In every region, research on food improvement was given the highest priority. Perhaps ordinary people were unable to understand more, but the leaders of the major underground towns were clearer than anyone else.
This winter, on the surface above, there had already been three rounds of extinction-level "sweep" operations.
Now, on the surface, not to mention food, maybe there wasn't even grass left, let alone living organisms.
The surface had already become unsuitable for human habitation.
Yet, underground, people were still being kept in the dark, oblivious to all of this. Many still harbored fantasies that one day, after the dangers on the surface were eliminated, everyone could return to their once home to live.
In reality, that possibility no longer existed.
