In the blink of an eye, a month had passed since the beast tide attacked.

[Star City] has returned to calm, and the areas destroyed by a small number of invasive mutant species have basically been repaired.

If in an era of peace, after experiencing such a catastrophe comparable to a natural disaster, it would definitely not be possible to calm the people's hearts in a month, but the people of this era are still very nervous in this regard, and it didn't take long to forget the impact of the beast tide.

However, a new storm is brewing in the shadows.

The first to bear the brunt was the temporary camp that had just been established near [Star City].

The temporary camp was inhabited by refugees who had fled from [Rock City], in fact, it was not only near [Star City], but also outside the nearby fortress cities.

Because they were worried that there were people affected by the yellow fog in the fleeing team of [Rock City], and they would cause even more chaos if they were put into the city at will, the major fortress cities could only come up with such a plan to delay the army, so that the refugees could temporarily live outside the city first, and the city would provide material assistance.

However, this is not a long-term solution, and if a solution is not found soon, a new chaos will break out sooner or later.

You must know that the number of refugees is not a few, and many of them are inextricably linked with the surrounding major fortress cities, and these people cannot be directly treated as enemies, otherwise the major fortress cities will not be so troublesome.

In addition, there is also a secret information that is only known to the high-level leaders of the major fortress cities, and that is that the Yellow Mist does not only appear in the 'Seventh Domain'!

Seven of the thirteen major regions have discovered the existence of the Yellow Mist, and the situation is the same as that of the 'Seventh Domain'.

The situation in these seven major regions is also surprisingly similar, and they all broke out first with a round of beast tides.

Most of the affected fortress cities have survived the beast tide as well as [Star City].

But there is also a fortress city that is more unlucky, because of various unexpected circumstances, the city was finally broken, and the people were killed and injured countless times.

In addition, there are four fortress cities like [Iwajo], which were not destroyed by the beast tide, but by civil strife!

Coupled with the unfortunate fortress city that was washed away by the beast tide, it means that there are now five fortress cities that have been taken away by a wave of direct or indirect influence by the yellow fog in the sky.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the fortress cities that were destroyed by civil strife were not as ruined as the fortress cities that were washed away by the beast tide, and most of the people still had the opportunity to flee to the vicinity.

The city of the collapsed fortress was not so lucky, and only a handful of powerful new humans and a few lucky ones survived.

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this matter is not over.

The real big trouble is yet to come.

It is very likely that there are many "people and demons" hiding in the fleeing teams, as well as some unstable elements who may knowingly sneak into the area of the yellow fog, may detonate the situation.

'Human demons' is the code name given by some insiders to those who have entered the yellow fog.

In fact, it is a simplified name for 'the devil in human skin'.

When the detailed information of [Rock City] and the other three fortress cities destroyed by civil strife came out, the outside world knew how terrifying these 'human demons' who had entered the yellow mist had become.

They have not lost their memories, nor have they been controlled, but they have simply been reminded of the deepest evil in their hearts.

For example, there is a 'human demon' who is the guard leader of a wealthy merchant in [Rock City], and no one knows that he has also entered the yellow mist.

When he returned to Rock City, he was not exposed at first, and everything was business as usual.

It wasn't until his affairs were exposed that people found out that he had killed more than a dozen people by various overt and covert means, and even his son was broken into pieces and fed to dogs by him because he wanted to stop him.

The reason he did it was simply because these people had said behind his back that he was ugly.

If he were a normal person, even if he knew that someone was chewing the root of his tongue behind his back, he would be upset at most, and if it was serious, it would be nothing more than tearing his face in front of him, but when he returned from the yellow mist, he could no longer suppress all his evil thoughts and desires, which was what happened later.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in [Iwajo] and the other three fortress cities that were destroyed by civil strife, and some are even worse.

There are those who kill the whole family because they fall in love with someone else's wife, and there are those who slaughter a big family because of some quarrels......

And so on and so forth.

In fact, this is only exposed, you know, what is not exposed is the most terrible.

The terrible thing about 'human demons' is not that they kill people, but that they are hidden, unless they are caught correctly or there is clear evidence, no one knows who is the 'human demons'.

No one dares to guarantee that the relatives and friends who scold the evil deeds of the 'human demon' with you will not be a 'human demon'.

It can be said that the greatest destructive power of 'human demons' is not their lethality, but their existence can make the trust between people disappear in an instant, and everyone is wary of each other.

This kind of situation in which everyone is in danger is the greatest harm.

Now the biggest headache for the high-level leaders of the major fortress cities is how to completely put an end to this 'human demon' disaster.

It is worth mentioning that compared to other fortress cities, the hidden storm in [Star City] is actually bigger, especially after Li Qiye and the others confirmed that there was also a yellow mist in other major regions, and there was already news that all five fortress cities had fallen.

……

Jixiang Hotel is an industry under the first chamber of commerce of [Star City] 'Jixiang Chamber of Commerce', and now it has spread throughout the entire 'Seventh Domain'.

In [Star City] alone, there are more than ten auspicious hotels.

Its head office is located in the most prosperous area in the east of the city, and it is also one of the most high-end places in [Star City], with no poor customers.

On this day, all kinds of luxurious vehicles were parked outside the main store of the Jixiang Hotel, although most of them were off-road, and they did not run all over the place like before the catastrophe, but they were eye-catching enough.

Someone with good deeds hurriedly inquired about what was going on, and then they learned that it was the 'Auspicious Chamber of Commerce' who held a drinking party here.

The invitation issued by the First Chamber of Commerce, the rest of the Chamber of Commerce in the city generally do not lose face in such a small matter.

The hotel has three basement floors.

The heads of the major chambers of commerce came to a hidden conference room one after another, while the cocktail party above was still lively, and no one knew that an unusual meeting was taking place here.

Ji Xiang had already changed into a formal suit at this time, which was completely different from the appearance he used to have when Cui Shengfu and the others were common.

Sitting on the main seat, he glanced at his watch, and said with a kind smile to the people on both sides:

"It's almost all there, right?"

"The Wang family hasn't arrived." The assistant next to him whispered back.

"Have you asked, what's going on?" Jixiang asked lightly.

"They said there was something going on, and they couldn't make it." The assistant replied.

"Tsk, this is not to give me Ji someone's face......" The smile on Jixiang's face did not change, but his tone revealed a chill.
