Lu Sheng and Han Xiao walked into the underground tunnel and took the elevator that went straight down.
The old and spacious elevator let out a faint creaking sound.
Lu Sheng adjusted his clothes.
"How's the situation?"
"Your family members are doing well. They've all successfully taken refuge under the protection of the telekinesis department, but … a few of your distant children are infected."
"You've done your best." Lu Sheng looked up at the changing floor numbers.
"Are my uncle's family alright?"
"They're fine. We've already taken measures to quarantine them," Wei Handong replied.
"Hiss …"
The elevator door slowly opened. There was a circle of armored soldiers guarding the door.
All of them were wearing fully armored exoskeletons. This type of armor was much weaker than mechs, but its protection was far better than normal bulletproof vests. It was one of the best pieces of equipment for riot control in the city.
"Attention! Salute! "
The leading armored soldier put down his energy gun, pressed his chest toward Lu Sheng, and lowered his head to salute.
The rest of the soldiers also did the same in unison.
Lu Sheng glanced at this floor.
The entire floor was empty. Other than the armored soldiers, there were all sorts of high-tech security devices.
"We've set up twenty-five lines of defense here. It's enough to deal with ambushes, infiltration, external sabotage, long-range bombing, hacking, and other assault methods," the armored soldier captain quickly explained.
"Very good." Lu Sheng nodded.
"There's no direct elevator from here. You'll need to go through this floor to reach the refuge area on the next floor," Wei Handong explained.
"Let's go." Lu Sheng walked out of the elevator. One of the soldiers was assigned to lead them. They carefully passed through the various lines of defense and circled around a few times. Soon, they entered through a secret door in the wall.
After going down another flight of stairs, they finally reached the true refuge floor.
As a huge metal door sealed by a pressure valve slowly opened, Lu Sheng walked in, and immediately felt as if the world around him had opened up.
What entered his eyes was a huge plaza that was hundreds of meters wide and shaped like an empty space.
The inside of the plaza was divided into three floors. Like a sandwich, there were people taking refuge everywhere.
Each floor had a small square room of the same size.
Some fully-automated mini delivery aircrafts shuttled back and forth between the rooms like bees, delivering all kinds of supplies and drinking water.
"The soundproofing here is very good." Lu Sheng could only hear a very soft voice, but more of it was the humming of the aircraft's engines.
"The soundproofing here is of the highest grade, A, because it's to prevent the ground from being shaken by large-scale sonic weapons. Therefore, when it was first built, it was built according to the highest grade, "the armored soldier explained.
"Alright, you can go. I'll lead the way," Wei Handong instructed the soldier.
"Yes, sir!" The soldier stood at attention, turned around, and quickly trotted away.
Under Wei Handong's guidance, Lu Sheng stepped onto the automatic conveyor belt.
These conveyor belts could transport people to a fixed location as long as the location was entered.
Wei Handong explained to Lu Sheng while setting up the location.
"Up until now, your relatives still think that their placement is an act of the government. We haven't shown them any special treatment."
"It's impossible for them not to communicate with outsiders. Once there's a comparison, they'll naturally notice. There's no point in hiding this. "
Lu Sheng said calmly. "Let's go and take a look first. Let's go to uncle's place first."
"Yes."
…
…
Wang Junhao took the ration bag he just received and walked into the small house he was living in. His face still had a hint of confusion.
Originally, they were still working in the unit, and everything was fine. Suddenly, there were screams from outside. All kinds of zombies seemed to have gathered together and exploded at once. In an instant, the world view that he had built up over the years collapsed.
Before he could regain his senses, a large group of police officers rushed into the unit and gathered all of them to investigate. Then, they were transported by truck to this fallout shelter.
Along the way in the truck, they really saw the endless tide of zombies. There were also countless powerful creatures with different abilities.
In the sky, on the ground, and even underground, some incomprehensible monsters could suddenly appear.
"It feels like this is not the original world we lived in." Wang Junhao sighed. The only fortunate thing was that his daughter and son were safe. Only his nephew had not been heard from.
He had already spent money to ask for help, but they didn't accept it.
"Uncle!" Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
When Wang Junhao heard the sound, he immediately became excited and quickly went to open the door.
Wang Cheng and Wang Ziyun, who were in the room, quickly came out.
They all thought that Wang Mu was dead. It was almost a miracle that he could survive in such a chaotic environment.
Without sufficient protection, a normal person was a piece of cake.
When the three of them saw Lu Sheng standing in front of the door, they were all happy.
At such a critical juncture, having one more person was always an additional strength.
"Come in!" Wang Junhao pulled Lu Sheng into the room.
"How did you get here? Did the police escort you here? "Wang Junhao quickly asked.
Lu Sheng was pulled into the room and sat down.
"I have some connections with the people in Jiumingtang. They helped me arrange it. Previously, I pulled you guys into the first batch list in advance. It was also because I found a friend here," he explained.
Wang Junhao was relieved. He felt that something was wrong. He had no money or power. The people in the first batch were mostly rich and powerful people. They were not related to his family.
"Brother …" Wang Ziyun slowly walked over and called out obediently.
She almost died in a car accident. Compared to before, she was much more mature now. At the same time, she was one of the people who knew a little about Lu Sheng.
"Yes, where's your cousin?" Lu Sheng looked at her.
"Sister Jing lives on the other side. She's next to us," Wang Ziyun quickly replied.
"What about the others? Are they all here? "Lu Sheng asked again.
"They're all good. It's just … I don't know what's going to happen in the future. Brother, you're well-informed. Can you help us find out what's going on outside? "Wang Ziyun begged.
"I just came back from outside. Basically, there's no problem. I just need to check the status of the virus," Lu Sheng replied. "Don't worry. If there's any news from my friend, I'll inform you immediately."
"Okay. Thank you, brother."
Lu Sheng stood up.
"It's good that you guys are fine. I'll go back first. I live in another refuge area. If I want to come here, I need to find a friend."
"Okay. Go do what you need to do. The signal here is not good. If I could use my phone, I could contact you anytime," Wang Junhao said helplessly. "Why don't you wait for your aunt to come back and see you?"
"Forget it. Time is tight. I don't want to make things difficult for my friend." Lu Sheng shook his head.
"Go ahead …" Wang Junhao could only agree. "This time, it's all thanks to your friend. When you have time, please thank him for us."
"Okay. I know." Lu Sheng nodded.
He got up and declined his uncle's offer again. Finally, he walked out of the room and closed the door.
"Let's go."
Lu Sheng exhaled and said to Wei Handong who was guarding not far away.
"Master, are we still going to see your parents?"
"Forget it. As long as they're fine." Lu Sheng said lightly. "How's the cleanup outside going?"
"With the help of your extra subordinates, we're progressing very quickly. We'll be able to clear all the zombies by tomorrow morning."
"What about the concentration of the virus?"
"The concentration has been diluted using the antivirus spray. The vaccine has also been quickly developed. It's being inoculated. "Wei Handong explained.
Lu Sheng nodded.
As expected of a superpower world. The Motu Empire was also a huge empire that spanned across galaxies. Usually, it was hard to tell.
But in this critical period, it could completely reflect the comprehensive response of a country.
If this virus was placed in a low-energy world, it could destroy the entire planet. But in less than a day, they quickly developed a vaccine and a way to fight it. The speed of their response completely displayed the Motu Empire's powerful technological prowess.
"Let's go. We'll talk as we go." Lu Sheng stepped onto the conveyor belt.
"Yes. Also, the collection of scale stone mines has almost reached its limit. We lack management talent. We need to recruit a large number of mining professionals. The Ministry of Commerce lost more than 70% of its members. The gap is too big. "
"Then we'll recruit refugees. I don't want the process. I just want the results. Of course, we need to ensure the most basic order and justice. We're not thugs. We're good citizens who are in tune with the government. We need to make sure that the people have a good enough trust in us. "
"Wang Mu!"
The two of them were standing on the conveyor belt and walking towards the exit.
Suddenly, a clear female voice came from afar.
Lu Sheng turned his gaze and saw a woman with long red hair. She was quickly jogging towards him.
The woman was Zhen He, who he had a meal with before.
She was still dressed in the same capable outfit, a red t-shirt and light blue skinny jeans. When she ran in front of Lu Sheng, her slender legs were slightly closed. She bent over and panted heavily.
"It's not easy to see you." Zhen He panted and looked up helplessly.
"You go out first. I'll come out in a bit." Lu Sheng said.
Wei Handong nodded and stepped onto the conveyor belt again, leaving into the distance.
There were many people going up and down the conveyor belt. The two of them were not conspicuous. But he didn't expect Zhen He to recognize him at first glance.
"What's up?" Lu Sheng's expression softened when faced with a good person like Zhen He who didn't know his background. She was a good person who was kind to him.
"Nothing. I just … wanted to thank you!" Zhen He raised her head and looked at the man who almost changed her life.
Ever since she started working in that club, she more or less understood that Wang Mu, who could easily introduce her to that club, was not as simple as he looked.
