Driven out of my home in the apocalypse, I built a fortress in return.

Chapter 432 teaches everyone how to save themselves!

"Physics and chemistry, these are subjects we need to get started as soon as possible!" Xiao Yu made a decision in his heart.

The earliest trains were steam locomotives, which required knowledge of physics and chemistry.

Given the current level of education in Longcheng, the idea of ​​inventing a train is utterly a pipe dream!

Pulling his thoughts back, Xiao Yu's gaze once again fell upon various parts of the inner city.

Previously, the planting and breeding areas occupied more than two-thirds of the area of ​​Longcheng.

Now, however, it has shrunk to a small corner, less than one-tenth of the entire Dragon City.

"Same as before, the planting area occupies two-thirds of the area..."

Xiao Yu quickly used the power of the earth to cut the newly transported land into small squares, which were then used to create farmland. He then distributed the original farmland among the existing farmland.

"The Jerusalem artichokes are starting to proliferate again; we need to put them away in a separate place."

Jerusalem artichokes reproduce at an astonishingly fast rate, as always.

If it weren't for the fact that a large quantity of Jerusalem artichokes were sold in the City of Ruins this time...

Xiao Yu might be a little worried that these Jerusalem artichokes would wreak havoc on the entire Dragon City.

Soon, the planting and breeding areas, as well as all the workshops, were all completed.

Then, Xiao Yu moved and appeared in the outer city.

He plans to expand the forging area several times over; after all, there are now several hundred forging apprentices.

It's time to improve the environment at the Blacksmith Academy; everything needs to be upgraded.

"Wait... there's thick smoke coming from building number three, what's going on?" Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed instantly upon seeing the scene in the forging area.

"Fire! Help! Save my son! Waaah..."

At that moment, in the outer city, inside building number three, someone screamed.

"What's going on? Quick, put out the fire!"

Chenlong and the others rode on seventh-tier phoenix-tailed chickens and immediately rushed over.

Feng Chi, being the strongest and a wind-element awakener, naturally arrived first.

He kicked the wooden door open and saw everything inside.

In room 31 on the fifth floor of the No. 3 tenement building, two figures, their bodies blackened by smoke, were huddled together in a narrow corner of the bedroom, tightly embracing each other.

At first glance, they look like two Judge Baos, both jet black.

Immediately afterwards, Heima, Chenlong, and others also arrived.

The fire started to spread quickly, but the house was small, so it didn't catch fire at all.

The thick smoke had barely started to rise when it was spotted.

Therefore, the fire was completely extinguished in less than a minute.

"How did it start to burn?" Black Horse frowned as he looked around the room, fanning away the smoke and dust that rushed towards him. He asked in a deep voice, "Didn't we repeatedly emphasize the importance of safety?"

He is the Chief of Police, and all matters involving public security fall under his jurisdiction.

Right now, the city lord is busy renovating Dragon City.

There were no problems in other departments, but such a big mistake happened in his department.

"Sir, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault! It has nothing to do with my son, please don't send him away!" The two men who had been burned into buns were a mother and son, and the woman apologized repeatedly.

As she spoke, she grabbed her thirteen or fourteen-year-old son and was about to kneel down to beg for forgiveness.

Not long after arriving in Longcheng, the mother and son completely fell in love with the place.

Now, the woman works in the planting area and has food, drink, and a house to live in.

My son is still an apprentice in the forging area and has a bright future ahead of him.

This life is so good, it's wonderful.

It really was like going from hell to heaven in an instant.

"Get up, I'm not blaming you!"

Black Horse quickly stepped forward, pulled the two up, and said in a serious tone, "Remember! The City Lord said that in Dragon City, no one is allowed to kneel before anyone! I just want to find out how the fire started."

Upon hearing this, the woman paused slightly, her eyes filled with astonishment.

In the past, even if she hadn't made any mistakes, those important figures wouldn't have spoken to her so politely, let alone when she made a mistake that almost caused a fire.

In other places, beating yourself to death would be considered lenient.

Now it seems that Dragon City is indeed different! The city lord has been too good to them!

She didn't want to ruin her son's future in Longcheng because of her own mistake.

Thinking of this, the woman apologized again, quickly explaining, "Sir, I'm so sorry! I was boiling water just now, but when the earthquake happened, the stove was knocked over, and we were in the bedroom the whole time. By the time we realized it was on fire..."

"I see."

Upon hearing this, Black Horse and the others finally understood.

They've never experienced anything like this, so they wouldn't even think of these things.

"This was just an accident, don't worry about it."

Just then, a gentle voice rang out.

"Lord City Lord!" Chenlong and the others immediately saluted.

"Are you the city lord?" The mother and son had never seen the city lord before.

Upon hearing this, the mother and son stared blankly out onto the balcony.

There, a young man with black hair and dressed in black stood in mid-air.

The other person exuded a warm and sacred aura, and their smile was extremely warm and sunny.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord!"

The woman vowed in her heart that her son would repay the city lord's great kindness.

A moment later, Xiao Yu had finished replanning the forging area and commercial street.

They also rebuilt a new, larger crystal dome.

Then, he summoned all the high-ranking officials of Dragon City.

"Everyone!"

Xiao Yu scanned the room and asked in a serious tone, "What are everyone's thoughts on this fire?"

"Lord City Lord, it's all my fault!" The black horse stood up and lowered its head in shame.

"sit down!"

Xiao Yu raised his hand to smother the conversation and said in a deep voice, "This was an accident! No one is at fault! I called you here not to assign blame, but to prevent a similar situation from happening again."

He glanced at the crowd, and seeing that they didn't seem to have much awareness of this, he sighed and spoke again:

“When we were renovating Dragon City, I told you in advance that if there was any danger, you should immediately hide in your bedroom. The mother and child did nothing wrong. The fire was caused by the earthquake caused by the earth dragon tortoise shaking the house.”

"But...this was clearly just a small, accidental fire, yet the mother and child panicked and let the flames burn. If you hadn't intervened in time, they would have been burned alive!"

Now do you know where the problem lies?

Our residents severely lack the awareness and ability to save themselves!

"Then what should we do?" Black Horse's expression also turned serious.

He also felt that what the city lord said made a lot of sense.

Often, when disaster strikes, losing a life happens in the blink of an eye.

Even if the city lord is incredibly powerful, he can't save everyone.

A disaster is a disaster because it is so sudden.

It happened so suddenly that before anyone could react, countless lives were lost.

Countless separations and deaths, families torn apart and people killed.

Moreover, what if one day, an enemy suddenly breaks into Dragon City?

And the city lord happens to be away from Dragon City.

The spirit beasts were too far away to come to the rescue.

That would be the end for these residents!
