Becoming Stronger After Death: I Keep Seeking Death in the World of the Universe.

Chapter 419 Rebuilding the Bridgehead in the Wasteland
Regardless of Xu Wang's reasons.

In any case, it was a good thing that Lou Qi and Juliet were happy to see.

After this period of contact, they really wanted Xu Wang to step forward and lead them in rebuilding the wasteland.

Xu Wang is powerful enough and has high personal character.

And there aren't that many insatiable perverted desires.

Although he has some mental issues, he is sometimes as abstract and childish as a child.

But in the wasteland, this is not a problem at all.

As long as his spirit and iron fist remain, human civilization can continue to develop in a relatively positive and progressive way!
Xu Wang is the perfect guide in the wasteland.

Unfortunately, Lou Qi had already asked about it beforehand.

Xu Wang had absolutely no intention of doing so.

They couldn't change Xu Wang's choice either.

They were still struggling with this problem when Xu Wang came to them so quickly, wanting to solve the housing problem for refugees in the shantytowns outside the city.

This is undoubtedly a good start.

Lou Qi has come to terms with it now.

Xu Wang is a good person.

Since he doesn't want to take on such a big responsibility, let him be.

Perhaps, like today, taking things as they come can also lead to a good result.

Juliet immediately pulled up a map of the area surrounding Sixwood City, waved her hand, and said, "From now on, all the land around Sixwood City is yours. You can do whatever you want with it."

Xu Wang leaned closer to look at the projector on the table and said, "Let's also call the surrounding land Six Wood City. From now on, we'll divide it into an inner city and an outer city."

It's winter now, and wasteland creatures aren't very active.

Now is the time to build the city walls, further providing the wastelanders with a safe living space.

With this safe zone as a base, things will gradually get better.

Hearing Xu Wang say this, Zhu Yeli nodded in agreement.

For most law-abiding wastelanders, the dangers of the wasteland are still too great.

On the human side, there is exploitation and war among various forces, ubiquitous plunderers, mad scientists, and conspirators who are always trying to overthrow the world.

Besides humans, there are various mutated and powerful wasteland creatures, and war machines left over from before and after the war.

There are also the occasional black box disasters.

These are all threatening the lives and property of ordinary people.

Not to mention radiation and various natural disasters.

Building a safe zone for wastelanders who yearn for peace is indeed imperative.

Since both sides have decided to renovate the shantytown.

Then we need to start discussing the details.

After all, such a large project cannot be undertaken on a whim.

Soon, they received a summons.

As the chief engineer, Xiji, along with several wastelanders with architectural knowledge, also arrived at the city lord's office.

One of the wastelanders hesitated for a moment before tentatively speaking, "Boss, we are very grateful for your decision to renovate the shantytown and build houses for us!"

But the temperature is just too low right now.

Once the shantytowns are demolished, new houses will not be built in a short period of time, and many people will likely suffer from the cold.

Furthermore, winter is really not a good time for construction. What are your thoughts on this?

After saying that, the wastelander nervously swallowed.

She was afraid that her words would anger Xu Wang.

After all, this is a wasteland, and human life is the cheapest thing here.

He wanted to persuade those in power to reconsider, for the sake of the other wastelanders' lives.

In any other organization, this would be suicidal.

But Xu Wang looked at him with admiration and asked, "What's your name? Where are you from?"

The man stammered, "Zhao... Zhao Cheng, boss, I'm from Duobao Town."

Xu Wang then asked, "Are you also a resident of the shelter?"

Zhao Cheng shook his head: "No, but my parents were residents of the shelter. They left the shelter decades ago, wanting to rebuild their homes. They were later killed by raiders, and I learned my knowledge from them."

Xu Wang nodded, then looked at Xiji beside him and said, "Zhao Cheng is in charge of the construction planning of the outer city this time. You will assist him."

Xiji didn't feel neglected at all; instead, he excitedly clenched his fist and pounded his chest: "Yes, boss! I know that everyone has their own expertise!"

As he said this, what Xiji was thinking was...

As expected of Xu Wang, he has a truly magnanimous approach to personnel management!

This is the kind of great person he should follow!
Zhao Cheng, standing beside him, was also somewhat flattered, his lips trembling as he looked at Xu Wang.

Xu Wangcai didn't care about the two people's situation; he just wanted people who lived life seriously to live better lives.

Good deeds are rewarded; it's that simple and unpretentious.

Xu Wang then looked at Zhao Cheng and said, "Don't worry too much about manpower. I will provide you with Terminator robots. If you need any engineering machinery, just contact City Lord Zhu and Lou Qi."

I will cover all expenses.

Regarding the temperature issue…

Xu Wang thought for a moment.

Although he could alter the weather, stopping the snow and wind around Rokumoku City.

But he can't stay here as a human weather controller for such a long time.

Moreover, weather changes are a natural phenomenon.

Xu Wang also didn't want to make any long-term changes, lest it cause a chain reaction later.

After thinking for a moment, he added, "I will transfer my Sky City here. During the construction period, wastelanders without housing can stay in Sky City for the time being."

"Castle in the Sky?"

Zhao Cheng was puzzled, as he knew nothing about these things.

Xiji, who was aware of the situation, trembled with excitement upon hearing this.

Castle in the Sky!
That was cutting-edge technology from before the war, the core property of the Academy, the most mysterious organization in the wasteland.

In any organization, this thing would be protected at every level, kept on a high shelf, and only the most core personnel could use it.

Xu Wang, however, treated Sky City like any other abandoned building in the wasteland, opening it up to wasteland dwellers.

What a broad and loving heart this is!
After learning about the origins of Sky City, Zhao Cheng was so shocked that he trembled all over.

My inner thoughts are the same as Xiji's, and even more shocked!

Siggi used to be an engineer in the Brotherhood, so he wasn't exactly a bottom-tier wasteland dweller.

Zhao Cheng had truly lived his life in the wasteland, encountering all sorts of people.

This seemingly free wasteland is actually characterized by severe class divisions.

According to his own values, Xu Wang's behavior makes him a good person, but it doesn't warrant praise.

But in Zhao Cheng's view...

At this moment, Xu Wang seemed to be radiating golden light all over his body!

Like a living saint walking in the world!
"I will give my life to serve you faithfully, my lord!"

Zhao Cheng looked at Xu Wang with utmost respect, pounded his chest with his right fist, and bowed deeply to Xu Wang to express his reverence.

Now he didn't even call him "boss" anymore, but directly addressed Xu Wang as "Master," as if he were a sage or a great teacher.

In the pre-war Federation, anyone who could be given this title was a highly respected figure who played a vital role in driving the gears of history in human civilization.

Xiji, who was standing nearby, was startled upon hearing this.

Zhao Cheng's eyes widened instantly!

not good!

This new guy is even more loyal than I am!
How could I have forgotten the honorific title of "Master"!
Isn't this much better than having a boss?

Not to be outdone, Xiji quickly bowed to Xu Wang and said respectfully, "With the great master's leadership, we will surely end the wasteland and restore humanity's glory!"

Looking at the expressions of the two people in front of him.

Xu Wang's expression was very strange!
Something is wrong!
Something's definitely not right! Why do I feel like I'm getting closer and closer to getting a golden toilet?
Xu Wang then looked at Lou Qi and Juliet beside him.

I noticed that both of them had satisfied smiles on their faces.

As expected, they didn't need to force Xu Wang to sit on the throne.

Xu Wang's own actions.

His thoughts, his character, his strength, and his choices will all motivate the wastelanders to support him in ascending to a high position and becoming the light illuminating the wasteland.

This is an inevitable trend.

Unless Xu Wang is determined to isolate himself from the world and stop caring about worldly affairs.

But Xu Wang's personality meant that he would not stand by and watch someone die.

There is no solution to this.

Because Xu Wang himself could not resist the pleasure that comes from doing good deeds.

He's the kind of person who feels happy when he sees good people around him getting better off.

He rejected all tragedy.

Perhaps this is some kind of inevitability?

"I have a feeling that you're setting a trap to drag me down."

Xu Wang mumbled something under his breath.

Lou Qi smiled and said, "No one can force you to make any choice, right?"

Xu Wang stopped talking and steered the conversation back to the main topic: "Let's continue discussing the construction of the outer city."

"it is good!"

Zhao Cheng had bright eyes, though he was dressed in rags and was thin.

But at this moment, he was full of energy and spirit!

Following Xu Wang's side rekindled his boundless anticipation for the future!

So he put in his utmost effort to help Xu Wang build the new Sixwood City that could shelter the wastelanders!
"The pre-war facilities are still usable, such as the sewers, energy networks and water networks. We only need to build houses and maintain and repair them, which will save us a lot of time."

Zhao Cheng manipulated the projected map in front of him and began to divide the area.

He didn't want to simply build a large slum.

He wanted to carry on his parents' wishes and rebuild the wasteland.

Sixwood City is the first step in rebuilding the wasteland.

Therefore, he had to build a fully functional city that could provide for the people's needs for living, working, entertaining, and developing.

Residential areas, commercial areas, industrial areas, agricultural areas, and even military zones are all essential!
Only in this way can Rokugi City serve as a bridgehead for human revival.

Zhao Cheng and the engineers grew increasingly excited and agitated!
The plans for the future of Liumu City are becoming increasingly ambitious.

Several hours passed, and Xu Wang, who was standing to the side, looked rather unwell.

He quietly moved over to Lou Qi, who seemed a little bored, and whispered, "Isn't this a bit off? I only wanted to build a few houses for refugees to spend the winter."

At most, we would just build another wall around the city to provide them with some protection.

Why does it keep getting bigger and bigger with each design?

Lou Qi glanced over there; given her personality, she wasn't actually very interested in that kind of thing.

But looking at Xu Wang's expression, I couldn't help but laugh: "Isn't this great? Anyway, we'll still have to develop in the future. Now that we've done it all in one step, don't you want to see what this new city will look like?"
Don't you want the city you build to become a new refuge for wastelanders?

Watching them live and work in peace and contentment under your protection?

The tavern owner's tone carried a hint of flirtatious seduction.

Upon hearing this, Xu Wang actually thought about it for a moment, and finally followed his heart and nodded: "I really want to, I think it would be very fulfilling."

Lou Qi immediately laughed as well: "Right?"

At this moment, Xu Wang finally looked away from the city planning map and turned to the proprietress beside him: "Your Sanfan Tavern business has always been good, and the wasteland environment doesn't affect you. Why are you suddenly so concerned about these things?"
And you keep trying to get me to save the world, what are you thinking?

Lou Qi's expression turned serious upon hearing this: "It's not just recently. Don't forget, I'm also a resident of the shelter. Zhu Yeli and I share the same ideal: to restore humanity's glory."

Otherwise, I wouldn't have stayed here to settle down and become good friends with her.

However, our previous strength was too small to move such a large wasteland; we could only do what we could.

Now that we've met, and we're heading in the same direction, let's go together!

Xu Wang nodded after listening.

Without saying anything more, he turned to look at the busy Zhao Cheng and the others.

Everyone shares the same aspiration for a better life.

The wasteland really shouldn't continue like this.

a few days later.

The planning for the new Six Wood City has been largely completed.

Sky City, having received Xu Wang's message long ago, has arrived above Sixwood City from the Western Continent under the control of the main god AI.

Looking up at the enormous floating city that blots out the sky above.

The wastelanders around Sixwood City craned their necks, their expressions blank, as if they had witnessed a miracle.

In recent days, the reputation of Mr. Xu Wang has spread throughout the shantytown.

Many people are unfamiliar with the name Xu Wang.

They are neither from Pancake Town nor radiation hunters from Sixwood City.

All they knew was that a group of workers who were modifying trains in the subway suddenly told them something very excitedly.

Xu Wang wanted to build them a city so that they would have enough to eat and wear, and be free from the harsh cold and scorching heat.

They will return to the way humans lived two hundred years ago.

There will be city walls to protect their safety.

There will be order that will allow them to regain the dignity they deserve as human beings.

The future Rokugi City will become the first city to revive humanity!
The rumor was so appealing that no one believed it.

It's even more far-fetched than the idea that androids would replace their wives and children!

A group of malicious looters mingled among the crowd, shouting and clamoring.

The bigwigs in Sixwood City think they're an eyesore and want to demolish these shacks, turning all these wastelanders into canned meat to sell to the Brotherhood and the Raider Tribe.

This rumor, which aligned with the wastelanders' ideas, was surprisingly widely accepted.

After all, in their understanding...

This is the way the world is.

As a result, panic spread rapidly among the crowd.

The raiders also took the opportunity to gather a number of wastelanders.

The raiders claimed they would protect these wastelanders.

In reality, it was nothing more than the same old story: "plundering" as many slaves as possible.

They also didn't believe that anyone would actually build a city for useless wastelanders.

So many organizations in the wasteland are all calling for the restoration of human glory and the reconstruction of the wasteland.

In the end, didn't they all become slogans to satisfy their own desire for power?
They believe that this time will be the same.

They also planned to take advantage of the chaos to gather more manpower and see if they could storm into Sixwood City.

Let's bite off this big, juicy piece of fat!
But at this moment.

These days, the legendary Sky City, which Xu Wang promised to temporarily house the wastelanders, is the place that has been passed down through generations.

It actually arrived!

The airship broke through the thick clouds, dispersing the wind and snow.

A vast, incomparable shadow slowly enveloped most of the shantytown.

Those are mountains forged from steel!

It's a floating island!

Sunlight and snowflakes were swirled by the cyclone that caused it to fall.

This enormous airship, as big as a small city, is slowly and irresistibly sinking!

The immense wind pressure pressed down on the bodies and minds of all the wastelanders below!
For a moment, they couldn't even describe what they were feeling.
Only an overwhelming, boundless shock that swept over my entire body!
