That ruin is not a good place. Not only are there mutated animals and plants, but there are also various traps and even other survivors. It can be called a purgatory on earth. It is easy to get in but difficult to get out.
"No, that place is too dangerous!" Parent Qu was the first to jump out and object, "We can't let the children take risks!"
Mou Xuan's brows were tightly knitted together, and his fingers tapped the table rhythmically, making a "dong dong dong" sound, like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.
He was well aware of the danger of the ruins, but there was no better solution at the moment.
Without sufficient materials, the fortifications cannot be completed, and the alliance base will be like a lamb to be slaughtered.
"I'll go." Mou Xuan's tone was firm and unquestionable.
"No! It's too dangerous, I don't agree!" Chen Yao grabbed Mou Xuan's hand, her eyes full of worry.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Mou Xuan held Chen Yao's hand and gave her a reassuring look, "I have to go. This is my responsibility."
He looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice, "I will personally lead the team and select some elite forces to go to the ruins to collect materials.

After that, he began to call the roll and select the elite team members.

Chen Yao hugged him tightly, tears silently falling, and prayed silently in her heart: You must come back safely.
Watching Mou Xuan and his group disappear into the night, Chen Yao's heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making it impossible to breathe.
The atmosphere in the base was solemn. Everyone was doing their job and working nervously. There was a depressing feeling in the air.
Suddenly, the alarm on the watchtower rang through the night sky. The long "Woo--" alarm sounded like a death warrant, making people feel nervous.
"Report! An unknown force is approaching quickly!"
Chen Yao raised her head suddenly, her face turned pale in an instant, her eyes filled with fear and anxiety... In the distance, a dark mass of figures appeared on the horizon, slowly approaching the alliance base...
"They... they are coming..." a young girl said tremblingly, her voice as thin as a mosquito.
