nNew Journey, Explorer Team 001!
nHe looked at the information in his mind.
nLi Yueming looked interested.
nAfter so many deductions,
nThis was the first time he had seen other humans outside the Underground World.
nTo him.
nThis was undoubtedly a very attractive discovery.
nAccording to the information revealed by Zhou Wuhai,
nFallout Shelter 0911 had been occupied by monsters many years ago.
nAnd now.
nWhat were the identities of the strange people who appeared in the deduction?
nThey were survivors of Fallout Shelter 0911.
nOr was it some other unknown force?
nHe thought about it for a long time.
nLi Yueming could not come up with any accurate conclusions.
nNext.
nLi Yueming performed more than ten deductions.
nOverall.
nHe had gained a lot from these deductions.
nHe had yet to step out of the Underground World.
nHowever, he had checked most of the surroundings of the Surface World.
nMoreover, he had collected a lot of extremely precious information.
nNow, he finally had the confidence to officially step foot on the Surface World.
nOf course.
nBefore that.
nThe Underground World still needed to make some necessary preparations.
nHe wasted no time.
nThat night.
nLi Yueming gathered all the members of the Star Moon Alliance for an emergency meeting.
nThe meeting had three core elements.
nThe first.
nIncrease efforts to scale up the earthworm farms.
nNo matter when or where.
nFood was always the basic necessity for the development of civilization.
nThe second.
nTo form a new unit.
nThe official name of the new army was kept a secret for the time being. The members would be chosen from the secret guards of the Star Moon Alliance.
nEvery one of them had to be an elite among elites.
nThe third.
nTo strengthen the talents of the Underground World.
nFrom the day the order was given.
nAll six to eighteen-year-olds had to attend classes every week.
nAfter announcing the decision.
nThe Star-Moon Alliance’s members began to get busy.
nAfter destroying the remaining forces of the three kings,
nThe Star-Moon Alliance was now fully deserving of the title of Ruler of the Underground.
nNo faction or individual dared to challenge the current Alliance.
nTherefore.
nThe order that Li Yueming read out was executed very quickly.
nThe first was scaling up the earthworm farming.
nThey lived in a world where resources were extremely poor.
nThe importance of stable, nutritious food goes without saying.
nThe execution of this order was also the fastest.
nLi Yueming finished his meeting that day.
nThe next day, the various sewers had already begun to recruit more workers to increase production and cultivate.
nAt the same time.
nThe formation of the new troops was also in full swing.
nThe Alliance was very curious about the mission of this army.
nHowever, Li Yueming had never revealed it to anyone.
nTherefore.
nMany members could only make wild guesses.
nHowever, this did not affect the members’ enthusiasm.
nThe reason was simple.
nThis was because Li Yueming had said during the meeting that he would be the leader of the newly established team.
nThat’s right.
nThis alone was enough to drive many members crazy.
nAs for the last order.
nThis was the most difficult one to implement.
nThe Underground was neither big nor small.
nThere would always be some stubborn fellows among the hundred thousand refugees.
nJust studying only is useless.
nIn order to let these guys go to the public schools established by the various sewers,
nThe patrols under the Star Moon Alliance had spent a lot of effort on this.
nHowever, the effect was still very ordinary.
nMany people would resist even if they were forcefully taken to school.
nIt was considered a good attitude to have even if they were not interested in learning.
nSome of them would even openly disrupt the order of the classroom.
nFinally.
nLi Yueming got someone to spread the news.
nHe said that in the future, when the Star Moon Alliance recruited members and workers, they would only accept those with outstanding academic results.
nOnly then was this time-consuming and labor-intensive system promoted.
nAfter doing all this,
nAnother year passed.
nLi Yueming was sixteen years old.
nHe sensed that time was of the essence.
nIn the past year.
nThe entire Star Moon Alliance turned into a huge work machine under his hands.
nFirst of all.
nThey promoted large-scale farming of earthworms.
nThis technique was improved and perfected by Li Yueming.
nIt was already quite mature.
nCurrently, the world is still short of resources.
nHowever, many ordinary civilians had enough to fill their stomachs.
nDuring festive seasons, they could even have meat.
nThis revived the originally lifeless Underground World and ushered in a rare wave of prosperity.
nAnd because of the compulsory education plan.
nMore and more talents began to appear in the entire Underground World.
nMost of these people chose to join the Star Moon Alliance, providing an endless supply of new blood for the development.
nIn addition,
nLi Yueming’s team of explorers had also been established.
nWhen the team was first established, there were a total of 100 people.
nZhou Wuhai was the team’s martial arts instructor.
nWang Fei was the vice-captain.
nEvery one of them was an outstanding warrior who had stood out from thousands of competitors.
nBut even so…
nUnder the torture of Li Yueming’s intensive training plan,
nAfter training for half a year.
nThere were less than 30 members left in the entire Exploration Team.
nEventually.
nLi Yueming taught the remaining thirty members the new breathing technique that had been modified several times.
nThis version of the breathing technique was more perfect than the original breathing technique.
nMoreover, as long as it was not extremely exhausting.
nThe new breathing technique will not affect the user’s lifespan.
nOf course.
nLi Yueming’s breathing technique was much more violent than theirs.
nAfter obtaining the training method.
nThe physical fitness of the Exploration Team improved by leaps and bounds.
nThey became the first batch of super soldiers under Li Yueming.
nIt had unparalleled combat strength.
nOn this day.
nLi Yueming’s sixteenth birthday.
nHe looked at the determined members of the Exploration Team below the stage.
nLi Yueming’s expression was solemn.
nHe took a deep breath and said, “I’m sure you’re very curious why I established a new army and why I’m so strict with you during training!”
nBelow the stage.
nA group of strong youths said in unison, “Teacher, you don’t have to explain to us. Your orders are everything!”
nHearing the youngsters’ answers,
nLi Yueming smiled.
nHe did not doubt the team’s loyalty to him.
nHowever, the more this was the case, the more Li Yueming felt uneasy.
nHe looked around.
nLi Yueming’s gaze swept across the faces of every youth below the stage.
nMost of them had yet to start a family and were at the peak of their lives.
nIf not for the Cataclysm.
nAt this moment, they should be playing games and eating desserts.
nOr be wooing beautiful girls one after another.
nBut now…
nHowever, because of him, they are about to embark on a path where they might not be able to return.
nEven though Li Yueming had a heart of stone.
nAt this moment, he was a little moved.
nAfter some thought, he said, “You’ve already passed the training plan I’ve drawn up for you. Now, I’ll announce the mission and responsibility you’re about to take on!”
nHearing this,
nThe expressions of the youths below the stage all tensed up.
nIn reality.
nEven though Li Yueming did not mention it once.
nHowever, they could already vaguely guess Li Yueming’s goal from the training content.
nThere was no hesitation.
nThe team member straightened his neck and said excitedly, “We are willing to sacrifice our lives for Teacher!!”
nHe looked at the team members below the stage.
nLi Yueming didn’t have much of an expression on his face. “I don’t need you to sacrifice your lives, nor do I need you to pledge your loyalty to me to the death! Next, the mission I gave you will have a slim chance of survival. You can choose to refuse to participate. I won’t force any of you!”
nA young man below the stage laughed when he heard that.
nAmong them, Wang Fei was the first to stand up and retort, “Teacher, from the moment we joined this team, we never thought of leaving alive!”
nSeeing this situation,
nLi Yueming was silent for a long time.
nHe suddenly smiled.
nHe said frankly, “You are named Explorer 001. You are the first advance party of the underground humans to the Surface World!”
n“Next, you will face a Surface World civilization that is completely different from the Underground World!”
n“If the exploration is successful, you will be recorded in history thousands of years later. Your parents, your wives, and all the Human compatriots in the entire 0911 underground fallout shelter civilization will be proud of you!”
n“Of course…”
n“More likely, you will be buried in the mouths of wild beasts and become a pile of feces in the stomachs of wild beasts that no one cares about!”
n“That’s all I have to say!”
n“I’ll give you three days to consider!”
n“Three days later, if you still choose to persevere, then gather here!”
n
