Yuan Munye was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this, not quite registering it.

He looked at Director Chen, then said, "Director Chen, just say what's on your mind. I'm a straightforward person and like to get right to the point."

"Haha..."

Director Chen quickly laughed and said, "Captain Yuan, the best thing I've ever done in my life is to have you join our station and become an unsalaried member."

"Director Chen, you flatter me."

"No, not at all, Captain Yuan. When I retire in the future, I'll hand this whole station over to you."

Director Chen said with a smile.

Actually, Director Chen wasn't that old yet and would definitely have opportunities for promotion in the future.

Yuan Munye was about to say something.

But then Director Chen suddenly said, "Look at what I'm saying, it really doesn't sound right. With Captain Yuan's abilities, you'll definitely have a limitless future and it's possible you'll even enter one of the Three Great Cities."

Since arriving in this world, Yuan Munye had constantly heard people talking about the Three Great Cities.

But he didn't really understand them.

He only knew that it wasn't a place for poor people.

Basically, the people who could live there had some kind of status.

As for the cities outside, they were just places where people could barely survive.

Even before, it wasn't easy for people from Fire City to move to Yun City.

It could only be said that this world was too cruel.

After Director Chen finished speaking, he noticed that Yuan Munye hadn't responded, so he asked, "Captain Yuan, is something on your mind?"

Yuan Munye chuckled and said, "No, nothing."

"Director, what exactly are the Three Great Cities like?"

Yuan Munye suddenly asked.

Director Chen smiled and said, "The Three Great Cities are heavily guarded. Ordinary people can't get in. They're very safe. Even the sky there is different from here. These places of ours are heavily eroded by evil spirits, so our nights are much longer than our days. Some places are completely dark, with no daytime at all."

"So you're saying that life in the Three Great Cities is completely normal?"

"Normal, completely normal. After all, they have the empire's best paranormal special forces. Someone with my strength could probably only be an ordinary member there."

Director Chen said self-deprecatingly.

Yuan Munye frowned, saying nothing.

Wasn't this a form of plunder, plundering from high to low?

The people inside were already living the best life, but they were still taking resources from the outside.

Yuan Munye suddenly felt complicated.

He didn't know what to say.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Munye finally sighed and said nothing more.

The car drove forward and soon left the city.

Yuan Munye was a little confused. He didn't know why Director Chen was taking him outside the city, so he asked, "Director Chen, why are we here?"

"To take a look at the land we reclaimed last night. Do you see the people outside?"

Director Chen asked Yuan Munye.

Yuan Munye nodded and said, "I see them."

Indeed, many people were busy outside.

They were all moving things out. Yuan Munye could roughly guess what they were doing.

They were probably building defenses.

And there were also some paranormal team members stationed outside.

Thousands of people were busy outside.

It looked very lively.

Director Chen said, "Some of these people who came out today may not have left Jiang City in ten years, and some may not have been out here in decades. This small piece of land we reclaimed is of great significance to us. It can help us increase our living space."

Yuan Munye nodded.

Five kilometers of land around the city wasn't very big, but it wasn't very small either.

If put into production, it could definitely produce a lot of food.

Yuan Munye also agreed with this.

"When we have more food, our human race can have more children. Among these children, there will definitely be many talented ones. Then our human race's strength will also increase, and it's only a matter of time before we wipe out the evil spirits in this world."

Director Chen's eyes were full of hope.

Yuan Munye also felt that there was hope.

However, this hope would take a long time, but it was indeed necessary to prepare for a protracted war.

After a pause, Yuan Munye said, "Director Chen, your wish will definitely come true."

After Yuan Munye finished speaking, Director Chen looked at Yuan Munye and said, "Captain Yuan, maybe I didn't have much confidence before, but after seeing you, my confidence has increased. I think your achievements will definitely be great in the future, but I hope you don't forget our Jiang City when you achieve success. If you enter the Three Great Cities, just transferring a group of people out from there will definitely help us gain more living space."

"Why do the people in the Three Great Cities completely occupy all the high-quality living space?"

As soon as Yuan Munye finished speaking, Director Chen's expression changed.

He made a gesture of silence to Yuan Munye, signaling him not to speak.

Lest someone overhear.

It wouldn't be a good thing if these words reached the ears of the Three Great Cities.

Yuan Munye gently hummed in agreement, not saying anything more.

Yuan Munye wasn't a hot-blooded youth. After all, he had experienced a lot of things.

Naturally, he was much more mature than some people.

Now that he didn't have the strength, complaining or challenging the upper echelons would only do him harm and no good.

Because in this world, many things have never been based on talking.

But on strength.

With absolute strength comes the right to speak.

Without strength, one would only be slapped in the face or even be annihilated.

Yuan Munye looked at the busy scene and was momentarily lost in thought.

This made him want to know more and more about what happened to the Diyu (hell).

Why was there still no movement even now?

But Yuan Munye still had to kill five level-five evil spirits to be promoted to the position of Cheng Huang (City God).

In this position, Yuan Munye could find out what the situation in Diyu was.

But at this time, Yuan Munye was still a little uneasy. 138read.net

Actually, dealing with level-five evil spirits was definitely not difficult.

But the opponent he encountered last night made Yuan Munye feel unsure.

There were still many strong evil spirits in this world.

These evil spirits were hiding in the darkness, ready to devour human cultivators at any time.

Moreover, even if he contacted Diyu, Yuan Munye guessed that Diyu was probably useless.

Otherwise, why had it been silent for so many years?
