The matters in Luocheng have temporarily come to a close, and there have been no significant disturbances within Wuming City.
The small team assigned to Luocheng for their mission, along with the foreign ability user team, were all gathered.
On one hand, this was to prevent any unseen dangers from occurring, and on the other hand, it was Lin Yu's consideration to suppress the alien matter for a while.
Perhaps in another month, those personnel would downplay the encounter with the aliens.
It would be impossible to make those people forget, but during this time, they could prepare themselves thoroughly.
As Wuming City's reputation grew within the country, the number of people coming and going increased daily.
Especially those who traded in food, gasoline, and other supplies. Some people discovered business opportunities, choosing to buy supplies here and then sell them to more distant regions.
During this period, Wuming City also benefited. They not only acquired more crystals but also obtained a lot of information from various regions.
Gradually, with the increase in the population flowing through Wuming City, and the scarcity of zombies visible near Wuming City, many small bases were expanded around Wuming City.
However, the scale of these small bases was not built too large, with most of them primarily providing temporary accommodation for the transient population.
Of course, the small bases they built were still some distance away from Wuming City. For its own safety, Wuming City had a vast area around it where no construction was allowed.
These people who came and went for material exchange gradually formed a special group in the apocalypse. They often referred to themselves as modern-day peddlers and escorts.
Lin Yu also specifically arranged for personnel to collect information circulating throughout Wuming City. This information was organized regularly, and then they studied the situations in various regions, providing more accurate and useful information for the teams sent to kill zombies.
Of course, the territorial boundaries, the levels of high-level ability users, and their various information were also compiled and handed over to the management of Wuming City.
"Brother Lu, the zombie situation in Luocheng has not improved. When we left, we had cleared out the zombies around Luocheng. I wouldn't say we killed them all, but there shouldn't be many zombies left."
After a pause, Lin Yu relayed the organized information about Luocheng to Lu Heng. "But people who have passed through Luocheng recently say that the area is still swarming with zombies, and ordinary ability user teams hardly dare to go near it."
This also indicated the sheer number of zombies there.
"I'll go take another look. My initial thought is that those aliens are attracting these zombies."
Without addressing the root cause, the zombies there would never be completely eliminated. Luocheng was also strange; some zombies traveled from very distant regions to get there.
A week after leaving Luocheng, Lu Heng once again headed to Luocheng alone.
This time, he directly took the Emu to the barrier created by the aliens.
Through the nourishment of the ancient well water in his space, the Emu that was initially contracted also recovered.
Therefore, Lu Heng still had it carry him to Luocheng.
"Master, where I hit my head last time, there was no wall," the Emu recalled what happened before it passed out.
"There is. You'll see it when you get there. It's an invisible wall, so don't fly too fast when we enter Luocheng."
"Oh." The Emu was also eager to see what kind of wall it was that made it crash headfirst.
Upon entering Luocheng, Lu Heng frowned as he looked at the zombies below. The news from Wuming City was indeed correct; it was once again filled with zombies.
Especially in the areas close to the barrier, the zombies were packed so tightly together that they formed a dense mass, rubbing against each other.
"In that area, see where there are no zombies? There's a layer of invisible wall surrounding it. You can't see it, but you can't run into it headfirst."
"Oh, I saw it last time too. I just thought there was nothing there."
The Emu only then remembered that it had indeed seen this area last time, but it thought it was just an area without zombies below, and it wanted to pass through it.
As if sensing Lu Heng's arrival, the communicator in his space emitted a sound.
With a thought, Lu Heng held the communicator, and an image was immediately projected.
"You've arrived," Bona's voice and image appeared through the communicator.
"Yes, can we fly directly inside?" Lu Heng pressed the communication button.
"Yes, the communicator in your hand is the key to entering here. As long as you hold this, you can enter anytime."
Lu Heng raised an eyebrow at the communicator beneath the image. "Let's go, fly in."
"But Master, isn't that a wall?"
"Yes, but not for now."
The Emu could not hear the conversation between him and the aliens. It could only communicate with Lu Heng through telepathy, so it could not hear Lu Heng's conversation with the aliens just now.
However, since Lu Heng said it was possible, the Emu did not hesitate. It adjusted its direction and flew towards the wall that had knocked it unconscious last time.
However, this time it did not make it dizzy. It carried Lu Heng into the aliens' space.
However, due to the air inside, both Lu Heng and the Emu experienced brief discomfort. The Emu's flight faltered for a few breaths, and it quickly descended towards the ground with Lu Heng.
Fortunately, Lu Heng reacted quickly and mentally called out to the Emu. As it was about to approach the ground, the Emu flapped its wings vigorously, instantly ascending and adjusting its flight speed and altitude before landing on the ground under Lu Heng's command.
"I forgot, the air here causes discomfort to humans and can slow down the movements of creatures from Blue Star," Bona said apologetically as he approached Lu Heng.
"Yes, I forgot."
"You know?"
When Lu Heng came last time, he wore a spacesuit until he left, so Bona assumed Lu Heng was unaware of these things.
He did not yet know that Lu Heng had a space in his possession that was connected to their planet.
Therefore, he was also unaware of Lu Heng's research on their planet.
As for the robots and alien objects that Lu Heng had brought out last time, Bona had merely assumed that Lu Heng had found them somewhere on Blue Star.
"Yes, I was fortunate enough to obtain some of your gases and conducted some research. It does have some effect on Blue Star's creatures, but it doesn't seem to pose any threat to our lives."
The members of the team that had returned previously were all alive and well in Wuming City. Their bodies had undergone comprehensive examinations, and there was no difference compared to before.
"City Lord Lu, what brings you here this time?" Bona asked directly.
"I want to talk with you. Have you conducted any research on the zombies outside?"
"Not yet. Although you mentioned last time that the zombies were acting strangely, they do not pose any threat to us for now, so we do not wish to harm them. After all, they are also life forms from Blue Star."
