The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 461
Chapter 461 Underground Palace
Hearing Li Li’s reply, Fu Sheng frowned deeply. He knew that this woman would be more difficult to deal with, but he didn’t expect that she would be so difficult to deal with.
Lin Tian had always been arrogant as he walked. Seeing that this ungrateful woman was actually so ignorant of the times, he immediately smiled and said, “Even if it was a threat, it would still be too gentle.”
“Minister Li, I originally thought that you were smart enough to give you a chance to survive, but now it seems that we are thinking too much…”
Hearing this, Li Li’s expression immediately sank. She immediately said, “Give me a way to live. Your tone isn’t small. What do you mean? A trick to bluff?”
Although Li Li’s words were tough, the change in her expression was obvious. Moreover, the representative of the Five Cities Alliance had already leaned to her side. The distance between the two sides was only a few steps away from each other, and the other’s position was even more tacit and exquisite.
Fu Sheng and Luo Yaqin slowly leaned against the railing on the left of Li Li and Li Hu, while Lin Tian, Yi Yu and Jin Lin leaned against the railing on the right.
After pausing for a moment, Yang Tianzong brought Yang Qian to the front of Li Li. Left, right, and front of Li Li were instantly wrapped up.
The atmosphere became tense in an instant, and a trace of fear appeared on Li Li’s calm and arrogant face.
Although she quickly stabilized herself, her momentum had already been broken. Yang Tianzong, who was standing in front of her, also gave her a proper advice.
“Miss Li, we don’t mean to bluff, nor do we have the habit of bluffing…”
“We have indeed come with friendship. The friendship of the five cities is indeed precious. Of course, it will only bring sincerity to our friends.”
“Therefore, Miss Li should be aware of her own situation and the situation in Heavenly Rock City. After all, not everyone can have such an opportunity …!”
“By the way, Miss Li’s current value may not be as important as you think …”
Li Li, who was originally slightly panicked and even a little worried, quickly pouted and calmed down after hearing Yang Tianzong’s words.
Then, he smiled indifferently and said, “I naturally don’t know the situation, but I always feel that there is a trace of danger …”
“Of course I have sincerity. As for the value you guys are talking about, I’m afraid you’re underestimating me.”
Hearing this, everyone in the Five Cities Alliance revealed expressions of joy. Obviously, the fish had already taken the bait. The representatives knew very clearly that Minister Li was going to reveal something to show his value.
Yang Tianzong immediately smiled and said, “Haha! In that case, I’m a little curious about Miss Li’s so-called value…”
Li Li was quite straightforward as she gracefully smiled and said, “Haha… I wonder if everyone has heard of the underground palace in Heavenly Rock City…”
“Underground palace…?”
Hearing this, everyone in the Five Cities Alliance was quite surprised. It was clear that most of them were unaware of the so-called underground palace.
Only Azure Dragon City’s Lin Tian asked suspiciously, “Is your so-called underground palace the nest of the two queen ants of Heavenly Rock City?”
Hearing this, Li Li said with a hint of playfulness, “I really do know. It seems that Azure Dragon City has done a lot of homework on Heavenly Rock Intelligence.”
“Your answer can only be said to be one point correct. There are indeed two queen ants and the nest of the ant race.”
“But that’s not the main point. The main point is that this palace is also the secret warehouse of Heavenly Rock City, as well as the sanctuary for high-ranking relatives.”
“Furthermore, it is also the hub of the underground network of Heavenly Rock City. It connects to countless underground facilities of Heavenly Rock City. More than 80% of them pass through it. It can be said to be connected in all directions!”
“Of course, there are many tunnels in the underground city that lead to all parts of Heavenly Rock City …!”
“What do you think? Adding on the significance of these floors, there’s no need for me to say anything more about the strategic significance of this underground palace.”
As soon as Li Li finished speaking, the auras of the people from the Five Cities Alliance began to float. It was clear that the representatives of the Five Cities Alliance knew the value of this underground palace.
Hearing this, Yang Tianzong’s heart had already bloomed with laughter, but he still pretended to be stupid and said, “Your meaning is somewhat strange.”
“Could it be that you are in charge of such a confidential underground city?”
This time, he didn’t bring Li Li back. Lin Tian on the right immediately said, “Impossible, you can’t fool me about this. This so-called underground castle has always been under the control of two queen ants and a large number of ant races …!”
Li Li did not refute her words at all. She only smiled and said, “What if I say that the two queen ants are both asleep and I am in charge of the entire underground city for the time being?”
“How is it? This value, or rather, this message, is enough to show my sincerity…”
When Lin Tian heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes. He immediately smiled and said, “If this is true, then it is indeed sincere enough.”
“However, how can I believe that you’ve really taken control of this underground palace in the span of two sentences? I’m afraid you’re being a little reckless…”
Li Li chuckled again, “I only explained once. After the two queen ants were seriously injured, they forcefully commanded the colony to defend against the corpses, and even their consciousness fell asleep.”
“In a short period of time, it will be difficult to recover. The entire ant race, apart from simply transporting zombie bodies and simple patrolling, is guarding the lowest floor of the underground castle, guarding their respective queen ants.”
“Furthermore, everyone knows that most of the people in the R&D department don’t have much combat strength. Therefore, all the personnel of the R&D department, including me, are classified as relatives and have all been transferred to the underground city.”
“As a newly promoted official, I will naturally become the supreme commander of the underground city. I wonder if you are satisfied with this explanation?”
Although Li Li was asking the crowd, his eyes stared fixedly at Lin Tian on the right.
In fact, it wasn’t just her. The representatives of the other cities also looked at him. After all, they all knew very well that the truth of this matter in front of them depended on Lin Tian, who knew the most about Heavenly Rock City.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Tian was quite calm. After pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice, “That makes sense. Looks like Miss Li still has some sincerity in making friends with us five cities.”
Everyone from the Five Cities Alliance heard Lin Tian’s reply and understood that what Li Li had just said was most likely true.
Great, this is a great opportunity. It’s perfect to have such an opportunity to descend upon them at this time.
There’s no need to say. This Li Li must be taken down. No matter if it’s coercion or temptation, no matter what, she must be taken down.
This was because taking her was equivalent to taking control of the underground city. In addition, with a certain amount of operation, they could even achieve it, allowing their elite evolvers and gods to unknowingly appear at all key positions in Heavenly Rock City.
At that time, putting down suspension bridges or destroying city walls from the inside would be countless times stronger than charging in from the outside!
Moreover, there were zombies outside and powerful enemies inside. At that time, Heavenly Rock City would definitely fall into a desperate situation. The hearts of the soldiers and civilians in the city would also collapse in an instant. The city would only be destroyed in an instant…!
A plan to wipe out the family was nothing more than this…
At this moment, the hearts of the people from the Five Cities Alliance were filled with joy. For a moment, they thought for a long time. Only Fu Sheng, who was standing on the left side, continued to ask calmly in a soft voice.
“Miss Li, if you don’t get up early, it’s no good. Our Five Cities Alliance has always had nothing to do with you. Furthermore, you just said that you don’t know where you are right now.”
“Then, dare I ask Miss Li, why did you help my Five Cities Alliance? Or rather, why did you abandon your old employer and lean towards us?”
Hearing this, Li Li smiled indifferently and said, “Those who know the times are the heroes. With the abilities of everyone present, they should have gathered some information about me.”
“Let’s put it this way. I, Li Li, always take the initiative and don’t like to be passive. I like to fight for it myself, or get close to it…”
“Also, since we met, I have never made it clear that I will stand on your side.”
“As for what I said just now, I only want to tell you my sincerity and where I am now.”
“On the other hand, your mouths are full of friendship and sincerity, but your hearts are filled with suspicion. And so far, you haven’t revealed any of your foundation. Do you want an empty-gloved white wolf?”
“Or do you all think that you can use force to make me, Li Li, submit in Heavenly Rock City?”
At the end of her sentence, Li Li’s eyes were filled with disdain. It seemed that the performance of the people from the Five Cities Alliance had caused her to be quite disappointed.
Everyone in the Five Cities Alliance was stunned when they heard this. Then, the gazes of the delegates converged. However, in a short moment, a consensus had been reached
The next person to speak was Yang Tianzong, who had always been a disgrace. He only smiled and said, “Aiya … Miss Li, you’re a bit out of the ordinary. This is in Heavenly Rock City. At present, we don’t seem to have any reason to use force against Miss Li …”
“As for the empty-handed white wolf, it naturally doesn’t exist. However, we don’t know what Miss Li wants right now.”
Hearing this, Li Li immediately pouted and smiled indifferently, “Please, we haven’t reached that point yet…”
“Didn’t you just say that? I still don’t know my situation …!”
“Then tell me, I’m quite curious as to how far your Five Cities Alliance has come…”
“And how do you plan to concoct this? It seems weak, but there is still a decisive attack from the Heavenly Rock faction …!”
The moment Li Li said those words, it could be said that a single stone stirred up thousands of waves. The gazes of the people from the Five Cities Alliance gathered once again…
