Under the joint witness of the Star Moon Alliance members,
Li Yueming punched Zhou Wuhai's transformed giant Rat into meat paste.
After confirming that he had really died,
Li Yueming heaved a sigh of relief.
Among the mutated creatures,
The attack power of the giant Rats was not strong.
Its skill points were all used to quickly reproduce and live tenaciously.
Therefore.
Even though Li Yueming was beating Zhou Wuhai up.
It also took a lot of effort to completely kill it.
Amidst the bloody mess, Li Yueming stood up.
Not far away.
Wang Fei, who had heard the news, had already prepared toiletries and new clothes for him.
Li Yueming waved his hand and said, "Send this corpse to the research lab and keep it safe!"
Wang Fei nodded.
He looked at Li Yueming with uncontrollable admiration.
His teacher would always be a legend that no one could look up to.
Just like the shining sun in the darkness!
…
Just like that.
A year passed in the blink of an eye.
Li Yueming was 22 years old.
The conflict between the Alliance and the mutated creatures became more and more intense.
There were dozens of small-scale battles along the mine's transportation routes and hunting team routes.
They both suffered losses.
As the aura of war became stronger.
The entire Alliance became more and more compact.
The workers who built the fortifications worked 24 hours a day.
Many of them were too lazy to sleep.
When they were tired, they would find a place to lie down for a while.
After waking up and eating something, they would hurry back to the construction.
These were all self-initiated organizations by the people.
In addition to distributing food regularly and checking the progress,
There were almost no supervisors.
It wasn't that the Alliance members didn't value fortifications.
It was just that the Alliance was too busy.
Every member wished they could learn the Clone Technique and split themselves in half.
There was really no extra manpower to manage.
But even so…
The defense project was still advancing at a relatively fast speed.
Under the continuous work of tens of thousands of strong laborers,
High walls rose from the ground.
The people spontaneously organized themselves to maintain the stability of the construction site and checked if the construction quality was qualified.
As long as they found any cutting corners, they would immediately order the construction to be rebuilt.
Such a united scene would probably only appear at such a critical moment.
For the sake of his wife and children and his own life.
No one dared to act carelessly.
As the leader of the Star Moon Alliance…
Li Yueming was naturally not idle during this year.
After killing Zhou Wuhai.
Li Yueming began to study the cells of mutated life forms.
Actually, he had tried this a long time ago.
However, the conditions at that time were limited.
As a result, no meaningful results have been achieved.
But now, the battle was about to begin.
The entire Alliance had already done their best for this.
But Li Yueming knew.
Facing the tide of the mutated beasts,
Even if 100,000 players were wiped out, they wouldn't have any chance of winning.
It was just a question of how long he could last.
As for Li Yueming himself, he had to find a breakthrough before the Alliance was broken through.
Only Humans had a chance to win!
On this day.
Li Yueming walked out of the research lab.
He shook off all the guards.
He ran to the bathroom alone to wash up.
Then, he went to find Li Xiyue and prepared to bring her home.
Of course.
Their real home had long been abandoned in the dark underground.
Their parents had already moved to the Surface World.
Li Xiyue would make time to come back every ten days to half a month.
However, Li Yueming had not returned home for several years.
When he arrived at his home on the Surface World.
The thin woman was drying earthworms in the small courtyard.
The moment she saw the two of them,
The earthworms in the woman's hands scattered all over the ground.
She sized up Li Yueming in disbelief.
After confirming that she did not recognize the wrong person,
Only then did tears fall.
She held Li Yueming's hand and rubbed it repeatedly for a moment before saying with a trembling voice, "Child, you're back?"
Li Yueming rubbed his nose.
Compared to the past,
The woman had obviously aged a lot.
Fortunately, she still looked healthy.
This also made the guilt in Li Yueming's heart lessen a little.
He turned his head.
Li Yueming said unnaturally, "I specially took some time out today to have a meal with you guys!"
Hearing this,
The woman took two steps back.
She sized up Li Yueming again.
After confirming that the person in front of her was really her son,
Only then did she smile through her tears. "Alright, alright, alright. Wait at home for a while. I'll call the old man back now!"
Now, the entire Alliance was filled with soldiers.
However, as Li Yueming's parents,
Even if the two elders lay down every day and did not work,
Probably no one would dare to cause trouble.
However, his father admitted that he could not help his son much.
Therefore, they decided to go and build fortifications with their fellow villagers.
The people at the side could not stop them.
…
In the evening.
Li Yueming and his family of four sat at the dining table.
He looked at his handsome son in front of him.
His father got up and went to the backyard to search. A moment later, he actually brought back a pot of wine from the courtyard.
Ever since he moved to the Surface World,
The Alliance already had the ability to brew small-scale wine.
However, this thing was very strictly controlled.
He wondered where his cheapskate father had gotten it from.
He poured a glass of wine for Li Yueming.
He refilled his glass.
He picked up his wine glass and took a sip before sighing. "You've grown up!"
Li Yueming also raised his glass and drank it in one gulp.
But he didn't say anything.
His father was usually not very smart.
However, for some reason, he was exceptionally alert today.
From the beginning to the end, he did not ask or say anything.
The father and son drank one glass after another.
Finally.
He drank until he was a little dizzy.
The old man took Li Yueming's hand and said while reeking of alcohol, "Kid, you're almost 23 years old this year. When are you going to find a wife?"
Beside him.
The thin woman took advantage of the situation and said, "I know you're busy with work. When you get married and have a grandson, bring him for us!"
Hearing this,
Li Yueming could not help but smile bitterly.
In the entire Star Moon Alliance, only these two people could mention this in front of him.
The others probably wouldn't dare to say anything about this even if they had guts.
Beside him.
Seeing her brother suffer.
Li Xiyue couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh.
The few of them drank and ate. The atmosphere was harmonious.
It was as if they had temporarily returned to a peaceful society where Humans could still dominate the world a long time ago.
However…
Good times were always short.
At night.
Li Yueming and Li Xiyue prepared to leave.
After all, the entire Star Moon Alliance was in a critical period.
Li Yueming and Li Xiyue were both the highest decision-makers with absolute authority.
Things like disappearing from the face of the earth would definitely cause chaos as time passed.
But at this moment.
His father, who was already sound asleep, suddenly woke up.
He stood up and stopped the two people who were about to leave.
Although he was still drunk.
However, he still tried his best to enunciate clearly, "Children, do whatever you want. No matter what, this is your home. Your mother and I… are proud of the two of you!"
Then.
The old man shuffled back to the table.
After burping, he lay down and continued to sleep.
It was as if nothing had happened.
…
