"I see... No wonder the officials are so active in sending people to clean up Ash Domain everywhere... Because after Ash Domain solidifies, it will become a scourge that cannot be completely solved. It will not only threaten people's life safety, but also compress the living space of mankind. If Solidified Ash Domain is everywhere in the real world, it is estimated that mankind will be extinct."

After listening to Chu Wei's detailed explanation, Wang Zhifan couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart. This time he truly understood how severe the challenges facing mankind in this world are.

Although the Ash Domain invasion is not a super natural disaster that can completely wipe out mankind in a short period of time, this type of blunt knife cutting is really uncomfortable. It is almost certain that if Solidified Ash Domain cannot find a real solution, its existence in the real world will increase. One day, humans will have to survive in Solidified Ash Domain, and then it will probably be a countdown to the demise of the entire human civilization.

After communicating with Chu Wei, Wang Zhifan continued to cooperate with her to clean up the Ash Domain that had been solidified in the real world. Then the two of them walked down the barren mountain and found A wide "river" appeared around the mountain. The original small lake had completely disappeared, and the small canoe they had previously taken was also missing. Fortunately, they found the Administration car outside the newly formed river.

"Awei, look, the gray fog just now is completely gone. People who have never been to this place will definitely not be able to tell that this is Solidified Ash Domain."

At this moment, Wang Zhifan and Chu Wei walked down the barren mountain to the newly formed river. Wang Zhifan, who used his headlight to observe the surroundings along the way, sighed.

"There is no fog around Solidified Ash Domain. The fog is a characteristic of Solidified Ash Domain."

Chu Wei was not surprised by this. She was already feeling quite exhausted after a busy day and was unable to pay attention to such details like Wang Zhifan, a person with an extraordinary physique.

"Awei, can you swim?"

Wang Zhifan then asked Chu Wei next to him a more realistic question, because they were now in a wide river. To cross the river back to the car, they would probably have to swim in the short term. After all, there was no bridge on this newly formed river.

"Yes, but I definitely don't have the strength to swim over..."

Chu Wei listened and replied with a slightly weak voice. In her current state, she was indeed not suitable for the challenge of swimming through the waterway in front of her.

"Then let me take you to swim there. My swimming ability is very strong."

Wang Zhifan then turned to Chu Wei and said that in his opinion, he and she came here together and should go back together. He couldn't just swim over and leave her alone here.

"Is this... really okay? The river looks quite wide, probably a hundred meters long."

After hearing this, Chu Wei looked at Wang Zhifan with some doubts. It wasn't that she didn't believe in his character, but she felt that after a busy day, he was still physically fit enough to swim across such a wide river, especially when he was carrying one person.

"Don't worry, I know it well. You should be aware of my personality. I basically don't do risky things. Besides, if it really doesn't work, you and I will definitely sink into the river together. It's absolutely fair."

Wang Zhifan then assured Chu Wei that he was not bragging and that he was really capable of doing this.

"But... it's okay to wait here for a while, right? Administration will definitely find a way to get us over there."

Even though Chu Wei trusted Wang Zhifan, he still felt that the other party suddenly proposed such a simple and crude method of crossing the river, which was a bit unacceptable.

"Awei, stop inking, it's already too late! Let's cross the river and get off work! Look at the mosquitoes around here. Do you think you will be covered in mosquitoes tomorrow?"

Wang Zhifan really didn't want to wait anymore, and the reason was not complicated. He just didn't want to continue wasting time in this wilderness at night. After saying that, he took Chu Wei's hand and ran into the river without any explanation, and then took her directly to start swimming across the river.

When accompanied by someone, Wang Zhifan uses breaststroke and can hold Chu Wei next to him with one hand. Since Chu Wei knows how to swim, all he has to do is keep himself from sinking and keep his body floating on the water.

Soon, she felt an incredible forward force from Wang Zhifan's hand holding her, as if the man next to her had a ship engine installed in his body. The entire process of crossing the river was completed successfully in less than a minute, without any waves or dangers along the way. It was so fast that she couldn't even react when she stepped onto the other side.

"Okay, now wring the water out of your clothes, and then we'll get back in the car quickly. When we get there, we'll take a shower and change clothes, and that's it. You'll write that report tomorrow. If anyone above you dares to talk too much, just quit. Whoever is willing to do such troublesome and dangerous things can do it."

Wang Zhifan used his strong physical ability to quickly lead Chu Wei across the river, and then gave her some work guidance.

Because he feels that this girl has a tendency to be exploited. This is not to say that the work of cleaning up Ash Domain is not good, but that it is unrealistic to rely on the efforts of only a few people. Players are also human beings, and players are still precarious. It is foreseeable that most players are not very interested in Ash Domain or the future of mankind. Chu Wei can work so diligently, which is already a typical example of understanding the righteousness.

"Well... I suddenly feel that I have regained some strength after swimming."

Chu Wei nodded quickly after listening to Wang Zhifan's words. She was actually a little speechless about Wang Zhifan's confusing operation just now, but she also felt a little excited for no reason. Maybe it added a new color to the long-term boring life.

The two of them immediately dealt with the water droplets on their clothes and quickly walked to the waiting car ahead to return to the Dongjiang Second Bureau.

Chu Wei Just like Wang Zhifan suggested, this time instead of going directly to the office to write a cumbersome written report, I submitted a brief electronic report in the car.

Wang Zhifan quickly said goodbye to her and took the bus back to his rental house, ending his last working days.

On the bus, as Chu Wei mentioned before, he accidentally heard the latest official national notice:

"Dear Xia Kingdom citizens, in order to cope with the severe challenges of reality and the future, we sincerely invite courageous and intelligent adults to sign up for the player qualification audition. For specific audition procedures, please check the major websites. After becoming an official player, you will enjoy a monthly salary starting at 20,000 with food and housing included. Professional Mentor will also be trained to ensure that every player can have the brightest future..."

"It's really starting to become a national phenomenon. It seems that times are really going to change."

After hearing the official news that had begun to spread all over the sky, Wang Zhifan realized that the past era when players were semi-hidden from the world was gone forever.
