Chapter 925: Chapter 346: First News of Mist City (Part 2)
Qiu Yingyue instantly understood that the big-breasted woman was mocking her for being brainless!
"Ah—!"
In her anger, she slapped the corridor railing.
With a thunderous boom, the tiles of the corridor shattered, lightning flickered, and the people around hurriedly stepped back in fear.
Only the bruised Lin Wu approached and asked, "Sister Qiu, what do we do? Zihang has been taken by them."
Qiu Yingyue was burning with anger, but she forced herself to calm down.
She took a deep breath and said, "The fact that they haven’t killed Qin Zihang immediately means there’s still room for negotiation; I will bring him back."
"Go, prepare some Superpower Stones, I’m going to their ship to negotiate for his release!"
"But... Sister Qiu, those Superpower Stones are meant for Mist City."
"I know, but Qin Zihang must be rescued!"
...
Soon, the small boat returned to the Firebird, and Xia Ming, Gao Li, Li Yuejin, Zhang Rongrong, and others quickly came up to meet them.
Kong Sheng quickly pulled up the bound Qin Zihang.
Ding Yan asked, "Liang Yuan, what do we do with this Dark Attribute Superpower User?"
Liang Yuan shook his head, "Keep him for now, and let’s see if we can negotiate any terms with the other side later."
Ding Yan was surprised and quietly asked, "The Professor Li couple has been rescued, what other conditions are needed for the building?"
Liang Yuan glanced over at Li Hanzhong and said, "Who’s to say he might not want to take a few friends with him?"
Ding Yan understood Liang Yuan’s meaning.
She nodded and said, "Then I’ll go talk to Professor Li first, and leave this to you."
Liang Yuan nodded, "Alright, go ahead, I’ll come find you later."
Then Liang Yuan instructed Tu Long and others to interrogate Qin Zihang, primarily to understand the situation at Lishui Garden and the identity of Ms. Qiu.
There wasn’t much else to ask, as Liang Yuan wasn’t very interested in this Lishui Garden.
Now that the Firebird was almost full, even if they wanted to bring more people back to Yangshan, there was no space.
Moreover, the main target, Professor Li Hanzhong, had already been found, so the mission could be considered complete.
Liang Yuan looked at the Lishui Garden; the buildings of the fourth phase stood alone on the water.
Surrounded by flooding, all structures were submerged.
Various items floated on the water, drifting with the waves.
Liang Yuan’s gaze sank, recalling the sight of Linjiang University underwater.
At the gate of Linjiang University lay a giant octopus, emitting a terrifying aura.
It was definitely an existence that had condensed a Genetic Species.
Only such could give him such a terrifying sense of oppression.
But how was this Genetic Species condensed?
Besides relying on the system and spending a Million Points to exchange for a Genetic Species.
Was there another way?
How did these creatures in the flood manage to condense a Genetic Species?
"If we could kill an Awakened Genetic Species monster and dissect it for research, we might uncover the secret."
"But to kill a monster that has awakened a Genetic Species, relying on myself alone is unlikely."
Liang Yuan frowned, realizing that although his Yangshan Shelter had many Superpower Users.
There was no one truly capable of fighting alongside him.
Neither Zhao Kai nor Ding Yan, nor Tu Long or Li Qinghua.
Although they had decent overall strength, none of their Four Major Attributes reached 50 Points.
However, in Lishui Garden, Ms. Qiu, who had the Thunder Superpower, had a speed that reached nearly 50 Points in agility with the aid of the thunder.
Even he, without using the Red Pig Wheel speed skill, could only maintain a similar level.
"That woman’s agility probably doesn’t reach 50 Points, her speed comes from the Thunder Superpower boost."
"With proper training, she could become a formidable fighter."
Liang Yuan mused, but he knew it was unlikely to recruit Ms. Qiu.
She was already a leader with her own group of followers.
In the Lishui Garden buildings, she must have some form of production capabilities.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have refused his rescue invitation without hesitation.
"Unless the rain continues and the floodwaters rise, completely submerging her building."
"Maybe that’s why, knowing Li Hanzhong’s identity, she wants to keep him to build a ship for her?"
Thoughts flickered through Liang Yuan’s mind as Tu Long and Han Xiangman approached.
"Mr. Liang, we’ve found out, the person we caught is named Qin Zihang."
"According to his account, Lishui Garden was originally controlled by a man named Qiu Gongrong, and Ms. Qiu is Qiu Gongrong’s daughter, her real name is Qiu Yingyue."
"Qiu Yingyue is a Thunder Superpower User, very powerful, but she ascended quickly. Originally, her father controlled all of Lishui Garden."
"However, a few months ago, her father left to find supplies and accidentally entered a place called Mist City, causing a brief period of chaos here."
"Qiu Yingyue, relying on her strong superpower, quickly took control, but several strong Superpower Users in the other buildings refuse to accept her."
"These Superpower Users are quite capable, and Qiu Yingyue hasn’t managed to reclaim the territory in a short time, now she holds just a dozen nearby buildings."
After Tu Long finished speaking, Liang Yuan immediately picked up on the information in his words.
"Mist City?"
This time it was Han Xiangman who answered.
"I asked this Qin Zihang; Mist City is located on a swampy area of flood several kilometers from here."
"The area is shrouded in mist, and it’s said there’s a city floating on the water inside."
"Qiu Yingyue’s father, Qiu Gongrong, accidentally entered and became trapped there, sending letters home every week or so."
"The letters ask Qiu Yingyue to prepare supplies and Superpower Stones outside, as he is trying to join Mist City."
"It sounds like this Mist City is a very powerful force, having built a city."
Han Xiangman’s words made Liang Yuan’s expression serious.
He immediately recalled the submarine he accidentally discovered underwater at Linjiang University!
"Could that submarine be the research result of this Mist City?"
Liang Yuan quickly asked, "Can he tell us the exact location of Mist City?"
Han Xiangman shook her head, "He doesn’t know, it seems only Qiu Yingyue knows about it."
"After all, it’s several kilometers from here, and only Qiu Yingyue’s speed can allow her to run directly over the water to find it."
"Mr. Liang, do you want to go to Mist City?" Tu Long couldn’t help asking.
His eyes also showed a glimmer of excitement.
Obviously, he was also very interested in Mist City.
Liang Yuan nodded slightly, "I suspect the submarine I saw underwater belongs to this so-called Mist City."
Hearing this, Tu Long and Han Xiangman were both surprised.
Tu Long said, "Could it be that Mist City really is a very strong city?"
Han Xiangman also frowned, "If they can develop a submarine, their technological level is far beyond our Yangshan."
Liang Yuan nodded, "So I also want to see what kind of place this Mist City is."
Tu Long and Han Xiangman couldn’t help but nod.
The Yangshan Shelter was built from nothing, step by step, seen as a miracle by everyone.
Yet suddenly, there appeared another shelter that developed faster and more prosperously than Yangshan Shelter.
They found it a little unbelievable and were equally curious.
What could such a shelter be like?
"But we still don’t know the location of this shelter." Tu Long said.
Liang Yuan smiled, "No worries, doesn’t that Ms. Qiu Yingyue know?"
Upon hearing this, Tu Long’s eyes lit up.
"Right, a life for information, she’d probably agree." Tu Long smiled.
Liang Yuan stood up and said, "Alright, keep an eye on Qin Zihang, I’ll go check on Professor Li and his wife."
Han Xiangman hurriedly said, "Mr. Liang, Professor Li’s wife has severe arthritis, and we’ve sent her to Wang An for treatment."
"Professor Li and his wife have gone to Bamboo House No. 1 and aren’t in the captain’s cabin anymore."
Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan nodded slightly, "Got it."
He then turned in the direction of Bamboo House No. 1.
