"Mmm~ Ha~..." Tianjie stretched lazily, this was the best sleep he had in the past few days.
"Awake?" Tiangang glanced at Tianjie in the passenger seat and pouted, "Stop eating the cold ones from the storage compartment. There are canned goods in the back that have just been heated."
Tianjie glanced back and saw the camper. He took a can from the microwave and ate it bite by bite. Looking at the dim sky outside the car window, he asked, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Not long. It's only been a day since we escaped. It's now the evening of the second day," Tiangang said, spitting out his gum and focusing on driving.
Tianjie nodded, "How are your injuries?"
"There was a field doctor among those people," Tiangang raised his arm, "See, there's only a minor skin injury from the last fight, and it's already been treated. The SAN value in the interface dropped a bit, but it's all restored now."
"Huh, where are we going now?" Tianjie sighed and looked at the broken asphalt road around him.
"To the residential area. No cellphone signal, but the radio surprisingly has a signal, barely usable. It's really something."
Tiangang Shaking his head, he threw the old radio on the ground to Tianjie: "Someone has established a settlement on the plateau, broadcasting."
Tianjie turned on the radio and tuned to the set frequency: "Emergency broadcast, emergency broadcast. This is the Western Wilderness Settlement, longitude XX, latitude XX, this is the Western Wilderness Settlement, longitude XX, latitude XX, there are huge dangerous creatures along the coast, I repeat, there are huge dangerous creatures along the coast. If there are any survivors listening, please make your way to the settlement as soon as possible, if there are any survivors listening, please make your way to the settlement."
Tianjie turned off the radio and frowned, saying, "Why isn't it the court that established the settlement area?"
According to common sense, the state machinery should be faster and more efficient than private organizations, but if the refuge was established by the court, it should directly indicate an official organization.
The current message only contains coordinates, belonging to a "no-man's land" location, with no organization, no purpose, only a set of coordinates. No one knows if it's a trap, especially since they just barely escaped from the sacrifice to the merfolk. Tiangang didn't seem to think much of it: "Isn't the court also in a port city? If a giant monster were to land, they would probably have to relocate the capital. How could they have any spare capacity to manage it? Moreover, the gray mist and the eerie creatures within it are blocking the army's advance..."
"Indeed, even thinking for the worst, the rescue team on the road may have been completely wiped out... Shouldn't we head to Sun City?" Tianjie said.
"The previous merfolk were military clothing and equipment, who knows if the entire military is merfolk."
Tiangang Agreement, grinned and said, "Hey, as for Sun City? The high-ranking officials have power and money, what do we have! Uncle Ming is just a researcher, when disaster strikes, he can't even protect himself, let alone care about us. Let's not cause trouble for him, just find a chance to let him know we're safe after we arrive at the place..."
"...Well, that's fine too. We don't know the situation in other places, as long as the settlement was established by living people. But if the person who established the settlement isn't from the court, then life won't be easy..." After all, you can't freeload off someone who established the settlement.
"Ah, there's no way around it. At least we're not ordinary people, and there aren't many of us left, all heading towards the plateau. Besides, I heard those foreigners say that there are also giant monsters landing on the west coast of Zhengyi Kingdom," Tiangang said helplessly.
"So you mean we have them here too, we've just been lucky enough not to encounter them?" Tianjie mused.
"Right," TianGang nodded. "Thinking about it carefully, the earthquakes and thunderous noises those days were probably caused by monsters!"
"The settlement area must have been created by a talented person, and it might even be controlled by a talented person with an army," Tianjie analyzed.
"Where are we now?" Tianjie asked.
"I don't know, I don't have as many opportunities as that kid Huangpu Xin," Tiangang chewed on a piece of gum. "Anyway, we should be heading west."
Tianjie nodded, only then did he remember that these people were actually quite smooth and ordinary, and much more free than Huangpu Xin. For a moment, Tianjie also felt a little dazed. Although the training in Zone A was dangerous, the overall environment was stable, with hope for the future. But now, there is no place of peace in the world...
"Let's find a place to rest first. It's not good to travel at night, and there's no way to run if the smog comes on the highway."
"Okay." Tiangang picked up the walkie-talkie. "Can you hear me? Can you hear me?"
After a moment, the walkie-talkie replied, "I can hear you, I can hear you."
"Preparing to rest on the highway, preparing to rest on the highway."
"Received, received."
Capital city, Sun City.
"How many are left?" asked Zhang Kaiwei.
"Your Majesty, there are two armies left," Han Wu replied.
"Our elite forces, is this all that's left?" Sun King's upper body sank into the shadows, his tone calm, no one knew what he was thinking.
"Yes, a third of the sacrificed soldiers were lost in the explosion of the capsule transporter. Of the remaining two-thirds, half disappeared in the mist, and the other half lost contact along the coast," Han Wu reported t Lucy fully.
"Who is responsible for the capsule transporter?"
Han Wu nodded and said, "It's under the responsibility of Lord Tang Shuangquan."
"Call Tang Shuangquan here," Zhang Kaiwei spoke again.
"Yes," Han Wu was about to give the order when Zhang Kaiwei stopped him again.
"Never mind, let's just hand it over to the court."
"...Okay."
Zhang Kaiwei waved his hand, and Han Wu stepped back.
" Ni Lu," Zhang Kaiwei called softly.
The enchanting woman with chestnut hair and red pupils walked out from the back of the hall, carrying a cup of red liquid.
Zhang Kaiwei took the calming wine handed to him by his queen and took a sip. "This wine is not bad,"
"Is it just alcohol..." The woman sat on his lap smoothly.
"You're not bad either." Zhang Kaiwei felt much better, but when he thought of the trouble caused by Tang, he didn't feel like having fun.
The woman named Ni Lu noticed his changes and asked, "How is your 'shadow' doing?"
Zhang Kaiwei sighed and handed her a document, saying, "There are many discrepancies in the things handled by the entire Tang family... but that's not the main issue."
"He took another sip and said, 'On the surface, it looks like the research institute below has received the majority of the funding, but in reality, the funds have all flowed here.'
'...Orphanage?' The woman looked at the place on the document in confusion."
"Do not dwell on such fine details, okay? Just set the general direction, leave these matters to the finance minister. You are overworked..."
Zhang Kaiwei shook his head. "The head of state is not just about setting the direction." He pointed to the amount on the document. "What else takes up more funds than the national research institute?"
"Then why don't you just copy that place?"
"Don't you think I want to?" Zhang Kaiwei glanced at her, "The Tang family is related to those elusive things..."
"Are those just legends? There's no need to worry so much," the woman was puzzled.
"If it's just a legend, I would have gotten rid of this thorn long ago. Why would I be as restrained as I am now? It's just that my father at that time..." Zhang Kaiwei squinted his eyes, as if recalling something tricky.
The woman saw his furrowed brow and said, "Don't think about it. Rest first. Isn't that place deserted now? Once it's recaptured, the t Lucy will be revealed."
Zhang Kaiwei nodded, "You're right."
After finishing the drink, he picked up the Ni Lu and said, "Let's go, let's relax first, and then we'll talk about other things."
