Chapter 472 Preparing to Return Home!
158 days after birth.
"Ow~!"
At Cangnian's command, the entire Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom sprang into action.
It took less than three days for the main force of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom to return from Guju Island to Seoul, South Korea.
Upon his return, Cangnian immediately issued an order!
All hands on deck, let's return to the Dragon Kingdom!
The moment this order was issued, the entire Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom was excited.
It's been two months since I left China.
Before the spiritual energy revival, two months was just enough time to take a long trip.
But now, they have to walk everywhere. In order to survive, they migrated from the Dragon Kingdom, measuring thousands of kilometers of land. After going through all kinds of hardships, they are finally going to return home!
How could this not be exciting?
However, Cangnian knew that there were still many necessary preparations to be made before migrating back to the Dragon Kingdom.
Cang Nian tested the ice around Seoul briefly. With his current size, walking on it was no problem, and even jumping around wouldn't cause it to collapse.
Even the fattest tiger brother is the same.
In addition, even a terrifyingly large snake like the black king cobra can move freely on the ice.
According to Qin Changyi's drilling and testing in different areas, the ice surface here has frozen to an average thickness of two and a half meters!
Cang Nian felt that this was not an exaggeration.
After all, South Korea is about 500 kilometers north of Bijuju Island.
The closer you get to the north, the colder it gets.
Therefore, the temperature in South Korea reaches an astonishing minus forty degrees Celsius, even during the day!
Such extreme cold temperatures are extremely rare, even in the snowy mountains of Northeast China.
It's already minus forty degrees Celsius during the day, and it will only get lower at night, down to minus fifty degrees Celsius, where even the air freezes.
Such extreme and harsh weather would likely have frozen many people to death before the revival of spiritual energy.
Fortunately, the members of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom were at least at the second tier.
During the time that Cangnian led his team to the Sakura Country to seize evolutionary resources, third-tier evolvers sprang up like mushrooms after rain.
In addition to sending back several shipments of blood essence that the elite troops didn't need, the number of third-tier evolved beings in the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom has now exceeded 2,500!
Moreover, because the scriptures obtained from Chanlan Temple can greatly increase the speed at which evolved individuals naturally absorb external spiritual energy and refine it into their own spiritual power, the number of evolved individuals who evolve to the third tier will only increase like a snowball every day.
However, for the time being, the majority of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom are still at the second level.
Walking on ice is much more difficult than walking on snow.
Even the closest point between South Korea and China is nearly 400 kilometers.
Therefore, staying at sea for at least two days during this migration is already the fastest possible time.
As for why the little sable wasn't allowed to use the portal to move forward...
The little sable's spatial portal is both large and small.
With a diameter of 25 meters, allowing two million people to pass through, how long would it take to maintain that capacity? Cang Nian dares not even imagine.
In any case, after some calculations, it was found that the little sable could only open a spatial portal ten kilometers at a time, making long-distance migration a completely thankless task.
You might end up spending all that time and effort only to find that it's actually slower than just walking.
Before setting off, the main force must prepare sufficient food, fresh water, heating, and equip the supply transport vehicles with tracks suitable for snow driving.
These things cannot be accomplished in a short period of time.
However, preparing for these needs is only a matter of time.
Regarding food, while Cangnian led his team to hunt in the Sakura Kingdom, the main force of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom was also hunting steadily in the waters surrounding the South Korean Kingdom.
The prey hunted each day was much more than the amount needed to eat that day.
Therefore, the excess food was pickled, smoked, and dried, and then stored away.
Recently, temperatures have plummeted and the sea has frozen over. The elite troops of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom have been working to break through the ice to hunt.
Because the sea surface is frozen, the oxygen content under the ice decreases, so evolved organisms under the ice often actively break through the ice to breathe air with higher oxygen content.
These artificially created "ventilation holes" naturally attracted many evolving organisms.
Therefore, ice hunting has been much easier than before, although it takes some effort to clear the ice.
But compared to fishing one fish at a time, having a "ventilation hole" open allows large numbers of evolved creatures to jump out, which is much more comfortable.
However, as the ice becomes thicker, it becomes extremely difficult for the seabed to exert force, and fewer and fewer evolved creatures are able to break through the ice on their own, making it increasingly difficult for the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom to hunt here.
Clearly, this place is no longer suitable for the survival of those marine creatures, so they have migrated south.
Fortunately, the daily hunts accumulated a sufficient amount of food, enough to support the entire Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom for more than a month.
Freshwater is even simpler. Just cut ice blocks from freshwater lakes in South Korea, transport them, and melt and boil the ice when you want to drink it.
As for heating, the vast expanse of ice certainly doesn't provide the same easy access to firewood as migration on land.
However, some of these problems can be solved by fire-type evolved creatures like Tiger Dad, as well as fire-type evolved beings.
In addition, carrying firewood would take up too much transport capacity, so the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom chose to carry refined bio-oil instead.
The oils of evolved organisms are foods with extremely high energy density, and also fuels with extremely high calorific value.
Small in size and light in weight, yet providing a large amount of heat, it can perfectly meet heating needs while saving on transportation capacity.
The only time-consuming issue is the problem of the tracks on the vehicles as they travel on the ice.
Ordinary tires will basically just skid on the spot when driving on ice.
Without the corresponding modifications, it can only be pulled by manpower alone.
But it can be dragged by manpower...
The speed of the procession will be much slower, and the entire migration process will take several times longer.
This is a very dangerous thing!
Therefore, it's always better to sharpen your axe before chopping wood. Make ample preparations, and then return to China in two or three days. This is the best plan!
Fortunately, there are many talented people in the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom. Vehicle modification is commonplace for Northeasterners, and a large number of them can get their hands dirty and put it into practice.
As for the survivors from Kuju Island led by Kato Kengo, they did not come to Seoul with Cangnian.
They simply stayed in the southeastern corner of South Korea and settled there.
According to Kengo Kato, they were just using a small area to survive, trying their best not to disturb the owner of the place.
……
165 days after birth.
"Ow~!"
With a loud roar from Cangnian, the entire Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom embarked on its journey home after a full week of preparation.
