CHAPTER 130: CHAPTER 130: DUAL DISASTER UNVEILED, THE WORLD FALLS SILENT!

"Lin Yue, we mean no harm, really, it’s just... we’re a bit too surprised to know what to do. Our boss speaks very directly, please don’t mind him, trust me, let’s cooperate."

At this moment, Lin Yue looked at the message sent by Xia Feihong and almost burst into laughter.

Good grief, after all that and still claiming no hostility, really now? They’ve been bullying their way around on Earth, using their might to pressure the weak, and they want to pull the same stunt here?

These guys are really something, when they can’t scare people with a big stick, they try the carrot tactic instead. Why are they so free?

Moreover, they even stayed around to make sure he didn’t move until nightfall before finally departing, truly thoughtful of them.

Was it dangerous at the time?

It was indeed dangerous. The other side came with a total of 27 people. Including those behind the city wall and trees, there were 33.

The "62 people" they mentioned probably isn’t an exaggeration, likely including the old and young, it might really be that many.

If these 33 people attacked him all at once, he could find himself in a tough fight instantly.

But if they really decided to do that, no matter if he got hurt or what, at least all of them would be stuck here. Bai’s speed is beyond their capture, and he wouldn’t sit idly by.

Moreover, he felt that these people couldn’t really kill.

Lin Yue didn’t know why, he just had this feeling.

Perhaps this intuition came from having done this kind of thing many times, bringing him a sense he didn’t really want.

"Bai, what do you think would happen when they surround the place we stayed at before tomorrow morning and find no one?"

"Pujji?" Bai, holding a skewer of roasted meat, looked up at Lin Yue and tilted its head in thought, "Pujji pujji."

Lin Yue petted it, chuckling softly.

The group left when it was already dark. With Bai’s vigilance and using the power of the exoskeleton, Lin Yue dug a large pit three meters long and wide with a height of about one and a half meters at the corner’s blind spot on the other side of the forest where they ambushed him.

Piling up stones continuously, he obtained the "Low Wall" design and erected this three-meter-wide, only one and a half meters high wall in the pit’s four directions, successfully merging them together.

Then, just like last time, he put a layer of wire mesh leaving an opening, covered it with sheepskin, added a few stone walls, and slightly concealed it with branches, leaves, and mud, finally entering himself and covering the last stone slab.

In this one-and-a-half-meter-high "stone coffin," Lin Yue laid down another layer of stones on the ground, padded it with sheepskin, and comfortably lay on top, turning on the flashlight.

Gotta say, it’s much more comfortable than imagined, and quite spacious too, other than not being able to stand upright, movement was still quite free.

Prepared a meal for Bai who worked hard all day, Lin Yue also watched the system’s map panel.

He found out that once he arrived in this area, the system automatically included this area’s map into the entire regional map, making it convenient for him to monitor and observe Xia Feihong’s group.

He could actually wait until dawn in that triangular wall before heading to the Ancient Secret Realm Gate, much easier.

But that group probably wouldn’t let him stay that peacefully inside. Maybe, who knows, they might take action before dawn?

Moreover...

Tonight, specifically, over five hours later, is when the system is releasing the announcement of the disaster this time.

This disaster differs from the previous two; after entering the system-determined "Electronic Era," the system brought another upgrade, directly making this disaster the supposed next one turned into "Double Disaster."

Two types of disasters erupting at once; this is unprecedented.

"The first one was a snow disaster, trapping survivors in shelters, testing the ability to gather food and various hands-on skills. The second one was an earthquake, forcing survivors out from the safe shelters to face the dangerous mutated creatures outside, testing their wisdom and fighting skills... will the third one be a combination of both?"

Lin Yue speculated, having already figured out a pattern the system follows.

Eliminate those unsuitable for survival in this world and keep the smartest and strongest, with disasters being the best method.

"Pujji~" Bai finished the lamb skewer, burped, and lay beside Lin Yue, seeming quite weary.

Lin Yue petted it, taking out a bed from the Storage Space.

Used to it, can’t change now, even in this stone coffin, it feels the same.

"Bai, you sleep first," Lin Yue decided to wait for the announcement of this disaster’s content today and continue gathering intelligence.

Lately busy with production and exploration, he hadn’t properly checked the group chats. Anyway, he couldn’t do much today, might as well kill some time.

Taking out a large number of arrows from the Storage Space, Lin Yue also took out a yarn ball to tie onto the arrowheads like he did in the Secret Realm.

[You have obtained the "Flammable Arrow" design!]

Oh, figured.

Now it’s easy.

After making three hundred in succession, Lin Yue directly opened the group chat.

Many useless messages from Xia Feihong were piling up again in private messages.

He didn’t even want to respond.

At least before returning to his own shelter, he would definitely not deal with people from that place.

Even if they wanted to trade with him, he didn’t have much in hand for trading now, and wouldn’t trade anyway.

Looked towards the world chat channel.

"Everyone, not to mention that bastard triggering double disaster, but I actually made a new discovery. Those giant creatures seem to only operate within one area; as long as you’re not in that area, it’s no big deal."

"Speak in detail? I was forced to move because of this. If I hadn’t run fast that time, I’d be a heap by now, but luckily I found a shelter in the jungle; otherwise, I’d be sleeping outdoors."

"I second that; that thing is too annoying."

"I noticed this too, those things have large size and great strength, I think even bringing a big cannon might not work. Just stay far away from them; shouldn’t we care about the upcoming announcement?"

"Guessing won’t help, even if you guess it right, so what? I guessed correctly the first time, so did my buddy, and yet that guy still froze to death."

"Indeed, pointless. Why don’t we trade some stuff? I’ve got something nice. Too bad it can only be listed on our group’s trade mall. Wonder when the system will open full group trading? Pic.jpg"

"It’s not withdrawn by system... Damn, can I see this for free?"

"Very white, very big, already rushing."

...

The world channel group were chatting excitedly, Lin Yue learned some crucial knowledge regarding the giant creature near his shelter from it.

Only lingering in one place?

Why do they behave that way, could they be searching for or even guarding something?

He mused over these thoughts, browsed the trade mall and found nothing worth acquiring, then searched through the group chat for any mention by Xia Feihong or Guo Lei.

He ended up finding nothing.

That was probably specially instructed by Liu Kai.

Lin Yue yawned, continued browsing the group chat.

Time passed second by second, only a few seconds left until the disaster announcement!

Both the group chat and world channel were buzzing right now!

Which two types of disasters would it be next?

However, as everyone counted down, the system released the names of the two disasters, plunging the whole Otherworld into absolute silence.

"Combining these two disasters, does the system not want people to live anymore?" Lin Yue couldn’t help but say.
