Webnovel Author In The Apocalypse World-Chapter 301: Building the Breeding Facility

In the small farm, the surrounding area was full of forests, so even if the Starlight Armored Bug dug an underground city, it wouldn’t pose much of a threat.

However, here in the safe zone, things were different.

If the underground space was hollow, buildings above it could easily collapse.

If the ground subsided, not only would it harm the people living above, but it would also damage the Starlight Armored Bug underground.

In short, setting up a Starlight Armored Bug breeding facility would already require a large workforce.

And considering that any glass-related production chains would also depend on manpower, it was clear he would need quite a few people.

When Moon Baein first heard Kim Haru’s idea about the Starlight Armored Bug breeding facility, he was initially incredulous, but then he laughed with delight.

"Mr. Kim, you really live up to your reputation!"

Moon Baein had never imagined that the rare Starlight Armored Bug, which other safe zones treasured, would one day be bred in his own Pyeongseong Safe Zone!

"Is it troublesome?" Kim Haru frowned.

If setting up a breeding facility for Starlight Armored Bug was this complicated, he might have to consider just producing the glass himself.

At worst, he could have the Cryo Wolf act as transporters, and the speed of Greenhouse construction in the safe zone would slow down a bit.

It wouldn’t be a big deal to let the Greenhouse be built slowly and then see the results next winter.

Moon Baein quickly waved his hand. "No, no trouble at all. Don’t worry, I’ll find people to take care of it right away."

The site selection for the Starlight Armored Bug breeding facility couldn’t be done carelessly.

This was a highly classified matter for any safe zone, and Pyeongseong Safe Zone was no exception.

Originally, after discussions, Moon Baein and the team had planned to build this confidential facility in the very center of the central district.

However, that area was already fully occupied by the research institute, leaving no suitable space available.

Furthermore, the breeding facility would produce glass, and the constant transport of glass could easily disturb the strange research materials inside the research institute.

Kim Haru also felt that the location wasn’t ideal. "Starlight Armored Bug don’t like places with too many people. The heavy human presence in the safe zone makes it unsuitable. It’s better to choose somewhere farther outside."

As a result, the final location for the Starlight Armored Bug breeding facility was decided to be in Gokmul County.

Yes, this was the same Gokmul County, the major grain-producing county where Kim Haru had hired his first farm employee, Go Okrim.

"Although half of Gokmul County remains unexplored, it’s a large area, not too far nor too close to the safe zone. Additionally, there are undamaged grain warehouses there. If the breeding facility is built here, we can store the food reserves from the safe zone in these warehouses. Even if we station heavy guards, there will be a reasonable explanation, and no one will think about the Starlight Armored Bug," Moon Baein explained to Kim Haru.

Kim Haru had always agreed with these decisions for the safe zone without much objection.

He was just thinking, "In that case, should we repair the road between Gokmul County and Pyeongseong Safe Zone?"

He remembered the last time he went there with the resource searching team.

The roads were quite wide, but in some places, they had cracked and subsided.

The vehicles bounced severely when driving over them.

If they were only transporting people, it wouldn’t be much of a problem, but transporting glass back and forth would likely cause damage.

"Right now, it’s winter, and the roads are covered with thick ice. It’s not very convenient to repair them, but the ice roads are quite smooth for both sledges and regular vehicles. Though the vehicles can slide, as long as we drive slowly, it should be fine." Moon Baein had considered this too. "Once the ice melts in the spring, we will prioritize the road repairs."

By then, most of the essential buildings within the safe zone would already be completed.

Although sand excavation would still require manpower, they wouldn’t need to allocate workers to clear the ice, freeing up a large portion of workers to focus on road repairs.

Kim Haru nodded.

Alright, as long as they’ve thought of this issue.

Once the plan was set, the necessary manpower began to be gradually mobilized.

The people who would go to Gokmul County to build the Starlight Armored Bug breeding facility were naturally from the safe zone itself, as they had the loyalty to the zone and wouldn’t leak any secrets.

Along with them were members of the Resource Searching Team who had previously been to Gokmul County.

During this time, Kim Haru received the news that the Caeruleus Draco Squad had applied to become part of the Pyeongseong Safe Zone population.

At the time, Kim Haru handed the map of Gokmul County to Jang Dojang and instructing him to give it to the team who were heading there.

This map was drawn by Kim Haru himself based on the system’s map.

Although it didn’t contain detailed information, it clearly marked all the residential areas and road layouts in the part of Gokmul County that Kim Haru had explored.

It was a great help to the team.

The others did not question the source of the map.

After all, Mr. Kim had been to Gokmul County.

Given his impressive abilities, it wasn’t surprising that he could sketch a map after just one visit.

After handing over the map, Kim Haru overheard that the members of the Caeruleus Draco Squad wanted to join the Pyeongseong Safe Zone.

"The Ability Users from the Caeruleus Draco Squad?" Kim Haru was surprised.

He had assumed that after the second wave of refugees from the Bangnang Safe Zone had joined, these people had decided not to.

He didn’t expect them to raise the matter now.
