The refugee issue needs to be addressed.
Their Special Affairs Bureau's solution was to dig an underground city beneath a city, thus solving both the defense problem and providing a place to grow food and raise animals.
This task was thus assigned to the group that went on stage.
The people below were naturally assigned most of the tasks and were required to stay at their posts. Huizhou City had put pressure on everyone because the terrifying nature of the Eerie Lord Li Chen was even more terrifying than that of the Evil Cults.
After all, his appearance was Eerie Tide.
Moreover, according to reliable sources, three intelligent Eerie Monsters have appeared in Huizhou City this time, and all of them are at the Calamity Realm. Most people can't believe this news, but it is true.
If what is said is true, once the Eerie Lord leads his Eerie Monsters to invade an outer city, it would require nearly eight to ten Calamity Realm to stop them, and even then, they might not be able to hold out. One can imagine how terrifying that would be.
Raccoon City, which is the closest city to Huizhou City, has dispatched ten Calamity Realm to prevent the Eerie Lord's sudden attack.
This time they were fully prepared and it was impossible for them to be wiped out like Huizhou City.
But miracles can happen even in the most impossible situations.
Therefore, the worst-case scenario has already been discussed.
That means if another outer city falls, even more refugees will flood into the interior. The question is no longer whether the city can withstand the influx, but whether there will be enough food.
Nowadays, no one complains of hunger.
But ordinary people should have also noticed that something was wrong with the market; food was being consumed at an extremely rapid pace, and that would be the true end of Human Race.
Once food becomes an exorbitantly priced commodity.
Is that money still useful?
Can laws and morals still restrain these people who are obsessed with food?
Therefore, no city can be abandoned.
The Human Race had no choice but to hold out to the bitter end, waiting for the call to counterattack.
The meeting ended with sighs and no substantial progress; all that remained were helpless choices.
Su Xian and the others followed the meeting crowd out. Along the way, they noticed that most of the people attending the meeting seemed to be filled with fear and panic.
Not everyone has such an optimistic attitude.
Many of them have even started discussing strategies to stay away from cities on the outskirts.
"That's disgusting..."
At this moment, an indignant voice reached Su Xian and the others' ears. It was Di Li, who had just walked out of the conference room not far away, who spoke.
Looking at her haggard face, Su Zhe opened his mouth but couldn't utter a single word, after all, her city had been destroyed by Chen-ge.
As a former friend of Chen-ge, he was filled with shame and dared not speak to her, or even face her.
However, Di Li was currently showing interest in coming towards them.
They only stopped when they were only a few feet away from each other.
Only when they saw her face so close did they realize that in just a few days, Di Li had become much thinner and her complexion had become much more emaciated. They could even clearly see the bloodshot in her eyes, indicating that she hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Su Zhe bowed his head in apology, "I'm sorry..."
"It was because we failed to bring Li Chen back that the tragedy in Huizhou City occurred."
I'm so sorry! I'm extremely sorry!
Di Li's expression didn't change much. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "No need to apologize. You didn't do these things, and I don't need your apology."
"If apologies were enough, would my deceased family and friends ever come back?"
Su Zhe lowered his head further and further.
Su Xian, standing to the side, frowned and asked, "So, what brings you here today?"
"Did you just come here to cry and complain?"
Di Li said coldly, "I need all of Li Chen's information, including everything that happened in the past."
"I just want to know the reason: why he could kill so many innocent lives without batting an eye, and why he launched the 'Eerie Tide' attack on Huizhou City."
"Does he have to inflict his own suffering on others?"
Su Xian fell silent...
He knew that Di Li wanted to know everything. Having lost her lover and her family, she had become a puppet driven by the will to seek revenge.
Perhaps only after her obsession with killing Li Chen disappears can she return to a normal life.
At this moment, Su Zhe looked up at Di Li and said in a very complicated tone, "I'll give it to you."
Without any conditions, Su Zhe revealed many things he knew.
After getting what she wanted, Di Li left.
Watching Di Li's departing figure, Su Xian said, "There's no need for this... If she continues like this, she'll eventually become a puppet controlled by her obsession with revenge."
What you're doing is wrong.
Su Zhe smiled wryly, "I know, of course I know, but this sense of guilt is suffocating me."
Su Xian sighed. He understood why Su Zhe was in so much pain. He had long regarded Li Chen as his family, and only when a family member did something like this could he, as a relative, feel this sense of guilt.
"Stop helping her. Giving her more information will only bring trouble upon her, and she'll end up like Huizhou City, reduced to ashes."
This is not what Lin Hua wanted to see.
Su Zhe nodded, looking at the night sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window, his thoughts momentarily scattered.
A bleak world.
A castle built of Dark Energy appeared on this scorched earth overrun by Eerie Monsters.
In the castle's main hall.
A throne exuding an aura of Forbidden stood in the center.
Several figures knelt down to support each other.
If you could clearly tell from their masks and figures that these people were the Eighth Seat and Sixth Seats of the God-Binding Cult, they were now sweating profusely and dared not even look directly at the figure on the throne.
And not far from them.
Zai played with the small knife in his hand, while Ling and Cang Yue sat on the tentacles and quietly observed.
Desire then became a guard alongside Jingang, standing watch at the entrance.
"So it was you." Li Chen's nonchalant voice rang out.
The Eighth Seat men didn't dare to breathe loudly. How could they not know that Li Chen was no longer the student they had once tormented, but the Eerie Lord!
One of the Evil Cult members who had come with them had never seen Li Chen before, nor did he have any grudge against him. He met Li Chen's gaze and said, "Eerie Lord, we are apostles sent by the God-Binding Cult. We request your cooperation."
"Although we had a grudge against you a year ago, we are now on the same side. As long as you help our God-Binding Cult, we can get you everything."
"Heh..." Li Chen sneered. How interesting. The God-Binding Cult, which once drove him to the brink of despair, actually dares to seek cooperation with him.
He's probably forgotten why he became like this in the first place, and he actually dared to come right up to him...
