Qicheng.
This is the most prosperous city in the human area that is no longer troubled by the beast king and beast tide.
Before Li Xiao came to Qicheng.
It's just a small city.
Without the protection of a strong person, the most powerful beings with superpowers of the SS level would be overturned if a slightly larger beast wave came.
The area is not very large. The former Qicheng was the same size as the current Xincheng in the West District. It can be said that it is small and pitiful.
If an ordinary person ran with all his strength, it would probably take only half an hour to run from the east to the west.
The population is not very large either.
At that time, the entire city together probably only had about 400,000 to 500,000 people, right?
Compared with a city in the East District with a population of one million, or even two or three million, there is no comparison at all!
But this small, weak and broken Qicheng has now become the best city in the three regions.
Because of the addition of more than a dozen satellite cities.
The current size of Qicheng is comparable to the size of those municipalities before the appearance of the alien beasts, and the area is astonishing.
Qicheng is like a main urban area, densely packed with over a million people now living there.
And those satellite cities that guarded Qicheng inside now seemed to be one district after another, protecting Qicheng inside.
The total population of the entire Qicheng urban agglomeration is now almost reaching tens of millions!
This also troubled Chen Xuan very much.
Their current logistics supplies, living facilities, etc., in this era of alien beasts, simply cannot support a city with a population of tens of millions!
There is no shortage of food. There are so many alien beasts now, and the alien beasts are so big. The alien beasts that the investigation team went out to kill can be enough to feed the people of the whole city.
But eating is solved. People can't just eat. There are still many things to do.
So whether it's sanitation or medical care, the whole city is in a semi-paralyzed state at the moment.
It is absolutely not possible to continue like this.
Chen Xuan was also sweating profusely.
He was not a very top internal affairs talent to begin with, he could only be said to be barely competent.
He can manage a city of hundreds of thousands of people very well.
But now there are tens of millions of people, and there is simply no way to deal with it.
Recently, he has been thinking about merging these satellite cities together one by one. The headquarters is now very safe, so that they can move out, leave the surroundings of Qicheng, and settle down in new places.
It's like a new town in the West End.
Go to a new place, rebuild the city, get support from the whole city, and then spread.
It's much better for them to go out now than in Xincheng.
After arriving in the new city, we still have to keep an eye on threats from the outside. We may stop the construction of the city at any time and try our best to defend against the enemy.
That's why the new city is so miserable now, except that the outer wall is better built to defend against the beast tide.
The internal architecture is simply miserable.
Li Xiao went to see it, and of course the support troops from Qicheng also went to see it.
How does it look different from the slums?
It seems difficult to adapt.
But isn’t it something that can’t be helped?
This is all we can do.
So compared to New Town, this is already a very good thing.
But what troubles Chen Xuan the most is that the city lords of these satellite cities, one by one, say they are unwilling to leave or go out.
Isn't it because the power supply is unstable?
Doesn’t it just use very little water?
Isn’t it just that there are too many people and it’s crowded?
Small things are all small things, and they can overcome them all by themselves.
Anyway, it's just one of the main projects, so asking me to move away is something I don't even think about.
Chen Xuan died speechless.
I didn't plan to tell Li Xiao these things originally, and I didn't want to bother Li Xiao with these things.
But in the end there was no choice but to ask Li Xiao for help.
This forced Li Xiao to change his route. He originally planned to go to the mysterious cave first, but now he could only go back to Changcheng. When Li Xiao came to the Central Square, Li Xiao did not intend to go to Chen Xuan first.
Even though Chen Xuan's office building was right next to the Central Square, he didn't plan to go there first. He had to do something first.
When he looked down at the statue carved with his own image standing on Central Street.
He lowered his head and looked at the square, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people at this time, and now it was actually densely packed with people.
Um?
Are there any activities today?
Why are so many people here?
Don't understand.
Li Xiao was a little confused.
The two children beside him looked a little shocked, "Master, I haven't seen so many people passing by for a long time. How many people are there in this city?"
"There are already more people standing below than there are in the entire new city, right?"
Li Pingan's eyes widened and he said in a daze.
Really, the whole thing below is densely packed with human heads.
And they were all standing in the same direction.
All eyes are looking at the sculpture in the center of the square.
After looking carefully.
Only then did they see that the sculpture was actually the sculpture of their own master!
"Master, is this the statue in the central square they said?"
"When I was in the new city, I heard from the superpower brother who came to support me that there is a particularly magical statue in the central square of the headquarters. I didn't expect that it was actually a sculpture of you."
The girl stared at this scene with wide eyes, unable to believe that the people below who were worshiping the statue were actually their master.
Moreover, the girl quickly discovered something keenly!
They are not motionless while suspended in the air.
They moved forward slowly.
This one moves forward slowly...
It looks like it's floating...
Well...
Mainly she found out.
The closer they got to the idol.
The sculpture seemed to be glowing.
And the light is getting brighter and brighter.
And she seemed to hear someone shouting below.
"It's bright again!"
"Brighter! Brighter!"
"Master Li Xiao must be back. The statue has been lighting up since last night. Master Li Xiao is getting closer and closer to us!"
After hearing these words, the girl's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she felt very surprised.
It's so magical.
Li Meiman could hear these words.
Li Xiao must be able to hear better.
Simply outrageous.
Li Xiao looked down strangely.
That sculpture...
Li Xiao really couldn't remember which beast king's tooth it was carved from.
Anyway, they are the teeth of the Beast King.
I've never found this thing to be so psychic before?
Can this be done the same as device search? ?
The closer you are to the device, the brighter it becomes? ?
Li Xiao still didn't believe in evil for a long time, so he deliberately stepped back a little, and when he saw the statue, he actually became a little calmer. (End of chapter)
