Now there are lights in and out of these caves, and I can see a lot of wanderers shuttling through them, looking heavily guarded.

From now on, the freedom of movement of several of us, including Qin Yao, was strictly restricted, and even Qin Yao's personal guards were not allowed to go with them.

Qin Yao whispered to remind us that it was best not to make too many superfluous movements on the next journey, and not even pay too much attention to the expressions of looking around, otherwise it would be easy to arouse suspicion.

Although we were not accompanied by Qin Yao's escort team and the wanderers sent by Xiao Yi before, there were more new wanderers in this command headquarters accompanying us, and it could be seen that these people were very suspicious of us except for Liu Yong and Qin Yao, and they kept spying on us with their peripheral eyes along the way, and I was even a little worried that our human skin masks would be revealed.

Fortunately, these people were only wary in their eyes, and they didn't say much until we came to the top of the mountain near the elevator.

That's right, if you want to get to the headquarters area halfway up the mountain, you have to take this small elevator supported by a cable.

This thing is actually quite scary at first glance, the volume of a single elevator is actually similar to the general elevator, but the terrible thing is that this thing has no protective fence, and people standing on it feel like they will be blown away by a gust of wind at any time.

There are five or six such elevators built side by side, and our group was accompanied by two wanderers all the way to the foot of the mountain from the ground more than ten meters of height space, and then go up there is no need for elevators, but there is a kind of direct excavation of the plank road and iron chain bridge combined with the passage, these "traffic facilities" seem to be not dangerous and abnormal on May Day, but those wanderers walk up like walking on the ground, it seems that they have been accustomed to such a terrain.

I am even more convinced that these works could not have been completed by the wanderers alone, and even if they had more manpower, it would still be impossible to complete these precipitous facilities without special tools and techniques.

Sure enough, He Yunsong quickly recognized this place, he said that this should be the main part of the Qinhuai Mountain Tourist Area before the disaster, these plank roads and chain bridges are actually more used for tourism purposes, and they were not as dangerous as they are now, which should be due to the lack of maintenance after the disaster and the self-transformation of wanderers to finally present the current "spectacle".

In addition to the access paths themselves, the fortifications on these half-way slopes were also very adequate, and I saw a lot of shooting platforms built on the mountain, equipped with small earthen cannons and many shooting holes, and there were also heavy logs and oil pouring devices that were used in the city defense.

There are even preparations for psionic energy defenses here, and almost every short distance you can see the kind of special protective clothing that is specially designed to defend against psionic energy.

Qin Yao said that these protective suits had never been seen before, and this time they appeared here, and it was because of the proximity of voodoo that the people in the headquarters were worried.

All in all, the level of defense here is like that, and the people here look much more serious than the loiterers elsewhere.

It took another twenty minutes to walk up the chain bridge and boardwalk, as well as the steep stone steps that ascended, before we finally arrived at a checkpoint.

Here we were stopped by a couple of guarded loiters, who told us to hand over all our weapons and equipment.

I had expected this, and after we had left all our weapons in the outpost, the men actually checked us again with metal detectors before agreeing to let us go.

Originally, I thought that Liu Yong's identity was enough to simplify these procedures, but this was not the case, they seemed to treat everyone equally, even Qin Yao was no exception.

In fact, by now, I can already feel that although Qin Yao is the leader of the No. 2 Stronghold of Life, he is probably just a small minion here.

Shortly after passing the outpost, we reached the vicinity of the final headquarters, and after leading our loiters to show the pass to the loiter guards, they began to report inside.

The Last ...... We waited for more than ten minutes before we were instructed to enter the meeting, and then they opened the last stone door of the headquarters, revealing a serpentine corridor like a tombway, with eerie, ever-lamp-like candlesticks reflected on the walls on either side.

I almost thought I would see the murals on the walls on either side, but the walls here are smooth and there is no trace of them.

Through the corridor, we finally came to a small stone chamber of less than 20 square meters, from which more passages extended to the deeper part of the mountain.

At this time, the wanderers who followed us retreated, and I saw a rickety old man sitting against the inner wall of the stone chamber.

"Is this the leader of the Alliance?" I asked in a whisper.

Qin Yao shook his head: "This is Mu Yun, the city lord of the No. 4 stronghold of Life, who plays the role of a military advisor in the command headquarters. ”

I think it's a little ridiculous, but there are still military advisors among these wanderers, and I'm afraid they're also dog-headed military advisors......

But this old man can't be underestimated, you must know that the wanderer is completely in compliance with the law of survival of the fittest, if you can't create value for the team, then you will be abandoned and obliterated.

Now this old man looks much older than Mr. Qin, and he feels that he is at least sixty or seventy years old, at such an age, physical work is something he wants to contribute, so all he can rely on is his brain.

And he also achieved the position of "mayor", which shows that this person does have two brushes.

This old man Mu Yun lowered his head and was fiddling with his wrench, and when he saw us coming in, he looked up at us a little absentmindedly, and finally fixed his eyes on Liu Yong.

That's exactly what I wanted, and if this old man stared at the rest of us, I'd be afraid that the human skin mask would be exposed......

This old man's eyes were bright, like eagle eyes, not at all like the demeanor that should be at this age, Liu Yong seemed to be a little hairy by him, and said impatiently: "We are here to see the alliance leader!"

Mu Yun let out a dry laugh and said, "You are Liu Yong, I have always heard of your name, and I finally met you today." ”

It seems that this old man should have only seen Liu Yong's photo.

"Haven't you seen me when I came to the Qinhuai Mountains before?" Liu Yong seemed a little surprised.

Mu Yun shook his head: "At that time, my body was at its weakest, and I couldn't move at all, but I have only improved a little recently." ”

He paused, then continued, "But I didn't use any crooked tricks. ”

You don't need to guess this "crooked trick" to know that it refers to the "Gu worm virus".

"When will the Alliance Leader come?" asked Liu Yong.

"Don't worry. Mu Yun said: "The alliance leader has a lot of opportunities, and it is not easy to spare some time, especially now that the voodoo offensive is imminent, we still have a lot of work to do. ”

Then the old man looked at Qin Yao and said, "I believe that Miss Qin understands this best. ”

Qin Yao didn't seem to dare to be too presumptuous with this old man, and began to say in an official tone: "What Mr. Mu said is extremely true, since we are here, then don't be afraid to wait, you can let the alliance leader take care of everything before coming to see us." ”

Mu Yun nodded in satisfaction, and then raised his hand to signal us to sit on the stone bench in front of him.

I scolded in my heart, these guys don't have a good capital, and their mother's shelf is not small, and it's almost time for the envoys of the two countries to meet.

But now I can only endure it, because our identities are Liu Yong's followers, even if I have a problem, I can only endure it.

Fortunately, I had already secretly warned Liu Yong about some key issues that needed to be mentioned before this, and Liu Yong was forced by Gechai's threats to do so.

Liu Yong soon began to ask if we could join the Wanderer's Resistance Alliance Front, I thought that these guys would definitely welcome all the allies to join, but this Mu Yun looked like he was examining us and said: "If you want to join the Alliance Front, you can't do it without strength, I heard that after you left Jiuhe City, you have been living in a fixed place, and Jiuhe City has been ransacked by a group of unknown Burmese and later Voodoo, both manpower and material resources are not enough to maintain normal operation, then I may ask...... What good cards do you have in your hand now?"

Liu Yong stumbled suddenly, and I could see that Liu Yong was still a little annoyed by such an attitude, after all, almost all the wanderers I had seen, including "leaders" like Qin Yao and Xiao Yi, had great respect for Liu Yongke.

Fortunately, Qin Yao relieved the siege in time: "Mr. Mu, although they don't have the strength now, they can unite with our Life No. 2, Liu Yong's personal value is beyond doubt." ”

"Miss Qin, you are very smart, in this way, you can smoothly become a member of the Alliance Front, right?" Mu Yun's eyes became a little unpredictable......

Qin Yao's abacus is also fine enough, so she not only rounded the game for us, but also gave her real benefits.

After Qin Yao heard this, a trace of anger passed through his face, but this expression was fleeting, as if it had never appeared, and after Qin Yao quickly recovered his demeanor, he changed into a smirk and said, "Now that we are facing a serious threat from voodoo, shouldn't we unite all living forces?"

"You're wrong. Mu Yun shook his dry fingers and said: "The stability of the defense line of the Qinhuai Mountain Range this time is related to the situation in the rear of the entire Dongkou Province, if we lose, we will be forced to retreat to the wild area south of the mountain range, which is even more unfavorable for resisting the invasion of voodoo, so this time the front must strive to be stable, and if we want to be stable, then the groups that join cannot be mixed, we need to select elites." ”

"Am I not an elite yet?" Liu Yong asked sharply.

"Mr. Liu doesn't need to be in a hurry. Mu Yun let out a voice that was infinitely close to a sneer and said, "I don't mean to deny your personal ability, it's just ...... In such a large-scale war, the power of one person is limited after all, and I have no objection to your joining, but if you want to get the position of a member of the coalition camp, you must come up with sufficient capital. Other words...... If you do not have the capital, you will have to be incorporated into our chain of command in your personal capacity. ”

I finally understood when I heard this, it turned out that this guy meant that if we don't have our own living force, then we can only be their pawns, and if we want to be treated as equals, we must have our own armed forces.

This is something I didn't consider before, and I blame Liu Yong's "personal aura" is too powerful.

And the "capital" that this old man said is probably not a small amount, even if I count all our people, it may not be able to meet his requirements, because even Qin Yao's second stronghold of life has not been able to successfully let them join.

"Then what do you mean? We came all the way here to help you defend ourselves, and then you plan to turn us away?" Liu Yong's words were now completely "from the bottom of his heart", because the old man Mu Yun had just denied his personal value, which caused Liu Yong to no longer think that he was in league with the wanderer.

"It seems that you don't have any capital in your hands, right?" Mu Yun said quietly.

"No, it's just us!" Liu Yong said angrily.

Qin Yao reminded in a low voice on the side, "Aren't there still people in Evergreen Valley?"

Who knew that Mu Yun actually laughed out loud after hearing this: "That little bit of people is far from enough, not to mention that the people of Evergreen Valley have extremely poor combat effectiveness, I am afraid that they will be scared to pee their pants before they see the people of the Voodoo Sect." ”

Qin Yao's face also became even more gloomy, and she stepped aside and stopped saying a word.

"Well, I've got a pretty good idea of what you're doing. Mu Yun's gaze swept around the rest of us before continuing: "Please wait, I'll go and report some information to the Alliance Leader, and Lord Meng will come to meet you later." ”

After the old man left, our surroundings fell silent for a moment, and I could clearly hear Liu Yong's heavy and angry gasps.

In the end, Liu Yong couldn't help but scold first: "Where did this old immortal come from!"

"Shhhh

"I think these people owe the voodoo cult to clean up, and when they are scared, they should come to beg us!" Liu Yong ignored it and continued to scold.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps from the passage where Mu Yun had left just now, and then a voice sounded: "Old Mr. Mu speaks more uprightly, don't be surprised." ”

Then I saw a young woman in a fur suit come out.
