Chapter 360 Kanna's Journey
Li Xiang returned to City 03 and handled a lot of his own government affairs. Although Jiang Caier was in charge of most of the affairs in City 03, as the first person on Earth and Jiang Caier's husband, there were still many things that needed his decision.
For example, the ground vein thoroughfare enables the team to be formed.
The list sent by Shen Wen Qian contained more than 500 people, including more than 300 from China and more than 200 from abroad. These were the elites selected by Shen Wen Qian. They were all at the fourth level or above, with clean backgrounds and no criminal record.
As for those below the fourth level, they are naturally encouraged to practice well, as they will have opportunities in the future. As the work progresses and the workload increases, the team will definitely expand, or fresh blood will be needed after the loss of manpower.
In addition to high salaries, there are also very attractive welfare benefits, as well as a disability insurance system. There are also high pensions for death on duty, which will be left to their families or designated beneficiaries.
Some candidates may have no living relatives, but they may have lovers or good friends.
Li Xiang communicates with candidates face to face one by one through video interviews. Although it is online, with current network technology, it is almost the same as "face to face".
During the interview, almost everyone was very excited. After all, they were honored to meet the "big boss" in person. To these people, Li Xiang was a god in their minds, a super idol.
Li Xiang's style has always been down-to-earth. It is not a formal interview process, but a casual chat with the other party like an old friend. Through indirect questions, he gets to know the other party's family situation, identity background, cultivation history, type of supernatural powers and approximate parameters (especially the speed, depth and warning ability of earth escape, etc.), future ambitions and plans, personality and attitude towards life, etc.
I have to say that this work is very time-consuming, but it is also quite necessary.
In the end, 468 people passed the interview.
Those who passed the test were naturally very happy, but Li Xiang told them that there was one last test, which was that they needed to come to City 03 to gather individually. From now on, City 03 would be the headquarters.
If I can't reach City 03 safely alone, I'm definitely not qualified for this job.
For some people who are close to the city, it is easier, which seems a bit unfair. For example, candidates who are already in City 03 are exempted from the test. But in many cases, luck is also a kind of strength.
In addition, although it is an assessment, it is also a demonstration. Some of the people who are far away, in North America or Western Europe, are eager to start preparing for this journey. After all, the more difficult the task is, the deeper the impression it will leave on the boss, and he may immediately entrust him with important tasks after completing it.
Therefore, everything has two sides. Li Xiang admires these optimistic people.
Li Xiang read a lot of letters from fans and randomly picked some to reply to. After all, there were too many letters and he would not be able to reply to every one of them personally. He is not Jiang Caier.
Jiang Caier would not look at his email address either, because there were many female fans among his fans, and the letters were purely to express their love. Jiang Caier would feel unhappy when she read them, so she simply chose to ignore them.
"Hey, Kanna?" Li Xiang suddenly saw a very special email. It was sent by an Indian girl. It was very long and the Chinese used was not particularly fluent, but it immediately attracted Li Xiang's attention and made him read it word by word.
In fact, translation software is very advanced now, and Li Xiang also has "Creation Lotus", so even if she wrote in Hindi, Li Xiang could understand it. But the other party wrote in Chinese, and it was obvious that she was actively learning Chinese.
Li Xiang naturally did not forget the connection between him and Kanna that she mentioned. He thought to himself, it turned out to be that little girl. She has grown up so much now and is a fifth-level earth-type transcendent.
"It's not easy for this girl either. I wonder where she has led her people? How many people are left?" Li Xiang decided to look for her. It happened that he was going to Eileen in Europe, so he could go through India.
Li Xiang estimated that the other party would most likely go through Assam, then enter northern Myanmar, pass through Yunnan Province, and finally arrive at City 03. It is also possible that the other party will get lost and take more detours. After all, walking outside now, there is no satellite navigation, and it is basically impossible to find someone to ask for directions. You can only rely on a compass and observe some "relics" of peacetime.
Due to the black fog, the line of sight was blocked, and the probability of taking a detour was very high. Even Li Xiang, who was familiar with the roads and had traveled to every country on the earth, was extremely familiar with the mountains and rivers, and had the Nine Nether Breaking Delusion Eyes and the ability to perceive the earth veins, sometimes still took a detour.
Fortunately, he was very fast and taking a detour didn't take much time.
…
The route planned by Kanna coincided with Li Xiangzhi's guess. Although it was closer by going over the Himalayas, the mountain was too tall and there were many strange beasts living there.
Although she could escape underground, she could not stay underground for a long time due to her low level of cultivation. She needed to come up from time to time to breathe. There were more than 20 tribesmen, all of whom were ordinary people, including young babies. After crossing the Himalayas, it was the plateau. It was colder up there, the oxygen was thinner, and food was harder to find.
At this moment, she has entered China's Yunnan Province.
She dug a makeshift shelter in a hidden valley and had her people hide inside while she went in search of food.
When Kanna's earth escape technique penetrated the frozen soil, her fingertips suddenly touched a few hard objects curled up. After she pushed aside the ice, she found seven or eight frozen rabbits. The frost on their fur showed that they had been sleeping here for several months. She brought this unexpected surprise back to the temporary shelter, and the numb eyes of the tribe finally showed a glimmer of light.
Kanna collected some frozen and dried pine wood in the valley, chopped it into pieces with an axe made from the teeth of strange beasts, and piled them up. She lit a blazing bonfire in the shelter, and the tribesmen sat around it to keep warm. The bonfire licked the rabbit meat skewered on spurs, and the fat dripped and burst into sporadic sparks.
"Eat." She distributed the browned pieces of meat to everyone.
The fibers torn by the teeth were dry and astringent, and the stomach, which had not tasted meat for a long time, felt sour as it contracted. The howling cold wind outside the cave suddenly stagnated, and Kanna's ears trembled - some kind of sticky ice crystal friction sound was seeping in from the cracks in the rock wall.
"Stop!" A yellowish halo of light burst out from her palm, and the rock and soil collapsed to cover the embers. Almost at the same time, three dark blue beast shadows broke through the ice layer on the top of the cave! Jagged ice crystal bone spurs protruded from their backs, and their sharp claws scraped across the rock wall without making any sound. Only the phosphorescent fire in their pupils reflected the pale faces of everyone. Before the tribesman in the front could scream out, cold mist had already gushed out of his open throat - the breath of the ice claw soul-eating beast froze the flesh and blood into a crystal clear ice sculpture, and even the cry was frozen in the air when it shattered.
