Xingyuan County.

Chu Zixuan was casually sitting in the car, throwing crystals into his mouth from time to time, looking very contented.

“Screech!”

Suddenly, a cry of an eagle from the sky caught his attention.

“An eagle?”

Through the windshield, he could clearly see, not far in the sky, an eagle was circling back and forth.

Subconsciously, he extended his Mental Power, covering the eagle with it.

But the next moment, he paused, because on the back of that eagle, there was a bunch of electronic equipment, including a camera-like object, which was shooting in their car’s direction.

“Someone is watching us!”

Chu Zixuan frowned and looked back at the car capsule, Du Gang was still in a

deep sleep, unaware of when he would wake up.

Just wait and see?

Not possible. Better to leave first. Regardless if it’s the military or another force, negotiation can wait until Du Gang wakes up!Next, with a step on the gas, the car roared into motion, racing towards the preplanned route.

About ten kilometers away, a small squad of soldiers was watching the remote monitoring feed on an electronic device at that moment.

“This car is on the move. What now?”

A man who appeared to be the leader pondered, then quickly instructed: “Following the eagle’s signal, I’ll go with Tracker to keep an eye on them from distance. You all go investigate the situation in Xingyuan County!”

Having said that, he and another strong man picked up an unconscious man with rolling white eyes and climbed into a vehicle, chasing in the direction from which Chu Zixuan had fled.

The others packed up their gear and headed toward Xingyuan City.

Nanyuan City, Several hours after the briefing, the mass evacuation finally got underway. They did not choose the low-speed path but opted for the high-speed route as taking the slower one would have required too much detouring which they didn’t have the time for.

They had sent a path-clearing team three hours ahead to make way on the highway.

The gathered surviving civilians were fewer than expected—around two hundred thousand. Along with over thirty thousand veterans and hastily mobilized new recruits, a total of two hundred and fifty thousand people boarded the vehicles heading north.

Luckily, Nanyuan City was big, and there were sufficient vehicles, including many military trucks provided by the military. One vehicle after another, the whole convoy stretched for more than ten kilometers!

At the forefront of the convoy, several vehicles full of Superpowered individuals led the way.

Such arrangements were made in case they encountered any obstacles that the bulldozers couldn’t handle or any overlooked obstructions. These strong individuals could manually clear the path, ensuring the convoy’s smooth progress.

“Today’s destination is Luo An City. We must arrive before darkness falls.

Everyone, keep up! If anyone falls behind, no one will wait for you!”

To manage the entire convoy, Wang Dezhen placed a military vehicle in the middle of every ten civilian vehicles to relay messages.

If any vehicle stopped or broke down, obstructing the way, there would be soldiers to direct people to push the vehicle aside and ensure the main force could continue moving forward!

However, to avoid chaos caused by those with broken down vehicles, about a hundred empty trucks were placed at the rear of the convoy. They served not only to collect resources but also to accommodate those whose vehicles had broken down or new survivors!

“What’s the situation at Luo An City?”

“We’ve already sent planes to get in touch. The Militia Training Base is intact.

About a hundred soldiers are held up there. But as for the city…”

“What about the city?”

“Luo An City sits at the foot of a mountain, where the largest zoo of Nanyuan Province lies. Now, the animals have all…

Wang Dezhen frowned and scolded, “Just spit it out already! Enough with the suspense!”

The subordinate trembled in fear and quickly reported, “The animals are evolving rapidly. Far from being dangerous, the bugs were so numerous that they provided plenty of food for these animals… Now, the largest tiger is over thirty meters tall and eighty meters long, even golden beetles have become its prey!”

“Although, they’ve now all retreated into the mountains, and there aren’t many animals left in the city…”

“The good news is, when we get to Luo An City, we don’t have to face the giant tiger directly. The bad news is that the forests lie to the north of Luo An City. The original mountain roads have nearly disappeared, covered by wildly growing plants. To continue heading north, we’ll need to traverse through those towering, dense forests!”

Wang Dezhen nodded and replied, “Understood. Send planes to inform the militiamen. Have them organize civilians to gather resources, and select a building-rich area in the city to set up our base for tonight!”

The Dawn Stone they carried was limited in mass and could only guard a limited area. To maximally utilize the stone’s protective capacity, its scope in all dimensions must be used.

Three hours later, when Chu Zixuan drove through a small town, Du Gang finally came to.

“Where are we?”

Du Gang rubbed his eyes and sat up in a daze.

“Kaiyuan County. About a hundred kilometers or so from Luo An City,” Chu Zixuan without looking back, continued driving the vehicle.

“Wait, we didn’t fetch those orange crystals from Xingyuan County!!” Recalling his original objective of leveling up—to extract crystals from the golden beetles, Du Gang wondered why they’d left.

“Do you see that eagle above us? It’s been watching us for three hours. About ten kilometers away behind us, there’s a military vehicle with three men in it. One of them looks unusual with his eyes rolled white but still has a strong life force. I suspect he’s controlling that eagle…”

“A military vehicle?”

Du Gang was stunned, “Since we’re being followed by the military, why are we running?

“We don’t know yet the military’s stance towards Superpowered individuals,”

Du Gang was speechless, refuting, “Brother, didn’t you say that one of the three soldiers behind us is controlling the eagle? Isn’t he a Superpowered individual then? .

“It’s not the same!”

Chu Zixuan shook his head, “We are civilians; they are soldiers. In the face of an apocalypse, maintaining one’s hold on power becomes the top priority for those in authority. Other than bugs, we Superpowered civilians pose the biggest threat to them!”

“That can’t be possible! The alien bugs are enemies to all mankind. How can they…”

“Nothing is impossible. Especially during times like these, we must be even more cautious. One wrong step could lead to a disastrous outcome!”

Chu Zixuan spoke with conviction, “You should know that the phones have no signal..
