After saying that, Chen Zhongzheng took out his phone from his pocket and opened the picture of the dimensional crystal necklace.
"Come back immediately once you find this! We'll give you half an hour! Once the half hour is up, we'll ignite the fuel rods!"
Chu Jialin looked at the dimensional crystal necklace, then nodded: "Okay! I'll take care of it!"
Chen Zhong patted the other person on the shoulder: "Be careful! We'll wait for you to come back!"
After putting on the protective suit, Chu Jialin felt like she couldn't breathe.
After stretching his legs a little and making sure he was okay, he gave the haters an OK sign.
"Everyone, listen up! Start work now! Protection team, prepare!"
So the others got busy.
Meanwhile, the other members of the team looked at them, seemingly more professional than them, and the equipment they brought was also quite good.
...
In the dimensional space.
Lu Yuan laughed when he saw his teammates who were still in a daze.
Welcome to my city!
Lu Yuan reached out his hand to Zhou Keke.
Zhou Keke felt a little surprised, but still shook hands with Lu Yuan.
"Um...you just said...this is your city?"
Lu Yuan nodded: "That's right! This is my city! Those are the high-rise buildings in the administrative district, still under construction! This is where new recruits report for duty! That's the industrial zone over there, and the residential area over there! And further away is the mining area! If you'd like, you can work here in the future!"
People still didn't realize what was happening.
"Um... Lao Tian... no, Lu Yuan, are we dead? Is this heaven or hell?"
"Yes! This place is so nice! It must be paradise! But it's a little different from what I imagined!"
"There are so many people here! And so many buildings and vehicles! This feels like another world!"
"..."
People were clearly still somewhat incredulous that they were still alive.
Lu Yuan shrugged: "You can treat this as a dream. If you still want to go back, I can take you back! But I can't leave right now! You can rest for a while! Come find me when you've thought it through!"
Then, Lu Yuan said to Shen Hu, "Brother Hu, arrange a place for them to stay! We haven't finished dealing with things outside yet! I have to be ready to go back at any time!"
"Don't worry! Leave this to me!"
After saying that, Shen Hu shouted to Zhou Keke and the others, "Let's go! I'll take you to the temporary rest area to rest for a bit!"
The group looked at each other, but still followed Shen Hu to the rest area.
Having not had a proper rest in a long time, Lu Yuan suddenly felt reluctant to leave after arriving at this place.
Back in the central area, Xiao Shan, heavily pregnant, was sitting under a golden fruit tree, drying some dried fruit.
Lu Yuan walked over quietly and reached out to hug Xiao Shan from behind.
Xiao Shan trembled with fright. When she turned around and saw that it was Lu Yuan, she immediately grabbed Lu Yuan's arm.
"You rascal! Why are you only getting back now?!"
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "The matters outside will be dealt with soon! I'll be back as soon as they're done!"
"Huh? You're not finished yet? I thought you'd be done in no time!"
Lu Yuan sighed: "It's not that simple! We've run into trouble this time! So I might have to leave at any time!"
Hearing Lu Yuan say he had to leave again, Xiao Shan looked reluctant: "Sigh! I really will miss you!"
Lu Yuan smiled, then squatted down in front of Xiao Shan and gently stroked her belly.
"It's been five months already!"
"Yes! Do I look terrible right now?"
Xiao Shan gently placed her hands on her stomach, feeling that this was the ugliest time of her life.
Lu Yuan shook his head, then cupped Xiao Shan's cheeks and said, "You are more beautiful now than ever!"
"Really?"
"Yes! Really!"
Lu Yuan nodded vigorously: "The most beautiful expectant mother!"
"Haha! That's good! I thought I was so ugly I couldn't even show my face in public!"
Just then, the sound of a bell came from afar.
Lu Yuan looked up and asked, "What's that sound?"
"That's the sound of people leaving get off work! It's lunchtime!"
"Lunch? Great! I haven't had a proper meal in ages!"
"Okay! I'll ask Mom to make you something nice to eat! What do you want to eat?"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment: "I want to eat everything!"
"Haha! Okay, then I'll make you a dish that makes you want everything!"
After a while, the family members returned one after another.
When Lu Yuan returned, everyone gathered around him.
"Xiao Yuan, you've lost quite a bit of weight lately! How's everything going outside?"
Grandpa had a smile on his face. He seemed to have gained some weight recently, which was definitely good news for someone who could eat whatever he wanted and never gain weight.
Lu Yuan smiled and said, "It's basically all taken care of! After we finish these things, we should be able to leave!"
"Great! The basic construction in the new city is almost finished! You, the one who's been shirking your responsibilities, should come back and see the results!"
"Yes, Xiaoyuan, with you gone, we feel like we've lost our pillar of support! You have to be careful!"
"I heard there are a lot of termites outside! How are things going for you? Also, has the water seepage problem in the urban area been resolved?"
