So these boats could only be used twice. After the second trip, they either had to undergo a major overhaul or be scrapped.

Since they had finally managed to make the journey, they had to earn enough this time to make worthwhile.

“Everyone should get some rest! It’ll still take another two days before we arrive,” someone called out to Autumn and the others. “There are hardly any people out there anymore, and nobody’s dumb enough to try robbing anyone. Who’d be that desperate? The second they showed themselves, they’d be dead.”

Autumn smiled. “True enough. Let’s all get some good rest over the next two days, save our energy and get ready for the tough fight ahead.”

“Sounds good.” Beckett nodded. “I’m going to get some sleep first.”

With that, he stood up and headed back to his room.

Leonel also spoke up. “I’m going to organize the accounts.”

“Then I’ll head to my room and sort through the supplies.” Autumn stood up and left as well.

As soon as the three of them were gone, the five assistants visibly relaxed and finally felt like chatting.

“Hey, who do you guys think actually calls the shots at Aurora Base?” one of them asked quietly. “Mr. Marsh, Chief Bauer, and Mr. Wright all look like they’re in charge, but they all seem to listen to Asher.”

“I noticed that too! No matter how big the issue is, Asher is always there, and everyone listens to her opinion.”

“You guys only figured that out now? Let me tell you, Asher’s the uncrowned ruler of Aurora Base! Every one of us is making a living because of her! So you’d better behave yourselves from now on!”

“How do you know that?”

“Don’t ask me how I know. Just do what I say. Once we get to Central Shelter, keep your mouths shut. Whatever Asher tells us to do. we do it. Don’t ask why. Just get it done.”

“Fine, fine. You’re the clever one. We’ll listen to you.”

Meanwhile, the very person they were talking about, Autumn, was inside her storage space… working hard on the farm.

Seriously… why had another plot of black farmland suddenly appeared?

Autumn felt like crying.

Before, every time she stored more things in the storage space and it leveled up, it would only add a little more land

But ever since she had understood the true meaning of her rebirth and the secret behind the storage space’s upgrades, it was as if the storage space had unlocked a new function. As long as she did things that benefited the base and its people, the storage space rewarded her with little bonuses.

Sometimes it gave her a hillside, sometimes a fish pond, sometimes a medicinal herb field. This time, it had rewarded her with a full four-acre plot of rich black farmland.

thadn’t increased the storage duration, but more land was still a good thing.

Autumn could only accept her fate, fire up the farming equipment, and keep planting

This time, she planted medicinal herbs.

She and Leonel had already stockpiled plenty of medicine, but it had only been enough for a little over a hundred people

Now the base had more than eight hundred thousand residents.

Even if only one percent of the population got sick each day, the amount of medicine consumed would still be enormous.

Once the modern medicine ran out, it was gone for good. Nobody could manufacture more arrymore, so they had to conserve it whenever possible.

Medicinal herbs became the better option instead because they could be grown and used without relying on factory production ines.

A couple of days earlier, Autumn had checked the base’s medical clinic and found that it was constantly short on both doctors and medicine, so this time she decided to plant herbs.

Autumn diligently planted medicinal herbs across the newly added black farmland and the newly added hillside.

t didn’t matter whether she recognized the herbs or knew what they were good for. She just kept planting. The doctors had said that even if it was nothing more than a blade of grass, they’d eventually find a use for it.

While Autumn was busy farming like crazy, Central Shelter was enjoying what it thought was its greatest moment.

Outside, the people hoping to get in had already formed a long line.

Many of them balanced tables, iron pots, or wooden crates on their heads to shield themselves from the acid rain, and once they got through it, those same items counted as supplies they could bring into the shelter.

Meanwhile, the people inside Central Shelter stood arrogantly in lavish, gold-trimmed rooms, laughing at the miserable crowd outside. What they didn’t know was that their greatest nemesis, Autumn, was already on her way to Central Shelter.

Can our shelter even hold this many people?” someone asked casually while dressed in an expensive tailored suit and holding a gold-rimmed coffee cup, looking every bit the polished executive. “Central Shelter has always maintained high standards. We don t

ust take in every random nobody.”

“Griffin, are you saying they’re beneath you?” someone sneered. “Most of the people your father has been recruiting lately are exactly the kind of nobodies you’re looking down on.”

The man was Griffin Gound, the only son of Gordon, the nominal leader of Central Shelter.

He was 30 years old, had a very ordinary face, but possessed endless confidence.
