Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 1490: Chapter 823: Luring the Snake Out of Its Hole

“Brother Liang, we just received news that the Floating Island was attacked?”

Zhao Kai was the first to arrive. As soon as he entered and saw Liang Yuan, he quickly asked.

Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said, “Mengya Company sent a master over, but I’ve already dealt with them.”

“I got information from her that Mengya and Kerry Technology have joined forces. This time, not only this master came, but there are also two planning to attack us from the water.”

“The attack from above was just a diversionary tactic.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai’s expression relaxed slightly, and he quickly said, “We’ve been investigating the nearby situation recently but haven’t strictly scrutinized the merchant ships coming and going.”

“We did find some spies, but none were from Mengya or Kerry Technology, so we don’t know how they plan to deal with us.”

Liang Yuan nodded and said, “They definitely won’t be as reckless as last time. They will surely investigate thoroughly before making a move.”

“We need to find their hiding spot so we can defeat them all at once.”

While the two were talking, Han Xiangman and others came in as well.

Then everyone gathered together and started chatting.

At this moment, Liang Yuan suddenly thought of something and said, “Zhao Kai, hand the Heart Core of Miyuan Rainforest to Xiangman. I have the Heart Core of Mist City, which suits you better.”

Zhao Kai and Han Xiangman were both surprised.

Zhao Kai said excitedly, “The Heart Core of Mist City? Then Ling Yurong…”

Liang Yuan smiled, “She doesn’t need it.”

Ling Yurong’s cultivation method is different from other Superpower Users.

She is an Ancient Superpower User, and the best way to enhance is to quickly find her Spiritual Split Thought and absorb it to rapidly restore her former power.

The reason she resides in Mist City is that it’s an Ice Attribute island, inherently matching her attribute.

Most of the Skills she exhibits are related to the Ice Attribute, so naturally, she resides there.

Moreover, as the strongest fighter under Liang Yuan, she is more powerful than anyone else. Guarding an Ice Attribute Floating Island is just perfect.

Now that Zhao Kai has returned, Liang Yuan is naturally inclined to hand over the management of the Ice Attribute Floating Island to him.

Miyuan Rainforest is a Water Attribute Floating Island, and Han Xiangman, being a Water Attribute Superpower User, is the most formidable Water Attribute user in Yangshan, making it reasonable to hand Miyuan Rainforest over to her.

Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that Li Qinghua has now returned from Yellow Earth Divine Origin.

Being the Heart Core master of Mirage Snake Space, Liang Yuan feels more assured having him oversee Mirage Snake Space now.

After all, he is a Space Ability User who can exert his strongest Combat Power only on the Floating Island of Mirage Snake Space.

As a result, Yellow Earth Divine Origin is now vacant.

This Yellow Earth Divine Origin actually should have a top Earth Attribute Superpower User stationed there.

However, looking over Yangshan Shelter, there are many Earth Attribute Superpower Users, but in terms of top-tier combat power, only Shi Haizhu is suitable.

After pondering, Liang Yuan finally decided to have Shi Haizhu oversee Yellow Earth Divine Origin.

He also sent the Earth Attribute prodigy Zhong Mountain to be Shi Haizhu’s aide.

It’s said this lad now follows Shi Haizhu, calling him his master.

Over at Dark Abyss Mouth, Wu Ying naturally oversees, while Zhang Peng, who was supposed to assist, has been distracted since receiving news from Wen Lili and can’t manage matters there.

Seeing this, Liang Yuan can only promote two young Dark Attribute individuals to assist Wu Ying.

These two youngsters are called Yin Jiuyue and Chen Guangming, who have always lived on the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth and are Wu Ying’s trusted disciples.

Besides, Liang Yuan has retained Li Hao as the mayor of Fan Mountain, continuing to maintain the security system there.

Nie Xin, the girl, is somewhat tired of the environment in Dark Abyss Mouth. After living in Mirage Snake Space for a while, she now heads to Miyuan Rainforest to experience life there.

And at Cloud Mist Island, Liang Yuan reassigned the positions of Zhang Yujiang and Feng Jiangong to Ding Yan for management, with Feng Jiangong assisting.

Zhang Yujiang, the crafty old fox, was dispatched by Liang Yuan to the Agricultural Department.

This old fellow is a Wood Attribute Superpower User; if he’s not contributing to the Agriculture Department, how could he interfere in military affairs?

Currently, each of the six Floating Islands has corresponding candidates stationed.

Mirage Snake Space is managed by Li Qinghua, Mist City by Zhao Kai, Miyuan Rainforest by Han Xiangman, Yellow Earth Divine Origin by Shi Haizhu, Cloud Mist Island by Ding Yan, and Dark Abyss Mouth by Wu Ying.

Undoubtedly, these individuals were among the earliest followers of Liang Yuan.

Moreover, each has established their own teams, capable of quickly assuming the responsibilities of an Island Lord.

Liang Yuan is finally freed; he will no longer be confined to the Shelter.

With everyone in place, Liang Yuan was the first to speak, “You all know the situation over at the Floating Island, right?”

“Mengya Company sent a master to attack our Floating Island.”

“But this is only the beginning. According to my investigation, the attack on the Floating Island is just a tactic to lure us away.”

“Once we mobilize troops to the Floating Island, their forces remaining in Flood World will undoubtedly swarm out and attack our Floating Islands.”

“So they must be nearby!”

Ding Yan couldn’t help but say, “But we’ve searched tens of kilometers around without discovering any enemy presence.”

Li Qinghua also frowned, “Unless they have some sort of special hiding method.”

Liang Yuan said deeply, “Have you searched underwater?”

Han Xiangman quickly said, “The naval fleet has sent divers to search the nearby seas thoroughly but found no enemies.”

Liang Yuan frowned. As of now, whether above or below the water, there’s no sign of the enemy.

But how is this possible?

Since the enemy has initiated their plan, and Liu Qinghong has already launched an attack on the Floating Island, it indicates they might strike at any time.

As long as we mobilize our forces and fly to the Floating Island, with this place left vulnerable, the enemy will surely seize the opportunity.

And this premise is that the opponent must be nearby!

“Where could they be?”

Liang Yuan’s thoughts raced, his knuckles lightly tapping the table.

At this moment, Wu Ying couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Liang, could the enemy you captured who attacked the Floating Island know something?”

Liang Yuan slightly shook his head, “I asked, she split up with her accomplices near Ji’an City.”

“These people agreed that once the large-scale ships from Yangshan leave the base heading for the Floating Island, they will seize the opportunity to act.”

Upon hearing this, Li Qinghua suddenly had a thought and couldn’t help but say, “Mr. Liang, I have an idea that might help us find these people.”

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow, “What plan?”

“They’re playing the strategy of luring the tiger out of the mountain with us, so why don’t we lure the snake out of its hole?”

“Hmm?”

Liang Yuan felt intrigued, “Go on.”

“We can send out a large number of ships into the Thundercloud, pretending to send them to support the Floating Island.”

“In this way, the opponent might believe it and take action, exposing their whereabouts!”

Li Qinghua’s words immediately sparked discussions among everyone.

“Captain Qinghua’s plan isn’t bad at all, I think we can give it a try.”

“Indeed, if the opponent is really waiting for an opportunity, we can deliberately give them this chance and lure them to take the initiative to attack.”

“That’s a brilliant lure the snake out of its hole!”

“This method is clever.”

Liang Yuan, having heard the plan, was also somewhat persuaded.

“This plan is indeed not bad. Does anyone else have additions?”

Han Xiangman immediately said, “I think we can have the ships pretend to leave but actually hide in the clouds, ready to return for support at any time.”

“Additionally, we need to deploy a large number of submersibles underwater, ready to counterattack at any moment.”

Ding Yan shook her head, saying, “I disagree, since the opponent has been waiting, they probably already have means to monitor us.”

“Hiding submersibles underwater might alert the opponent.”

“Moreover, it’s very difficult for warships at the port to set sail, I worry the opponent’s spies have already infiltrated our major ports.”

Everyone expressed their views one by one, gradually perfecting this plan to lure the snake out.

Finally, after a unanimous discussion, it was decided to proceed with Li Qinghua’s plan, allowing most of the ships to feign departure from within the island.

Meanwhile, outside the island, they were to appear fully prepared, as it would be unusual for the Floating Island to face a crisis without any alertness from the Floating Island side.

This plan was agreed upon by most present.

Liang Yuan immediately said, “Since everyone is in agreement, let’s proceed with this plan.”

“You each guard your own Floating Island, and I will dispatch our air force to leave.”

“Yes!”

At once, everyone quickly left the conference room and hurried back to their respective Floating Islands to prepare for combat.

Half an hour later, a sharp piercing noise sounded.

Immediately, from the Mirage Snake Space and several other Floating Islands, a large number of ships roared into the sky, piercing through the clouds and rain curtains.

This formation immediately sent shockwaves through everyone on the six Floating Islands.

No, five, as the Floating Island of the Abyssal Mouth was always black and didn’t allow any light, so people on that island couldn’t see.

Only the patrol teams outside the island could see this scene clearly.

Fortunately, Wu Ying had already instructed everyone in the patrol teams to stay at their posts and await orders.

“Did something happen?”

“Why did a lot of ships fly out?”

“I don’t know, go have a look quickly.”

“The port is closed, no comings or goings allowed.”

“Oh dear, could it be that a war’s about to break out?”

On each Floating Island, the port was bustling, and everyone started discussing.

Within the crowd, a few men quietly withdrew and quickly headed to secluded places.

Soon, strange ripples spread from them at a special frequency to the outside of the six Floating Islands.

These ripples were very bizarre, not belonging to any form of electromagnetic wave, so Yangshan’s surveillance equipment couldn’t detect them at all.

Meanwhile, just twenty kilometers from the six Floating Islands, on an ostensibly endless water surface, a large dark shadow spread across the undulating waves.

As the waves rose and fell, the shadow slightly twisted.

The invisible ripples quickly spread to this dark shadow area.

An unexpected woman’s laughter suddenly came from within the shadow area.

“Hehe, finally they took the bait.”

“Looks like that Director Liu from Mengya has already made a move.”

“Hehe, it’s our turn to act now.” Another man’s voice sounded, chuckling softly.

Buzz!

With a slight humming sound, the surrounding shadows rapidly retreated, revealing a giant sea warship that appeared out of thin air on the previously empty water surface!
