Chapter 163 Energy Gathering Point
Ignoring the online uproar, Long Xiaoxiao circled above the now-ruined city once before silently flying back to City A, landing at Xingyin Mountain.
She has already returned the props containing humans to her system space to ensure there won't be any problems.
At this time, the outside world was still speculating about the earthquake, and some people were worried about how they would deal with these disasters if Long Xiaoxiao left.
The system scanned the area and, after confirming that not many people were making outrageous statements, nodded in satisfaction and turned to check the increase in points.
The merit points haven't increased much yet, at least not enough to fill the gap in purchasing items. This might be because not all those trapped inside the items are out of danger. However, the increase of over 2,800 points is far beyond the system's budget, so he's still quite satisfied.
Looking at the faith value, it has increased dramatically, currently rising by nearly 70,000 points. This shows that the Mustard Seed Space items have indeed had a significant impact on the humans here.
The system finished calculating the gains from this event and was quite satisfied. It turned to report to Long Xiaoxiao, but Long Xiaoxiao absentmindedly responded with a few perfunctory "uh-huhs".
Seeing her like this, the system remembered that the earthquake issue had not yet been resolved, so it quickly reminded her, "Xiaoxiao, go and tell Rongming about this."
Long Xiaoxiao nodded. She had been thinking about how to handle the situation, and the system's advice immediately clarified her thoughts. She flicked her tail and prepared to go find Rong Ming, but the next second she saw that he had already come to find her with food.
To ensure that there would be hot food available as soon as Long Xiaoxiao returned, Rongming and the others made sure that the canteen always had hot dishes ready. So, after only a short time since Long Xiaoxiao returned, Rongming had already happily had food brought over.
Long Xiaoxiao paused, no longer flicking the tip of his tail, but instead slightly raised his body, trying his best to portray the image of a majestic dragon god.
Fortunately, her handsome appearance made the performance very simple. When Rong Ming looked up and saw Long Xiaoxiao's expression, his heart skipped a beat, wondering what Long Xiaoxiao needed to tell him.
They knew the earthquake situation wasn't fully resolved, and they had already started preparing for the aftermath for the victims. The situation in the west was unstable, so post-disaster reconstruction had to be put aside for now. They planned to first create a safe resettlement area for the victims.
Rong Ming had not yet discussed this idea with Long Xiaoxiao, and planned to make preparations first before informing her.
Rong Ming was a little scared by Long Xiaoxiao's current appearance.
Just as Rong Ming began to have wild thoughts, Long Xiaoxiao finally spoke up: "The earthquake was not caused by nature."
His words were like a thunderclap, causing everyone present to widen their eyes, even the soldiers responsible for carrying food were stunned.
Earthquakes are not natural phenomena?
But who could possibly trigger the Earth's crustal movement? They couldn't understand it. Could it be a deity like the Azure Dragon God? But why would a deity do such a thing for no reason?
Everyone was confused.
Long Xiaoxiao explained briefly: "They are using formations to deprive the world of its fortune, and the core of these formations is spread all over the world."
The sentence was simple and easy to understand. Rong Ming immediately realized that Long Xiaoxiao meant for him to find a way to solve the formation, so he hurriedly said, "Lord Azure Dragon God, please just tell us what you need."
After saying that, Rongming raised his head slightly, his eyes filled with unwavering loyalty beneath his prominent brows.
Long Xiaoxiao nodded, pondered for a few seconds, and then asked the system, "Uncle, what does the array core look like? How do we get Uncle Rongming and the others to find it?"
The system silently looked at the extremely brief instruction manual sent to it by its colleague, and after a long while, it hesitated before speaking: "Uh... it's probably an energy gathering point. Just find the item responsible for gathering energy and destroy it."
Long Xiaoxiao relayed the message to Rong Ming, but Rong Ming looked troubled upon hearing it.
An energy gathering point? Rong Ming couldn't understand it. If he had to put it into words, it would be a power plant. But there are so many power plants in China alone. Which one was it? And to destroy the energy gathering device, did he have to destroy the generator?
Seeing Rong Ming's troubled expression, Long Xiaoxiao immediately asked the system, "Uncle, where is the energy gathering point? They don't know."
The system gave a wry smile.
Does he know that?
The system was filled with resentment.
However, considering that if the mission could not be completed, Long Xiaoxiao would ultimately suffer losses, the system thought about it several times and simply told Long Xiaoxiao to tell Rong Ming and the others to take Tang Xuan and the others to find them.
Long Xiaoxiao honestly said to Rong Ming, "Take Tang Xuan and the others to go and look for them."
Tang Xuan and the others had by then become "police dogs".
Upon hearing the reply, Rongming nodded hurriedly.
When Rong Ming left to find Tang Xuan and Tang De, they were fast asleep at home. The talisman-drawing had taken a toll on their energy, and they hadn't recovered in the past few days, needing to sleep for a long time each day to make up for the lost sleep.
Before they could fully recover, Rong Ming and his men stormed into their home, dragged them out of bed, and led them all the way to Xingyin Mountain, where he relayed everything Long Xiaoxiao had said to the two still half asleep.
Tang Xuan was still rubbing her eyes and yawning in a daze. After listening to Rong Ming's words, she finally regained some energy. She turned her head to discuss a few words with her grandfather, but saw that Tang De was already sleeping soundly in a crooked position.
Tang Xuan: "..."
She sighed silently, turned her head without saying anything, and said seriously to Rong Ming, "I roughly understand what an energy gathering point means, but I still need a general location, as the area I can sense is very small."
Rongming was relieved to hear Tang Xuan say this.
Tang De Divination could be used to find the approximate location. Although Long Xiaoxiao really wanted to help them, the system couldn't detect anything unusual, so she had no choice but to give up.
Because the array's cores are spread across the globe, neither Long Xiaoxiao nor China intended to hide the information from other countries, and truthfully informed them of the news.
When Li Guo first heard about this, he thought that Hua Guo was up to something. But when he found that his own country was honestly searching for the so-called array core item, Li Guo really panicked and straightened his mind.
If the guidance was given by the Azure Dragon God, then it's truly terrifying.
They had seen pictures of earthquake-stricken cities in western China and knew the extent of the damage. Now, regardless of whether it was true or not, no one dared to disbelieve it.
