The apocalypse begins with a dungeon game.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Can suddenly chuckled, stepped into the crowd, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Fellow tribesmen, come on, let's all leave the city together!"

Amidst the envious and resentful gazes of the other indigenous people, these newly added members of the family tree followed Li Can with slightly guilty expressions on their faces.

Of course, Wang Defa, Li Can, Zhou Ye, Shen Yuan, Xing Dong, and others were also involved in this mess.

The strange guard who had previously dealt with Li Can turned pale the moment he saw such a large, dark mass of people in the upper city.

This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for the people of the lower city, and he had gone to great lengths to secure it for them. But what does it mean that he has brought so many of his people with him now?

He doesn't have that much authority to let hundreds of people pass at once.

【You have so many family members…】 He sent these words through gritted teeth in the live chat.

The strange creature stared at Li Can, while Li Can looked back at it with clear, innocent eyes.

One person, one cunning individual; staring wide-eyed at each other.

"Sir, you know our place is small, and we have neighbors on both sides, so intermarriage is very normal. Hundreds of years have passed in a flash, how could the population not grow so large?"

In fact, what Li Can said was true; that was indeed the situation.

If you really want to be serious, do some blood tests to see if people in this eerie, labyrinthine city are all related.

It was simply unavoidable.

Therefore, the genealogy that Li Can took out was very reasonable, even a bit too meticulous, and very carefully made.

[Xing Dazhuang, are you really stupid or just pretending? Can't you understand what I'm saying?]

Li Can chuckled, revealing his honest and simple side, "I see now, we've brought our whole family to seek refuge with you."

Weird rolled his eyes so hard they almost reached the sky. He had previously admired this guy, but now he seemed like a hopeless piece of trash.

Talking to him for even a few words can make me so angry I have a stroke.

Given your family's situation, your travel permit to leave the city will either be cancelled, or you can choose one or two people to travel with you.

"Oh? Sir, that's not right. I can't abandon any of my family members."

Huang Xiaoqi stayed by Li Can's side the whole time without saying a word.

He held Xing Tiantian's hand tighter and tighter.

The little monster patted her with its other tentacle, seemingly trying to soothe her.

Since Li Can arrived in the instance world, there has been no peace here. Huang Xiaoqi, the wife of the original "Xing Dazhuang", has been affected by mental pollution, but she can still find differences in the people she spends every day with.

She always felt that Xing Dazhuang in front of her had become a different person, and he looked strange. The Xing Dazhuang of the past was honest, down-to-earth, hardworking, and had no ulterior motives. He was much more single-minded now.

Unlike Xing Dazhuang beside her now, although his face is still the same and she can't find any flaws in it, he has changed.

His tone of voice, his expression, his body language... all told her at every moment that this was no longer the same person he used to be.

But how can a perfectly normal person change so much?

She was completely baffled.

Mingming's family's ultimate wish to leave the city was within reach, and could be realized at any moment.

At this point, Xing Dazhuang began to openly try to mess things up, while Huang Xiaoqi also started to back down.

She couldn't see clearly.

Only Xing Tiantian's presence could give her a sliver of comfort and peace of mind.

"Dazhuang, don't be stubborn now. Just take Xiaoqi and me out of the city. Forget about those people, and those nephews who claim to be related to us. I think they all have bad intentions. We're the only family that can live a peaceful and happy life." Qian Shi stepped forward and said what he thought was a fair statement.

However, Li Can did not respond.

He winked at the fellow dungeon players behind him.

Immediately, everyone swarmed forward.

"Uncle, you can't abandon us! You know we can't survive without you..."

"We agreed to be family, we're all on the same family tree, how can you be so selfish, only thinking of yourself and not caring about our lives at all?"

"Sigh, Dazhuang, the tribespeople are truly heartbroken. If you do that, we have nothing to say..."

Among them, there were all sorts of characters playing the good cop/bad cop and pretending to be pitiful.

Li Can was immediately trapped on the spot, unable to get down.

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. I, Xing Dazhuang, am not an ungrateful person. Since that's the case, then let's all stay in the city! The whole family can stay together."

Li Can waved his hand and finally said what he had wanted to say for a long time.

Qian Shi's hand, which was holding his clothes, suddenly went limp, and he almost fell headfirst to the ground, fainting.

"Dazhuang, have you been tainted by something unclean? Are you talking in your sleep?"

Huang Xiaoqi looked at him with the same gentle expression, seemingly no different, but only she could feel the coldness in her eyes.

"Okay, sir, I'll do whatever you say."

Taking advantage of the situation, Li Can said directly to the strange man, "Sir, my family situation is quite complicated. How about you give me a different reward, like that management position you mentioned earlier?"

"You mean two teams, one for demolition and one for construction? Which one do you want to join?"

After thinking about it, Wei Yi realized it didn't really matter; it was a minor matter. They were going to find someone to infiltrate anyway, so they might as well use the people from the lower city that they were familiar with.

He gave up his chance to leave the city, and used this as a substitute, which can also be considered as understanding a cause and effect.

After days of work, even this eerie creature was tired. Underneath its skin was just a working animal, and it really couldn't be bothered with any more trouble.

Even if Li Can told him now that he wanted to open a restaurant on a construction site, as long as it wasn't too unreasonable, he would agree.

"Really, sir? I'll go to the demolition team. After all, I don't know much about construction, but demolition is easier," Li Can replied after pretending to think it over.

"Alright, alright, you can manage it all. If you can't handle it yourself, you can assign other people to do the work. For now, I'll leave everything here to you." Everyone was shocked by this strange statement.

Including Li Can.

As if something important had happened on his end, the strange creature hurriedly stuffed a thick stack of blueprints, labeled with words like "city construction blueprint plan," into Li Can's arms.

"Then you're the one. If anything comes up, I'll just contact you directly to hand over the responsibilities. You'll be in charge of the staff below. Do a good job. Your family has a lot of people, and after looking around, you're the most suitable one."

After all that fuss, Li Can was ultimately chosen inexplicably because she had too many "family members".

Qian Shi struggled to get up, his eyes lighting up.

"Dazhuang, which management position do you think I'm best suited for? Please arrange something like that."

Before he could finish speaking, the several strange creatures on the scene vanished, leaving only the city gate guards who had turned back into stone statues, and the gate closed.

Everything came and went quickly, like a dream.

Holding a large stack of blueprints, Li Can looked around at the aboriginal people who had surrounded him from all sides, and had no intention of paying attention to Qian Shi at this moment.

If he doesn't leave soon, he'll get injured from being trampled by the indigenous people.
