The consequences of being directly exposed might be very serious. Perhaps there were super domain creatures like the owner of the fog in the shelter.

At that time, even Suction Cup might not be able to resist it.

Next, he repeated in detail the account that the Scarlet Research Institute had prepared about the Shelter of Victory City.

The specific content was that the domain forces were hiding in the Victory City Shelter.

In the end, the shelter was broken through by a domain faction from the inside out.

However, what Xia Qian said next was beyond his expectations.

“The situation in the Star City Shelter is similar to that of Victory City Shelter, but it’s nor exactly the same. In fact, the domain creatures in the Star City Shelter are more afraid of the base defense being destroyed than us humans.” “Why?” Feng Qi was stunned.

“The rate of the domain field expansion is constantly increasing. There’s only one reason why they chose to hide in the human shelter at this stage. They’re too weak and are afraid of being annexed by other domain forces outside.

“But the situation in the base is not good. The hidden domain forces that are still here are thinking of ways to kill us humans and take sole control of this base.”

“Why didn’t you resist?” Feng Qi asked in a low voice.

Hearing that human descendants were bullied by domain factions, a ball of anger rose in his heart.

Faced with the question, a bitter smile appeared on Xia Qian’s face.

“You won’t believe it. There was a period of time when the control of this shelter was in rhe hands of domain forces. They wanted to gradually control the entire shelter by restraining the growth of humans. After we discovered this, we used the price of perishing together and detonating the entire base as a threat to regain some control of the base.

“Now, we have reached a certain balance with the domain forces, but 1 know that they won’t give up. They ultimately want to control the entire shelter again and use it as a living space for them to reproduce in the future.”

As Xia Qian spoke, he took off his gloves, revealing the red button embedded in the mechanical arm that was wrapped in a transparent shell.

“As long as 1 press this button, the base will enter a self-destructive countdown. This is the only method that makes them wary.”

“Does the other residents here know that there are domain forces lurking in the shelter?”

“The future is already hopeless enough without letting them know.” Xia Qian smiled bitterly.

“Then do you know which people in the shelter are domain creatures in disguise?”

“I roughly know some of them, but I don’t know how many domain creatures are lurking. Although the shelter has advanced detection methods, we can’t screen everyone, unless we re prepared to fight them to the death.

“Sometimes, I even wonder if the 30,000 survivors in the shelter are the last of human civilization. 1 don’t want human civilization to be destroyed in my hands.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi could imagine rhe pressure in Xia Qian’s heart.

With the external crisis and the domain creatures inside who wanted to seize control of the shelter, he was constantly worried that human civilization would come to an end.

At this moment, he also understood something.

Why was the information about cultivation techniques in the shelter restricted?

It was obvious because the domain factions hiding in the base had grasp this portion of authority.

If they wanted to use this method to restrain the growth of humans, it was like boiling the frog in lukewarm water. They were only waiting for the day when they would exterminate humans and take control of the shelter.

The last surviving place of humanity was also regarded by this group of weak domain races as a living space that they had to fight for.

However, Feng Qi did not pity these small races at all.

At this moment, he only wanted to kill them all.

At this thought, he looked up at Xia Qian and said,

Til help you kill them all!”

Upon hearing this, Xia Qian cast his gaze at Suction Cup in his arms.

“If White Pupils takes action, there will definitely be no problem. However, are you sure you can control her?”

“I can.”

Hearing Feng Qi s affirmative answer, determination appeared in Xia Qian’s eyes.

“Alright, 1’11 gather the people from the shelter in the square. You’ll take action and clean up.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but frown.

He did not object to cleaning up the domain forces, but if he really did as Xia Qian said, when the domain forces resisted, they would definitely injure innocent residents.

Seeming to have understood his worry, Xia Qian immediately said,

“I’ll get the residents of the city to bring defensive spiritual talismans with them. This kind of talisman has the effect of automatically activating resistance to damage. It s also a piece of equipment that the residents of the shelter must bring during the emergency refuge drill.”

“Although domain creatures have them too, even if they activate the spiritual talisman defense, they won’t be able to block White Pupils’ attack. As long as we hurry up and clean up the domain creatures, there won’t be any problems… There might still be sacrifices, but the process of removing rhe poison can’t be perfect.”

After hearing Xia Qian’s explanation, Feng Qi knew that this was indeed the best choice.

There was no perfect choice at this time.

History showed that every revolution is bound to be accompanied by sacrifice.

From the perspective of the big picture, Xia Qian’s decision was not wrong.

After struggling internally for a moment, Feng Qi nodded.

“Okay, when do we start?”

“One of them is already dead. The news hasn’t been sent out yet, so let’s take this opportunity and not give them a chance to react.”

As he spoke, Xia Qian reached out and pressed on the table. Immediately, a microphone rose from the center of the desk.

After pressing the switch, Xia Qian said in a deep voice,

“Attention ail residents in the shelter. I’m Commander Xia Qian. 1 now announce that we re conducting an emergency evacuation drill.. All residents, put down your work for the time being and gather at the square quickly with your drill equipment!”
