Chapter 1508 The Game Arena 58
Fourthly, someone suggested that we retrieve the spaceships that were previously hidden underground, and that everyone could use them to leave this planet and go to the nearest satellite to see if we could escape the game.

If we can escape, we can just use spaceships to pick up the people from this planet one trip at a time.

Although the technology in this world is not very advanced, the major powers still have their own spaceships that can fly to nearby satellites.

The most powerful nations have already built bases on satellites.

Therefore, living on a satellite is not out of the question.

Although there are fewer spaceships and the transport might be slower, if the territory of this planet can't be raised and humanity can no longer deal with the monsters and is destined to perish, then going to live on a satellite would be a good thing.

Although many buildings have been leveled in territories around the world, most of those spaceships are underground and should not have been leveled, so they can still be pulled out and used.

This method is not something that Linlang can use; only high-level officials in various countries can come up with it.

However, this method has limited effectiveness and is probably only useful for high-ranking officials in various countries. Ordinary people who want to immigrate to other planets can only dream of it, since the number of spaceships in each country is too small and the world's population is too large, making it impossible to get a ticket.

Guangnao Intelligence also recommended other methods, but there is no perfect method; each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

It has to be said that there is strength in numbers. Many people came up with a lot of good ideas. Regardless of whether they were useful or not, given that the technology in this world could not break through the blockade imposed by the people behind the game, they could only try their best under these limited conditions.

Of course, it also depends on whether the person behind the scenes really wants to wipe out the world. Otherwise, if they want to wipe out the world, they have plenty of ways to do so, and no method will work.

So the most crucial thing is to find the person behind this and shut down the game. Otherwise, everyone's territory will stop growing. Once the territory is destroyed, everything the territory can provide will be gone. Everyone will have to rely on monster drops for supplies, and then there will be no safe living environment every day. Slowly, humanity will die day by day and eventually perish.

You see, now that there are territories, people who aren't good at fighting monsters can hide in their territories and survive by taking on territorial quests. People who are good at fighting monsters can go out and fight monsters, and the death rate isn't too high. So, although some people have died from fighting monsters over the years, the number of deaths hasn't been high. In addition, people marry and have children in their territories, which replenishes the population every year. So, although the human population is decreasing, it's mainly because the number of deaths from natural causes exceeds the number of births, which leads to the decline in the human population. In this way, even if they were to become extinct, it would take some time.

But once humans lose the protection of their territory, not to mention that they will have to rely on fighting monsters to obtain all kinds of resources, just the fact that humans will lose their safe homes will cause those who do not know how to fight monsters to die in large numbers. Humans will die in large numbers in a very short time, and in such a precarious life, humans will certainly not dare to have children.

Therefore, the human population will only continue to decrease significantly, and will not increase. Human extinction is only a matter of time.

Because people have thought of this, many have lost the will to live and just want to live one day at a time.

Linlang naturally didn't want to admit defeat, so she tried her best to send out notices to everyone in the territory to comfort them, so as not to make them lose their will to survive. She said that for her, upgrading from level eight to level nine was not difficult and she would succeed. According to the previous pattern, a level eight territory could last at least a thousand days, a level nine territory could last two thousand days, and a level ten territory, although it would require a lot of formal residents, was not impossible to fight for. If she succeeded, the number of days she could survive would be even greater, so everyone didn't need to worry for the time being, because many years later, they might be able to find a way out.

Since there's no need to worry about survival for at least ten years, let everyone focus on living well for now, and we'll deal with the future later. Linlang's words made sense, so the people in Linlang's territory were in a better mood. After all, if they really didn't have to worry about survival for at least ten years, then they could naturally live well for the time being.

Seeing that the emotions of everyone in the territory had been calmed down a bit, Linlang finally felt relieved. She didn't want the territory to fall into chaos before she even came up with a solution.

However, Linlang has already started building an underground city.

One suggestion earlier was correct: if the land territory really can't be upgraded and is eventually breached, how will many people who are afraid to fight monsters survive? They definitely need to find a safe place, so Linlang began to build an underground city.

Regardless of whether she sends out new monsters that can dig tunnels to attack people in the dungeon later, we should at least make this preparation in case it comes in handy.

When there are no more territories to provide supplies, people will have to rely entirely on monster drops, and their quality of life will be much worse. But having a safe place to live will be good enough.

Even if the territory is destroyed and I am no longer the lord, and even if these underground cities are built and I let people live in them, those people may not necessarily listen to me and recognize me as the city lord. There will definitely be ambitious people who want to compete for the city lord position.

However, she only wanted to protect ordinary people as much as possible. Whether she could become the city lord or not didn't matter. She would deal with it when the time came.

Actually, building an underground city isn't that difficult, at least not in this country, because previous cities all had civil defense facilities, and she just needed to modify those facilities.

Although the system's territory expansion will flatten all surface buildings, making it impossible to see the pre-apocalyptic structures within the territory, it does not flatten the underground areas. In many places within the territory, one can still see the entrances to former civil defense projects, which she can use after a little tidying up.

If some countries don't have these things and have to dig them themselves, the workload will be huge. After all, after the apocalypse, excavators were all destroyed during territory expansion. Even if someone, like me, would collect some useful things into their territory before upgrading it to prevent it from being bulldozed, gasoline is currently unavailable in the world, so excavators can't be used. Therefore, if we can't use excavators to dig underground cities and have to rely on manual labor, it will be a huge undertaking.

Linlang hired NPCs provided by the system to do the dungeon work, since it was important to keep this kind of thing secret from ordinary people, and it wouldn't be convenient to ask ordinary people to do it.

Although it was done by NPCs, people could still guess what the territory authorities were up to, given the numerous people coming and going at the entrances to the former civil defense projects.

Seeing that the territory authorities were planning to build an underground city, everyone felt a little more at ease, thinking that if the territory on the surface really disappeared in the future, they could simply live in the underground city.

Therefore, the people of Linlang Territory, seeing that there was still such a hope for the future, became more emotionally stable.

However, not all lords are willing to build underground cities. After all, once their territory is destroyed and they are no longer the lords, it's no wonder that these people will listen to them and regard them as city lords. Since they may not be able to become city lords, what motivation do those lords have to build underground cities? It would be ridiculous to end up doing all the work for others.
