Chapter 790: Who The Hell Is That Guy?
Liuhe Base City.
No, more accurately, it should now be called Liuhe City. The star beasts had been brought under control ever since that global war years ago. Once Liu Diqiu’s combat puppets had entered mass production, the star beasts quickly declined from their dominant position as Earth's overlords, and humanity regained its place as the ruling force.
Nowadays, humans no longer needed to cower behind tall city walls. A regular city only required a force of combat puppets and a garrison of martial artists to ensure complete safety. Ordinary people could now venture into the wilderness for sightseeing or labor.
At last, humanity could walk beyond the towering walls and freely enjoy the beauty and bounty of nature. This shift brought about an explosive growth in material resources for humanity.
Hunger was eradicated. The plants and water sources in the wild were also purified. Fruits and vegetables that were once considered luxuries had finally become affordable for the average household.
To the southeast of Liuhe City lay a lake named Yuze. Yuze Lake had once been a forbidden zone, home to a high-grade water-type star beast known as the Toothed Horse, along with hundreds of other water-type star beasts. Even martial artists at the Acupoint Opening Realm dared not linger near its shores.
But now, the sound of children's laughter and joy echoed across the area. The elementary, middle, and high school divisions of Red Flag School were holding a joint summer camp in the wilderness.
Colorful tents had been set up on the grassy lakeshore. Under the teachers' guidance, the children were busily preparing lunch. All ingredients had been gathered from the wild, and were processed and cooked on site. The activity served to train the children’s hands-on skills.
As the birthplace of the Martial God Li Xiaofei, Liuhe City now enjoyed widespread fame, not just nationally, but globally. Countless saints and pilgrims came to visit the city, touring Li Xiaofei’s former residence and alma mater, and interviewing those who had once crossed paths with him. Hongqi School was undoubtedly a sacred stop on their pilgrimage.
To facilitate the visits and understanding of the faithful, the site of the old high school had long since been converted into a memorial hall, while the new high school was relocated and rebuilt elsewhere.
