Chapter 278 A Person Must Save Themselves to Be Saved

"Slap!"

As soon as Ye Gou finished speaking, a crisp slapping sound rang out.

"Brother Gun... Brother Gun, you... how could you..."

Ye Gou looked at Brother Gun with a wronged expression, the cheek that was slapped swelling visibly.

"Shush!"

Brother Gun didn't answer, instead making a gesture for silence and glancing at Ye Feng from the corner of his eye with extreme tension.

Seeing that Ye Feng was still fiddling with the lock of the large iron gate, the metallic "clack, clack" sounds still echoing, Brother Gun breathed a sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Ye Gou, you are truly as 'talkative' as your name suggests!"

"You almost got the two of us killed just now, do you know that!"

Brother Gun glared fiercely at Ye Gou, "Brother Snake is someone who injected the five-step viper enhancement serum. It's his molting period these days, his entire facial skin will peel off, making him look disfigured. Don't you see he's wearing a big hat?"

"Whenever this happens, Brother Snake is in a bad mood. I don't even dare to meet Brother Snake's gaze, and you're still staring!"

"Those two people on the ground must have provoked Brother Snake. You're blindly...

Inside the iron cage, the people who were originally quiet saw someone approaching. Some began to beg for mercy, some said they weren't Handlers, and some kept cursing... all sorts of people...

What caught Ye Feng's attention the most was that these people had one common characteristic: their clothes were all the style Ye Feng was familiar with from before.

"So many survivors have been captured!"

Ye Feng was quite surprised.

He and Xiao Xiao had met quite a few people on their journey, but they hadn't encountered any survivors. Now, so many had been captured...

"Clang! Clank!"

"Crack!"

"Behave, get in!"

After a round of scolding, Brother Gun and Ye Gou locked the young Handler into an iron cage.

"Brother Gun, so many Handlers, one is 500 Arcane Yuan coins. If we send them to Brad Base, how much will that be worth!"

Looking at the figures in the surrounding iron cages, Ye Gou couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah, this time is quite special. The Handlers captured by other organizations are also being sent here!"

"I've been in the Skeleton Society for over ten years, and this is the first time I've seen so many Handlers at once!"

Brother Gun nodded, his expression equally surprised.

"Brad Base?"

Hearing this, Ye Feng couldn't help but be surprised.

He remembered that the members of the Blood Hand Futu convoy he encountered in the City of Despair were from there.

After entering the City of Despair, those people had disappeared somewhere!

"What do those guys want survivors for?"

Ye Feng found that things were getting more complicated. There seemed to be a vast network encompassing survivors, or Handlers.

"Brother Snake, according to regulations, we must leave quickly after bringing people here. We can't stay long, you see..."

Suddenly, Brother Gun turned around and spoke to Ye Feng.

"Brother Snake?"

Seeing Ye Feng standing there silently, not answering, Brother Gun frowned.

"You just said that the soundproofing here is very good, and patrols are conducted every 2 hours, right!"

Under the black cloak, Ye Feng's eyes stared directly at Brother Gun, speaking calmly.

"Yes, Brother Snake. This used to be a military prison. Don't worry, no matter how much these people shout, no one will hear..."

"As for the patrol time, you should be more aware of that, Brother Snake..."

As he spoke, Brother Gun's expression suddenly changed, "Brother Snake, why has your voice changed..."

"Ah!"

Before Brother Gun could finish speaking, he let out a scream.

"Ah~ Ah!..."

"Ah ah~! Ah~!..."

.........

After a round of "in-depth and attentive" questioning, Ye Feng obtained a lot of useful information.

"2 hours!"

Ye Feng muttered and began setting up some traps at the scene.

Then, under the surprised, curious, or bewildered gazes of the people in the iron cages, he left.

When he reached the large iron gate, Ye Feng took out his Tang saber and cut open the iron bars, as well as destroying the metal racks that held the women.

However, the women did not escape. Their eyes were vacant, and they continued to stand there, their expressions even more fearful.

"You... you can rest assured, we... we won't run..."

"No... you don't need to test us anymore..."

"Master, tie me up again!"

.........

A group of women, scantily clad and with fearful expressions, spoke to Ye Feng trembling.

"Sigh!"

Seeing this, Ye Feng sighed, "One must save oneself to be saved. Besides yourselves, no one can save you!"

"There's a little over an hour left. The large iron gate will be blown open then. Whether you stay or go is your decision!"

With that said, Ye Feng walked out of the large iron gate, and at the same time, set up a modified C4 bomb at the lock.
