Chapter 1224
1224 The Woman in White’s choice
you must be on high alert. Be careful of a sudden attack from the citizen society. Next, we will slowly retreat to the entrance of the monster City. Once the time is up, we will immediately rush in!
Morris explained his plan to everyone. At the same time, he took a deep breath, and his gaze became more and more determined.
His operation this time could be said to be cutting off all cauldrons and sinking all boats. If he failed, he would very likely lose the lives of himself and his companions!
This was only because he was forced by the situation, because he had no other choice but to take the risk!
Uncle Jim and the others nodded at the same time. They didn’t say much, but they showed their support with their actions.
When his line of sight unintentionally landed on Tang Zhen, the corner of Morris “mouth revealed a bitter smile. He then turned to the citizen leader and loudly said, I’ll retreat to the monster City. I’ll let him go after I’m sure it’s safe!
The citizen leader was furious and pointed at Morris, ” “Don’t push your luck. Do you really think I won’t kill you?”
Hearing this, Morris smiled bitterly and said in a faint voice, ” “Of course I know you dare to kill me. After all, in the eyes of you citizens, what’s the difference between us and rats?
But it was also because of this that I chose to do this, so as not to cause my companions to lose their lives!
Don’t worry, even if you give me more courage, I won’t dare to kill a citizen unless I’m at my wit’s end!”
Looking at the flustered and exasperated citizen leader, Morris’s tone was extremely firm, ” “I have no other choice. Other than letting us go, you have another choice, and that is to kill me and your companions!
It’s up to you what you should do!”
Hearing this, the citizen leader clenched his fists tightly in anger, and looked at Morris with a gaze that could almost kill.
He wanted to use his psychic power to attack Morris, but he could not guarantee that he would kill him instantly. In this short moment, Morris could pull the trigger on reflex and shoot the hostage citizen to death!
The citizen also realized that the situation was not good and quickly shouted for help, his tone full of pleading.
The citizen leader hesitated a few times, but he did not dare to order the armed robots to open fire. In the end, he could only sigh and prepare to do as Morris asked.
To be manipulated by an abandoned person whom he regarded as trash was definitely a great humiliation to the citizen leader. At this moment, he had already begun to secretly swear in his heart that he would definitely find an opportunity to torture Morris and the rest to death!
However, at this moment, a cold voice suddenly rang out. Then, The Woman in White named little Xi stepped out of the crowd and slowly walked to Morris and the others.
“I’m here to take his place as a hostage. You can let him go now!”
The woman named Xi said as she looked at Morris coldly.
“Xi, don’t mess around, come back here!”
The citizen leader’s expression changed as he shouted at the White-clothed woman in exasperation. It was clear that he was truly anxious now.
“Second brother, this matter ends here. If this continues, it won’t be good for anyone!”
Flamy said without turning her head. She ignored the citizen leader’s dissuasion and walked directly to Morris, indicating that he should take her as a hostage.
Morris froze for a moment, then took a deep breath. As he released the controlled citizen, his arm quickly clasped Xi’s neck.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t want to do this!”
Morris explained, but there was not much guilt in his tone.
I know, and I won’t run away. I only hope that you can keep your promise, because I despise men who break their promises the most!
Morris’s expression turned serious as he nodded slightly.
“Don’t worry, the abandoned people are definitely not as bad as you think. In some places, even you citizens can’t compare!”
are you talking about the ability to resist diseases? I admit that. But then again, what is the ointment you just used? why is it so effective? ”
Xi glanced at Uncle Jim’s wound. She couldn’t hide the shock in her eyes when she saw the scabs on the surface of his skin.
“We’ll talk about this later. Now, retreat with me!”
As Morris spoke, he immediately pulled little Xi back and kept looking at the armed robots to prevent them from suddenly attacking.
The citizen leader glared at Morris, but when his gaze fell on The Woman in White, it was filled with helplessness.
Although he was a little annoyed at his sister’s decision, the citizen leader knew very well that Xi’s approach was the most appropriate, and it would prevent him from making a bigger mistake.
But the problem was that if he did that, his sister would be in danger again, and she might even lose her life in the monster City!
If something really happened to his sister, even if the citizen leader wasn’t beaten to death by his parents, he would definitely suffer for the rest of his life!
Taking a deep breath, the citizen leader spoke in a voice that only he could hear, ” “You’d better not harm little Xi in the slightest, or I’ll definitely kill all the abandoned people, absolutely kill them all!”
Under the watchful eyes of the citizens and the abandoned, Morris and the rest retreated all the way to the entrance of the monster City. They were only one step away from triggering the alarm device.
“It’s almost time, everyone get ready!”
Uncle Jim glanced behind him and reminded the others in a low voice.
As soon as he finished his sentence, a series of strange noises came from the monster City behind them. It was like a super machine that was running non-stop suddenly went into a shutdown state.
For some unknown reason, the people who had not heard any sound at first suddenly felt that the whole world had become quiet.
It seemed that the noise of the monster City would only be heard in the soul, and when the monster City stopped operating, the soul that was affected by the noise would immediately be aware of it!
Time’s Up. Everyone, follow me. Remember, don’t fall behind!
Uncle Jim reminded him again, then stepped on the metal ground that should not be stepped on normally and walked directly toward the entrance of a dark metal building.
Morris and the others followed him one by one, and also entered the entrance, slowly disappearing from everyone’s sight.
When the citizen leader saw this from a distance, he immediately glared at his surroundings, then lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
“Boss, are we still going to continue with our mission?”
A citizen walked over and asked in a low voice.
of course, I’ll continue. And I must succeed!
The citizen leader took a deep breath and said to everyone, ” “However, the situation has changed, so our plan has to change!”
“Xia Lei, Fang Yu, and James, the three of you will follow me to carry out the mission. As for the others, each of you will bring an armed robot and a group of abandoned people to search for Xi’s whereabouts!
After you find Xi, you don’t need to save her, just follow her in secret and help her when she’s in danger!”
Seeing his comrade nod his head, the citizen leader swept a glance at the uneasy abandoned people and said in an icy cold voice, ” “Although I was very angry with the actions of that abandoned person, I wouldn’t take my anger out on you for no reason.
However, in order to ensure the safety of the hostage, I have to find her. You will be hired. As long as you complete the mission, I will give you enough food as a reward. You will not suffer any losses!”
When the abandoned people heard this, they could only helplessly nod their heads. At this moment, they were the same as Morris, they had no other choice!
