Chapter 25: Chapter 23 The Changes in Human Civilization

"Yunhai City government, fully ensure the people's legitimate rights and interests in all aspects!"

"The Public Security Bureau strikes hard, severely cracking down on all kinds of illegal crimes!"

"Now we play an urgent notice: all military veterans are to assemble at the various street offices."

"Now we play a notice..."

Loudspeakers at every corner of the city blared to life.

This was a great war, a war of humanity's brilliance against darkness, and a major test for civilization.

Many civilizations had collapsed suddenly, falling into a state of doomsday revelry, with production paralyzed overnight, never to rise again.

By the time the remaining population restored order, decades might have passed...

But there were also many civilizations that were only temporarily in chaos, or only had a bit of minor unrest.

It seemed to be night on Pangu Continent now, but as the sun rose again, a day passed just like that.

The temperature was 25 degrees Celsius, quite comfortable.

Yunhai City, the capital of a province in the Great Dong Country, had a land area of about twelve thousand square kilometers within the Safe Zone, and a total population of around ten million.

In the wake of this huge disaster, the various departments of the Yunhai City government had been paralyzed for a few hours before they sprang into action with incredible speed.

"All satellite networks have completely lost contact! We definitely can't connect with Earth anymore."

"Earthquake rescue operations are underway, and the number of casualties is not high... Currently, there are 7 deaths, and over a hundred people are buried."

"The law enforcement department reports that they've struck hard against over five hundred criminals..."

"It can be confirmed that we have indeed lost contact with Earth. The entire Yunhai City is situated on a corner of Pangu Continent, relying on a large lake about the size of Poyang Lake."

"Work on restoring the power grid is still underway; it will take about 3 more hours to restore electricity in the urban areas, and 1-2 days in remote areas."

"But in our power plants, there is not much coal reserve; it will be consumed in about 10 days."

"Let's use it sparingly for now, as factories are shut down, we won't need that much electricity."

"Several granaries and large logistics centers have been successfully controlled... If we ration according to wartime standards and be prudent, we can sustain grain supplies for ten million people for about a year."

"When will the city's communication be restored?"

"The lowest level of network communication has been restored. To communicate more rapidly, we need more electricity."

One message after another was pooled into the government office.

The heavy pressure weighed on the hearts of each attendee.

This emergency meeting was called the "Yunhai City Survival Meeting."

In addition to the city government officials, there were military district representatives, university professors, and distinguished individuals from various industries who attended the meeting.

As a first-tier city, Yunhai City's industrial capabilities were quite commendable. Many industrial chains, including electric car factories and chip factories, existed in part.

But all these factories became paralyzed overnight.

Confusion hung on everyone's faces. Just thinking about the unknown lands of Pangu Continent, as well as keywords like "civilization screening," "Safe Zones," left people bewildered—after all, not everyone is well-versed in online novels to quickly grasp these concepts.

It was utterly bewildering.

The middle-aged man sitting on the platform was named Li Chunhong, the top leader of Yunhai City.

He gently tapped on the table and said in a serious tone, "Comrades, whether you can accept it or not, we've already arrived in a new world... Earth has truly disappeared."

"We must accept the harsh reality as soon as possible."

"The most important thing at the moment is to ensure the livelihoods of the people, to calm the public's panic, and to restore societal order."

Looking at the silent crowd, Li Chunhong paused for a moment, then added, "We don't have much electricity to offer, but we must provide it regularly every day."

"The rationing of food must be enforced properly. Only by doing this can we restore order as quickly as possible."

"The restoration of network communications is the most important thing right now, letting everyone at least go online, send text messages, and watch the latest news. Only with the smooth flow of information will the public's panic diminish."

"Crack down harshly on hoarding, vandalism, looting, arson, and other criminal activities!"

"And then there's the Pangu Continent..."

"We also need to think of a way to investigate what's happening..."

"Before the facts are ascertained, we urge the public not to vote rashly to revoke the Safe Zone!"

...

As Yunhai City entered the Pangu Continent, a mysterious "Confirm Revocation of Safe Zone" button appeared in every citizen's mind.

If the number of votes exceeds 50%, the Safe Zone will be permanently revoked and the city will officially set out towards the Pangu Continent!

The appearance of voting rights thrilled netizens.

Is this real democracy?

Not important, what's important is... happiness?!

Soon, some fun-seeking people pressed the "Confirm Departure from Safe Zone" button in their minds.

Sensationalist media began fabricating stories—though WeChat, TikTok and the like were all gone, these guys still posted their articles written on mobile phones on newly opened internet forums.

"Evidence of God's existence has appeared; those without faith will ultimately be eliminated."

The events that have occurred can indeed only be described as a "miracle"!

Thus, some trolls were extremely excited, thinking that by converting to God, they would receive God's protection.

"Bullshit, then go to another city. What are you sticking around Yunhai City for? We represent the Great Xia Civilization! Get out of here and go to another city to convert to God!"

"Brain-dead moron!"

Netizens had no patience, especially now that they had nothing to do, even short videos were gone, so they could only act like keyboard warriors.

So the two sides passionately blasted each other.

"M Country has contacted aliens without authorization, lifting a rock only to drop it on its own feet! M Country should take full responsibility for this!"

"It must be an alien conspiracy!!"

"Don't vote to leave the Safe Zone, or it means that humans will participate in a civilization elimination game; it's time to shrink the poison circle!"

"Actually, we are the protagonists of a novel! Hurry and revoke the Safe Zone!"

"When are we deploying troops to Little Day? I want to join the army and attack Little Day."

The government's newly launched forum was filled with all kinds of strange and bizarre opinions, once again confirming that "Journalism" is indeed a notoriously bad major...

The government communication department staff were also bewildered. Since the forum started, hundreds of posts flooded in every second, and they couldn't keep up with the deletions.

And why does it feel... the public reaction is a bit strange?

As if they are unaware of the seriousness of the situation?

The post about attacking Little Day has already received several thousand replies.

What's going on? It's gotten to the point where they're almost afraid to delete it!
