Chapter 36: The Broken Ship of the New Era (3K)
This battle.
Many people lost everything.
Their homes were destroyed.
The farmland that they had worked so hard to cultivate had also been destroyed by the attack.
The child had lost his father.
The woman had lost her husband.
Parents lost their children.
All this pain would become a wound in everyone's hearts that would never heal.
Many years later.
They would probably not forget this day.
Still.
However, the Star Moon Alliance was still standing.
Because, to them...
As long as Li Yueming was still alive.
He was still guiding them forward.
So then.
Even if he was crushed to pieces.
They were not afraid at all.
But this time.
However, the miracle did not appear again.
That night.
Li Yueming, who was covered in blood, was carried into the simple infirmary.
All night.
Everyone in the Alliance who had some medical knowledge was summoned to the infirmary.
However, there was still no good news.
The next day.
Li Xiyue, who had cried all night, appeared in front of everyone with red eyes.
Instantly.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Many people even started to sway on the spot.
Li Xiyue pursed her lips.
She tried her best to suppress the sadness on her face.
There was a long silence.
Finally, she gritted her teeth and choked, "My brother, he, died..."
Hearing these few words,
Whoosh!!!
The remaining 100,000 citizens of the Star Moon Alliance were in an uproar.
Everyone's faces were filled with disbelief.
Even though they were prepared.
But when hearing this news,
However, it still made countless people dizzy.
Many people could not withstand the blow and fainted.
They withstood the destruction of their homes and the separation of their families.
And now, the news of Li Yueming's death was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Countless people wailed.
The entire city was filled with cries that made people cry.
The next day.
As Li Yueming's sister.
As Princess Xiyue of the Star Moon Alliance.
Li Xiyue took the position of leader of the Alliance.
Wang Fei, who had just completed the rehabilitation training for his broken arm, was appointed as the deputy leader.
In response.
The Alliance did not cause any commotion.
After all, in the past,
Li Xiyue and Wang Fei already held leadership positions.
Now, they have only changed from private to public.
One day, twenty-three years ago.
Li Yueming came quietly.
Twenty years later.
Li Yueming left quietly again.
When he was around, no one could hide his brilliance.
His existence was like the sun in the sky.
It made everyone pale in comparison.
But after he left.
Only then did the crowd realize.
In fact, it didn't seem to affect the daily operations.
And so.
Only then did many people understand.
Perhaps Li Yueming had anticipated this a long time ago.
He had long prepared for his fated ending.
...
The second year.
With Li Xiyue's approval,
The new Hunter team and Exploration team were officially established.
They began to clean up the surrounding mutated creatures.
They were also equipped with the new breathing technique.
The soldiers were all extremely brave.
Soon, the mutated creatures around the Alliance were wiped out.
They went on to expand the territory.
After resolving the problem of food supplies.
The Alliance's development speed had risen to another level.
Li Xiyue took out the blueprint left behind by Li Yueming.
She began to collect minerals around the territory to develop technology.
Year after year passed.
Soon.
Ten years passed.
The Alliance was developing more and more rapidly.
On this day.
Under Li Xiyue's plan,
Exploration team, Hunter team.
The newly formed Scarlet Squad appeared outside Fallout Shelter 0911.
The mutated creatures also evolved very quickly.
The current Fallout Shelter 0911 was under their construction.
It was no different from a city ruled by Humans.
Of course.
They had to remove animal characteristics like Rat tails, Rabbit ears, and Cat claws.
It was obvious.
This group of mutated creatures had learned the operation of Human society very successfully.
However, the wild beasts had lost their wildness and chose to evolve into Humans.
Could they still be called wild beasts?
No one knew this result.
No one cared.
At this moment, everyone in the Star Moon Alliance, who had a blood feud, was more like a beast than a beast.
Soon.
Several teams attacked.
They attacked the mutated creatures living in Fallout Shelter 0911 at lightning speed.
Although this group of mutated creatures had good combat strength,
They also knew that there was a Human force growing not far from the shelter.
However, the long years of living as a 'Human' had made them lose their original wildness.
Therefore.
Under the absolute suppression of the Alliance's combat strength,
The wild beasts quickly scattered in all directions.
Eventually.
It only took the Alliance half a day to reclaim Fallout Shelter 0911.
The first shot of the counterattack was officially fired.
...
Time continued to pass.
Two years after seizing Fallout Shelter 0911.
This was the first time the Alliance had seen refugees other than them.
This group of refugees had traveled a long way.
From the moment of seeing them, they trembled.
After interrogation, they found out that the eight mutated beast kings were constantly sweeping through Human forces.
It seemed to be preparing to wipe out the other Human forces.
Then, they would gather their forces and destroy Fallout Shelter 0911 in one fell swoop.
After receiving the news,
Li Xiyue was silent for a long time.
Ten years of experience had made her a mature politician.
Many times, she was already used to not showing her emotions on her face.
But now...
However, she also felt a rare trace of nervousness.
One had to know that
Ten years ago, the Star Moon Alliance led by Li Yueming only faced a few tribes under the Rat King.
But now...
What she had to face was the full attack of the eight royal families.
Even with the improved breathing technique,
It was an extremely difficult battle for the entire Star Moon Alliance.
In the dead of night.
Li Xiyue hugged the rapier that Li Yueming gave her and muttered, "Brother, please give me some strength..."
Then.
She couldn't help but tear up as drops of tears fell.
After a while, she wiped her tears.
Li Xiyue puffed up her cheeks and said, "This lousy ship of the new era is really not easy to sail at all!"
