The water shortage in Liangcheng could not be concealed. Although the reservoir controlled by the military still had water and the military had stated that there was no problem with the water source of the reservoir, the Liang River outside the city was almost dry, which had already made the people in the city nervous.
Although Liangcheng seems relatively peaceful and without any major troubles right now, people have already started leaving the city.
Disease and high temperatures instill fear in humans, and the drying up of water sources is even more unsettling. It's normal for some to choose to leave and seek a way to survive.
The military did not intercept those who secretly fled the city, but turned a blind eye and let them go. As long as they did not cause any chaos, the military did not care.
Things are different now. Under these circumstances, it's good enough if the military can keep the city stable; they can't possibly care about the lives of everyone else.
Moreover, the teams that dared to leave at this time all had superhumans. The balance between the military and superhumans is already delicate, so it is unlikely to cause conflict over this.
These departing superhumans are not a loss for the Liangcheng military, but a potential threat. So, while the military regrets their departure, they actually benefit more from it.
If Liangcheng is truly relocated in its entirety, these ability users who have no confidence in the military will not be of much help even if they stay; on the contrary, they are likely to become a huge hidden danger during the relocation.
Besides those who secretly left, the superhumans in the military, like Amo, also quietly made contact and started planning their escape.
Facing a natural disaster, going alone would be a terrible decision, so Amer did not refuse the invitation and chose to join.
When that time comes, following the military or joining forces with the superhumans will be the best options.
——
In the forest, Lin Qian had already assigned teams. He, Tiger Dad, and Chipmunk, along with the giant panda mother and cub, the Golden Eagle leader couple, and two Golden Eagles, formed a team and headed to a small spiritual vein point.
Courage, meanwhile, led Tiger Mom, Stepmother, Snow Fox, and the rest of the Golden Demons to another small spiritual vein location.
Shanfeng was still following the giant panda mother, so he was also in Lin Qian's team.
The map provided by the big tiger was very detailed, with the size of the spiritual veins marked, and it could also "automatically find its way," so even if the terrain changed drastically, Lin Qian and the others were not afraid of not being able to find their way.
The spiritual vein map cannot be copied, so only Lin Qian and Yong Qi can lead the way.
Lin Qian had also sent the chipmunk to inquire about the red deer, but the red deer couple did not choose to go with them.
The red deer couple naturally had their own map of opportunities, but they refused not because they were afraid of being coveted, but because the red deer herd couldn't escape.
With the weather getting worse, the herd of red deer consists mostly of common red deer, and they have to take care of the herd and have no time to look after anything else.
Lin Qian felt a little sorry for this situation, but he also understood. Compared to the small groups of families, the herd of red deer was indeed different.
The deer couple, being the leaders, were very responsible and naturally dared not leave the tribe under such circumstances.
During the discussion, the snow fox did not hide the fact that it also had a map of the spiritual veins, not because the little guy was stupid and had no sense of caution.
Instead, Lin Qian had already mentioned that he and Yongqi had a spiritual vein map and had even assigned teams, without excluding Xuehu.
The clever little fox knew that it was not strong enough, but it also understood that it had been truly accepted by the team, so it naturally chose to be honest in order to gain more benefits.
However, Lin Qian did not create another team. Although there were three maps, they had not been explored yet, and the danger level of the Spirit Vein Land was unknown. Therefore, Lin Qian carefully allocated teams this time as an experiment.
Of course, if there is no great danger and the formation is easy to deal with, Lin Qian will divide the team into three groups next time.
The chipmunk was extremely disappointed when it saw that everyone had a spirit vein map, but when it saw its space full of spirit stones, the little guy couldn't stay angry.
By the time the team assignments and other issues were settled, it was almost dawn. The group hurried along for a while, and as they watched the sun rise and felt the rapidly increasing temperature, Lin Qian sighed silently.
Everyone quickly found a lush, tree-lined area to rest, and even the golden eagles flew down. The temperature and even the air currents were scorching, and the golden eagles couldn't bear the torment of the heat.
After everyone finished their meal and were about to go to sleep, they saw the chipmunk quickly take out a spirit stone and stuff it into Lin Qian's hands.
Lin Qian looked at the spirit stone in front of him and was speechless. Was this guy really that stupid and cute?
"Aww." This is yours, you don't need to give it to me.
Lin Qian caught the chipmunk and stuffed the spirit stone into its mouth.
The chipmunk blinked, looking somewhat aggrieved.
In the chipmunk's mind, it and Lin Qian and the others were one, and it didn't think there was anything wrong with that. On the contrary, Lin Qian's refusal of spirit stones made the little guy feel very hurt.
Lin Qian stared speechlessly at the chipmunk; he truly hadn't expected this little guy to be raised so badly!
"Ouch!" This is your stuff, not...￥#@*……
After a long explanation and instruction, the chipmunk finally understood Lin Qian's meaning, but it still hugged the spirit stone and stuffed it back into Lin Qian's hands.
"Squeak, squeak." This is from the mouse, and the mouse is giving it to King Tiger.
The chipmunk is saying that it knows what belongs to it, but it wants to give it to Lin Qian. So, it doesn't truly belong to it; it's a collective issue, and this is simply its own wish.
Lin Qian fell silent instantly, unsure of what to say to this adorable little cutie.
Tiger Dad looked at the chipmunk with envy, thinking how great his big cub's subordinate was!
Thinking about it, Tiger Dad angrily slapped the rattan ball that had already taken root in the ground, the force of which made the rattan ball bounce twice.
