Arctic Circle.

“One golden beetle emerges every minute…”

At this moment, Lu Zhou stood within the Arctic Circle, staring at the spatial channel appearing in the distant darkness, mumbling to himself. He had just inadvertently discovered this phenomenon.

“Damn it, I should’ve gone out and explored earlier!”

He regretted slightly, this kind of thing would’ve been easy to notice if he were out experiencing it himself.

Yet now, ten days into the apocalypse, he had only picked up on it by chance.

And the information coming back from the front line didn’t mention this at all.

Incompetent?

He shook his head, trying to justify for the soldiers on the frontline.

“Maybe, it’s because everyone has taken refuge within the radius of the Dawn

Stone and no longer confronted the spatial channels directly!”

Thinking this, he couldn’t help feeling mixed emotions about the discovery of the Dawn Stone. He wasn’t sure if it was a good thing or a bad thing!

“But even so, those people who keep watching the surveillance videos are really stupid. They haven’t found anything in ten days!”

When he gets back, he’s definitely replacing those staff monitoring the satellite images. He’ll assign them to clean toilets, which would better suit their abilities!

Early in the morning of July 17, the Nanyuan migration team set off again, heading towards Changyang City.

After a night of burning, Changyang City had been reduced to rubble.

The Road Bully Corps and the Firefighting Team worked together and managed to create a path within the city large enough for the caravan to pass through.

Everyone watched the charred houses along the path, feeling a mix of strange emotions while also a sense of relief.

They were grateful they were humans when faced with a disaster and not the rat kind that were dying.

The whole convoy had complicated feelings when passing through Changyang City. Almost no one spoke, and they quickly moved on from it.

After passing through Changyang City, a grassroots military officer began to shout orders.

“Everyone speed up, there are five hundred kilometers to Meimu Mountain, we must reach before it gets dark… the sooner we arrive, the sooner we can begin building our new home!”

Meimu Mountain was the destination of the Nanyuan migration army. Besides having a Dawn Stone embedded in the mountainside, there was a river nearby, providing the necessary conditions for human survival.

In the command vehicle.

Du Gang reported what he had found the previous night.

“Du Gang, are you sure you didn’t miscalculate?”

Li Youcai was the first to voice his doubts. He thought that people with developed muscles like Du Gang shouldn’t be expected to be very intelligent.

Du Gang glanced at him and blandly said, “Don’t worry, I was once a sports committee member. I am quite sensitive to math problems. I won’t be wrong!”

Wang Dezhen nodded, “I believe you. As for this intelligence, we will report it to the Arctic Circle next time.”

Du Gang looked confused, “Aren’t we going to discuss it?”

Zhuge Shui laughed, “Let those idle folks in the Arctic Circle discuss this kind of problem. No matter what they speculate, they will eventually tell me…”

“Cough, cough!”

He coughed, continued: “Our urgent task now is to plan and develop Meimu

Mountain!”

Du Gang nodded, “Can I listen?”

During the day he followed the convoy, which was quite boring, so he’d rather listen to their discussion.

“Sure!”

Wang Dezhen agreed and then said, “Let’s start the discussion!”

As soon as his words ended, Li Youcai took the lead, “The Arctic Circle sent intelligence on July 13th saying that 175 hours 17 minutes 35 seconds later, the bugs here will completely awaken in the daytime…”

“To calculate it, it will be at 17:42:11 on July 20th for the bugs to be unafraid of light…”

Li Yi, impressed, felt curious about the calculations, “How did you calculate to the second?”

“I estimated it. Roughly around 5 pm on the 20th…”

Li Youcai dismissively responded. He continued, “That is not important. The important thing is that we must change Meimu Mountain into a place where humans can live by the time the bugs awaken in daylight…”

Arctic Circle.

Lu Zhou returned to the command center.

Yao Zhenguo smiled, “I was just about to find you. You have something to say, go ahead!”

Lu Zhou nodded, “I’ve discovered another serious problem!”

“I found that the time golden beetles emerge from the spatial channel is fixed, maintaining a rate of one per minute. This suggests that this spatial channel may not be a natural phenomenon…”

Quickly he relayed his speculation.

Yao Zhenguo contemplated for a while, then passed over a file from the desk,

“First, have a look at this!”

Lu Zhou took it and began to read.

[Nanyuan Military District Intelligence: War God Du Gang discovered that the bugs in the spatial channel are suspected to be unnatural…]

‘What?”

Lu Zhou exclaimed in disbelief.

“He discovered it first?”

Yao Zhenguo snorted, “If he weren’t the War God, the strongest Combat Power of Nanyuan, I would have transferred Du Gang here to become the director of your research institute!”

Lu Zhou ignored his sarcastic remark, and instead read the file in detail. Once he had finished, he breathed a sigh of relief, smiling lightly, “It’s normal that he would discover it. He is hunting at the mouth of the spatial channel every day…”

Yao Zhenguo shook his head, “Okay, I was just joking. I’m not denying your ability. Come to the council chamber at 3 0’clock this afternoon. We will discuss the issue of the spatial channel…”

Lu Zhou shook his head, “Shouldn’t this be a matter for the national masters to discuss? I’d rather not participate…”

“No, you need to participate this time. Some speculations may need scientific support…”

Hearing this, Lu Zhou nodded and laughed, “Alright then, I will see you at the council chamber at 3 0’clock!”

After speaking, he walked towards the exit. Just as he opened the door, it seemed like he remembered something, and he turned back, “I have a suggestion. Let those fellows watching the satellite surveillance go clean toilets…”

“Approved!”

The Nanyuan migration army reached Meimu Mountain at 3 0’clock in the afternoon after a day’s journey.

“Everyone, set up camp at the foot of the mountain…”

“Where are the Earth Element people? Dig holes and build toilets…”

With the shout of the grassroots military officers, the people at the campsite started moving again.

Only the members of the command unit were standing at the foot of Meimu Mountain, looking up.

“There are quite a few animals on the mountain, some of which are nationally protected…”

“Drive them all out, kill any that resist!”

“Nationally protected animals…”

“If humans can’t survive, who cares about animals? Drive them out or kill them. I’m giving you until nightfall to finish this task!”

It had been ten days since the apocalypse. Many previously harmless small animals had evolved into vicious beasts that could kill ordinary people.

Therefore, at this time, he couldn’t afford to be merciful.

Also, time was short. They had two days and two nights to build. They had to clear out the entire mountain by tonight so that the construction team could go up the mountain.

Following Wang Dezhen’s orders, a large number of pioneer teams and the superpowered from the Divine Mystery Camp swarmed up the mountain, beginning to drive off or even slaughter the animals hiding on the mountain..
