Yesterday, Thug Prison successfully leaked information about several bait sentry points.
The trap for Carmen has been laid, just waiting for Carmen to take the bait.
To ensure the success of this operation, Baku specifically hid the two Mechanical Modification Bodies provided by the mysterious supporter within the team, aiming for a one-hit kill.

Danger Level: MediumIn recent days, the May Alliance from the western district has contacted other thug factions within the city. They feel they cannot just wait around meaninglessly any longer.
Currently, the Aurora Animal Assistance Association holds a dominant position, and with the armed protection of the Black Shield Police Department, they have become a significant threat to other factions.
Furthermore, the powerful alliance between Thug Prison, Burning Fortress, and the Iron Anchor Shipping Company has also made them feel the pressure.
Although these two allied forces are currently locked in confrontation, no one can guarantee they won't later turn to annex these scattered, idle factions.
Therefore, after negotiations, the May Alliance from the western district, the Black Rock Caravan from the northern district, the Green Forest Parliament Alliance from the central district, and the Big Gold Tooth Brotherhood from the southern district are about to form the [Ring East City Resistance Alliance].
This is to cope with the increasingly severe survival situation and the threat of war.

According to monitoring reports from the Green Forest Sea area, in recent times, there have been continuous sightings of massive sea creatures appearing in the Green Forest Sea. Based on eyewitness accounts, these sea creatures vary in form, with sizes ranging from over ten meters to over twenty meters.
It is also confirmed that they are not large marine life like sharks or whales.
One eyewitness claimed that one of these massive sea creatures appeared to be a sea turtle, which was attacking several moving cargo ships at the time.

Regarding the three news items, Yu Yuan had already alerted Carmen about the first one, and he soon received Carmen's reply indicating he was aware.
This also let Yu Yuan breathe a sigh of relief.
Carmen also brought him a rather intriguing piece of news.
That was, yesterday morning, he reported the incident of killing the blood slave to Chief Hogg and placed the four Blood Slave's Teeth in front of Hogg.
Carmen claimed that for a moment, he sensed an aura of death and brutality.
This aura emanated from Hogg. Although it flashed by in an instant, under Carmen's careful observation, he still managed to perceive it.
Seeing this, Yu Yuan was already quite certain that after Hogg injected the gray wolf Genetic Modification Serum,
his essence was no longer human but had entered the realm of werewolves. Therefore, upon seeing the Blood Slave's Teeth and sensing the Blood Clan aura emanating from them, he couldn't control the impulses brought by his spirituality.
This discovery further solidified Yu Yuan's determination not to inject the Genetic Modification Serum.
He could use some potions or special items for the sake of strength, but injecting this kind of serum with obvious hidden dangers? His brain wasn't that fried.
What happened next goes without saying. Hogg took away those four Blood Slave's Teeth. Clearly, the sudden impulse had also caught Hogg's attention.
However, since Yu Yuan had already confirmed Hogg's reaction to the Blood Clan, his purpose was achieved. He naturally didn't care about those teeth anymore.
Instead, the latter two news items in the newspaper were quite interesting.
Yu Yuan hadn't expected the remaining thug factions to also choose to unite to counter the threats posed by the Aurora Animal Assistance Association and the three-faction coalition forces.
In other words, from now on, the landscape of thug factions in Green Forest City has completely changed.
It's no longer the previous situation where each ruled their own territory and were hostile to each other.
It has transformed into a clash between three powerful thug faction alliances.
Hmm~ Like... the Three Kingdoms?
Yu Yuan was also slightly taken aback.
Well, it does have a bit of that flavor.
The name [Ring East City Resistance Alliance]... who knows which genius came up with it? It almost made Yu Yuan think he'd stumbled into the Pacific Rim series!
Yu Yuan curled his lip in disdain.
However, he didn't believe these cunning guys formed an alliance just for self-preservation.
Yu Yuan curled his lip in disdain.
When two elephants fight, they don't care how many ants they trample.
Yu Yuan decided he could later find a way to dig deeper into the situation of this [Ring East City Resistance Alliance]. Perhaps there might be something he could exploit.
As for the last piece of news in the newspaper,
Yu Yuan was clear that the so-called massive sea creature resembling a sea turtle was, in all likelihood, the Nizi Water Arrow Turtle.
And the cargo ships it attacked were most likely from the Iron Anchor Shipping Company.
They stole the Nizi Water Arrow Turtle's eggs. Who else would it attack if not them?
However, besides the Nizi Water Arrow Turtle, what's the deal with the other so-called massive sea creatures?
Yu Yuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
Green Forest City is in chaos now, utter chaos. From above ground to underground, from land to sea, everything is in turmoil.
The time reached 8 AM. There were only 24 hours left until tomorrow's 'Wasteland Trial'.
On the Virtual Light Screen, information about the Wasteland Battle Royale starting at 8 AM tomorrow immediately appeared.

Looking at the preview information before him, Yu Yuan was also utterly bewildered.
There were actually equipment restrictions.
Right off the bat, his firepower advantage was limited.
Looking at the preview information before him, Yu Yuan was also utterly bewildered.
Yu Yuan began analyzing the situation.
"The location is inside a building called Freedom Tower. Eight players enter per match, plus neutral Infected creatures, and escape pods."
"Isn't this still 'loot, fight, extract'?"
Yu Yuan immediately grasped the essence of the Wasteland Battle Royale.
Understanding it this way, Yu Yuan immediately saw the key to this event.
Well, whether you want to fight or play the rat scavenging for treasure, there's room to maneuver.
A prompt also popped up on the Virtual Panel.
[Detected that player ID: Yu Yuan Shelter has passed the Newbie Protection Period and meets the conditions. Participate in this 'Wasteland Trial'?]
Well, whether you want to fight or play the rat scavenging for treasure, there's room to maneuver.
He opened the Book of Fate and chose to activate that green card.
"An event with extremely high resource value is worth using this card for!"
