Apocalypse: the Most Ruthless Person

"I know you’ve finished talking."

Zhang Su said softly to the corpse on the ground, then wiped his dog leg military saber, which hadn’t touched human blood for a long time, on Liu Ming’s body, and sheathed it afterward.

There was never any intention to spare Liu Ming’s life. After he voiced rebellious statements, his death was certain.

It’s not wrong to go with the flow, but betrayal is never appreciated!

Zhang Su frowned slightly, with many questions in his mind, but knowing Liu Ming had been completely squeezed dry, considering his status, it was impossible for him to know more. Even if there were questions, it would be necessary to capture the task commander this time, which was Wu Baokang of the Survivor Alliance.

"The four families are uniting against me... no, according to Liu Ming’s words, mainly the Survivor Alliance led the charge to expand northward. Why not choose the Bridge Town? Oh yes, the bridge there is broken..."

Zhang Su leaned against the wall, pondering. Many questions couldn’t be figured out right now, and dealing with the immediate situation was the key.

There were still fifteen people to handle. The Civilization Guardian could be considered allies; they must not be killed, otherwise even Old Li’s loyalty to him might not integrate the entire Civilization Guardian into Celestial Horse Island. This is the limitation of loyalty imprint—it can only bring one person to allegiance, but the forces he controls may not all obey...

From Liu Ming’s words, Zhang Su could tell that the current size and strength of the Civilization Guardian were quite good, and they had initially been kept in the dark about a lot of things. At the very least, high-tech products like night vision goggles, thermal imaging, and drones weren’t handed over—only some ordinary equipment was given. That was because Pang Dakun quickly procured a lot; otherwise, there would have been even less available initially.

"Damn it, luckily I was cautious just now!"

Thinking of the opponent having thermal imaging binoculars made Zhang Su smirk. In this cold weather, thermal imaging binoculars are very useful. As soon as he showed up, he would have been seen. Thankfully, he had snuck closer from the wild area.

"Old Li, Old Li, let’s see how your soldiers perform."

Zhang Su took out the walkie-talkie and began deploying troops, while his eyes turned towards the opposite street. Just like when he first met Wu Daqiang, the other was again hiding on the third floor of a shop.

Shortly after, eight vehicles came speeding from the north, each with high beams on, illuminating the entire street. Not only that, but they also collectively honked as they were about to enter the town, their noisy honking echoing through the sky!

"What’s going on?"

In the shop where the Survivor Alliance was resting, Wu Baokang was lying awake, startled by the flashing lights before the honking even started. Since he had just fallen asleep, his sleep was light, and upon opening his eyes, the blaring honks and frantic shouting over the walkie-talkie indicated their sentries were notifying them of an incoming attack!

Everyone in the Survivor Alliance hurriedly got up, using the walls for cover, peeking outside to see what was happening.

The Apocalypse Corps didn’t react as quickly as the Survivor Alliance, but they quickly took action. No wonder Liu Ming called them cowards. Five of them were discussing how to capitulate and then escape...

As for the Civilization Guardian, the sentry Xiaotiao first saw the headlights from the north but didn’t immediately notify everyone. Instead, he first woke up his own brothers. When the vehicles approached the town and started honking, confirming they were coming for them, he quickly picked up the walkie-talkie to notify the others!

No time was left for the investigation team to react. Eight vehicles quickly stopped on the road outside the pit, and the headlights, either straight or angled, illuminated the hiding spots of the fifteen people, making the row of shops look as bright as day!

"Hello, hello, ahem, ahem..."

A voice came over the loudspeaker, and after testing the sound, a steady voice said, "Coming to our Celestial Horse Island territory without prior notice, staying in this dark and cold broken town, it might give people the wrong impression that we don’t understand etiquette. Everyone, come out—Survivor Alliance, Civilization Guardian, and our friends from the Apocalypse Corps!"

The people from the three factions looked at each other, bewildered by how their situation was so clearly known to the other side. But after a moment’s thought, they understood—the other side only mentioned three factions, while they were clearly four, meaning the Little Eagle Association must have betrayed them!

"Damn it, the Little Eagle Association betrayed us! No wonder they wanted to stay alone earlier!"

"Did they ever say they wanted to stay alone? Clearly, we followed the Apocalypse Corps here, but that doesn’t clear their suspicion!"

"Shit, we must get this message back to the leader, or there will be big trouble!"

The Survivor Alliance looked grim, never expecting the Little Eagle Association to be the mole. Liao Youzhi was well aware of the recent movements of the Little Eagle Association and had never seen them have any contact with the north. The whole situation reeked of mystery!

The Apocalypse Corps’ faces were like constipation. The Little Eagle Association looked down on them, and naturally, there was no love lost between the two. They always thought of the Little Eagle Association as brutes, but who knew they were so skilled, having set up a huge trap, now capturing them all!

The Civilization Guardian remained the calmest. Realizing they might have been sold out by the Little Eagle Association, they began to think of countermeasures. However, before they could come up with anything, the loudspeaker sounded again, shocking them.

"Are you thinking, clearly four factions came to execute this task, yet we didn’t mention the Little Eagle Association? That’s because the three members of the Little Eagle Association broke etiquette, and our leader, King Yama, has already sent them to the Underworld. Hope you come out quickly and don’t keep the Yama Corps waiting!"

Yuwen’s voice echoed in the town’s airspace. The previous words left the adversary bewildered, and this time, it left their own people dumbfounded.

"Sister Xinyu, when did Brother Su think of this name? So fierce..."

"Yes, he’s King Yama, we’re the Yama Corps, that’s all fine, but with this, doesn’t Celestial Horse Island become the Yama Hall?"

"I... I don’t know either..."

Zheng Xinyu was also in the team. Faced with questions from several female members, she exaggeratedly shrugged her shoulders, completely unaware where the titles of King Yama and Yama Corps came from...

"Hahaha, this domineering name is really good!"

"No wonder it’s my Brother Su, King Yama, excellent!"

"Hahaha, Boss Zhang deserves the title of King Yama; our village has been calling him that!"

Lu Yubo, Zhao Dezhu, and Wang Longzhong showed looks of delight. They were very satisfied with the name Yama Corps and thought Zhang Su had planned all this long ago, waiting for a perfect opportunity to launch such a name, giving them all a pleasant surprise!
