Wen Yu did not say any admonishing words like "you will have no family if you die on Friday."
Wen Yu was not anyone's life mentor, nor did he wish to interfere in anyone's decisions. Moreover, he did not care to preach any reasoning...
These were indeed valid points, but sometimes, reasoning became useless—like when one was overwhelmed by hatred.
"I have already made arrangements for Friday. My subordinates will take care of it, and I also have friends in Beijing. There shouldn't be any problems on that side," said Lei.
Wen Yu was taken aback, not expecting Lei to have thought everything through. It seemed his determination was quite strong...
"Also, I have some subordinates who don't want to leave Africa. They will stay with me at the Hope Gathering Place..."
As Lei's voice gradually weakened, he understood that staying here meant only a dead end.
However, for some people, certain things were more important than life itself.
For example, the difficulty of leaving one's homeland, love, hatred, or simply being tired of living in this damned world...
In short, after saying these words, Lei saw that Wen Yu was not planning to speak further, so he hugged Friday and left the room.
He needed to organize the evacuation work.
...
Left alone in the room, Wen Yu furrowed his brows and pondered for a long time before connecting with the three-headed spirit pet through the bond.
"Did anything unexpected happen yesterday?"
In Wen Yu's speculation, since the Hope Gathering Place was attacked, it made no sense that the three mutated beast groups, which were stronger than the Hope Gathering Place, would not be attacked.
"Yesterday, a demonic creature sneaked into Phoenix Mountain."
"I'm also here, meow..."
"Woof, I also encountered one, and its strength seems quite formidable."
The leaders of the three mutated beast groups were indeed ambushed.
"And the result?"
"Dead, I ate it!"
"The corpse is almost bloated, meow!"
"It ran away, very quickly. I don't know what that demonic creature was thinking, it sneaked into my inner sanctum and bolted as soon as it saw me without saying a word."
Wen Yu was taken aback: "You didn't chase it?"
"No!"
The one-eyed creature replied confidently, "I was busy for most of the night, I was exhausted, so I sent Little Wilderness to chase it, but he couldn't catch up. What a waste!"
Hearing the complaints from the one-eyed creature, Wen Yu couldn't help but twitch his eyebrow.
This guy had dropped the ball at a critical moment!
Perhaps sensing Wen Yu's change in mental state, the one-eyed creature cautiously asked, "Big boss, what's wrong..."
Wen Yu couldn't help but rub his temples: "You all need to be careful. The demonic creature that appeared last night is the vanguard of the demonic clan attacking the African continent. The demonic clan is determined to conquer the African continent, and the war is about to begin. Sigh... In any case, I'll notify you of the specific situation later. For now, stick to the original plan, and be careful. Communicate with me promptly if anything happens."
"Understood!"
"Got it, meow."
Xing and Victor responded one after another, leaving only the one-eyed creature to react for a long time before finally realizing, "Sorry, big boss, I think I might have caused trouble..."
Not just "might have," but "definitely did!"
As the one-eyed creature had been one of Wen Yu's first spirit pets, its appearance and specific strength were surely recorded by the demonic clan. Why did the ancient demon responsible for assassinating the wilderness butcher run as soon as it saw the one-eyed creature?
It must have gone to report back. In other words, Wen Yu's current presence on the African continent had been completely exposed to the demonic clan.
Thinking of this, Wen Yu sighed and directly severed the bond with the three spirit pets. He took out his communication device and dialed Lin Haifeng.
...
"What's going on?"
Lin Haifeng's tone was somewhat hurried, perhaps because there were indeed too many issues at hand.
