Chapter 1797: Chapter 1800: Chat About What

While the hundred thousand Iron Cavalry and Dragon Group were busy, Lu Xiaobu was also engaged in preparations.

He was preparing for the attack from the high-end combat force left by the God Slaying Alliance, which is why he didn’t personally go to siege cities and capture territories.

The current Southwest Gourd Island is simply too fragile.

If he was too far away, when those high-end forces arrived, it would almost be instant to plow through the entire Southwest Gourd Island!

Moreover, he wasn’t planning to engage in battle at Gourd Waist.

Otherwise, if it really came to using blood bursts, it wouldn’t be outsiders destroying Gourd Waist, but him destroying it himself.

Thus, he must take the initiative!

According to the intelligence from the inside, the high-end combat force is expected to arrive within two days.

Two Out-of-Body Stage warriors.

According to the inside information, this is because, so far, the God Slaying Alliance still believes Lu Xiaobu’s strength is only at the Nascent Soul level.

So sending two Out-of-Body warriors is already a great acknowledgement of Lu Xiaobu!

Two Out-of-Body warriors naturally pose no challenge for Lu Xiaobu, but he was not just thinking about handling two Out-of-Body warriors.

He had a crazy idea—to take the opportunity while Gourd Island’s high-end forces are concentrated in the Chaotic Land to cut them off at the source!

Silently acquiring the core, and then in turn cultivating the hundred thousand Iron Cavalry.

And to achieve this, these two Out-of-Body Stage warriors are indispensable.

He must capture them silently.

Yes, capture, not kill!

Everyone knows that capturing is much more difficult than killing!

Let alone doing it silently!

"Here we are."

Lu Xiaobu squinted his eyes at the city ahead.

This is the place where he heard one of the Out-of-Body Stage warriors resides.

He hasn’t figured out exactly how to proceed and needs to gather intelligence first.

"System, are you ready?"

Lu Xiaobu looked at the Knight robot behind him.

Ever since he became suspicious of the system, he deliberately avoided using the system’s power.

However, despite saying he wouldn’t use it, he ended up using this power on the hundred thousand Iron Cavalry.

No way around it, the close worry was more pressing than distant concerns.

"Got it, isn’t it just turning into a piece of furniture and gathering info?"

The system said lazily.

Although it had been neglected for some time, it didn’t really mind as it had a lazy nature anyway.

Whether it was neglected or not, it enjoyed itself constantly anyway.

"By the way, aren’t you worried about someone appearing behind me this time?" the system quipped.

Previously, not only Lu Xiaobu was worried, but the system was too.

But since transferring its consciousness to the Knight robot, and not receiving any messages since, it had relaxed a lot.

So much so that it now had time to tease Lu Xiaobu.

"It’s been half a year; if someone were to appear, they would have already. By now, it’s likely they find you unpleasant."

Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes.

"They find me unpleasant?! More like they find you unpleasant! You, the host who never plays by the rules, and yet my apparent level is still just level two."

The system rolled its eyes.

Figuring out the system’s source and directly altering the rules, probably only Lu Xiaobu would do such a thing.

"Level two because you’re too foolish, also, when were you ever level two? Have you leveled up?" Lu Xiaobu asked after pondering.

He didn’t remember the system leveling up!

"I forgot, anyway, currently it’s level two."

The system shrugged.

"Alright, enough nonsense, let’s get going."

Lu Xiaobu kicked the system.

The system lazily prepared to enter the city.

And at this moment.

"Something’s wrong!"

The system suddenly shivered.

"What’s wrong?!"

Lu Xiaobu was stunned.

"There’s another system here!"

The system said with goosebumps, even though it had none as a robot!

"How do you know?"

Lu Xiaobu’s face also changed; this was the first time he’d encountered another system.

"No, not right, to be precise, it’s not a system, but something similar!"

The system cautiously stared around: "Remember, I once mentioned my existence is more like a parasitic dimensional creature in you, and now, I discovered something similar!"

"It’s not the kind of system existence like mine that I’ve seen, but another form!"

Lu Xiaobu frowned deeply: "Where?"

This isn’t a small matter, and since it was discovered, it must be checked out.

Whether good or bad, this matter needs clarity!

"Outside the city! East!"

The system pointed the direction.

Lu Xiaobu swiftly flew out.

As for the original target, it was already out of his consideration.

Soon, following the system’s direction, he reached a small mountain village outside the city.

Without any unnecessary words, Lu Xiaobu immobilized everyone in the village and checked them one by one, letting the system identify each.

Soon, he focused on a 15 or 16-year-old boy.

This was a child from a poor family, with fear in his eyes, likely kidnapped by people from this village!

"Are you sure it’s him?"

Lu Xiaobu sized up the child, frowning as he asked.

No energy fluctuations at all, just a seemingly ordinary child.

"I’m sure, I distinctly felt a familiar aura from him."

The system stared at the child, undeniably affirming.

"Alright, let’s go."

Lu Xiaobu nodded and then quickly took off with the child, finally stopping on a mountain.

The child was completely disoriented, staring fearfully at Lu Xiaobu, not knowing what he intended to do.

"Don’t be afraid."

Lu Xiaobu reassured the child’s emotions and then continued to ask, "Tell me, has anything strange happened to you? Like hearing another voice in your head, for instance."

"N-No, nothing!"

The child denied.

However, this denial made Lu Xiaobu narrow his eyes.

Such childish lying couldn’t fool him.

It really exists!

"Come out and chat."

Lu Xiaobu squinted his eyes again, sending a divine thought into the child’s mind.

In there, he didn’t see anything, but he believed the other side could hear for sure!

No response!

"Come out and chat, it’s better for everyone, don’t you think?"

Lu Xiaobu patiently continued speaking slowly.

Still, no one responded.

Time continued to pass.

Lu Xiaobu, who was usually impatient, demonstrated exceptional patience this time, waiting quietly for the voice to appear.

This issue needed resolution.

The unification of Gourd Island was already on the agenda. Once successful, it would be the official start of the game.

He didn’t want to get stabbed in the back at that time!

After a long while!

Finally!

"What to talk about!"
