Ye Chen and the others had not seen each other for a long time. Now that they were reunited, they had a lot to talk about. Especially the White Dragon and Zhuge Fan, who were playing with each other, the hall was filled with cheers and the gloominess was swept away.
After catching up, they had lunch together. Ye Chen summoned the White Dragon, Xu Tianguo, and the others to the meeting room. He said to Xu Tianguo, "Now, the leader of the monster empire has been subdued. However, many cities have been occupied by monsters. It will take some time to clean them up. I'll leave this matter to you!"
Xu Tianguo nodded. "Yes!"
Ye Chen looked at the White Dragon and the others and said, "The few of you will assist in this cleaning mission. In addition, the experts of the Xuanyuan Clan will also help!"
Xu Tianguo understood the meaning behind Ye Chen's words. He knew that he could send the experts of the Xuanyuan Clan if they encountered a strong enemy. He immediately nodded and said, "Yes!"
Ye Chen pondered for a while and said, "In addition, the most important thing is to purchase food!"
Xu Tianguo and the others were stunned. Food had always been the most precious resource in the post-apocalyptic world. They did not know why Ye Chen emphasized it.
Mo Feng frowned and said, "Could it be that a catastrophe is coming?"
Ye Chen could not help but look at him and nodded. "That's right!
Everyone knows that under the influence of the virus, everything on Earth has changed. Living things, plants, water, and all kinds of substances have changed under the influence of these substances, causing a butterfly effect, causing the air, oxygen, and temperature to change greatly! "
Mo Feng had a vague idea of something, but he could not be sure.
Ye Chen looked around and said, "Especially the changes in temperature, the heat and cold effects caused many natural disasters!
For example, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms, and so on. "
Mo Feng was shocked and almost blurted out, "You're saying that this kind of temperature will cause all kinds of natural disasters? Earth might be wiped out by floods and volcanic eruptions like the prehistoric era of the dinosaurs?"
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
The White Dragon was stunned for a while and could not help but say, "That's not good, right?
Why would there be a flood for no reason? This has nothing to do with the temperature, right? "
Xu Tianguo shook his head. His eyes were solemn and with a hint of sadness. He said, "If that's the case, the ice mountains in the North Pole will melt. According to scientific statistics, once the ice mountains in the North Pole are completely melted, all land on Earth will be submerged by seawater.......
................................................
Hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but be terrified. They couldn't imagine the scene when the sea drowned the whole world. In that case, everyone could only hide in the dimension of the ruins forever. There would be no food, and the population would be limited. They would fall into darkness and chaos!
.....
..............
Who knew how long it would take for the flood to subside?
It could be ten thousand years, or it could be tens of millions of years!
Ye Chen said seriously, "Before that, we must accumulate enough food. We don't have much time. Order all the departments in the base city to fully cooperate with the production department to grow food!"
Xu Tianguo knew the consequences of this matter. He nodded and said, "Okay!"
Ye Chen gave some instructions, then stood up and said, "During this period, I will be in seclusion for a while. Two months later, prehistoric monsters will invade Earth. Everyone, get ready for battle!"
Everyone's heart trembled, and they quickly complied.
Immediately, Ye Chen left the conference room and went to a separate hall. He closed everything and began to cultivate cross-legged.
When the God's Blood was obtained, the black-winged man in the ruins of Atlantis would send his subordinates to Earth a year later. It was in April, and there were only two months left!
The black-winged man's subordinates were Ghostly Gods with 500,000 combat power. Originally, they were big enemies in Ye Chen's eyes. However, after obtaining the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, they were no longer a threat.
Now, his only worry was that a big war might break out, shaking the earth's crust and causing the Ice Age to occur two years earlier.
During the Ice Age, food was undoubtedly the most scarce. That period was also the darkest period in human history.
Ye Chen's current physique had not reached Level 10,000, so he could not enter the energy state and transform into the Ghostly God Mode. He still needed to consume food. So, his current goal was to break through to the Ghostly God Realm!
"After the Ice Age, those who are weak will be eliminated. They can't even withstand the cold temperature. Only the new humans who have eaten the meat can barely survive!"
When Ye Chen thought of those nightmarish days, he was even more determined to be strong. In his previous life, during the Ice Age, he was still just a small character. He struggled every day, living a life of fear. He was afraid that he would be hunted and chopped into food when he walked out of the door.
In this life, he did not have to worry. However, according to the Atlantis civilization, in the near future, maybe ten years later, the dark creatures would invade. Before that, he must accumulate enough strength. Even if he could not resist in the end, he could escape to the ancient world like the prehistoric civilization and occupy a place in that world where countless civilizations gathered!
Ye Chen accumulated these plans in his heart. He opened the rune space with his palm and took out the remaining body of the seductive woman. He covered it with the Devouring Power and devoured it crazily!
"The body of the Prince of Darkness is divided into nine parts!
"The body of the seductive woman!
"The body of the winged man!
"Twenty-eight Level 5,000 crystal cores!"
Ye Chen refined all the wealth he had obtained during this period. The entire hall was filled with vigorous energy fluctuations. The rich energy flowed into his body through the pores all over his body. If there was an ordinary person standing there, they would immediately explode and die from the rich energy!
Ye Chen sat cross-legged and cultivated …
Time passed.
In the outside world, intense preparations were also underway.
Guang Ming Base City was relocated from the ancient world. The city walls and buildings were rebuilt. As they were prepared, this time, the construction was not luxurious and beautiful. Instead, it was ordinary and could be discarded at any time.
In the entire Guang Ming Base City, in addition to the 100,000 regular soldiers, there were members of other departments, especially the Production Department and the Construction Department, which had the most members, about 200,000.
After such a long period of development, many small guilds had been established in Guang Ming Base City. The largest guilds were Blue Burning, Fire Beacon, and Emperor!
These three guilds each had forty to fifty thousand people. They opened shops in the base city and operated their own forces. However, in many aspects, they had to abide by the rules of the base city and did not dare to violate the rules!
Xu Tianguo invited many experienced generals and party members from peaceful times to discuss the reform. In the end, he transferred the members of the Ministry of Construction to the Ministry of Production. With the military as the spearhead, they cleared out the monsters near Shennongjia. Some of the mountains and fields were planted with rice fields, wheat, and other food.
The whole city was like a big machine, operating quickly.
Every day at the city gate, a large number of military members rode in heavy anti-zombie trucks modified by the Ministry of Science and Technology. These trucks were made of thick lead and were extremely heavy. It was not easy for zombies to overturn them. Moreover, there were large jukes around the truck that could cut the zombies and monsters that rushed over, preventing some zombies from clinging onto the truck.
After the development of these vehicles, they were immediately put into production and became a common hunting vehicle after the apocalypse. The heavy anti-zombie vehicle did not have an exhaust pipe. It was powered by the light energy conversion technology of the Atlantis civilization. It was powered by an electric engine and only shook slightly.
Under the attack of a large number of Guang Ming Base members, the monsters around the base were quickly cleared. Many of the powerful monsters were killed by the Temple Deacons of the Xuanyuan Tribe!
Each of the Temple Deacons could wield Level 3,000 combat power!
The senior deacons had Level 8,000 combat power!
Usually, the Purple Cloud Island Master and the other divine-tier warriors would rest in the base city.
To them, everything in the base city was extremely strange. There were many technologies that they had never seen before.
The people in the base city admired these tall "giant" warriors. They knew that they were the helpers that the president had invited. Each of them was extremely powerful. The lowest among them was Level 600!
This was especially true for the 1,500 Level 1,000 Warriors. If they swarmed out, they could wipe out everything in their path!
With such terrifying combat power, the monsters around the base were cleared out by a bulldozer. A lot of empty land was cleared out. The Black Nightmare Bug army was stationed at the edge of the land. The middle area was developed to grow crops.
Everything proceeded in an orderly manner. When hundreds of thousands of people devoted 16 hours a day to farming, the speed was simply too fast. Tens of thousands of mu of farmland were developed every day. In just a month, with Shennongjia as the center, several cities in the surrounding area had been razed to the ground and turned into grain farming land!
Later on, the development slowed down. A large number of troops were sent to the surrounding areas to guard the crops and prevent them from being destroyed by the monsters.
China Base City caught wind of what was happening in Guang Ming Base City. With Murong Xue's wisdom, she could vaguely guess what was going on. Although she was not sure, she knew Ye Chen well enough to know that this man would never do something useless. So, she followed his lead and ordered the tens of millions of people in the base city to expand and grow crops!
However, even though China Base City's population was more than ten times that of Guang Ming Base City, it did not have much of an advantage in terms of crops. Instead, it ordered monsters to fight every day and suffered heavy losses!
Later on, Murong Xue had to spend a lot of money to seek help from Guang Ming Base City. She hoped that she could "borrow" the elites of the Xuanyuan family to help them clear out the monsters!
After getting Ye Chen's approval, Xu Tianguo accepted China Base City's request. However, the price was that Guang Ming Base City would have the right to share all the technology patents of China Base City!
This way, Guang Ming Base City would be able to use a lot of the technology from the civilization ruins that China Base City obtained for free.
This seemed like a bad deal, but for some reason, Murong Xue agreed to it!

Yesterday, after a nap, I realized that writing The Darkness Behind was too difficult.
It was hard to realize.
At the very least, I have to finish writing The Darkness Behind before I can do anything else. Sigh, it's sad. I'll just focus on writing The Darkness Behind. Brothers, please support me.
