And the counterasure of that White Rock City Lord was—
Using refugees as human sacrifices, trying to use them to persuade the Tier Seven Mutated Giant Turtle to leave.
After all...
As long as the Mutant Beast is full, it loses its desire to attack White Rock City.
This is common knowledge that countless Refuge City Lords know well and exploit on the Wasteland.
"Heh—"
Yu Jin laughed.
He didn’t rush to act, just stood on top of the Mutated Giant Turtle’s head.
He even...
Deliberately let the Giant Turtle ’roar’ a couple of tis.
Dong—
Dong dong—!
The Turtle’s angry roar made even more refugees get thrown out.
In the end.
The refugees were even forced to queue up, flooding out one by one through the cracks in the city gate like zombies.
Ti crept by.
It didn’t take long.
The entrance to the Refuge City was packed with silhouettes.
Looking out, there were nearly a hundred thousand refugees.
"Yu City Lord!"
"There’s less than a hundred thousand refugees in all of White Rock City..."
"They’re tossing every refugee out, especially those who ca with us from Blue Star, just to die!"
Yu Wenbo shouted, his tone furious beyond words.
Yu Jin crossed his arms and watched quietly.
In the end.
He even shouted into White Rock City.
"Any more?"
Yu Jin’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried to every corner of White Rock City.
The City Lord and others inside instantly panicked.
"Speaks human language, has intelligence—really a high-tier Infected Body!"
"Though not sure why he’s not black..."
"But an Infected Body that makes that Tier Seven Turtle so obedient is at least Tier Seven, maybe even Tier Eight!"
The White Rock City Lord’s face went pale.
After barely two seconds of hesitation.
He made a decision.
"Throw them out!"
"Except the direct Guard Team, toss all the wretches out!"
"As long as they’re full, they’ll leave and White Rock City’s crisis will be over!"
Dong—!
Dong dong—!
Outside White Rock City.
More refugees got thrown out.
These even included quite a few ’subordinates’ of the original White Rock City.
Loyal to the City Lord, they were now suffering the sa sacrificial fate as the other refugees when crisis struck.
"That’s it?"
After waiting a few more minutes, seeing no more refugees get tossed out from inside the city.
Yu Jin nodded slightly to himself.
To be sure, he activated ’Light Touch’ and checked the situation inside.
Inside White Rock City, less than a thousand people remained.
And all of these people radiated Evolver energy.
Obviously, the ones left are the City Lord’s direct subordinates, the crew he kept after the ruthless purge.
"Good!"
Yu Jin nodded, expressing his approval.
This way, he could finally go all out and experint with his Ability with no pressure.
"Y-Yu City Lord?"
"Are we starting?"
Yu Wenbo was a bit nervous now, but also excited.
"Should I get down?"
"Let Lord Turtle go smash the gate?"
Yu Wenbo asked.
Yu Jin shook his head.
Next mont.
He raised his right hand, pointing at White Rock City.
"I’ll break the city gate first."
"After that, I’ll politely ask White Rock City Lord a few things."
Yu Jin mumbled to himself.
"?"
"You...?"
Yu Wenbo looked confused.
Vmmmm—!
Next second.
Yu Wenbo heard the air around them shaking violently.
He saw...
Countless ’light particles’ from all directions converging towards Yu Jin.
More precisely—
All gathering at his extended slender finger.
At this mont.
Yu Wenbo felt that ti was moving really fast, but also as if it had slowed down.
After a brief trance.
He blankly realized—the sky was bright now.
"?"
Yu Wenbo looked up at the sky.
The Wasteland World’s ’sun’ was still blocked by the thick gray clouds.
He looked down, then at Yu Jin.
And then...
He saw the most unforgettable sight of his life!
At Yu Jin’s fingertip, a tiny luminous dot appeared.
That dot was as small as a grain of rice, yet burst with light far brighter than the sun above!
Vmmmm—!
In just an instant.
The light dot ballooned rapidly, expanding like a popped balloon!
Vmmmm—!
Yu Wenbo didn’t even have ti to discern what was happening in that single second.
All he saw was—
A light pillar, one hundred ters wide, shot from Yu Jin’s fingertip!
Whoosh—!
The light pillar roared forth.
In a split second.
It slamd straight onto the tightly closed White Rock City gate.
Boom—!
The massive steel-forged gate couldn’t hold for even a thousandth of a second, lted instantly by the ’Light’.
After that...
The thousand-so figures gathered behind the gate, in front of the City Lord’s Mansion, were swallowed up by the pillar of light.
"Ah—"
Yu Wenbo saw the Tier Five City Lord he’d always looked up to didn’t even get to scream, turning to nothing beneath the ’light pillar.’
The hundred-ter pillar of light pierced through White Rock Sanctuary City like a bullet, lting and obliterating everything in its path!
For dozens of miles around, everything lost its color under that dazzling brilliance!
"Wuuu..."
The Tier Seven Mutated Giant Turtle underfoot trembled all over.
"..."
Yu Jin watched and sighed.
He swore—
He truly only ant to blast open the city gate, not vaporize people as well.
"I didn’t even use much strength..."
Yu Jin sounded a bit regretful.
He’d deliberately chosen the weakest Tier One Ability, ’Laser’, and used only a tenth of its power.
"What a pity."
"I really wanted to ask how you upgrade a Refuge City..."
Yu Jin muttered as he looked ahead.
Behind the Refuge City gate, there was no sign of the White Rock City Lord left.
So people, once missed, are gone forever.
On the other side.
Yu Wenbo listened blankly to Yu Jin’s muttering, completely stupefied.
Damn...
White Rock City was blasted through, and you’re calling that ’not using much strength’?
"Yu Wenbo."
Yu Jin called out.
Thump—!
Yu Wenbo’s knees buckled, and he knelt instantly.
"..."
Yu Jin was a bit speechless but didn’t want to waste ti.
Monts ago, he suddenly got a call from Neil—the Dawn City was in trouble.
So, he needed to return to Dawn City imdiately.
"Take care of White Rock City for for now."
"Xiaoming, you help him."
Yu Jin glanced at Yu Wenbo and the Tier Seven Mutated Turtle, making the arrangents.
"Mm mm!"
One person, one turtle, nodding rapidly.
And Yu Jin, took a step forward.
Flying Thunder God!
Boom—!
Thunder rumbled.
His figure vanished at the horizon’s edge in an instant.
Before leaving.
He also rembered to flash a ’Purifying Light’ to the dumbfounded refugees outside the gate.
And dropped a ’Coordinate Imprint’ on the spot, so he could shuttle back anyti.
Atop the Giant Turtle’s head.
Yu Wenbo stared at the direction Yu Jin vanished, speechless for a long ti.
Stiff as a marionette, he turned his head to look toward the hundred-ter-wide hole blasted by ’Light’ in White Rock City.
And...
The almost hundred thousand refugees outside the gate, even more bewildered than him.
After a long ti.
Yu Wenbo bowed his head, looking down at his feet.
He strongly doubted his life choices.
Everyone just crossed over from Blue Star.
He hadn’t awakened yet, but Yu Jin looked like he’s already Max Level?
"Brother Gui..."
"Any thoughts?"
Tier Seven Mutated Turtle Xiaoming whimpered, answering softly:
"Turtle... scared..."
