Today, the last group of residents left, and the military is also completely withdrawing. The fact that there are more than 10 survivors is not a joke, nor is it just luck.
Rather, it was formed by the original survivors of the city after the major earthquake, plus people who continued to come from the surrounding areas. The damage caused by a major earthquake is the most devastating, with at least half of the population dying in it.
At the time of the great earthquake, the population of Linhai City was nearly 20 million, which is the number after the population growth following the emergence of the spiritual tide.
With the occurrence of the spiritual tide vortex and the animal mutations, most people understood that a major change was about to happen. Under such circumstances, most Xia people naturally relied more on the country and the army, and those with the ability mostly went to cities with military strength.
This is why cities like Kyoto, Liangcheng, and Linhai City still had a considerable population during the great disaster, with survivors continuously arriving.

The bright moon hangs in the sky, and the night wind is extremely cold.
Some distance from the migrating caravan, two leopards were facing a mutated centipede alone.
They were not spirit beasts, but just ordinary leopards in the process of evolution, so even though the mutated centipede in front of them was only a little over three meters long, it made them extremely wary.
The two leopards, one male and one female, are clearly a couple.
The mutated centipede opened its mouth wide, continuously spewing out black mist. The leopard couple dared not approach, hiding in the bushes and grass to avoid the range of the poisonous gas.
Fortunately, although the amount of these poisonous gases was enormous, their duration was very short, dissipating in 3-10 seconds.
The mutated centipede is extremely ferocious, but its attack methods are very simple: it only spews poison gas and opens its mouth to devour.
The "devouring" attack method is clearly only effective when used in a sneak attack.
Having discerned these characteristics, the leopard couple flexibly launched a guerrilla war. They were very coordinated and took advantage of their agile teamwork. Soon, they tore off all of the centipede's legs.
Having lost its advantage, the mutated centipede was nothing more than prey destined to be defeated sooner or later. Finally, the twisted and berserk mutated centipede collapsed completely.
The leopard couple didn't even glance at the centipede. They kept running forward until they reached a large tree, where three leopard cubs suddenly leaped down.
"Awooo..." The three leopard cubs, who had been quiet all along, howled loudly when they saw their parents.
The leopard couple nuzzled their cubs, and then the family of five quickly left the area. They dared not linger, fearing that another centipede or something else might emerge from the ground.
