When Gu Tao appeared again, the entire base was stunned, then plunged into a sea of joy.
Mr. Gu is back!
He had brought too many miracles in the past, and although the base could function normally without him, it was all based on the rules established by Gu Tao. Jing Yuan had decent abilities, but, how should it be put... she was only cut out to be a caretaker ruler. If asked to continuously introduce new gameplay and innovations like Gu Tao, she clearly lacked the capacity. Wang Lei was slightly better, but he was an outsider after all; he didn't fully understand many aspects. Thus, during the months of Gu Tao's disappearance, the base's development had virtually stagnated, with only a few prior plans being completed.
