Hearing this,
Li Yueming's expression slowly turned solemn.
Everyone knew that.
Almost all the Humans around Fallout Shelter 0911 were under the command of the Star Moon Alliance.
It was impossible for other survivors to be active in the wilderness.
As such…
The enemy who attacked the Transport team was obvious.
Most of them were mutated creatures from Fallout Shelter 0911.
Judging from the footprints of the humanoid creature,
The attacker was most likely a mid-level mutated creature with a very complete evolution level.
In addition,
It was worth mentioning.
According to the 0911 Survivors Alliance,
Currently, the mutated creatures in the world are divided into three levels.
The lowest level mutated creature showed that after absorbing the strange substance, its body had undergone various mutations that ordinary people could not understand.
Other than being more irritable, their physique and strength had increased greatly.
In the end, it still belonged to the category of wild beasts.
Most of the mutated creatures that the Alliance had come into contact with after coming to the surface were these low-level mutated creatures.
As for the mid-level mutated creatures that had evolved more perfectly, they had evolved intelligence on the basis of low-level mutated creatures.
Among them, the smartest intermediate-level creatures could even display intelligence comparable to ordinary Humans.
Moreover, most of the mid-level mutated creatures had evolved with human characteristics.
For example, after the giant snake evolved into a second-grade mutated creature, a considerable portion of it had a human head and a snake body.
It could only be said that it was fortunate that there were no myths or legends abouts snakes in this world.
Otherwise, there might really be people who were so mesmerized by the snake demon that they could not walk.
As for high-level mutated creatures…
Such an existence had almost lost the characteristics of a beast.
If the other party did not want to show it.
Even a normal Human would not be able to tell.
That was not the only terrifying thing about high-level mutated creatures.
They were infected by the strangeness and had almost perfect physiques.
Each individual could bury mountains and overturn seas.
It had the strength to make ordinary Humans tremble.
Of course.
It was extremely difficult for such a high-level lifeform to evolve.
Even among the mutated creatures, such existences were extremely rare.
In addition, there is a category above these three categories.
That was the royal family.
It was rumored that there were a total of eight royal families.
They were the first creatures to evolve after the violent explosion.
Among them.
Each of the eight royal clans had evolved into a unique innate ability.
Their existence was a well-deserved nightmare for Humans.
And now.
The Transport team might have encountered mid-level mutated creatures.
Moreover, it was an organized and premeditated ambush.
This wave of attacks was very ruthless.
Not only did it kill nearly a hundred members of the Transport Team,
It also directly caused the mining and smelting industry of the entire Alliance to stop production.
It was precisely because of this
That was why the upper echelons were so furious.
He rubbed his chin.
Li Yueming looked at Wang Fei and asked, "Has the Exploration Team checked?"
Wang Fei nodded. "Of course. However, other than a series of messy footprints, the enemy did not leave any additional traces!"
Li Yueming thought for a moment and didn't say anything else.
Instead, he changed the topic. "How much steel have you gathered?"
In the past two years.
The Star Moon Alliance had collected steel on a large scale.
In addition to the necessary tools and weapons.
Almost all the steel in the entire territory was forcefully confiscated.
It was stored in an extremely hidden warehouse.
Hearing Li Yueming's question,
Wang Fei glanced at it, lowered his head, and reported a number.
Hearing this,
Li Yueming frowned.
Apparently.
This steel in storage was less than he had imagined.
As such…
It was not time to give up on the iron ore in the south.
He made a decision.
Li Yueming said, "Send the Scarlet Squad to patrol the mine. They will escort the ore back to the base!"
Hearing Li Yueming's order,
All the members present looked surprised.
The Scarlet Squad was a newly formed team formed by the Star Moon Alliance in the second half of last year.
Its members were all the strongest experts carefully selected from the Hunter team and the Exploration Team.
There were less than 200 people in the entire team.
It was the trump card.
In the entire Star Moon Alliance.
Except for Li Yueming.
No one could command the Scarlet Squad.
And now.
In order to enter the mountains to continue mining,
Li Yueming did not hesitate to send out the Scarlet Squad.
This was something that no one had expected.
Below the stage, some of the higher-ups did not quite understand this.
He opened his mouth.
In the end, he mustered his courage and asked, "Teacher, although the mine is very important, isn't it a little too much to send out the Scarlet Squad for this?"
The other members nodded in agreement.
They all said, "That's right. Even if it's a mid-level mutated creature, we can send two Exploration Teams!"
Li Yueming glanced at them.
He smiled and said, "Don't be anxious. You'll understand after watching it slowly. This game… has just begun!"
At this point,
Li Yueming paused.
He did not give them any time to react.
With a wave of his hand, he said again, "Pass down the order. From today onwards, other than the logistics team that guarantees daily expenses, all troops will urgently shrink and start building city walls and fortifications!"
Hearing this,
Almost 90% of the upper echelons in the Star Moon Alliance could not believe their ears.
Only a small number of people were prepared for this.
After everyone dispersed.
Li Xiyue, who was standing behind Li Yueming, had a solemn expression.
As the publicly acknowledged little genius of the Star Moon Alliance.
After two years of training, Li Xiyue already knew everything about the Alliance like the back of her hand.
Therefore.
There were many things that Li Yueming could hide from others.
But he could not hide it from her.
In fact, many of Li Yueming's arrangements were personally handled by her.
The attack of the mid-level mutated creatures was like the first wave of a tsunami.
Now.
The waves had arrived.
Could the real monstrous waves be far away?
Seeing that the other members had all left,
Li Xiyue sighed.
She asked worriedly, "Brother, will the day still come?"
Li Yueming rubbed the little girl's soft hair and said gently, "Those mutated creatures know our every move like the back of their hands. That's why I said that this day would come sooner or later. It's already beyond my expectations that we lasted out this long!"
As he spoke, Li Yueming teased, "Why? Are you afraid?"
Li Xiyue waved her petite fist and said, "I'm the reincarnation of Emperor Vicious. How can I be afraid?"
Li Yueming couldn't help but flick her head. "Then why?"
Hearing this…
The smile on the little girl's face suddenly disappeared slowly.
There was a rare seriousness in her eyes.
Their eyes met.
Li Xiyue said word by word, "I just hate that I haven't grown up and can't help you much!"
Hearing this, Li Yueming also looked away.
Actually, at this moment, he really wanted to pull his sensible sister into his arms.
However, the remaining rationality in his heart reminded him that he could not do this.
In this life.
As the leader of the Star Moon Alliance.
Li Yueming felt that he had a clear conscience.
And yet.
As his sister's brother.
As the teacher of the students.
As the son of his parents.
He was undoubtedly a failure.
However, at this moment, he was like an old leader.
Therefore.
He could only turn his head away.
He smiled and said perfunctorily, "Your existence is my best cure for all my worries. When you grow up, I still have to rely on you to take care of me!"
Li Xiyue ignored his words.
She was still staring at him.
There was a long pause.
The little girl suddenly hugged his arm and said uneasily, "Brother, you will win like before, right?"
This time.
Li Yueming finally did not dodge.
He patted her head gently and said seriously, "Don't worry, I will build a world with stars and the moon for you! At that time, no one will have to worry about tomorrow!"
The girl raised her head innocently.
He stuck out his little finger and said, "Then you must do it. Pinky swear, hang yourself. You're not allowed to change for a hundred years!"
