Chapter 210
Hayley honestly couldn’t Wait for these two to hurry up and get out of her sight.
Her little performance instantly boosted her popularity. Everyone felt that she was incredibly generous
The moment the two walked away, a series of alerts rang through Hayley’s mind.
Ding! [Six new residents added!
[Reward: 600 points!
(Reward: Resident bonus attribute! Strength increased!
[Reward: 10% loyalty boost. Current loyalty: 70%!]
Hayley felt her muscles tighten with a fresh surge of power.
The group that stayed didn’t just give her a strength-enhanced Gifted. They also contributed several additional special attributes.
Megan, Otis, and the others had all worked at a pharmaceutical company. Three of them had medical degrees, instantly filling one of Haylight Base’s biggest gaps: trained medical staff.
Hayley was more than satisfied with this batch of new people.
She had Anthony take them around to learn how things worked in Haylight Base.
Then, she went to find Cyril.
“Let’s go. I brought back everything from your lab.”
Cyril stared at her, eyes widened.
Half an hour later, Hayley unloaded every single piece of equipment from Cyril’s research institute.
The researchers stared at their old gear like they were seeing ghosts.
They never thought they would touch their own instruments again. They had assumed the apocalypse had cut them off from
their life’s work forever.
Hayley didn’t just give them survival. She gave them dignity, hope, and the chance to continue their life’s calling.
Many of them teared up on the spot.
Hayley had brought back not only computers and machines, but also the supplies and raw materials they had stored before everything collapsed.
With this, they could finally build the polyner greenhouses.
“Ms. Reid! We’ll get the greenhouses done as fast as we can!”
“Good. The sooner, the better.”
The cold snap was coming.
Three days passed in a blink.
Meanwhile, at Base Ki…
The young man and woman, exhausted from two days of walking and one full day of quarantine inspections, finally reached the

front of the line. They were moments away from entering Base K1.
“We’re finally getting into Base K1!”
“There are so many people here! Look, real soldiers! This place is so organized!”
“Yeah, it’s way more official than that Haylight Base!”
The pair buzzed with excitement.
A man in a gray shirt and glasses behind them leaned forward. “What’s this Haylight Base you’re talking about? I’ve never heard of that one.”
The girl turned around, speaking happily to the only person who had been friendly enough to chat with them.
“Haylight Base is where we were before. Their people rescued us from the city. Most of our group stayed there, but we wanted to come to Base K1 since their base was so small, and they expected everyone to work.”
“Oh?” The man in glasses nodded. “What kind of work?”
“They wanted us to farm and raise pigs! They had tons of pigs. They actually wanted us to feed them! And even little kids have to work. If they don’t work, they don’t get food!”
The man in glasses stared at her, as if she were describing a mythical treasure.
“You agree that it’s crazy, right?”
The man came back to his senses and looked at the woman blankly, asking, “A-Are you telling me that place is paradise?”
The girl froze.
Right then, they passed the final security gate, stepped through an X-ray scan, and finally saw the legendary Base K1 with their own eyes.
