"This is the map we've explored so far; our alliance's headquarters are located here."
Liu Huo took out a map and pointed out the sphere of influence of his alliance on it.
The shape in the picture resembles a maple leaf. The Yanhuang Alliance's sphere of influence is located on the largest central peninsula extending outward from the Maple Leaf Continent. It is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the peninsulas on the left and right sides are the other two segments of the "maple leaf". The land connecting to the mainland behind it is still very small.
The terrain is typically easy to defend and difficult to attack; without the use of large numbers of ships to transport troops, one cannot even reach the peninsula.
Instructor Yin and Ke Jinjun inquired carefully and learned that they were currently in the large island group between the left and middle peninsulas of Maple Leaf Peninsula.
There used to be a force called Shenluo here, but it has now been completely wiped out.
On their way back, they will pass through the territory of an island power.
"This is Tokugawa Shogunate. On our way back, we'll pass through several of their islands. Their island chain stretches all the way to the mainland, so their power is considerable."
Instructor Yin simply said, "Then when we get there, let's stop by and tell them about our Mutual Aid Society."
"Also," Instructor Yin pointed to the other factions on the map, "Afterwards, have someone inform the other factions that our Mutual Aid Society coming, and let them think carefully about whether they want to return to modern life."
"Like I said before, we'd be happy to take you in if you want."
After making a copy of Liu Huo's map, he was sent back to his own ship.
After that, Instructor Yin's fleet sailed towards the territory of the Yanhuang Alliance as planned, leaving Liu Huo, who was deep in thought about life, on the wooden boat.
He was still debating whether to give up the game and return to modern life, or to continue enduring it.
Giving up on this game would certainly be easier, but all the hardships you endured in the game would be for nothing.
If I keep grinding in the game, I don't know what I'll achieve; it all comes down to luck.
The only advantage is that now with the Mutual Aid Society as a safety net, no matter how dire the situation, there's always the option to surrender and return to modern life.
Unlike before, when losing meant certain death.
Liu Huo's dilemma was entirely within Zhang Tianyuan's expectations.
Instructor Yin's fleet was called back by him; otherwise, it would have been lost on the vast ocean.
How could a fleet that had set off ahead of time possibly be overtaken by Liu Huo's sailing wooden ship?
Even the choices Instructor Yin made later were manipulated by him behind the scenes.
However, for Zhang Tianyuan, it didn't matter which option Liu Huo and the other players chose.
He's okay with it as long as they stay in the game and don't cause trouble.
Of course, it would be even better if you were willing to trade with them using the location of resource points or some other special information.
At the very least, you could trade for the special materials necessary for constructing level four or five buildings.
If they choose to return to modern life, then it doesn't matter at all.
In the 2012 timeline, billions of people are currently being fed through planned resource allocation; surely they can support the players of just one server?
After watching Liu Huo's sailing ship depart, Zhang Tianyuan left ten soldiers from the Wandering Spacetime on the island to guard it, and at the same time granted the squadron leader the authority to communicate with him through the system.
Then he returned to the timeline of "2012" to prepare to oversee the evacuation of some small countries.
The current timeline of "2012" is June 2010.
It has been exactly one and a half years since the apocalypse.
Having witnessed the organizational capabilities of the Wandering Spacetime, Zhang Tianyuan gained a new understanding of the limits of humanity.
So as soon as he returned, he immediately sent a message urging Thomas and the others to hurry up.
They were asked to expedite the KV Vaccine administration and sign the application form.
To be honest, based on real-world experience, both of these things are quite difficult to achieve abroad.
Leaving aside vaccines, many people are worried that the Mutual Aid Society application form contains some kind of trap, especially the middle class who have been exploited countless times, and are extremely wary of this paper sickle.
Even if the terms and conditions above are already clearly stated.
Most of them are still hesitant.
Especially now that some opposition figures are starting to emerge, trying to incite public opinion.
Given this situation, Zhang Tianyuan didn't intend to let them dawdle any longer.
Compared to the Wandering Spacetime, the situation in "2012" is simply absurd.
Even Elder Zhou was urged by him twice.
Of course, this doesn't mean we should ask Elder Zhou to urge the domestic authorities.
Given the speed of development in China, the KV Vaccine and application process would have been completed long ago. (2012)
Nearly half of the inhabitants in this timeline are from China.
He requested that Elder Zhou exercise the powers of the head of Mutual Aid Society First Division to supervise the work of the various branches under his jurisdiction.
It was to get Elder Zhou to join in urging Thomas and his gang of turtles.
The population had already reached 2.1 billion in April. After absorbing the group that trusted the Mutual Aid Society the most, it was only in June that the population of the "2012" timeline barely exceeded 2.5 billion.
In other words, the number of residents abroad only increased by 400 million in two months.
At this rate, there will still be 900 million people who haven't signed the application by the time the world ends.
So Zhang Tianyuan casually added the island in the Legend Spacetime that was plagued by nuclear radiation to the list of relocation sites.
I happened to ask if Thomas, who was preparing for the final evacuation, was interested in going there to absorb nuclear radiation...
In this way, the residents' speed suddenly increased.
Then the relocation of refugees from abroad officially began.
Filmed by various news media outlets, the first group of people from small countries boarded a giant, modified passenger ship and slowly sailed through Spacetime Tunnel that had been erected and unfolded on the sea.
at the same time.
In the game world.
In the peaceful Tokugawa Shogunate, residents were processing their catch on the shore. Several lords dressed in samurai attire, with samurai swords at their waists, walked slowly by, surrounded and served by a group of clones.
"The scenery is so beautiful!"
"The sunset is just as beautiful today!"
"Unfortunately, even the most beautiful things will decay..."
The lords, gazing at the setting sun, feigned melancholy, indulging in sentimentality and lamenting the passing of spring.
" Kenta, recite a poem! It's your forte!" the others started egging him on.
Kenta laughed heartily, opened his mouth wide, faced the sea, and was about to recite a poem, but only managed to utter "ah ah" sounds.
"What's wrong, Kenta!"
"Quick, look at the sea!" Kenta finally regained his composure and spoke anxiously.
The other lords all looked in the direction he was pointing.
On the surging sea, a white-painted steel fleet was cutting through the waves in the afterglow of the setting sun!
The enemy was moving very fast, and soon they were completely within the shore's view, and everyone could see the radar and cannons on the ships!
"What's going on?!"
"How could such a warship appear?!"
