After Wang Cheng received Luo En’s order, he carefully took the five small detectors and took his leave.

Luo En also followed closely behind Wang Cheng.

Both of them stopped only when they arrived at the mining site.

At this moment, dozens of people had gathered at the mining site. They were sitting on the ground and chatting with each other. These workers would only work when they needed to mine. At other times, they would stay in the mining area, where houses have been provided for them to live in, four persons to a unit. There were also special chefs to deliver food to them.

In short, the treatment of the workers here was considered good in the entire city. However, not everyone could become a worker. Ordinary people had to go through strict physical and radiation tests to become a worker. It could be said that only one in a hundred would be selected. Hence, it was not hard to understand why the workers had such treatment.

“City Lord! Captain Wang Cheng!”

Upon seeing Luo En and Wang Cheng walk over, everyone stood up and greeted them respectfully.

At this moment, a man walked out from the crowd. He lowered his head and said, “City Lord! Captain Wang Cheng! What brought you here?”

The man’s name was Zhang Bo, and he was the foreman here. He was in charge of managing the workers here as well as all the matters here.

When Wang Cheng heard that, he looked at Luo En. After seeing Luo En nod, he turned around and said to everyone, “Today, the City Lord and I are here to tell you something. From today onwards, you can continue to mine ores!”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Bo asked puzzledly, “Captain Wang Cheng! Isn’t our detector broken? Even if it’s fixed, it can’t be fixed so quickly! How can we mine ores without the detector? We can’t mine with the radiation underground, right?”

It wasn’t just Zhang Bo who was puzzled. The other workers also looked at Wang Cheng, perplexed.

Wang Cheng smiled and replied, “Don’t worry! The City Lord and I came here for this matter. With our efforts, we have already built five small detectors!”

“What? Five small detectors have been built? How is that possible?”

“Did I hear wrongly? How is that possible?”

Everyone was shocked and questioned Wang Cheng’s words.

Zhang Bo also smiled bitterly and said, “Captain Wang Cheng, don’t joke around. Who doesn’t know that the blueprints for the detectors are all in the hands of large mobile cities? We are only a small mobile city. How can we have the blueprints for the small detectors!”

Wang Cheng didn’t continue to keep them in suspense. He smiled and replied, “I know you don’t believe me. At first, I didn’t believe it either when I heard the news. But look, see what these are!”

As he spoke, Wang Cheng took out the five small detectors and placed them in front of Zhang Bo.

Zhang Bo and the workers behind him came forward and carefully inspected the five small detectors before their eyes.

The more they looked, the more excited they became. Their faces were filled with excitement! All of them widened their eyes, afraid that they would miss out on something. After all, they had never been qualified to see and had never seen such new detectors before.

“It’s real! It’s real! They are really detectors!”

“Unbelievable! Are these detectors?!”

Everyone was in high spirits.

After inspecting carefully for a while, Zhang Bo stepped forward and asked, “Captain Wang Cheng! These… Where in our mobile city would there be these design blueprints?”

When Wang Cheng heard that, he smiled and looked at Luo En, who was deep in thought. “All thanks to the City Lord!”

As soon as Zhang Bo heard that it was done by the City Lord, he suddenly understood. If it was done by the City Lord, there was nothing to be surprised about. After all, the City Lord had created miracles more than once.

Hearing Wang Cheng’s response, everyone looked at Luo En with ardor and admiration.

At this moment, Luo En, who had been sitting on a chair since he arrived, was thinking about when he would be able to accumulate enough Evolution Points to make new tracks and what he should do next.

When Luo En came back to his senses, he realized that everyone was staring at him ardently, as if they were staring at a naked beauty.

Luo En could not help but feel a little awkward. He coughed twice and said, “Since the problem has been solved, let’s resume the mining of ores now! Zhang Bo, you are responsible for all the mining matters!”

“Understood!” Zhang Bo respectfully replied.

“City Lord! That… I checked the number of workers this morning and discovered that thirty-three people had gone missing! They probably ran away last night when they were attacked by the mutated creatures!” Zhang Bo touched his nose and said in a low voice.

Logically speaking, this was his responsibility because as a foreman, he was mainly responsible for everything of the workers. Now, thirty-three workers under him had run away; this was a very embarrassing matter to him.

Luo En nodded. He already knew that in a situation like yesterday, it was normal for people to run away, so he did not blame Zhang Bo. He replied gently, “Well, it’s fine that they ran away. Those who stay are the loyal ones! Alright, take your men to mine the ores. With the five small detectors, I believe your speed and output will greatly increase!”

“Yes, City Lord!” Zhang Bo replied firmly. He felt a bit teary; the admiration he had for Luo En had become even more than before.

Then, he carefully took the five small detectors and led the 50 over workers behind him to the ground.

Luo En followed Zhang Bo and the others to the ground.

Zhang Bo could be seen setting the range for the small detector and placing it in a calculated position. Then, he pressed the power button. The small detector immediately let out a buzz, and a green light appeared at the power source. This meant that the small detector had sufficient power.

Then, the small detector extended its round circular loop from its top and placed it on its front and began to probe with a diameter of 500 meters.

During the detection process, the detector would sound an alarm from time to time. Whenever the detector sounded an alarm, it meant that the spot it was at was where ores existed. Every time this happened, the workers at the side would take out a special, yellow powder-like substance and sprinkle it on that spot as a mark.

The five detectors continued to probe. The workers followed behind marking the spots. Thereafter, they would start to mine. Then, finally, they would transport the ores to the mining site in the mobile city. Everything seemed orderly.

The technology in this world is so advanced and amazing! But why is this mobile city powered by steam engines… Luo En watched everyone carrying out the operation, step by step, and nodded in satisfaction as he thought hard.

At this moment in the mobile city, there was a man dressed in black staring grimly at what was happening on the ground. He was Wang Yun!

He had just been to the mining site, the plantation, the kitchen, and a few other places, and had discovered that the people in the city all admired Luo En from the bottom of their hearts. He did not expect that Luo En, who was a useless waste previously, had now gained the support of most of the people in the city.

Now, only his subordinates and some unimportant people were supporting him. How could he defeat Luo En with just these few people? Furthermore, now that Luo En still had such popular support, his chances of becoming the City Lord became even slimmer.

“I didn’t fry his brain that time! What a pity… Looks like I have to think of a way to do away with him silently…” Thinking of this, Wang Yun’s heart became even more vicious.

Then, Wang Yun saw the small detectors on the ground probing, and he became perplexed. He muttered, “Small detectors? This small, broken mobile city actually has the design blueprints for detectors? Impossible! Then where do the design blueprints come from…”

As Wang Yun thought about this, he suddenly had a plan. He looked at Luo En, who was on the ground, and the corners of his mouth revealed a grim smile. Then, he turned and left.

He didn’t notice that after he left, Luo En turned around and looked at the spot where he had stood earlier.

“This Wang Yun is probably up to no good… Keeping him alive will always be a hidden danger… I’ll have to think of a legitimate way to get rid of him!” Luo En rubbed his chin and muttered.

Then, he turned around and walked towards his room.

He had not had a proper sleep for two days and two nights. These few days had been too tiring for him. He had to worry about this and settle that, causing him to be mentally and physically exhausted. Now that he had time, he could have a good rest..
