At this moment, Du Jingcai entered a state of ecstasy and concentrated all his strength on his fist.
He had no idea who the man standing in front of him was, but one thing was undeniable: even the Burning Demon beside him trembled in fear when he saw him.
In the previous battle, Du Jingcai and Yang Shuo fought fiercely. It can be said that each of them revealed their deepest hidden cards, which led to the current situation.
It can be said that in Du Jingcai's heart, Yang Shuo has long been regarded as an extraordinary person. The entire Devil City is full of talented people, but no one can possibly defeat Yang Shuo.
At the beginning, Yang Shuo's aura was too strong, and there was no difference at all from the demons he had encountered before. Therefore, in Du Jingcai's eyes, he had already determined that the other party was a creature from the abyss.
This is Devil City, a stronghold in the wasteland. Although there are many professionals, there are always good and bad people in every era. Among these professionals, there are some extremists who regard them as thorns in their eyes and bones in their flesh.
After all, during the time when Du Jingcai was the commander-in-chief, he allocated a lot of supplies to the civilians. Many professionals who had fallen into darkness had been secretly denying their decision for a long time.
Those professionals who have lost all their humanity, after gaining terrifying powers, have come to regard themselves as some kind of supernatural beings and are no longer so-called human beings.
They have a high opinion of themselves and always feel superior to others. In their view, giving food and supplies to the poor is simply a waste. It would be better to give them to themselves to help professionals like themselves to improve their realm early.
After all, in this scary world, only professionals like each other can truly protect the Devil City.
And what about the civilians
The amount of food consumed every day is terrifying, and when participating in battles, they even tremble and stagger like a mouse. Keeping those people in captivity is like feeding hundreds of thousands of pigs with good feed in peacetime. It is simply a heinous waste.
These people have long ceased to be human. They only have human facial features, but lack the so-called compassion and kindness.
These people form groups in private and support some professionals who advocate selfishness as leaders, and the other party becomes their number one enemy.
Lee Bin Won!
As long as the other party exists, it will be a fatal threat to me.
But the other party has gathered some strength over the years. If they are killed, Devil City will immediately become a turbulent stronghold. It is precisely because of this that Du Jing turns a blind eye when doing things.
The other party's ambitions grew, and under such circumstances, the slums were handed over to the other party. At that time, the death and injury rate in the slums increased greatly.
Du Jingcai originally thought that a demon like Yang Shuo might be a helper summoned by Li Binyuan using special means. That was why Du Jingcai dismissed everyone and tried to kill the other party with his powerful mouth.
After all, if this demon is not eliminated, it will be a disaster not only for himself, but also for other people in this city.
But in the subsequent battle, Du Jingcai was surprised to find that the Burning Demon in front of him was not like a demon or some unintelligent monster, but more like a human being.
After that, Du Jingcai began to observe intentionally, and after learning that the other party was not really a demon, but a human being, and a resident from the slums, Du Jingcai began to appreciate his talent.
After all, he didn't have many people available.
Even though Yang Shuo wanted to kill himself, he was also thinking about the people in the slums. The other party's ideas were similar to his own. Even if the other party had a devil face, it was not a problem at all.
But who would have thought that there were other people behind Yang Shuo, and now in order to survive, he had no choice but to enter this quagmire and could not extricate himself.
… … … … …
Someone attacked
After listening to his subordinates' explanation, Li Binyuan fell into deep thought.
In peacetime, Li Binyuan was a well-known big brother in the underworld. He was a vicious person and never paid attention to details in doing things. After gaining power, he had a high opinion of himself and regarded himself as a truly extraordinary person.
In the face of such emotions, he naturally does not take ordinary people seriously.
Li Binyuan discovered that there were many people who had this idea, so he began to secretly build his own force. No, among them there were many equally powerful professionals. It would be more accurate to say that it was a real alliance rather than a force.
In that alliance, the division of labor was clear. There were hermits who were good at exploration, military strategists who were diligent in thinking, and warriors who were in charge of killing.
It is also full of diverse talents. One person’s strength is limited, ten people’s strength is strong, so what about the strength of a hundred people
In this land of apocalypse, the most important thing to do is to stick together!
But even though Li Binyuan was so powerful, he still didn't dare to show up.
This caused countless people who were part of this alliance to feel a sense of suffocation in their chests.
Is Li Binyuan too weak? No! The other party is too strong!
"Brother, should we attack the commander now?"
"No, it's not the time yet." Li Binyuan thought for a few seconds and shook his head.
Seeing the heavy expressions of his men, Li Binyuan sighed inwardly. Although he had successfully formed an alliance with many professionals, Li Binyuan also felt that the assassination of Du Jingcai was a bit strange. He even vaguely felt that a strong murderous intent was shrouding his mind, like haze. He could feel it, but could not touch or see through it.
Li Binyuan sighed and slowly said, "This world is not as simple as you see it. Du Jingcai is still the leader of Devil City. You and I cannot fully explode yet."
"Brother, we have come to this point. Now that Du Jingcai has been ambushed by a stranger, it is time for us to take action. I don't understand." Li Binyuan's words became more and more mysterious, which made his subordinates a little panicked. He frowned and expressed his doubts.
As for his subordinates, Li Binyuan trained them as his own people from the very beginning, so when faced with his subordinates' questions, Li Binyuan did not make any choice, but instead told them the hidden dangers in his heart.
This way, this way and that.
After listening to Li Binyuan's explanation, his subordinates were greatly shocked!
No matter what, they could not believe that the city lord, whom they looked down upon, actually had such a background.
According to Li Binyuan's description, Du Jingcai has recruited alchemists and is now refining medicinal materials. Even if some people are disloyal to him and are greedy for money, the entire city's wealth will all pass through Du Jingcai's hands. No one knows what kind of background the other party has.
You can imagine that even a fat pig could be transformed into a giant beast with the blessing of such power, let alone a leader with extraordinary talents
All of this made him feel like he was in a dream, and his entire body and mind were in a state of stagnation in an instant. He did not wake up until Li Binyuan coughed lightly.
As soon as his mind cleared up, his subordinates asked anxiously: "Brother, are you suspicious that our commander has been successfully promoted and the so-called sneak attack is just an act? Are they waiting for us to take the bait?"
In response to his subordinates' questions, Li Binyuan shook his head slightly. It was not that he didn't want to say it, but he had no idea what Du Jingcai was thinking.
Li Binyuan sighed and said helplessly: "I don't know either, but the fact that Du Jing has survived countless assassinations proves that he is definitely not an ordinary person."
Li Binyuan expressed it very clearly, and his subordinates certainly knew what the so-called leader meant in the hearts of all the survivors in Devil City.
"What? Are you scared?" Looking at his men with frowned brows and looks as if they were facing doomsday, Li Binyuan asked with a sneer.
Although Li Binyuan suffered considerable physical injuries in the previous battle with the green-skinned monster, his heart was always full of fighting spirit and faith. So when he saw his subordinates showing such expressions, he felt a little unhappy and his tone became a little cold.
"No! I'm just surprised at how powerful the so-called Great Commander is. He can suppress countless forces and ambitious people in this Devil City like this!"
Facing Li Binyuan, the subordinate spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly.
When the end of the world came, his entire family was slaughtered, and his heart was already as cold as ice and sword.
The barefoot are not afraid of those wearing shoes. He is not even afraid of death, so how could he be afraid of the so-called Du Jingcai!
Seeing his men's piercing eyes, they didn't seem to be lying, so Li Binyuan's face gradually calmed down, but his tone was still as cold as before: "We can't defeat them now, but that doesn't mean we can't defeat them in the future! Don't go out recently, wait until the limelight comes before doing anything else, give me some time..."
At this point, Li Binyuan paused, his voice gradually becoming a little hoarse: "I will definitely kill Du Jingcai and take control of the Devil City!"
Li Binyuan's words were like a ghost crying, and his hoarse voice flowed into the ears of his subordinates. It seemed to have a special magic. It was a promise or an affirmation. Even though Li Binyuan was not using energy now, his subordinates still believed that Li Binyuan would do what he said.
Du Jingcai just protects those ordinary people!
Countless foods and resources have been given to ordinary people. If those resources can also be given to myself, then my strength will definitely be in a stage of explosive growth!
Thinking of this, Li Binyuan felt somewhat unhappy. He closed his eyes and said, "You go out first. I want to be alone for a while."
"yes!"
The subordinate answered very straightforwardly, then slowly retreated, giving Li Binyuan enough space to recuperate.
After the two left, Li Binyuan opened his eyes again, but unlike the calmness before, his eyes were filled with extreme madness and terror. He looked at the ceiling and murmured, "Du Jingcai, no matter this is a conspiracy or there is a real force that can't wait to plot against you, you must live well, because if you have to wait for me, I, Li Binyuan, swear that I will repay you a hundredfold and a thousandfold! Wait for me, you must wait for me!"
… … … … …
War preparation station.
This is the nemesis of criminals. In the last days, people's morale is low and the inner world of many people has changed. They have committed all kinds of evil, including burning, killing and looting. Unlike the order, the Devil City has not yet perfected its laws. Therefore, those who do evil will be locked up here and await punishment.
But unlike before, the air in this solemn environment became heavier, like a huge rock, pressing down on the hearts of everyone in the building, making them feel as if they couldn't breathe.
The once powerful Black Tiger sat aside, his face showing bitterness and helplessness. He did not look like a smiling tiger at all, and was as quiet as a cat.
This is a half-orc. When he goes berserk, he will turn into a terrifying half-human, half-tiger creature. He is the second-in-command of the War Preparation Center.
But even such a terrifying existence now has a trembling expression, which is indescribably miserable and timid.
At this time, he had a bitter look on his face, lowered his head and remained silent. He did not have his former temperament and unrestrained attitude at all!
"Tell me! Tell me, what is the identity of the sneak attacker? I asked you to keep an eye on it, but you only brought me this useless information?"
In front of the crowd was a square-faced young man with dark skin and sword-like eyebrows that stuck to his brow bones, giving people a feeling of invincibility.
Leader of the War Preparation Institute.
Tian Canglan.
The name is majestic and the way he behaves is like the big waves in the river, giving people a feeling of turbulent waves.
Like Li Binyuan, Tian Canglan is also an ambitious person. He holds a high position in peacetime and can be said to have some power.
After the end of the world, he created a force by relying on his successful awakening and previous connections.
But Tian Canglan ultimately underestimated the end of the world. In this world, everything in the past had no effect at all.
In peacetime, he has connections and eats and communicates with many powerful people. Not to mention a city, even a province would give him some face.
But after the end of the world, zombies and insects, as well as countless demons and monsters, are rampant in the world. Those horrible creatures gather together, and there is no mercy at all.
Tian Canglan has been in the officialdom for half his life and can be said to be very good at dealing with people, but the insects will not stop attacking because of some of his words. On the contrary, after seeing humans, those insects and zombies will immediately turn into monsters and try to attack.
The force formed by Tian Canglan was completely destroyed before it even lasted a month. Although he was very unwilling, what could he do
In this situation, he could only choose to depend on others. At that time, the terrifying Devil City emerged as a new force. In that desperate situation, the other party surrendered to Du Jingcai's men.
But as a fierce tiger, how could he be willing to serve under a young man who was still wet behind the ears? After that, he relied on Du Jingcai to slowly gain a foothold, but the ambition in his heart was slowly released.
For several years, he has been using the power given to him by Du Jingcai to win over some of his confidants, so that one day he can overturn the stone that is pressing on him and take control of this long-desired Devil City.
Tian Canglan narrowed his eyes, looking like a tiger waking up from sleep. The next second, he muttered to himself: "I asked you to investigate, what do you know? Tell me everything!"
