Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Chapter 1155: Chapter 724: Peril Lurking Everywhere, Storm on the Horizon

Only during the weekly outdoor classes, or on Saturdays and Sundays, can one go outside.

This is also a good thing for those in the Outer City.

For parents, the most important concern is their children’s education. Now, the Big Camphor Tree Base has solved the education problem for them, allowing them to have more time to devote to the construction and protection of the Big Camphor Tree Base.

After Old Qin explained, Third Uncle added, ”Yes, there are designated teachers in the Inner City who can teach some essential knowledge. In the early stages, there are also combat classes. Later, they can choose a specialty and will be arranged for specialized practical learning in due course.

Currently, there are specialties such as combat, agriculture, medicine, and construction... Surely, with an increasing population, more specialties will be added.”

Although the Ant was here earlier than the Jackals, he also had never entered the Inner City, so he did not know about these things.

Hearing this, he clicked his tongue in wonder.

Has the Big Camphor Tree Base really come this far!

The Jackals listened earnestly and attentively to Third Uncle’s narration, and as he heard these things, his expression grew increasingly joyous.

He had always worried that his child, without contact with peers, would lack a childhood. He was even more concerned that, with his limited knowledge, he wouldn’t be able to provide Xiao Yong with a well-rounded development.

Now hearing about the Inner City, he immediately asked, ”Can Xiao Yong also go?”

Third Uncle nodded and said, ”I can make that decision. No problem.”

Xiao Yong, who had been eating with his head down, stopped and tugged at his father’s sleeve, saying, ”Dad, I don’t want to be separated from you. I want to be with you all the time.”

The Jackals was about to persuade him when Third Uncle cheerfully said, ”No worries, don’t rush. In a few days, when those children return to the Outer City, let Xiao Yong meet them. Xiao Yong will naturally want to go learn then.”

He still remembers He Chao’s daughter, He Xiaoya. At first, she was extremely reluctant to leave He Chao, but in just a few days, she made a group of peers, and now she probably wouldn’t even want to leave.

Hearing this, the Jackals felt that Third Uncle made sense, so he nodded.

Then he poured a glass of wine for Third Uncle, filled another one for himself, and toasted to Third Uncle, saying, ”Captain, no need for words of thanks; everything is in the drink.”

Clink!

He drank a full glass of liquor in one go.

Third Uncle smiled and also finished his glass.

Everyone in the room was eating and drinking, occasionally talking about past events, invoking everyone’s reminiscing.

....

In the Inner City.

After finishing dinner, Li Yu went to the basement.

The second floor of the basement.

After seeing no one there, he opened the door to the Meditation Room.

Closed and locked it again.

Then opened the door to the secret room once more.

After going down a dozen steps, he arrived at the secret room.

Two months ago, there was a heavy rain, and the floodwaters submerged the area below the cliff.

He hadn’t checked the situation in the secret room since, and now it still looked the same as when he left it, with no water inside.

Then he opened a hidden door, passed through a tunnel of several dozen meters, and arrived at the edge of the cliff, seeing the iron railing still intact.

After inspecting, he saw the water level of the lake below the cliff had dropped to an extremely low level—probably only about two meters deep.

Finding no issues, he returned to the secret room and sealed the airtight steel door.

Then he climbed back up the steps, closed the door to the secret room, and sat quietly on a cushion in the Meditation Room.

A lot of things have happened recently, and he needs to calm his mind and think about them one by one.

First is the Western Alliance. After solving the issue at Orange Continent, he considered leading a team over to resolve the potential threat directly.

However, he clearly understands that the distance of two thousand kilometers is time-consuming and laborious, and it would require bringing many people along.

Because now the information about the Western Alliance is still from a few months ago, learned from Hai Chao and Gao Ru.

Back then, the heavy rain and flood hadn’t occurred yet.

He just doesn’t know what the situation is like over there now.

So he has adopted a strategy of waiting, increasing the alert level at Big Camphor Tree Base, and also strengthening control over Xin City and Gan City.

This matter can only wait.

Furthermore, the second issue is the construction of the Third Outer City.

With the steel that Third Uncle and the others have transported back, there’s enough to build two more Third Outer Cities.

But since the steel has already been discovered, it should be transported back sooner rather than later.

Lest changes occur later, making it difficult to find them again.

This matter will wait a few more days until Third Uncle leads another team out; probably about three more trips will be enough to transport all that steel back.

The third issue is the current personnel changes at the base.

Currently, cooperative personnel and extra staff are busy with construction and transport. Once they finish helping with the Third Outer City’s construction,

some extra staff will definitely be promoted to Outer City personnel, and accordingly, some cooperative personnel will be elevated to extra staff.

This situation will inevitably increase pressure on food supplies.

But fortunately, the current greenhouses and indoor farming in the Inner City and the First and Second Outer Cities can still support the demand.

Once the Third Outer City is completed, rapidly opening new planting areas and constructing greenhouses will produce more food.
