"We really have no better way. The water isn't deep enough for large ships to navigate. They can't get in either." Xiao Lingfeng knew it was a clumsy method, but for the time being, there really wasn't any other option.
"What if someone doesn't want to move? What will you do then?"
"This is not mandatory. We will only give you one day's notice. If you don't want to leave your hometown, we won't force you. You are all adults and have to be responsible for your own choices."
After listening to Xiao Lingfeng's words, Jian Ning felt that the military leaders were quite to her liking, at least they weren't so old-fashioned. This was no longer the peaceful era of the past.
In this apocalypse, no rules matter. Survival is the most important thing.
"What are you planning to do with Aunt Wang and Tian Tian? Will they be among the first to move there?" Jian Ning asked.
"I want to ask for your opinion. As you know, my mom and Tian Tian are the most important people to me in this world, and I also know your abilities."
So no matter when you move out or stay, I hope they can come with you and help me take good care of them.
I am deeply grateful and have nothing to repay you with.
Only my life is worthless.
But I can guarantee that I will stand in front of you anytime, anywhere, whenever you need me. Do I need to swear an oath? Xiao Lingfeng stared intently into Jian Ning's eyes and asked.
"No need, don't worry. As long as I'm here, I can definitely keep Aunt Wang and Tiantian safe and sound."
Besides, Huang Fugui is with them every day. Don't underestimate it because it's small. Even a hundred or eighty monsters outside wouldn't be a match for it.
"It's you. You can't just rush in like that. You only have one life; once it's gone, there's no going back."
"I know, then I'll leave my mom and the others in your care."
Xiao Lingfeng gave her a deep look, then turned and strode out. He still had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. Too many things awaited him.
"Wait a minute,"
Jian Ning called out to Xiao Lingfeng, then waved her hand and took out two hundred brand-new handheld chainsaws and a small flying boat engraved with array formations from her spatial storage.
"This is powered by spirit stones and has an array engraved on it to defend against monster attacks. Do not take it out to use unless in danger."
It can travel on water and fly in the sky. Here are fifty spirit stones for you; use them sparingly. These things are becoming increasingly rare.
"Thank you. Are these chainsaws for the soldiers?" Xiao Lingfeng understood Jian Ning's meaning.
"Yes, these chainsaws are definitely powerful enough to kill monsters; they're a great weapon for close-quarters combat."
Distribute it among your comrades; at least it will bolster their fighting strength. That's all the help I can give you.
"Thank you, Jian Ning. I thank you on behalf of the citizens of Jiang City! With these, the chances of survival for the people have increased significantly." Xiao Yifan snapped to attention, straightened up, and gave Jian Ning a military salute.
He was incredibly handsome at that moment. Jian Ning managed to suppress her starry-eyed expression.
Watching him pack everything up and stride out, Jian Ning returned to her immortal abode and resumed her cultivation.
This is not a challenge she can rush through; she needs to cultivate the Nine Revolutions Burning Heaven Technique to at least the sixth level before daring to try.
The next day, as expected, drones began broadcasting through loudspeakers throughout the city, announcing the government's decision to relocate the entire city and instructing households to prepare.
Each person can carry one package and their own food; don't bring other pots, pans, or other utensils. Try to minimize the dangers on the mountain path.
Upon hearing the news, Jian Anping didn't even bother to call Jian Ning on the walkie-talkie. He rushed over immediately.
"Xiao Ning, what should we do? Should we go with them? We have so many supplies at home, wouldn't it be a waste to just leave them behind?"
"How about we stay? This building is quite tall, and we have enough to eat and drink at home. We should wait until the kids are older before we move somewhere else, okay?"
"We definitely have to move, and it would be best if we were among the first to go."
But my sister-in-law and the child won't have to suffer on the road. I gave her a turtle shell, so we can put all the necessities inside and take turns resting there along the way.
"What about the rest? What about the livestock upstairs?" In his anxiety, Jian Anping forgot that he could store supplies in his own Atlantis.
He plopped down on the sofa, looking worried. Those were all meat! Once he got to the base, there wouldn't be any supplies. How was he going to survive? Even that tortoise shell couldn't hold much!
"Brother, what are you worried about? Don't you have a storage bag? Besides, with me here, nothing useful will be left behind."
You should go back and help Aunt Li and the others pack your things. I heard about it from Xiao Lingfeng.
The first group left in three days. We went with them, but not on the same route.
They're crossing the mountains; we'll take the waterway. Oh, and I should also tell Aunt Wang to come with us.
“Those waters are full of man-eating monsters, and we don’t have any big ships. Besides, even if we had ships, those monsters could climb up.”
Jian Anping was still a little uneasy. Although he felt that Jian Ning must have her own way, he wouldn't feel at ease until he found out.
"Don't worry, I have a plan. We'll use an array to protect us, and not a single monster will be able to threaten us. It'll just be a bit of a hassle for you to steer the boat."
Although Jian Ning could put them all inside a tortoise shell and fly there on her sword, she didn't want them to rely on her completely. The apocalypse was so cruel; it would be good for her brother to get some experience.
They'll experience different scenery and the wickedness of people along the way. They're being too well protected right now; I wonder if they'll be able to adapt if they actually get to the base.
"Alright then, I'll go home and pack my things now. Xiao Ning, are we leaving in three days?"
"Yes, let's go. There's nothing here to miss."
After Jian Ning finished speaking, she and Jian Anping left the house together and then went to knock on the door of 1603.
"Xiao Ning, come inside quickly. Look, I'm kneading dough, I'm thinking of making dumplings. Why don't you come over for lunch?"
"No need, Auntie. I need to talk to you about something. Did Xiao Lingfeng tell you about the possibility of moving to the newly built base in the next few days?" Jian Ning went inside and closed the door to keep out the mosquitoes.
"I told you, I'm used to living here, and I really don't want to move away."
But Ling Feng said this place might become a ghost town in the future. What's the point of me staying here? What about you and your brother? Are you planning to leave too?
“Come on, I plan to sail to the base myself. Aunt Wang, please pack your essentials and come with us.”
