Chapter 409: Cooperation?

Vegetables that have been exposed to radiation or have grown mutants are not good things either. No wonder Eiffel has been having nosebleeds recently, no wonder the fat chicken can't stand the vegetables inside, and no wonder Jingshu always hears crying sound waves coming from the mutant vegetables. This weird big castle is the wall built by the virus, absorbing harmful substances every day, and it's a wonder these people didn't even notice it.

And these foods only gave them the illusion of becoming stronger temporarily.

This was all just a scam. She said that she had never heard of such magical materials in her previous life. She guessed that these two people were not time travelers at all. Just as they said, they were just a gang of scammers.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

So, since everyone's here to take Austin, is it possible to collaborate? Everyone gets what they want, right? Wouldn't that make the mission much easier? It just so happens that everyone's stuck at the threshold of Austin, unable to leave. Forcing anything out of Austin's castle is incredibly difficult, but perhaps a trick would be easier. Ideally, having the enemy proactively deliver the supplies would be the best option.

Jingshu's mind started to work frantically.

At this time, Dr. B said, "You have to believe in human greed and desire. Humans are never deceived by others, but they deceive themselves. They live in their own lies. No one can wake them from their beliefs. With the city wall, they will first believe us. After a series of tests, they will eventually indulge in the dream of getting rich every day."

"So how do we get the stuff out? How do we escape?"

Dr. B paced back and forth, saying, "I planned to move all of this outside, then swap the supplies without anyone noticing. We'd just as well escape from outside... Unfortunately, we have to proceed step by step, slowly, or even make them beg us to complete this ritual outside. Then perhaps we'll have to tweak the materials. This precious water of life must be rare, and the method of obtaining it must be unheard of. Come on, let me think about it, how should this play out?"

"Bit, besides the three of us, maybe we should find some powerful companions, and trustworthy ones. After all, it won't be easy for us to escape."

"Are you crazy? No one in Austin can be trusted. They're all that man's lackeys, indulging in a life of drunkenness and debauchery. If anyone finds out that all this is a conspiracy, we'll die miserably!"

"Pa pa pa" Jingshu clapped her hands and walked out of the darkness. She had to say that Dr. B's plan really pleased her. He was a man who had mastered the essence of deception.

"Who is it! Who is there!"

"Damn it, how did she get in!"

Jingshu's figure was exposed under the dim light. The lady panicked and immediately pulled out her gun, aiming it at Jingshu and ready to shoot. The fact that she could carry a gun in this castle where guns were banned showed that Dr. B and his men were still very powerful and had successfully deceived her, even she was fooled.

"Ma'am, don't get excited, otherwise..." Jingshu said with a slight smile on her lips. With a gesture, more than a dozen snakes had quietly coiled around Dr. B's feet, and climbed up their necks at an incredible speed, sucking and spitting out their tongues.

Dr. B raised his hands and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't get excited, my dear beautiful lady. I just don't know how I can help you."

Jingshu walked over slowly and sat on the sofa wearing her big cotton-padded jacket. Xiaohei, as her follower, translated the conversation between the two parties.

"Bit, it's her, this Chinese woman, she cultivated the medicinal herbs!"

Dr. B narrowed his eyes, rubbed his red nose, and shrugged. "Look, this clever young lady must have discovered something. You must have heard something, right?"

Jingshu patted her dusty clothes and said, "It was really not easy to crawl in through your chimney. I heard everything you said, and I think I know the secret of the focusing stone."

"Oh? That's really bad news, beautiful lady, what are you going to do now? Threaten us? Or report us? However, these two possibilities are unlikely." Dr. B seemed not to be bothered at all.

Don't be nervous. I have once again mastered the liar's x skill. I must be confident at all times.

Jingshu nodded: "Actually, I want to cooperate with you."

"You want supplies too?" the lady asked warily.

Jing Shu shook her head. Most of the food here has been irradiated and is probably unsafe to eat. "Honestly, I came to Austin City because I wanted the complete vegetable dehydration equipment. Of course, I also want all the seeds from the rich seed bank. A few more minerals would also be great."

Dr. B gave a playful smile, seemingly not believing it.

"A very wealthy slave owner has recently come to Austin and offered a large reward for a group of Asians. Did you know about this news?" he asked in surprise.

Dr. B nodded, then raised an eyebrow. "Could it be that the group he wants to capture are you? But...how did you manage to get through so many levels and successfully enter the castle?"

Jing Shu smiled faintly and said, "Of course there is a way to get into the castle. Do you know why he offered us such a high reward? Because we stole twenty cargo ships of their food supplies. So, we don't need food in the short term. Instead, we need to produce and process dried vegetables."

Doctor B showed a look of sudden enlightenment, then he laughed and said, "It seems that we are all one family. So... could you please, beautiful lady, remove your little cuties? We can discuss our next plan."

With a wave of her hand, the little snakes retreated like a tide. The lady breathed a sigh of relief only after they disappeared completely. She raised the corners of her mouth and snapped her fingers. For a long while, there was no change.

Jingshu snapped her fingers lightly, and a half-human, half-ghost figure wrapped in bandages slowly emerged from the darkness. Jingshu jokingly asked, "Are you looking for this person?"
