Chapter 961: Chapter 297: The Action Begins! (Two-in-One)_3
Lin Su’s expression beca sowhat complex.
The previous investigation team, out of caution, did not let the people in the Sky Wolf Immortal Country know of their existence.
So the young man before him did not know that the telegraph he sent had been received by the Alliance two months ago.
After that, the Alliance imdiately responded, but the telegrams continued to co, even to this day…
Glancing at the telegraph machine in the young man’s arms, Lin Su understood.
This rudintary telegraph machine had no ability to receive ssages.
The boy, unable to get a response, could only keep sending ssages.
“Yes, we received it.” Lin Su spoke softly, not ntioning that they’d received it two months ago, “Just wait a little longer, and soon we will rescue you all.”
Upon hearing this, the joy on the boy’s face slowly faded, his eyes reddened, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
The rescuers had really co. Hills’ wish was fulfilled!
But Hills and his other friends were already…
Of the youths who gathered in the small building, only he was still alive, as the others had gradually perished over the past two months.
Lin Su stood silently in place.
Although he didn’t know what the boy had gone through, he could roughly sense the feeling.
“Sorry.” After a while, the boy fiercely wiped away his tears, took a deep breath, “My na is Thor, this city is filled with powerful beasts, there are many of us, can we really evacuate?”
“I know how many people there are, trust , it’s possible.” Lin Su didn’t explain much, speaking slowly, “You just need to notify everyone one by one to gather at the designated ti and place, and I have a way to take you away.”
“Notify everyone one by one…” Thor’s face went white, as if he had thought of sothing, and he spoke anxiously, “We can’t do that, it will cause problems!”
“What problems?” Lin Su’s eyes shifted slightly, quickly questioning.
“Every city has administrators.” Thor paused for a mont, then spoke quickly, “They try to live better by pleasing the strong beasts, hold so influence, and arrange for us to do various tasks.”
“Besides, there are many contractors who are seen by the beasts as tools to accelerate their growth, constantly monitored by them, and the beasts can perceive human affairs through them.”
“If they find out, the beasts will know too, and we won’t be able to escape.”
Administrators, contractors.
Lin Su took a deep breath.
The forr has, to so extent, sought refuge with the beasts, yet is not quite the sa as the Beast Sect.
Their actions are abhorrent, but not unforgivably so.
In such a desperate environnt, the choices they made are sowhat understandable to Lin Su.
As for the latter, it’s even more tragic, as they cannot hide their secrets in front of the contracted beasts, even if they wanted to.
Luckily, he didn’t reveal himself imdiately, but was drawn by the telegraph sound and arrived here first.
After witnessing so much misery, he beca utterly furious, and mistakes in his actions were inevitable.
He almost caused a disaster.
He cast a strange glance at the boy in front of him.
This boy was different from the other humans in the Sky Wolf Immortal Country.
His eyes were not dull, rather they showed so agility.
He was able to piece together a telegraph in such an environnt.
More importantly…
He was very familiar with this place.
So, his own plan wouldn’t work, perhaps it was better to ask this boy.
“Can you gather as many people as possible without being detected by the beasts?” Lin Su asked softly.
Hearing Lin Su’s question, Thor’s eyes showed contemplation.
“Day or night?”
“Night.” Lin Su unhesitatingly replied.
With the Dark Night Descending, rescuing at night would be more efficient than during the day.
“At night…” Thor pondered for a mont, then spoke slowly, “Gathering at night is slightly easier.”
“The nearby buildings are where all the humans of Moon Wolf City reside, at this ti, everyone would return to rest, but there are a few exceptions.”
“The first group is the contractors, who generally don’t co back, they all live on the beasts’ territory.”
“The second group is those serving the nocturnal beasts, their schedule is opposite to ours, coming back during the day to rest.”
“As for the third group…” Thor’s voice paused slightly, “those chosen as the next day’s beasts’ blood food, unable to return that night, would be held together.”
Lin Su silently clenched his fist.
So beasts liked eating humans, requiring a certain amount of blood food daily.
He had seen this on the way here.
“If the contractors and others are gathered, the contracted beasts will definitely detect it, and the beasts will break free from the Guardian Beast Contract, killing the contractors.” Thor paused his speech, “Those serving nocturnal beasts must be adjusted through the administrators.”
“So administrators are nice to us, but others…”
Thor didn’t continue, but Lin Su already understood what he ant.
Contractors pose a huge risk, and administrators are equally untrustworthy.
Thor implied that these two groups should be abandoned.
Choices…
Lin Su sighed inwardly, “How many contractors are there?”
“Quite a few.” Thor sighed, “Because contractors can get enough to eat, although the Beast Taming Space poses a constant risk of injury, but here, there’s no safe work anyway.”
