That evening, we had dinner together with the small group.
The three captured Blackthorn directors still did not receive any food supplements.
The small group had already decided to use the three Blackthorn directors as bait to attract the Quiet Whisperers, so they were naturally too lazy to waste supplies on them.
But in the three people's own thoughts, the reason why the small group did not provide them with any food and water was mainly to weaken their fighting power and keep them in a weak state, so that it would be easier to control them and avoid accidents.
In the eyes of the three, this was a very normal practice, so they did not even consider resisting.
I just watched the people in the small group eat those sumptuous dishes, feeling extremely surprised and envious of the food the small group could eat.
They originally thought that as long as these people in the small group could have canned food to eat on a daily basis, they would be living a life like a god.
However, who would have thought that canned food is not even worthy of being served on the table of a small group!
Fresh meat, vegetables, fragrant rice and noodles, and even fruit after the meal made the three of them stunned!
Let alone the Blackthorn Company, even the top executives of those large organizations couldn't possibly have such standards for every meal, right?!
Watching everyone's mouths glistening with grease and smelling the delicious aroma of food wafting through the air, the three of them felt the hunger in their stomachs grow even more intense and unbearable...
They were already starving when they were trapped in the kindergarten building.
After being caught and detained, they had to endure such a series of blows. The three directors, who usually lived a life of luxury, had their psychological defenses basically collapsed completely.
The most burly director couldn't help but beg for mercy and begged the people in the small group to give him something to eat.
But such pleas received no response.
That night, Gu Yuze and Cong Jing were still responsible for keeping watch over the three of them.
The rain stopped completely in the second half of the night, but the city ruins at night were more than ten times more dangerous than during the day. No matter how confident a powerful awakener was in his own strength, he would never be willing to explore the city ruins in the middle of the night.
The next morning, the five-member team led by Xu Qinghe was ready to go.
The three directors were all starved to the point of being on the verge of death.
The body of an awakened person does have greater endurance and tolerance, but this is based on sufficient energy replenishment.
The stronger the body, the more intense the energy consumption. Once the energy replenishment cannot keep up, weakness will come more quickly.
Just like the three directors at this moment, even though they are already level three awakeners, they have been hungry for several days in a row, and even walking has become a little difficult.
In fact, the lack of food is not a big deal. The key is that they can't drink even a drop of water!
"Xiaoshan, Xiaoyun, Yourong, each of you will escort one person. Xiaochen and I will lead the way. No matter who among them tries to slow down our progress or makes any other small moves, we will strike them down immediately. We must ensure that our operation today is not delayed!"
As Xu Qinghe spoke, he released the drone in his hand again.
Then Bento walked ahead and headed back towards the power station!
The three directors had no idea where the team's destination was, or what they were planning to do by bringing them along.
They were dizzy and dazed from hunger. Although the shackles on their feet were removed, their hands were handcuffed behind their waists, and they had no strength to resist.
It was not until this time that they finally felt that something was wrong.
If the other party intends to use them in exchange for ransom, they should take them north to the Blackthorn Camp.
But... the team's direction of travel is south... and it seems they're actually moving deeper into the core area of Qin Island?! What's going on?!
They wanted to ask, but their escorts showed no interest in explaining. Instead, they kept dangling high-frequency swords right under their noses. If they walked too slowly, a part of their body would be cut off by the swords...
After marching for nearly two hours, the three directors almost fainted from extreme hunger and fatigue, and the team finally stopped moving forward.
An abandoned power station appeared in the sight of the three directors.
Under the escort of the team, the three directors walked into the first floor of the power station and then went up the stairs to the second floor.
Standing at the door of the emergency passage on the second floor, the three directors were looking at the primitive jungle scene on the second floor with confusion in their hearts. Suddenly, the director with the largest build screamed!
Because he felt someone kicking him hard on the back!
The huge impact not only made him want to vomit blood, but also made him feel like a kite with a broken string, and he was kicked straight into the second floor!
The next second, something strange happened!
A huge herb that looks like a banana fan suddenly jumped up!
The densely packed leaves like feathers opened up in an instant, and the sharp hooks on the leaves were like sharp teeth, swallowing the burly director on the spot with a fierce bite!
The burly director screamed again.
But the scream was not completely uttered, and it stopped abruptly in less than two or three seconds!
The sharp thorns on the leaves had already pierced the burly director into a honeycomb, and the other two directors were stunned on the spot.
"Now! Go!"
Xu Qinghe gave a reminder and then rushed straight in!
The others followed closely behind without any hesitation at Xu Qinghe's orders.
Sure enough, although the Silent Whisperer who swallowed the burly director reacted to the passage of the group, the reaction was very slight, and most of its attention was still focused on digesting the burly director!
After passing the second floor smoothly and going up the stairs to the third floor, I found that the situation on the third floor was completely different from that on the second floor.
Compared to the second floor which has been occupied by vegetation, the third floor is much cleaner and barely maintains its original dilapidated appearance.
"It seems safe for now. Be careful. Our target is the battery warehouse! Once we find it, we'll try to recycle the batteries that are still usable. Anything else has nothing to do with us!"
Xu Qinghe said this and looked back at the remaining two directors.
The two directors were still in a daze. The scene of the burly director being thrown out as bait had caused a great shock to them.
"You've seen why we brought you here. The good news is, there's only one Quiet Whisperer here. This means that even if it quickly consumes your companion, when we leave, we'll only need one more person to satisfy its appetite. At least one of you will survive."
After saying that, Xu Qinghe no longer paid attention to the remaining two directors. He turned around and led the team to check the rooms on the third floor.
