Ark Journey

The glass on the top floor of the command tower was suddenly removed violently, and Xue Zhi and her group floated in along with the cold wind from Beiyuan.

"I suggest you all surrender. I can give you a more decent..."

Before Xue Zhi could finish her words, several people in police uniforms thrust their spears at her, but were then blocked a few meters away by telekinesis.

He shook his head and did not continue.

Countless pieces of mud appeared from all over the command tower, fixing everyone in place. Driven by telekinesis, everyone's hands were involuntarily put behind their backs, and then handcuffs made of mud also wrapped their hands completely.

"Got it. Nothing has been damaged so far. See if you can take control of the city."

"Yes."

Several people walked out from behind Xue Zhi. The original staff members glared at them and yelled at them. Some even tried to pull their legs out of the mud, but it was useless.

"Sukabulie! Damn infected!"

"You traitors!"

One of the older men sneered and showed the Originium crystal on his wrist.

"It was Ursus who threw us into the mines to die. We are not traitors. If anything, she was the one who betrayed us!"

"you!"

This statement could not be refuted, because the fault really lay with Ursus, and the faces of those who had just started cursing instantly turned purple.

When the few people saw the faces of their colleagues, they didn't say anything else. They walked to the operating table, checked some parameters and the working conditions of the machine, and then turned back to Xue Zhi and asked:

"The mobile city is working fine. Do you want to stop?"

“Are there any requirements to restart it?”

"A mobile city of this level doesn't need anything to assist in launching it."

"Then let's stop it first. The more fuel you can save, the better."

"Yes."

With the pressing of a button, a large number of complex electrical signals were transmitted along the circuit to the entire body of this big guy, and the idling sound of the tracks that could be heard continuously began to slow down.

Unable to say anything to their compatriots, the operators turned their anger towards Xue Zhi, who was obviously not a local.

"You are a spy from Yan Country!"

Some people even spit at Xue Zhi.

Xue Zhi glanced at those people who were cursing, then disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of the person who spit at him.

A punch was thrown, hitting him right in the face. The punch almost completely broke his nose. Red and white blood flowed all over the ground from the wound, and even the mud that fixed his feet was cracked.

The soil reappeared and fixed the man to the ground. Xue Zhi's cold eyes swept over everyone in front of him. Under the pressure of mental power, everyone who looked at him felt great fear.

"I don't really like killing innocent people. Keep quiet and I can keep you alive."

After saying this, another him suddenly appeared next to Xue Zhi, but this time there was a 4 written behind him.

"You guys just watch here. I noticed someone was destroying the city. Go ahead."

After saying a few words to the person who was checking the data, Xue Zhi flew out of the window.

On the ground, Frost Star, who had just eliminated a group of defenders, was receiving treatment from his clone.

The defenders who were sent to guard the mobile city were indeed quite capable. Just now, one of them broke through the snow monster's defense and cut a deep wound on Froststar's body. If he could withstand the magic attack for even half a second, he might be able to cut Froststar again and make her temporarily lose her combat ability. Unfortunately, there is no if.

A long and narrow knife wound extended from Frost Star's left waist to her right shoulder, almost tearing through all her clothes and armor.

Enduring the itching and pain as the wound healed, Shuangxing asked Xue Zhi who was treating her wound.

"What should I call you? Xue Zhi's clone number one?"

"I am Xue Zhi herself. Everyone is no different from me. You can think of it as reading a book while eating, but I can do more and be better at it."

Looking down at the small part of her chest that was exposed, Frost Star sighed.

"Is that so? I hope Alina won't mind."

Speak of the devil, and here comes Alina, with dozens of people.

"Why are you still thinking about these things? As a doctor, I don't care about these things. Your safety is more important than anything else. There should be a military camp ahead. We need to concentrate our strength now. What's the situation, Froststar?"

Froststar, whose wounds had healed, pulled a piece of clothing from the corpse on the ground and put it on, and nodded.

"It's not a big problem."

"That's good."

Just as the Yeti and Alina's group joined forces to attack the military camp ahead, the patriots fighting on the other side pulled out their weapons from a collapsed house.

The shield guard behind him whispered:

"Captain, you've destroyed another house."

"It's not a big problem. If it doesn't work, I will rebuild it myself."

Xue Zhi's clone standing among them interrupted.

"Okay, these are irrelevant. We can't live in so many houses now."

"you're right."

Just as the clones were active in every corner of the battlefield, Xue Zhi's real body flew into the supporting layer of this mobile city at an extremely fast speed.

He saw the location of those who were destroying the city and the fastest way to get there.

Somewhere, a man was directing his men to use various things to destroy the equipment in front of them. Not far away, someone was even pushing a bucket of unknown water towards an engine.

"Destroy these devices! Then we retreat! The engine just stopped, the city may be captured by the infected! We need to take the intelligence out!"

"Yes!"

Then, those who were preparing for a big fight found that a thick layer of mud appeared from somewhere and fixed their feet.

The young man's voice came with the wind.

"You can't leave."

When Xue Zhi appeared here, he noticed the unknown device that was emitting sparks at first glance.

"Why are you so harsh on my mobile city?"

This somewhat shameless remark directly drove the engineers' curse words down their throats.

"..."

"Fortunately, I can fix it."

Ignoring the awkward looks on those people's faces, Xue Zhi walked to the damaged equipment and started operating the time core.

Chapter 38: Arresting People Everywhere

"I admire the first person who started destroying the moving city."

"Because it might not be occupied."

“People must live on mobile cities.”

"Give us this moving city."

"It's you."

"Hello, engineers."

"This mobile city is your weakness."

"Fate has led us to this mobile city."

"I feel it now."

"I feel the location of the destruction."

“The broken gears are starting to mesh again.”

"Understand the spell."

"Time is starting to go backwards."

The dazzling light filled the entire preparation room.

Time began to flow backwards, and the various original components that were broken on the ground flew back to their proper positions strangely, restoring the damaged instruments to wholeness.

A small piece of gray fragment disappeared in Xue Zhi's palm. He had just used the fragments of the kingdom to ensure that the scope of time reversal would not expand.

"It's done."

The engineers in charge of the maintenance room stared at the intact equipment in amazement. They were all convinced that they had destroyed them with their own hands a few minutes ago.

"You still have some use, we need to find a place to lock you up first."

Xue Zhi hooked his fingers, and the mud immediately turned into handcuffs and leg irons. Then these people floated behind him and flew outside with him.

Because their maintenance room was at the innermost part, Xue Zhi didn't take the people he met on the road with him because he thought they were in the way, so he just left them there. Now they were joining the team behind him one by one.

"You were caught too?"

"Well, I just heard a whoosh, and then I was frozen in place. Someone just tried to use Originium techniques to burn the mud, but it was useless except for burning their feet."

"Sokka, who is this person?"

Ignoring the conversation between those people, Xue Zhi was currently thinking about how to deal with so many people.

After leaving the supporting layer, he flew to the place where the Patriot had just led the Shield Guard. Many houses here had collapsed, leaving a vacant space.

Xue Zhi put the captured people into their original groups and quickly built a temporary prison with the help of the collapsed bricks and stones.

A huge matchbox with rooms divided inside was completed in an instant, and Xue Zhi stuffed the people into it one by one in the order in which they were captured.

"Stay here, we'll deal with you once we've dealt with the rest of the resistance."

After placing the fluorite for lighting, reinforcing the matchbox with a protective core, uncuffing those people, and throwing a few boxes of water into each room, Xue Zhi flew away without looking back regardless of what those people shouted. He still had many people to capture.

The people trapped downstairs looked at each other in bewilderment. They had seen with their own eyes how the house was built. How could that man be so sure that they would not cause any trouble?

"He just left like that? Were we surprised that something like this could trap us?"

"And they didn't search us. I even had a fully-charged small drill in my bag."

"What can this broken mud house block? I'm afraid a hole can be smashed in it with just one punch."

After looking at each other again, those people took action, and then nothing happened. The same thing happened in every small room.

The intact earth wall shone with golden light. The overheated tools were thrown to the ground, and the young engineer, who was full of confidence just now, sat on the ground dejectedly.

"Sokka! That's not scientific!"

An older engineer took a sip of the water Xue Zhi gave him and said:

"It's still quite scientific, but what kind of spell is this? It seems to be very useful."

These words instantly made several people alert.

"Wait, you're planning treason!"

But he didn't care much about it, or maybe he was just helpless.

"Don't say that. We are helpless now. We have to survive first. You have parents too. I have a wife and a newborn child at home. And the fact that those infected people didn't kill me right away proves that they still have some sense and are not crazy. Maybe I can persuade them to surrender?"

Another older engineer added from a corner of the room:

"There's no need to think about the last one. We've been to so many mines, and I believe we've seen a lot of how the country treats the infected. If they were rescued from the mines, or told about what happened there, I don't think anyone would surrender."

"That's right. Let's think about how to survive first. That person just said that we are still somewhat useful. He probably needs our knowledge. After all, maintaining a mobile city is not an easy task."

"Yes, these are our bargaining chips. I hope we can use them. How about we collude first?"

"it is good."

After the two older and more experienced engineers started talking, the young people had no room to interrupt. In some ways, they were all apprentices of the two men, and they were also tired after working hard against the wall for so long.

The matchboxes were constantly expanding, and Xue Zhi kept arresting people in various parts of the mobile city. In order to distinguish these people, signs were hung on the matchboxes in different areas.

Xue Zhi even found a man who broke his leg after jumping to the ground and brought him back after healing him. I really don’t know how he managed to survive at such a high place.

Inside a matchbox, several people looked in surprise at their companions who had noticed something was wrong and jumped off the mobile city in advance to pass on the information.

"Nomanov, you are still alive!?"
