Apocalypse: I Build A Doomsday Train-Chapter 873 - 364: Ants_3
These three people seem to have been carefully selected, whether it’s physical fitness, appearance, or intelligence, even their lower bodies have extremely high requirements.
Zhou Mingyuan raised his eyes and glanced indifferently, but continued to feed the fish as if he hadn’t seen them.
"Where has the Heavenly Calming Ship reached?"
Seeing Zhou Mingyuan’s reaction, Miss Wen noticed a scarcely detectable hint of disdain in her eyes, and immediately began to instruct the retreat of the Frozen Chamber while speaking.
"In Qingbo City; the outpost transmitted information that the Phoenix Society encountered an A-level aerial Abnormal Body and engaged in combat, but their firepower was very strong and they resolved it swiftly. Now, they are stationed outside Qingbo City, possibly waiting for the Yongcheng Port troops to assemble."
Zhou Mingyuan chuckled deeply: "One brigade of the 83 Iron Guard cannot intimidate Dawn City; Ye Lan must have other motives besides delivering a warning." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞
"Chairman Zhou, over there in Jin Hai, our engineering team is still present, and also Lu Tianye’s garrison regiment..." Miss Wen looked at Zhou Mingyuan, speaking with a certain implicit meaning.
"I’ve already arranged it."
Zhou Mingyuan, with his back to Miss Wen, gazing at the fish in the clear pool, spoke: "A Monster Tide has appeared at Qilian Mountain; a convoy of over a thousand people is trapped. I’ve instructed Lu Tianye to mobilize the troops for a rescue, that person is quite proactive."
After speaking, he seemed to lose interest in feeding the fish and walked over to a luxurious sofa nearby to sit down, speaking sternly: "It’s fine to smash some bottles, but we must not let our industrial area in Jin Hai suffer damage. Right now, Dawn City still needs those equipments to give the residents confidence."
"Moreover, Silent City has hundreds of thousands of people, the information is flowing; at this crucial moment, cooperation outweighs conflict; the Human Camp cannot engage in mutual attacks. Do you understand what I mean?" Zhou Mingyuan turned to Miss Wen, his words carrying a reminder.
"Regarding this, rest assured." Miss Wen spoke calmly: "Our anticipated result remains that Silent City will encounter a terrifying Monster Tide late at night; Chairman Zhou, you will personally lead the fleet to provide full support, rescue many survivors, and assist in taking over Silent City for repair work... "
Zhou Mingyuan nodded thoughtfully and then gave Miss Wen a meaningful look.
"Now the issues within the Deep Red World have stirred significant commotion in the city; now that the Phoenix Society has arrived, no matter what the outcome, we cannot let the anti-human label be affixed to Dawn City."
Miss Wen understood, slightly bowed, and then turned to leave.
Miss Wen, dressed in high heels, traversed through the deep corridor, returning to her personal office. At this time, she activated a secret holographic communicator, and a cold-faced white man wearing sunglasses appeared on the screen.
Julius Litt!
"Zhou Mingyuan has already redirected Jin Hai’s city defense; in that area, there will be no support for Silent City." Miss Wen reported respectfully to Julius.
"Well done; perhaps this can precisely compensate for our recent shortage of experiment subjects."
"Are there many vacancies for experiment subjects now?"
"Star Abyss is covering an increasingly larger area, and the number of survivors is decreasing." Julius spoke coldly, calmly stating: "That Mechanical Superpower User named Lin Xian has wiped out the sand bandits in the direction of Akse. Although Zhou Mingyuan opened a channel for us within Dawn City, that group of survivors has spontaneously organized for defense, and coupled with the garrison led by Lu Tianye monitoring several of our covert points, the number of experiment subjects we’ve captured recently has dropped by seventy percent, and the quality isn’t high. Given the current invasive power of Star Abyss, those at the Evolution Level can’t survive even three days, rendering them practically useless."
"But Silent City is armed very strongly; there’s concern here that such large-scale conflict may cause trouble for Dawn City." Miss Wen said.
"We will not confront Silent City head-on; the intent is merely to retrieve Deep Red No.3 and simultaneously conduct a necessary experiment."
"Experiment? What kind of experiment?" Miss Wen asked.
"You don’t need to know."
Julius did not respond but instead looked at Miss Wen, changing his tone: "Has Zhou Mingyuan considered it yet?"
"Not yet."
Miss Wen quickly adjusted her demeanor, stating: "Vice Chairman Zhou hopes the safety performance of the Fungal Consciousness Transfer technology can reach a higher level, for this purpose, he expressed willingness to exercise more patience."
"Quite the cautious fellow." Julius said indifferently: "Inform Zhou Mingyuan that Chu Zhaonan and the Phoenix Society seem to have run out of patience; they won’t allow him much more time."
"Are you concerned the Phoenix Society will cause Dawn City to collapse?"
Julius was noncommittal: "I just need you to remind him of the remaining value period of his cooperation as Vice Chairman; moreover, you need to inform him that the research on Fungal Technology in the Deep Red World aims to transcend humans’ inferior and fragile existence, achieving a higher-dimensional form of life. Immortality is not a necessary condition; his desire to transfer consciousness to young humans for cyclical immortality becomes meaningless once darkness descends."
"He is very aware of this." Miss Wen replied solemnly: "But he cannot stop himself from succumbing to the primal desires of abandoning human immortality and having great power; further, out of caution, he has secured numerous fallback options. Before true death arrives, he probably will not easily transfer consciousness."
Julius smiled, looking at Miss Wen: "Power is desire, fear of death is also desire, that’s why Zhou Mingyuan cooperates with us, and the same goes for you, isn’t it, Miss Wen."
