Chapter 462: Preparation
Mu Xichen looked at the others in the meeting room and added, "Even if families get separated, they will still have a chance to reunite as long as they follow the designated routes."
"Although there will be three evacuation routes, when the first wave of plate collisions slows down, we will send out a signal and gather at the final destination."
As he finished speaking, another heavy silence settled over the meeting room.
After a while, Shi Xuan said, "Since Brother Mu has already prepared the evacuation route, our next step is to prepare for transportation."
He then turned to Jia Xiang and asked, "A Xiang, how much supply do we have right now?"
Jia Xiang flipped through the document in front of her and replied, "We have more than enough supplies to sustain everyone for at least a year. However, if we leave this air raid shelter, we won’t be able to produce our own food."
"Following the evacuation plan, each person will be given a supply pack to last for two months. After that, their survival will depend entirely on themselves." @@novelbin@@
Hearing this, Shi Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "Based on what you said, we have a maximum of two months to gather at the final destination."
Jia Xiang nodded. "Yes."
After confirming Jia Xiang’s statement, Shi Xuan fell into deep thought.
Seeing this, Xu Ruihan said, "Since Brother Shi agrees with our evacuation plan, I will try to secure more transportation for air and land travel."
Shi Xuan raised his eyes to look at him and nodded, "Then we will leave the transportation arrangements to you. As for the supplies, we will handle that."
Hearing this, Xu Ruihan said, "Alright. Let’s end the meeting here."
"Good."
After Xu Ruihan, Mu Xichen, and their men left, Shi Xuan turned to Li Tianyu and asked, "Captain Li, how is the preparation of the metal containers going?"
Li Tianyu replied, "We have already filled more than twenty metal containers with seeds, books, fertilized eggs, weapons, medical equipment, factory equipment, and other inventions and research data we can get our hands on. We also plan to attach them to the submarines tomorrow."

Hearing this, Shi Xuan clenched his hands, lowered his eyes, and said, "We have done everything we can. If none of us survive this disaster, I hope these supplies will be left for future generations so they can rebuild the world."
Noticing his low mood, Jia Xiang reached out and patted Shi Xuan’s back. She smiled and comforted him, "Don’t worry too much. We still have time. Once Captain and Yao Ran return, we can begin the evacuation."
"You are right." Shi Xuan smiled. After a moment of silence, he stood up and said, "Let’s go. We still have a lot to prepare."
With that, they left the meeting room and got to work.
Two days later, in Yucheng City, Fu Zongshang’s assistant knocked on his office door.
"Come in." He spoke without looking away from the document he was working on.
Getting his permission, the assistant pushed the door. As he stepped into the office, he reported, "Commander Fu, the investigation report on the scientist Ouyang Jiantao has arrived."
Hearing this, Fu Zongshang looked up from the documents he was reading and said, "Give it to me."
The assistant placed the investigation report in front of him and added, "Captain Jiang discovered that while investigating Ouyang Jiantao, he found that two days ago, Gao Shuwei underwent a secret surgery. However, the specifics of the procedure are still unknown."
Upon hearing this, Fu Zongshang looked up from the report and asked, "Jiang Chen is still in Fengcheng City?"
The assistant nodded. "Yes. Captain Jiang is currently working with Captain Peng to uncover what kind of surgery Gao Shuwei had."
Hearing this, Fu Zongshang fell into deep thought before continuing to read the investigation report. Once he finished, his expression darkened.
Closing the report, he muttered, "This Ouyang Jiantao is a specialist in DNA studies. If he is the chief scientist of Project Zero, then Project Zero must be related to DNA."
After a moment of contemplation, Fu Zongshang ordered, "Contact Jiang Chen later and have him focus his investigation on Project Zero. If my guess is correct, the surgery Gao Shuwei underwent must be connected to Project Zero."
The assistant jotted down the command in a small notebook and replied, "Understood."
After that, Fu Zongshang thought for a moment before asking, "Have the geologists determined which tectonic plates will collide?"
The assistant’s expression flickered at the question.
After a brief hesitation, he replied, "The geologists haven’t found a definite answer, but they are certain that the tectonic plates shouldn’t collide with each other for at least the next two hundred years."
"Then why are those in Shoudu City rushing to secure submarines and evacuating inland?" Fu Zongshang asked as he fell into deep thought.
In response to his question, the assistant opened a file on his tablet and placed it in front of Fu Zongshang. Seeing this, Fu Zongshang took the tablet and began reading the document.
While he was focused on the contents, the assistant explained, "Our spies reported that two months ago, the National Space Institute discovered a giant asteroid approaching our planet."
"It is estimated to strike the Western Hemisphere in three months since it was discovered, triggering a megatsunami and mega earthquake around the world. The mega earthquake’s magnitude is expected to exceed 15."
The moment these words fell, Fu Zongshang’s heart sank. Putting down the tablet, he looked at his assistant and asked, "Is there any chance our planet can survive this disaster?"
The assistant shook his head and replied in a low voice, "The probability is only ten percent."
After he said that, silence filled the room.
A few minutes later, Fu Zongshang finally spoke. "Make a public announcement about this and inform everyone. Instruct the relevant divisions to begin preparations and plan the evacuation routes."
"Yes, Commander." The assistant accepted the order, retrieved his tablet, and left the office.
