The Two-Horned Lizard pondered.
Suddenly, as if it remembered something, it looked at the human.
"You just said 'you'?"
"Hmm." Shen Heng nodded calmly.
"If it's you, why don't you do it yourselves instead of coming to us?" the Two-Horned Lizard frowned.
"When I said 'we,' I just meant more than just me. Don't you know the exact number? It's those who came in with you back then," Shen Heng said, feigning a slight headache.
"That human woman, and that bastard?!" The Two-Horned Lizard raised an eyebrow.
"If by 'bastard' you mean Stone, then that's it!" Shen Heng nodded.
Seemingly recalling his previous exposure, the Two-Horned Lizard snorted coldly and turned his gaze to the side.
Shen Heng looked at it and continued:
"If possible, I'd like to do it ourselves, but firstly, it would be hard to hide it from you, and secondly, we don't have enough manpower. Including Stone, there are only three of us in total."
"There are already five mines here, not to mention the other encirclement area. We can't manage them all!"
The Two-Horned Lizard slowly nodded.
From this perspective, it is indeed very necessary for the other party to cooperate with them.
but...
Thinking of what the other party had just said—five mines and one enclosure, and then being unable to manage them all... the Two-Horned Lizard raised its eyes.
"You have a concrete plan."
"I have a general idea, but I need to think about the specifics more carefully," Shen Heng replied.
"Then tell me your general plan first, and I'll take a look and then consider whether or not to cooperate with you," said the Two-Horned Lizard.
Without any hesitation, Shen Heng nodded and said:
"Actually, there's nothing particularly special about it. It's simply a matter of first connecting the Calamity Beast in the various mines, then staggering their riots at different times and locations, leading the Black Rat from one place to another. We then look for opportunities to escape during this process!"
"During this process, we will provide specific plans: when and what to do on each side, what to do on the other side after a certain time, what the teams that haven't started yet need to do during this period, and so on; and you, are responsible for motivating the Calamity Beast below and making them do as required when the time comes!"
The Two-Horned Lizard nodded silently as it pondered the situation.
After confirming that the plan to lure the Black Rat away through a riot and then escape had a chance of success, the next step was to develop a concrete plan and put it into practice.
Based on its experience of confronting these humans over the past two years, although it had mainly learned about them through hearsay, it had enough to understand them.
Teaching these humans the specific tactics shouldn't be a problem!
The only thing to worry about is preventing the other side from setting traps in their plans and getting them caught in them!
Thinking of this, the Two-Horned Lizard frowned slightly.
It pondered for a moment and said:
"You need to submit your detailed plan to us at least one day in advance. Only after I review it and approve it can we proceed!"
"Of course, if you don't agree, I can't force you to do it." Shen Heng nodded indifferently.
The Two-Horned Lizard nodded in satisfaction and asked:
"So when does it start, tomorrow?"
"Yes, you've convinced them it will take time. That should be enough time for me to complete my plan and make preparations." Shen Heng nodded.
After speaking, it paused, its gaze fixed on the Two-Horned Lizard.
"You should be fine, right?"
"If you had asked me to do this before, it probably wouldn't have worked. After all, for these Calamity Beast, they can live without causing trouble, it's just a bit tough. But if they cause trouble, the chances of dying are too high. But it's different now. Based on what we've been through recently, persuading them to cause trouble shouldn't be a problem," the Two-Horned Lizard said, raising its head.
There was no immediate response; Shen Heng looked at the Two-Horned Lizard.
He thought for a moment and asked:
Are you sure that with your current Tier 2, you can convince those at Tier 3?
There was no response; the Two-Horned Lizard's body stiffened slightly.
I almost forgot about that...
It paused, its gaze shifting to the Steel-Mane Bear and the Black Jade Lion not far away. "A bit troublesome, but it shouldn't be a big problem... right?"
Shen Heng looked at the Two-Horned Lizard speechlessly.
He paused for a moment, then said:
"That way, when you go and persuade them, you can take the blame for the fact that the captured Calamity Beast didn't confess about them, and also mention the thing from a few days ago about not mining enough ore."
Upon hearing this, the Two-Horned Lizard paused, its gaze turning to Shen Heng.
"Those two, did you make them?"
There was no response; the other party simply stared at it calmly.
Damn it, I knew it! Judging from those two guys' behavior lately, how could they have killed those symbiotic Calamity Beast they were supposed to contact beforehand?!
The Two-Horned Lizard looked at the Steel-Mane Bear and the Black Jade Lion with some anger.
But this is for the best. This way, even if they haven't heard of me, it will be much easier to persuade them by revealing my identity and mentioning these two things...
Shen Heng also gazed at them.
Steel-Mane Bear wasn't sure, but Black Jade Lion recognized the Two-Horned Lizard, and considering the two points from their previous actions in helping them, that should be enough.
Now, all we have to do is wait...
"By the way, have you thought about how you're going to run the race?"
A voice asking for directions came from over the phone.
Shen Heng turned his gaze over. "What? Are you going to run away with us?"
"Well..."
The Two-Horned Lizard hesitated for a moment, then did not respond.
Reason tells it that, given the other party's capabilities, they will definitely find what they perceive as the best opportunity to leave.
In this case, if it follows the other party, the chance of it leaving will increase significantly.
but...
If I leave this world and immediately reappear next to the other person, wouldn't that be the end of me? Wouldn't I be back to the situation I was in before I entered?
Although it may not die in the short term, there is no doubt that if such an accident does not occur again, it will be impossible for it to escape from the other party's grasp!
And are we hoping for another accident like this?
The Two-Horned Lizard remained silent for a while, then twitched its lips, somewhat unwilling to give up, and said:
"I was just asking, huh? How are you going to get out then?"
Shen Heng chuckled lightly, "Since you don't plan to go out with us, then don't ask. You can decide how you want to go based on your own plans!"
There was no response, Two-Horned Lizard turned its gaze to the side with a slight twitch at the corner of its mouth.
If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. When a riot breaks out, who knows, the path you find might actually be the better one!
When that time comes, this human will come begging for help...
"But..."
The sound came from the side.
"I can give you two options for consideration; you can decide for yourself whether to take them and which one to choose."
The Two-Horned Lizard suddenly turned its gaze in that direction.
What road?
