"It is the honor of the entire survivor base to be able to take care of you. Major General Li, please..."
Zhang Weiguo did not hesitate at all, and directly led the Dark Manticore to fly forward, causing the people below who raised their heads to pay attention to the battle nervously to widen their eyes. They looked at each other for a while, unable to think of a reason.
They originally thought that Zhang Weiguo would have a life-and-death duel with the Dark Manticore, and the fight would be so dark that the sky and the earth would be ping-pong, but unexpectedly, there was no dispute between the two parties...
"What's going on? That's a lord-level monster. Commander Zhang..."
"It can't be that Commander Zhang was controlled by that monster, right?"
"Don't be impatient. That monster flew into the city and didn't hurt anyone. Maybe it's not an enemy..."
"You blind people, didn't you notice that there was someone on the manticore's back? Maybe this manticore has been tamed!"
"Taming lord-level monsters? How is this possible? Every monster hates humans and feeds on flesh and blood. Even beast tamers have a very difficult time taming three-pole bugs, let alone taming lord-level monsters..."
"If you can really tame it, you must at least be a high-level lord-level beast tamer... Tsk tsk, there really are people in this world who are better than humans, but I don't know where that person comes from."
The tens of thousands of survivors below all speculated that they were full of interest in the dark manticore tamed by humans. Of course, they were more interested in the owner of the manticore. Unfortunately, the dark manticore flew hundreds of meters above the ground. The distance was too far for ordinary people to see Li Jiayu's face clearly with the naked eye.
Looking down from the sky, this city is naturally in chaos...
Hainan is a very humid place. The warm and humid climate makes the plants on Hainan Island extremely dense and strong. However, during the apocalypse, the plants naturally mutate like crazy. The streets of the entire city are covered with a large number of black mushrooms. Purple weeds, each black mushroom is as big as a washbasin, and each purple weed is as long and thick as sugar cane.
Mushrooms and weeds emit a strong, strange smell, a bit like rust, and a bit like disinfectant. It makes people in the whole city breathless. These mushrooms and weeds are completely inedible. If you dare to eat it, various poisoning phenomena will occur, and the consequences will be extremely serious!
In addition to these small plants, there are naturally large trees. Rows of trees planted on the streets are supposed to be for viewing and collecting dust. However, after growing wildly, these trees have all become twenty or thirty meters high, which is equivalent to six or seven storeys. , a large piece of air roots fell from the sky, and when the wind blew, the air roots were waving like thousands of ghastly ghost claws, adding a bit of weirdness.
The roots of the trees were quite developed and spread very far. The concrete floor was bursting with the support of the tree roots, with pits and cracks spreading in all directions.
There are not many buildings in this city, it can be said to be quite few. In many places, wooden sheds and simple mud houses have been erected. It is extremely crowded and messy. Looking down from the sky, you can still see I saw a lot of clothes and dehydrated leaves hanging on the wooden shed...
One and a half million people live in such a simple city...
Li Jiayu's eyesight was excellent and he could clearly see a large number of collapsed houses on the street below. Bricks and tiles were scattered everywhere, and some furniture was tilted on the ground. In addition, in some places There were also bottomless sinkholes, varying in size, ranging from ten meters in diameter to a hundred meters in diameter. They almost swallowed up a small residential area. It was shocking!
"Commander Zhang, is there an earthquake here too?"
"There are no major earthquakes, but small earthquakes occur every now and then... Have you noticed those sinkholes? They gradually appeared a few days ago. They have already swallowed up many houses and killed hundreds of people..." Zhang Weiguo closed his eyes and shook his head while flying in the sky.
"The appearance of sinkholes indicates that the city's foundation is unstable and the soil below is moving violently... If possible, you'd better lead these 1.5 million people to move to another city, otherwise, something will happen here one day. If there is a big earthquake, it will be too late to regret." Li Jiayu reminded.
"Yes, I also have this idea... But it is not easy to relocate 1.5 million people. Besides, we have built so many preventive measures here... If we go to another city, we have to build city walls, ditches, pools, and magic circles again. , guard tower, this will never be achieved overnight..." Zhang Weiguo sighed, with a trace of melancholy between his brows. The safety of 1.5 million survivors is shouldered on his shoulders. If there is a slight mistake in the decision, it may Thousands of people died, so he had to think forward and carefully before doing anything.
"That's right..." Li Jiayu expressed understanding.
"Those collapsed buildings were destroyed by the corpse tribe. A few days ago, a bunch of corpse diggers emerged from the ground. They emerged from the soil and caused chaos. Hundreds of people were infected with the corpse poison in the first place. Wait for me When they rushed to the scene, they had already turned into pale zombies. Huh, the zombies are becoming more and more cunning now. They actually know how to dig tunnels in the soil and directly avoid the city wall and go straight to the city... I ordered people to destroy them. The tunnel was closed, and extra manpower was deployed to guard against the diggers under the soil. However, it has been raining heavily in the past few days. The rainfall in one week was equal to that in the past three months. The streets were still flooded yesterday... So, There is no time to rebuild the collapsed house..."
Zhang Weiguo shook his head and said that as the commander-in-chief, the troubles he has to deal with are very difficult, especially in recent troubled times. Bad news has been conveyed one after another, and the storm in the South China Sea has begun. There are fewer and fewer low-level zombies, but high-level zombies However, there are more and more tribes. Some time ago, there were a large number of tripolar amphibious insects wandering on the shore of Haikou City. The number was as many as a thousand, which made Zhang Weiguo even worried and had trouble sleeping and eating.
"Hainan is alone overseas, so it is difficult to get support from many inheritors on the mainland... However, because the island is large, there are far more insect zombies on the island than on the small islands. However, you have few manpower, so it is difficult to form an effective defense line..."
"It's hard to survive alone. If possible, please take care of Major General Li and lend a helping hand when necessary. On behalf of the 1.5 million survivors, I would like to express my highest gratitude."
"Well, let's talk about it later."
Li Jiayu said lightly that maybe he could still help once in a while, but he could not help for a lifetime. He couldn't even solve the problem of Yongcheng. He had too much energy to take care of Hainan, let alone Tiannan Province and Hainan is also separated by a strait, thousands of miles away, which is really inconvenient.
If any province or country wants to survive well, it can only rely on itself. Finding any offensive and defensive allies is just a drop in the bucket. After all, under the collision of the raging insect zombie frenzy, only strong self-protection is possible. Only then can you persevere.
Therefore... in the next few years of struggle, cultivating a large number of potential inheritors will be the top priority!
Not long after, Zhang Weiguo had led the Dark Manticore to a slightly elegant courtyard. This place was used to provide leisure vacations for wealthy tourists, so it was well decorated and the houses were full of Hainan's unique style. White windows, blue guardrails, brown walls, and many strange stones are placed in the courtyard. Of course, there are also a large number of crazy and chaotic mutant rare plants...
As soon as the Dark Manticore descended here, it immediately caused a commotion, like a pot exploding. Screams and cries rang out one after another, mixed with the screams of women and the cries of children, and even more... The clinking sound of the cup falling to the ground was obviously the terrifying oppression of the Dark Manticore that frightened the residents nearby.
"Major General Li... Can you ask your Manticore to avoid this... This is a civilian residence after all, and all the people living here are the family members of high-ranking inheritors in the military. If I frighten their bodies, I won't be able to explain it." ..." Zhang Weiguo cupped his hands to Li Jiayu and looked at the dark manticore with complicated eyes, which frightened him.
"Can."
Li Jiayu didn't want to be scary anymore. With a snap of his fingers, the Dark Manticore turned into white smoke and disappeared out of thin air. The three-tailed fox girl, Yu Baiying, and the three children also fell steadily to the ground.
Zhang Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief, but his brows trembled and he blurted out:
"This... that manticore just now, where did he go?"
"Oh, it's just my summoned beast. I let it return to the world where it is."
Zhang Weiguo was stunned again, looking at Li Jiayu with an increasingly weird look. He had always thought that the mountain-like dark manticore was an abyss creature that was subdued by Li Jiayu, but he never thought that it was just Li Jiayu's summoned beast!
She, isn't she the goddess of light...
The goddess of light should be proficient in light magic. Why is she a summoner now? If she can easily summon a lord-level manticore... then she is at least an intermediate lord-level summoner, and judging from her tone just now, it seems that she has more than one lord-level summoned beast on hand!
Zhang Weiguo quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead and gained a deeper understanding of Li Jiayu's amazing strength.
"Please, Major General Li, if you are tired, please move into this house first... This place is originally used to entertain distinguished guests from other provinces. Some time ago, Fang Yun from the Netherlands Province and Hua Feiyang from the South Guangdong Province were both here. I have stayed here before, and even your Excellency Lin Luanqiu from Yongcheng took a nap here for half a day... "
"Huh? Fang Yun has been here too?"
When it comes to Fang Yun, Li Jiayu naturally has some impressions. This guy is a den of snakes and rats with Yang An. In his previous life, he and Yang An often made trouble for Li Jiayu. Moreover, Fang Yun is the Pope of Darkness and has an overwhelming influence on the Great Summoner of Darkness. Being strong, Li Jiayu suffered a lot in his hands. RS
