Of course, while these war fortresses were good, they also came with responsibilities. Obtaining a war fortress meant they had to not only gather a large number of survivors but also train a group of warriors. Even with Li Chenzhou having established all the steps and rules, and with the help of the intelligent AI, it was no easy task.

However, no one complained about the trouble. Everyone saw the current situation and knew that if they wanted to survive, they had to fight the Devourers to the death!

So, after some distribution, Li Chenzhou exchanged for another twenty war fortresses, all fully equipped, and gave them to Wang Yuanqiang, Luo Hong, and others. Even Ding Ning took the initiative to ask for one.

He said this was a matter for all of humanity, and he couldn't remain aloof. Therefore, he would also go to a city to integrate the survivor bases there. However, he would first return to the prison to transfer the entire prison to the small world within the war fortress.

That way, he could watch over his comrades while helping Li Chenzhou manage the base and train soldiers!

In fact, Li Chenzhou wanted to send out more people, but there were too few capable and trustworthy individuals. Especially since they were going out with a war fortress – how tempting was a war fortress?

Perhaps someone who was originally grateful to Li Chenzhou might change their mind after driving a war fortress away. People's hearts are the most vulnerable to temptation. Even with Duan Lei there, able to discern their current feelings towards Li Chenzhou and the others, Li Chenzhou didn't dare to gamble!

Therefore, Li Chenzhou was confident in letting Luo Hong and others leave with a few helpers in a war fortress. However, for some bases that Li Chenzhou and Duan Lei had helped establish, where the leaders were chosen by Duan Lei and were considered "green," Li Chenzhou still made them leave in groups of two or three to keep each other in check.

If someone really did escape with a war fortress, Li Chenzhou wouldn't be too concerned about the loss of the fortress. After all, he still had many Slaughter Points. What he cared about was the impact.

Besides, if someone really defected, they couldn't truly escape. Li Chenzhou was the purchaser of the war fortress and possessed supreme authority that others couldn't obtain. Even if someone gained the highest authority over the fortress and tried to escape, he could track the war fortress's exact location.

As long as Li Chenzhou could enter the war fortress, control would completely transfer back to him! And with Fatal Assault and War Fog, it was easy for him to enter as long as he knew the fortress's location. This was why Li Chenzhou dared to take out twenty war fortresses at once.

After all twenty war fortresses left, Fatty and Tian Ya arrived with Zhang Hu.

Zhang Hu was transferred to the fortress where Fatty and the others had been stationed. Duan Xue was at the mountain village base. Both places currently had their own people, so there was no need to worry.

As for Sun Qiang, he didn't actually need to come, but he volunteered and actively requested to come.

Sun Qiang was quite clever. He had already realized that Li Chenzhou was planning to do great things, and more and more people would be following him in the future. Since he was one of his followers, if he didn't seize the opportunity now, he would likely fade into the crowd.

He also knew that this trip was to fight an enemy called the Devourers, but the cowardly Sun Qiang still came, because he knew that sometimes, only by risking his life could he truly win a future for himself!!!

"Xiao Lei, you stay up there and be ready to support us. I'll take them down."

Seeing Fatty and the others arrive, Li Chenzhou said to Duan Lei.

Duan Lei was actually quite strong, a mental ability user with powerful skills. The problem was that Duan Lei's frustrating physique was a bit deadly. Even at Level 3, his Strength and other attributes were still only ten points.

This kind of physique was nothing special now. Even some ability users from other bases had long surpassed Duan Lei. Therefore, Duan Lei's own body was his greatest weakness.

"Boss, we're driving in, I'll be fine in the car!"

Duan Lei said, "As for this fortress, Hong Li is here, there won't be any problems!!!"

"Alright! Let's go together then!"

Li Chenzhou thought for a moment and ultimately didn't refuse.

So, the war fortress remained suspended above the Devourer base, while Li Chenzhou and the others came to the ground and drove the war chariot towards the Devourer's nest.

"Boss, this...there's no entrance?"

Arriving near the "eggshell," the Devourers didn't appear. Fatty looked at the "eggshell" outside and said, "I'll go out and take a look first. They can't kill me in seconds anyway. If they still don't react, then you guys come out."

"Alright!"

Li Chenzhou nodded. The Devourers definitely knew of their arrival. Maybe those guys were watching them from below right now.

Among the team, Fatty had the highest defense. Although he hadn't reached the level of the Undying Heavenly King from his previous life, as he said, it was basically impossible to kill him in seconds.

Even with a concentrated barrage of weapons, Fatty was confident in returning to the war chariot. Therefore, the job of scouting fell to him.

The next moment, Fatty was already outside. He looked around, then walked forward and came to the edge of the "eggshell." He drew his war blade and gently tapped the eggshell with it.

"Pupu!"

The silvery-white shield on the surface of the "eggshell" instantly hardened. The war blade struck it, making a low sound. A fierce smile appeared on Fatty's lips, then he suddenly raised his war blade and slashed down with force.

"Bang!"

With a loud noise, Fatty immediately felt his arms go numb. The war blade slipped from his hand, was bounced back, and spun into the air.

"Damn it! Boss, this thing is too hard, can't break it!"

Fatty shook his arms, moved his numb hands, then picked up the war blade that had fallen to the side and turned to Li Chenzhou.

At the same time, Fatty reached for the light beam gun Li Chenzhou had given them, preparing to use it.

"Don't bother, cannons didn't work, you think a gun will?"

Duan Lei shouted from the roof of the car, then said, "Try using your fist! Generally, this kind of energy shield doesn't work on living things."

"How do you know?"

Fatty was stunned.

"That's how it's written in novels!"

Duan Lei curled his lips.

"Damn..."

Fatty muttered, then put away the gun and war blade, rubbed his hands, stared at the "eggshell" at his feet, preparing to try punching it first. What if Duan Lei was right?

But just as Fatty raised his fist, ready to smash it down, the eggshell in front of him cracked open, revealing a passage leading downwards...
