They cannot afford to sacrifice Fang Xiyue's life for their own survival, so this matter requires careful consideration.
Fang Xiyue didn't say anything; it seemed like anything she said at this moment would be a bit inappropriate.
Although she had no intention of becoming the ruler of China, she also had no intention of constantly depleting herself.
It was mentioned that this protection mechanism used her technological abilities, so some consumption was inevitable.
Furthermore, the system now consumes crystal cores daily to maintain its protection mechanism because the area has increased.
There is no such thing as an inexhaustible supply of energy; once the energy supply is insufficient, the protective mechanism may dissipate.
"Xi Yue, if I hand over ownership of 18 cities in China to you, can you guarantee the security of China's territory?"
If possible, I'm willing to give you the position of commander, and together we can lead China forward.
Commander Wu thought for a long time before finally saying these words.
Xi Yue's abilities are evident to all, and she is the only one capable of protecting China from harm. She deserves this position.
"No." She wouldn't speak rashly about something she wasn't sure about. Even the system couldn't guarantee that its protection mechanism would last forever, so how could she?
However, he gained a new understanding of Commander Wu; he was truly a good leader who loved his country and its people.
However, even if she accepts the position, she can easily be removed from it, since not everyone supports her.
Some people might even think she's taking advantage of the situation, and their opinion of her could be very negative.
Commander Wu is a person everyone loves and respects. If she stands in the same position as him, wouldn't she be just waiting to be criticized?
"The protection mechanism requires energy from the crystal core. It could be maintained when the area was small, but it's hard to say when the area is large. Moreover, the energy of our crystal core is not very large now."
If her space were full of level 10 crystal cores, she wouldn't feel like she was running out of energy, but obviously those crystal cores wouldn't suddenly turn into level 10 crystal cores.
"How about this, we sign an agreement, we will temporarily give you ownership of 18 cities in China, you will protect the land of China for us, and during this period we will give you all the crystal cores."
How about you return ownership to us after the war against the enemy is over? We will also pay you a reward.
Finally, Commander Wu thought about it and decided on this plan: cooperation and mutual benefit should also be an option.
"That's possible, but there are only two chances to sever ownership. That is to say, if I succeed in severing it this time, and then I have to sever it again if something happens next time, there will be no third chance."
Furthermore, once it's torn up, the water, electricity, and internet I provided will also be cut off. This is a consequence of the technological ability; tearing it up is tantamount to a complete break, and therefore, I will no longer provide any convenience.
Fang Xiyue needs to make this clear; she can't just keep tearing it apart and playing around with it, as the system doesn't allow that.
You only have two chances to sign successfully, and you only have two chances to tear it up.
"Okay, let's sign this first. We won't break the agreement until we're sure it's safe."
After discussing it, Commander Wu and the division commanders in Xingcheng decided to sign the agreement first, otherwise an air raid might come at any moment.
Commander Wu directly issued a certificate to Fang Xiyue, who then went to Xingcheng to sign her name and check in.
[Congratulations, host, you have successfully checked in and acquired ownership of 18 cities in China.]
In the instant of success, all the zombies in China were blasted outside the city, and the survivors who were worried about whether they would survive the day thought they were seeing things.
But after confirming that they weren't dreaming, they all burst into tears. Some covered their mouths and sat in the corner, while others knelt on the ground and wept bitterly...
They survived! They survived! In that instant, they felt that the apocalypse was over, and all the bad things were over.
But soon they heard a clear broadcast, which was spread with the help of psychic ability users.
"Hello, survivors of China, this is Commander Wu. As you may have noticed, the zombies around you have all dispersed."
But this doesn't mean the apocalypse is over. It's because we have the help of a tech-savvy individual who provided a protective mechanism to keep the zombies out of the city.
However, the protection mechanism requires a crystal core for power, so in order for the protection mechanism to keep running, everyone still needs to go out of the city to kill zombies.
We will distribute food and crystal coins as rewards for killing zombies based on the number of crystal cores you bring back. We hope everyone will actively participate in the mission.
Commander Wu said it only once, and then repeated it three times to make sure everyone could hear it.
However, it's clear that most survivors still don't have the idea of going out to kill zombies; if they could kill zombies, they wouldn't have been trapped for so long.
Now that the zombies have disappeared, their first priority is to go out and find food and water. The streets are in chaos, and there are many instances of looting.
There was no other way but to deploy police and soldiers to maintain order, otherwise the people who had just been rescued from the zombies would die fighting over supplies.
The originally weak survivors somehow found the strength to fight each other, all for the sake of survival; whoever got a bite first would survive.
The situation was getting out of control, so Commander Wu urgently convened a meeting.
"What should we do? We didn't expect the situation to be more serious than we thought."
“The military and police have been cooperating in the crackdown, but the results are not good. They even attack the police for food.”
"Moreover, the zombies in the city have been thrown outside the city, making it even more difficult for the survivors in the countryside. We now have to send half of our manpower to rescue the survivors in the countryside."
Everyone looked extremely flustered, mainly because the scene outside was just too chaotic.
Everyone meant well, but before the enemy even arrived, they started fighting amongst themselves.
"Everyone, don't panic. Commander Wu, please also sign off on the ownership of the towns and villages in China."
The granary was opened to distribute enough supplies to survivors outside the safe zone for a week, free of charge.
Only when the people are well-fed will they be able to rationally listen to what we have to say; this is the best solution right now.
Fang Xiyue directly proposed her own solution, and she didn't know whether they would approve of it or not; she had done all she could.
"What do you all think?" Opening the granary would consume a lot of grain, which they cannot grow now, and they cannot make up for it in the short term.
“I think it’s feasible. The grain will get moldy if it’s left there for too long. Why not distribute some of it first?”
After clearing the zombies out of the countryside, let's see if we can plant some vegetables and grains.
Commander Song from Haicheng and Commander Wang from Jiangcheng both raised their hands in agreement, and then the others followed suit.
That was the decision, and then Commander Wu went to the broadcasting room again.
