After nearly half a month of long-distance travel, the last migration of one million people finally reached the Ninth District.
Looking at the massive war fortress and the skyscrapers rising from the ground, with numerous construction machines roaring between them, occasionally spotting large material transport airships, their huge silhouettes like deep-sea whales gliding past.
Everyone felt as if they were in a dream, unable to shake off an incredibly surreal feeling.
The Thirteenth District had turned into ruins; after half a month of wilderness trekking, people had imagined the appearance of the Ninth District countless times.
However, it was far more shocking than imagined!
It was as if they had instantly leapt from the barbaric era into an ultra-modern era, the stark contrast leaving them speechless for a long time.
Even Su Qi and Xia Shengxuan, who had left the Ninth District less than three months ago, found it hard to recognize any familiar traces.
"Gone for a trip and can't even recognize home after coming back, hehe," Xia Shengxuan remarked with deep emotion.
"Human creativity is indeed boundless. If given a sufficiently stable environment, perhaps building a new world wouldn't be difficult." At this moment, Su Qi felt something budding in his heart.
The Shen Chan sisters couldn't help but remember their first impressions when they first stepped into the Holy City as they witnessed the prosperity.
Vaguely, one could sense the nascent shape of a super city on the rise.
Soon.
The vast sea of people, along with a massive beast on Disaster level, caught the attention of the city's Security Bureau.
"Report!"
"The last batch of migrants has arrived!"
"And there's a... very large fierce beast!"
In fact, to prevent this beast on Disaster level from affecting ordinary citizens, Su Qi had already filed a prior report and instructed Xiaoyan to control the beast, shrinking its size.
Despite this, it still caused quite a stir.
Soon after.
Lin Nan led a large group of reception workers out.
The first round involved medical quarantine personnel setting up stations to arrange simple health check-ups for everyone.
Ordinary people are different from Transcendents; walking in the wilderness for long periods makes them susceptible to various pathogens.
Moreover, during previous migrations, there were numerous similar incidents.
Therefore, for the sake of the citizens in the city and their health, this step was indeed necessary.
Many of these medical quarantine personnel were temporarily trained from the last group of migrants, and seeing familiar faces greatly eased the minds of many just out of the wilderness.
During the check-ups,
some familiar people eagerly inquired about the state of the Ninth District.
Upon receiving affirmative responses, they were suddenly moved to tears.
After their health was checked, the citizens were led one by one by the Ninth District's Security Bureau for registration.
Apart from ease of management,
more importantly, after registration, they would sign some contracts and begin arranging their new residences.
That's right.
Though the Ninth District had arranged accommodation for everyone, these residences were not gifted to them unconditionally.
After all, building these high-rises required a vast amount of manpower and resources.
Of course, the price was extremely low, just enough to recover the cost.
Regarding this,
there wasn't any objection; instead, it was psychologically easier to accept.
This way, there was less of a feeling of living under someone else's roof.
As the resettlement process proceeded energetically, Lin Nan brought Chen Zhen and other high-ranking members from the City Lord's Mansion to Su Qi. Their eyes were almost glued to the beast on Disaster level.
"A destruction-level power enough to guard a city alone."
"It's unexpected for it to arrive in the Ninth District in such a manner."
"Good!"
"Very good indeed!"
Their eyes burned with intensity, much like wolves hungry to see a beauty after centuries.
After all.
Cities can be easily built.
The key is whether they can be defended.
Having this power stationed here gave everyone unprecedented confidence.
Of course.
The most important thing was Su Qi.
Because he was the one who subdued this power!
Apart from its terrifying potential, the changes in the Ninth District were closely related to it.
This was still a young lad who hadn't fully awakened for a year.
The surprises he brought were indescribable.
"Welcome home."
After giving Su Qi a deep glance, Lin Nan extended his hand to Shen Chan: "And welcome to City Lord Shen's participation. I hope we can work together to build a city here that will never fall!"
Shen Chan also extended her hand, genuinely saying, "Thank you for not abandoning us. On behalf of the citizens of the Thirteenth District, I express our gratitude to you!"
Thus.
The merger of the two major districts was officially announced.
After some pleasantries, Su Qi took Xiaoyan, maneuvering the beast's corpse to soar into the air, directly heading to the cleanup company.
There, Wang Zhen had already set up a place to house this beast.
Lin Nan, along with Chen Zhen and others, also excitedly climbed onto the beast's shoulder; the opportunity to experience destruction-level power this close was too rare, especially with a beast on Disaster level that instills fear.
Under Xiaoyan's control, the beast moved at high speed.
In an instant, it reached the spot Su Qi pointed out, without drawing the attention of ordinary people.
With the strength of a beast on Disaster level, it managed to silently cross the city. Even most of the Ninth District's Transcendents did not sense it.
Only a few top Apostle-level Transcendents could subtly detect a momentary suffocation.
Behind the cleanup company.
Wang Zhen had excavated a vast underground base beneath a lake, large enough to accommodate the beast on Disaster level.
After settling everything here,
the next step was to welcome Su Qi and the others with a banquet.
One has to say, Lin Nan's arrangements were impeccable.
Su Qi could see how he poured his heart into creating a homely atmosphere for Shen Chan and others from the Thirteenth District.
Aiming to truly integrate their hearts into the Ninth District.
During this period, the appearance of Principal Pei was naturally indispensable.
As a true legendary figure of the Ninth District, not only Shen Chan and her peers but also major forces from other districts were all familiar with his reputation.
After all.
Behind Pei Jing stands the Holy Sanctuary Family, who rule over a domain!
Though he hasn't reached the destruction level, everyone must offer the highest respect.
Even though rumors say Pei Jing had a fallout with his family, who knows when he might summon a group of destruction-level powerhouses.
In short.
During this welcoming banquet, hosts and guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
In the exchange of drinks, everyone was filled with anticipation for the days to come.
"This region will likely undergo unprecedented change because of the Ninth District."
Among them.
Su Qi tried his best to lower his profile.
He hadn't forgotten that the people from the Supreme Court were still around, and he still couldn't figure out their intentions.
