underground city
The people were filled with despair. They were just waiting to die. Everyone was hungry and had symptoms of malnutrition.
“We… are really going to die?”
An old woman spoke up with a tired expression on her face. She looked at the children in her care. Children now have thin bodies. They hadn't eaten for days. The children's bodies were getting weaker and weaker. Without doing anything, all the children would die.
The old woman tried to get up from the chair. Wants to go out and get at least something for the kids to eat in order to survive another day. But the truth was cruel. All the spared food was distributed and already eaten. The water that existed now had dried up.
The frail old woman was unable to find food and water. not only that her meager food and water was also stolen from her too.
At this time people have to do everything for the survival of themselves and their families. No one paid any attention to her orphanage.
Her grandson-in-law, Agalta, still had given her his share of food and water with her. But what would be enough for just one person's water and food?
The old woman slowly collapsed to the ground. She was hungry and thirsty. It wasn't little children under her care who would leave this world first. But it's her.
“Malinna…”
She thought of her granddaughter who had died. She wanted to see her granddaughter one more time before she died.
And while the old woman was about to leave this world. She could feel someone injecting something into her body.
She will never forget what she saw before her; it was her granddaughter's face smiling at her.
“Malinna is back, Grandma. Don't worry, Malinna will take care of you and the children herself.”
The old woman heard what her beloved granddaughter said. She smiled before falling asleep from exhaustion.
Agalta only looked at the old woman and his wife Malinna with a smile. He didn't care if she was a ghost or a spirit. She is still his wife.
After Malinna saved the old woman The underground city was lit up again. Everything seems to be going well.
Chen Ming and Ao Ertian returned to control room number seven with Agalta and the others.
When Chen Ming arrived back in the control room, he immediately ordered the system to repair the reactor. The reactor only needed a few hours to repair as it was partially damaged.
While the reactor is doing self-repair Agalta then invites Chen Ming and Ao Ertian to go down to the Underground City with him. Of course, the two did not deny it. Both were interested in the underground city.
There are two ways to go down to the underground city. The first way is to walk down a walkway that has been created which takes quite a long time. The second method is to use the freight elevator.
The freight elevator is quite large. can carry hundreds of tons of weight This elevator was made It wasn't there in the first place before the ship crashed. Chen Ming and Ao Ertian could recognize it because the appearance of the elevator was completely different from the appearance of the control room.
Agalta led the two of them into the elevator leading down to the underground city. Agalta brought with him all the food he could bring back on the first trip.
The food in the first round was enough for everyone in the city to eat until they were full. and while the freight elevator was about to close But just before the elevator closed, Agalta heard someone shouting at him. Agalta's eyes opened wide. He remembered the voice of the person who called him well. He quickly turned to find the source of the sound. Did he see someone flying? come his way
The elevator door is about to close. Agalta couldn't stop the elevator door. He now looked panicked. It was as if he was about to lose something.
“Stop it da*n it!”
Agalta tried to press the elevator door stop button. But it's too late Chen Ming looked at Agalta before speaking.
"Don't worry, this door won't stop you."
Agalta looked at Chen Ming. He wanted to know what he meant.
Chen Ming did not respond to his question. He looked behind Agalta. Discussion now seems to be pointless.
‘It seems that Agalta and the others don't have much knowledge of spirits. They probably don't know that spirits can travel almost anywhere without a problem.'
Seeing that Chen Ming didn't say anything further. Agalta wanted to say something. But before he could ask anything more. He could feel someone hugging him from behind.
He felt goosebumps rising. He quickly turned around, but there was no one there.
He turned around again and was shocked to see a woman's face appear before him.
“M-Malinna!”
The heart almost stopped beating. Malinna, seeing Agalta almost screaming, couldn't help but laugh.
“Haha, Agalta, not long ago when we saw each other, since when did you become a young chicken like this?”
Agalta did not reply to Malinna who laughed at him. Instead, he laughed with tears. He jumped and hugged Malinna with joy. He couldn’t believe that he would meet the love of his life again!
“You, you, you are not dead, Malinna!”
Malinna looked at Agalta before shaking her head and hugging him.
“I am already dead, Agalta. You know..."
“I don't care, you're still here. That's more than enough.”
For him, it didn't matter if she was dead or not. She was now with him and he was embracing her. Although her body was not as warm as before.
The two hugged each other until they were satisfied. The two realized that in this elevator there were not only two of them. Malinna and Agalta hurriedly looked at Chen Ming and Ao Ertian. They were afraid that they would do something bad and cause their dissatisfaction. However, it seems that the two are not thinking much about it.
Agalta and Malinna were relieved to see that Chen Ming and Ao Ertian didn’t think too much of it. and are talking to each other.
Agalta and Malinna didn't know what they were talking about. Because both use different languages from both of them. Chen Ming and Ao Ertian were currently speaking Chinese. which it is considered an ancient language of high-human It is a language that has been lost over time.
The three and one spirit descended to the bottom that was the pathway leading to the Underground City. Chen Ming looked around with interest. He looked upward with his dragon eyes. He could easily see in the dark. At the top were dozens of large lanterns. However, it cannot work due to insufficient power supply.
Chen Ming then looked at the corridor. The corridor was lit by LED lamps. making it easy to see the walkway Chen Ming saw something moving around with speed.
"Huh"
Chen Ming could clearly see it even though it was moving around at such a speed.
They are big rats. Its size is the same as a cat. Their level was extremely low. They were not even dangerous for Qi Foundation Stage practitioners.
Chen Ming ignored them before walking towards the city in front of him. Ao Ertian was interested in the garbage pile. He told Chen Ming that these trash piles were full of materials that he could use to make weapons and armor. It will enhance everyone's fighting abilities.
Chen Ming looked at Ao Ertian. He had never thought that Ao Ertian would be able to craft weapons and armor. He asked why Ao Ertian didn't tell him. The answer he got back was
"Well, you didn't ask."
Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Ao Ertian was later separated from the group. He headed towards the trash pile with sparkling eyes. He seemed to have found an enormous amount of treasure from within these piles of trash.
Chen Ming, Agalta and Malinna then headed for the underground city. Chen Ming was now counting the number of people. He found that there were more than ten thousand people here.
'If I can gather all the people here I will only be missing a few tens of thousands of people before I complete the mission.’
