Chapter 71 Slicing Warning

This kills two birds with one stone, simultaneously solving both the dungeon's predicament and the monsters.

That's something.

Yu Miaomiao didn't care what the onlookers thought at this moment. She calmly walked through the crowd and entered the mission hall.

Submit the task.

The task completion point is determined by the task description.

If the task has a clearly designated delivery location, such as a research institute, then you should go to the research institute to deliver the task.

If no specific location is designated, you can submit the task in the task lobby.

Lu An and Xu Nanwei, who had just woken up, stared at the Ya Jing payment on their bracelets, somewhat bewildered.

The reward of sub-crystal points for submitting computer tasks to the research institute didn't match up. After checking the task records on the bracelet, I realized that this guy had taken on another strange task.

But none of that matters. This is what they call "passive" income, it's so appealing!

Before Yu Miaomiao could even leave the mission hall, she was stopped by Chu Bai and his armed forces.

"Come with us."

The crisis has been temporarily averted, but the monster Li Yi is still in her space, so this matter is not over yet.

Yu Miaomiao was about to say that it was really unnecessary when she met Chu Bai's unquestionable gaze.

So be it. I'm flexible and adaptable. Besides, I haven't done anything wrong.

Inside the base's underground city control center

That's the ideal, but in reality, it's definitely more dilapidated and old, in a state of chaos after just experiencing an earthquake.

When Yu Miaomiao followed Chu Bai inside, Yang Silu was standing in front of the underground distribution map of the control center, discussing something with the people around him.

Upon seeing Yu Miaomiao enter, they did not avoid her, but instead engaged in an even more heated discussion.

Not long after, He Liang was also brought into the conference room by Chen Haohua.

"The next focus of our work is this area. Once this area is opened up, the entire underground city will have eight interconnected exits."

"But only one exit is open now, the other exits are still blocked by vines, unless they are broken down."

Upon hearing this, Yang Silu immediately smiled and looked at the person standing opposite him.

Pointing at Yu Miaomiao and He Liang, he said to the man, "Chief Engineer Lin, there's always a way. Didn't we find you some helpers? These two are the ones who will open Gate Number One this time."

He Liang has some social anxiety and is not used to being praised or scrutinized. He was so embarrassed that he kept scratching his head, and it felt like he was about to disappear into the shadows.

Yu Miaomiao didn't react much; she could probably guess what was going on.

She didn't object to assisting the base's underground city in completing its mission; after all, everyone has a responsibility for the rise and fall of a nation.

Building a complete underground city would improve their lives in the apocalypse, and it doesn't conflict with her interests.

Moreover, she was really happy living in the underground city during this time. If she had been able to come here with Lu An in her previous life, perhaps she could have lived a good life too.

It is truly remarkable that the underground military can manage a base of 300,000 people in such a way.

"Those two people opened Gate Number One?"

Lin Muzhi was not at the scene at the time; he was in the underground factory where the excavator was being modified, so he did not witness that scene.

He looked at the two young men in front of him, somewhat incredulous.

The vines were tightly coiled and, more importantly, quite tough; they were impervious to swords and spears, and fire was useless against them, making them extremely difficult to deal with.

"Why do you always disagree with me, old man? What time is it? Do you think I'm going to argue with you? Anyway, you just focus on modifying and opening up the connecting passages in the underground city. Don't worry about the doors."

Lin Muzhi waved his hand to indicate that he understood, glanced at his watch with only the minute and second hands moving, and said, "Alright, I'll go back and make the arrangements now. I'm leaving first."

Yang Silu nodded upon hearing this and gestured to his secretary to escort Li Muzhi out.

Turning around, he smiled at Yu Miaomiao and He Liang, "You don't have any objections, right? If you have any requests, you can make them to the base. I'll do my best to fulfill them within my capabilities."

Yu Miaomiao knew in her heart that Yang Silu was not as simple as he appeared. He was a big shot who could stand with the leaders.

Talking to someone like that would probably expose Yu Miaomiao's little schemes, so she decided not to hide them anymore.

Why don't you ask me where that monster went?

"Isn't it in your space?" Yang Silu replied with a smile, seemingly unconcerned about the monster being in Yu Miaomiao's space. "I imagine you wouldn't let it go out of control in your space, would you?"

Now Yu Miaomiao understood. The base's underground city didn't have the resources to deal with or control the monster, so they simply let it go and passed the problem directly to Yu Miaomiao. Moreover, Yang Silu was almost certain that she wasn't going to hand over the monster either.

After all, although Li Yi is insane, his poison and corrosive properties are really effective against some tough mutant plants.

"The Underground City can discuss a long-term cooperation with you. You will be responsible for managing Li Yi, and we will provide you with sub-crystals every month. Of course, if you are unwilling, you can hand them over to us at any time, and we will find a way. At worst, we can slice them for research. I think Dr. Ye has the ability to do that."

It was only then that Yu Miaomiao noticed a familiar figure among the busy crowd: Ye Jian.

It's true that those who are capable are always busy; I always see him working.

"Okay." Since the base is being so generous, she will certainly cherish this ration.

If she no longer wants that monster, she can send over the slices later; she still trusts Boss Ye's abilities.

As for the task of assisting the dungeon in dealing with the mutated vines, after He Liang expressed that he had no objection, Yu Miaomiao also shrugged, she had no objection either, after all, it was not a difficult task for her.

After leaving the central control center and arranging a time for He Liang to come over for hot pot on the weekend, Yu Miaomiao slipped into her spatial dimension.

Now it's time to fool the monster.

Upon arriving at the glass house, Yu Miaomiao was surprised to find that although Li Yi still retained the appearance of a monster, he had returned to a size similar to that of a human.

It seems that the monster's growth by absorbing the energy from the ammunition is only temporary, and it will revert to its original state after the duration ends.

Upon seeing that it was Yu Miaomiao, Li Yi began to roar incessantly again, pounding on the glass with both arms. Yu Miaomiao was not in a hurry; she took a banana, sat down in front of the glass room, and quietly watched Li Yi go crazy.

Li Yi smashed the glass until he was exhausted, but it was undamaged, so he gave up.

She puffed up her cheeks and sat on the ground like Yu Miaomiao.

Seeing that he had stopped acting crazy, Yu Miaomiao tried to communicate with Li Yi using her telekinesis.

Yu Miaomiao's current mental abilities are still in the early stages. She cannot communicate with people using telekinesis, but she can communicate with animals. However, monsters shouldn't be considered human, right?

So, she was just giving it a try.

"Let's make a deal."

"Who is speaking?"

Seeing the surprise on Li Yi's unwilling face, Yu Miaomiao knew she had succeeded. Sure enough, telekinesis could communicate with non-humans without barriers.

"If you behave and listen to me, I won't send you for dissection and research. How about that? This deal is a sure win for you."
