"Hiss~"
The roar of the steam made Li Yan raise his chin unconsciously.
The armored vehicle passed through several sentry posts and barbed wire, and an old, bustling, and vibrant town appeared in front of Li Yan.
Taverns with wooden signs, old but tidy hotels, vendors with embroidered tent cloth, glittering telegraph poles, and the crisscrossing cables that delivered electricity to every corner of the town.
Concrete mixers with black casings rumbled loudly, and the scorching asphalt sloppily spread on the ground, with heat rising. On the partially repaired new road, pickup trucks fully loaded or armored combat vehicles fully armed occasionally rolled by. Around them, black low-rise buildings were scattered, with intense noises coming from inside, and tall chimneys spewed out huge clouds of murky smoke, which merged into the radiation clouds.
This was the first time Li Yan had seen a large-scale settlement with a semblance of "humanity" since coming to this world.
