Upon hearing this, Hei Long froze for a moment before asking suspiciously, "Alliance? Aren't you afraid that my Black Dragon Mobile City will destroy your Luo Yang Mobile City after we regain our strength? A few hours ago, we were still fighting each other to death. Now, to form an alliance?"
Lying on his chair, Luo En crossed his legs. He sipped his tea and said with a smile, "As the saying goes, 'No discord, no concord'! There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests! It's not so easy to survive in this world where the strong prey upon the weak. What do you think, Hei Long City Lord?"
Before this, Luo En had already wanted to find an ally. After all, he had just transmigrated, and there were many things he did not know. Furthermore, Luo Yang Mobile City of the past was relatively weak and lacking in experience. Even if he were to ask the people in the city, they would not know, so he could only find an ally.
However, allies were not easy to find. The strong ones could not be controlled, and the weak ones would be a burden. It must be someone of comparable strength.
When he saw the Black Dragon Mobile City deploy its energy shield, Luo En already decided to form an alliance with the Black Dragon Mobile City.
The Black Dragon Mobile City was very powerful, and because it had just gone through a battle and yet ran into a recently upgraded mobile city like Luo En's, otherwise, any other small mobile city running into Black Dragon Mobile City would likely have lost.
"Hahahahaha, well said! Indeed, 'there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests'! Just based on these words from you, I'll acknowledge you as my ally!" Hei Long laughed loudly after hearing Luo En's words.
He had made the decision with some careful consideration. After all, Luo En, the city lord of a small mobile city, was actually able to resist their Black Dragon Mobile City's attacks and also counterattacked. Although their mobile city had just experienced a battle, it was undeniable that the Luo Yang Mobile City was powerful.
The most crucial thing was that the Luo Yang Mobile City actually had the design blueprints for small detectors! Furthermore, from the cannons that fired from the Luo Yang Mobile City earlier, it was obvious that the cannons in Luo Yang Mobile City had been upgraded. This meant that Luo En even had the design blueprints for upgrading cannons!
Just imagine, if Luo Yang Mobile City continued to develop like this, it could well become a medium mobile city or even a large mobile city. Forming an alliance with such a powerful mobile city with great development potential would be very worthwhile to Hei Long.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hei Long would, of course, want to pull their relationship even closer.
"Zhang Bo!" Luo En said.
"I am here! What instructions does the City Lord have?" Soon, Zhang Bo came to Luo En's side and said respectfully.
Luo En looked at the basin which had become a mess after the battle and said, "Send someone to clean up this place, and then to continue with mining ores!"
"Yes!" Zhang Bo quickly took his leave, then led twenty or so men to the ground and began to clean up the chaotic basin.
"Brother Hei Long!"
"Brother Luo En!"
Both of them clasped their fists and smiled.
"Brother Hei Long! What are your plans next?" Luo En asked as he looked at Zhang Bo and the men who were cleaning the basin.
Hei Long thought for a while and then replied, "We'll reorganize the mobile city first, then repair the energy shield."
He was feeling very troubled now. The amount of ores needed to repair the energy shield was astronomical! Moreover, ores were also necessary for the development of the mobile city. He did not know where to mine so much ores!
After hearing what Hei Long had said, Luo En thought carefully before saying, "Brother Hei Long, I'll give you half of the ores in this basin!"
He had also thought through this in detail. There were a lot of ores that could be mined in this basin, and half of them was enough. Furthermore, mining ores was also very time-consuming. Just extracting half of the ores would take at least half a month, let alone all of them. Using half of the ores here to strengthen Black Dragon Mobile City was also very worthwhile to Luo Yang Mobile City.
When Hei Long heard this, he was so stunned that he froze in place. It took a while before a some words popped out from his mouth, "What did you say? You… you want to give me half of the ores here?"
When Luo En saw Hei Long's expression, he laughed and said, "Yes! I'll give you half!"
When Hei Long heard Luo En's affirmation, he shouted happily, "That's great! Brother Luo En! Thank you so much! From now on, whoever dares to bully your Luo Yang Mobile City will be going against my Black Dragon Mobile City! Hahahaha!"
He really did not expect that Luo En would let him have half of the ores here. He had also made a rough estimate just now. Although the basin was not too big, the ores were still quite abundant. Half of it would be enough for them to repair the energy shield, and still be left with a lot. They certainly could replenish some of the ammunition they had lost from the battle just now.
When Luo En heard that, he smiled and said, "There's no need to thank me. We are allies, so we should help each other!"
Hei Long burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Alright! Then I won't hold back!"
"Please go ahead, Brother Hei Long!" Luo En stood up from his chair and said.
"Alright!"
Then, Hei Long turned around and went into the Black Dragon Mobile City. Not long after, he brought more than fifty men and two small detectors, which were a bit old, to the ground and began instructing the workers to detect and mine ores.
After speaking, Luo En also returned to the mobile city and walked straight to the command room.
Then, he picked up the walkie-talkie on the platform in the command room and said, "Everyone, listen up! The crisis has been resolved! We're safe now! Everyone holding positions, come to the conference room!"
Then, Luo En stood up and walked towards the conference room.
"That's great! I knew the City Lord would defeat the enemy!"
"The City Lord has created another miracle!"
"Long live the City Lord!"
Everyone in the shelter cheered happily when they heard Luo En's voice.
Of course, those holding positions did not forget what Luo En had said. They all stood up and walked towards the conference room together. However, there were three men who were together, walking separately from the rest. The three men looked anxious and uneasy, but they still braced themselves and walked toward the conference room.
In a short while, everyone arrived at the conference room. Looking at the serious expression on Luo En's face, everyone felt a little puzzled. Shouldn't he be happy that the enemy had been defeated? Why was the City Lord looking so serious? Although they were puzzled, they still sat down reverently.
When the other three men saw the serious-looking Luo En at the main seat, they became even more anxious and uneasy. They were not sure if they had perceived wrongly, but when they walked into the conference room, they felt Luo En's eyes looking at them. When they looked across, they found Luo En resting with his eyes closed. The three men had no choice but to sit down.
Luo En still had his eyes closed, and the people below were very puzzled. However, seeing that Luo En was silent, they did not dare to speak; the atmosphere in the conference room became extremely heavy.
After a long while, Luo En opened his eyes and looked around. When he saw the three men, he paused for a moment before saying solemnly, "Do you know why I called all of you here?"
Everyone present in the room looked at each other, puzzled.
"City Lord! We don't know why you called us here. Do tell us straight!"
"Yes, yes, City Lord! Do tell us straight!"
Everyone started talking. Only the three men became more and more flustered. Now they were completely sure that Luo En was coming at them.
Luo En lay back and said calmly, "We have a traitor in our mobile city, all of you know this, but we also have the traitor's accomplices in our mobile city!"
"City Lord! We know that the traitor you mentioned is that bastard Wang Yun. But what do you mean by his accomplices?" Everyone asked curiously.
When Luo En heard that, he looked at the three men who were sweating profusely. He smiled and said, "You have to ask Chef Wang, Gunner Wang, and Guard Wang. What do all of you think?"
"City Lord! Are you saying that these three men are the accomplices of that bastard Wang Yun?" Everyone asked, puzzled.
At this moment, the three men's limbs were trembling as they frantically said, "City… City Lord! You must be joking. How can we be like that bastard Wang Yun?"
"Is that so… Alright, stop pretending. I already know. Men! Drag these three men out and execute them!" Luo En stood up immediately and said coldly.
"No, City Lord, I was bewitched by Wang Yun. Please spare me! City Lord!"
Immediately, a few men came in and dragged the three wailing men out of the conference room.
