Wasteland Border Inspector - Chapter 942

Chapter 942: Chapter 301: Life Evolution, Power Soars

Yu Yong’s words uncovered a cruel and undeniable reality.

As Flower Province inevitably steps into the Eternal Night, the remaining humans on this land are destined to initiate a large-scale migration.

Fortunately, over the years, due to its proximity to the Black Zone, Flower Province has been sparsely populated, with only a couple dozen large Shelter Cities barely holding on, while the smaller settlements had already packed up and evacuated to other regions years ago.

Now, with the explicit warning of celestial anomalies, although the migration of these large Shelter Cities is not easy, at least there is ample preparation time to avoid panic.

However, the core problem lies in the fact that with the loss of a province’s living space, once the surviving humans pour into other regions, the intensity of resource competition will undoubtedly drastically increase.

Stone Province, adjacent to Flower Province, is barren and resource-poor, and cannot bear too large a population, so it may temporarily not become the core destination for migration.

However, Stone Province’s strategic location serves as a necessary path to Guang, Sha, Sea, and Lake provinces, ensuring it can intercept a portion of the population.

Among these four provinces, Guang and Lake provinces are relatively resource-rich, but correspondingly, the power competition has long heated up to a critical point, with entrenched forces and dominant Shelter Cities presiding, making resource allocation already saturated.

Now, with an additional dozen large Shelter Cities and nearly millions of mouths forcibly squeezed in, the fragile balance will completely collapse.

No one can foresee the kind of conflict and chaos this unprecedented migration will ignite.

Will it be a bloody battle for water sources, or a fiery struggle to seize safe strongholds?

Or, for survival resources, will forces that originally didn’t interfere with each other tear their facades apart, setting off a tumultuous struggle sweeping across several provinces?

After all… Winter is coming!

With the acceleration of the Eternal Night, this winter in Flower Province is bound to be unimaginably harsh.

The Shelter Cities will not passively wait for doom and will surely set off into the migration before the end of autumn, just like his field plan, with less than three months of a window period.

During this time, integrating and reallocating internal resources, organizing large-scale population relocation, rebuilding temporary strongholds, and constantly being on guard against a sudden infected outbreak… Each task is a life-or-death test, with the slightest misstep leading to catastrophe.

“Thank you for providing the intelligence.”

Cheng Ye put away the Defense Communication, “I’ll probably head out for fieldwork in the middle of this month, and I’ll communicate with the higher-ups. If permission is granted, you can come with us to Guang Province to take a look.”

“Uh…” Yu Yong was visibly stunned, his eyes full of surprise.

Even though he had been shackled by the Elder with special means, and when not using his abilities, he was no different from a Source Binder, his nature never changed. He was the Infected Body, and a malignant anti-state mother source Infected Body at that.

No matter where it erupts, it could potentially bring a city-destroying terror disaster!

After a moment of being lost in thought, Yu Yong slowly regained his composure, opened his mouth, and finally squeezed out two words:

“Thank you.”

“Rest assured, until your issue is defined and the truth is clarified, I will not regard you as C35. You are still Yu Yong, still a human being.”

Cheng Ye walked out of the room, and added a sentence, “The premise is, you must continue to control your emotions as you are now.”

Yu Yong did not respond but thoughtfully resumed his horse stance, continuing to feel the extraordinary power around him.

Even more astonishingly, a thick book was raised by his ability, slowly floating before him, with the pages turning automatically.

He could multitask, training to master his powers while focusing on reading and learning, without any distraction.

“This learning ability is just too abnormal…”

Cheng Ye couldn’t help but feel envy, but unfortunately, Yu Yong’s cooperation was still hovering around 35% with difficulty.

Setting aside the identity of the Infected Source, Yu Yong was undoubtedly a rational and intelligent scientific genius, but gaining his complete trust, even until he reaches the end of his life, might never reach 100%.

“I hope my sincerity can be exchanged for a sliver of sincerity.”

Thinking this way, Cheng Ye suddenly felt himself naive to the point of being ridiculous.

Actually thinking of speaking from the heart with a malignant mother source Infected Body.

But then again, his mindset regained peace. Tomorrow or accidents, one never knows which will come first, just like the sudden Eternal Night in the Flower Province.

For now, although unable to finalize cooperation with the Heavy Machinery Faction before field deployment, a blessing in disguise might occur, judging by the attitudes of Wang Rui and Lu Zheng, potentially bringing unexpected joy.

“With trifles settled, the next step is to integrate the construction plan for the next phase and perfect emergency contingencies.”

Cheng Ye returned to the hydroelectric station, once again took out a fully charged Collector, feeling increasingly composed, “Once the skill fusion is completely completed, I can set off for Guang Province.”

After finally having the hydroelectric station, a chance to charge freely, he wouldn’t rush to Guang Province during the winter window period.

As long as his strength can still be enhanced, as long as the extra charging value can still bring benefits.

He will stay in Dapo Town, whether or not going out for fieldwork in spring next year would not be too late.

Having experienced searching in the Celestial Human Martial Domain, and attempting to deconstruct skills to gain runes, he vaguely had a premonition:

The integration of information is definitely not a chaotic superposition, there must be a constrained endpoint.

This endpoint might be a rune, or might form some special substance.

But one thing is for sure, the first node where quantitative changes cause qualitative changes may arrive quickly, but the second node will undoubtedly be terrifically long.
