it was still enough for each person to wipe themselves clean with the water and even wash their hair if they were very frugal with the water allotted to them.

Aside from that, those who were in charge of distribution of water were also in charge of checking if the area of each person was really clean before they gave the water that was allotted to them.

And the base would actually hire some people to clean up the public areas every month.

So, the base that they were in is obviously cleaner than other places and also smelled better.

It seemed that having a female leader is really a bit different as most of them could still pay attention to cleanliness—or she was just really a bit paranoid with cleanliness, that’s why she had imposed those rules, as well as making sure that everyone could clean the place that they were living as well as themselves.

Well, having a cleaner environment seemed to also improve the thoughts of those people in the base, as they had more positive thoughts since the base was obviously more peaceful than the base that they had visited before.

Of course, there were still some people who had obviously looked at him with greediness, but they didn’t dare make a move on him when he roamed around, probably because they heard that he’s from another base and was treated as a guest by their leader.

Since he already saw what they could see in the base, he went back to their RV and had lunch before they started driving out of the base.
