The seemingly indestructible brow was crushed to pieces by Mo Shuwan with a gentle squeeze, yet the burly man's expression remained unchanged.

Mo Shuwan smiled and said, "Sorry, I used a little too much force."

The burly man was silent for a moment before laughing and saying, "It's just a consumable anyway." After saying that, he suddenly broke off the other horn on his head, and then, in full view of everyone, took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out some powder, and applied it to the broken horn.

Then everyone saw that two temples sprouted from the broken spot like bamboo shoots after a rain, and soon the two temples were restored to their original state.

The burly man stopped talking, Mo Shuwan sat back down, and the others returned to their previous slumped state.

The group had been staying at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters for three whole days, and it seemed they would continue to wait. Although they hadn't spoken to each other, everyone knew they were waiting for an opportunity.

This opportunity finally came when everyone had been at an altitude of 10,000 meters for half a month!

A massive vortex appeared above the city below, and a look of joy appeared in the eyes of the burly man, as did the faces of the other extraterrestrial invaders.

"It's finally here! We've been waiting for this day for far too long!"

"Hahahaha! Finally! Finally!"

The burly man's excitement gradually faded, and in that short time he had calmed down. "Now is not the time. Don't be impulsive. Let's get the preparations done first."

The extraterrestrial invaders, who had been listless since Mo Shuwan and the others boarded the ship, suddenly roared. Even without listening closely, one could hear the excitement in their voices. Cheng Hua and the others, who had been lying on the ground, all sat up and squinted at the extraterrestrial invaders.

A moment later, Cheng Hua cursed under his breath, "These guys are really good at pretending!"

Yun Chen sneered, "How can you survive if you don't pretend to be convincing?"

Because of the appearance of the huge vortex below, the ship rose even higher into the air. And no one knew what the strong man had done to the ship, but it suddenly disappeared from everyone's perception. No matter what method they used to check, the ship seemed to not exist.

"This is a good idea; it can prevent others from spying on us."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I just don't know what they're up to."

"War?"

"Hey, snap out of it. You think you can fight a war with just a few people? How did you even come up with that idea?"

Just as everyone started another round of teasing, the burly man walked up to them, plopped down in front of them, and said in a very good mood, "Alright, ask whatever you want."

Mo Shuwan, who had been dozing off on Wen Zuo's shoulder, opened her eyes and looked at him carefully. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, she finally spoke, "When did you come to the Burial Ground?"

The burly man glanced at Mo Shuwan, then suddenly narrowed his eyes. "I need to think about this carefully. Sigh, the years I've been here have been too long; I can hardly remember them anymore."

Mo Shuwan nodded and said nothing more.

"What did you do while you were in those villages?"

Zheng Shanhe was asking the question, and the burly man naturally turned to look at Zheng Shanhe. This time, he smiled and explained directly, "Of course, it's to collect crystals."

Everyone was taken aback. If it was about collecting crystals, there was no need to go so many times.

Having thought of this, he was bound to ask, but to his surprise, the burly man immediately gave him a meaningful look. This time, instead of answering, he asked in return, "How much do you know about the burial grounds?"

"Very few."

"Hahahaha, do you know what foreign invaders call the burial ground?"

Seeing the meaningful smile on the burly man's face, everyone immediately realized that it was probably not a good name. They stood around the burly man, quietly waiting for him to give the answer.

"A cage".

"What? A cage? Why a cage?"

"Yes, why is it a cage? Take a guess."

Chen Jiaxu's lips twitched, thinking to himself, "Screw you, I'm not going to guess."

But my mind still involuntarily searches for possible answers.

Mo Shuwan stared at the burly man and suddenly thought of the question Zheng Shanhe had asked earlier: what did they do in the village? The burly man's answer was to collect crystals. But obviously, they couldn't have killed one or two people to collect crystals every time they went. And now, when asked why they went so many times, he suddenly asked a question in return.

There must be a connection between these two things.

What is it?

A cage?

A cage...

Mo Shuwan squinted, repeatedly pondering the two words.

At this moment, Wen Zuo handed over a piece of paper.

—Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to kill the invaders from outside the territory. They will strangely resurrect. Here, if they are not killed by special means, they will also resurrect. However, if they are not killed by special means, they do not have crystals on their chests. I suspect that they repeatedly go to those villages because even if some people are killed by special means and the crystals on their chests are removed, they can still resurrect.

Mo Shuwan was slightly taken aback, "Even if someone dies and has their crystal taken, they can still be resurrected... The cage..."

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she looked sharply at the burly man.

The burly man instantly noticed Mo Shuwan's gaze and suddenly laughed, "Looks like you've got a clue."

"Captain? What did you guess?"

Everyone else looked at Mo Shuwan with curiosity.

Mo Shuwan looked only at the burly man and said, word by word, "It is called a cage because the soul cannot find peace?"
