Chapter 76 The Lockdown

Tang Li had received word from Longcheng that in Haicheng, after the great tsunami, many high-level officials had become unreachable. Those who could be contacted had no idea about the current situation of the Governor-General's Mansion.

It was basically confirmed that a mutiny had occurred in the Haicheng Governor-General's Mansion, and Haicheng had completely fallen out of control.

Xue Keyue told Tang Li that Longcheng would fully support the underground city of G City, and the Jiangcheng Governor-General's Mansion would also provide assistance.

However, official formal action would not be taken until after the extreme cold season.

Before that, the G City shelter had to hold on by itself.

And the best way to ensure the G City shelter could last until after the extreme cold season was to completely seal off the underground city.

The authorities had considered all sorts of natural disasters when designing the underground city.

This included floods, mudslides, volcanic eruptions, acid rain, and other situations that could damage surface structures of the underground city and impede communication with the outside world.

Therefore, not only was each module of the underground city designed to be self-sustaining, but each underground city could also be manually isolated from the outside.

Important surface structures, such as entrance and exit passages, would also receive key protection.

Once completely isolated from the outside and in a sealed state, the underground city could survive solely on its internal circulation, without relying on surface facilities.

This gave the underground city the ability to resist natural disasters, as well as the ability to withstand external military damage.

Even if the surface were subjected to a nuclear strike, the underground city would remain unaffected.

Therefore, by ordering the G City underground city into a completely sealed state, the Haicheng authorities were unable to do anything to the people inside.

However, if everyone remained in the underground city, it would be too passive.

After all, the underground city was built by humans and could be dug open by humans.

Currently, it was difficult to excavate due to the severe cold.

But as soon as the extreme cold season passed, the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch would definitely mobilize personnel to directly dig open the underground city.

Although the Jiangcheng authorities and Longcheng had promised to provide rescue after spring, Tang Li did not wish to place all her hopes on others.

Therefore, after leaving enough supplies for over 120,000 people for 3 months in the underground city, Tang Li left the underground city alone to find an opportunity to deal with the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch.

The extreme cold season would end on April 5th.

That was still more than a month away.

If she had not resolved the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch by the end of these three months, then there would be no point in her returning to the G City underground city.

As for why she left alone again, it was naturally for convenience.

With only herself, she could replicate powerful weapons like the wireless brain-controlled robots and combat mechs in her spatial dimension at any time and place, allowing people in the underground city to control them remotely.

In reality, she alone was an army of thousands!

And this was something the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch would never have anticipated.

After controlling Fan Pangzi and the armed personnel who were sent yesterday under the guise of the Haicheng Governor-General's Mansion, they did not obtain any clues about the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch from their minds.

This indicated that the Saint Light Organization's Z Country branch knew about the memory reading technology in the G City underground city and had long been wary of it.

It was also expected that they would send Fan Pangzi to deliver himself to the G City underground city.

Tang Li understood their intentions after a moment's thought.

Their target had never been the G City underground city.

Because they also possessed the technology for underground cities; they could create it with time.

What they wanted was the seemingly endless supply reserve behind "Universal Merchant Boss Li"!

The group of 33 people, including Fan Pangzi, was merely bait they had released to lure the enemy out.
