The golden scarab laughed wryly and said, "Skills, sir. My racial skills. Without them, how could I dare to swallow so many live insects?"

Oh, yes, that's possible.

Li Ziyu easily accepted his statement, nodded, and did not pursue it any further. However, he became more curious about the golden scarab and his fortress, and had a vague feeling that the other party's fortress might not be simple.

With a wave of his hand, undead appeared on the walls and the ground, collected the beetles spit out by the golden scarab, and brought him a chair.

Li Ziyu nodded at him, motioning him to sit down. The golden scarab then carefully sat down opposite Li Ziyu.

"You don't have to be so nervous. I just told you, I don't want to kill you, and you won't be in any danger. When you leave, I will return your beetle to you."

With Li Ziyu's words, the Golden Scarab felt somewhat relieved, but his body was still tense. He didn't know who was in front of him, nor did he know if the other party was lying to him, but he still said obediently, "Thank you for not killing me, sir."

Li Ziyu nodded and then said to him, "Please introduce yourself. What is your real name?"

The golden scarab said honestly, "My name is Qin Nan, you can call me whatever you want, sir."

Li Ziyu did not directly ask about the other party's fortress or race, but instead asked about the current situation of the desert.

Seeing that Li Ziyu didn't ask about himself, Qin Nan was relieved and became more honest. He answered whatever Li Ziyu asked and was unbelievably well-behaved.

As he continued to answer, Qin Nan's body gradually relaxed. He was no longer as tense as before, and his guard was lowered a little.

He already knew that the other party was not from the desert and he didn't know where he came from, but he should have just arrived in the desert and didn't know much about the place, so he probably called him over to inquire about the situation. He had experienced this kind of thing before, and as long as he answered honestly, the other party would most likely let him go.

The two were chatting happily when Lin Youyou came back, connected the puppet castle to Li Ziyu's undead castle, and came to the main building of the castle.

Entering the living room, he saw Qin Nan chatting happily. He was slightly stunned, looked at Li Ziyu and asked, "Who is this?"

Qin Nan heard the voice behind him and quickly stood up, nodding and bowing, "Boss, my name is Qin Nan. I was just rescued by Boss Li."

"Oh, that beetle-shaped fortress is yours, right?"

As Lin Youyou spoke, she sat on the chair sent by the undead and looked Qin Nan up and down.

Qin Nan said respectfully, "Yes, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, sir."

Lin Youyou shook her head and said seriously, "The quality of your fortress is very high. I rarely see a fortress that is so realistically mimicked."

Li Ziyu discovered something he didn't know and quickly asked, "Youyou, what do you mean by that?"

Lin Youyou glanced at Li Ziyu and asked in confusion, "Don't you know about the mimic mobile city?"

Then he suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, I forgot, this is your first time in the desert."

He then explained, "There are many insect-type mobile cities in this desert, with beetles being the most numerous. It's easy to tell whether a beetle-type mobile city is powerful or not. Just look at how similar it looks to a beetle. The more it resembles a beetle, the higher its caliber, and it's different from other mobile cities."

After listening to this, Li Ziyu nodded and glanced at Qin Nan.

I said this guy is not simple, he really has something.

Qin Nan didn't expect that Lin Youyou was so familiar with the travelers in the desert area. He felt a little exposed. He looked at Li Ziyu guiltily and put on a wry smile on his face again.

Li Ziyu waved his hand and said to Qin Nan, "Alright, the people chasing you have been dealt with. You now have two choices. One is to leave now, and the other is to be our guide and go with us. After we finish our business, we will give you some resources."

Qin Nan's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Lin Youyou and began to think.

Leaving directly is definitely a good choice. It is equivalent to exchanging some information about the desert for shelter. Judging from the other party's appearance, they should really let him go and will not wait for him to leave and then launch a surprise attack.

Follow along...it seems pretty good too.

The desert area is very different from other areas. After experiencing a period of chaos, other areas will gradually move towards peace. The traversers have the blessing of the system and develop rapidly. They will soon fill the gap with the indigenous people, thereby plundering the resources of the indigenous people and developing rapidly. When a group of traversers stand out, the chaos will come to an end, and the traversers in the area will develop towards unity.

But it is different in the desert area. The indigenous people here are extremely tough and know how to take advantage of their own interests. When they can defeat the traversers, they will not hesitate to attack the traversers and plunder them. When they cannot defeat the traversers, they will immediately start negotiations. It is not a simple negotiation, but a business negotiation.

The desert natives will promise the traveler that they will attack their enemies. If they succeed, the enemy's resources will belong to the traveler. At the same time, they will also offer a considerable amount of resources to ensure that the traveler is satisfied.

Who wouldn't agree to such a good thing?

But once agreed to, it will only exacerbate the chaos.

After all this, the desert is still not unified. At the same time, the indigenous people and travelers in the desert are quite tough. They are unwilling to submit to anyone and will start fighting when they are angry.

Under such circumstances, obtaining resources has become difficult.
