The surviving exiled demigod was silent for a moment before looking at Lu Ning with awe in his eyes: "Lord Lu Ning, you've arrived?"

Lu Ning nodded and smiled at the exiled demigod: "Thank you for taking so long."

If it weren't for this exiled demigod delaying them, the humans below would probably all be dead.

He was not familiar with this exile demigod, but that did not stop Lu Ning from thanking him.

The exiled demigod quickly waved his hand and said, "Lord Lu Ning, you are too kind. We have come here to assist you in dealing with these anomalies."

Lu Ning nodded: "I'll leave the monsters down there to you."

The exiled demigod nodded quickly: "No problem!"

The monsters below were all wiped out, even the saints were gone, all were killed by Lu Ning, leaving only some monsters that were not even saints, which were quickly wiped out by the demigods.

Lu Ning took out his phone and sent a message to Bai Yuan. The next moment, a spatial passage appeared.

The main reason Lu Ning didn't stay behind to deal with the monsters below was because his mental strength was limited.

Naturally, demigod-level monsters should be dealt with first.

Next, under Bai Yuan's direction, Lu Ning traveled to various base cities.

His goal was clear: to go in and see what was going on in that base city.

If things go well, he will directly absorb the mental pollution from the demigod-level monster and then kill it.

If the situation is not good, he will first use the bone pocket watch to freeze time in the base city to prevent greater casualties, and then begin to absorb the spiritual power of the demigod-level monsters before killing them.

If the death toll in the base city is too high and the survivors are not strong enough, Lu Ning will also kill the Saint-level monsters.

He used all his strength, with limited mental energy, to kill the strongest and most numerous monsters.

…………

Time passes.

This war, which spread to base cities around the world, lasted for more than a day before it came to an end.

Almost all the humans and exiled warriors exerted their utmost efforts to kill all the powerful mist monsters in the base city.

Another day passed, and the casualty statistics were completed.

A total of seven base cities were completely destroyed.

Some of these base cities were simply unlucky; one base city had as many as five or six demigods, but its defenses were not strong enough, and it was even possible that there wasn't a single demigod among them.

Before reinforcements arrived, the entire base city had been completely destroyed. All members of the Mist Bureau and the Awakened Legion were killed in action, and ordinary citizens perished as well.

In addition, there are more than twenty base cities with fewer than 100,000 survivors.

Although it's better than total annihilation, it's still a huge loss.

The survivors in these base cities were all sent to Base City 1 by the demigod's ability to tear through space.

The number of casualties varied in the remaining base cities.

In a better-case scenario, nearly a million people survived; in a worse-case scenario, the number of survivors would be in the tens or hundreds of thousands.

In total, the number of surviving humans is only over 90 million.

The casualties were enormous!

Such a disaster is comparable to previous AI-related disease outbreaks in history.

In addition to the casualties among ordinary citizens, more than 60% of the members of the Mist Bureau were killed or wounded, and the Awakened Legion, which had only been formed recently, suffered more than 80% casualties.

After all, the members of the Mist Bureau are stronger than the warriors of the Awakened Legion, so their chances of survival are greater.

The saints also suffered hundreds of casualties, most of whom were human saints, but a few were exiled saints.

Even two demigod-level powerhouses died; both were guardians of humanity, and Lu Ning didn't know them before.

After the casualties were tallied, everyone fell silent.

The losses are too great.

Ultimately, Li Yang made a decision and immediately announced that he would relocate the human population.

Only the last nine large base cities will be retained, with each base city housing around ten million people.

In this way, they only need to use their limited resources to defend nine large base cities.

No one can guarantee that after this instance of the mist monster materializing, it won't happen again.

If this happens a second time, they can react immediately, just like they did in Base City 1, and deal with the mist monsters that appear in the base city.

After all, in this plan, each large base city will have about twenty demigods, and there will be more than three hundred saints.

This lineup is sufficient to resist the normal materialization of mist monsters.

The only problem is the reconstruction of the base city.

Even though high-level awakened individuals can go for long periods without eating, low-level and mid-level awakened individuals still need to eat normally.

If the base city is reduced to ruins, with no farmland, no livestock, and not even housing, they simply cannot survive in such an environment.

Finally, Lu Ning had another idea.

He thought that he might be able to use his ability to make his wishes come true to restore the base city, which had been reduced to ruins, to its original state.

After all, restoring a base city would still consume power within his capacity.

If all else fails, Lu Ning will try using the Pale Crystal to absorb it and accomplish this task.

Lu Ning used Base City No. 1 for experiments. Li Yang, Bai Yuan, Xuan Xu and other demigods, as well as all the citizens who were brought here, all looked at Lu Ning in the sky.

A pale light flickered in Lu Ning's eyes as he began to restore the building.
