To be honest, Xu Xin really wanted to go with her.
That’s District 1, territory he’s never set foot in before.
But rembering Xu Ying’s instructions, to not go out before the world tree has fully grown, and that the creature sent people to kill him...
He’s actually not very worried about sothing happening. At least he thinks that staying around Crystal City, or within the 188th district under the influence of the world tree, shouldn’t be a problem.
But Shi Wanyun is going to District 1.
District 1 is not protected by the world tree or Crystal City, and situations like Shi Wanyun’s have happened there.
If he goes, it’s basically walking into a trap.
Moreover, although Shi Wanyun can teleport, she must rely on a teleportation device.
In other words, she can only teleport back to her treehouse, or... to that bizarre world tree on the other side of Earth.
If she wants to et with other powerhouses in District 1, she definitely needs to use the transmission array there, teleporting between transmission arrays in District 1.
And the transmission array there is completely controlled by the other side. If he dares to use it...
Who knows if he would be sabotaged and sent to so unknown place.
Now, when that half-human, half-alien creature covered in eyes clearly wants to kill him, he absolutely cannot run around.
"...I won’t go with you, but you can’t go alone. After all, your situation isn’t very optimistic right now."
Xu Xin looked at Shi Wanyun who was drawing teleportation array patterns with mutant creature blood on the ground.
"So, you’re afraid I’ll run?" Shi Wanyun paused her hand movent, looking up at him.
"I said, I already trust you." Xu Xin waved his hand, "But now, you’re basically a... traitor to them."
"...You’re right." Shi Wanyun continued drawing teleportation array patterns, "But I don’t think the creature would go to such lengths for soone like ."
"From Number 5’s attitude, you’re not just anyone but an indispensable genius." Xu Xin shook his head.
Then he swiped open his watch and called Lou Fei’Er, explaining the situation to her.
"Escort Shi Wanyun to District 1? Sure, no problem!" Lou Fei’Er agreed imdiately.
"Is Jin Yue with you?"
"Yes, do you want her to co too?"
"Yeah, you two have both injected the gene serum and have bodies with mutant bloodlines, so you two are the most suitable."
"What about Xiaotaozi? Should she co too?" Lou Fei’Er asked.
"Exactly! I want to go too!" Zeng Tao’s voice ca from the other side, clearly showing they were all together, "I’ll go crazy if I stay here, let go too!"
"You can’t." Xu Xin rejected her bluntly, "You haven’t injected the gene serum yet, and don’t forget, you have an important task."
She’s supposed to assist Ma Hongwei in creating portable heavy thermal weapons!
Besides, there’s another reason.
He chose Lou Fei’Er and Jin Yue because Yingying confird Lou Fei’Er is not part of their team, and Jin Yue is basically impossible to be.
The possibility that the two of them are targeted by alien invaders is the smallest, and their respective districts are also the least dangerous.
But Zeng Tao herself has special abilities, and she might be like Qin Fu, a mber of the research team in that tiline.
If she goes, there might be unnecessary trouble.
"Oh..." Zeng Tao let out a sowhat disappointed sound, "Alright, I got it..."
"So should we head out now?" Lou Fei’Er’s voice held a hint of excitent, probably because she found going to District 1 very thrilling. Her tone was already sowhat impatient.
"This isn’t a vacation." Xu Xin warned, "Your operation this ti is dangerous, so be careful. You and Jin Yue get ready, and once you’re ready, co..."
He glanced at Shi Wanyun.
Shi Wanyun was still crouched down drawing teleportation array patterns, not lifting her head, she said softly, "Let them co here, I’ll take them to my treehouse first."
"Just co to my treehouse, Shi Wanyun will lead you."
"Okay, once we’re ready, we’ll co!"
After disconnecting, Xu Xin called Ji Chaoyang, and explained the situation to him.
"That’s it. How are things on your end?" Xu Xin asked.
"I’ve already inford all survivors through the district channel that the whole of 188th district is under the protection of the world tree, and they can co and seek refuge with us anyti. Most of them are now tempted and ready to take action.
For District 1, I’ve issued the sa invitation on the alliance channel, and inford them of our advantages here. Survivors from District 1 are also starting to get restless."
Ji Chaoyang’s tone was noticeably more relaxed than before.
"...So it ans we’re just short a catalyst." Xu Xin looked at Shi Wanyun still drawing teleportation array patterns.
"Yes, hopefully Shi Wanyun can succeed."
When ending the call, Shi Wanyun happened to finish the last stroke of the teleportation array patterns, stood up, and sat on the sofa without further actions.
"Don’t you need to prepare sothing?" Xu Xin asked her.
"? No need." Shi Wanyun shook her head slightly, "In my treehouse, I have everything."
