Li Yu felt there was no need to stay here any longer.
Fu Xiyao saw the package that suddenly appeared in the room but didn't ask any questions.
He quickly packed up the package and then took down the awning outside the house and put it away.
Li Yu then pressed the button on the house.
"Click".
The portable house slowly began to fold, eventually returning to the size of a box.
"It's really convenient."
Li Yu stepped forward, picked up the box, and immediately began equipping it.
[Multi-functional Equipment Slot]
[Equipment Successfully]
Portable House (Foldable Mode): Easy to unfold and fold, equipped with a rainwater harvesting plate on top and a built-in air filter.
"It's a success." Li Yu felt a surge of joy.
"As expected of a multi-functional equipment slot."
Carrying a package is much easier than carrying a portable house.
Moreover, apart from the waterproof cloth and distillation equipment, there was nothing particularly valuable in the package.
With the life-giving straw, the time-consuming distillation apparatus became obsolete.
Even if the package were lost now, Li Yu wouldn't feel any heartache at all.
After sharing a piece of the strange beast meat, the two mounted Little Black.
Li Yu determined the direction, glanced back at the high wall of the shelter, and pointed to the opposite west.
"Set off."
Little Black shook its head and quickly ran westward.
......
"Boom!"
The thunderous roar also startled everyone around the shelter.
Beneath the high walls of the shelter, everyone felt an inexplicable and mysterious threat.
What followed was a violent shaking of the ground.
"It's a disaster!"
"Disaster is coming!"
"The prophecy is true!"
"Run! There's still time!"
A moment of panic erupted from the crowd.
Ma Yuanbai, who was resting at the edge of the high wall, hurriedly looked up to check.
"Let's go, we can't stay here any longer."
"Let's go now!"
Ma Yuanbai originally planned to wait until the talent selection was over before leaving with the people in the safe zone.
But now Ma Yuanbai suddenly had a strong premonition that he absolutely could not stay here any longer.
We can't stop for a moment!
"Quick!" Ma Yuanbai stepped forward to help.
Urged on by Ma Yuanbai, the team quickly finished packing up.
"Keep up."
Ma Yuanbai's team quickly left the shelter and headed west.
Although the refugees were all terrified by the thunderous roar.
But everyone quickly calmed down and sat together again.
"It's just thunder and an earthquake, nothing serious."
"Yes, earthquakes used to happen frequently in the Heishan area, so there's no need to worry."
Watching those who hurriedly chose to leave, the refugees couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks.
"They were terrified."
"There are shelters nearby, what are we afraid of?"
The moment the refugees finished speaking, the gate beneath the high wall slowly opened.
A line of patrolmen emerged from the gate, weapons in hand, standing guard with serious expressions.
Immediately afterwards, a piercing alarm sounded over the shelter.
"Waaah—"
"Beep beep".
The sound was so loud that anyone within the patrol area could hear it clearly.
"It's an alarm! Evacuate immediately!"
Patrol teams that were nearby rushed back after hearing the alarm and quickly walked over the high wall.
Everyone in the shelter looked tense and on high alert.
"What's going on? Something seems wrong."
"Are they starting a talent selection competition?"
"No, it doesn't seem like it. I think something big has happened."
The refugees were completely unaware of the impending crisis and continued to watch from the sidelines.
At this moment, Executive Officer Wu Hongguang walked out of the gate.
He shouted urgently, "Someone who knows mechanical repair, come over here!"
A large crowd surged forward quickly.
"Bang!"
A crisp gunshot rang out, and everyone froze in place.
The executive officer raised his gun high: "Watch your gun, think before you speak."
"I can."
A scavenger raised his hand.
"Enter."
The executive waved his hand, and the scavenger excitedly ran through the gate.
"Me too!" another person shouted.
"Enter."
The officer held a gun, and no one dared to deceive him; otherwise, even if they went in, they would be doomed.
At this moment, another patrol team rode back on camels and entered the gate quickly without stopping.
The patrolmen all knew that the shelter's alarm would only sound in the most critical moments.
Seeing the patrol rushing in, the sentries behind the door slightly concealed themselves.
Instead of standing on the wall, the sentries secretly gathered at the doorway.
A sentry stared intently at the open door, his hands trembling uncontrollably.
Seeing that there was still no movement, another sentry quietly reminded the leader in front.
"Captain, this is our only chance."
"Yes, Captain, otherwise it will be too late once the gate is completely closed," the sentry behind urged.
The sentry captain stared intently at the gate, finally making up his mind, his eyes hardening as he gave the order:
"Walk."
The sentry captain led a group of sentries quickly toward the gate.
Just as they reached the main gate, the executive noticed the group and stopped them.
