The mute woman slaughtered the miscellaneous army, truly descending into madness.

This situation made Lucas a little uncomfortable; he still wanted to keep a few survivors to gather information from the outside.

Surprisingly, Lucas's commands were ineffective at this moment.

The system informed Lucas that a certain mechanism within the mute woman had been activated after her body received a powerful impact, and she wouldn't stop until she released something.

Of course, the system also assured Lucas that the mute woman wouldn't harm anyone outside of his commands, so there was no need to worry about her distinguishing between friend and foe.

After watching through the scope for about ten minutes, Lucas sighed. It turned out that there was only one evolved person in this motley crew, and the other ordinary people weren't really enough to deal with the mute girl.

At this point, there were approximately a hundred remaining members of the miscellaneous army, all of them soldiers.

Lucas suddenly thought it would be good to keep these people.

Not to mention, the qualities of soldiers were unmatched by ordinary people.

With over a thousand individuals from the Arms Factory and Blue Sky Lake, having a group of soldiers to maintain order and security would undoubtedly improve the situation.

If they waited any longer, the mute woman would eliminate all the soldiers.

They couldn't wait any longer!

Lucas slung his sniper rifle and swiftly ran towards the entrance of the Arms Factory.

In three minutes, Lucas had already rushed from the mountain to the entrance of the Arms Factory, standing directly in front of the mute woman.

At this moment, the knife in the mute woman's left hand was only 0.01 centimeters away from Lucas's head. Lucas could already feel the chilling aura emanating from the blade.

Only now did Lucas truly understand how formidable the mute woman's knives were, capable of triggering such a cold sensation.

Lucas's sudden appearance finally made the mute woman cease her actions.

The twin knives were instantly sheathed on the mute woman's back, and she continued to gaze at Lucas with her expressionless eyes.

Lucas pretended to remain calm and ordered both Gehring and the miscellaneous army to cease fire.

You might be reading a pirated copy. Look for the official release to support the author.

In reality, Lucas was drenched in cold sweat standing in front of the mute woman.

If Lucas hadn't confirmed that he could still control the little mute girl, he wouldn't have dared to face the mute woman's knife with his head.

When the mute woman's knife was pointed at Lucas's head, he thought about saying something, but considering that the mute woman was a robot, he held his words back.

With Lucas's sudden appearance, the mute woman, who had previously been slaughtering the miscellaneous army like a demon, obediently stood behind Lucas, not allowing anyone to approach him.

At this moment, Lucas didn't notice that Gehring and Reed were looking at him with completely different eyes than before.

They had always thought there might be a romantic relationship between the mute woman and Lucas, given how inseparable they were.

Only now did they realize that this seemingly cold and beautiful woman was nothing more than Lucas's bodyguard.

Shifting their perspective, if Lucas had such a powerful bodyguard, wouldn't Lucas himself be even stronger?

There was a principle that would never change.

The weak are dependent on the strong.

The world had already undergone tremendous changes, and it was clear that Lucas couldn't have hired such a powerful bodyguard.

"Soldiers on the opposite side, the world has undergone a huge transformation. Shouldn't humanity unite?" Lucas spoke with righteousness. "Is it really necessary to fight each other to the death?"

"And Gehring, look at how many people died in the Arms Factory today. Don't you feel heartbroken?"

"I know you want to protect them, but you've also seen that the two of you are completely overwhelmed."

Lucas addressed both sides with a righteous tone, not feeling the slightest bit guilty about his performance.

Although it was so, neither side immediately spoke. They knew there were still words left unsaid by this shameless individual.

Observing the expressions of both sides, Lucas made a proposal.

"I don't know why the two sides are fighting, and I don't care to ask."

"To the soldiers over there, your officer is already dead. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices."

"I have a suggestion. Why don't all of you come with me to settle down at Blue Sky Lake? It's a safe place. From now on, you can all work with me."

"If you continue fighting, you'll only increase casualties."

"And Gehring, why don't you come with me too?"

"With such a commotion, there might be countless insects and zombies coming this way."

"Hurry and pack up. I'll keep watch, and we'll leave this place as quickly as possible."

Gehring sighed helplessly but still gave the order.

"Reed, quickly have all the vehicles from the Arms Factory go to the granary and load up with supplies. Once things are settled here, we'll all go to Blue Sky Lake together."

Actually, Lucas wasn't just talking nonsense. The forest in the mountains was already on fire, with flames reaching the sky. It was highly likely to attract insects and zombies to surround the area.

He wasn't worried that Gehring and the soldiers would disagree because his proposal was currently the best solution.

Staying in the Arms Factory wouldn't guarantee everyone's safety.

Lucas believed that Gehring and the soldiers would follow him to Blue Sky Lake.

Walking slowly with the mute woman, Lucas felt a bit regretful. If he hadn't killed that metallic evolutionist earlier, the system's mission would probably be completed by now, and he might have obtained the yellow capsule and yellow blank blueprints.

But regrets were useless now. Lucas could only hope that a few more evolutionists would appear among those people.

With a thousand people in the group, it wasn't impossible for another evolutionist to emerge.

Returning to the bus, Lucas charged two drones and began the retreat and reorganization.

After about two hours, the massive convoy, followed by a crowd of people, appeared near the bus.

As expected, Gehring and the soldiers agreed to go to Blue Sky Lake.

After the battle on both sides and with the addition of the people from the granary, there were barely over a thousand people for now.

From the current perspective, these people would be the builders of Blue Sky Lake for a long time to come.

For now, everything had settled.

Quietly, Lucas used the skill that could replicate abilities on Gehring. The invisibility ability was successfully acquired.

This ability itself didn't have much offensive power, but it would be quite convenient for various tasks, whether it was for ambushes or escapes.

Because there weren't enough vehicles, many people had to walk. It would probably take a day or even longer to return to Blue Sky Lake.

With less than three hours until the nuclear explosion, Lucas was actually a bit anxious.

For the first time, he felt a bit nervous about the unknown worries.

At that moment, the voice of the system suddenly sounded.

[Mission completed.]

[Congratulations, host, for obtaining three yellow capsules.]

[Congratulations, host, for obtaining three yellow blank blueprints.]

Lucas was instantly dumbfounded...

Did the mission just suddenly complete?

Where was the third evolutionist?

Could it be that someone among these people had already evolved, but he didn't know?

Lucas decided to observe carefully when he met up with Reed in the town.
