Chapter 1215: Chapter 553: Has Yangshan Been Occupied by the Military?
"It’s so dark here."
"I can’t see anything."
"Officer Li, how are we supposed to live here?"
"Exactly, Officer Li, there’s no light at all. We can’t even make a fire to cook."
Everyone couldn’t help but start shouting.
Officer Li was also stunned by the environment of the Dark Abyss Mouth.
It was too dark here, a pitch-black world with no light at all.
How to move around here?
Li Hao hurriedly looked for Liang Yuan, shouting, "Mr. Liang? Mr. Liang?"
"I’m right beside you."
"Phew, Mr. Liang, is there nowhere here that can be illuminated? Even a fire would do."
Liang Yuan said, "You can start a fire, and you can cook food with fire; it’s just that there’s no light."
"But there’s an expert I’ve left on the island, so at least the people from Beichen Island won’t dare cause trouble here."
"Do you want to overcome difficulties and survive here, or go back to Fanshan Island and take a chance? It’s up to you."
"This place isn’t far from Fanshan Island, so you can transport resources from Fanshan Island here."
"But let me be clear, if you dare to commit crimes here, don’t blame me for being rude."
Liang Yuan coldly warned everyone because he had seen Zhang Peng’s incident of being robbed while hunting.
Now, in this dark environment, it’s inevitable that someone’s malicious thoughts would arise.
He wouldn’t allow dirty deeds to occur in his territory.
Li Hao responded promptly, "Rest assured, with me here, I won’t let such things happen."
Liang Yuan had also heard of his reputation along the way, knowing that Officer Li is an upright and selfless person.
He nodded slightly and said, "Officer Li, you supervise this group of people. If there’s anything you can’t resolve, let me know, and I’ll handle it."
"I have to go out, and it will be a while before I return. Settle down here with peace of mind."
Li Hao nodded quickly, "Tend to your matters. Having a place to stay is already very satisfying for us."
"By the way, Mr. Liang, if you’re not here, what if the people from Beichen Island come after us?" Li Hao suddenly thought of this and asked hurriedly.
Liang Yuan smiled, "Don’t worry, without my permission, anyone who enters will face the same fate."
He didn’t specify the fate, but Li Hao felt greatly relieved.
Liang Yuan said, "That settles it then; I’m off."
"Mr. Liang! Can I come with you?"
In the darkness, Nie Xin’s voice suddenly came.
It turned out she had been near Liang Yuan all along.
Liang Yuan had naturally been aware of her proximity.
Upon hearing her words, Liang Yuan shook his head slightly, "I’m on a rush this time; you can’t keep up with my speed."
Nie Xin was taken aback and couldn’t help but say, "Mr. Liang, I am a Wind Attribute Superpower User. I can’t say my speed matches that of speed-type superpower users, but it’s far beyond other types."
"Moreover, I can fly too."
Liang Yuan replied with a smile, "Along the way, I have to fly, and without an Awakened Genetic Species, you can’t afford the consumption."
"Stay back and help me look after this place; there are many things Officer Li, being a man, can’t manage."
At the same time, Liang Yuan addressed the crowd, "Ladies, if you have any inconveniences, you can approach Nie Xin."
He arranged the people, wasting no time, found the black dragon, reminded it to look after the group of people, and then immediately flew towards Linjiang.
Baoshan City and Linjiang City are separated by a single river; using telekinesis to fly across Linjiang, Liang Yuan reached Linjiang’s borders in less than twenty minutes.
He first passed through the park, then through the urban area, and quickly arrived at the New District.
For the entire journey, at his speed, it took less than an hour.
On his way, heavy snow was falling everywhere; the ground was no longer a flooded landscape but rather a vast snowy plain.
He saw some scattered high-rise buildings standing on the ice surface; these buildings were generally the taller ones initially.
Most of them were concentrated around the park and urban area, near what used to be the busiest commercial area.
At the same time, Liang Yuan noticed these buildings were generally crowded with people.
Many people began venturing out to find food and new shelters.
Throughout the journey, Liang Yuan occasionally saw people setting out in groups in the snowy fields.
There were also some frozen to death, lying on the snow, eventually covered by falling snowflakes.
Moreover, Liang Yuan saw some large Mutant Beasts running wildly in the snow, hunting those on the move.
The entire world seemed to have transformed from a flood apocalypse to an icy wasteland.
This drastic change gave Liang Yuan a sense of unreality.
In just a short one-and-a-half-month seclusion to refine the Heart Core, the outside world had undergone such enormous changes.
If it weren’t for the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth still being there, and the lingering resonance of Parasite Species he had once planted, Liang Yuan would have thought he had traveled through time.
"Hmm? Is this Yangshan?"
Soon, Liang Yuan reached the vicinity of Yangshan, and from afar, he saw three mountain peaks connected together across the vast snowy field.
Compared to the once lush green hills, the three mountain peaks before him were now entirely snow-white.
Furthermore, the mountain peaks seemed much shorter.
Liang Yuan realized this was due to rising floodwaters, submerging many areas.
However, what made Liang Yuan’s face darken was the sight of huge boats standing in the snowfields surrounding Yangshan, Meishan, and Lingyun Slope.
A group of people dressed in military uniforms were gliding and patrolling the snowy grounds.
This gave Liang Yuan a sense of unease.
"Military... is it the Guangfu Military District? Why are they here?"
"And judging by their stance, they’re clearly patrolling."
Liang Yuan’s eyes narrowed; if it’s a patrol, why didn’t Yangshan conduct its own patrols?
What has happened at Yangshan?
Liang Yuan’s mind raced, and a suspicion arose within him.
"Has the military taken over Yangshan?"
Liang Yuan took a deep breath, and a fierce look appeared in his eyes.
If this were true, he would undoubtedly turn the situation upside down!
Whizz!
Liang Yuan’s figure flickered, rushing through the air, rapidly approaching the skies above Yangshan.
"Woo woo—"
Just as Liang Yuan neared the skies above Yangshan, suddenly, piercing alarm sounds echoed from Yangshan.
Liang Yuan distinctly felt as if he had accidentally triggered some invisible ripple.
"Who is there!"
"Air raid!"
From the top of Yangshan, at Gouwu Pavilion, a stern shout was heard immediately.
Following closely, a soldier in military uniform rushed out and set up a tube-shaped cannon, directly aiming at the sky.
The cannon seemed to have automatic recognition ability, as it automatically adjusted its muzzle to directly target Liang Yuan in the air.
"You have entered the jurisdiction of Yangshan airspace, please identify yourself immediately, or I will fire!"
"You have entered the jurisdiction of Yangshan airspace, please identify yourself immediately, or I will fire!"
"You have entered the jurisdiction of Yangshan airspace, please identify yourself immediately, or I will fire!"
The warning from the loudspeaker repeated three times, hurried and stern.
Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow, revealing his figure in the sky, looking towards Gouwu Pavilion.
Boom!
The soldier below saw Liang Yuan not identifying himself and activated the cannon without saying a word.
In an instant, the cannon muzzle emitted a high-intensity energy beam, roaring towards Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan in the air sneered.
He did not dodge, pressing his hands fiercely onto the energy beam.
Boom!
The energy beam hit Liang Yuan’s palms and was forcibly pushed back by Liang Yuan’s powerful Spiritual Telekinesis!
Rumble!
An intense explosion rapidly unfolded.
The light beam reversed, directly blasting towards the Gouwu Pavilion below.
Inside Gouwu Pavilion, several figures flew out consecutively.
"Quickly dodge!"
"Not good!"
Several people shouted, rapidly dodging in all directions.
Someone clapped their hands, waves of water surging up to form huge ice blocks in the air.
Another pulled out a Flying Saber, fiercely throwing it towards Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan focused his mind, instantly freezing the weapons in the void.
The intense booming sound drew the attention of many people from Yangshan.
"Who are you, daring to confront the military!"
Whew!
A figure shot strongly from the direction of the Fire Bamboo Forest halfway up the mountain.
Following closely, several figures flew up to the sky alongside him.
Liang Yuan glanced at them, his face revealing a sneer.
The first person flying over, unknown to him, was a burly man with a bushy beard in military uniform.
The visitor tightened his fists, raising his hand to strike.
Instantly, a terrifying Energy Fist Force blasted over.
Liang Yuan casually swatted it!
Rumble!
The void seemed to collapse entirely, air cracking open with the fierce force of the strike.
The energy light sphere exploded before it could approach Liang Yuan!
The bearded military man was sent flying back to the ground with a single slap!
His speed of recoiling was several times faster than when he flew up!
Rumble!
The person was smashed into the Yang Mountain Forest, causing a fierce explosion and triggering large patches of snow to collapse.
The few people rushing up quickly halted, looking at Liang Yuan in shock.
The bearded man in military uniform was a skilled expert with a Main Attribute as high as 68 points.
Yet he was beaten back at the first encounter.
How could this not shock them?
"Who are you!"
"Do you know who we are? We are Guangfu Military personnel! How dare you attack us? Do you wish to die?"
Among the few, someone immediately resorted to their background, threatening Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan sneered: "Guangfu Military, well, very well, you’re not staying in Guangfu, but coming to my territory to act arrogantly?"
"Your territory?"
The few were taken aback, then someone suddenly came to a realization.
"Are you from Yangshan?"
At this moment, a roar came from the forest, the bearded military man flying up into the sky again.
His face was dark and somber, yet his eyes were full of fear towards Liang Yuan.
Simultaneously, the commotion here drew increasing attention.
Several more figures flew in swiftly.
Leading was a woman with a fiery figure.
Her icy and murderous expression melted in disbelief and joy upon seeing Liang Yuan.
"Liang Yuan!"
"Is it really you, Liang Yuan!"
Liang Yuan turned to see her, immediately feeling relieved, and shouted: "Ding Yan."
The visitor was indeed Ding Yan.
Following her were Gu Feng and Zhang Peng.
Upon seeing Liang Yuan, the two couldn’t help but show ecstatic expressions.
"Mr. Liang!"
"Mr. Liang, is it truly you!"
Ding Yan couldn’t care about so many people, swiftly moving to stand before Liang Yuan.
Her eyes reddened as she said: "Where have you been? Do you know how long you’ve been gone? It’s been 46 days! Do you know how worried we were?"
Feeling her emotion, Liang Yuan’s heart warmed, reaching out to embrace her: "I didn’t expect refining the Heart Core of the Floating Island would take so long, sorry for making you worried."
"How have you all been? How’s Sister Mei and the others?"
He was most worried about Sister Mei and the others, simultaneously casting a cold glance at the military personnel.
