After seeing Uncle Jim enter the metal building alone, Morris quickly walked over and tried to follow him in.
His companions quickly stopped him. According to the abandoned people’s practice, exploration missions that entered dangerous buildings were usually completed by one person to reduce the number of casualties in accidents.
Since Uncle Jim had already entered first, they would not act on their own even if they were worried.
However, if it was confirmed that Uncle Jim was in danger, Morris and the rest would definitely save him from the danger even if they had to risk their lives!
Seeing Uncle Jim carefully enter the metal building, everyone began to wait silently, praying that he would be able to find something.
To the abandoned people, every exploration might be their last one, but they had no other choice.
As long as they collected the seeds they needed, Morris and the rest could leave this city that was filled with danger, because every second they stayed for would increase the danger by a second!
Little Xi had been obediently following behind the group after being confined by Tang Zhen’s symbols. She did not dare to secretly leave even if there was no one watching her.
A trapped beast would still fight, and little Xi naturally couldn’t just let herself be manipulated like this. At this time, seeing that everyone’s attention was on the metal building in front of them, she began to gently rub the ornament on her wrist.
Her actions were as careful as possible to avoid raising the vigilance of Tang Zhen and the others.
This ornament was inlaid with many precious gems, and one could tell at a glance that it was valuable, but its most important function was to send positioning information to make it convenient for others to determine little Xi’s location.
Under normal circumstances, the monster City would block all signals that did not belong there. However, during the hibernation period, this blocking function would be greatly reduced, allowing the signal to be successfully sent out.
After doing this, little Xi used her sleeves to cover the ornament, a trace of joy flashing through her heart.
However, she did not notice that Tang Zhen, who was at the very front, had a faint ridiculing smile on his face. It was as though he was extremely clear about everything.
As for Morris, who was beside him, he still looked absent-minded. He was frowning and thinking about something.
About ten minutes later, a figure suddenly appeared at the entrance of the metal building. It was Uncle Jim, who everyone had been waiting for.
Even though he was limping, he still had a bright smile on his face. He had an extra cloth bag on his body, which looked full.
“Sir, I did find plant seeds in there, and there were dozens of them. I didn’t want to miss this rare opportunity, so I dug them all out!
If we can take care of those unripe plants after we return, the amount of food we grow will definitely be enough to last us for several years!”
Although Uncle Jim had lowered his voice, he could not hide the excitement in his tone.
They had to enter the monster cities almost every year, but they had never had such a rich harvest. No wonder Uncle Jim was so happy.
After taking a deep look at Tang Zhen, Uncle Jim knew that without his guidance, he would have missed these mutated plants. This was because there were too many metal buildings in the monster City and it was filled with danger. No one would easily enter.
It was because Uncle Jim trusted Tang Zhen that he took the risk and obtained a harvest that far exceeded his expectations.
Morris and the rest were also very excited. After all, the more they gained, the less likely they would go hungry.
The abandoned people of this world absolutely regarded food as their top priority. Nothing was more important than filling their stomachs!
“Since you’ve already gotten what you want, there’s no point in staying any longer. Furthermore, danger will soon befall this place, and you might lose your lives if you stay!”
Tang Zhen was speaking the truth. With his ability, how could he not be clear about the situation that was happening around the monster City?
It probably wouldn’t take long for him to encounter the enemies from the floating city, and a battle would be inevitable!
After hearing Tang Zhen’s warning, Morris and the others woke up from their joy. They realized that they still had a citizen as a hostage in their hands, and the floating city would definitely not sit by and do nothing.
“Sir, what do you think we should do?”
Morris looked at Tang Zhen for help, hoping that he could give him a suggestion.
“To tell you the truth, with the floating city’s power, you’ll never be able to escape this crisis unless you escape this world.
You only have two choices now. Surrender and let the floating city do whatever it wants to you, and hope that they’ll be magnanimous enough to spare your lives!”
Hearing Tang Zhen’s words, Uncle Jim bitterly smiled and shook his head. He knew that it was impossible for him to have a good ending if he landed in the hands of those citizens.
“Since you all know that this is a dead end, then you can only choose the second option.”
Tang Zhen slowly said as he looked at everyone who was staring at him, gather as many abandoned people as you can and fight to the death with the floating city. From there, you can change your fate completely!
Upon hearing Tang Zhen’s words, everyone revealed a stunned expression. As for little Xi who was standing by the side, her eyes revealed a trace of ridicule.
How could the abandoned people, who were similar to the primitive people, defeat the floating city that was far away in the sky and had such powerful strength? this was simply a fool’s dream!
“Teacher, it’s not that we don’t have the courage, but this matter simply can not succeed. Why do we need to sacrifice the lives of the other abandoned people?”
Uncle Jim shook his head and rejected Tang Zhen’s idea.
in the past, this would have been impossible. But now, with my help, it might be possible!
Tang Zhen’s face was filled with confidence, causing Uncle Jim and the others to be stunned.
Although he knew that Tang Zhen possessed a mystical ability, it was still unrealistic to say that he could fight against the incomparably powerful floating city.
No matter how strong a person was, it was impossible for him to fight against a powerful force with a population of more than ten million people. Unless there was a powerful force behind this mysterious man that could rival him!
Little Xi, who had been watching coldly from the side earlier, suddenly realized this possibility. The gaze she used to look at Tang Zhen became increasingly fearful.
Earlier, when she saw a group of abandoned people and a mysterious man gathered together to discuss a plan to overturn the floating city, little Xi’s heart had been filled with ridicule. However, now, some speculations had changed.
She even had a faint premonition that the other party’s plan might have a chance of success!
An inexplicable fear made her feel at a loss. She was afraid of losing everything she had now, so she subconsciously shouted, ” “The power of the floating city is far beyond your imagination. Stop daydreaming!
As long as you let me go and free me from the restraints, I promise to plead for you and not pursue your crimes!”
At this point, she turned to look at Morris and said as gently as she could, ” Morris, quickly help me persuade them. They must not be so stubborn. They will get you killed!
Hearing little Xi calling his name softly, Morris’s body trembled slightly. After taking a deep breath, he turned his head and looked at Tang Zhen.
“Sir, we really aren’t a match for the floating city. How about Wufu?”
Tang Zhen sneered when he heard this. He waved his hand to stop Morris, who was trying to speak up for little Xi, and said in a cold and indifferent tone, do you believe what she said? do you think she will plead for us? ”
Yes, sir! Morris nodded. I believe you!
“Actually, I also believe it!”
Tang Zhen said to Morris. Seeing the surprise on his face, he continued in a cold voice,”However, his companions will never let you off, nor will they let me off. At this moment, there are already enemies coming towards us.
As for how the enemy could lock onto us in this maze-like Monster City, you can ask her!”
“Sir, I don’t understand what you mean.”
Morris turned his head and looked at little Xi, who was avoiding his eyes, and asked uneasily.
she told her companions our location through the communication device on her wrist. She thought she was being very secretive, but I found out long ago!
Uncle Jim and the others glared at little Xi at the same time when they heard this, and Morris closed his eyes in pain.
Little Xi took a few steps back and shouted in a frightened and unwilling voice, ” “Since you’ve already found out, why didn’t you stop me? what’s your purpose?”
Looking at the mysterious man in front of her, the fear in Xiao Xi’s heart grew stronger and stronger.
“Why should I stop you?”
Tang Zhen’s face was filled with smiles. He looked at little Xi, who had lost control of her emotions, and gently shook his head.
the more people that come to the floating city, the happier I am. This saves me a lot of trouble, and I can easily capture them all in one fell swoop!
