At noon on July 19, Operation Fire was completed. Under the guidance of the practitioners, all the people in the province basically went underground.
The efficiency of this operation was quite terrifying. Moving tens of millions of people underground within a few days was a big project, but we completed it quickly. This has to be said to be a miracle.
Although the efforts of the cultivators are crucial, the ghost fetus incident actually played a role in promoting it. Otherwise, there will always be a group of stubborn people who refuse to go underground, saying they want to live and die with their own families. There are also conspiracy theories, saying
Yang Bureau is doing this to harm them, etc. In short, there are many such people, but after the last ghost fetus incident, nearly 10,000 people died in the province. Such painful lessons immediately destroyed the stubbornness of those stubborn people and made them
I was able to hide underground in compliance with Yang Bureau's requirements.
In this transfer process, Yang Bureau's shelter also played a certain role. This shelter was originally prepared for cultivators. 90% of the space is occupied by ordinary people, with only a small number of young cultivators in it.
The purpose is to maintain the cultivation seeds of Yang Bureau.
Lin Wei is among them. She is now a key protection target and stays in the shelter with Lin's mother and grandfather.
As for the specific location of the shelter, it is somewhere thirty meters underground in Yang Bureau. Except for my two quasi-relatives, Ye Yuyou and Chen Yi, and the top person in charge, no one knows where they are. It is completely separate from the others.
A shelter is an independent environment.
The purpose is clear, that is to avoid exposing them.
According to statistics, there are 500,000 people hiding in Yangju's shelter, including thousands of young practitioners (including a large number of new practitioners). They are not only the spark of hope in the cultivation world, but also responsible for protecting the safety of the people.
As for cultivators over the age of 18, except for a few qualified cultivators, all of them must participate in the upcoming battle tomorrow. For a time, the entire province was enveloped in a heavy atmosphere, and the air seemed to be filled with a...
There was a smell of gunpowder, and everyone felt an invisible pressure.
In this depressing environment, many people collapsed, despaired, and lost their fighting spirit. They did not have the courage to face the coming war, and became deserters to withdraw from the situation. Some people even expressed their willingness to go to prison.
They also don’t participate in the war, and there are many such people.
Faced with these deserters, Yang Ju immediately issued a statement.
Don't you want to avoid the war? Yes, you can choose to avoid the war, but you are not allowed to go to any underground space and can only stay on the ground. If you violate the rules, you do not need to be sent to prison, they will be shot directly.
However, even if Yang Ju requested this, a large number of cultivators still chose to avoid the war, and this group of people accounted for at least a quarter. If Yang Ju had not issued a statement in time, this number would have probably increased.
Just when Yang Province was in chaos, a piece of news was like a glimmer of light in the darkness, dispelling the gloom shrouding the hearts of people across the province and giving us hope.
A boundary gate appeared in Yangcheng.
This realm gate appeared completely out of thin air, but the moment it appeared, most of Yang Province could feel a violent fluctuation of source energy coming from the direction of Yang City, so it immediately attracted a large number of powerful people.
Notice.
When everyone saw the gate filled with black ghost energy in the sky, the whole province was boiling at this moment!
At the moment when the final battle is about to come, the Realm Gate suddenly appears. To us, this is as exciting as the arrival of the savior, and everyone's hearts are filled with the joy of surviving the disaster.
However, in addition to the surprise, everyone soon discovered that there was no movement at all in this realm gate. This made everyone think about whether this realm gate was brought by Qing Ling.
Come to save the door of hope for the people of Yang Province?
With this question in mind, a large number of strong men quickly gathered at Ye Xiao's house.
"Master Qingling just sent a message. She said that she has borrowed the door and successfully connected to us. However, it will still take some time for the world door to establish a stable connection with our space, so at this stage
The boundary gate cannot be put into use yet, so we need to wait patiently and hold on for the last period of time until the connection is successful." Ye Xiao said concisely and concisely.
Hearing this, the faces of many powerful men were both happy and worried. They were happy that Qing Ling had indeed brought this realm gate, but they were worried that it would take some time for the realm gate to be connected, and obviously we did not have enough time.
There was no obvious change in Chen Yi's face after hearing this, but he asked in a deep voice: "Do you know how long it takes to stably connect two spaces?"
"Lord Qing Ling's prediction is about twenty hours." Ye Xiao replied.
After hearing this, everyone nodded slightly. Twenty hours is probably nearly a day, and the current time is 1:38 pm. At noon tomorrow or even in the morning, the boundary gate will be stably connected.
.
"Because the connection is not stable enough, Lady Qingling cannot come through the gate now. However, Lady Qingling will not waste this time. During this period, she will pick up the three-star strong men from the outside. As soon as the connection is stable, she will be there immediately.
Someone strong will come over."
Night Owl's face turned gloomy as he said: "Lord Qing Ling also said that the Realm Gate's ability to withstand strikes is very strong, and it is impossible for the ghost infants in the war zone to destroy it, but the ghost masters just sent have many ways to take it away or destroy it.
The boundary gate has fallen, so before she and the support arrive, we must guard the boundary gate to prevent it from being destroyed by the ghost master just sent."
"This is our only hope. If the ghost master we just sent succeeds, she will not be able to connect to the Realm Gate in the short term. By then, our Yang Province will have to fend for itself, so..."
"The gate must be protected!" Ye Xiao said seriously.
"good!"
After Ye Xiao finished speaking, everyone nodded in response, their eyes full of solemnity. Everyone understood the importance of the Realm Gate, which is our only hope of saving ourselves.
Once something happens to the Realm Gate, it means we are doomed!
Therefore, even if you risk your life, you must ensure that the realm gate remains intact!
"I understand, the realm gate will be well protected." Chen Yi nodded.
But having said that, Chen Yi was also worried at the moment because he found that he was a little short of manpower.
There is only one second-level leader like Xu Jian in Yangcheng. Even if Xu Jian is far stronger than the ordinary second-level leaders, if there are too many ghost masters on the side, it is still possible for them to succeed. What's more, there are ghost infants in the sky watching eagerly.
The ghost master appears at the same time, and it is still unknown whether Xu Jian can protect the realm gate alone!
"If we just rely on Mr. Xu, we may not have enough manpower, so I'm afraid we have to transfer Mr. Wang, at least two second-level people!" Chen Yi said in a deep voice.
In fact, even with Mr. Wang, Chen Yi felt that he was a little short of manpower.
Just when Chen Yi looked troubled, two auras suddenly appeared. A moment later, two old men with powerful auras appeared in Ye Xiao's house. They were Sun Hong and Zhao Congwen who had been busy practicing.
As soon as Sun and Zhao appeared, they said in unison: "Leave the Realm Gate to us for protection!"
