Chapter 1166 After the Insect Tide

Lin Yuan had a great harvest this time. The wealth he gained this time alone was something he could never get in several lifetimes.

He entered the city and could clearly see that a barrier had slowly risen outside the underground city, isolating it from the outside of the city.

No one could believe that Lin Yuan could survive this insect tide.

After all, the entire Third City was now in ruins.

Lin Yuan looked at the messy ground around him, then found a relatively hidden place and hid.

Because now the search and rescue team in the Second City and the city lord's subordinates who were collecting magic cores had already started to act.

Lin Yuan knew that when the magic cores were almost collected, the people hiding in the shelter would almost come out. At that time, Lin Yuan would take advantage of the chaos to get into the crowd and then find a way to meet up with Gu Qinglian and the others.

Those who came out of the Second City obviously had higher technology. They drove machines that Lin Yuan had never seen before, and quickly collected the rocks that were damaged into rubble in the ruins.

After the gravel entered the machine, it unexpectedly turned into a complete rock again soon, and the lengths were different, but each rock seemed to have been cut, and the surface was very flat and smooth.

What surprised Lin Yuan was not only the rocks produced by the machine, but also the extremely high efficiency of each machine.

However, the fuel used by the machine was actually low-level magic cores. In comparison, although the effect was extremely high, there was a huge demon behind the equipment, carrying a large bag of earth-level magic cores and adding them from time to time.

These technologies were obviously mastered by the goblin demons, because Lin Yuan clearly saw that everyone driving the machine was from the goblin demon tribe, and there were also a group of demons beside them, helping them with chores.

Unexpectedly, the short and ugly goblin demons had a high status in this underground city.

The goblin demons who collected magic cores drove something similar to a flying vehicle, but the ground seemed to have a strong suction force, and the coverage area was also very large.

A large part of the magic cores, they collected them in a short while by flying the aircraft.

On the aircraft, the magic cores were visible to the naked eye.

Lin Yuan looked at it with great envy, thinking: "If I had wanted such a weapon before, I would have collected hundreds of times more magic cores outside the city than now."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan was a little confused. The resources outside the underground city seemed to be very rich, and the city lord didn't know why the underground city was protected by a barrier.

Although he didn't let the insect tide outside come in, it played a role in protecting the safety of the people in the city, which Lin Yuan could understand.

But what Lin Yuan couldn't understand was that the residents in the city couldn't go out either, according to what Lin Yuan had learned from Wang Xiangui before.

The outside of the city was extremely dangerous, and the underground city explicitly prohibited people from going out, otherwise they would be killed on the spot, no one was exempted.

Only the guards directly led by the city lord could go out, and thousands of people went out each time, but only hundreds of people came back.

And everyone was still covered in wounds, but those who survived and came back would be rewarded by the city lord. As for what kind of reward it was, the outside world didn't know.

...

"The insect tide has passed, and the door of the shelter will be opened within half an hour!"

After hearing the broadcast, the people in the shelter were immediately excited. Most people were cheering, but some people looked extremely sad, because their relatives had disappeared after this insect tide.

Usually after such an incident, the missing people are basically impossible to find.

Besides, their homes have been destroyed. Although the city lord's people will rebuild their manor and will not charge any fees, there are no relatives at home anymore, and everything seems so meaningless.

Wang Xiangui looked relaxed. After this insect tide, he can be said to have made all the money in his life.

Gu Qinglian, who was standing by, was anxious. She was looking forward to seeing Lin Yuan immediately. She looked at the door of the shelter from time to time, and she would say after a while: "Why is the door not open yet? I am so anxious."

Princess Xiangxiang was also looking forward to seeing Lin Yuan again, but her emotions were relatively hidden and not directly expressed.

Seeing that Gu Qinglian was so anxious, Wang Xiangui said directly: "Miss Gu Qinglian, don't be too anxious. Young Master Lin is fine now. We will find him after we go out."

"After we go out, we will meet at the place where we separated. I think Young Master Lin will be waiting for us there."

He didn't say this to comfort Gu Qinglian, but he had divined Lin Yuan's current situation, so he dared to tell the other party in a very firm tone.

Wang Xiangui's words were originally told to Gu Qinglian, but Princess Xiangxiang, who was standing by, also heard them and kept them in mind.

Suddenly, a voice rang out in the shelter: "The shelter gate is about to open. The barrier outside the third city has been repaired. It is safe outside. Please leave without worry."

Just after the words were spoken, a loud noise was heard. The originally cool shelter was slowly filled with light. The inside of the shelter gate, which was previously tightly closed, was illuminated by a kind of glowing magic light fish.

After hearing the news, everyone rushed to the gate, and the crowd began to get agitated. The broadcast just said that they would evacuate in an orderly manner, but they had completely forgotten it at this moment.

Wang Xiangui tried his best to protect Gu Qinglian and Princess Xiangxiang, because he didn't believe that in such a chaotic situation, there would not be some despicable people who took advantage of the two women.

Although Wang Xiangui was not a good person, he still had principles. He was always very polite to the women of the human race. After all, he was a civilized human race. How could he be compared with those barbaric and honest demons?

This was his last pride as a human race.

Suddenly, he was hit by a rough demon behind him.

Wang Xiangui roared: "You vulgar demon, didn't you hear to get out in order? Why are you pushing? Are you in a hurry to reincarnate? Are you blind?"

"Step back now and keep a distance of ten feet from me, or I will tell you to death!"

As he said this, he took out the tortoise shell covered with runes in his hand and shook it, and the copper coins inside jingled.

The demon who bumped into Wang Xiangui saw that he had bumped into the divine calculation element, and immediately retreated three feet, repeatedly apologized to him, and asked for forgiveness.
