At this moment, a mechanical voice suddenly appeared in Luo En’s mind.

As Luo En listened to the voice in his mind, a burst of intense light suddenly shot from his originally dull eyes. The system… It’s exactly the same as the transmigration novels I read in my previous life! Looks like there’s a way to resolve this crisis!

Then, Luo En promptly picked up the walkie-talkie beside him and said in a serious tone, “Everyone, listen up! I am City Lord Luo En! I will resolve the current crisis! However, everyone, don’t move around, hold your positions. Otherwise, I will regard you as a spy and kill you on the spot!”

Luo En could only tell them that. Whether the people in the city would heed or not, he would not know. It was impossible for him to actually go and keep an eye on the villagers in the city now. He had said that in order to just stabilize the situation first. Otherwise, if this carried on, the city would probably collapse before the crisis could be resolved.

At this moment, some of the panicking crowd in the city outside fell silent for a while upon hearing Luo En’s words. Soon after, they erupted into even greater panic!

“What can he possibly do? Yet he wants to kill us?”

“Let’s hurry up and run! Or shall we wait for White Tremor Mobile City to arrive before surrendering!”

“Who would believe that a person like him could solve a crisis? Not even a dog! Ridiculous!”

“It’s a pity that the old City Lord was so awe-inspiring and was a person with great achievements. How could he have such a useless son!”



Of course, Luo En could not hear those words. He held his forehead and thought for a while. Where can I get ores… Oh right! The Resource Room in the mobile city! I’m now the City Lord, so I’m fully authorized to go into the Resource Room! Yes! The Resource Room has all the ores in the mobile city!

Hence, Luo En recalled the location of the Resource Room from memory and walked toward it.

Just as Luo En was walking out of the command room, a man came running toward him. When the man saw Luo En walking out, he asked hurriedly, “City Lord! Where are you going? The city is in chaos now! The enemy city is closing in on us. Soon, we will come within their attack range. What should we do?”

Of course, Luo En could not reveal his motive directly. He said unhurriedly, “Don’t worry! I’m going to resolve this matter!”

On hearing this, the man’s face was filled with bewilderment. He had asked this only because of the rules. He did not think that Luo En could resolve the present crisis as he was of the impression that the City Lord was a lazy, idle, and cowardly person. If not for the fact that his father was the old City Lord, not many people would probably treat him nicely! Would he take the initiative to shoulder such a huge responsibility?

Of course, the man did not give away his sentiments outwardly. He quickly asked, “How does the City Lord plan to resolve this?”

Luo En was also annoyed by the man’s questioning. He was in a hurry to go to the Resource Room now. The danger outside was drawing near; how could he have the luxury of time to answer the man?

Immediately, he responded coldly, “Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask! Just do your own work well!”

The man was startled by Luo En’s sudden iciness. He quickly bent forward, bowed his head and replied hurriedly, “Yes, I will obey!”

Only then did Luo En brush past him and hurry toward the Resource Room.

The man looked at Luo En’s departing figure; his expression kept changing. He could not help but feel surprised. The City Lord seemed to have changed into a different person… I actually feel that the City Lord can resolve this crisis?!

Then, he shook his head and turned around to head back to his post.

As Luo En walked on the road, he saw all kinds of things that he had never seen in his previous life. He could not help but sigh, “This world is really novel and advanced! The original owner of this body only knew how to idle around all day. His understanding of these things was very limited… Looks like I have to understand this world properly when I have the time!”

Soon, Luo En arrived outside a large metal door with the words “Resource Room” engraved on it.

Just as Luo En was about to enter, an icy voice sounded from the side. “No unauthorized personnel is allowed to enter the Resource Room!”

Luo En looked toward the direction of the voice and found that it came from an old man with a grizzled beard and dressed in a uniform.

Luo En recalled from memory and knew immediately that the old man before him had been assigned here personally by his father, Luo Yang. He was in charge of guarding the Resource Room.

The old man’s surname was Chen, and everyone in the city called him Old Chen. This mobile city was jointly built by Luo En’s father, Luo Yang, and Old Chen. He could be regarded as a pioneer figure of this city.

However, as Old Chen had an easy going personality and kept a low profile, ever since he was assigned here by Luo Yang, not many people had seen him.

Luo En watched the old man walk over and said calmly, “Old Chen! I want to enter the Resource Room!”

Old Chen came to Luo En’s side, and expeditiously stopped him. Using his body, he blocked the entrance to the Resource Room and promptly said to Luo En, “Rascal! You came here only a few months ago and even took away 50 catties of iron ore and 20 catties of dried meat from the Resource Room when I wasn’t around, causing me to be badly scolded by the old City Lord. Now you are coming to the Resource Room again to sabotage the resources? Let me tell you! No way!

“You used to squander the city’s resources frequently in the past and had caused a severe shortage of resources in our city. At this critical moment, these resources are our last hope! I cannot let you squander them again!

“Moreover, the old City Lord had given the order that you should not be allowed to enter the Resource Room again! Even if you’re the City Lord now, you can’t! Quickly go back to where you came from!”

When Luo En heard this, he could not help but feel that the Luo En of the past was really terrible beyond words, an utter wastrel. Luo En of the past would always back away after Old Chen’s scolding.

However, now it was not possible for Luo En to just back away after the berating. White Tremor Mobile City was getting closer and closer to the mobile city he was in. The only thing that could resolve the current crisis was the System! Luo En had to race against time!

“Move aside!” Luo En looked at Old Chen and said coldly.

Old Chen insisted, “No! I can’t let you in!”

“I’ll say it one last time! Get out of my way! Otherwise, as the City Lord, I’ll dismiss you and chase you out of the city!” Luo En stared at Old Chen with his sharp eyes and continued to press him.

“You… Sigh! Alright, go in!” Old Chen who was so angry that his beard was trembling; he sighed and moved aside as he said this.

Old Chen had no other choice. Although he was in charge of guarding the Resource Room, he had no authority to resist the City Lord’s orders. The City Lord had the authority to dismiss others in this city!

“Don’t worry! I will resolve the crisis in front of me!” Luo En said calmly before walking into the Resource Room!
