The Good for Nothing Seventh Young Lady
Chapter 2714: The City That Never Falls (3)

Before the war, the underground tunnels between the cities in the Barren Land were indeed still open, but right after the war started, the tunnels from The Rising Sun City to the other cities were completely sealed by Shen Yanxiao.

She did this in order to prevent accidents. If The Rising Sun City failed to stand, people in the other cities would still have time to prepare to flee.

Shen Yanxiao's approach was not hidden from others, and the Qilin Clan naturally knew it.

Grandpa Qi, as an old fox, had long calculated the difficulties that The Rising Sun City might encounter, so before the war, he secretly gathered a group of people. These people were basically unarmed teenagers that didn’t have any fighting capacity. He captured ground beetle beasts for each of them. Ground beetle beasts were only low-level magical beasts, about the size of a vole. This kind of magical beast was of no use at all in the battlefield, but it had a special role in logistic support.

The ground beetle beast was good at drilling holes in the ground. They were very small and could open up a small passage under them that was large enough to accommodate them.

Before the war, the Qilin Clan had kept these ground beetle beasts in Qilin City, while their owners were lurking in The Rising Sun City.

After a month of fighting, the Qilin Clan estimated that the food in The Rising Sun City would not last long. Therefore, the ground beetle beasts were mobilized. They marched toward The Rising Sun City from all directions and brought the storage rings filled with food to their owners from under the ground.

Now, the ground around The Rising Sun City was filled with small holes the size of a palm. The ground beetle beasts moved forward from these holes and quietly sent food and potions to The Rising Sun City.

As soon as the war began, the Qilin Clan contacted the people who had taken refuge in several other main cities and launched all efforts to make food and potions for the combatants.

Because the real Pharmacists in the Barren Land had all stayed in The Rising Sun City, and most of the Pharmacists left in other cities were just apprentices, the purity of the potions they made was not high and their success rate was also very low. However, they had been preparing these things secretly with the help of several great clans for a long time. Although they could not produce master-level potions and above, ordinary potions were already life-saving at a time when there was a shortage.

In addition to the little girl in front of Shen Yanxiao, there were nearly 10,000 teenagers who had signed a contract with ground beetle beasts in The Rising Sun City. At this moment, they were in all parts of The Rising Sun City, waiting for their magical beast to deliver the supplies as quickly as possible.

With regards to the practices of the five clan heads, Shen Yanxiao sighed with emotion. She thought she had already prepared everything needed for the war, but unexpectedly, old ginger was still spicier. The heads of the five great clans had much more experience than her, and they were also very thorough in doing things.

With this batch of supplies, the dilemma of The Rising Sun City was finally alleviated.

The role of the storage rings in war transportation had been brought into full play. Even though the ground beetle beasts were small, their whole bodies were bound with storage rings. Nearly 10,000 ground beetle beasts had brought enough goods to enable The Rising Sun City to weather the difficulties.

"Thank you." Shen Yanxiao looked at the little girl in front of her with gratitude. The child looked only seven or eight years old. Other children of this age had been sent to safe areas long before the war. However, in order to provide the last defense for The Rising Sun City, they had chosen to stay in here and built a bridge of life between The Rising Sun City and several other main cities.

The praised little girl couldn't help but blush. She looked shyly at Shen Yanxiao and shook her head gently.
