Chapter 19
New Journey, Explorer Team 001!
He looked at the information in his mind.
Li Yueming looked interested.
After so many deductions,
This was the first time he had seen other humans outside the Underground World.
To him.
This was undoubtedly a very attractive discovery.
According to the information revealed by Zhou Wuhai,
Fallout Shelter 0911 had been occupied by monsters many years ago.
And now.
What were the identities of the strange people who appeared in the deduction?
They were survivors of Fallout Shelter 0911.
Or was it some other unknown force?
He thought about it for a long time.
Li Yueming could not come up with any accurate conclusions.
Next.
Li Yueming performed more than ten deductions.
Overall.
He had gained a lot from these deductions.
He had yet to step out of the Underground World.
However, he had checked most of the surroundings of the Surface World.
Moreover, he had collected a lot of extremely precious information.
Now, he finally had the confidence to officially step foot on the Surface World.
Of course.
Before that.
The Underground World still needed to make some necessary preparations.
He wasted no time.
That night.
Li Yueming gathered all the members of the Star Moon Alliance for an emergency meeting.
The meeting had three core elements.
The first.
Increase efforts to scale up the earthworm farms.
No matter when or where.
Food was always the basic necessity for the development of civilization.
The second.
To form a new unit.
The official name of the new army was kept a secret for the time being. The members would be chosen from the secret guards of the Star Moon Alliance.
Every one of them had to be an elite among elites.
The third.
To strengthen the talents of the Underground World.
From the day the order was given.
All six to eighteen-year-olds had to attend classes every week.
After announcing the decision.
The Star-Moon Alliance’s members began to get busy.
After destroying the remaining forces of the three kings,
The Star-Moon Alliance was now fully deserving of the title of Ruler of the Underground.
No faction or individual dared to challenge the current Alliance.
Therefore.
The order that Li Yueming read out was executed very quickly.
The first was scaling up the earthworm farming.
They lived in a world where resources were extremely poor.
The importance of stable, nutritious food goes without saying.
The execution of this order was also the fastest.
Li Yueming finished his meeting that day.
The next day, the various sewers had already begun to recruit more workers to increase production and cultivate.
At the same time.
The formation of the new troops was also in full swing.
The Alliance was very curious about the mission of this army.
However, Li Yueming had never revealed it to anyone.
Therefore.
Many members could only make wild guesses.
However, this did not affect the members’ enthusiasm.
The reason was simple.
This was because Li Yueming had said during the meeting that he would be the leader of the newly established team.
That’s right.
This alone was enough to drive many members crazy.
As for the last order.
This was the most difficult one to implement.
The Underground was neither big nor small.
There would always be some stubborn fellows among the hundred thousand refugees.
Just studying only is useless.
In order to let these guys go to the public schools established by the various sewers,
The patrols under the Star Moon Alliance had spent a lot of effort on this.
However, the effect was still very ordinary.
Many people would resist even if they were forcefully taken to school.
It was considered a good attitude to have even if they were not interested in learning.
Some of them would even openly disrupt the order of the classroom.
Finally.
Li Yueming got someone to spread the news.
He said that in the future, when the Star Moon Alliance recruited members and workers, they would only accept those with outstanding academic results.
Only then was this time-consuming and labor-intensive system promoted.
After doing all this,
Another year passed.
Li Yueming was sixteen years old.
He sensed that time was of the essence.
In the past year.
The entire Star Moon Alliance turned into a huge work machine under his hands.
First of all.
They promoted large-scale farming of earthworms.
This technique was improved and perfected by Li Yueming.
It was already quite mature.
Currently, the world is still short of resources.
However, many ordinary civilians had enough to fill their stomachs.
During festive seasons, they could even have meat.
This revived the originally lifeless Underground World and ushered in a rare wave of prosperity.
And because of the compulsory education plan.
More and more talents began to appear in the entire Underground World.
Most of these people chose to join the Star Moon Alliance, providing an endless supply of new blood for the development.
In addition,
Li Yueming’s team of explorers had also been established.
When the team was first established, there were a total of 100 people.
Zhou Wuhai was the team’s martial arts instructor.
Wang Fei was the vice-captain.
Every one of them was an outstanding warrior who had stood out from thousands of competitors.
But even so…
Under the torture of Li Yueming’s intensive training plan,
After training for half a year.
There were less than 30 members left in the entire Exploration Team.
Eventually.
Li Yueming taught the remaining thirty members the new breathing technique that had been modified several times.
This version of the breathing technique was more perfect than the original breathing technique.
Moreover, as long as it was not extremely exhausting.
The new breathing technique will not affect the user’s lifespan.
Of course.
Li Yueming’s breathing technique was much more violent than theirs.
After obtaining the training method.
The physical fitness of the Exploration Team improved by leaps and bounds.
They became the first batch of super soldiers under Li Yueming.
It had unparalleled combat strength.
On this day.
Li Yueming’s sixteenth birthday.
He looked at the determined members of the Exploration Team below the stage.
Li Yueming’s expression was solemn.
He took a deep breath and said, “I’m sure you’re very curious why I established a new army and why I’m so strict with you during training!”
Below the stage.
A group of strong youths said in unison, “Teacher, you don’t have to explain to us. Your orders are everything!”
Hearing the youngsters’ answers,
Li Yueming smiled.
He did not doubt the team’s loyalty to him.
However, the more this was the case, the more Li Yueming felt uneasy.
He looked around.
Li Yueming’s gaze swept across the faces of every youth below the stage.
Most of them had yet to start a family and were at the peak of their lives.
If not for the Cataclysm.
At this moment, they should be playing games and eating desserts.
Or be wooing beautiful girls one after another.
But now…
However, because of him, they are about to embark on a path where they might not be able to return.
Even though Li Yueming had a heart of stone.
At this moment, he was a little moved.
After some thought, he said, “You’ve already passed the training plan I’ve drawn up for you. Now, I’ll announce the mission and responsibility you’re about to take on!”
Hearing this,
The expressions of the youths below the stage all tensed up.
In reality.
Even though Li Yueming did not mention it once.
However, they could already vaguely guess Li Yueming’s goal from the training content.
There was no hesitation.
The team member straightened his neck and said excitedly, “We are willing to sacrifice our lives for Teacher!!”
He looked at the team members below the stage.
Li Yueming didn’t have much of an expression on his face. “I don’t need you to sacrifice your lives, nor do I need you to pledge your loyalty to me to the death! Next, the mission I gave you will have a slim chance of survival. You can choose to refuse to participate. I won’t force any of you!”
A young man below the stage laughed when he heard that.
Among them, Wang Fei was the first to stand up and retort, “Teacher, from the moment we joined this team, we never thought of leaving alive!”
Seeing this situation,
Li Yueming was silent for a long time.
He suddenly smiled.
He said frankly, “You are named Explorer 001. You are the first advance party of the underground humans to the Surface World!”
“Next, you will face a Surface World civilization that is completely different from the Underground World!”
“If the exploration is successful, you will be recorded in history thousands of years later. Your parents, your wives, and all the Human compatriots in the entire 0911 underground fallout shelter civilization will be proud of you!”
“Of course…”
“More likely, you will be buried in the mouths of wild beasts and become a pile of feces in the stomachs of wild beasts that no one cares about!”
“That’s all I have to say!”
“I’ll give you three days to consider!”
“Three days later, if you still choose to persevere, then gather here!”
