Chapter 33
Looking at the fat man next to him, Li Shu showed a subtle expression of disgust.
When he thought about how he had been under his control for the past few years and had to do miscellaneous tasks that no one in the guild was willing to handle, he wished he could kill him with his own hands.
Before the apocalypse, he was an ordinary employee of a small company, doing the most work and getting the lowest salary, but he was helpless. Even every time he went on a blind date, people would take a detour as soon as they heard about his salary and saw his appearance. When the apocalypse finally came, he actually survived in the first year because he accidentally drank contaminated water and became a polluter.
Others may be afraid of becoming polluters because it is equivalent to entering the countdown to death.
But he just felt excited.
This excitement lasted less than a month. He used this ability to manipulate many people and also attracted the attention of the Orderly Army.
The newly formed Lawful Army was not powerful enough to decide a person's life or death, and the Inquisition had not yet appeared.
So he was rescued by the people from the Dark Fire Guild again.
From then on, as a member of this guild, he had been working like a slave for them. The supernatural powers that he used to be proud of were completely useless in the hands of this group of polluters.
He can only manipulate ordinary people to serve as his own human shield.
And with the cover of the guild, they have been engaged in human trafficking on the black market.
Not only women are popular, but good-looking men can also be sold at a high price on the black market.
A malicious light flashed in Li Shu's eyes. He rubbed his hands and had already figured out how to be the fisherman in the quarrel between the snipe and the clam.
When the fat guy and that man start fighting, he can interfere and kill both of them.
The fat guy is at least the president, and when his life is threatened, he can at least hold him back.
He had buried the bomb long ago.
Then we can send that young man named Wenbei to the black market and sell him.
Anyone who stands in his way will die today.
Wen Bei, who was on the other side, saw the hesitation in the woman's eyes. He leaned closer and whispered, "We'll take you wherever you want to go."
The woman shook her head implicitly, her eyes filled with complex emotions, and she couldn't open her mouth to tell the young man the truth.
As long as she made this move, the parasite in her heart would suddenly tighten, and the shake of her head just now was already her greatest resistance. The sharp pain in her heart made her dare not make any other small movements.
Wen Bei noticed at a glance that her face turned pale in an instant.
His eyes turned cold for a moment, but the corners of his mouth curled up a little: "It doesn't matter, just take us there directly."
The woman was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that even at this point, the young man still refused to give up on her.
Since the first day they met, she knew that Wen Bei could see that she was not following Li Shu voluntarily.
But what can I do?
She didn't believe that in the apocalypse, anyone would be willing to go into danger for a stranger.
But now... there was a voice in her heart that made her want to believe it again.
People are always greedy. If there is a chance to survive, who wouldn't want to put out a fire?
Perhaps it was the calmness in Wen Bei's eyes that suddenly touched her heart, which had been numb for a long time.
The woman clenched her hands suddenly, her voice trembling: "Okay."
Wen Bei and Huang Qian exchanged glances, and they followed the woman. Huang Qian deliberately dropped half a body length behind her, as this position was the most convenient for her to attack.
This place is the famous gray area of the base. There are shops with all kinds of people nearby. The Orderly Army rarely passes by here for patrol. After leaving the bar, the woman led them directly to an abandoned construction site.
This construction site was originally an unfinished building. After the base was completed, the ownership of this area had never been negotiated, so it was left here and few people would pass by.
Wen Bei stood still in the open space, silently putting his hands in his pockets and holding the cold, round little stopwatch again.
That's his trump card.
I got it from the rabbit butler before leaving the hotel.
Wen Bei: "Get out of here."
The fat man walked out from the darkness. His bruised face was specially repaired by the base's famous healing polluter, and now his original appearance was revealed.
The eyes on his face have single eyelids, which are squeezed by the flesh to almost become a slit.
He completely ignored Wen Bei and looked directly at Huang Qian: "I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, President Huang."
Huang Qian giggled and stood there in a conspicuous red dress, her figure very slim: "This person is my most important employer now."
The implication is that we will never give in.
While they were talking, pairs of empty eyes appeared and watched them in the darkness.
The woman shuddered with fear. She looked up and found that they were actually dolls.
The puppets were so delicately shaped that they looked like fresh corpses.
She couldn't help but scream in fear.
Huang Qian: "That's his special ability [Puppet Master], which can transform corpses into puppets."
The fat man glanced at Wen Bei greedily: "You are also suitable to be my puppet."
The "puppets" took a step forward and narrowed the encirclement.
Huang Qian began to feel cold, and the temperature of the surrounding air dropped several degrees in an instant.
Frost began to form on the dolls.
Huang Qian smiled: "Do you want me to freeze all these puppets of yours and smash them to pieces?"
The fat man was indeed afraid. He moved slightly, and all the puppets stopped approaching and obeyed his orders.
The fat man glanced at Wen Bei and decided to try a different approach: "Even if you want to protect him, you don't have the chance. A poisonous insect has been planted in his body. If you dare to resist, the insect will crush your heart."
An expression of disbelief appeared on the woman's face. She only knew that Li Shu's special ability was poison, but she didn't know under what conditions it would be possible.
She looked at the fat man and suddenly realized that the problem might be with her.
I was used again.
The woman was so frightened that her legs went limp and she sat down on the ground, saying sorry in a daze.
Huang Qian was stunned for a moment and looked at Wen Bei, but the other party was very calm.
Infected by this, Huang Qian calmed down.
She guessed that the innkeeper was unfathomable and how could he be infected by a tiny poisonous insect.
Seeing that they did not show the panic he had imagined, Li Shu stretched out his hand and tried to activate the poisonous insect in Wen Bei's body.
It hurt so much that he had to kneel down and beg for mercy.
A look of determination appeared in Li Shu's eyes, and he suddenly stretched out his hand - nothing happened.
This time it was his turn to be stunned.
The smile doesn't disappear, it just shifts.
Wen Bei stood there, curled his eyes, and deliberately said something very irritating: "Huh? Gu worm?"
Li Shu had known about supernatural powers for a long time.
This ability is indeed deadly to ordinary people.
Unfortunately, he is not from this world.
The pollution rules of this world cannot be applied to him.
He possesses not only the hotel, but also a pure physique that all human beings in this world dream of and will never be infected by any pollution.
A smile transfers more than just one person.
Soon the fat man could no longer laugh. When he saw that Wen Bei had not made any movement, his sense of crisis suddenly reached its maximum.
"A-How are you okay?"
The fat man's eyes suddenly widened, and one of the puppets rushed to where Li Shu was hiding and grabbed him out directly.
The puppet is so strong that it seems to be able to crush a person's bones.
Li Shu struggled: "I don't know! I don't know anything!"
He finally panicked.
My own special abilities are useless here.
The fat man didn't believe it: "You dare to betray me?"
Before Li Shu could say anything, he was punched in the face. One of his teeth fell out and blood was spit onto the ground.
"What a dog-eat-dog situation." Huang Qian whistled.
The fat man couldn't bother with Li Shu now. He knew that he would not be able to beat Huang Qian if he fought her face to face, but what if he let Wen Bei escape here.
What awaits him is only an even more horrific end.
Fear appeared in the fat man's eyes, and this fear quickly turned into a desperate gamble.
The puppets with their eyes gouged out walked towards them again with the sound of their joints clicking.
Wen Bei didn't expect that even at this point, this person still didn't want to let him go.
What on earth did Qiu Tinge do to them to attract such hatred?
He twitched his lips and put his hand into his pocket again.
An ice arrow also appeared in Huang Qian's hand.
Just as they were ready to go, a sound of footsteps, neither light nor heavy, suddenly came from outside the abandoned construction site.
Everyone stopped moving in a strange and unified manner and looked towards the source of the sound.
The footsteps seemed to be not stepping on the ground, but on people's hearts, making their breathing become rapid.
Under the soft moonlight, Qiu Ding strolled in leisurely from outside, a gentle smile on his face: "So lively?"
A huge black tail unfolded behind it, and its shadow enveloped the remaining moonlight.
His expression could no longer be seen.
Even the dullest person could sense this unusual murderous aura.
Qiu Ting stopped quietly and said, "I'm here to pick up the naughty little bird at home. I hope I didn't disturb your fun."
A hint of amusement appeared in his eyes, and he looked at Fatty and Li Shu.
Huang Qian felt even colder. The man who suddenly appeared here made her hair stand on end.
Her instinct prompted her to escape from here.
Wen Bei loosened the stopwatch in his pocket.
Now that Qiu Ting has found this place, there is no need for him to reveal his cards.
Huang Qian watched Qiu Tin walk towards Wen Bei. She wanted to issue a warning, but her voice faltered when she opened her mouth due to nervousness.
Wen Bei shook his head at her, indicating that she didn't need to worry.
Qiu Tinge smiled and said, "Made new friends?"
Wen Bei: "This is the bodyguard I hired."
Qiu Ting showed a slightly hurt expression, but his eyes were cold: "Isn't it enough that you made a promise with me?"
He leaned over slightly and approached Wen Bei, whispering softly, "You smell like alcohol."
His tone was full of tea flavor, as if Wen Bei had done something to betray him.
Huang Qian couldn't see Qiu Tin's expression, she could only hear his words, and her eyes were filled with shock: "Boss, so you..."
After determining that Qiu Tin was not on the fat man's side, she felt much more relieved.
If Wen Bei were a cat, his fur would have stood out right now. He paused and said, "...No, it's not what you think."
No matter what Huang Qian is thinking now, it must not be something good.
Huang Qian didn't believe it and began to blame herself.
It turns out the boss already has a partner, and she seems to be such a powerful polluter.
It must be because I took my boss to the bar that my boss’ boyfriend was unhappy.
They seem so close to each other, they must have had a very good relationship.
Huang Qian silently watched their figures almost overlapping, took a step back, and said in a deep voice, "No need to explain, I understand."
It is better to destroy ten temples than to break up a relationship.
