This also shows that this person is not someone to be trifled with.

Resources are all obtained through scrambling; how can an ordinary person possibly snatch them?

The crew-cut man took a few steps forward, his sharp, eagle-like eyes fixed on Yang Meili, who was leaning against the rock.

Yang Meili's eyes met his at the same time, and she instinctively felt that this person was dangerous.

"Is there anyone who has brought out something more valuable than a cigarette?" Jiang Wen looked down and scanned the area. She saw that apart from those whispering amongst themselves, the rest of the people were mostly silent.

It seems this woman is nothing special, only worth a cigarette.

"Who told you to sell it?" Zong Han's gruff voice came from behind the crowd, and everyone looked in Zong Han's direction at the same time.

Zong Han added, "Beauty is my woman."

“But I have the right to deal with this woman, Zong Han. You need to understand, this woman is just an ordinary commoner without any superpowers. You’ve been keeping her around, are you trying to break the base’s rules? It was agreed before that the base would not allow commoners without superpowers to act recklessly. They are all slaves of the base, slaves of the superpowered people.”

Besides the superhumans, a large group of ordinary people were also watching the spectacle. Upon hearing these remarks, the ordinary people in the base lowered their heads and clenched their fists.

Although I wasn't extremely wealthy or powerful before the apocalypse, I lived an upright life.

But now, world relations seem to have regressed by thousands of years, returning to a slave society overnight. The ones being enslaved are none other than those who are struggling to survive.

It's not that no one resisted at the base, but rather that every act of resistance was met with brutal suppression. Over time, no one dared to resist anymore.

All I ask for is to have something to eat.

Even so, a large number of people still do not have enough to eat or wear.

They also have to be publicly humiliated at all times.

"A slave? Then she is my slave too! Who gave you permission to sell my slaves without my permission?" Zong Han roared in fury, his voice like thunder and lightning.

A thunderclap in broad daylight.

Those with superpowers are alright, but ordinary people are almost unable to stand under the influence of this force, and some even fall to the ground and can't get up.

"Alright, this auction is over for today." Zong Han jumped onto the ruins, untied Yang Meili from the stones, put his arm around her slender waist, and Yang Meili naturally hung around Zong Han's neck.

“King Zonghan… thank goodness you came, otherwise I…” Yang Meili’s eyes were filled with tears, which hung in her eyes but did not fall.

Seeing her aggrieved expression, Zonghan felt extremely distressed.
