Natasha sat down beside her bed and said gently, "This is Panyan Town. I am a doctor here. You can just call me Natasha. You have been lying in my clinic for a whole day."
Chapter 50 There is never a shortage of bad news here
All day?!
Wait, I slept for that long?
"No, I feel fine, nothing wrong..."
After recovering from her shock, Xing immediately shook her head, indicating that she was fine. After hesitating for a while, she decided to ask the amiable female doctor about her current situation: "Well, I want to ask..."
"Didi——!"
Just then, Xing's cell phone suddenly rang, instantly interrupting her thoughts.
The girl was slightly startled, then took out a mobile phone from the folding space, on which was a text message sent by Yilu.
"Ilu: Where are you now? Are those Silvermane Guards still chasing you?"
"Ilu:?"
"..."
"Ilu: Are you safe now?"
"Yilu: Oh, Danheng replied to me, I know what your situation is now."
"Yilu: When you wake up and see this message, please contact me as soon as possible."
"Ilu: Are you awake?"
Since Xing hadn't turned on his phone for the entire day, the interval between each text message was about an hour, and in total there were almost ten text messages.
It can be seen that Yilu is very worried about her safety.
"Uh……"
Seeing all this information, Xing looked up at Natasha.
"It looks like your friend on the ground is concerned about your safety. Don't worry about me, just talk to her first."
After saying that, Natasha stood up and went to the side to tidy up the clutter on the table. Seeing this, Xing continued to look down at his mobile phone, edited a text message and sent it.
"Xing: I'm fine now, thank you for your concern~(*^▽^*)"
Not long after, she received a reply from the other party.
「Ilu: I’m glad you’re okay」
"Ilu: I just returned from a train and told Uncle Yang and the others about the Zerg."
"Ilu: The current situation of this planet is very dangerous. There may be a large number of dormant insects underground. If you are still in the lower area, please tell the people there not to continue mining the earth's marrow deeper underground."
"This……"
Xing was slightly stunned when he saw the message sent by Yilu.
Bugs? Underground?
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, she quickly asked Natasha beside her: "Doctor Natasha, is this the lower level area?"
"Yes."
Hearing this, Natasha glanced at her and said with a bit of helplessness in her tone: "This is the underground place that has been sealed off by those people above ground for more than ten years. It is different from the glamorous world above. The residents here make a living by digging tunnels and mining."
"My friend just sent me a text message. She said there might be a lot of danger hidden underground..."
The gray-haired girl relayed the message from Ilu to Natasha with a serious look. After hearing that there might be a kind of termite called "Amber Sun" underground, Natasha couldn't help but frown, holding her temple with one hand and lowering her head into deep thought.
"There is actually such a thing. I have never heard of it before..."
People in the lower areas rely on mining for their living. Asking them to stop mining is tantamount to cutting off their livelihood. After losing this job, it will be difficult for these miners to survive the harsh environment underground.
"If what you said is true, then the crisis facing the lower class district is already very serious. This is indeed not good news."
After thinking for a while, Natasha looked up at Xing and spread her hands with regret:
"Unfortunately, for people who have lived underground for many years, you people on the surface can't trust what they say. They won't give up mining for such an unfounded reason. Instead, they will suspect that you have ulterior motives and intend to undermine the stability of the underground world, unless you can provide enough evidence."
People living underground never lack bad news. In the eyes of most people, the so-called "insect plague" is far less serious than the threat of mineral depletion.
"Uh, is that true?"
Hearing Natasha's words, Xing showed an expression that said "I knew it would be like this."
Although they, as nameless guests, know the truth about this world, to those who have always lived in the lower class, they are just outsiders who have just arrived for less than a day.
Just think about it, a foreigner with a suspicious identity keeps saying that she knows more about the underground situation than the locals, and wants them to give up the mining job that they depend on for their livelihood. No one would believe what she says.
It seems that in order to stop the residents of the lower area from continuing to mine deeper into the earth, we must first find a way to gain their trust.
"Any other questions? If not, I'll go take care of other patients first."
"By the way, Dr. Natasha, what is the 'underground fire' you mentioned just now?"
"Underground Fire is a militia organization with volunteer characteristics. Like I said, you can think of them as the Silver Mane Iron Guards underground..."
The Silver Mane Guards underground...
Xing fell into deep thought.
It sounds like this organization called "Underground Fire" should have a significant leadership position in the lower district. It seems that we can go and talk to them about this matter.
"Thank you for telling me so much, Dr. Natasha."
"Haha, after all, these are not secrets. Just ask anyone in the lower level area and they can answer these questions for you."
Natasha smiled and said, "Okay, there are patients over there who need to change their dressings. I'll go take care of them. If there are no problems, you can go out and meet your friends."
……
Not far from Natasha's clinic, Xing met Sanyueqi who was playing games with the children. She was surrounded by enthusiastic children like a child king, and her popularity was quite high.
"It's a deal, let's play together... Uh, sorry, my good friend is here to see me, so I may not be able to play with you today... Oh, adult matters are so troublesome, let's play together another day when we have time~"
Noticing Xing standing nearby, Sanyueqi immediately returned to his normal state from being a "king of children".
After directing the children's attention elsewhere, she wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at the gray-haired girl who had appeared near her out of nowhere.
"when did you come?"
"Not long after, Sister March Seven~" Xing deliberately imitated a child's tone and acted coquettishly.
March 7: "..."
Tsk, this tone makes me want to punch her for some unknown reason.
"Cough cough!"
Noticing San Yue Qi's restless fist, Xing cleared his throat and returned to his normal tone: "Where's Dan Heng? Have you seen him?"
"As for him, the doctor said he was with that bad guy called Sambo. I looked around but couldn't find him. I was just about to ask these kids about his whereabouts."
"And you went to play with them?"
"Hey hehe~"
Sanyueqi scratched his hair a little embarrassedly: "There is no other way. They said that I must join an organization called the "Mole Party" before they would tell me the whereabouts of Sambo."
"Uh... Actually, you can just ask other passers-by."
Xing sighed helplessly, then pointed to the fight club in the distance: "I just asked someone on the roadside, and they said that Sambo just went there. Let's go find him."
"Ok!"
March Seven nodded, followed Xing's footsteps, and the two walked towards the direction of the fight club.
Chapter 51: Mining Crisis (Updated)
As soon as they reached the door of the club, they heard rumors from the people nearby:
"I heard that a black-haired guy has come to the club. He is invincible. Who is this guy?"
"I heard that this handsome guy is a master of the Silver Mane Guards. He's quite capable!"
"Nonsense! The Silver Mane Guards had already withdrawn from the underground. How could one of them suddenly come back?"
"..."
Listening to the gossip from the people nearby, Xing and Sanyueqi looked at each other.
"It seems that Dan Heng is here."
"Yes, let's go in and take a look."
As soon as they opened the door after paying for the tickets, a loud clamor broke into their ears. It was the shout of the organizer "Dr. Dig Dig". Xing looked in the direction of the ring and saw an acquaintance standing there who was very familiar to them.
"Brothers and sisters! The next match will be the most exciting, thrilling, and shocking match of the day!"
"The serious and powerful newcomer - "Cold-faced Little Blue Dragon"!"
"And his opponents are a team of emotionless, explosive machines! Praise to Master Swarovski!"
"Oh! Wait, this is... an unexpected situation has occurred, two spectators have broken into the octagonal cage! They seem to want to team up with "Cold-faced Little Green Dragon"! "
Dan Heng: "..."
When he noticed Sanyueqi and Xing rushing onto the stage and standing behind him, the corners of his mouth twitched, but soon returned to normal.
"woke up?"
"Ah."
"Yilu wants to talk to us. Let's talk in a deserted place after we get off the stage."
"it is good."
Xing pulled out a baseball bat with arcing light from the folded space, and smashed the iron sheets of the robots in front of him amid the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, winning the ring match easily.
"Come on, let's get out of here."
"Wait a minute, I think I saw him..."
"?"
"It's Sambo, there he is!"
Inadvertently noticing Sambo leaving the club with a gloomy face, Sanyueqi, who had just left the ring, took the lead and chased after him. Xing and Danheng followed closely behind and soon caught him in an empty alley.
"Um... Dear brothers and sisters, let's talk it out. Even if you want to fight, please don't hit my handsome face."
When he found that his front and back routes were blocked, Sambo's face suddenly fell and he quickly begged for mercy.
"Who wants to attack you? We are here to ask you for information."
San Yue Qi put his hands on his hips and said unhappily.
Although she really wanted to beat up this annoying guy in front of her, after all, it was he who took action at the critical moment and brought them to the lower area. She couldn't just beat him up without any explanation.
"Uh, what news do you want to know?"
Upon learning that the three men were not here to seek revenge on him, Sambo was stunned.
"Regarding the news about the Underworld, you are a local... you are very familiar with this place, and we hope you can introduce us to the leader of the Underworld."
Dan Heng expressionlessly took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Sang Bo: "Besides that, we need you to do us a favor."
"Who is this?"
Taking the business card handed over by Dan Heng and looking at the cute silver-haired girl's head portrait on it, Sang Bo blinked in surprise: "She is so beautiful, is she some big star in the galaxy?"
"She is our companion, her name is Yilu."
