Chapter 445: Preparation for Going Out
At this moment, the jackal with broken eyebrows seemed to have grown a little bigger. The part that was exposed out of the mud, its fur was oily and shiny.
“This jackal isn’t injured. They probably didn’t fight yesterday.”
Simmons comforted himself, but soon he saw another skeleton. He carefully identified it and found that it was the body of the lion-shaped monster.
It seemed that they had fought in the end, and the jackal had won.
The jackal had defeated the lion. Among humans, this was equivalent to a Tier Two god-king defeating a Tier Three god-king.
Although any monster of Tier Three had the cultivation level of a Tier Three god-king, monsters of the same level and different species had a huge difference in their combat strength.
“Although I don’t know what happened, it’s obvious that these jackals are getting stronger and stronger.”
Simmons said slowly, “I don’t know what the best form of this monster is, so my suggestion is to use the second tower to kill the jackals.”
Apollo nodded. After coming down, he followed Simmons’s suggestion and gathered everyone.
“Everyone, two things.”
Apollo said loudly to ensure that everyone could hear.
“The first thing is that our food problem is still imminent.”
After returning yesterday, Apollo casually asked a random person if the brainstorm from yesterday had any results.
That person rolled his eyes and thought for a moment before answering, “It’s too fun. It’s like a party where you act like a lunatic.”
Apollo couldn’t say anything. After asking a few people, he gathered more or less the the same outcome. It was yesterday’s brainstorm had only been a storm, but not a brain.
In actual fact, Apollo also didn’t expect to get anything useful from the meeting. But now that their last hope was gone, they had to prepare for the worst.
Apollo nodded at Simmons, and Simmons understood.
“Everyone, we, the Sky Dynasty, are facing a huge food shortage.”
Simmons walked in front of everyone and said loudly.
“Now we only have the oily bacon to eat, nothing else.”
“Unfortunately, this bacon can only last us for a month.”
“After a month’s time, everyone will starve to death here.”
“The scrawny look will be our remains. Our last words will be nonsense from the illusion of having a good meal. Humiliation and regret will be our epitaph.”
“Of course, majority of us cannot accept this way to die. We will pick up our weapons and laugh maniacally for killing another enemy before we are torn to pieces by the monsters.”
“It is indeed tragic and poetic for us to die in this manner.”
“But don’t forget, as a member of the Sky Dynasty, the corpses were fed to those monsters after we died. His Majesty who is far away on the fourth level, where would be his pride?”
“My tribe is a rich and tolerant place. They will not be stingy in giving us food, weapons, seeds, water, and everything you want.”
“The prerequisite is to see them.”
“So, how many of you have the guts? Are you willing to follow me to the outside of the Great Wall to find my tribe?”
The more Simmons spoke, the more excited he became. His voice was already loud enough in the beginning, but in the end, it almost turned into a roar.
Everyone was very excited from the beginning. After seeing Apollo give the right to speak to Simmons, most of them already understood the meaning behind it. Before Simmons’s speech reached the most exciting moment, they had already brandished the long sword in their hands.
“I’m willing to go!”
Almost everyone raised their hands, including those who were publicly acknowledged as weak in battle.
Sharena also raised her hand, even though she was the shortest among them, and her raised arm was already blocked by the people before her.
Simmons and Apollo were in front. When they saw so many people raise their hands, they let out a sigh.
Everyone knew how dangerous this trip was. If they were not careful, they would lose their lives.
Going out was a last resort. In fact, it was no different from gambling. In terms of probability, it was more appropriate to describe it as a lottery ticket.
Apollo took over the topic, stood up and said.
“Then everyone, get ready for the next few days. We will set off in three days.”
“When our distillation machine is finished, all the water for the first three days will be allocated to you for your journey.”
The construction of the distillation machine had reached the end. All the materials had been prepared. It would not take long for them to be put together. Currently, as the designer, Bulanda was directing the overall work.
“Are you guys going out?”
Bulanda glanced at them and hesitated for a moment before asking.
Simmons nodded. “Yes, don’t say you want to go. You have to stay in a safe place.”
The Sky Dynasty’s people were unable to ascend to the fourth level because of Bulanda’s existence. As an external monarch trial-taker, Bulanda was judged to be illegally teaming up with the Sky Dynasty.
The administrator was the one who said this.
However, considering the administrator’s position, which was opposite to that of the Sky Dynasty…
The manager’s words could not be easily believed. The administrator was probably just trying to induce everyone to kill Bulanda.
From this perspective, the person that the administrator wanted to kill so badly was probably a key figure at a certain point.
Thus, Bulanda was protected by the group. For any dangerous activities, they could not bring Bulanda along.
Including this trip, even if Bulanda knelt down and begged to follow them, they would definitely not agree.
After a long silence, Brenda let out a long sigh.
“If, I mean if…”
Bulanda’s expression was a little ugly at this moment. His entire face was like a bitter melon as he spoke in a tone that was practically begging.
“If you can pass by the east side of the swamp, remember to look for my wife. If she’s still alive, she must still be bitterly waiting for me.”
It was exactly what Simmons was thinking. If the others walked out of the Great Wall, it might be because they were forced by the situation.
However, Bulanda was different. Bulanda might be the only person here who voluntarily walked out of the Great Wall. After all, his wife was still outside.
“Don’t worry. If we have the energy, we will definitely bring your wife back. She is also a part of the Sky Dynasty.”
Previously, His Majesty had taken away Bulanda’s Empire Era fragment, which meant that Bulanda’s dynasty would be subordinate to the Sky Dynasty. Everything, be it Bulanda himself or his subordinates, from then on, they would be an inseparable part of the Sky Dynasty.
