Chapter 226: Chapter 201: Diplomacy 2
Bena was understanding. "Mr. Mayor, we’re willing to give you plenty of time to consider. Our shelter is very sincere about establishing diplomatic relations with October Town, and we hope you’ll give our proposal serious thought."
The mayor nodded. "Please give me some time. I will get back to you as soon as possible."
Bena smiled and stood up. "Then I won’t take up any more of your time. I look forward to good news."
With that, Bena left the mayor’s office. He knew the man needed time to weigh the pros and cons.
While waiting for the mayor’s reply, Bena didn’t stay idle.
He explored every corner of October Town, speaking with local merchants and residents to understand their needs and expectations.
His interactions with the locals made Bena even more convinced that establishing diplomatic relations with October Town would be mutually beneficial.
A few days later, the mayor finally gave his answer.
He agreed to establish formal diplomatic relations with the shelter and signed the relevant agreements.
Bena was very satisfied. He knew this would bring more resources and opportunities to the shelter.
After completing his diplomatic mission, Bena immediately returned to the shelter to report his success to Ye Yun.
Ye Yun praised Bena for his success and gave him a generous reward.
Meanwhile, Zhou Mei and her team also concluded their recruitment mission in Little Oasis.
After all, their primary mission in Little Oasis had been recruitment, not investigating the activities of those mysterious people. Without a direct order from the Administrator, Zhou Mei decided it was best not to act on her own initiative.
All three teams soon returned to the shelter.
Ye Yun was quite satisfied with everyone’s performance.
Ye Yun felt that although the mission hadn’t completely uncovered the secrets of Little Oasis, they had successfully recruited some valuable talent, injecting new blood into the shelter’s development.
After listening to the reports from all three teams, Ye Yun began to plan his next move. He knew that as the shelter’s power grew, they would need more resources and talent to sustain its development.
At the same time, he was aware that the situation in the wasteland was growing more complex. Various factions were vying for power in the shadows, and if the shelter was to survive in this environment, it had to constantly grow stronger.
Ye Yun opened the system and began to check the shelter’s stats.
Used Space: 15
Available Space: 0
Food Reserves: 350/300
Freshwater Reserves: 350/300
Power Reserves: 550/500
Medicine: 35/100
Construction Bots: 6/6
Advanced Bionics: 2/2
Bionics: 5/5
Normal Humans: 18/18
Ye Yun noticed that the shelter’s used space had reached its limit, with available space at zero.
’This means we can’t build any new facilities or further increase the shelter’s power.’
He realized this problem had to be solved quickly, or the shelter’s development would be severely limited.
Ye Yun began to consider solutions. He knew there were two ways to expand the shelter’s size: add a new shelter, or expand the current one.
However, both methods had their drawbacks. Adding a new shelter would require more personnel for management and defense, while expanding the current one would demand vast resources and time.
Ye Yun was lost in thought. He needed to weigh the pros and cons to find the most suitable plan.
At that moment, three new mission prompts suddenly popped up from the system.
[Mission 1: Expand the Shelter]
[Mission Description: With the shelter’s growth, its current size is no longer sufficient. Complete the shelter expansion within 15 days to gain a new shelter section.]
[Mission Reward: Random Purple Blueprint x1, Blue Components x200]
[New Mission 2: The Hunt]
[Mission Description: Mutated creatures pose a serious threat to the shelter. Clear out 1,000 small mutated creatures.]
[Objective: Kill 100 small mutated creatures within 10 days.]
[Mission Reward: Random Blue Blueprint x1, Blue Components x50]
[New Mission 3: Recruit an Esper]
[Mission Description: The shelter’s strength depends not only on the number of its members, but also on their individual power. Recruit a powerful Esper to enhance the shelter’s strength!]
[Objective: Establish formal diplomatic relations with any settlement within 15 days.]
[Mission Reward: Random Blue Blueprint x1, Blue Components x150]
Ye Yun looked at the new missions, his eyes filled with thought.
’These three missions are all crucial, directly tied to the shelter’s development and security.’
’Mission One, expanding the shelter, is critical for solving our current space shortage.’
’Mission Two, hunting mutated creatures, is vital for maintaining the safety of the area around the shelter.’
’Mission Three, recruiting an Esper, will significantly boost the shelter’s power.’
Ye Yun decided to act immediately and began assigning the missions.
He assigned Mission One to Zhou Mei and Leo. They had just completed a recruitment mission and were quite familiar with the shelter’s situation.
"Zhou Mei, Leo, you two are in charge of the shelter’s expansion," Ye Yun told them. "We need to solve our space shortage as soon as possible so we can build more facilities."
Zhou Mei and Leo nodded in understanding.
They immediately set to work on the expansion, planning new areas and gathering the necessary materials and personnel.
Ye Yun assigned Mission Two to Lin Hao and Neil. With their extensive experience in the wasteland, they were the best candidates for the hunting mission.
"Lin Hao, Neil, you’re in charge of hunting the mutated creatures," Ye Yun said. "We need to secure the area around the shelter, and this will also let us gather some useful resources."
Lin Hao and Neil nodded. They immediately began their preparations and set out with a team.
Finally, Ye Yun assigned Mission Three to Bena. His extensive diplomatic experience made him the best person for the job.
"Bena, you’re in charge of the mission to recruit an Esper," Ye Yun said. "We need more powerful individuals to join the shelter and increase our strength."
Bena nodded. He set out at once, heading for the various settlements in the wasteland to search for potential Espers.
Under Ye Yun’s direction, the three teams began their respective missions.
Each team had its own objectives and responsibilities. They knew this was not only a test of their individual abilities but also a challenge of their teamwork.
The team led by Zhou Mei and Leo began expanding the shelter.
They planned out new zones, prepared large quantities of building materials, and began constructing new facilities.
Thanks to their efforts, the shelter’s footprint gradually expanded as new facilities like residential areas, training grounds, and laboratories were established.
The team led by Lin Hao and Neil began their hunt in the wasteland.
They used the cover of darkness and the advantages of the terrain to silently approach the lairs of mutated creatures and launch surprise attacks.
Thanks to their seamless coordination, mutated creatures were swiftly killed one after another, given no chance to fight back.
Bena, meanwhile, searched for Espers in the various settlements across the wasteland.
He gathered information through various channels to learn about each settlement and search for potential Espers.
Thanks to Bena’s efforts, his team soon located several Espers. They began making contact, attempting to recruit them to the shelter.
As time went on, all three teams made significant progress.
Zhou Mei and Leo successfully completed the shelter’s expansion, providing more space for its future development.
Lin Hao and Neil killed a large number of mutated creatures, not only ensuring the shelter’s safety but also acquiring useful resources.
Bena also succeeded in recruiting an Esper, an individual of immense power who would be a great asset to the shelter.
Ye Yun was extremely pleased with the performance of all three teams.
He knew that as the shelter continued to grow stronger, it would require even more resources and talent to support its expansion.
He was also keenly aware that the situation in the wasteland was becoming increasingly complex. With various factions maneuvering for dominance, the shelter had to keep growing stronger if it hoped to survive.
