The engineer saw that Luo En was deep in thought and tactfully did not disturb him.

After a while, the engineer became anxious from waiting and asked cautiously, “City Lord?”

He thought Luo En was thinking hard for a solution, but in reality, Luo En was checking the System. And, he did find a solution.

Luo En came to his senses and slowly said, “I already have a solution to the problem!”

Upon hearing this, the engineer blurted out without conscious thought, and asked, “What is the solution?”

When he became aware, he promptly shut his mouth.

Luo En looked into the engineer’s eyes and said coldly, “This is not something you should ask! Alright, take me to the mining site!”

“Yes, City Lord!” the engineer replied quickly.

Soon, the engineer had brought Luo En to the mining site. Workers in the mining site were transporting the last batch of ores to the mobile city.

“Greetings, City Lord!”

The workers greeted Luo En respectfully as he approached.

Looking at the ores on the transport truck, Luo En turned to the workers and said, “You’ve all worked hard! After transporting this truck, I’ll give all of you extra food tonight!”

“Thank you, City Lord!”

Luo En nodded in satisfaction before heading to the Resource Room. Regardless of where the ores were mined from, they would eventually be transported to the Resource Room.

Shortly after, Luo En arrived at the Resource Room. Looking at the ores, which were divided by kind and stacked in piles in the Resource Room, he became a little excited in his heart.

Making a rough estimate, he found that there were 50 tonnes of copper ore, 9 tonnes of iron ore, and one tonne of silver ore. It was just as the engineer had said.

I’ll devour these ores first and then buy five small detector blueprints! I’ll also need to keep some ores to make the small detectors and some for backup! Luo En thought.

“System! Devour!”

[City Lord System: Devour completed!]

[City Lord System: Congratulations to the host for obtaining 15,000 Evolution Points!]

The System’s voice sounded.

“System! Purchase blueprints for five small detectors!”

[City Lord System: Purchase in progress…. Purchase successful!]

As soon as the System finished speaking, five blueprints appeared in the storage space of the System. He had also lost 5,000 Evolution Points.

Luo En picked up one of the blueprints and examined it.

The blueprint showed the design process of a detector. The whole process was not complicated, but there were many steps, and the slightest carelessness would cause it to be ruined. However, the instructions had been clearly written on it and were easy to understand, so nothing should go wrong to ruin it.

With these blueprints, the mining speed will be faster!”

With this in mind, Luo En immediately took the blueprints and left the Resource Room. He walked quickly towards the engineers’ office.

Soon, Luo En had arrived at the engineers’ office.

Inside the office, the engineers were all frowning. When they saw Luo En enter, they forced a smile and greeted respectfully, “City Lord!”

Luo En looked at the engineers. “What’s wrong?” he asked, puzzled. “Why are you all frowning?”

Wang Cheng, the captain of the engineers, stood up and said with a bitter smile, “It’s all because of the detector! We’ve already asked all the maintenance workers in the mobile city. None of them can fix the detector. If they can’t fix the detector, we can’t start work! By the way, City Lord, why are you here?”

Upon hearing, Luo En laughed and said slowly, “I’m here to solve the problem!

“Here! These are the design blueprints to make the detectors!” As he spoke, Luo En took out the five blueprints which had been placed earlier in the System’s storage space.

“What did you say, City Lord? These are the blueprints for the detectors?”

Everyone exclaimed in shock.

Luo En replied calmly, “If you don’t believe me, you can take a look yourself!”

Upon hearing this, they picked up the five blueprints on the table and looked at them. The more they looked, the more excited they became.

“It’s true! It’s true! I didn’t expect to be able to see the blueprint of a detector in my lifetime! I have not lived in vain. Hahahaha!” Wang Cheng laughed and said excitedly.

“Yes! These are really the design blueprints!”

The engineers beside him echoed.

As an engineer, the biggest dream in life was to be able to have all kinds of blueprints and build the corresponding machines!

Wang Cheng became excited for quite a while, then he looked at Luo En and asked puzzledly, “City Lord, aren’t the blueprints of detectors monopolized by large mobile cities? How did you get hold of the blueprints of detectors?”

Luo En turned around and left his seat. With his back facing Wang Cheng, he said coldly, “This is not your business! You just need to follow my orders! I have handed these five blueprints to you. Build five small detectors for me!”

Wang Cheng quickly replied, “Yes, City Lord! The five detectors can be built by tomorrow!”

Luo En nodded in satisfaction and walked out of the door. Everyone in the office looked at the back view of Luo En as he left. They were all filled with admiration. It didn’t matter how Luo En got the blueprints, in their eyes, Luo En was like a god because he had helped them fulfill their dreams.

Soon, they took the blueprints and headed straight to the manufacturing plant, planning to quickly make the detectors.

At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the sky was gradually turning dark. The night was approaching quietly, and the mutated creatures had also arrived on the land with the nightfall.

Luo En came to the control room and pulled down the power switch as usual. The city fell into darkness once again, leaving only a faint light on the gunners’ side.

The people in the city became anxious again. If it had been in the past, they wouldn’t be so because the mobile city could move and would not remain in the same place. So, it was basically impossible to be attacked by the mutated creatures. Even if they were attacked, they could easily flee, given their speed.

However, the tracks of the mobile city had been damaged now; the likelihood of the people being attacked by mutated creatures had greatly increased.

The wait was long, more so when in a tense state. Each day felt like a year!

Although they had mined a lot of ores during the day, there were not enough to deal with the countless mutated creatures. The people could only pray that they could survive the night.

Yet, the God of Fate did not favor Luo En. At four in the morning, a mutated creature with a wolf head and human body came within a thousand meters of the mobile city!

“Fire!”

Upon seeing it, Luo En immediately ordered.

With a boom, a shell was fired toward the mutated creature below.

Boom!

Instantly, smoke and dust was everywhere; the raised dust obscured everyone’s vision.

After the smoke had dissipated, everyone immediately fixed their eyes and looked. At that moment, there was no trace of any mutated creatures. Only a pool of blood was flowing slowly on the ground, and a hole had been blown out on the ground.

When everyone saw the outcome, they heaved a sigh of relief. Just when they thought that everything was fine, something unfortunate happened.

The explosion earlier had attracted the attention of mutated creatures in the mountain range. A dense mass of mutated creatures could be seen lifelessly moving toward the mobile city swiftly. Among them, there were even mutated creatures that were all covered in steel. Mutated creatures of this kind had amazing defense!

It would take at least three shells from a large caliber bronze cannon to kill. And a large caliber iron cannon would require at least two shells to kill!

From a quick look, there were about ten of such mutated creatures and about sixty mutated creatures of other kinds! And, at a distance away, there were even more mutated creatures making their way here.

The people who were just feeling relieved became fearful again. Their faces were full of panic. There were really too many mutated creatures!

The captain of the gunners, Wang Yu, hurried to Luo En’s side and said, “City Lord! What should we do? There are too many mutated creatures. We won’t be able to kill them all in time! Also, we don’t have enough ammunition to fire indiscriminately!”

Luo En frowned upon hearing. He pondered for a while and said decisively, “Continue to fight! I’ll think of a way! We must not let the mutated creatures get near the mobile city! We must continue fighting even if we have to exhaust all our resources!”

“Yes, City Lord!” Wang Yu replied respectfully before leaving.

Although he was very anxious and also curious about how Luo En would resolve the crisis, this was not something he could know.

Looking at the dense mass of mutated creatures outside the mobile city, Luo En was also becoming anxious..
