World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1786 - 59: Plague Temple (5)_2

Olorato naturally knew that this proposal was unlikely to be fulfilled. With his current physical strength, let alone walking out of the ruin space, he couldn’t even stand up and walk out of this base. Saying this was nothing but self-comfort in desperation.

"I still have two sons... they are still waiting for me to return... I cannot die..."

In the silence, a hoarse voice suddenly emerged in the room. Olorato turned his head laboriously to look; the speaker was a dark-skinned man. He hardly knew anyone here; everyone had taken refuge temporarily, and now they became the last companions awaiting death in the same cage.

With the dark-skinned man’s words, intermittent sobbing started again in the room. Olorato couldn’t help but sigh. Who among the people here is not like this? At home, he also has a mother, a wife, and children waiting for his return, but what they are likely to receive in the end is only a cold death notice.

"Great Dark Spirit God, eternal Master of Life, immortal Starry Sky Giant God, resilient God of Miners... whoever you are, please help me... please save me... as long as you grant me a new life, I will become your most faithful believer... I will never betray you..."

Olorato mumbled softly to himself; he wasn’t originally a believer in gods, but at this moment, he had nothing else he could do. Besides calmly waiting for death, all that was left was to pray, even though he knew it was meaningless.

Some people were too weak to speak by now and could only listen to Olorato’s prayer, silently reciting along in their hearts.

"Crack~"

Just as despair filled everyone’s hearts, there was a cracking sound from the metal wall of the resting area, and a ray of light shone in from outside.

Zhang Xiaoman easily lifted the broken wall, standing radiantly in front of everyone.

"God... is it really a manifestation of God...?"

Olorato looked at this figure appearing like a divine spirit; he couldn’t believe his eyes for a moment, thinking it was an illusion created when a person was near death.

"It seems that there are only a few survivors left in this base."

Zhang Xiaoman glanced around at the people lying in the room and casually cast a group healing technique, pulling them back from the brink of death.

"Huh, huh, huh..."

Olorato then suddenly sat up in shock, breathing heavily like a person about to drown who finally surfaced at the last moment.

Among these few people, his physical status was relatively the best. At this moment, after receiving treatment from Zhang Xiaoman, he immediately regained his mobility.

"You... you are... the Extreme Star Elder!"

Olorato immediately recognized Zhang Xiaoman’s identity. As a member of the gathering troop, he naturally inquired about the top powers involved in this operation, and Zhang Xiaoman was one of them.

"Elder, there’s still an elder on our side!"

At the same moment, everyone present had the same thought.

They had thought that with Rothschild’s surprise attack, all the elders had perished, not expecting that there was still an elder alive from the Lan Family.

"You seem to be in a better state; I didn’t expect you to survive here in this resting area; it seems your fate didn’t abandon you."

"Elder... thank you for saving us, but what is the actual situation on our side? The other people in the base and the clan leader..."

Olorato asked intermittently, initially thinking that the Lan Family was completely defeated in this battle, but now seeing the Extreme Star Elder, he felt there might be hope, that things might not be as bad as he imagined.

Zhang Xiaoman saw his hopeful eyes, sighed slightly, and shook his head:

"They are all dead, including Lan Gu and the other elders. You are the only survivors."

"All... all dead...?"

Hearing this, everyone felt a deep sadness, and the little hope that had risen earlier was once again shattered.

"This is not a place to stay for long. I suggest you leave quickly. However, the base’s transport shuttle is damaged; you may need to figure out a way yourselves."

Zhang Xiaoman reminded them.

Only then did Olorato and the others recover from their grief. Yes, although the base was destroyed, at least they were still alive. The current problem was how they could leave here.

"Um... Extreme Star Elder... you see... we can’t move in this environment... could you..."

The dark-skinned middle-aged man said nervously and hesitantly, not daring to look directly at Zhang Xiaoman for fear of displeasing him.

Zhang Xiaoman slightly shook his head and said:

"Probably not; I can’t take you to the entrance of the ruins. With your physical conditions, you would die once you leave this resting area, and I’m afraid this room won’t hold for much longer either."

Zhang Xiaoman was thoughtful, feeling that he might be able to use these people for his own purposes.

Don’t underestimate these few as ordinary people without spiritual power, merely negligible miners in the Lan Family’s gathering troop.

In reality, these people were truly talented.

What kind of power is the Lan Family? They have the qualifications to participate as a super family in this entire star domain as one of the Eleven Lords. Given the scale of their family, those sent to participate in this ruin exploration were all elite among elites, including the 20,000 gathering troopers.

Don’t think of them as mere miners here; in other places, they would be top talents that every planet would gladly recruit.

Their understanding of mineral veins goes beyond just mining; each of them could independently oversee the survey, excavation, and refinement projects of all planetary mineral veins within an entire star system.

How could Zhang Xiaoman possibly let go of such valuable human resources?

Therefore, he needed to think of a way to make these people follow him.

"However, although I can’t take you to the entrance of the ruins, I can open a space channel for you to another universe, but you won’t be able to return afterwards."

"Another universe? Unable to return...?"

The few of them did not expect life’s ups and downs to come so suddenly. Initially, upon hearing Zhang Xiaoman’s previous words, they felt as if dealt a massive blow, but upon hearing that he had a way to save them, each revealed a look of astonishment.

"I am willing! I am willing! Thank you, Extreme Star Elder, for saving us!"

Every person present, down to the last one, nodded frantically in agreement.

Are you kidding? By this point, survival is the most important thing. As for another universe and whether they can return, in comparison to life, those concerns become insignificant. After all, one choice is death, the other is leaving one’s home; anyone with a bit of sense would make the right decision.

Zhang Xiaoman was very satisfied with their response. In fact, should they be willing, he could bring their families over from the Second Universe later, reuniting the whole family in the First Universe as well. After all, the two universes were bound to merge eventually, making no difference.

He extended a hand, in the palm of which the light of the Eye of the Starry Sky shone bright. Then a force of space spread out, enveloping everyone present. After a flash of light, they were completely teleported to the Original Realm.
