Chapter 690: Chapter 382: Wherever the sun and moon shine, all belongs to the king’s land!_2
But tears flowed uncontrollably from the frail woman’s eyes, becoming even more intense.
The others watching this scene sighed helplessly.
In the dark apocalypse, life is as insignificant as grass.
They had seen such similar events countless times before and didn’t know how many times it would repeat every day.
"Lies!"
"Wuyou City is a lie, we’ve all been deceived!"
"In this cruel and merciless dark world, where is there a carefree sanctuary? It’s all lies!"
Someone mentally broke down, crying out and roaring.
Meanwhile, dozens of simulators’ faces turned pale, frantically pouring spiritual power into the grand array, trying to maintain the light screen for just a moment longer.
But under the onslaught of countless dark creatures, even those great cities guarded by the Sun Tyrants couldn’t hold.
Let alone their incomplete orbital array?
Not long after.
The light screen of the grand array was overwhelmed, like a shattered mirror with countless cracks appearing on its surface.
Finally, with a slight ’crack’, it completely broke apart.
The grand array fell.
Endless dark creatures surged in from all directions, like a river bursting its banks, threatening to engulf everyone.
Watching those hideous and terrifying monsters, the little girl trembled with fear, curling up in the frail woman’s arms and tightly shutting her eyes.
Seeing this, the others showed looks of despair, abandoning all struggle and resistance, staying put, waiting for death to arrive.
But at this moment.
The sun hung in the sky, its light blazing.
Letting them feel a warmth they hadn’t experienced in a long time!
Yet those dark creatures, like demons under the fiery sun, let out a scream in an instant and were evaporated into black smoke.
Soon after, a dazzling light screen expanded from afar, enveloping everyone within it.
They were in the light screen, feeling warm all over, like soaking in a hot spring, with all fatigue and fear vanishing without a trace.
"Is that the direction of Wuyou City?"
"Great, we are finally saved!"
The group cried out in joy, immediately raising a deafening cheer like thunder.
Although they weren’t clear about what had happened to Wuyou City, nor understood why the city two thousand miles away emitted such strong light.
But they only knew one thing.
That they had all survived and no longer needed to fear death and darkness!
"Mom, is this heaven?"
The little girl heard the commotion, cautiously opened her eyes, looked up, and asked inquisitively.
"Yes, we have finally reached heaven."
The frail woman showed a heartfelt smile on her pale face.
As long as they reached Wuyou City, they wouldn’t have to suffer hunger anymore.
And there would be clean water, soft fluffy bread, as well as stable housing and jobs.
By then, everyone could support themselves and live in peace and happiness.
What is this if not heaven?
And similar scenes were still playing out within a thousand miles around.
Many teams of survivors were struggling to fend off the attacks of dark creatures.
There were also simulators fighting bloodily, severely injured and on the verge of death, about to become food for the dark creatures.
And border towns one by one, already abandoned by the Great Yan Royal Family, most simulators had already left in advance.
Leaving only simulators with low power and millions of ordinary people waiting to die in the city.
But as a thousand miles were included in Lu Yuan’s domain, not a single dark creature was left, all being completely driven away.
And those surviving ordinary people and simulators, under the influence of the Undead Calamity, immediately became Lu Yuan’s most devout followers!
"Only an additional seven hundred million population?"
With the Territory Core, Lu Yuan could instantly know all the information within his domain.
When he saw that there were only seven hundred million survivors within a thousand miles, he couldn’t help but shake his head.
Although seven hundred million people sound like a lot.
But his domain area was larger than eight Xia Countries.
Yet except for Wuyou City.
In such a vast domain, there were only a mere seven hundred million people.
Just from this point alone.
You could see how severe the current situation was and how tragic the civilian casualties were.
"It seems not only Jiang City but probably most of the Southern Domain has been abandoned by the Great Yan Royal Family."
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, vaguely guessing the intentions of the Great Yan Royal Family.
In his perception.
Within a thousand miles, nine out of ten cities were empty.
Those simulators and ordinary people with backgrounds had long since left this place for more prosperous and powerful cities.
Leaving only most ordinary people waiting to die in empty cities.
But the territory of Great Yan was vast and boundless, still possessing countless secret realms and small worlds.
Even if the entire Southern Domain were abandoned, it would be just a drop in the ocean, not even worth mentioning in terms of its overall strength.
"If things continue this way, the Southern Domain will become a pawn, and the situation will inevitably become more chaotic."
Lu Yuan felt a sense of urgency.
The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
The more territories occupied, the more responsibilities required.
But currently, with the Empire divided and everyone occupying their own territory.
The Great Yan Empire was struggling to even look after itself, let alone having any strength left to manage those frontier territories?
Thus abandoning the Southern Domain was only a matter of time.
"Let’s first manage Wuyou City well, and when I have enough manpower, expanding the territory won’t be too late."
"Additionally, the Chosen Trial, there’s no time to lose, I should also head to the Martial Arts World."
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan immediately left all the affairs for Wuxin to handle.
How to settle the refugees, how to reasonably plan the city’s layout and development direction, how to obtain enough food and resources.
And the food, clothing, and shelter of 1.9 billion people, as well as how to minimize resource loss to maximize the value of all the population.
Each of these tasks could exhaust the brain cells of a King-Sealing Giant.
Moreover, under the blessing of the Supreme Time Law.
The time flow rate in Lu Yuan’s domain was three hundred times faster than the outside world.
Reaching the true meaning of one day outside equals one year in the domain.
This also caused Wuyou City to undergo constant, unpredictable changes day by day.
Even if Lu Yuan could manage, it would require a massive amount of time and energy, with barely enough time for cultivation.
Fortunately, Wuxin had once received the baptism of the Will of the Heavens and could continually grow, being the top artificial intelligence in the Main World.
With Wuxin’s assistance.
Lu Yuan didn’t have to worry about these trivial matters, being able to put his full focus and time into enhancing his power without any concerns.
After all, power is the greatest support and reliance.
If there isn’t enough powerful strength to protect all this, then no matter how well Wuyou City is built.
It would be just a mirage, a castle in the air, shattering at a single blow.
"Master, you just got back and you’re leaving again, can’t you rest for a while?"
Wuxin, pouting, clutched Lu Yuan’s arm, feeling very distressed, unwilling to let him be so tired.
"The situation in the Main World is rapidly worsening, I must hurry to enhance my strength."
Lu Yuan was also somewhat helpless.
Since he became a simulator, his whole life has been like a wound-up spring, either busy cultivating or reincarnating in another world, with no moment of rest.
Even with his current strength, he couldn’t help but feel a bit weary.
Because this fatigue did not come from the body, but from the spirit.
Yet he dared not stop, nor could he stop.
Because having experienced six cycles of reincarnation, it meant the fate of six simulation worlds and countless living beings were in his hands.
If he made any mistake, these worlds would likely be invaded by darkness, eternally falling into shadow.
Moreover, the path of cultivation, like rowing upstream, not advancing means retreating.
He would rather endure a bit more hardship, make a little more effort.
Than face the day when he must watch his loved ones die one by one due to insufficient strength.
Spending the rest of his life in regret and self-blame.
"I should set off, take care of Wuyou City, I’ll be back soon."
Lu Yuan carefully instructed.
Then under Wuxin’s reluctant gaze.
He transformed into a streak of light, once again entering the Simulation Space.
