Waldo was also a bit conflicted, unsure of how to proceed. The matter at hand was of great importance and required careful consideration from all sides.
Helen contemplated for a mont and said, "I think, with you around and our weapons and equipnt, there's no need to fear the snow beasts. Besides, a large number of snow beasts ans a wealth of experience. " Waldo nodded in agreent.
Finally, he called for Silva and Calvert to discuss where to build the city. In the end, they chose the fourth location, the vast plains. Waldo didn't object.
Soon, he issued orders for all survivors to prepare for departure to the city-building area in the near future.
Waldo emphasized, "Because of the continuous heavy snowfall in recent days, the snow has already accumulated several ters deep, and the cold weather ans we might encounter snow beast attacks on the way. This journey could be very challenging. Everyone must be ntally prepared! Of course, I won't force anyone to go; it's entirely voluntary. Those willing to join should get ready.
Those who prefer to stay can do so. As for your future, I won't interfere!"
Quickly, this news sent shockwaves throughout the entire Dawn ship.
"What? We're preparing to build a city? Have we chosen a good location? That's fantastic! I've been so uncomfortable since we entered this ice age!"
"Yes! Our conditions on the Dawn have been tough. We've had to endure the cold every night and have been forcibly awakened by it many tis!"
"Now it's finally coming to an end! Once the city is built, we'll have a place to sleep! With any luck, the houses will be well-insulated, and we might even have heating. The hard days are over, and better days are ahead!"
"Absolutely! We should be grateful to Waldo for leading us! "
The people seed extrely pleased.
To be honest, even though they didn't have to face the threat of snow beasts or endure drifting at sea since entering the ice age, life had still been very difficult.
Because of the cold!
With the continued drop in temperatures, the future would only beco even more challenging.
"The only solution is to move into the buildings within the city!"
In these days, they were all aware that Waldo had dispatched a large number of combat robots to search for suitable locations to build the city.
Many days had passed without any news, and everyone didn't know when they could truly start building the city. On this day, finally, they received the good news that the city would soon be constructed.
Imdiately, everyone was excited and nearly jumped for joy. Of course, they also noticed the reminder Waldo issued shortly after.
"Rest assured, although the journey will be tough, for us, it's nothing to worry about!"
"What's the big deal? We'll be just fine!"
People voiced their assurance, completely disregarding the difficulties and challenges on the journey.
Seeing this, Waldo was quite pleased. At the sa ti, Silva and Calvert began arranging various matters related to relocating to the plains for building the city.
For instance, how the survivors would be divided into batches for the journey, which survivors would act as guards, stationed at the outer periter of the group to prevent snow beast attacks.
In addition, they needed to assign people to dismantle everything useful from the various warships, especially the weapons. They also needed to arrange manpower to place explosives. After everyone evacuated, they planned to destroy all major warships like the Dawn, Fla, and Invincible to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.
Many tasks had to wait until everything was properly arranged, likely the next day.
Soon, the next day arrived. In the morning, as per the tradition, Waldo drew lots.
"Congratulations, you've won a silver chest. Would you like to open it?"
"Open!"
"Congratulations, you've obtained unlimited ice skates!"
Silence.
This item seed a bit useless!
"Next!"
"Congratulations, you've won a silver chest. Would you like to open it?"
"Open!"
"Congratulations, you've obtained unlimited snow boots!"
"Well, snow boots are useful, especially in this icy environnt."
"Next!"
"Congratulations, you've won a gold chest. Would you like to open it?"
"Open!"
"Congratulations, you've obtained an unlimited snowmobile!"
Suddenly, Waldo was stunned. He looked at the unlimited snowmobile, stayed in a daze for a while, and couldn't react.
When he finally grasped what had just happened, a trendous wave of joy instantly surged through his entire being!
"This is fantastic! I was worried about how to relocate everyone to the city building site before. After all, with such heavy snow, relying on two legs alone is too slow. Moreover, it's freezing, and the journey is full of danger, with no knowledge of how long it would take! The appearance of the snowmobile has perfectly solved this problem, relieving my urgent concerns!"
At this mont, Waldo's mood was exceptionally good.
Following this, he dispatched another group of combat robots to scout ahead, eliminating so hidden dangers.
The next day, Waldo gathered everyone to prepare for the relocation.
"Is everyone here? Good. We are about to leave the Dawn and head to the city building site. Everyone must follow orders. Don't bla for being tough if you don't!"
After leaving the Dawn, the temperature will drop further, and the journey will be perilous. Hence, companions must help and support each other. Understand?"
Waldo stood on a high tower of the Dawn and shouted loudly to the thousands of people on the Dawn.
"Understood!"
The survivors responded in unison.
The voices were loud, echoing across the vast snowy plains.
Subsequently, Silva and Calvert took the stage and explained so specific matters and points to be mindful of during the journey.
Waldo finished delegating the tasks and then took out a large number of snow boots and snowmobiles, handing them over to the two. He instructed them to distribute them.
Both of them were montarily stunned.
Then their faces lit up with joy.
"It's a snowmobile! And snow boots!"
"This is great! With the snow boots, our feet won't be cold. The snowmobile can easily traverse the snow-covered roads, and we can reach our destination the fastest!"
Afterward, they looked at Waldo.
Both the snowmobiles and snow boots were provided by Waldo.
When did Waldo acquire these?
However, they didn't dwell on it too much because they knew Waldo had many secrets.
Subsequently, the two arranged for people to distribute the snowmobiles.
The survivors were surprised when they saw the snowmobiles.
"This is a snowmobile? And snow boots? Fantastic! Our journey will be much easier with these!"
"By the way, Waldo provided these, right? I knew it! Waldo is amazing!"
"So folks on the chat channel were talking about how so arks were migrating to the city building site but struggled due to the deep snow. They couldn't make much progress in a day and so even froze to death. Moreover, they were attacked by snow beasts, resulting in heavy casualties!"
"I saw that news too, it's horrifying just to think about it!"
"Thank goodness we have Waldo, along with the snow boots and snowmobiles. We can reach our destination at the fastest speed!"
At this mont, everyone was extrely excited.
Because, in recent days, they had seen nurous ssages about the migration of survivor groups.
However, these groups encountered various problems to so extent. The most significant issue was the excessive snow accumulation—ranging from one to three ters, making it challenging to progress.
Despite their physical fitness far surpassing that of the average person, they could only travel around twenty to thirty kiloters in a day. Consequently, many lower-level survivors or those with injuries froze to death.
Moreover, if they unfortunately encountered snow beasts and were attacked during the journey, the casualties would be even more devastating. Now, they had the snowmobiles, and many of these problems could be avoided.
Soon, everything was ready. Waldo asked Calvert, "Are the explosives in place?"
Calvert nodded. "Waldo, rest assured. We've placed them. We just need to wait for the main force to move further, then we can detonate the explosives."
After saying this, Calvert looked at the Dawn and other warships sowhat nostalgically. "It's a pity that these warships that accompanied us in battling the sea will soon be reduced to ashes."
Waldo nodded, also feeling a sense of regret. However, rather than letting this place beco a breeding ground for snow beasts in the future, it was better to destroy it directly.
Subsequently, with a command from Waldo, thousands of survivor groups finally set off.
"Vroom vroom!"
"Vroom vroom!"
"Vroom vroom!"
The snowmobiles roared, and the massive convoy of thousands of people moved in a certain direction. In the rear, a massive explosion suddenly rang out. They witnessed the Dawn, their longti haven, and other warships suddenly exploding, creating a massive blaze.
"The Dawn is gone!" soone exclaid regretfully.
Waldo led the crowd, swiftly advancing across the snowy plains.
Due to the presence of snowmobiles, they moved almost effortlessly, making good speed as if on even ground. Along the way, they encountered snow beasts several tis.
The snowmobiles made a loud noise, especially with thousands of them advancing simultaneously, making their presence audible for tens of miles around. It was unavoidable for nearby active snow beasts to detect them.
However, before these snow beasts could reveal their ferocity, Waldo easily killed them with his blazing long spear. These extrely fierce and powerful snow beasts were no different from larger ants in front of Waldo.
Besides, the group didn't encounter any significant challenges. After a day of progress, finally, on the second day around 10 AM, they arrived at the plain the robots had discovered.
"This is it!"
Waldo, driving at the forefront of the convoy, was the first to stop. He looked at the vast expanse of snow and nodded in satisfaction.
"This place feels good. We can build a city here, transportation is convenient, and if we need to expand the city in the future, it will be very convenient!"
Later, Waldo flew directly into the sky, selected a suitable area, and took out the city-building order.
