Chapter 528: Chapter 364 Li Wenyuan’s Concerns
Su Han looked at Li Wenyuan in surprise, “Elder Li, what do you mean by this?”
“Just in case.”
Li Wenyuan spoke very seriously, his aged gaze landing on Su Han, “The power of the Fifth-Order is something that almost no base can withstand beside you. I’m worried that if it happens again, many people will die.”
He sighed and continued, “Fenglu Base has too many people, nearly ten million. Although our food reserves and the farmland we’ve developed should last quite a while, it’s too dangerous. If we follow the plan, gradually expanding into surrounding cities and dispersing the population, we could eventually achieve regional recovery. But now, that’s no longer possible.”
Around Fenglu Base, one region around Tianqing Mountain has a Pillar of the Blood Sea appear, and within the Fenglu Mountains, there is an unknown Domain of Death that is closely related to the Great Blood Sea.
The erosion draws closer, yet Fenglu Base, as it stands, has no means to defend against a Fifth-Order.
...
Or to put it another way, if we want to fight a Fifth-Order to the death, we might have to use a great many nuclear bombs, hydrogen bombs, at a very heavy cost.
This is something the city’s survivors cannot bear, and neither can humanity.
Such a massive death toll among the survivors would be a fatal blow to the restoration of human civilization.
Su Han pondered, “Do you want to send people away through the Bug Quality Rift?”
“Is that feasible?”
Seeking confirmation, Li Wenyuan asked, an idea that came to him only after he had seen the Bug Quality Rift.
Stretching three to four thousand kilometers, amazingly, Su Han had taken just over ten minutes to travel from South City to Fenglu City, an incredibly fast speed.
For the relocation of survivors, the more people there are and the further the distance, the more uncontrollable the risks along the way become.
If the population could be moved through the Blood Sea Space, then nothing could be better indeed.
After getting a response from Su Han, Li Wenyuan immediately wanted to make arrangements.
Su Han quickly stopped him, saying, “Elder Li, this isn’t something that can be done in a day or two.”
“We must prepare in advance, and still need to recruit a considerable proportion of young and strong survivors, technicians, professionals, and so on to move together.”
Li Wenyuan spoke seriously, “Since Blood Sea Space can be used as a transit, we can move a lot of things, so we should move some special materials as well. With you in the south, that’s where the rebirth will begin. Whether it’s Fenglu, Kakta, or Mo City, trying to reclaim surrounding areas is too difficult.”
In terms of cities, those capable of establishing bases all have their own defense measures, some man-made fortifications, some natural mountain ranges as barriers.
But outside the city limits, with no natural fortifications to defend, it’s difficult to completely suppress monsters and defend the area, not to mention the existence of Fifth-Order or even stronger beings.
In the southern region, Sanjiang flows in between, the southwest is covered by cross-topped mountain ranges with an average elevation of three to four thousand meters, a natural barrier; southeast gradually leads to the sea, but there’s still buffer distance, and the estuaries are not so wide, which you, Su Han, should be able to suppress with your means.
In this way, the south can be self-sustaining, gradually regaining vitality.
Su Han consoled, “Taking it slowly, there is always hope.”
“We can’t put all our hopes on this old man,”
Li Wenyuan smiled and then suddenly said, “Light the Star Torches, for the second phase. With the help of the Star Torch Network, searching for the nation’s visionaries is something you’ll handle. When the time comes, have them all head south to gather around you.”
Su Han was stunned, remaining silent for a long while, then looking up at Li Wenyuan’s sincere eyes.
“Elder Li, you understand the implications of this better than I do.”
“Of course, I do.”
