Resurrection Empire

Chapter 635 - 239: Revealing the Truth, National Preparation for War, Soaring Starfire_2

This time, after being reborn, he unleashed his talents madly, achieved historical top scores as soon as he left home, presented the Consciousness Upload, and commanded with vigor in the Continent-Level laboratory.

He felt somewhat awkward at heart, like a male peacock showing its beautiful feathers to a female peacock, putting on a display from afar.

However, ultimately, this new expectation was worth all the effort.

Encouraged by this significant positive news, the scavengers, rather than being fearful, were filled with enthusiasm for the future.

They even thanked Ren Zhong for creating an opportunity for their rebirth.

Of course, this was also related to the overall social atmosphere of Source Star.

Beast Tides were not uncommon occurrences.

The Mengdu Group never hid the fact that they directly used scavengers for experiments.

In the life expectations of every scavenger, they were already psychologically prepared for similar events.

Therefore, even when forced into battle, as long as there was hope in life, they were fearless.

That evening, supplies from the Tanggu Group arrived with two large airships.

Under the instructions of Ren Zhong, Wang Zhaofu, Zheng Tian, and others, along with the professional teams and Starfire Resources staff, presided over the distribution of equipment.

In just two hours, the first batch of military supplies was distributed, with the over twenty thousand professional scavengers in the town almost each receiving two new pieces of equipment.

On the 98th day, in the central square of the town, experts from the Tanggu Group began lecturing in front of as many as a hundred thousand students.

This time, Ren Zhong was well-prepared.

When planning the alloy residences, he had already carried out demolition work in the area around the large square.

By this time, the houses around the large square had long been flattened, doubling the square’s area and its audience capacity.

In addition, Ren Zhong had also purchased ultra-high-definition new giant screen projectors in advance.

All these micro operations were to enable more scavengers to systematically learn knowledge here.

The 100th day, morning.

From six o’clock in the morning, wave after wave of buses, trucks, wheeled vehicles, floating motorboats, and motorcycles started pouring out of the parking lot.

There were also groups of vibrant temporary teams, ranging from three to five people, walking out of the town, starting their practice with First Level Ruined Beasts scattered around the town’s vicinity.

Last time, twenty thousand professional scavengers participated in the great hunt.

This time, the number tripled on that basis.

A total of sixty thousand scavengers surged out.

Everything was both a replay of past scenes and a new elevation.

Far away in the Chenhui Mine, Ren Zhong was also very busy, only periodically reviewing reports.

He saw it all and felt joy in his heart.

Suddenly, he thought of some people.

In his youth, he couldn’t understand why some people would tirelessly toil for things unrelated to themselves, striving to change the landscape and living environment of a place until the very last moment of their lives.

No matter how many related stories he had heard or how much praise people had for him, young Ren Zhong always felt a lingering sense of isolation deep in his heart.

Now he understood.

It turns out, the satisfaction gained from helping one person after another benefit from your efforts, and from seeing the once numb faces gradually bloom into joyful smiles of harvest, is so intense.

This satisfaction is incomparable to any amount of money.

Ren Zhong still remembered what he saw and heard when he first arrived in Starfire Town, in the slums.

Back then, the town was desolate and dilapidated.

People were like walking corpses, scantily clad and emaciated.

The scavengers did nothing but wait for night to fall after waking up every day, to go back to sleep.

Now, the people were still the same people, and the town was still the same town.

But whether the scavengers who went out hunting or the women, children, and elders waiting at home for their family’s triumphant return, all wore vibrant expressions on their faces.

No longer would a large group gather around a second-hand electronics store watching inappropriate excitement.

Even scavengers who didn’t hunt could always find something to do.

Doing odd jobs on the town’s construction site, washing clothes, and delivering food for the workers, or becoming skilled Equipment Cleaners, crafting their handiwork, or looking after elders and children for hunting scavengers who didn’t have the time, or even children gathering together to explore their talents as guided by teachers...

Despite the Beast Tide yet to recede, the town had already come alive ahead of time.

Everyone was doing everything they could within their capabilities.
