Wasteland Border Inspector - Chapter 839

Chapter 839: Chapter 275: Arrival at the Fief, Dawn of Dabozhen! (Part 3)

With this curiosity, he made his way to the bottom of the water, and it was just as he expected.

The underwater was pitch black; the once glorious purple glow had long disappeared. Cheng Ye turned on the flashlight on his helmet, illuminating the riverbed.

The remnants of the sponge tissue had been thoroughly scraped away by the cleaning team, leaving no traces that could cause secondary infections.

The entrance to the cave had also changed. Without the protection of the Demon Eye Sponge, a large amount of water flowed in, turning the originally narrow entrance into a huge gap about five or six meters wide.

Cheng Ye swam through the gap, using his Fish Mimic State to explore in the darkness, filled with joy.

This place was very likely an underground space opened by the Ten Thousand Orders Land Conch. After being defeated by Tan Ming, its size had shrunk once, only about one-tenth of its original size.

However, after reaching this level, so many days passed, and it hadn’t shrunk any further, still maintaining its size.

This meant that as long as he had a way to drain the water inside and seal the entrance, it could be restored to its former state.

“The Cotton Room can lock rules, not only blocking the beliefs left by Tan Ming but also isolating the interior, allowing me to use runes inside for renovation, creating a special space. Including resources found later… they can also be used within this underground space without leaking to the outside world.”

“The Rule Eye also allows me to establish rules inside, ensuring the development proceeds as I envision. This is essentially my own secret space. Not bad, really not bad!”

Cheng Ye checked around and surfaced.

Restoring the cave, sealing it, and opening a direct path to the surface was clearly a significant project, and there was no way to mobilize a construction team to join; he could only explore slowly by himself.

At least he needed to master the technology of the Cotton Room first and produce a finished product before he could seal it.

However, Cheng Ye was not in a hurry, as long as the location was at the bottom of the White Water River, it was just a matter of time.

In the future, after implementing the Vital Rune left by Tan Ming, acquiring the characteristic rewards of the Ten Thousand Orders Land Conch, when he could exchange for the Conch, he might be able to further renovate the underground cave.

This was a highly promising development path.

After changing out of the Battle Armor, the fifth batch of people also began to arrive, the crowd grew, filling the town chaotically.

There were voices of discussion everywhere, making people’s heads buzz.

However, despite the chaos, there was no disorder; people were merely discussing with each other, curious about the Wilderness and the world outside the Buffer Zone, and speculating on the future of thriving Dapo Town.

Cheng Ye watched for a while, not rushing to organize anything, at least not until the first three days had passed. Only then would everyone settle down and begin the official building rhythm.

Huang Sheng was already organizing manpower and dividing the area into zones for unified demolition.

Zhu Xiang set up a temporary medical station and unpacked the purchased medical supplies, sorting them out.

Cheng Ye had not taken the three hundred militiamen of Celestial Essence with him when he left, as the community needed an armed force.

However, Li Jie and Chang Kai’s teams were assigned to Wu Zhihong, starting to build the basic police force of Dapo Town.

Since the town only had three thousand people, at most fifty guards were needed to cover patrol and maintain order.

Once everything stabilized, even if the population grew, more guards could be recruited from among the residents.

Everything was in a state of vigorous yet orderly start-up. When the sixth and final batch arrived, Wang Kang got off the car, and Cheng Ye simply became the hands-off manager, handing over all management affairs:

“Kang, don’t rush today, don’t hurry to set up the mobile homes, I also bought a lot of tents, enough for us to last three to five days, distribute them to families first and focus efforts on demolition.”

“Alright, Brother Cheng, you do your thing, I’ll handle it here.” Wang Kang accepted the job, becoming more stable.

Cheng Ye took another stroll around and then eagerly got into the off-road vehicle, heading toward the hydroelectric station.

The materials for the hydroelectric station repair had also been transported nearby.

This was something he emphasized, even arriving a day earlier than the supplies in the town.

When he got to the hydroelectric station, there was indeed a pile of repair materials covered with tarpaulins around it.

Cheng Ye got out of the car, unable to restrain his excitement, punching the air.

The long-awaited day had finally arrived!
