After leaving the border, no one spoke on the way back. Their expressions were solemn.

Unable to stand the heavy atmosphere, Estelle took out a pile of food from his bag and asked loudly, “Are you guys hungry? I have yogurt and bread here.” He had bought them at the airport yesterday and saved them as today’s breakfast.

At first, no one replied. After a while, Yu Huang suddenly said, “Give me a carton of yogurt.”

Estelle looked at the yogurts in the bag and said, “I have red date-flavored yogurt and peach-flavored yogurt. What flavor do you want?”

“Peach.”

“Don’t you guys want one?” Estelle turned to look at Sheng Xiao and the others.

“Yes.” Sheng Xiao asked for a carton of peach yogurt and a sandwich. The others took some food too.

Sheng Xiao was too distracted to savor the taste of the bread.

As Yu Huang drank the yogurt, she fed Beatrice some as well.

After breakfast, Yu Huang cleaned up the trash.

After walking through the bumpiest part of the county road, Beatrice glanced at the GPS on her phone and said, “Fengcheng County is ahead. We’re about to go on the highway.” The economy of the Hodges Empire was backward, so their technology was naturally very backward as well. In the entire country, only Jingdu had a maglev train line.

There were a few high-speed rail lines in the country, but the residents had already taken refuge in a few cities near the capital. Now that the southern cities of the Hodges Empire had become empty, the high-speed rail naturally stopped operating.

Last night, Yu Huang and the others took the highway. Because it was late at night and there were few people in the south, their journey on the highway was smooth the entire way. The journey that originally took eight hours only took Beatrice six hours.

On the way back, Beatrice planned to drive straight to the highway according to the navigation route.

At this moment, they were driving on the national highway in the suburbs of Fengcheng County. The national highway was a one-way three-lane road, and only their car was driving on the straight road. Yu Huang suddenly said, “Stop the car. I want to throw some trash.”

“Okay.”

Beatrice stopped the car, and Yu Huang got out and threw the trash into the trash can.

Standing beside the trash can, she saw the rats beside the trash can and knew that no cleaner would come to clean up the city.

After returning to the car, Yu Huang changed her mind and said, “Drive the car into the city to take a look.”

Sheng Xiao and the others looked at Yu Huang silently. Then, they said, “Listen to her. Go to the county city.”

“Okay.”

Although the Hodges Empire was poor and backward, it had a large population. Fengcheng County was also a famous slum area on the Holy Spirit Continent. Most of the houses here were low, but they were densely packed together. According to official statistics, there were at least five to six people living in any low house here.

Before the Jade Illusion Continent disappeared, the streets here were crowded.

However, when Yu Huang and the others drove into the county city, they discovered that this county city, which was the poorest and most crowded city on the continent, was actually empty.

'ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ No(ve) l Bi n',

Most of the shops’ doors were closed, and inside some of the open doors, there were robbery scenes. The street was filled with trash and abandoned electric scooters, tricycles, and many low-end cars.

The abandoned cars blocked Yu Huang and the others’ path.

Beatrice stopped the car and turned off the engine. Staring at the empty and desolate city in front of her, she said, “There’s no way out.”

There was no way out of this city, and there was almost no way out of this continent anymore.

Sheng Xiao said, “Let’s get out of the car and take a look.”

“Okay.”

The seven of them got out of the car and stepped on the cement road as they walked forward cautiously in silence.

They were all wearing combat boots. The sound of their combat boots on the hard concrete was the only sound in the city.

Clang!

A trash can was pushed over.

The city was too quiet, so the sound of the trash can falling to the ground seemed infinitely magnified, immediately attracting the attention of Yu Huang and the others.

The seven of them immediately turned around warily and saw a group of hungry wild dogs rummaging through the trash can. Two to three stray cats, who were walking a little shakily, stood at the side from afar with feral gazes.

They wanted to run to the trash can and get a share, but they were afraid of the combat strength of those wild dogs.

The wild dogs flipped over a piece of moldy wheat bread. A dog whimpered and opened its mouth to eat the piece of bread. However, before its mouth could approach the bread, its neck was mercilessly bitten by the wild dogs beside it. The other wild dogs opened their mouths and bit it, quickly biting the wild dog to death.
