How to Feed an Abyss!

The Mole People (1)

Chapter 94.1 – The Mole People

Shi Yuan asked, “Are these bones…?”

Lu Tinghan studied the guns, bones, and lion sash on the ground, and said, “It seems that the Royal Guards failed to hold this place. These flowers are also infected.”

He always kept his distance from the sea of flowers.

Shi Yuan said “Ah” and looked down.

If one looked casually, this was just the usual sea of flowers, but after taking a closer look, they’d find that the rhizomes of the flowers were translucent, and some leaves gave birth to fine scales.

They sucked the blood of monsters and humans, and failed to escape the infection.

Otherwise, they would have withered long ago.

Lu Tinghan said again: “Shi Yuan, look over there.”

Following the direction of his fingers, Shi Yuan turned his head and saw a huge hole.

The wall over there was completely destroyed.

The walls on this floor were painted with idyllic scenery, coupled with lighting and artificial domes, enough to make it look like real ones. And the hole was so dark that it poked a gap in the dream, exposing the pitch-black nature of the world.

Swish.

Several black monsters flashed across the gap.

It was the kind of monster they saw on the top floor, they couldn’t see what it was, it looked like some kind of mouse.

Shi Yuan asked, “Can this hole be repaired?”

“First of all, we don’t have that many building materials, and even if we have them, we can’t transport them underground,” Lu Tinghan said, “Secondly, underground operations are quite difficult and require large-scale construction robots from the Empire.”

“We can’t find the robot?”

“It’s too difficult. We have limited time, only a few months left.”

In fact, Professor Guan told him that in the black crystal, the smallest monster showed signs of restlessness.

They must race against time and race against death. Repairing such a place was not a luxury they could afford.

Shi Yuan lowered his tail in disappointment: “Well, it seems that we can’t live here anymore.”

Lu Tinghan rubbed his head: “It’s okay, we will be able to reach Elton soon.”

He continued: “It was a surprise that we found this place, so you should take it as a tour. Before this, we never imagined that there would be such a secret town, right? This is the scenery along the way.”

Lu Tinghan had always been very good at coaxing Shi Yuan.

Shi Yuan: “Purr purr—”

He became happy again.

They prepared for the return trip.

Walking up the stairs layer by layer, Lu Tinghan called the aircraft.

Adjutant Bing replied: “Everything is normal at the moment, we are hovering 10 kilometers away from the city.”

Lu Tinghan: “We will be out in half an hour.”

“Okay, then we will fly to the city in 15 minutes to pick you up. In addition, there will be another sandstorm approaching soon, and you may run into it directly.”

“Copy that.”

Adjutant Bing hung up the communication and talked to Chi Yongge and Douglas about the situation.

Douglas went to calibrate the navigator, Chi Yongge and Adjutant Bing stayed in the cockpit, one to check the status of the aircraft and the other to observe the environment.

15 minutes later, Adjutant Bing turned on the “autopilot” mode and the aircraft flew towards the city.

Everything went well, and the group of sea creatures in the air was gone. The city walls were getting closer and closer when he suddenly heard Chi Yongge whispering: “One o’clock!”

Adjutant Bing raised his head immediately.

It was close to evening, the sky was dark, and the clouds in the west were faintly burning red. Another sandstorm was approaching, the wind was strong, and an air of uncertainty filled heaven and earth.

And then—

Several figures flashed past in the small city!

They were too fast, so fast that it seemed like an illusion.

If it was an ordinary monster, they just needed to be vigilant. But Chi Yongge murmured: “I, why do I think it looks a bit like… humans?”

“It seems to be a bit. Is it a humanoid monster?” Adjutant Bing’s voice was also hesitant.

The two men looked at each other, both in awe and doubt.

The wind was blowing harder and harder, and the sight was obscured by the earthy color.

Adjutant Bing called Lu Tinghan: “General! We witnessed moving creatures in the southwest corner of the city. The number was 4 to 5. I’m not sure what the species was. They looked humanoid. Be careful!”

There was an electric current in the channel, and there was no response.

Adjutant Bing was taken aback for a moment and called again, but the walkie-talkie rang “Ziiiii Shaaaa Ziiiiii”. They didn’t know if it was because of the sandstorm or the bad underground signal, they couldn’t contact Lu Tinghan and Shi Yuan.

Chi Yongge said: “They are fine, how could something happen to the two of them? If they encounter a monster, it’s not hard for them to kill it.”

Adjutant Bing stared straight ahead: “They are not afraid of monsters… But I’m afraid that it is not a monster.” His hand clenched unconsciously, “I just seemed to see a human face.”

Chi Yongge was silent for half a second: “Just try it again.”

He turned on the signal lights of the aircraft, which flashed at the frequency of three shorts, three longs, and three shorts. The light was extremely penetrating, and a beam shot through the wind and dust, flickering in the yellow-brown world.

This was a universal distress signal.

If the other party was really human, it should be understood.

Three short, three long, and three short.

Three short, three long, and three short.

Both Chi Yongge and Adjutant Bing had beads of sweat on the tip of their noses, and they were extremely nervous, not missing a trace of detail.

Three short, three long, and three short.

Three short, three long, and three short.

The strong light pierced through the sandstorm, the wind became more and more fierce, and they could hardly see the city wall.

No one responded to them.

“…is it an illusion?” Adjutant Bing murmured, and called Lu Tinghan again. There was a constant sound of buzz in the channel, but the two did not answer.
