The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

Su Mu leaned against the wall, staring at the countdown, feeling a sense of anticipation.

Ten minutes is neither a long nor a short time.

He opened the chat channel and scrolled through it casually... It was still the same old messages: people wanting to buy, selling, complaining, and pleading for help. The Talented Ones Guild was recruiting, but there was no activity from Zhou Zhenguo's side, and the threats from the foreigners continued.

He glanced out the window again.

It was completely dark. Thick fog billowed, obscuring everything. But the lights on that parallel cable in the distance seemed closer than they had been the night before.

Su Mu frowned.

He remembered that when he looked in the morning, the distance between the two cables was about one kilometer. Now, he estimated it to be only five or six hundred meters.

Approaching.

This thing isn't fixed. The distance between the two cables is decreasing, not quickly, but they are definitely getting closer.

If this continues, sooner or later the two cables will merge. At that time...

Su Mu did not continue thinking about it.

When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it. Thinking about it now is pointless.

He glanced out the window again, his gaze passing through the thick fog and landing below the cable car.

The cable car's altitude is also changing. During the day, the cable car is at least two or three hundred meters above the ground, but now it looks like it's only a little over one hundred meters.

Looking down from above, the outline of the ground became much clearer... You could see the shape of the tree canopy, the roof of the house, and even vaguely see something moving on the ground.

About five or six hundred meters ahead, there was a huge outline.

Su Mu squinted, trying to make out the outline through the thick fog.

It was a complex of buildings. Not ordinary houses, but something with a neat layout, high walls, and resembling some kind of base.

He saw the wall... a gray cement wall, at least two people high, topped with barbed wire. Inside the wall were several low, square buildings, like barracks or warehouses.

The most eye-catching thing is a square tower in the corner, with a platform on top, like a watchtower.

Military base.

Su Mu's pupils contracted slightly.

He recalled the intelligence Lin Yuwei had given him earlier... "It's an armory." He had thought it was in a corner of some town, but it turned out to be right in front of him, right under his nose.

Moreover, given the cable car's current speed and altitude, it will soon be passing directly above this base.

Su Mu subconsciously glanced at his landing attempts... He'd already used up today's. Even if he wanted to go down, he couldn't.

But just letting it pass by without doing anything feels like a waste.

Su Mu's gaze fell on the liquefied gas canister bomb in the corner of the cable car.

It was traded from Zhou Zhenguo and had been gathering dust in a corner ever since.

Weighing twenty kilograms, it possessed immense power, but the detonation time was uncertain, making its use quite risky. He had originally planned to dispose of it at some opportunity, but hadn't found a suitable place yet.

Now......

Su Mu glanced at the military base outside the window, then at the liquefied gas tank in the corner, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Not going down doesn't mean we can't do something.

However, we need to find out first whether it is the military base that Lin Yuwei mentioned.

Thinking about this, he realized that he had forgotten to ask the other party for the planting platform.

I opened the chat window with Lin Yuwei and typed a few words:

"By the way, how's your Blue Silver Grass cultivation going?"

After posting it, he felt a little embarrassed. He clearly wanted a planting platform, but instead asked about Blue Silver Grass in a roundabout way. Wasn't that a bit too unseemly?

Forget it, that woman isn't exactly a saint either.

The reply came quickly: "It's alright, growing well. What's up?"

Su Mu considered his words carefully: "I was thinking... since you've been cultivating your Blue Silver Grass for a while now, why don't you let me grow it here? Anyway, you don't have much space over there, and I happen to have some space here..."

"You want a planting platform, right?"

Su Mu: "..."

Can this woman please not be so direct?

"I knew you weren't that kind." Lin Yuwei's message came again, followed by an eye-rolling emoji. "I've already used the blueprints for the planting platform, so I can't give them to you. But I can make one for you for free."

Su Mu was taken aback.

free?

"What are the conditions?" he asked.

"No conditions."

Su Mu stared at the line of text for several seconds, feeling that something was amiss.

When did this unscrupulous merchant become so generous?

Last time, he traded two barrels of fuel for three blueprints, only to have them turned around and make oil lamps that sold for seven or eight hundred servings of food. He still feels the pinch. Now, the other party is suddenly offering him a planting platform for free... Has the sun risen in the west?

"Really no conditions?" he asked again.

"Aren't you annoying? If you don't want it, then forget it."

"want."

Su Mu didn't hesitate. Whatever her motives, he'd get her first. He wasn't stupid; if she made any unreasonable demands, he'd just refuse.

He thought for a moment, then asked, "By the way, the military base you mentioned... is it just ahead? I saw a large complex of buildings from the cable car, with walls and towers, it looked like a military camp."

The other side remained silent for a few seconds.

"Yes. That's the place I was talking about."

Su Mu glanced at the approaching cluster of buildings outside the window and asked, "Are there... level five monsters in there?"

"Yes. The intelligence I received said 'Unknown level, suspected to be level five or higher.' And that thing..." Lin Yuwei paused, "...is not an ordinary monster."

"What do you mean?"

"Literal meaning. I advise you not to go there."

Su Mu frowned.

"Understood," Su Mu replied. "I've used up all my landing attempts, so I can't land even if I wanted to."

"That's good," Lin Yuwei said. "Don't die."

Su Mu did not return.

He closed the chat window and his gaze fell on the liquefied gas canister bomb in the corner.

There are level 5 monsters in there. If it's a level 5 monster area, the other monsters shouldn't be too low-level either... level 3, level 4, and maybe even other level 5 monsters. Throw a bomb down, kill as many as you can, and gain some experience shouldn't be a problem, right?

Consider it clearing out inventory.

Su Mu walked to the control panel and opened the external weapon interface. There were two weapon slots on the roof, one with a small quiver, and the other empty.

[Was an "improvised gas canister explosive device" placed?]

confirm.

The liquefied gas cylinder disappeared from the corner of the cable car and appeared in the weapon compartment on the roof. Su Mu glanced at it through the control panel... The cylinder was firmly fixed in the slot, with a thin wire attached to the fuse, extending all the way to the control panel.

[Deployment method: Manual detonation. After igniting the fuse, you can choose to deploy immediately or delay deployment.]

Su Mu didn't rush to act. He stared at the approaching cluster of buildings outside the window, mentally estimating the distance. At the cable car's current speed, it would probably take a few more minutes to reach the top of the base.

Wait until it reaches the center before throwing it.
