Night of apocalypse

In the City of Stars City Lord's Mansion office.

Yun Xiaoxi lay on her desk, staring at the barrage in the live broadcast room. Her brows furrowed more and more as she watched, and she suddenly showed strong anger.

Her right hand was directly holding the Crimson Sword. With a flick of her thumb, the sharp sword was unsheathed.

Shen Qiu heard the voice, turned around and saw Yun Xiaoxi's very angry look, and couldn't help but asked in shock.

"Xiao Xi, what's wrong with you? Are you so angry?"

"Hmph, these people dare to call you crazy! It's really too much. It's intolerable."

Yun Xiaoxi said angrily.

When Shen Qiu heard this, he smiled dumbly and persuaded Yun Xiaoxi.

"It doesn't matter, let them scold me. The harder they scold me, the harder I will harvest them. Isn't this just adding buffs?"

"Then I can't scold you!"

Yun Xiaoxi puffed up her face and said angrily.

"It's okay, it's all trivial. Let them dance. The more joyful the dance, the better! Now I don't care about them scolding me or anything like that. What really gives me a headache is how to harvest next."

Shen Qiu had a headache at the end. It was no longer the same as before. He was now the lord of the City of Stars. He could not harvest nakedly and brutally. He had to do it with dignity, and he had to make them hand over the money willingly.

When Tang Kexin and others heard Shen Qiu's words, they looked at Shen Qiu curiously.

"Senior, how do you plan to harvest?"

"I haven't thought about it yet. If it were me before, I wouldn't have so many things to do."

Shen Qiu said with great emotion.

"Oh, senior, what would you have done before?"

"I directly asked them to pay money. If they didn't pay, I would put a weapon on their necks. But it can't be done now. People will grow. The more principles they learn, the deeper they understand the world, and the more worries they have when doing things. , even in disguise, my hands and feet are tied up."

Shen Qiu said helplessly.

"Senior, if you don't know how to get them to hand over the money, I can help you draft a speech."

Tang Kexin said with a smile.

"You can?"

Shen Qiu's eyes lit up and he looked at Tang Kexin with a very surprised expression.

"Have you forgotten what I did before? Didn't I just deceive people into donating money?"

Tang Kexin blinked at Shen Qiu and replied.

When Shen Qiu heard what Tang Kexin said, he immediately reacted and said quickly.

"Quick, quick, help me draft a speech."

"no problem."

Tang Kexin walked directly opposite Shen Qiu, picked up the paper and pen on the desk, leaned over and started writing, and the beautiful words jumped on the paper.

Shen Qiu looked down at the speech drafted by Tang Kexin for harvesting. The more he looked at it, the happier he became. However, when he inadvertently raised his head.

A deep white groove instantly reflected clearly in Shen Qiu's eyes, making people linger over it.

Shen Qiu suddenly felt his blood boiling and moved his eyes to the side in embarrassment.

Yun Xiaoxi on the side looked at Tang Kexin's bumpy figure and was filled with envy.

At this moment, the office door opened, Qi Dong walked in, and asked Shen Qiu uneasily.

"Boss, is this okay? There are too many people gathered outside the City Lord's Mansion, and it looks like they are going crazy."

"There's no rush. I just want them to go crazy. If they don't go crazy, I won't be the only one going crazy."

Shen Qiu replied with a smile.

He was in a very happy mood, as if he had discovered a new world. It turned out that the city lord could still be like this without asking others for anything.

Qi Dong hesitated and said after hearing this.

"What about Vice Chairman Yunkong and the others outside the door?"

"not see."

Shen Qiu shook his head and replied.

In the afternoon, Yan Qing, Qin Li and others surrounded Vice Chairman Yunkong inside and outside the office. They said like ants on a hot pot.

"Lord Yunkong, please make a statement! If we delay any longer, we will be in trouble if the virus spreads along with those refugees. And I heard that this is only the first batch of people entering the city, and there will be a second batch and a third batch tomorrow. Batch!"

"What position can I express? I don't have the final say on this matter. You can talk to Shen Qiu."

Yun Kong was also anxious to death, but what was the use of being anxious?

"The problem is that the city lord has not seen us, and the number of people gathered outside to protest has reached over 100,000. If this continues, the situation will get out of control."

Yan Qing and others were going crazy, feeling like the sky was about to collapse. They never imagined that Shen Qiu would take such a move that was close to suicide.

"You don't have to tell me, of course I know."

Vice Chairman Yunkong replied with a livid face.

Fortunately, the closed door opened at this moment, and Shen Qiu led Yun Xiaoxi and others out of the office.

Yun Kong and others immediately gathered around and asked anxiously.

"Lord City Lord."

"Don't worry, everyone, tell me slowly if you have something to say!"

Shen Qiu raised his hand and replied with a smile.

"Lord City Lord, why are you letting the refugees into the city? Things are going crazy outside now, and the guards can hardly stop the protesters."

Yun Kong suppressed the anger in his heart and asked Shen Qiu in as calm a tone as possible.

In his mind, no one no matter how stupid he is would make such a decision that digs his own grave.

"Don't worry, I have my own reasons for doing this. As for the people protesting outside, I'll go see them right now!"

Shen Qiu replied calmly.

"All right!"

Vice Chairman Yunkong and others were also shocked. Although they did not believe that Shen Qiu could properly resolve the out-of-control situation, they could only act as doctors.

Shen Qiu immediately led Yun Kong and others outside.

Outside the gate of the city lord's palace, a crowd of protesters gathered in darkness on the wide street. If you look closely at these protesters, they are all brightly dressed and wearing various protective masks. Many of them are also equipped with bodyguards.

This is very different from the traditional protest crowd, but the anger is exactly the same.

"We want to see the city lord!"

“Against accepting refugees!”

"I implore the city lord to realize his mistake, immediately change his wrong decision, and expel those refugees from the city!"

Some of the more agitated personnel, such as Long Le and others, even tried to force their way into the city lord's mansion.

It's a pity that there are not just ordinary soldiers at the door. The two huge bodies of Ji Dafu and Roadhog are pushing there, and no one can even think of attacking the city lord's palace.

At this time, Justice Daily Wu Yong reported live to the camera.

"It is now 4:30 in the afternoon. The incident of refugees entering the city has been fermenting for nearly a day. We can see that more and more protestors have gathered at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Everyone is very excited. But so far, the City Lord's Mansion is still the main gate. Keep it tight, the City Lord did not come out or issue any clarification remarks, I will continue to pay attention to the latest developments!"

In the live broadcast room, tens of millions of people in the City of Stars filled the screen with anger and curses.

"Does he dare to come out when he issues such a cerebral palsy decree?"

"Don't be drooled when you come out."

"I'm really convinced these days. Anyone can be a city lord. I can do better than him even in high positions."

Just when everyone's emotions reached their peak, the door to the City Lord's Mansion slowly opened.

Kit Tai Fook and Roadhog both moved to both sides to clear the way.

Shen Qiu led Yun Kong and others out under the spotlight.

For a moment, the protestors at the scene became even more excited, and they shouted one after another.

"protest!"

"Lord City Lord, expel the refugees immediately."

Wu Yong and others immediately picked up their cameras and kept taking pictures.

The flashlight kept flashing.

Shen Qiu looked at the nearly riotous scene, raised his hand and said calmly.

"Everyone, please don't be anxious. Please listen to me quietly. You can't solve the problem by making noise like this."

As Shen Qiu spoke, the turbulent scene gradually became quiet.

Everyone present stared at Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu first sighed slightly, and then apologized extremely tiredly.

"I would like to apologize to you first. I am really too busy with government affairs. I have been busy dealing with it, and now I have made time to see you. I have kept you waiting for a long time."

"We don't listen to this. We just want you to quickly withdraw your policy of accepting refugees."

An inconspicuous middle-aged man immediately shouted loudly.

If you look carefully, you can see that beside this man are Long Le, Yun Feng and other chaebol giants.

It was obvious that this man was the spokesperson promoted by Long Le and other big bosses.

Shen Qiu raised his hand to signal the man to be quiet, and then said with great emotion.

"I know that a large part of the reason why you are gathered here is to protest against the admission of refugees. Regarding this matter, I would like to ask you a few questions."

Everyone was slightly startled, but they didn't expect that instead of explaining, Shen Qiu wanted to ask them in turn.

Yun Kong looked at Shen Qiu and frowned. He felt that Shen Qiu was acting strange today, and the content of his speech was not like his style.

In fact, Yunkong was fully prepared for Shen Qiu to have a conflict with the people below and clean up the mess.

But Shen Qiu seemed to be a different person today, and his words became very tactful.

Of course, Yun Kong would not know that the content of Shen Qiu's speech was drafted by Tang Kexin.

At this time, Shen Qiu asked affectionately.

"I would like to ask everyone present, are the refugees outside the City of Stars members of the Red Alliance? Are they our dear compatriots? Do they share the same blood as us? Are they not outsiders and strangers?"

With this sentence, many people in the originally angry scene became a little unnatural.

Shen Qiu then gave a sincere speech to everyone.

"Everyone, let's ask ourselves, if I listen to your appeal, ruthlessly abandon our compatriots, treat them cold-bloodedly and cruelly, and watch them die in despair in the wild, will you feel at ease? I believe that most people with conscience and love will People can’t bear it! And let’s think about it from another position. If we cold-bloodedly ignore them today, will I do the same next time something like this happens to you?”

When everyone present heard Shen Qiu's words, everyone was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to refute.

Although people's hearts are selfish, even if they are very dissatisfied, there are some things they cannot say out loud.

After all, Shen Qiu is now directly standing on the commanding heights of morality. Anyone who stands up to refute is a ruthless and cold-blooded person, and will be in trouble when the time comes.

But at this time, someone still stood up and said something.

"Lord City Lord, it's not that we don't want to save them, the problem is that they carry the virus."

"Virus? You can rest assured that they have undergone strict inspections before entering the city and are very healthy!"

Shen Qiu directly pushed back the doubters with one sentence.

Everyone at the scene fell into silence, and they didn't know what to say.

Shen Qiu looked at the people who had been fooled by him and squinted at the crowd.

At this time, Bekelen's subordinate Aklu, wearing a metal mask, stood up unceremoniously, stretched out his hand and pointed directly at Shen Qiu and said.

"Sir City Lord, those refugees are carrying the super zombie virus, which is very latent. The Red Alliance can't even guarantee that it can be completely detected. Are you sure it can be detected?"

"this"

Shen Qiu started to act stupid.

"Really, Lord City Lord, please quickly order all those refugees to be expelled, otherwise the entire City of Stars will be destroyed. By then, it will not only be the awakened people who will have problems, but ordinary people will also have problems."

Long Le and others persuaded anxiously.

"This is not good. We are all compatriots. How could we treat our compatriots so cruelly? Think about it, they did not die from the virus, but died from our indifference. How ironic that is. "

Shen Qiu looked very embarrassed.

Long Le and others almost vomited blood after hearing Shen Qiu's words. Why are they pretending at this time? The problem is that they have no way to refute.

No one wants to stand out and be infamy for thousands of years!

At this time, Aluke saw that the fire was almost done, and immediately said to Shen Qiu.

"Lord City Lord, we understand your desire to save your compatriots, but you also have to consider our safety. Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

"There are so many ways to get the best of both worlds."

"How come there isn't? If that doesn't work, why don't you just set up a quarantine area outside the city?"

"Alas! It is unrealistic to establish an isolation area. There are so many refugees. If we really want to establish an isolation area, it will cost a lot of money. It will cost at least 400 to 500 billion blue alliance coins. The City of Stars is now financially tight and really has no money. Forget it. Well, let them come in."

Shen Qiu said with a sigh.

“If we don’t have any money, let’s donate!”

Aluke took the lead in shouting at this time.

As soon as these words came out, Long Le and others immediately became anxious and expressed their opinions one by one.

"Yes, we donate money!"

"Donate money! Create a quarantine!"

Both those who were protesting around Ducheng's main palace and those who were watching the live broadcast expressed their intention to donate money.

Just kidding, if the refugees continue to flow in, not to mention that the business will not be able to continue, they will not have to live. They can still clearly distinguish between life and money.

When Shen Qiu heard everyone at the scene shouting to donate money, she suddenly became happy and decisively struck while the iron was hot and said to everyone.

"Okay! Since everyone is so caring, let's start the donation on the spot, Cerny!"

Artificial intelligence Cerny then projected in front of Shen Qiu.

"Dear Lord City Lord, what are your orders?"

"Open a universal donation channel, and set up a donation list. All donors must be recorded and ranked according to the donation amount. Let all the compatriots who are being rescued know who rescued them, so that they can be grateful to them in the future!"

Shen Qiu said to the artificial intelligence Cerny.

In fact, the reason why Shen Qiu established this donation list is to encourage everyone to donate more.

Another aspect is that he wants to see which group is fat and has donated the least, and then he will deal with it one by one afterwards.

"yes!"

After hearing Shen Qiu's order, the artificial intelligence Cerny immediately sent a donation channel to all people in the Red Alliance area of ​​the City of Stars. Everyone can directly operate it on their bracelets and mobile phones.

At the same time, she activated the regional virtual amplification device, and a virtual donation interface popped up in front of all the protestors at the scene.

People began to enter amounts to donate.

At this time, Cerny projected a huge virtual ranking list in front of the city lord's palace, and the donation rankings on it were constantly refreshed and adjusted.

Shen Qiu raised his bracelet and opened the donation account. The number on it kept beating. In the blink of an eye, it exceeded 500 billion blue alliance coins, and it was still soaring, completely exceeding his expectations.

For a time, Shen Qiu felt happy.

However, Shen Qiu still held it in, as it would be bad if it was discovered later.

At this time, Aklu, who took the lead in shouting for donations, had already retreated while no one was paying attention, blended into the crowd and finally ran away.

More than an hour later, the donation ended, with a total of 1,220.1 billion Blue League coins lying on the donation account.

Shen Qiu looked at this number, suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, bowed deeply to everyone, and solemnly announced.

"As the Lord of the City of Stars, I would like to thank you for your generous donations on behalf of all the suffering compatriots. History will remember your achievements! I will officially send the mechanical army to establish an isolation zone on the border of the City of Stars and the Red Alliance. Come to rescue and accommodate the displaced refugees, and at the same time abolish the refugee reception plan in the city and transfer all refugees in the city."

Many people protesting at the scene breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Shen Qiu's promise.

"Finally solved."

"Yeah, just move them out."

As for the live broadcast room, many people also posted comments.

"It seems that we wrongly blamed the City Lord, and he doesn't want to do this either."

"Hey, every family has a sutra that is difficult to recite. I can only say that it is not easy. It would be great if this matter can be solved satisfactorily."

As the demands of the protesting people were met, the people gathered in the City Lord's Mansion began to disperse, but Long Le and other group bosses did not leave.

Shen Qiu smiled and looked at Long Le and others who were not leaving.

"Do you guys have any more questions?"

"Sir, City Lord, you sent a large number of mechanical legions to guard the City of Stars, and the effect was very good! Why did the number of mechanical legions shrink significantly after a few days of implementation?"

"Yeah, I can't even see a few of them now."

When Shen Qiu heard this, he smiled and apologized to Long Le and others.

"Oh, aren't there a lot of refugees at the border? The contagion is extremely strong. As a last resort, I can only divide part of the mechanical army out, so the manpower is naturally insufficient!"

"What about our safety?"

"I can send someone to protect you."

"Most of the awakened people are now isolated. It's not easy to rely on ordinary soldiers alone."

"I also know that the soldiers do not have the strength of the mechanical corps, but there is nothing we can do about it. The number of mechanical corps is limited, so there is nothing I can do. But don't worry, in order to deal with emergencies, I have reserved a small number of mechanical corps as a backup."

"But the hiring fee is too high."

Long Le and others said in difficulty.

"There is nothing we can do about it. The maintenance fees and production costs of the Mechanical Corps are extremely high. But don't worry, once there is income from employment, I will invest the money into the production of the Mechanical Corps. When the quantity increases, the employment price will It will continue to decline, and eventually there will be no money left.”

Shen Qiu began to draw cakes for Long Le and others.

"All right."

When Long Le and others heard this, they said nothing more, and the remaining people began to disperse.

Seeing that everyone had left, Shen Qiu followed Yun Kong and others back to the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, Yun Kong's expression softened a lot, and he could finally see why Shen Qiu did this.

"Master Yunkong, I'm really sorry for making you wait outside for so long today."

Shen Qiu apologized to Yun Kong.

"That's okay, but it's too dangerous for you to do this. You're playing with fire. What if the virus really spreads and the situation gets out of control?"

Yun Kong said to Shen Qiu in a deep voice.

"You don't have to worry about this. Those refugees are 100% not infected."

Shen Qiu smiled and replied.

When Yun Kong heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, opened his eyes very wide, looked at Shen Qiu in disbelief, and finally said with a wry smile.

"It seems that I am really old, and I am no longer as brave as you young people."

"Master Yunkong, don't say that, I still need your help."

"Tell me what you want me to do."

"Help me purchase enough supplies and transport them to the border..."

Shen Qiu smiled and said to Yunkong.

"No problem, this is what I should do."

Yun Kong replied solemnly.

Blue League·The Free City of St. Peter.

Qi Kun walked on the busy streets, watching the bustling scene of people coming and going. From time to time, he stopped at some buildings full of history and admired the mottled marks on them.

Then he went to the Freedom Tower, the tallest tourist building in Liberty City, and bought a ticket to go up.

He came to the top of the Freedom Tower, overlooking the entire city and admiring the sunset.

"Hey, brother, look at the scenery."

At this time, a blond boy wearing fashionable shorts greeted Qi Kun enthusiastically.

If you look carefully, you can see the Aegis logo on this young man's chest.

"Hello!"

Qi Kun asked politely.

"My name is Rice, a native of the Free City of St. Peter."

"Qi Kun."

"You are from the Red Alliance, right?"

"Yes, but don't worry. I just came back from another world not long ago. Didn't something happen to the City of Stars and the Red Alliance? I happened to have some property here, so I came directly. When I entered the city, there was something wrong. Check the track, so I'm very healthy."

"I see, brother, you made a very wise decision. There is probably no safer place in the entire Blue Star than here."

"Yeah?"

"Of course, the defensive facilities and military strength of our Free City of Saint Peter are extremely strong, second only to the City of Stars, and not even comparable to the Red Alliance's City of Sinking Stars."

"Oh, really? But I didn't see any particularly strong defensive weapons."

Qi Kun asked with great interest.

"How can the weapons show up? They are all hidden underground and will be deployed when needed!"

"Good design, who designed this?"

Qi Kun and Rice got along very well and chatted for more than an hour. Finally, Rice said goodbye to Qi Kun.

"Brother, I have to go on patrol and I'll treat you to a drink another day."

"good!"

Qi Kun said goodbye with a smile.

After Rice left, Qi Kun also turned around and left.

He returned to the hotel room where he lived, opened a laptop, and browsed the Internet for information about the Blue League, the City of Agalad, the City of Offakan, and the Gray League.

Qi Kun already has a lot of memories about the Red Alliance and the City of Stars in his head. But there was a bit less information about the Blue Alliance and the Gray Alliance. In order not to miss any point, he came over in person.

In the office of the Administrative Council Building in the City of Sinking Stars.

Chairman Long Yan was sitting on the chair with a serious expression, and Vice Chairman Wang Heng was reporting on his work.

"The situation is very pessimistic now. Although the growth rate of the number of infections has slowed down, there are still a large number of new infections every day. If this continues, we will collapse."

"Are there no new breakthroughs at the institute?"

"Not yet, all the research doctors are working hard on research. In fact, this virus is not completely untreatable. The research institute has developed several effective drugs, but the cost is too high and there is no way to mass-produce it! We must know that the number of infected people has reached tens of millions now, and we don’t know how many people are in the incubation period.”

Wang Heng said to Long Yan with a headache.

Just when Wang Heng and Long Yan were discussing things, the closed door was suddenly opened, directly interrupting their conversation.

Wang Heng turned his head and scolded in anger.

"Who is it? Didn't I tell you that I'm discussing things with the Speaker of the Assembly and no one is allowed in?"

Wang Heng was stunned when he was mid-sentence. The person who walked in was none other than Long Qing.

Long Qing looked at Wang Heng indifferently, and Wang Heng immediately stood up and said to Long Yan.

"Master of Parliament, you can talk first, I'll take my leave first."

"Go ahead."

Council Chairman Long Yan nodded slightly and responded.

After Vice Chairman Wang Heng left, Long Qing closed the door and pressed a soundproof button on the wall.

She walked straight to Chairman Long Yan and asked with extreme indifference.

"Why did you hand over the City of Stars to Shen Qiu?"

"When I do this, I naturally have my own considerations."

Long Yan knew that Long Qing was here to investigate.

"Long Yan and we are husband and wife, there is no need to go through many twists and turns. Don't think that you can hide it from me because you have done it perfectly. Take a look at this!"

Long Qing directly threw a DNA test report on the table.

Long Yan picked up the test report and took a look at it. This test report tested the DNA matching of Long Xiu and Shen Qiu. It showed that the two were half-brothers, and their DNA was very similar.

Long Qing saw that Long Yan was silent, so he spoke.

"I felt that something was wrong with Shen Qiu from the beginning. Even though you encrypted his information and arrested all the people who were investigating his background, it didn't bother me. Although I can't get your DNA information, but you I'm afraid I forgot, but it was so easy for me to obtain the DNA information of Long Xiu and Shen Qiu. Is there anything else you want to explain now?"

"Shen Qiu is indeed my son."

Long Yan said calmly.

"Just admit it, let's have a good talk now. Even if Shen Qiu is your child, and Long Xiu is also your child, you can't be so unfair to one, right? You actually gave the City of Stars to Shen Qiu, you Have you ever considered Long Xiu? Don’t say you plan to hand over the Red Alliance to Long Xiu. You don’t know what the Red Alliance has become now, right? It’s a complete mess.”

Long Qing directly blocked everything Long Yan might say. In her eyes, only the City of Stars was valuable, because it was the last refuge and all hope.

"Are you done? Now it's my turn."

Long Yan replied in a deep voice.

"You tell me."

"Even if Shen Qiu is my child, I don't favor one over the other. The reason why I handed over the city lord of the City of Stars to Shen Qiu is not because I favor him, but because I asked him to help deal with the mess in the City of Stars. Do you think that the City of Stars is a mess? Is the current situation good? Let me tell you the truth, the situation in the City of Stars is also in a mess now. I need a strong person to take over and turn the whole situation around! And Shen Qiu is the most suitable person!"

"Long Xiu can do the same."

"He can't, and there's nothing to argue with. Facts have proven that my choice was correct. Shen Qiu has done a good job in the position of city lord."

Chairman Long Yan said in a deep voice.

"Do you think I will believe it?"

"Facts speak louder than words, you can watch quietly."

"Huh, since it doesn't make sense, let's wait and see. You won't get what you want in this matter."

After Long Qing finished speaking, he turned around and left directly.

Long Yan looked at Long Qing's back with an increasingly tired expression, as it must come.

In the City of Stars City Lord's Mansion office.

Shen Qiu felt very happy as he watched the funds raised. This time, the revenue effect exceeded expectations.

What Bai Mucheng said was indeed true. People in the City of Stars were not ordinary rich, but they could make so much money just by squeezing it a little. It was completely different from the last donation.

Yun Xiaoxi and Qi Dong looked at the money and felt in a daze, and they haven't recovered yet.

Tang Kexin also said in amazement.

“I didn’t expect that we would raise so much money.”

"I didn't expect being a city lord to be so profitable. I just moved my fingers and the money kept coming."

Shen Qiu nodded. If he had to earn this money by himself, he might not be able to earn it even if he spent half his life. Being a city lord is really more profitable than opening any company.

"Senior, what are you going to do next?"

"I will first allocate 200 billion blue alliance coins to Wang Jing, and the remaining money can be kept for disposal. And this is just the beginning. Since the position of city lord is so profitable, we cannot waste this resource."

Shen Qiu replied in a very good mood.

"Boss, what are you going to do?"

Qi Dong asked curiously.

Shen Qiu's expression changed for a while, and then he made a decision.

"I decided to collect materials, start a resonator production line, and sell the resonators! Now that the resonators are so valuable, I can definitely make a lot of money!"

"Senior, are you sure this is okay? If you directly produce the resonator, Zhou Sheng will definitely notice it? Or are you planning to get rid of him?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Tang Kexin's eyes, and she asked with great interest.

Yun Xiaoxi and Qi Dong also looked at Shen Qiu with great confusion.

Shen Qiu touched his chin and thought for a while before speaking rationally.

"Don't move on Zhou Sheng for now. Chairman Long Yan once said that that guy is not that restless, and now he focuses on maintaining stability. As for our production of resonators, it doesn't matter if he finds out! I am now from the City of Stars. City Lord, there is no need to be afraid of him, he is the one who should really be afraid. He had better not make any mistakes, because once I catch the pigtail, he will be dead."

"It makes sense. Now that the senior's identity is different from what it used to be, he should be the one who is really afraid."

Tang Kexin replied with a smile.

Shen Qiu no longer hesitated at this time, he turned to Qi Dong and said.

"Qi Dong, go find Zhang Can and go with him to collect the raw materials for the resonator!"

"good!"

"Be careful when collecting, and put your own safety first. If you encounter any trouble, tell me as soon as possible."

"no problem."

Qi Dong immediately turned around and left.

After Shen Qiu finished making arrangements, she tapped her fingers on the table and said seriously.

"If things go well with the resonator production, we can have very high net income, which should be able to make up for the declining income of Stars, and maybe we can restore the balance of payments."

"That wouldn't be great."

"Yes, but we can't be too happy yet. The source of the problem has not been solved. No matter what we do, it will only delay the crisis. No matter how much money we make, sooner or later we will still have to pay it all."

"The Pure Light Virus and the Word of Death? Weren't they handed over to the research institute for research?"

Tang Kexin asked curiously.

"Yes, the problem is that the institute has not made any constructive breakthroughs so far."

Shen Qiu nodded slightly and replied.

"What should we do?"

Yun Xiaoxi asked worriedly.

Shen Qiu thought for a while and said.

"Let me ask Anji about the Jingguang virus first. After all, this virus came out of Anji's world. They must have done research at the beginning. Even if there is no solution, at least there should be a direction."

"Senior is right!"

Tang Kexin replied with a smile.

Shen Qiu immediately dialed the communication line of the floating fortress.

Soon Anji's projection appeared, and she breathed and asked.

"what?"

"Of course I have something to do with you. I would like to ask if the Jingguang virus is really unsolvable. Didn't you study how to deal with it at the beginning?"

"Of course there has been research, and the Pure Light Virus is not unsolvable."

Angie replied cheerfully.

"any solution?"

Shen Qiu asked happily.

"The virus actually weakens with the number of people infected and the passage of time. This is why when you dug up the tomb of the city lord and the virus leaked, there was no large-scale infection out of control! So everyone only needs to freeze dozens of It will be resolved in a year.”

Angie said simply.

"What a scam! What a bad idea you have, you won't be able to do it for decades."

Shen Qiu replied angrily.

"Then I can't help it. Who told you to mess around? I won't tell you anymore. I'm repairing and cracking things here."

Anji shrugged helplessly, looking helpless, and then hung up the communication.

"Hey, it seems that the Jingguang virus will be out of control in a short time. As for the Word of Death virus on the refugees, let me think about it."

Shen Qiu said with a sigh.

Yun Xiaoxi and Tang Kexin watched Shen Qiu thinking quietly.

At this moment, Qi Lin's appearance suddenly flashed in Shen Qiu's mind, and he suddenly reacted.

"Qi Lin! Damn it, I forgot about him."

"Qilin?"

Yun Xiaoxi and the other two were also stunned for a moment.

"Isn't this virus an upgraded version of the virus that was popular in District 8? Qi Lin was the one who solved the virus in District 8 back then. He should have a solution."

Shen Qiu said decisively.

Qi Lin himself is a research expert in this field. This death language was artificially synthesized by the Church of the Defeated Army. In theory, there should be a way to solve it.

"I see,"

Tang Kexin replied with a smile.

"Let's go to the Floating Fortress to find Qi Lin."

Shen Qiu then stood up and said.

"Wait a minute, senior."

Tang Kexin suddenly called out to Shen Qiu.

"What's wrong?"

Shen Qiu looked at Tang Kexin doubtfully.

"Senior, you still have a bunch of documents that have not been approved. If you run out now, you will not be able to finish your work today."

Tang Kexin reminded with a smile.

Shen Qiu's expression suddenly became very exciting, but he immediately thought of a compromise, so he said to Tang Kexin.

"Bring the papers."

"good!"

Tang Kexin responded with a smile.

A few hours later, the long steel corridor of the floating fortress appeared.

Shen Qiu walked in the front, and Tang Kexin, who was following on the right, kept reading while holding the document.

"The Materials Procurement Department is applying to purchase a batch of air purification systems to transform the facilities used to isolate awakened people to prevent further cross-infection. The budget is 500 million blue alliance coins."

"approve!"

"Building the Third Department, apply for a fund to repair some of the damaged roads and public facilities in the City of Stars, with an amount of 1 billion Blue Alliance coins."

"No, there is no money now! Money must be spent wisely."

Tang Kexin followed Shen Qiu while constantly giving instructions on the documents for him.

Yun Xiaoxi looked a little envious of Tang Kexin's capable appearance.

Not long after, Shen Qiu and the others came to the door of the laboratory, and saw Mu Chen standing at the door to take a breath, looking like he had a headache.

"Mu Chen!"

Shen Qiu shouted very happily.

When Mu Chen saw Shen Qiu and the others coming, he greeted them with a gentle smile.

"Chen Qiu, why are you here?"

"I'm looking for Qi Lin."

"Looking for Qi Lin?"

Mu Chen's expression froze slightly.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Shen Qiu asked curiously.

"I advise you not to go in to look for him at this time. He is furious because the development of SS-level genetic medicine is blocked and is smashing things crazily. If you go in at this time, aren't you going to get into trouble?"

Mu Chen said to Shen Qiu with a bitter smile.

"Ah, isn't it? Are you so unlucky?"

When Shen Qiu heard what Mu Chen said, she also had a look of helplessness on her face.

"So don't go in."

Mu Chen replied with a deep headache.

"That won't work. I really went in to find him. There is something important."

"whats the matter?"

"This is not because the virus is spreading in the Red League. I just wanted to ask Qi Lin if he could find a way to solve it. You also know that Qi Lin is an expert in this field. He was the one who solved the problem in the eighth district."

"I see, that is indeed very important, but can you convince him?"

Mu Chen asked very worriedly.

"No, you have to!"

Shen Qiu took a deep breath, adjusted herself and walked in.

When they entered the laboratory, the floor was covered with broken glass. From a distance, they saw Qi Lin standing in front of the operating table like a mad and furious lion.

"Qilin?"

Shen Qiu shouted cautiously.

Qilin's forehead veins bulged at first, but he quickly realized that it was Shen Qiu who called him, so he turned to look at Shen Qiu and asked irritably.

"What are you here for?"

Shen Qiu said with a smile.

"I have something to do with you. Let's sit and chat slowly."

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me what you have to say directly. Don't waste my time."

Qi Lin's expression softened a lot and he replied coldly.

Shen Qiu knew Qi Lin's temper very well, so he didn't go around in circles and said it simply.

"I would like to ask you to help me research the zombie virus and the Word of Death that has spread within the territory of the Red Alliance."

When Qi Lin heard Shen Qiu's words, he refused irritably without even a second's hesitation.

"I don't have time, so don't bother me. I'm researching SS-level genetic potions!" (End of Chapter)
