Global Freeze: I built a doomsday safe house

After the meeting, Zhang Yi began to discuss with Yang Xinxin, Uncle You, and others.

Everyone gathered in the villa's living room, where warm lights shone on everyone's faces, and the indoor temperature and humidity were just right.

"The meeting with them is over. After the six major districts are shrouded in a narrow circle, they will protect Tianhai City. Even if a crisis occurs in the future, they will become our buffer zone."

"Now, it's time to talk about how we should conduct ourselves in the future."

Zhang Yi shrugged. He never hid the content of his meetings from those around him; he also needed to gather ideas and listen to everyone's opinions.

Sometimes they just chat idly, after all, life is always boring.

"Tell us your thoughts!"

Uncle You sat to the side, his expression still calm and composed, giving people a sense of unwavering resolve.

“Zhang Yi, your arrangement of the six major regions is wise. The six major regions can effectively isolate external pressure as a buffer zone.”

His words were brief, but every word carried weight.

Fatty Xu muttered something, but there was a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

"But, Lord, if war were to break out one day, wouldn't we be sitting on a volcano? That would be really unpleasant."

As he spoke, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, clearly a little nervous.

"We're surrounded by alien races! Should we run away? I think the Uluan Empire's headquarters is pretty good."

Li Yangyang smiled gently and patted Xu Pangzi's back.

"Don't worry, Chunlei, the boss's judgment has always been accurate. As a core city, Tianhai City's defenses across its six districts are strong enough."

"And you have to trust the boss's abilities; he won't let Tianhai City fall into crisis."

Her tone was gentle, yet unwavering in its firmness.

Her eyes revealed her trust in Zhang Yi; no matter how the outside world changed, she always believed that he could solve everything.

Lu Keran blinked and said excitedly like a sunny girl.

"This is a big deal! After the integration of the six regions, we will definitely be able to use technology to enhance our national strength and strive to be at the forefront of the world in all fields!"

Her eyes gleamed with intelligence, clearly indicating that she had already begun planning how to leverage technological breakthroughs.

Deng Shentong then elegantly picked up his teacup, smiled, and spoke softly.

"Indeed, every decision Zhang Yi made was based on long-term planning. Even short-term difficulties will not affect the final victory."

His eyes held an aristocratic composure and elegance, as if he were seeing a grand future.

Zhou Ke'er sat next to Zhang Yi, looking at him with tender and affectionate eyes, a gaze filled with trust and pride for her man.

Zhang Yi smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over everyone, and said softly, "As you all can see clearly, we will face an even more complex situation ahead. Our goal is to ensure that Huaxu Kingdom stands firm among all races, no matter how difficult the road ahead may be!"

His words were like a powerful force, giving everyone confidence.

"However, the overall strength of the Huaxu Kingdom at present is only equivalent to that of an ordinary ancient civilization. But it is surrounded by powerful enemies—"

Zhang Yi frowned deeply, tapping his fingers lightly on the coffee table, the pressure surging within him unable to dissipate for a moment.

Looking at the world across six generations, the performance of the Huaxu Kingdom has been extremely impressive.

Other nations were either completely wiped out or chose to coexist with other races.

For example, Bharata and Gorenvia both cooperated with other races, which, to put it bluntly, made it difficult for them to maintain their own sovereignty.

The Huaxu Kingdom is far stronger than them.

But Zhang Yi has always been an insecure person, and he doesn't like this unstable environment.

In particular, the Black Dragon and the White Dragon Prince warned him that because he had shown Ling's human form and that the Dragon Clan had a sworn enemy, a new war would break out in the Huaxu Kingdom sooner or later.

"We must improve our strength in the shortest possible time! At the very least, we must maximize our defensive capabilities."

"We're not talking about attacking others, but when surrounded by powerful enemies, we need to have the ability to protect ourselves, right?"

Zhang Yi crossed his hands, rested his chin on them, and sighed softly.

Tianhai City is now the core of Huaxu Kingdom, with six major districts forming a defensive line around it, but as time goes by, he feels increasingly uneasy.

The external situation is complex and volatile, especially since the powerful forces of those ancient civilizations have firmly controlled Earth's energy and mineral resources.

Hearing Zhang Yi's sigh, everyone frowned, but no good suggestions came up for the time being.

If it were the Fang Wolf Clan or the exterminated Zhu Rong Clan who heard Zhang Yi's words, they would most likely be so angry that they would jump up and curse.

Zhang Yi, aren't you satisfied yet? Do you even realize how strong you already are?

You wiped out the Zhurong clan in a single day, and two knight-level powerhouses from the Fang Wolf clan severely injured you.

Now, following the Conference of All Races, many third-rate ancient civilizations are extremely wary of the Huaxu Kingdom.

And now, you've turned around and think we're a threat?

Zhang Yi's mentality is very strange; he seems to regard other ancient civilizations as dogs.

He felt that even if I killed the dog after being bitten by it, it would still be a huge loss for me.

This person is an extreme perfectionist—especially when it comes to security.

"However, it's difficult for us to achieve a significant increase in strength in the short term right now!"

Baili Changqing scratched his head honestly and simple-mindedly.

"Unless we can destroy one or two more powerful ancient civilizations and plunder all their resources. But that's clearly not suitable for the current situation. After all, we just finished negotiations with all the races, and it wouldn't be good to start another conflict!"

Zhang Yi nodded: "Indeed, we have covered a long period of time in five years, which is similar to the long history of many ancient civilizations. It is unlikely that there will be an explosive improvement in the number of superhumans in the short term. Putting that aside, are there any other ways to improve our overall strength?"

At this point, Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly flashed with a brilliant light, as if his Ren and Du meridians had been opened.

Zhang Yi suddenly realized that what he really needed to rapidly improve the strength of his civilization was not simply power, but technology and resources!

Only in that way can we break free from the control of these ancient civilizations and regain control of our future.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yi unhesitatingly retrieved Ling's human form from the alternate dimension and asked her:

"Ling, did the Yihen tribe leave behind any other legacies? Such as advanced technology or the like?"

Ling stood quietly to the side, her silvery-white holy radiance making her look like an unapproachable goddess.

She opened her eyes and noticed the expectation in Zhang Yi's eyes.

But her voice was like a cold wind, calm yet powerful.

"Before the Ephemeral race decided to ascend to the Aether, they had already destroyed everything, leaving nothing behind."

She paused, her gaze becoming profound. "Ascension to the Aether means they abandoned everything, even their technology."
