Chapter 851

Chapter 250 Investment

Late at night, the Kunlun Giant Ship returned to Raging Tides Island, and Li Tianran, true to his word, immediately distributed one-fifth of the goods from the storage point as a reward to the Gale Apostle for providing information.

Watching the Gale Apostle and its followers move the supplies back to their habitat, Qin Yiming felt a little pained. Standing beside Li Tianran, he whispered, "Boss, aren't you being a little too generous with these guys?"

"If you ask me, they were already desperate when they came to us, and these supplies should be their reward for us providing shelter. Why should we share them?"

Faced with Qin Yiming's question, Li Tianran simply said, "The Gale Apostle is more useful than you think! We still need it to do some things for us. This isn't generosity, but... an investment."

Qin Yiming scratched his head. In his opinion, an Apostle who had lost its Miracle Building was only valuable for its combat power as a Second Evolutionist. In other aspects, it was not worth paying attention to at all!

"It's a creature that has survived from the extremely distant ancient times, a witness who has completely experienced the entire history of the ancient civilization. Some of the information in its head may not even be known by the Earth Apostle..." Li Tianran said softly. He didn't tell Qin Yiming that the Gale Apostle might be a spy sent by the ancient civilization, and that he was planning to win it over and have it play its role for real.

The truth of this matter, which concerned two civilizations and involved Apostles, was only known to Li Tianran himself and would not be easily revealed to anyone else.

"By the way, at 1:35 AM, turn off the automatic defense fire of the Burning Steel Wall for 15 minutes." Li Tianran did not forget the choice he had mentioned to the Gale Apostle earlier. He issued an order to Qin Yiming: "Also, have the pioneers guarding it withdraw!"

Qin Yiming was stunned.

This order was almost equivalent to putting Raging Tides Island into an undefended state for 15 minutes. If it were invaded, the consequences could be very serious.

"Boss, this..." Qin Yiming frowned.

"Raging Tides Island is now the safest place in the world. We have the Kunlun Giant Ship and the Triangular Towers. Even if I permanently shut down the Burning Steel Wall, no force would dare to invade." Li Tianran glanced at Qin Yiming, instantly understanding what the other person was thinking, and smiled confidently. "Just do as I say!"

Faced with Li Tianran's insistence, Qin Yiming had no choice but to comply, no matter how worried he was.

Soon, as the control commands were issued, the entire Burning Steel Wall surrounding Raging Tides Island stopped its energy supply, and the indicator lights on the steel walls gradually went out.

The pioneers responsible for guarding the city walls also received an order for emergency evacuation.

The time came to 1:35 AM, and there was no movement on the entire Burning Steel Wall, as if it were a dead city.

At the same time, within the Gale Clan's habitat.

The Gale Apostle looked at the Burning Steel Wall, which had completely fallen silent, and was engaged in an intense psychological struggle.

What Li Tianran had said to it this afternoon had given it a very strong sense of unease!

Li Tianran must have seen through its true intentions!

If it wanted to escape, now was the only chance.

But after leaving Raging Tides Island, where could it go?

Back to the ancient civilization?

If that happened, the resources it had worked so hard to obtain would be divided up again by the other three races, and it would still be treated as cannon fodder!

No...

It couldn't go back!

A hint of ferocity flashed in the Gale Apostle's eyes.

Even if it had to listen to Li Tianran's orders and act as a double agent, it absolutely could not return to the ancient civilization!
