Ye Chen put away the rune space and walked to the window. He knocked on it slightly, and the transparent glass that could withstand the power of the rocket launcher automatically fell down. Fresh air rushed in.
From here, he could see the whole city.
There were only a few people walking on the street. The whole city was dead. After three months, many ordinary people had run out of food and water. They had nothing to support them. They could only lie in their houses, motionless, to avoid wasting their bodily functions and making their stomachs hungrier.
Ye Chen frowned slightly. It wouldn't be long before these civilians would target the base city and start a rebellion.
While he was thinking, footsteps came quickly from outside. Before he knocked on the door, the metal door automatically recognized him and opened with a "ding".
Xu Tianguo walked in and said with a wry smile, "President, the water resources of the base city have run out."
Ye Chen turned around and relaxed his eyebrows. He said indifferently, "It's nothing. Later, bring some people to the entrance of the relic and get some seawater from outside."
Xu Tianguo was startled and immediately said with joy, "Okay, I'll bring some people there right away!" Then he hurriedly turned around and left.
"Wait a minute." Ye Chen suddenly shouted.
Xu Tianguo quickly stopped and turned around in surprise, "What?"
Ye Chen pondered for a while and said, "You spread the news. If you want to get more, get more.
These ordinary people will also rush over when they hear the news.
Without food, they can still survive for a few days by relying on the organic materials in the seawater. "
Xu Tianguo was startled for a moment, then immediately agreed, "Okay!"
It didn't take long for the news to spread. The entire city was in an uproar. Many people who were hibernating at home were also awakened by the loud broadcast. After hearing what was being broadcasted, their eyes lit up. They quickly got up, took their weapons, put on their armor, and rushed to the entrance of the ruins.
The space connection point of the ancient martial arts civilization was in the square. When Ye Chen arrived, the square was already filled with people. It was a hubbub of noise.
Ye Chen put his hands behind his back and soared into the sky. The entire crowd quieted down. They raised their heads and looked at Ye Chen with full attention. Their eyes were filled with reverence and anticipation.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
In the distance, figures flew over. They were the Purple Cloud Island Master, the white-robed elder, and the other nine Divine Grade experts of the Xuanyuan Clan. All of them had a combat strength of 10,000, and the Purple Cloud Island Master had a combat strength of 100,000. However, once he broke through, he could enter the Ghost God Mode!
The White Dragon and the others also hurried over.
The base city had been quiet for three months. This was the first time such a big commotion had happened. All the high-ranking officials had arrived. Huang Tianci, Hua Chao, and other powerful warriors from the Transcendent Hall were floating in the sky.
Rumble ~ ~ ~
In the distance, there were a few rumbles. Xu Tianguo was the first to arrive. Behind him, there were a few huge objects. They were a few Platinum Ponds. They were extremely spacious, about a hundred feet in diameter.
The crowd automatically made way. The Platinum Ponds were placed below the entrance. Once the relic was opened, endless seawater would fall into the Platinum Ponds.
When the rest saw the Platinum Ponds, they took out their Platinum Ponds and poured them into the ponds.
Seeing that everything was ready, Ye Chen ordered Xu Tianguo to open the entrance of the relic. As the ancient martial arts civilization was conquered by Xu Tianguo himself, the city's AI system had recognized Xu Tianguo as its master. Therefore, only he could open it freely.
Xu Tianguo looked solemn. He took a step forward and silently communicated with the AI system.
Whoosh!
In the sky, a black dot expanded rapidly and turned into a huge black hole. Endless seawater flowed out of the black hole. As the black hole expanded to a diameter of ten feet, the seawater poured down like a white pillar. In just a dozen seconds, the Platinum Ponds were filled.
A few Ant Supermen were beside the Platinum Ponds. They activated their Superman Mode. When the Platinum Ponds were full, they pushed them aside and replaced them with the next one.
The rest of the people didn't care. Seeing that they could take advantage of the situation, they were afraid that Xu Tianguo would close the Platinum Ponds after filling them up. They all crowded over and stood beside the Platinum Ponds. The seawater that splashed out filled the Platinum Ponds.
Suddenly —
Poof!
A few fish monsters jumped out of the Platinum Ponds. They were holding pitchforks. Their cheeks were covered in scales and their fangs were ferocious. Their upper bodies were muscular like humans, but their lower bodies were fishtails.
The White Dragon and the others, who were floating in the air, didn't panic when they saw the Murlocs. Instead, their eyes lit up and they were extremely surprised. They all rushed forward and broke the Murlocs' necks with their fists and feet. They then threw them to the 100,000 soldiers of the base city.
The ordinary civilians next to them were extremely envious when they saw this, but they could only hold back. After all, the base city was a deterrent. No one would be stupid enough to rob them.
Xu Tianguo stood next to them and was responsible for maintaining order. He said loudly, "Everyone, don't rob them. They'll be distributed later. Please wait patiently."
When everyone heard his promise, they all quieted down. However, when they saw the fishmen that were squeezed out of the Platinum Pool and fell to the ground, they still swarmed over and beat them to death. Then, they pulled at their arms and tails, tearing them apart. A fishman was directly dismembered.
It only took a few minutes to fill up four or five Platinum Ponds. The Platinum Ponds were still too small and couldn't hold enough.
Ye Chen asked Xu Tianguo to temporarily close the relic space and transport the water from the Platinum Ponds to the reservoir at the bottom of the city. When the Platinum Ponds were empty, they would continue to open the relic.
This time, as soon as the entrance was opened —
Roar!
An angry roar came from outside. Then, a huge One-Horned Flood Dragon head, covered in gray scales, poked in from outside. Its eyes were filled with cruelty and bloodthirst.
As soon as the Flood Dragon came in, it saw the dense crowd in the square below and many people floating in the sky. It couldn't help but be dumbfounded. Immediately, it shrank its head, turned around, and ran away. It complained incessantly in its heart. Damn it, it had walked into a den of thieves!
"Want to run?"
Ye Chen's eyes were cold as he raised his hand and grabbed at the air. The vigorous Qi in his body surged out and formed a huge black palm that rushed out of the black hole and grabbed the flood dragon's body in the water and pulled with force!
Crash!
The entrance of the relic was pushed open by dozens of feet. The Flood Dragon's entire body fell down, overturning the Platinum Ponds below. Seawater flowed all over the square.
With a push of its claws, the flood dragon flipped over and stood up. It was horrified. Before it could escape, it saw the sky above its head darkening. When it looked up, it was so frightened that its eyeballs almost popped out. It saw two young men and a young man floating above its head, with malicious smiles on their faces ….
"Run!"
The Flood Dragon felt the aura of these young men and its first thought was to escape. However, it wanted to cry but had no tears. This time, it seemed to have fallen into an ant's nest!
The White Dragon and the others quickly killed the Flood Dragon. Together with Yue Heng and Zhuge Fan, they carried the Flood Dragon's body to the edge of the square. They would deal with it later.
At the entrance of the relic, seawater was still flowing. Soon, the reservoir of the relic was filled.
Seawater couldn't be consumed directly. However, in the relic of the fire civilization, there were prehistoric filters that could remove the salt and other impurities in the seawater, turning it into pure water.
After the reservoir was filled, another five ponds of seawater were collected and sent to the side to distribute to the rest of the ordinary people.
In the process of collecting the water, many fish monsters flowed in and were all slaughtered.
In addition to hunting a Flood Dragon, there was also a White Tiger Shark and a Sword Fang Fish!
After that, Xu Tianguo closed the rune space.
Before Ye Chen let Xu Tianguo distribute the items, Xu Tianguo immediately spoke first. His eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "I found a good idea. Isn't the whole world submerged by seawater?
We can let the seawater fall into the relic. That way, the seawater on Earth will recede!
Anyway, below this Ancient Martial City is an endless space. It's like a bottomless pit! "
In the relic space, the sky was grayish-white. It was like an independent space. The Ancient Martial City was suspended in mid-air. All around and below it was a grayish-white space.
Ye Chen silently watched him speak excitedly. Then, he said calmly, "It's useless. This is an independent space."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed. The seawater that filled the square flowed down along the edge of the city. It dripped into the grayish-white space below and disappeared.
"It's gone!" Xu Tianguo was ecstatic.
Suddenly, a drop of cold liquid fell on his face. He was stunned. When he looked up, he saw that it was raining above his head. He could not help but be shocked.
"This is a cycle," Ye Chen said calmly, "If you jump down from the Ancient Martial City, you'll fall down from above."
Xu Tianguo finally understood. His face was full of excitement. He immediately fell down and hung his head dejectedly.
"Distribute the food. Keep it for the Flood Dragon Base City. It's enough for one meal," Ye Chen instructed. He swung his sleeves and turned to leave.
A thousand feet long Flood Dragon could only be eaten by half a million people. It was barely enough for one meal.
Due to their physiques, the Flood Dragon's meat was very nutritious. It could activate their blood and Qi. People with low physiques only needed to eat a little bit of meat to fill their stomachs.
To feed half a million people, they had to have a Flood Dragon for every meal. That was two a day!
If the Purple Cloud Island Master, the White Dragon, and the Black Nightmare Bug Army did not get enough cured meat, they would not be able to survive.
After that, Xu Tianguo took charge of the distribution. He distributed the seawater and the corpses of the Murlocs to the ordinary people. As there were too many people, it was quite troublesome to distribute. They could only crush the corpses into meat paste and distribute it according to their weight. Everyone could only get a piece of meat paste the size of a finger. Even so, everyone was pleasantly surprised.
The regular army of the Flood Dragon Base City had high physiques. Therefore, they ate more food. Although there were not many corpses of the Murlocs, their physiques were very high for ordinary people. Just a little bit of meat paste was enough for them to fill their stomachs.
After receiving the food, many people were excited. They did not expect that the Flood Dragon Base City would not give up on them at such a critical moment. They could not help but feel touched.
However, no one knew if this feeling would still be effective when there was a shortage of food in the future.
Ye Chen returned to his place. He received a message from the virtual reality headset. He quickly entered the virtual world.
