Tao Yu slowly emerged from the gloomy stairwell and appeared in front of the three men.
"Pioneer?"
Looking at Tao Yu''s tatteredbat suit, the three men seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Have Lin Chao and the others gone back?"
Tao Yu asked. Given that they had chosen this time toe, they must have received some news, and it was highly likely that Lin Chao and his group had decided to return.
"You know Brother Chao?"
Hearing this, the three men rxed a bit further.
Besides recognizing a mutual acquaintance, the key point was that this information confirmed that this person was indeed an outsider Pioneer.
Then, among the three, a man who looked quite experienced, clearly only about eighteen, but appeared to be in his thirties, spoke earnestly
"Little bro, since you know Brother Chao, let me give you a friendly warning. Don''t make careless noises in the wilderness to scare people. It can get you killed."
Almost immediately, another member of the team, a tall and thin man, also spoke up
"Exactly. You suddenly coughed, and I almost swept this way. If you died, it would have been for nothing."
Thest one, short and skinny, not even reaching one and a half meters, also pulled at his cor, showing part of a tattoo, and spoke
"We''re the West City Trio. We should have a bit of a reputation in the Development Zone. Not sure if you''ve heard of us."
However, no sooner had he finished than the experienced-looking guy hit him on the head
"Idiot, the third brother is already dead."
"Oh, right, right, we''re the West City Trio."
Tao Yu had originallye to check out the situation and then send these people on their way, but the scene in front of him made the corner of his mouth twitch.
Where did these three clownse from?
Perhaps their somewhat arrogant words had caused Little ck to feel that his master was being offended, as he too emerged from the dark stairwell behind Tao Yu.
The Alien, being primarily ck in color, presented a rather unsettling image as it came out against the backdrop of the pitch-ck stairwell.
The sharp teeth in its mouth, the viscous saliva, and the low growling with twitching lips genuinely made the West City Trio instantly lose their bravado, unconsciously wanting to raise their guns.
"Don''t worry, it doesn''t bite."
Tao Yu reached out and patted Little ck''s head, and just like a dog, the creature rubbed against him and then paused by Tao Yu''s side.
This left the West City Trio gaping in disbelief.
Why can he have such a cool skill when we''re all just country bumpkins from the Development Zone? Aren''t outsiders supposed to show off just with Basic Breathing Technique?
"Sorry, we were a bit loud just now."
The eldest among them, already looking prematurely aged, immediately adopted a humble and submissive demeanor, suddenly transforming into the image of an honest old farmer.
The other two also assumed a meek and subservient appearance.
"West City Trio?"
Tao Yu raised an eyebrow.
"You''ve misunderstood. We just gave ourselves that title, fearing that others would look down on us. After all, there is a three-quarters chance that the people are from other districts."
The eldest''s expression was somewhat embarrassed, and both the second and the youngest were also smiling apologetically.
However, Tao Yu found their words to be probably true as his Spirit Perception had not detected any unusual emotions. They likely weren''t lying; these three couldn''t possibly have deceived him, could they…
"Okay, since you''ve returned safely, hurry on your way, and don''t make a noise when you leave to avoid trouble."
Tao Yu couldn''t be bothered to interact much with the three, casually waving his hand.
"Yes, we''ll follow your instructions."
The eldest agreed quickly, but then asked urgently,
"But may we inquire, sir, have any Aliense after you?"
While speaking, he also kept ncing at the Alien by Tao Yu''s feet.
They had not yet encountered an Alien face to face, but they were well aware of what Aliens generally looked like and it seemed to match up.
```
In their eyes, Tao Yu must have taken on the task of breeding Aliens and learning their habits, which meant they themselves should hurry up and leave, not to disturb him. That was the most normal course of action.
"Not many for now, but who knows if you drag on."
"Thank you."
The three didn''t dally, thanked him with a bow, and then directly entered the stairwell to climb towards the rooftop.
As they passed by Little ck, all three seemed a bit nervous, but still managed to get past one after another.
Tao Yu watched the three leave, not wanting anyplications on thest day before the bodies rise.
However, just as he saw the three ascending the dark staircase to the rooftop and heard the creaking sound of the iron door opening, and was about to go down.
Suddenly, he heard exmations from above.
"Oh my god."
"What is that..."
"Someone ising."
Tao Yu frowned upon hearing this, wondering what was going on.
Then he gave Little ck a look, and Little ck immediately started climbing towards the rooftop.
After Little ck scouted ahead, Tao Yu followed and went up to the rooftop as well.
Although he didn''t think these three guys could do anything to him, it was always good to be cautious.
When Tao Yu got to the rooftop and followed the astonished gazes of the three men, his pupils constricted slightly, realizing why they were so startled!
At the end of his sightline, on the horizon, two figures resembling motorcycles flew rapidly toward the city.
They were truly flying!
They must have been about a hundred meters off the ground, the ck shapes of the motorcycles exuding a streamlining effect, appearing somewhat simr to jet skis, but capable of hovering and moving at high speed.
Tao Yu''s exceptional vision allowed him to see that atop each hoverbike was a striking figure.
Familiar ck-tightbat suits, handsome and delicate features with a cool detachment.
It was the two notable young masters and miss from the Floating City!
Tao Yu had not anticipated that after they had investigated the world fragment of Pandora to the south, they would turn around and head this way!
Although Tao Yu could municate'' with Little ck, Little ck couldn''t understand human speech, so he wasn''t aware that one of the three from the nest had gone back for reinforcements.
Now, suddenly seeing these two individuals with the most prominent identities and strengths in the current Development Zone, Tao Yu felt some pressure in his heart.
As soon as Tao Yu recognized their faces, the two nced over almost simultaneously and, after a slight adjustment of their trajectory, elerated directly towards him.
"They''reing, they''reing."
"What is it?"
"Big brother, do you know what''s going on?"
The West City Trio was also very tense.
"The two from the Floating City."
As the figures approached, Tao Yu casually informed them, shocking the trio to the point they started trembling uncontrobly.
As the two got closer, and they could see more clearly, they held their breath and stood to the side with heads bowed in a submissive manner, appearing very humble.
Whoosh whoosh~
Apanied by the sound of tearing through the air and a burst of violent airflow, the two hoverbikes had already reached above the rooftop, reducing their speed in a graceful manner to stop above the group.
Then the curvaceous miss, with a swift somersault,nded on the rooftop.
What caused Tao Yu''s pupils to constrict was that, aside from the waves of vibrations from hernding, seven strangely shaped and unique weapons also followed behind her!
Once she stood firmly on the ground, those seven unique weapons spread out like a fan, hovering behind her, leaving Tao Yu utterly baffled.
He had thought that the gear of these siblings would be like thosebat suits from the murder cities, but you''re telling me it''s Ionia?
Looking at the figure delineated by the tightbat suit, which seemed somewhat sensual, and seeing that top-level beauty, Tao Yu eyed the ruby-like eyes of the other party and defined her preliminarily in his mind.
Rich, beautiful, young, powerful...
