The local Spokesperson present looked at each other in bewilderment.

One of the unshaven Spokesperson, perhaps worried that remaining silent for too long would displease Lu Bai, nervously raised his hand.

Only after receiving permission from Lu Bai did he speak, "Big brother, those aliens definitely won't tell us about this..."

Although Lu Bai maintained a smiling demeanor, the unshaven local Spokesperson couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and hurriedly added, "However, I do know how many of those so-called Mona Warrior there are."

In the beginning, the existence of the Mona Warrior seemed more like a facade erected by the Mona people to prove to humanity that following them would bring good fortune.

Of course, as things developed, the Mona people also discovered that these Mona Warriors were actually quite useful.

After all, the recruitment threshold is high enough; even among deathmatch fighters, they are the elite of the elite.

In a sense, taking away a group of humanity's top elites can also suppress human development.

Therefore, the Mona Warrior system has been preserved. Whenever a new Mona Warrior is born, the news is announced to all settlements, which is basically equivalent to "announcing to the entire server".

It can satisfy the Mona Warrior's need for honor, and also inspire the people in the settlement to want to become Mona Warrior.

It's worth mentioning that no matter how fanatical the converts of the Mona Warrior may be, the Mona people themselves still maintain a degree of wariness towards humans.

Therefore, the number of Mona Warrior never exceeds three digits.

Once the number of Mona Warrior increases, some will be withdrawn and used as Replicant, thus being used in a reasonable manner.

Of course, in order not to damage the magnificent image of the Mona civilization in the minds of these Mona Warriors, they certainly wouldn't say it outright.

"Excluding the three Mona Warrior I killed earlier, are there still seventy-eight Mona Warrior left?"

Lu Bai nodded thoughtfully.

According to the Spokesperson of these settlements, the Mona Warrior are mostly fanatics who despise their human identity, making them more troublesome to approach than to encounter real Mona people.

If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Bai will definitely have to face these Mona people fodder.

However, unless they gather together on their own initiative, Lu Bai really has no interest in finding each of these so-called Mona Warrior one by one.

After all, given the size of the Earth, these Mona Warriors are stationed all over the world, and you might travel thousands of kilometers without ever seeing a single Mona Warrior.

Lu Bai waited for a little over an hour, but to his surprise, nothing happened during that time.

It seems that the loss of a starship has dealt a heavy blow to the Mona people, as they have not made any further moves.

Unable to wait for the Mona people, Lu Bai simply packed up everyone present and took them away.

They returned to the settlement where Brother Biao originally lived, riding in several still-usable flying cars.

During this time, Lu Bai remained wary of potential attacks from the Mona people.

However, nothing happened. Not only did no Mona people appear, but even the Mona Warrior, whom the Mona people considered worthless, did not appear.

Under these circumstances, even if Lu Bai wanted to find out something from the Mona people, he wouldn't have the chance.

Using [Wind Riding], I arrived at the top of the stadium and sat down; it was already sunset.

Lu Bai was starting to realize what was going on.

Given how much the Mona people value the Deathmatch System, they certainly wouldn't tolerate an unexpected existence like Lu Bai.

But now he has managed to spend almost half a day peacefully, and it seems this tranquility will continue.

That's very strange.

The strength he displayed was indeed considerable, but it was far from enough to deter the Mona people from taking action.

Given the importance attached to this matter, the fact that no action has been taken seems to suggest only one explanation.

"Okay, it looks like..."

Lu Bai casually gazed up at the starry sky, as if he could see the rapidly approaching Mona people interstellar fleet through an immeasurably vast distance. "... The Mona people's forces deployed on Earth aren't that many."

"Boss."

Brother Biao carried a wooden ladder, climbed up to where Lu Bai was, and cautiously asked, "Boss, we're running low on food."

The white-robed Mona people govern nine settlements.

Now, the Spokesperson of these nine settlements all follow Lu Bai, so naturally, they can only turn to Lu Bai for any problems.

In the eyes of these Spokesperson, the Mona people's retaliation and judgment should be postponed.

The most urgent matter is to figure out what to eat.

There are nine settlements, each with a different population size.

Even the smallest settlement had over a thousand people, and the total population of the nine settlements was over twenty thousand, approaching thirty thousand.

With so many mouths to feed, even if you eat sparingly, the amount of food consumed in a single meal is still quite staggering.

Most importantly, because the Mona people in white robes always provided food on time and did not allow them to collect or grow their own food, the people in these settlements had no habit of storing food at all.

Even if each of them could immediately become a highly skilled farmer, and they had enough seeds, the existing food would not be enough to sustain them until the crops were ripe and ready for harvest.

Hearing this, Lu Bai nodded.

He certainly couldn't conjure up so much food on the spot, but he knew where to get it.

He said to Brother Biao, "Go and gather all those Spokesperson; I need to talk to them about something."

"Boss, did I hear that right? You mean you want us to relocate all the people from our settlements together?"

The unshaven, Spokesperson troubled.

After half a day of interaction, Lu Bai also learned the guy's name. Everyone usually called him Lao Huang. The settlement he controlled was the largest of the nine settlements, with a population of nearly 10,000.

That being said, the Spokesperson in charge present were not surprised by Lu Bai's order. In fact, if they were in Lu Bai's position, their first reaction would also be to gather the power under their control together.

However, this still involves the migration of more than 10,000 people, which is undoubtedly a huge project for them, especially when such a large project is being carried out during a time of food shortage.

Lu Bai smiled and said, "I'm just asking you to pass on this information. I have other plans for you."

His gaze was gentle, yet when it swept over these Spokesperson in charge, they were so frightened that they all lowered their heads and avoided his gaze.

"May I ask, sir, what are you taking us to do?" In the end, it was Brother Biao who stepped forward to play the straight man.

"Didn't you say you were short of food? I'm planning to take you to get some."

"Where can we find so much food?"

Lu Bai looked down at the ground, as if he were reciting some kind of nonsensical literature.

"We'll get it from wherever we can find it."
