After Lu Yuan finished being excited, he looked at the other person again, his eyes filled with a hint of doubt.
"Why are you telling me this? Shouldn't you just give us the orders and we carry them out?"
After hearing this, the other person burst into laughter: "It seems you're really quite wary. Alright, since you've already asked, I'll tell you."
The other person rubbed his hands together, sat down on the table, and lit his pipe again.
"You should know that it takes a lot of effort for our prison to support you inmates. We are a profit-making prison, and high-risk inmates like you can't work, so we're just wasting our money. You should understand that, right?"
Lu Yuan nodded slightly. He knew that ordinary prisoners who entered this prison were usually required to do manual labor.
There is a mine here, and a very peculiar ore has appeared in the mine.
That ore contains what these aliens need.
Therefore, the prisoners who entered the prison were basically required to engage in mining, and they had to carry out high-intensity mining work every day.
However, they are better off than high-risk prisoners like Lu Yuan in that they can stay outside every day and breathe in the purer oxygen.
Because of his special status, Lu Yuan could only be kept in the most strictly hierarchical place and placed under guard.
So, over time, the prison has to spend a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources on these people.
Furthermore, their safety needs to be guaranteed.
After seeing Lu Yuan's opening statement, the warden nodded in satisfaction.
"Since that's the case, I'll be frank. This time, I want you to hunt down a sandworm!"
After hearing his words, Lu Yuan simply chuckled softly.
"Warden, you must be joking. Do you think ordinary people can kill monsters like sandworms? Don't be ridiculous!"
The other person chuckled softly, then stood up and came to Lu Yuan, gently tapping the shackles between his hands.
"Then name your conditions. As long as you help me kill the sandworms, I can choose a more comfortable prison for you in the future!"
Lu Yuan burst into laughter right on time.
"The warden really understands me. Alright, since you're asking for this, I'll agree. But how can you guarantee it?"
After a moment of contemplation, the other person took out a key and handed it to Lu Yuan.
"I'm giving you the key to the cell in advance. This place is much bigger than yours, and there's even a bookshelf inside. You've always been saying you wanted to study properly, so I got you a bookshelf full of books from your human history—enough for you to read until your next life!"
Lu Yuan took it and glanced at it.
"A key isn't enough to prove it's real. I need to see it for myself; seeing is believing. And you need to sign a contract with me!"
The other party couldn't help but laugh after hearing Lu Yuan's words.
"You know, there are so many things to worry about when we work together. Alright, I'll take you to see it, and I can assure you, it'll be exactly what you like."
No one else receives this treatment. I've heard about what happened before. You're incredibly strong, both physically and in other ways. Since you can't provide me with any value now, at least do something for me to make up for my losses!
Then, the warden gently placed a red button on the table.
Then a prison guard came in and led Lu Yuan out again, but this time the warden walked in front.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at the top of the prison's highest tower.
The top of the tower was a place Lu Yuan had always wanted to go up to; he had never been to the highest point in the prison before.
Upon arrival, he gently opened the large door above his face.
All that could be heard was the creaking of the heavy iron door, followed by a stench that wafted out.
Lu Yuan didn't react at all, but the warden wasn't so lucky. He covered his nose, a serious expression on his face, and started cursing at the prison guard next to him.
"What are you all doing? I told you before, seal up this prison and put the iron bars back on. Don't let those vultures and crows poop in here. This place has become a toilet, and you're still locking people up like this?"
The prison guards all lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.
After the warden calmed down a bit after his tirade, he angrily led Lu Yuan into the room.
The room was actually quite nice, except that the books on the bookshelves were damaged by the birds, and there was bird droppings all over the floor.
The warden gave an awkward laugh: "I'm really sorry, it's gotten to this state in here. You'll probably have to clean it up properly later!"
Upon seeing this place, Lu Yuan nodded with delight.
"Hmm, this is perfect, just the kind of place I wanted. The oxygen supply here should be plentiful, right?"
"Of course, the oxygen supply here will still be based on the previous Grade A oxygen!"
Lu Yuan looked at the bookshelves and saw that they all looked quite old.
It was made of thick, black wooden planks, with all sorts of books placed on it.
It contains all sorts of books, including many world classics, biographies, and some of the best-selling books on the market.
Lu Yuan glanced at it and nodded in agreement.
"Then we're officially teaming up! But which group should we join?"
"Which group should you join? You can choose for yourselves!"
Lu Yuan nodded and followed the other person downstairs again.
After two days of tidying up, Lu Yuan finally finished cleaning the new building.
Although it's a bit further away from the downstairs exercise area, I have my own bookshelf here, and the space is much more spacious than before. More importantly, there are no neighbors to bother me.
After Lu Yuan finished packing his things, he waited another day before a group of people finally arrived outside the prison.
There were probably several hundred of these people, and each of them was wearing very strange clothes.
They carried something like oxygen tanks on their backs, and wore masks around their faces and mouths.
These people stopped outside the prison.
One of them stepped forward and immediately made adjustments, and then the team split into several groups.
The only thing that hasn't changed is one of the groups.
