Li Changchun restrained herself but quickly stuffed the pastry into her mouth, savoring the hard-won blessings of the post-apocalyptic world.
Ignoring the desolate surroundings rushing by, the two were just like a couple enjoying dinner under a sky full of stars.
The evening breeze blew, loosening the ribbon that held her long hair up and lifting her thick black hair.
"ah!"
Li Changchun grabbed her hair in a fluster, a hint of shyness flashing across her bespectacled face.
Li Changchun suddenly raised her head and looked intently at Huang Zhao.
"If I want to eat this again in the future, can I come to you again?"
Huang Zhao used his telekinesis to retrieve the hair tie from the air and float it in front of Li Shangchun.
Looking at the girl in front of him, who seemed to have used all her strength to ask the question, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Of course! My private storage room is open to you!"
"But the price is exceptionally high!"
A visible change in emotion was evident as Li Changchun's lips curled into a smile.
"Points, is that right? I can do that!"
Unlike Alice, who is as innocent and refined as a princess in a fairy tale.
She is also different from Ning Chuxia, who is gentle and lovely like a girl next door.
Li Shangchun possesses a certain degree of confusion common among Huang Zhao's peers, but she regains her confidence after setting a goal.
Huang Zhao recalled that he was the same way before the apocalypse, confused about the future and just taking it one step at a time.
"Then you'd better work hard. Dawn City's only requirement is that it doesn't support idlers."
"As long as you contribute to Dawn City, Dawn City will have everything you want!"
Huang Zhao looked up at the sky, though he was still somewhat bewildered.
There are too many unexpected events after the apocalypse. Even with Chen Run's memories of the ten years of the apocalypse in his previous life, many unexpected things still happen.
Moreover, Huang Zhao felt that he didn't seem to be as good at surviving as Chen Run, and it was still unknown whether he could successfully survive the ten years of the apocalypse.
Who cares!
As long as you keep improving yourself, you will always be stronger than any potential danger you may face!
That way you won't put yourself in a crisis!
Huang Zhao shook his head slightly and looked ahead again.
Shanghai is only 100 kilometers away.
......
Inside Dawn City, preparations for the banquet were nearing completion.
At this time, the entire suburban park was brightly lit, as bright as day.
The power system of Dawn City has been completed, and the rooftops of all buildings in the inner city are covered with solar panels, which is more than enough to meet the electricity needs of the entire city.
During the day, solar power is used for energy storage, and any shortfall can be temporarily covered by a large diesel generator.
According to statistics, in the outer city, apart from the nearly 7,000 members of Dawn City, there are also members from the outer city.
The number of survivors who received the invitation reached more than 10,000!
Nearly one-tenth of the survivors in the entire city of Shanghai gathered in the outer city of Dawn City!
More than two thousand tables were set up for the banquet, and twenty thousand people gathered around!
The meals on each table were prepared according to the standards of a pre-apocalyptic hotel, with nine dishes and one soup, and unlimited drinks.
They almost completely depleted the supplies that Huang Zhao had left in the shelter's warehouse before he left.
This was somewhat beyond Brother Jie's expectations, as he worried that Huang Zhao would scold him when he returned.
Ning Chuxia, who had seen the supplies stored in Huang Zhao's supernatural space, knew that this was only the tip of the iceberg of his storage resources.
Even a banquet for 20,000 people would consume no more than 100 tons of meat and vegetables combined.
Huang Zhao wouldn't feel bad if the same items were displayed for three days and three nights.
Knowing Huang Zhao well, she comforted Brother Jie, telling him not to take it to heart.
This made Brother Jie wonder more about the relationship between Ning Chuxia and the city lord.
Huge screens were erected along the inner city wall, broadcasting footage of the western city wall.
The footage of Huang Zhao's return can be transmitted to all the guests attending the banquet in real time.
When they entered a range of about fifty kilometers, Huang Zhao's terminal connected to the shelter's AI.
"Fifty kilometers to go!"
King Kong maintained a speed of 150 kilometers per hour.
In just over ten minutes, they broke through the zombie blockade on the outskirts of Shanghai.
"We've entered the Dawn City area!"
"Ten kilometers to go!"
The drone captured footage of King Kong moving at high speed.
And on its shoulder, the Lord of Dawn City, clad in armor.
Brother Jie ordered his men to begin the first ceremony.
"Set off fireworks!"
On the two-kilometer-long city wall on the west side of Shuguang City, a person was stationed at intervals.
Upon receiving the order, they immediately set off the fireworks and cannons scavenged from fireworks warehouses all over Shanghai.
Fireworks of various specifications, sizes, and effects were ignited and shot into the sky, turning the entire sky a fiery red, which was quite a sight.
When they were about two kilometers away from Dawn City, Huang Zhao told Jin Gang to slow down and walk slowly.
Huang Zhao's image was displayed on dozens of giant screens in Dawn City.
Standing upright on the nearly 20-meter-high Vajra shoulder, Chen Run, clad in armor, stood tall.
Huang Zhao and Li Shangchun rode on the back of Buzai and followed behind.
Li Shangchun was somewhat shocked; even the fireworks displays in the city couldn't compare to this spectacle.
After all, there's no need to consider the fireworks effects or the consumption; all you need to do is ignite all the allocated fireworks and launch them into the sky.
The result is this: messy, yet still breathtakingly beautiful!
"So beautiful!"
"Is this really just a welcome ceremony for your return?!"
Such enormous human and material resources were spent simply to celebrate Huang Zhao's return from his trip.
Even before the apocalypse, this was a spectacle that would shake the entire nation.
Moreover, in the current post-apocalyptic world where resources are extremely scarce, the effects are a thousand times more shocking.
