To be prepared for any eventuality, Xiao Yi strengthened the base's security, increased patrols, and further enhanced its defenses. Xiao Yi quickly summoned the base's security chief for an emergency meeting in the conference room. With a stern expression and a resolute tone, he declared, "From now on, we must be on high alert." Following the meeting, additional sentries were posted at the base's entrance, and heavily armed guards kept a vigilant eye on the surroundings. New patrol teams began patrolling the base and surrounding areas continuously. Dressed in uniform, armed with advanced weapons, their steps were measured and powerful. The existing perimeter walls were reinforced and raised, and topped with sharpened barbed wire. Observers in the watchtowers remained vigilant, alert for any suspicious signs. In the armory, technicians thoroughly inspected and maintained all weapons, ensuring they would be operational in a critical moment. Simultaneously, new defensive fortifications, including traps, bunkers, and obstacles, were being constructed at full speed. Residents of the base were also organized to practice evacuation drills in the event of an emergency. Children were taught how to protect themselves in the event of danger, while adults learned basic combat and defensive techniques. Xiao Yi personally oversaw the implementation of every security measure, moving between posts and encouraging everyone: "We cannot afford to let our guard down for even a moment. We must be fully prepared to protect our home." Under Xiao Yi's leadership, a tense yet orderly atmosphere permeated the base. Everyone was fully aware of their responsibilities and committed to meeting any potential threats.
"Whatever their purpose, we must be fully prepared," Xiao Yi said to everyone at the base. Xiao Yi stood in the center of the base's square, surrounded by a dense crowd. His voice was loud and firm, penetrating the noisy background and reaching everyone clearly. "Friends, we are facing an unknown challenge at this moment. These mysterious visitors, their intentions are unclear, their backgrounds a mystery. But no matter what their purpose, we cannot take it lightly." Xiao Yi's eyes swept across the crowd, his eyes filled with determination and courage. "We don't know what awaits us ahead. Perhaps a conspiracy, perhaps a devastating crisis. But we must not fear, we must not retreat." He clenched his fists and raised his voice. "For we are a united collective. We have the courage, the wisdom, and the resolve to defend our homeland!" The crowd echoed with agreement, and Xiao Yi continued, "We must be fully prepared, from stockpiling supplies to reinforcing fortifications, from training personnel to refining emergency plans. No single step can be overlooked." "We must remain vigilant at all times, not missing even the slightest change. We must support and help each other. Only by uniting as one can we stand firm in the face of the unknown storm." Xiao Yi's voice echoed throughout the square, inspiring everyone. "Let us work together. For the safety of our base, for our future, let us be fully prepared to meet all challenges!" Xiao Yi shouted, and the crowd erupted in warm applause and passionate cheers.
Awaiting the truth. Amidst a tense atmosphere, Xiao Yi and the base's staff continued their daily construction work while awaiting the final results of the investigation and preparing for the challenges that lay ahead. The morning sun bathed every corner of the base, and the workers began their busy day early. Xiao Yi walked through the fields, checking on the progress of crops with farmers. He meticulously instructed them on planting techniques, sweat drenching his brow, but a hint of worry lingered in his eyes. Workers busied themselves on the construction site, laying bricks and welding with expert, focused movements. Xiao Yi frequently checked on the progress, reminding everyone to be safe while also encouraging them to work faster and contribute to the base's development. Children diligently studied in the classroom, while teachers patiently explained the lessons. Standing outside the classroom window, Xiao Yi gazed at the children's hopeful faces and vowed to protect this pure land for them. In the base's intelligence room, investigators worked tirelessly day and night analyzing the clues they had gathered, meticulously examining every detail. Xiao Yi came here every day to inquire about the progress of the investigation and discuss possible directions with everyone. At night, when everyone finished their work and gathered to rest, the topic would unconsciously turn to the mysterious visitors and the still-unclear truth. Everyone's face was tired, but their eyes were full of determination. Xiao Yi stood high on the base, gazing at the darkness in the distance, silently praying that the investigation would yield results soon. He knew that no matter what lay ahead, he and the people at the base were ready. They would bravely face it all and protect their home and their future.
The truth was revealed. When the investigation confirmed that these people were from a long-extinct island nation, harboring ulterior motives, Xiao Yi was furious. He clutched the report, his hands trembling with anger, the paper rustling in his grasp. His eyes widened, rage threatening to burst from his sockets, and his teeth chattered. "These damned bastards!" he roared, his voice echoing through the room, filled with fury and determination. Xiao Yi's mind flashed through historical events. The island nation's previous acts of aggression had brought devastating disaster and painful memories to countless people. And now, they dared to revive in the apocalypse, once again threatening peace and tranquility. "Do they think the apocalypse is their chance to do evil? Such wishful thinking!" Xiao Yi slammed the report onto the table, his face twitching with anger. He paced back and forth, his rage growing stronger. "We've endured so much hardship and finally built this base, and yet they're trying to destroy it!" Xiao Yi's voice was filled with grief and indignation. At this moment, he wasn't just filled with anger towards these people, but also with a sense of responsibility towards the base and its people. "We must not let their plot succeed. We must resolutely fight back!" Xiao Yi paused, his gaze fixed on the distance, as if he could already see the coming battle.
