Three days have passed, and it's been the last time Morningstar saw Crokas.

Crokas did give the morning star plenty of space, as he said. And Morningstar also knew very well that Crokas did what he said, so he didn't take the prisoners in the base to escape and save himself. On the surface, it seems to be peaceful, but secretly there is an undercurrent.

As for Klokas, the surveillance of the slaves has increased considerably, and while sitting in the watchtower, Morningstar notices that the number of dead people in charge of monitoring around him has at least doubled, and a number of insects that were previously hidden by Klokas have also appeared around the excavation site.

As for Morningstar, Joanna's investigation allowed him to learn a lot of information, how many of the slaves in the excavation field have taken refuge in Crokas, and at this time, through Joanna's arrangement, there is already a secret group among these slaves, and Joanna named it the Self-Rescuer.

The composition of self-helpers is very responsible, and there are people from almost all walks of life, and although they are now doing hard labor, they have much more energy in them. Just now, Morning Star appeared in the excavation field as if nothing had happened, pointing and gesturing to make people resentful. However, this sentiment of the vast majority of people is disguised, pretending to have a lot of opinions about the morning star, in order to buy more time for the self-helper organization.

"Hey, are you lazy?" Morningstar walked over to a skinny man at the edge of the excavation site and lightly kicked him in the ass that was crouching on the ground.

Although the thin man's figure could not be compared with Morning Star, his courage was worthy of recognition, and he turned his head and glared at Morning Star without speaking.

Morning Star grabbed the back of the man's neck and pulled him up, and then grabbed the man's shoulder angrily, and said, "It seems that the workload is still not big enough, I don't know what you think I will let you dig up the area in front of you, just yourself." ”

The man looked nervous, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I can't dig this piece." ”

Then Morningstar turned in a different direction and continued to ask, "Over there, how do you feel?" ”

"It's all rocks over there, and with our current capabilities, I'm afraid it will take too long, and I don't think it can be done."

"That's not going to work, it has to be dug up over there, you only have two days."

"Do you have to need it?"

"By all means!"

"Then I'll give it a try!"

A messy conversation, even if Clokas was in front of the two, I was afraid that he didn't know what the two were talking about. But for Morning Star and this thin man, they understood the deep meaning of these words. Behind the rock, there was a way for them to escape.

The thin man knew very well that Morning Star would ask him to do this, it must be very important, and as a member of the self-help club, he knew very well what he should do.

The reason why Morningstar asked for this was because he had received a psychic communication from Nasdar the night before, and because he had tested the distance when he left, Morningstar had received Nas

After Stahl's message, he began to try in various positions. Eventually, it was determined that the location of Nasdar and the others was just behind the stone wall.

The thin man didn't know why Morningstar asked him to dig up the stone wall, but since Morningstar said it, it must be the result of his discussion with Joanna, even if it was a gamble, the skinny man would do what Morningstar ordered. The thin man was a geological engineer, at least before he was captured, and Morningstar also learned his identity through Joanna, which is why the two had this previous conversation. The man took the order and left, and it was not very clear how he would fulfill his request Morning Star, but since the current situation was like this, Morning Star could only be used to the fullest.

On the periphery of the digging field, Klokas looked at the scene in the distance, and a smug smile appeared on his face. Morning Star knows where the artifact is, as long as Morning Star has arrangements and actions, it means that he is one step closer to the artifact. Crokas can be said to have no idea whether these captives live or die, and he can execute them all if he likes. However, these captives are something that Morningstar cares about, and without the safety of these captives as a threat, Morningstar will definitely not look for artifacts. Although the Mandate of Heaven Sect had already sent reinforcements to the Golden Farm, wouldn't it be even greater if he could find the artifact independently before the reinforcements arrived?

Seeing Morning Star leave the thin man, Klokas reached out and called Xu Yuan behind him, and after whispering a few words in his ear, Xu Yuan took the order and left.

……

In Morningstar's room, Joanna crawled quietly on Morningstar's chest, her smooth back trembling slightly under Morningstar's big hands. Joanna was very quiet, Morningstar had already explained to her the wonderful sensing ability between herself and Nasdar, although Joanna didn't believe this kind of thing in her heart, but since it came from Morningstar's mouth, it must not be fake. At this moment, Morningstar was closing his eyes, and a strange expression appeared on his face from time to time, Joanna thought that he was communicating with the people over there, but if she could spy on Morningstar's thoughts, then he would definitely find out that Morningstar was flirting with Nasdar at the moment.

"Hey, Morningstar! It's only been a few days, why is there another woman by your side? Could it be that we can't satisfy you? ”

"No, there's a reason for that, I'll explain it to you when we meet."

"Hmph, there is no need to explain, the wood is already in the boat, what's the use of explaining, but after we meet, we must squeeze you dry and let you show mercy everywhere."

"Hey! That's what you said, be prepared, don't beg for mercy halfway! ”

"Blind arrogance!"

The reason why Morning Star is so relaxed at this moment is because he has already received some good news from his previous communication with Nasdar. The first point is that Nasdar and the others have already set up fortifications in the tunnels that have been dug, and as long as Morningstar needs to evacuate the captives, it only needs to break the stone wall, and then let all the captives enter the tunnel, under the cover of the fortifications

Carry out the evacuation. The second point is that Ning Wuya has already made contact with Vasily, and after discussion, Vasily decided to let the Goddess's Eye with the best performance carry out rescue work, at this moment in space, the Goddess's Eye is ready, and these captives in the base are not a problem at all for the powerful power of the Goddess's resourcefulness, as long as people can get in, then they can guarantee the evacuation. Thirdly, and most happily for Morningstar, Nasdar had helped Morningstar determine that the end of the tunnel they were now in was where the artifact was located. With this news, Morningstar feels that the success rate of evacuating the captives will be higher. The attraction of the artifact to the Manifest Destiny Sect is far greater than killing these captives, since the artifact appears on the other side of the tunnel, then the Morning Star only needs to inform Crokas of this information, and in that case, the threat of the Manifest Destiny Sect without high-end combat power to the resistance will be minimized. As for the insects? Morningstar remembered the affectionate way they cowered when Morningstar passed by a few insects earlier, and a light smile unconsciously broke out on their faces.

"Is there a plan?" Joanna felt Morningstar's big hand move to some intimate part of her body, and she knew that Morningstar was already sure. Without looking up, he reached out and stroked Morningstar's chest, and said in his mouth.

Morningstar also didn't put his eyes on Joanna's body, stared straight at the ceiling, and replied, "Well, sort of, but there are too many uncertainties in it, and many details are betting." ”

Joanna moved her body up a little, rested her head on Morning Star's chest, and said, "Then you must be careful. ”

"You too, follow the army when the time comes, I have arranged for people to meet you, and they will protect you. Once on my boat, I was safe. Morningstar lowered his head and kissed Joanna lightly, for this woman, the feelings in his heart were also very complicated.

Joanna quietly enjoyed the gentleness of the morning star, and then rode on the morning star again with great effort, and the blush on her face that had not faded made Joanna very charming. With a flick of her long hair, Joanna stretched out her tongue and licked her bright red lips, and said, "Parting is imminent, I will use all my time to possess you!" ”

"Hmm......" Morning Star sighed, he was really happy about Joanna's initiative, but he was also bitter in it.

……

The Mandate of Heaven Sect's forces in the excavation site had increased significantly, and Morningstar knew that this was the result of Krokas taking back all the forces deployed on the periphery. There are a lot more dead soldiers in the base, and although each of these guys has a dead face, there is still a difference. Walking down the corridor leading to the excavation site, almost all of the dead men who entered Morningstar's eyes were living faces. The number of these guys is too huge, even if they are killed one by one, I am afraid it will be enough for Morning Star to be busy for half a day. But when Morningstar saw the insects that were also increasing, the boulder in his heart was also put down.

After a night of work in the excavation site, there was still no noticeable progress, but because of the careful attention, Morningstar noticed a slight difference. The skinny man

The man did a good job, he really seized all the time to carry out the orders of the morning star. There was obviously no way for the huge rock wall to pass through directly, after all, the workers in the excavation site were just ordinary humans, not tunnel worms. But next to that stone wall, an extra crater was blown in to let Morning Star know that this was a thin man's curvy way to save the country.

No longer hiding his power, when Morning Star jumped down from the upper platform more than ten meters high, he still spotted the figure of Klokas in the tower in the distance with the corner of his eye. Krokas seems to be very satisfied with the strength of Morning Star, as the opponent who is about to fight, Morning Star's athletic skills make Krokas feel that he can fight this battle heartily.

Morningstar didn't pay any attention to Krokas's surveillance, and strode up to the thin man who didn't know if he had rested, and found that his eyes were extremely excited at the moment, even if he already had dark panda eyes, but he couldn't stop his mental excitement.

"My lord! Here you can bypass the stone wall and reach the tunnel behind the stone wall. Seeing the arrival of the morning star, the thin man lowered his voice and said.

Morning Star nodded, and also lowered his voice and said, "How about it, have the people been arranged, and can they all be evacuated by then?" ”

The thin man was a little disappointed when he heard Morning Star's question, and replied, "It's difficult, after all, someone wants to rest." Those who were resting were not allowed to move around, and they were afraid that they would have to take advantage of the chaos to run here. In this case, I am afraid that there will be a lot of sacrifices. ”

Morning Star nodded again, sighed lightly and said, "There is no way to do this, you can only hope for luck." As he spoke, he patted the thin man on the shoulder and said, "Take a break when it's time to rest, lest you lose the strength to run away when you don't even have the strength to escape." ”

The man smiled wryly, then nodded in agreement.

The atmosphere in the base was heightened by the increasing number of Mandate of Heaven Sect soldiers. Not everyone knew that someone would come to save them, and the few people who joined the self-help club also received their own orders under Joanna's arrangement, and they would organize personnel to evacuate when the time came. Morning Star knows that among these people in the Self-Rescue Association, I am afraid that there will be many desperate escapes at that time, this cannot be avoided, after all, the reason why they will fly separately when disaster is coming Morning Star understands. But as long as there is one person who is willing to shout or pull one up, it is a kind of help.

The day passed without incident, and when Morningstar tried to return to his room, he saw Krokas again.

Klokas stopped Morningstar as he was about to leave the excavation site, and the two of them once again stood on the platform on the upper level of the excavation site as if they were normal friends.

"Looks like you're pretty much ready, I can't imagine that up to now, the eyeliner I've planted in these people hasn't been able to provide me with any useful information, how did you do it?" Krokas was the first to speak, and there was no joy or sorrow in his voice, but it really seemed that he was very interested in the arrangement of the morning star.

Morningstar shrugged his shoulders and replied, "You have also lived as a human, and you should also know that although humans often fight among themselves, they encounter great external strife

When you come to threaten, you can always be united, especially since your current land belongs to the Republic! ”

"Hmm!" Klokas nodded and said, "Is it true that as you said, the greatest characteristic of the people of the Republic?" But you seem to be avoiding my core question, which is so insincere. ”

"Humph!" Morningstar snorted coldly and said, "Then should I tell you all my plans and let you respond accordingly?" ”

Krokas laughed loudly, waved his hand after a long time, and said, "Forget it, these are just trivial matters, after all, you and I both know in our hearts that the final key battle is how to fight for the artifact." But I'm still interested in how you can protect so many captives with just one person. Even if the rebels out there are going to help you, how do you get in touch with them? I'm shielded here, so I'm really interested. ”

Morningstar shrugged his shoulders again and said, "That's all just your guess, how can you be sure I'm not a lone hero?" Besides, if you are going to install an internal response, can't I rebel against your soldiers? ”

"Oh?" Krokas stared at Morning Star with interest for a long time, then smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Don't forget, the dead here will never disobey my orders, and if there is a conflict between you and my orders, they will ignore you." ”

Morningstar didn't linger on this topic, and after a long time, he suddenly said, "You should have noticed that place." ”

Klokas nodded and said, "Presumably your plan has something to do with it." I don't stop you, and if you can protect those people from evacuation with the power of my entire base, that's your ability. ”

"Give it back, Crokas." Morningstar turned to look at Krokas, and saw that the other party was looking at him as well.

"Yes!"

"Let's set our battlefield behind that stone wall, those who have escaped from the base, I hope you don't attack them." Morningstar said as he looked at Klokas.

Crokas laughed again and asked rhetorically, "If I do this, what can you give me?" ”

"The location of the artifact! Sure, it's not exact, but the decision will give you a clear direction. Morningstar replied with an equally confident smile on his face.

"Oh?" Crokas pinched his jaw, as if wondering if the information would be useful to him. After a long time, he nodded and said, "Deal!" ”

"A gentleman's agreement?" Morningstar asked again.

"A gentleman's agreement!" Crokas replied.

The smile on Chenxing's face was even stronger, and he stretched out his hand to point to the stone wall, and said, "Just behind that stone wall, there is a passage left by a tunnel worm, and in the depths of the tunnel, is where the artifact is!" ”

Krokas looked at Morning Star without blinking his eyes as he spoke, until he was sure that Morning Star was not lying, Krokas turned his body and said as he walked, "Gentleman's agreement, our battlefield is in that tunnel, when you start to act, I."

will act! ”

Looking at the back of Klokas gradually leaving, Morningstar said inexplicably, "I said, should you dig it yourself now?" ”

Morningstar's words almost didn't make Crokas stumble, and adjusted his movements, and Crokas said loudly, "Morningstar! How much do you look down on me and think I'm going to do something like this? Although we are in different camps, I also have my own pride! ”

Morningstar left, after Crokas left. Back in her room, Joanna was already waiting.

"Morningstar, there are more and more soldiers in the base, and those strange bugs. Can we really escape from them? Joanna saw Morning Star enter the house, nervously ran to Morning Star's side, and asked in a trembling voice.

Morningstar stroked Joanna's cheek and comforted, "Don't worry, our battlefield is in the back tunnel." ”
