Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone

Chapter 416: Now It's Your Turn to Perform



These four fellows are quite easy to deceive.

Initially, Wang Jixuan was a bit worried about whether these four would just flee after leaving Cloud City.

He even had Amina ready to shut down the interstellar gate in outer space at any moment.

However, the development of events indeed took Wang Jixuan by surprise.

Not only did these four not escape, but they also cooperated very well with Wang Jixuan's arrangements, hiding wherever they were told and changing hideouts continuously without any complaints.

Their eyes sparked with intense battle intent!

They really want to kill another group of people!

Master Wang thought carefully.

Next, as long as the other group shows up, a lot of information will be mutually verified, and he could probably get the truth of these matters.

For now, it's still not ruled out that the two groups could be colluding.

Wang Jixuan transmitted a message, instructing Wu Man and the others to be extra cautious and not to trust strangers.

His main body remained hidden in Cloud City, while the Alien Soul Avatar discreetly donned a bunch of Magic Treasures refined in a previous life and followed the side of this four-person squad.

——These Magic Treasures are stored in Cloud City, untouched by time.

The Daoist led them back to the surface to start contemplating how to act as bait.

Mu Dan had prepared many secret weapons, which hadn't been used on the front line yet, but today they could be put to use.

In the central hall of Cloud City.

Wang Jixuan's main body sat with eyes closed, concentrating, as if meditating, yet also resembling being in a deep sleep.

Ding ding!

Mu Dan's voice sounded: "Commander, the third transit station has captured Spiritual Ability Waves for the third time, totaling fourteen sources. They are hiding among the passengers returning to Earth. Should we directly bomb the space elevator?"

Wang Jixuan asked: "Is there a plan to avoid civilian casualties?"

"Currently, there isn't," Mu Dan replied simply, "Each space elevator compartment seats only thirty-six; I've locked onto two targets. If they all gather in one compartment, civilian casualties would be just over a dozen. Allowing them to reach the surface could cause a disaster a hundred-fold greater."

"Directly bombing civilians seems a bit too unethical."

Wang Jixuan clicked his tongue:

"Do you know why righteousness sometimes finds itself handcuffed and foot-tied?"

"Our moral bottom line shouldn't be too low. Actions should consider the nature of the event, not just the gains and losses."

"Let them come down; I'll figure something out."

"Quietly evacuate the potentially affected cities and fortresses without creating a stir, to avoid alarming the enemy."

"Yes!"

Mu Dan muttered softly on the communicator's other end:

"Killing people to kill evildoers is protection, right?"

"The plan with least loss is the optimal plan, after all."

"You have a pretty dangerous mindset, comrade."

Wang Jixuan didn't quite know how to refute Mu Dan, so he could only tease her.

The target is roughly determined; now, the subsequent matters are much easier.

To minimize the affected area, Wang Jixuan's Alien Soul led the four people and turned towards the nearby space elevator.

The so-called space elevator isn't a fixed cord extending infinitely into outer space.

It's a flexible segmented tube, with different section speeds, maintained by precise real-time calculations for smooth tube traffic, within which passengers are transported up and down in candy-coated-style elevators.

This is the lowest-cost space travel solution.

The bad news is that the surroundings of the space elevators are often bustling industrial cities, densely populated, with high production value.

If action is taken directly at the end of the space elevator, significant casualties are likely.

Now Wang Jixuan can only try to lure the opponent out.

He simply sent his Alien Soul near a military fortress and directly revealed his Qi, strolling leisurely through the mountain woods.

Mu Dan mobilized a large number of Mechanical Bodies to hide in another zone.

Wu Man and Zheng Shiduo traversed underground, setting up a defensive large array.

The four mysterious visitors, too, were positioned nearby by Wang Jixuan, poised for ambush as the main force in the upcoming battle.

Only by making these two mysterious groups fight can Wang Jixuan benefit like a fisherman.

Truth be told, his fishing hook is almost straight.

Mainly relying on those who are willing to take the bait.

...

Meanwhile, inside the rapidly descending space elevator.

Hei Yao embraced his arms, eyes closed, meditating, attentively sensing the environmental changes around.

He could smell the scent of danger.

Just like now, Hei Yao felt a peculiar atmosphere in the air as if below the elevator, there was already a Pillar Blade Beast opening its mouth, waiting for them to dive right in.

Have they already been discovered?

If Hei Yao's plan wasn't incorrect, they should have already been discovered now.

Exactly.

Mu Dan could capture their Spiritual Ability Waves consecutively three times because Hei Yao deliberately made it so.

Hei Yao actually did not inform these mysterious guests about how much defensive power the Yina Civilization's capital Cloud City really had.

His purpose was simple;

To let these people suffer setbacks.

Only then would they rely more on him, allowing him to extract more technology or enhance his own value.

'See, you can't deal with the Black Storm at all; cooperate with me. I mean cooperation, not just following your orders.'

That's it.

However, Hei Yao must calculate every step precisely from now on.

He can't let these people die here; otherwise, his hard-earned plan will be ruined again.

In the past eighty years, without a stage for the Black Storm, Hei Yao has rarely suffered losses.
