The Place of the Captive
Hearing the cheers from below the stage.
All the members of the Exploration Team felt their adrenaline pumping.
Before setting off.
Teacher said that he would prepare a grand banquet for them.
At that time, they did not pay much attention to it.
However, they did not expect the banquet to be so big.
Using so much manpower and resources.
Their blood was pumping fast.
At this time, they couldn’t help but feel touched.
Fortunately, they did not fail.
Successfully bringing back what Li Yueming wanted at the cost of a few team members.
After more than twenty days of exploration.
The members of the Exploration Team, who were stepping onto the Surface World for the first time, saw the charm of the Surface World.
It was simply like a dose of poison that made them unable to stop.
The Underground World without sunlight or breeze was nothing to be praised for except safety.
It was precisely because of this
Only then did they completely understand why Li Yueming insisted on exploring the Surface World.
…
The banquet lasted the entire night.
After that.
The injured members of the team were sent to the medic room to recuperate.
Meanwhile, Li Yueming came to the depths of the prison set up by the Star Moon Alliance alone.
This place was originally used to hold felons.
However, ever since the remaining sewer bosses were completely destroyed,
It had been a long time since a new prisoner had been locked up.
And now.
This prison had become a special existence that imprisoned the Surface World Humans.
Li Yueming continued forward.
Soon, he arrived in front of a man wrapped in a thick green cloth.
The man was in his twenties.
Although he looked haggard, he still tried his best to maintain his composure.
However, the green hat on his head looked comical no matter how one looked at it.
Li Yueming was stunned and almost laughed out loud.
This guy was the leader of the group of humans in strange clothes that he had deduced previously.
After repeated deductions,
Li Yueming decided to go all the way.
He directly sent a team of explorers to capture him from the Surface World.
That was the only way.
Only then would he truly know what had happened on the Surface World.
The man looked at Li Yueming and said nervously, “Where is this place? Why did you capture me?”
His accent was slightly different from the language of the Underground World.
But the overall difference was not much.
Li Yueming said truthfully, “This is the Underground World. Have you heard of it?”
When he heard the words “Underground World”,
The man’s pupils constricted and he revealed an extremely terrified expression.
After looking around, he said in disbelief, “What did you say? This is a place of captivity?”
As soon as the place where they were kept in captivity appeared,
Li Yueming immediately understood.
Apparently.
His guess was right.
It was not that the beasts had not discovered the Underground World.
Instead, they raised the Underground World like animals.
After a short and rapid breath.
The man finally calmed down a little.
After sizing up Li Yueming a few times, he suddenly changed the topic. “What’s your purpose in capturing me? If my clansmen discover that I’m missing, they will definitely follow the traces I left behind to find me. At that time, it will definitely cause a war between the Surface World and the Underground World. Will you take responsibility for this outcome?!”
Li Yueming rubbed his chin.
This guy was obviously lying.
In the previous deduction, Li Yueming had held this guy hostage once.
At that time, this fellow’s so-called clansmen were even more stable, accurate, and ruthless after discovering that he was prepared to reveal his secrets.
He killed this fellow with a single dagger.
He did not believe that they would start a war with the Underground World for him alone.
Moreover, this guy’s change of topic was too stiff, right?
Li Yueming was expressionless.
He took out an extremely sharp long saber from behind and placed it on the man’s neck.
He said calmly, “I’ll give you another chance, choose your words carefully!”
He looked at the cold blade on his neck.
The man’s expression changed several times.
A moment later.
The man squeezed out a stiff smile and said, “Big Brother, let’s talk things out. No matter what, we were from the same race decades ago. There’s no need to fight, right?”
Li Yueming also smiled.
He revealed a few white teeth.
However, the shiny blade in his hand trembled unconsciously.
The man almost peed his pants.
He hurriedly said, “Big Brother, I was just joking. Feel free to ask me anything. I’ll tell you everything I know!”
Hearing him beg for mercy.
Only then did Li Yueming retract his saber.
He said with interest, “You just said that our Underground World is a place of captivity?”
The man swallowed his saliva and asked, “Don’t you know?”
Li Yueming shook his head.
The man looked puzzled. “In that case, how did you leave the Underground World?”
Li Yueming’s expression did not change.
He said coldly, “You don’t seem to understand the situation?”
The man immediately shrank back.
He looked at Li Yueming with fear in his eyes.
One had to know that even when facing his temperamental father, the man had never been so afraid.
But on Li Yueming.
However, he really felt an aura that made him shudder.
It was as if he was facing a ferocious tiger.
Elegant and domineering.
So much so that he did not even dare to retort.
He said honestly, “That’s right. The Underground World is a breeding ground for mutated creatures!”
Before Li Yueming could continue asking, *
The man continued, “About 20 years ago, the mutated creatures on the Surface World absorbed many strange substances and developed intelligence that was not inferior to Humans. They gathered and elected eight mutated beast kings, and the mutated beast kings led the other mutated creatures to attack Human territory!”
“After that, the Human shelters scattered around the world were destroyed by them!”
“The same goes for Fallout Shelter 0911!”
“After completely destroying the living power of Humans, the mutated creatures called themselves new Humans and began to learn the social order of Humans. Moreover, their appearance gradually evolved into Humans!”
“In order to learn better from Humans, these mutated creatures will deliberately leave a group of Humans behind as the spark of civilization for them to observe and imitate!”
“And you are the spark of civilization left behind by these mutated creatures!”
“That’s what I said. A place to be kept in captivity!”
He listened to the man’s description.
Li Yueming rubbed his chin.
Obviously.
Even if only a few words were revealed in these exchanges.
It might cause a huge commotion in the entire Underground World.
The Underground World that the refugees treasured so much was actually just a mutated creature’s social laboratory.
Such an unbelievable conclusion would definitely drive many people crazy.
But to Li Yueming,
This was not too surprising.
After all, he had already sensed the abnormality from the beginning.
Moreover, he had already guessed this.
However, there was no evidence to prove it.
Of course.
A group of mutated animals seriously studied the social order of Humans and called themselves the new Humans of the century…
It still sounded a little creepy.
He thought about it.
Li Yueming did not continue to discuss this topic.
Instead, he changed the topic and asked, “What’s your name and identity?”
The man carefully observed the expression on Li Yueming’s face.
He tried to find expressions like ‘shock’ and ‘disbelief’ on his face.
But no matter how he sized him up,
He didn’t see any emotion on Li Yueming’s face.
He could not help but say, “My name is Gu Tianye. I’m the youngest son of the leader of the Survivor Alliance of Fallout Shelter 0911!”
