After finishing their work, everyone collapsed on the spot exhausted. After the shock, they had been busy for a long time, and everyone was extremely hungry. As soon as they lay down, they heard rumbling sounds from their stomachs.
I didn’t feel it when I was scared, but now that I’ve relaxed, I realize I’m hungry.
Looking at the ruined Yan'an City, everyone felt like eggplants hit by frost.
Their home is gone!
"If the house is destroyed, we can rebuild it! Now the most important thing is to fill our stomachs!"
The people who were originally drooping their heads all raised their heads when they heard Qi Yanxuan's voice.
Looking at the figure standing there holding the loudspeaker, although his clothes were torn and he looked a little disheveled, he gave everyone great confidence.
The city lord was right! They were even more miserable at first, but they managed to get through it, didn't they? At least everyone still had food, so why were they so depressed?
After calming down, everyone got busy again, lighting the fire and cooking.
Qi Yanxuan couldn't wait to cook. The double consumption of their physical bodies and supernatural powers had already made them starving.
Take out the self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot from the space and share them with a few people, and just eat them for now!
Wisps of smoke rose up, and a group of dusty people sat on the ruins and wolfed down their food. The scene was extremely spectacular.
Compared to their current comfort, Nangong Xiaoze was not so comfortable.
When the houses collapsed, it was good enough that the soldiers of Nanli Kingdom did not use the civilians as human shields, so how could they protect them?
Although there were people with special abilities in their city, they felt superior to others. The people were originally captured as slaves, so who would care about the lives of the slaves? This led to heavy casualties in their city.
These people with special abilities were awakened after Nangong Xiaoze attended the wedding.
Because the partners of Nangong Xiaozefa's three brothers were also people with superpowers on the day Qi Yanxuan and Shen Yanqing got married last time, he guessed that some of them might have ways to awaken superpowers in ordinary people.
There are no zombies here, so the only possibility is because of the crystal core. After figuring it out, Nangong Xiaoze went back and tried it for a while.
Calling one of his men over, Nangong Xiaoze took out an earth-type crystal core and ordered him to eat it.
Although the man was afraid, he did not dare to disobey Nangong Xiaoze's orders.
The moment the man took the crystal core, it turned into energy and penetrated into his body. This also made Nangong Xiaoze understand the secret of awakening superpowers.
This is also thanks to the fact that this subordinate was able to awaken the earth-type ability. If the earth-type crystal core had no reaction to him, it would have been fatal if he had really eaten it.
Afterwards, Nangong Xiaoze awakened superpowers for several of his subordinates. These were all superpowers that he thought they could use. He was not afraid that these people would have rebellious thoughts. Without the crystal cores he gave them, it would be too difficult for them to upgrade.

After having a full meal and regaining their strength, everyone started to get busy again.
Part of the greenhouse was destroyed by the falling boulders, and the metal frames were deformed.
Qi Yanxuan and Shen Yanqing went to melt the metal racks that were damaged by the stones and put them away for storage.
The people began to dig potatoes in the ground.
We originally planned to harvest in a few days, but plans cannot keep up with changes, so we just let it go as it’s almost done and it won’t have any impact.
Lin Zi and Shen Yanshan rebuilt the city on the top of the mountain.
Because the whole sky and earth became gray, which greatly obstructed people's vision, the progress of digging potatoes was very slow.
Chu Han led the soldiers to use wooden frames to prop up braziers, placing one every few steps along the way so that everyone could see clearly.
After it was completely dark, the city was rebuilt, exactly the same as the original one.
Qi Yanxuan stood on the city wall, holding a loud speaker and shouting: "The city has been rebuilt! But you still have to build your own kangs later. Now, each family should send one person to get charcoal from Manager Xu! Don't close the windows when burning charcoal to keep warm at night, to avoid poisoning!"
"Yes! Thank you, City Lord!"
The people stopped what they were doing, lined up consciously, and went to Xu Wenliang one by one to get the charcoal, and then returned to their homes to pack their things.
After a busy whole day, everyone was very tired. Qi Yanxuan gave each soldier who had to stay behind for night patrol a cup of spiritual spring water, which could not only eliminate fatigue but also strengthen their bodies.
After leaving two white tigers to help guard the door in case of any emergencies, the few of them went back together.
The two white tigers also awakened their special powers some time ago. The little white tiger is a mutant species itself, and the big white tiger has long been different from ordinary white tigers because of drinking spiritual springs every day.
The big white tiger has awakened the wind ability, and the little white tiger has awakened the thunder ability. Leaving them to guard the gate is much safer than leaving them as ordinary soldiers.
Two white tigers were resting on the city wall, and they would wake up immediately at the slightest movement.
After a quick dinner, they returned to their rooms to rest.
Shen Yanqing sat cross-legged on the mat on the ground, activating the supernatural powers in his body.
Today, the heavenly fire descended, and the fire energy in the air was rioting. He absorbed too much fire energy. He was busy before, so he had been suppressing the supernatural power that was about to break through. It was not until this moment that he sat down and broke through with peace of mind.
A thin layer of blue flame appeared around his body, and as his supernatural power was activated, the blue flame kept dancing.
A quarter of an hour later, all the blue flames returned to Shen Yanqing's body, and his fire ability also broke through the fourth level.
The same scene was happening in another room. After such a long period of practice and accumulation, Shen Wenxuan was also making a breakthrough.
A transparent shield enveloped him. There were obvious water ripples inside the shield, reflecting different halos under the light, and the person in the water seemed to be able to breathe without any hindrance.
Soon after, the transparent shield disappeared into the body, and Shen Wenxuan's water-based ability also reached the second level.
The next morning.
The sky was still gray, and the whole world seemed to be plunged into darkness forever. Pedestrians walking on the streets of the city could only vaguely see blurry figures.
Based on the city lord’s previous description of the end of the world, everyone understood that eternal night had arrived.
For a moment, the whole city seemed to be plunged into sorrow.
Every citizen is worried about their livelihood. Everyone knows that plants need sunlight. Without sunlight, food cannot be grown. It seems that God is deliberately not wanting people to survive!
Fortunately, Qi Yanxuan did not keep everyone waiting for long. He first called the people together to dig out the potatoes that had not been dug yesterday.
After digging the potatoes, Qi Yanxuan only harvested 10% and distributed the remaining 90% to the people.
Nearly 60 million kilograms of potatoes were distributed per person, with those under seven years old being paid half the adult rate.
There are more than 300,000 people, and each adult can get nearly 200 kilograms of potatoes.
Looking at the food in their hands, the people were moved to tears.
Originally, none of them wanted to share the food. When they worked, the city lord would settle the food for them every day. However, the city lord only took 10% of the harvest, which was lower than the taxes collected by the court in the past. How could they not be moved?
