When Chen Jian heard that I was going to take Yang Rui away, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Brother Sihai, why don't you ever learn your lesson? Yang Rui is a cunning man, and it's too dangerous to keep him around. Besides, Xiao He and the others might just be saying nice things and that they have no other choice but to preserve their strength first and then look for a suitable opportunity to rescue him. But you're just letting them go like this and then taking Yang Rui back. Isn't that like Mr. Dongguo and the snake?"

Seeing Chen Jian's anxious expression, I slowly shook my head at him: "Don't worry, we have so many people here. Whether it's the weapons or the number of people, we have far exceeded the range that Xiao He and his men can attack. So taking them back now is just to find out what Yang Rui and his men are planning. As for the rest, don't worry, I already have a plan in mind."

Hearing what I said, Chen Jian could only nod. After a long while, he sighed and said, "Alright, but you just said that you found a new campsite. I'm afraid we can't go back to our current campsite. Why don't we move these things and go to the campsite you found?"

"Everyone was terrified that night, and the women and children suffered even more. Let's find a place to settle down, eat something, and rest."

Wang Ping quickly went to help Chen Jian take the gun and weapons in his hands. Then, our group of people escorted Yang Rui back to the base where the robot was hiding.

Upon entering the base, everyone seemed exceptionally excited, while Yang Rui was still dizzy.

008 had already used those electronic bracelets to tightly bind Yang Rui and left him aside, and then sent a foreigner to guard him.

The rest of the people patrolled the base. Chen Jian looked around with great interest, his face beaming with excitement.

"Brother Sihai, this base is amazing! It has everything we need. Although it's covered in dust, we can clean it up. We've finally found a decent place. Now we don't have to worry about wind and rain anymore, and there won't be any more mudslides, right?"

Everyone was clearly very happy. Wang Xiaoxiao and Xu Wei were carrying Tianci and walking back and forth in the base.

I had 008 send the remaining robots back to the display cases where they had been, and that's when I discovered that the place where those robots were standing was actually a hidden charging compartment.

After some speculation and research, we concluded that these charging compartments might be powered by solar energy.

Because only such a guess is the most plausible.

Chen Jian led everyone to quickly and carefully clean up the campsite, including all the usable tools and pots and pans that had been thrown away by the previous owner.

We've really hit the jackpot! Although a few windows outside are broken, I think I can somehow get those back.

That iron door is also quite magical. You can get guns and ammunition, as well as food, from that iron door, so it shouldn't be too difficult to conjure up two pieces of glass.

I first calmed down the excited crowd around me, then got them to their places. The women took the dried fish and meat we had dried at the campsite and started cooking.

The rest was to continue tidying up the surrounding area.

That's the situation inside the base; the situation outside is more complicated.

We arrived in a hurry and didn't know the specifics. We also had to set up defenses outside in case the Utas tribe or pirates attacked us without any preparation.

Wang Ping went to take care of these things, and Li Peng followed Chen Jian to tidy up some of the more secluded corners outside the camp to prepare to set up some sentries, so that the rest of us could rest in peace.

Dinner consisted of meat soup and crab sauce made earlier. After dinner, Wang Ping led Chen Jian to take a closer look at the locations occupied by the robots. To Chen Jian's surprise, he discovered that the base was indeed powered by solar energy.

Moreover, the solar power storage box is very advanced; it can even turn on lights throughout the entire camp, and it's the kind that automatically turns on when it gets dark.

This was a pleasant surprise for us, since we had been using a campfire for light ever since we arrived on this deserted island.

Although campfires provide warmth and can be used for cooking, their brightness is limited, leaving the surroundings pitch black at night, creating a particularly oppressive atmosphere.

But now that we have such a lamp, it's like a salvation for us.

However, Chen Jian and his team were a little worried that the lights might become outdated due to aging wiring.

I don't have that worry. After all, there are similar lights inside that iron gate. If those lights get old, I can simply take new ones from inside the iron gate and replace them.

Now, all I want to know is Yang Rui's purpose and that of his group.

After I finished eating, I went to the corner where Yang Rui was. He was already awake, and the foreigners had changed shifts.

At that moment, Yang Rui was sitting there in a daze. When he saw me coming over, his eyes regained some of their former sparkle.

He stared at me intently, a smile playing on his lips. "Zhao Sihai, from the moment I met you, I knew you were no ordinary person. I just didn't expect you to have such great abilities and incredible luck. Not only were you able to find so many robots, but you also survived being chased by so many people. Ha, I really underestimated you."

Looking at Yang Rui, I felt increasingly disgusted with him.

“I don’t want to explain all this to you. Whatever happened, it was never what we wanted. These were all passive events. Now I just want to ask you, what is the purpose of your coming here? You could have left, but instead you keep taking risks here.”

"Xiao He also told me some things, but he probably doesn't know as much as you do. So if you can tell me the whole story now, I might consider letting you go."

When Yang Rui heard what I said, he turned his head to look at me, his expression unfathomable, and I didn't know what he was thinking.

Actually, I was quite nervous, because I didn't know if Yang Rui would tell the truth. But if he really couldn't, maybe I could ask 008 for help and get a little assistance from him.

What I didn't expect was that after staring at me for a while, Yang Rui suddenly deflated like a punctured balloon and took a deep breath.

"Now that I'm in your hands, there's nothing to hide about that matter anymore. I'm just afraid you'll think I'm daydreaming, since this is really unacceptable."
