Tang Li collected all the corpses scattered on the ground into her space and removed them. She then remembered something.
After the incident where she ate corpses, she had considered cooperating with the authorities. She wanted them to hand over human corpses to her so she could convert them into spatial energy and replicate food for people. This would eliminate the corpses and provide sustenance.
However, without revealing her replication space, she couldn't cooperate with the authorities in this manner.
According to Song Pinxuan, in the previous life, the rules of the underground city were that corpses would be used to feed insects and other creatures.
If she were to live as an ordinary person in an official underground city, her corpse would also be processed in the same way after her death.
Even if she revealed her abilities, her body, containing mysterious substances, might still be used for scientific research.
Although she believed the authorities' handling of such matters would not be offensive to her, she still preferred not to be subjected to such treatment if she could be cremated after death.
Tang Li sighed and flew to a high mountain beside the G City shelter, gazing towards the south.
That direction was towards Hai City.
In her previous life, after the meteor impact in March of the following year, a sudden massive tsunami submerged the entire Hai City. The Hai City underground city was wiped out before it could even be completed.
Tens of millions of people gathered in Hai City in the southern region of China perished in that terrifying tsunami.
It could be said that if the island chains outside of China still existed, this colossal tsunami would not have directly impacted China's mainland.
However, unfortunately, this entire chain of islands was located on seismic belts.
They all sank to the seabed during a massive earthquake.
This exposed China's entire southeastern coast to the devastating waves of the tsunami.
It wasn't until the volcanic eruptions began that the newly formed land from the undersea volcanoes created new island chains, once again protecting China's southeastern coast.
At this moment, Tang Li suddenly thought, "What if, after the tsunami recedes, I rebuild the Hai City underground city..."
However, she immediately shook her head.
Song Pinxuan knew about the natural disasters that would occur in the next 30 years.
He had already informed the authorities about the current major earthquake in advance.
He had also informed them in advance about the subsequent massive tsunami, acid rain, and even more distant natural disasters that Tang Li had not experienced.
Previously, due to the extreme heat and uncertainty about the accuracy of Song Pinxuan's prophetic dreams, the authorities had not taken action.
But after experiencing this major earthquake, the authorities were surely convinced that Song Pinxuan's prophetic dreams were accurate.
Once the earthquake stabilized, they would definitely begin to prepare for the upcoming natural disasters, including that massive tsunami.
In this life, the Hai City Governor's Office would certainly not foolishly wait for the tsunami in Hai City. They would relocate the population to areas outside the tsunami's reach and settle them, returning to the Hai City shelter after the waves receded.
Furthermore, with the engineering mechs invented by Song Pinxuan greatly accelerating the construction speed of underground cities, the Hai City underground city might even be completed earlier, at least partially.
In any case, it wouldn't be her turn to capitalize on the situation by continuing the half-built Hai City underground city and claiming it as her own.
But this thought opened up Tang Li's mind.
If she had her own underground city, where she had complete control, she wouldn't have to fear being discovered while replicating supplies within it.
With the official status of an underground city, she could also collect the corpses of the city's residents into her space and remove them, exchanging them for spatial energy to replicate ample food, ensuring the city's inhabitants never lacked sustenance.
She could also replicate coal. Even if she couldn't collect her own corpse into her space after death, she could use coal for cremation.
This way, all the problems that had been troubling her would be solved!
Tang Li patted her head and said, "That's right! Why didn't I think of this before? I can totally build my own underground city!"
Tang Li's space contained all sorts of materials in sufficient quantities, enough to build an underground city by herself.
She could also leverage her cooperation with the authorities to collect the underground city modules already built by them into her space, and then she could replicate them infinitely.
As for the labor force for building the underground city, unlike the authorities who risked high mortality rates using criminals, she could use wireless brain-controlled robots.
Even if the wireless brain-controlled robots overheated, they could be returned to her space and replicated again, with no attrition at all.
With this realization, Tang Li felt a surge of clarity.
