After a while,

In Lin Xuankong's office,

You Rui gave Lin Xuankong a military salute. "Director Lin, Han Liu and I, as you instructed, refused Lei Che and the two captains' invitation to go to Shelter No. 1! Just as you guessed, Director Lin, they abandoned all the nearly 120,000 refugees in the three shelters!"

Lin Xuankong stood in front of the glass window, nodded to You Rui, and frowned, saying, "Han Bao and I have been observing here for a long time. There are quite a few groups of source beasts moving quietly around the location of those three shelters. Some of these groups seem to have caught up with their armored convoy, while others are already approaching the three shelters!"

When Han Liu heard Lin Xuankong say this, his eyes widened in surprise.
"Without the deterrent effect of gene warriors like Reicher, the automated weapons in those three shelters alone probably won't last more than a few rounds of attacks. They'll be overrun by the source beast horde sooner or later!"

Han Bao shook his head.

"Master Lin just carefully observed the situation of Lei Che's armored vehicles and armored buses."

Judging from the cargo loaded on those armored vehicles and armored buses, the situation should be even more dire!

The automatic weapons in Vault 35, Vault 34, and Vault 33 probably don't have many alloy bullets left.

Most of the alloy bullets were transported away by the armored convoy led by Reicher and his team, presumably because they were worried about being ambushed by a powerful horde of source beasts during the transfer!

"No wonder those armored vehicles and buses seemed to struggle more than our armored vehicles and buses in Shelter 36. The roar of their engines sounded like they were about to explode! Damn it, if Reichel and the others do this, won't the remaining refugees in Shelter 35, Shelter 34, and Shelter 33 have no chance of survival?"

Han Liu's eyes widened even more, and he couldn't help but clench his fists, clearly unable to tolerate Lei Che and the others' behavior.

Yu Rui sighed and frowned, saying, "I noticed that too. Lei Che's armored convoy is indeed carrying a large number of alloy bullets!"

Yu Rui possesses the special genetic ability of the Eye of Truth, allowing her to see through the thick alloy plates of armored vehicles and buses to clearly see what is loaded inside! Lin Xuankong, due to the innate talent within his "Old but Still Vigorous" destiny, also gained the special genetic ability of the Eye of Truth, and saw through this!
"If I had known it would turn out like this, I should have just taken action and killed Lei Che and his bunch of inhuman bastards! Damn it, you ran away, you didn't take those disaster victims with you, but you even completely stripped those disaster victims of their last bit of ability to resist the source beasts. You really left those disaster victims with no way to survive!"

Han Liu paced back and forth in front of the French windows, his fists clenched, his eyes constantly darting in the direction where Lei Che and his convoy had left. He was clearly itching to catch up and beat up Lei Che and his gang.

Lin Xuankong shook his head. "At times like this, everyone is just trying to survive. It's to be expected that they'll do this! Han Liu, don't even think about chasing after Lei Che and his gang. If you really want to help those abandoned disaster victims, then take fifty auxiliary security team members and drive our shelter's thirty-odd armored vehicles and armored buses to shelter number thirty-three for rescue!"
The most dangerous place right now is Shelter 33. I can see that three packs of canine beasts are heading towards Shelter 33!

Also, after you go to the rescue and eliminate those three medium-sized canine beast packs, ask the refugees at the shelter over there if any are willing to come to Shelter No. 36, and bring them over!

For Lin Xuankong, these disaster victims who were 'dead ends' but were rescued by his students could all become part of the power he would build in the future.
As Mr. Li Pingfei's YZMM gene drug in Laboratory No. 2 continues to advance, the chance of awakening the gene drug is estimated to soon reach more than 10%!
Based on this calculation, the 30,000 to 40,000 people in Shelter 33 could potentially produce 3,000 to 4,000 gene warriors just from one injection of the improved YZMM gene serum. If we include the tens of thousands of people in his own shelter and the 80,000 people in the other two shelters, the total would be approximately 12,000 gene warriors!

Twelve thousand gene warriors, such a huge number
If everything goes smoothly as Lin Xuankong thinks, then the number of gene warriors in Shelter No. 36 will directly exceed the total number of gene warriors in all other shelters in the entire Stone City Ruins!
Of course, this is something for the future, and the timing is uncertain. After all, we still have to wait for Mr. Li Pingfei's YZMM gene agent in Laboratory No. 2 to truly reach 10%!

"Teacher Lin, that's exactly what I've been waiting to hear!"
I immediately gathered the men and drivers and headed to Shelter 33. Haha, three medium-sized packs of canine-type source beasts! Not bad, not bad, another large amount of source beast flesh and blood and source stone crystals!

Upon hearing Lin Xuankong's words, Han Liu immediately perked up, gave Lin Xuankong a military salute, and turned to quickly walk outside.

Lin Xuankong then looked at Han Bao and said, "Han Bao, you must immediately gather the refugees in our shelter and select the three thousand strongest men to prepare to build a thick wall that will enclose all the residential areas across the street. At the same time, remember to be ready to repel any source beasts that may attack the construction team!"
As for cleaning up the residential buildings in the enclosed areas, that will have to wait until the refugees from Shelter No. 33 arrive!
Our Shelter No. 36 can't accommodate too many idle people. Everyone who wants to collect food and other supplies must get moving!

Han Bao nodded in agreement, then smiled and said, "Recently, the source beast groups within a two- or three-kilometer radius of our shelter have all been cleared out. It is estimated that apart from some eighth-tier source beast groups and the possible appearance of seventh-tier tyrannical source beasts, the other ninth-tier source beast groups and small eighth-tier predator source beast groups have no interest in approaching our shelter at all!"
"Also, Lin, don't worry. Captain Hu, the auxiliary police chief, has done a very good job of motivating the disaster victims. He and I will arrange the work for the victims in the shelters and strive to get every single one involved!"

After Han Bao left the office to find Lao Hu, the auxiliary security captain, You Rui glanced at Lin Xuankong and smiled, "Director Lin, Han Bao has something to do, and that impetuous guy Han Liu also has something to do. I can't just sit here doing nothing!"

Lin Xuankong shook his head slightly, "Captain You, as the new captain of the shelter, has such excellent eyesight, you must continue the reconnaissance work! Especially now."

He turned to look in the direction where the armored convoy of Reicher and the others had left. "I have a feeling that it will be difficult for this convoy to reach Shelter No. 1 so smoothly! Because the route they are taking seems to be too quiet. Nearly an hour has passed, and they have traveled a full ten kilometers in circles, but the source beasts along the way have all taken the initiative to avoid them!"
This situation is very strange. It's as if this armored convoy has been targeted by something, or 'preordained' by something. So, whether it's a large ninth-tier source beast group or a powerful medium-sized predator source beast group, they have all stopped approaching them and given up on blocking the convoy in advance! "Oh?" Upon hearing this, You Rui's pretty face changed slightly. She immediately activated her special gene ability and carefully looked in the direction of the armored convoy, which was more than ten kilometers away.

After a while,

Yu Rui spoke with a solemn expression:

"Director Lin, you were right after all. Lei Che and his armored vehicle convoy are probably really being watched!"
I just saw their armored convoy pass by a nest with seven predator source beasts. The nest was less than three kilometers away from their armored convoy, and the seven predator source beasts had already spotted the armored convoy, but they did not show any intention of attacking it. Instead, they all retreated to their own nest!
Seven predator source beasts are more than enough to break through the entire armored vehicle convoy's defenses and easily devour the genetic warriors of the armored vehicle convoy. Once the attack is launched, at most only a small fraction of them will be able to escape!
Those seven predator-level source beasts were so wary. The only source beast that could make seven predator-level source beasts wary was probably a tyrant-level source beast!
However, after observing for a while, I did not find any powerful creature that might be a Tyrant Source Beast within a four or five-kilometer radius of that armored convoy!

That's really too strange!

After speaking, You Ruiqiao looked at Lin Xuankong with a puzzled expression on her face.

At this moment, Lin Xuankong's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "The armored convoy is about to be attacked!"

Upon hearing Lin Xuankong's words, You Rui immediately turned her head and carefully looked around the armored convoy in the far distance, but found nothing unusual. The look of doubt on her face became even more obvious.

Lin Xuankong continued, "Those two tyrannical-level source beasts are about a thousand meters ahead of the armored convoy, and they should be lurking about seven or eight meters underground!"

Yu Rui turned her head to look carefully, and at the same time activated her special gene ability of the Eye of Truth. Then her pretty face changed. "Sure enough, there are source beasts lurking underground. No wonder I looked all around the armored vehicle convoy just now and didn't find them! Moreover, these seem to be two tyrant-level source beasts of the insect race. Their original species should be cicada-like life forms!"
"This is going to be a disaster for the armored convoy. If two Zerg Tyrants attack simultaneously, even top-tier eighth-order lifeforms like Reicher and his group will have very little chance of escaping!"

At this point, You Rui seemed to have thought of something. Her beautiful eyes flickered, and she looked at Lin Xuankong with some doubt. "Something's not right. Those two insectoid tyrants were clearly lurking underground. Without special genetic abilities, they would be impossible to observe. Even with my special genetic ability of vision, I didn't observe them from the beginning. Director Lin, how did you find them? You are clearly an elemental genetic warrior. You shouldn't have a special genetic ability of vision!"

Lin Xuankong said, "Captain You, I naturally have a way of finding them. Right now, let's not dwell on how I found them. Let's observe this battle carefully and see what kind of attack methods and special genetic abilities the seventh-tier Zerg tyrants have! Maybe the disasters that happened in nearby Vault 37 and other vaults were caused by these two Zerg tyrants! Observing the abilities and attack patterns of these Zerg tyrants is extremely important for our next response!"

You Rui felt somewhat helpless when she saw Lin Xuankong keeping her in suspense.

"Fine, don't tell me then, I'm not interested anyway!"

After giving Lin Xuankong a sharp glare, You Rui turned her head back to look at the armored convoy. As the convoy rapidly approached the location where the Zerg tyrants were lurking, her delicate brows gradually furrowed.

Although she disdained associating with the gene warriors like Reicher and was extremely disgusted by their actions of abandoning a large number of disaster victims, in Yu Rui's view, no matter what, the gene warriors like Reicher were still human beings, her fellow human beings. Watching so many of her fellow human beings being attacked by the lurking Zerg tyrants, she naturally wouldn't be in a good mood!

now,

Located more than ten kilometers from Vault 36
The reconnaissance armored vehicle at the head of the convoy suddenly emitted a blinding red light from its life detector. The light was bright, glaring, and flashed incessantly. Simultaneously, the reconnaissance vehicle braked abruptly and came to a stop. A series of piercing alarms emanated from its location and quickly spread throughout the entire convoy. Soon, all the vehicles in the long convoy came to a halt. Drivers and crew members in some of the armored vehicles opened their hoods and peered out, looking towards the location of the reconnaissance vehicle.

About fifty meters behind the armored reconnaissance vehicle, atop an armored command vehicle, several shelter commanders, including Reicher, quickly jumped out after equipping themselves with armor and weapons. Reicher shouted, "What's going on? Report immediately!"

The door of the armored reconnaissance vehicle opened, and a deputy captain at the early stage of the eighth rank quickly jumped out and rushed towards the location of Lei Che's armored command vehicle.

His face was tense, and he shouted urgently, "Captain Lei, something's wrong! The life detector seems to have detected a powerful life form 300 meters ahead. According to the life detector, this powerful life form is even stronger than an eighth-tier predator-level source beast, but... but..."

Upon hearing this, Lei Che and the other captains' expressions changed. Lei Che even waved his hand to the rear, and instantly, the automatic cannons mounted on each armored vehicle and armored bus turned their muzzles and aimed forward.

"But what?" Lei Che narrowed his eyes, his right hand already drawing out an eighth-tier SW alloy longsword. (End of Chapter)
