Qin Yexuan left the room.
Zhu Xiaoqing would definitely not be able to accept this fact for a while.
Zhu Tianqi would also need enough time to explain the whole matter.
Leaving them with an opportunity to be alone, he himself had countless things waiting.
"Sir, Director Chen has woken up and insists on seeing you."
Qin Yexuan nodded and went to the dean's office.
Chen Wange, director of the Chaoge City Management Office, was half-lying on a stretcher. Seeing Qin Yexuan, he struggled to get up.
"You lie down," Qin Yexuan said softly as he sat down.
Director Chen's gaze was filled with gratitude and a hint of awe.
He had been suspended in Zhu Jinlang's camp. Although his consciousness was blurred, he vaguely knew the strength of this college student.
Qin Yexuan took a sip of tea. "There's no need for any words of gratitude. I want to ask you, has Zhu Xiaotian taken control of this city, and to what extent?"
Director Chen took a breath. "The train station, water, electricity, and communications are all controlled by his subordinates. At first, we in the higher echelons thought about voting him out, but as soon as he received the news, his demeanor changed. I was in charge of the city's water, electricity, and communications, and he directly locked me up."
No wonder Zhu Xiaotian's plan was progressing so quickly.
It turned out that the high-level officials of Chaoge had already begun to resist.
"What else do you know?"
"I overheard him plotting with those monks... They said they wanted to refine some kind of demon slaves, turning the innocent people of Chaoge into slaves for the demons."
"They also said that at the Dragon Gate Assembly, they would have the Pure Land descend, and then, with Chaoge as the center, they would invade in all directions. Oh, and their second step was to cooperate with some monks from the East Sea. Once things here were done, the East Sea would cooperate..."
Director Chen scratched his head. "Cooperate with what monks, I can't quite remember."
Qin Yexuan said in a deep voice, "Cooperate with the Baigje monks from Qinglong Temple on the Korean Peninsula, right?"
Director Chen slapped his forehead. "Yes, that's it. At first, I thought it was funny, but later, those demons turned into humans in front of me, and in a flash, they became eminent cultivators of the United Buddhist and Dao Association."
Director Chen's face was filled with terror. "I only realized then that those legends were true, and the demons were going to destroy this world."
Everyone felt a chill down their spines.
Just then, all the lights suddenly went out, plunging the entire academy into darkness.
Then the high-rise buildings and residential areas around the academy followed.
Within a few minutes, the ancient city was extinguished.
...
Chaoge City's water, electricity, gas, heating, and communications were completely cut off.
Qin Yexuan looked at the land shrouded in darkness. "We need to prepare to evacuate the entire city."
Li Tianxing arrived in a hurry that evening, his broadsword at his waist. "I have already contacted the high-level officials of Zhongzhou. They have built temporary resettlement sites in the four regions of Chaoge City, which can accommodate one million people."
Qin Yexuan calculated. "The number of people who need to be evacuated from Chaoge is at least three million. Evacuating the entire city is already very difficult, and now with communication completely cut off, even satellites are useless. The first problem we need to solve is to establish a city-wide communication network."
"Once this network is established, I can proceed to the second step, creating a major event in the Longmen River to attract the attention of the Buddhist, Daoist, and demon races. Then, Tianxing can send the troops into the city for a full evacuation."
Qin Yexuan looked at Li Tianxing. "Make a plan and see how long it will take to evacuate everyone."
Li Tianxing gestured towards the warehouse. "Just like with the students, we will use soap bubbles to establish a larger transit point in the Lingmeng Mountain valley. We have already temporarily opened a road outside the valley. We will transport the evacuated people by car and plane."
Qin Yexuan's eyes flashed, and he walked directly towards the warehouse.
The steel structure gate surrounding the warehouse opened. The huge soap bubble, roughly calculated, was about twenty meters in diameter.
"Theoretically, twenty people can pass through side by side at once. With proper organization, the evacuation speed will be very fast."
Li Tianxing calculated, "We can get seventy to eighty thousand people through at once!"
Qin Yexuan shook his head. "It won't be that perfect. With families, crying children, the elderly, the sick, and luggage... even with the best organization, it will be a miracle if twenty thousand people can pass at once."
"Moreover, even if seventy thousand people can pass at once, it will still take at least two days and two nights to evacuate everyone. Add the time for pre-organization and assembly, and it will take more than four days! This is absolutely unacceptable. We can only attract the demons at the Longmen River for a maximum of one day."
Li Tianxing looked at Director Chen.
Director Chen had already been calculating in his mind. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your plan is too childish. The best plan is to retake more than 400 buses in the city, plus 170 trains. We have practiced this on the sand table before. If people cooperate well, we can evacuate everyone in eight days. Eight days! That's the absolute minimum time."
Li Tianxing was speechless. Mr. Qin couldn't even accept two days, let alone eight.
Qin Yexuan looked at the wide commercial area three streets away from the academy.
"Tianxing, look. The commercial area surrounded by four pedestrian streets has six large shopping malls, as well as hotels, amusement parks, hospitals, and so on. If we make the soap bubble larger and let it land directly in this commercial area, people can be transported to the Lingmeng Mountain evacuation point all at once."
Li Tianxing and Fang Ling Su looked on, somewhat puzzled.
Fang Ling Su asked, "But how will it be organized?"
Qin Yexuan smiled. "It's precisely for the sake of organization. It's impossible to issue an announcement now, or for you to visit them one by one to persuade them to evacuate. Just the explanation time is not enough."
Director Chen nodded heavily. "Indeed, people won't cooperate."
"So I want to use the commercial area. Two plans will proceed in parallel. First, spread a rumor that the six major shopping malls and commercial streets in Chaoge are no longer managed and people can take whatever they want."
"Second, spread another piece of information, saying that Chaoge has encountered a poisonous fog, and the medicine that can detoxify is in the three hospitals within the commercial area. Now, no one is in charge. As soon as you enter the hospital, you can get the antidote. This message needs to be coordinated with Ling Su's side."
Qin Yexuan thought silently for a moment. "These two messages, when released, will exploit the biggest weaknesses in human nature: greed and the fear of death!"
If people hear that the things in the big shopping malls can be taken for free, and you don't go, others will rush to grab them. This will immediately attract everyone in the city to rush into the commercial area.
Coupled with the antidote in the hospital, the remaining people will also rush in.
"These two groups of people will rush towards the shopping malls from all directions, but in reality, they will enter the soap bubble and go directly to the Lingmeng Mountain evacuation site. Then, it will be easier to educate and guide them. We must ensure that there is enough space and absolutely no trampling!"
The remaining people in their homes, hospitals, and nursing homes are the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. The troops will be dispatched to transport them to Lingmeng Mountain by transport planes.
This is the best plan.
Even if it's slower, the entire evacuation plan can be completed in less than two days.
There are only two difficult points.
The first is how to enlarge the soap bubble's space so that it can perfectly cover the commercial area.
The second is the need for a city-wide communication network to facilitate the operations of Li Tianxing's troops.
Qin Yexuan pondered in silence.
Everyone looked at him with anticipation.
"Let's solve the first problem first. I will personally negotiate with Ayu from the small world!"
