Chapter 212 Preparing to Leave
Undead Fortress, main building, reception room.
"Brother Batu, come here, have some tea." After Li Ziyu made some fancy moves, he poured the tea into the tea cup and made a gesture of invitation to Batu Buhe opposite him.
His eyes swept over the coffee table, the tea table, and the tea set. Batubuhe glanced at Li Ziyu again, then happily picked up the teacup, took a sip, and savored it carefully. His eyes lit up, "Brother Li, this tea is good, very fragrant. I never thought I could drink such delicious tea in another world."
Li Ziyu quickly waved his hands and said modestly, "I didn't make these. Zhang Peng accidentally found them in a small tribe and brought some back. If Brother Batu likes them, I'll decorate some for you to take away later."
Upon hearing this, Batubuhe hurriedly bowed and thanked him, "Then I won't be polite. I really need this tea. I have to say, the products of this wasteland are too few. Apart from meat, there are only wild fruits and vegetables. I really need to drink tea to supplement it."
Li Ziyu nodded in agreement. He felt the same way. Eating meat was indeed enjoyable, but eating it every day for every meal was unbearable. Drinking some tea could supplement the vitamins and other things needed by the human body, and it could also eliminate oil and relieve greasiness. He picked up the teapot and poured tea into Batubuhe's tea cup.
This kind of tea from another world can not only supplement the needs of the human body, but also has a strong refreshing effect. It is even safe to eat it directly. Li Ziyu has tried it and it has a rich natural floral fragrance, which is very good.
After drinking two more cups of tea, Batubuhe put down the cup, looked at Li Ziyu and asked, "Brother Li, you didn't just ask me to drink tea, did you? If you have something serious to say, just tell me directly."
System chat is a way of communicating, but both Li Ziyu and Batubuhe feel that communicating via system chat is not as reliable as talking face to face. So when Li Ziyu approached Batubuhe and invited him to visit his fortress, Batubuhe immediately agreed.
He was not afraid of Li Ziyu's conspiracy or tricks. During this period, he learned about Li Ziyu indirectly from Zhang Peng and Liu Xingxing. He felt that Li Ziyu's character was very similar to his. He was righteous, abided by the rules, and protected his shortcomings. There was no deep hatred between the two of them, so such a person would not suddenly kill him.
Li Ziyu drank the tea in front of him, then spoke thoughtfully, "Brother Batu, you can see that I plan to take over this wasteland. I'm not against you collecting supplies, but more and more tribes have come under my control. I'm afraid it won't be a good idea to continue collecting supplies like before."
After entering the wilderness, Batubuhe has been in contact with Li Ziyu, Zhang Peng and Liu Xingxing. They all know how Batubuhe collects resources. To put it bluntly, he is "collecting protection fees". He is not like He Ziping who kills and robs people everywhere.
There was no problem before, but now, the wasteland is gradually moving towards unification. A large number of tribes have surrendered to Li Ziyu and are stationed around the soul base station. We can't continue to allow Batubuhe to collect "protection fees", right?
How would the surrendered tribe view him as the Lord of the Undead? Li Ziyu felt that he needed to have a frank talk with Batubuhe. He believed that Batubuhe could understand him.
As expected, after he said this, Batubuhe understood and nodded, "I understand. So, what does Brother Li want from me? Do you need me to leave here?"
Everyone said so, and Batubu felt that the other party was issuing an order to expel him. He could no longer get more resources here, so naturally he had to go to other places to continue collecting resources.
Batubuhe did not intend to fight for dominance. He did not want to offend Li Ziyu. Instead, he wanted to become an ally of Li Ziyu. The alien world was huge and there were plenty of places. The worst that could happen was that he would rush into the wasteland again and look for a new wasteland.
Li Ziyu pressed his hand, signaling Batubuhe not to rush. "I'm not trying to chase you away, but I want to have a chat with you. You're from the Central Region and know more than me, so if I don't understand something, of course I need to ask you for help."
Batubuhe saw that Li Ziyu had something else in his words, looked at him in confusion, and motioned for him to continue.
Li Ziyu continued, "I've found the road to the central area. It takes three days to get there from here. Of course, I only reached the border and didn't go through, so I don't know what the situation is like on the other side. But now that I've found it, I can't just leave it there. I'm running low on resources right now, and this wasteland isn't enough for me."
Oh, I see. So you are planning to expand.
Batubuhe thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Brother Li, I'm not trying to dissuade you, I'm just being honest. With your current strength, it's difficult for you to gain a foothold in the central region. Unless you plan to become a bandit and plunder the central region, you will offend the indigenous people there. If you can only rob people, you won't be able to settle down there in the future."
If it was before they went to war with the rat tribe, then OK, no problem, Li Ziyu would go over, and with the help of these time-travel lords, they would be able to gain a foothold. But it is no longer possible now. The time-travel lords in their central area have already failed, and the time-travel lords who remain in the central area are like rats crossing the street, hiding from each other.
If you don’t have absolute strength to go there at this time, it would be better not to go.
Batubuhe's words were exactly what Li Ziyu thought. He was afraid that if he went there, he would be sniped by those powerful tribes, and instead of getting any resources, he would suffer a great loss.
It wasn't that Li Ziyu wanted to leave on a whim, but because he had previously mobilized a wave of soldiers to deal with He Ziping, and coupled with the previous construction and research, the soul energy he obtained from the battle with the Cancer Alliance had reached its limit.
