Xu Xing sighed: "He still got away, leaving behind a great menace."
In fact, by the time Gao Qiqiang met up with his men, it was already too late to catch up.
At most, it's just for show. What can you do? They have more men. If they don't run away and continue fighting, Xu Xing really has no confidence in winning against them.
After watching the departing Audi for a while, it was clear that, given this setback, Qiangsheng Group would likely remain out of the picture for quite some time.
We can only wait until next time, after we have absorbed and integrated enough talent, to completely destroy their stronghold.
Let them develop peacefully for a while.
After sighing, Xu Xing stepped into the main hall of Buckingham Palace.
The scene in Buckingham Hall was no longer filled with carnage, but the view before one's eyes was no less dramatic than that in a horror movie.
There were at least a hundred corpses of all kinds lying on the ground, and dozens of people were seriously injured, some lying on the ground unable to get up, and others lying face down groaning in pain.
Cold weapons are different from firearms. Once hit, they are usually not minor injuries. Losing an arm or a leg is secondary. If an organ is accidentally pierced, although it will not kill on the spot, it means that there is little chance of survival in this era.
Xu Xing used his telekinetic power to push aside the corpse blocking his way and continued walking forward.
To his relief, despite the large number of casualties, he had not yet seen a single one who truly belonged to his command.
More than half of them were from the Qingjing Gang. After all, before Ye Kai brought his men into the battle, the Qiangsheng Group's numerical advantage still overwhelmed the Qingjing Gang.
Moreover, the forty or fifty old gang members who had received Xu Xing's attention seemed to be given special care by the Qiangsheng Group, and more than half of the corpses that fell were theirs.
At this moment, Ye Kai seemed to have finished the battle on the innermost side. Carrying Lao Mo's corpse, he came to Xu Xing.
Ye Kai's strong body was covered with knife wounds and even a few shallow bullet holes. Although they were only on the surface of the skin, the blood that kept oozing out looked extremely gruesome.
The old man he was carrying had been beaten beyond recognition, his body now significantly smaller than before.
Ye Kai casually tossed Lao Mo aside: "Boss, this Qiangsheng Group is indeed quite powerful. It's a pity I only kept this most powerful one."
At this time, the other members also gradually arrived, each with some injuries on their bodies.
Xu Xing nodded to them and glanced around.
Upon noticing that two ordinary people seemed to be missing, before he could even speak, Zhou Feng, clutching a severed arm, said, "Boss, we've lost two members this time."
Seeing this, Xu Xing took out bandages and ointment from his spatial storage and prepared to bandage Zhou Feng.
"No need, I can do it myself." Zhou Feng waved one hand.
"Let me help you. Be more careful next time. If you can't beat someone, find help instead of trying to fight them all by yourself. Your lives are more valuable than those people from Qiangsheng Group."
As Xu Xing spoke, he bandaged him up, and during the process, he used his telekinesis to make slight adjustments to his bones. As a "veteran" who had been in the apocalypse for so many years, he was most skilled at treating these kinds of bone injuries.
Fortunately, the injury wasn't serious. It should heal completely in a few days. However, he must not exert himself during that time.
Xu Xing then gave him some more instructions.
Zhou Feng's eyes were filled with emotion. He gradually understood what made his boss different from others. Whether it was genuine or not, he remembered this kindness.
The others in the surrounding area, who were part of Xu Xing's faction, were happy to see this outcome and were more or less glad that they had made the choice they had made.
The remaining members of the Qingjing Gang, gathered around, had various expressions: some envied, some jealous, and some hateful.
After Xu Xing bandaged him up, he looked at the others and found that most of them were not seriously injured, but there were more minor cuts and bruises.
Xu Xing took out some of the most effective medicines for treating external injuries that he had found at the hospital and distributed them to them.
This scene left those in the Qingjing Gang with mixed feelings.
This is exactly the effect Xu Xing wanted.
He counted the remaining members of the Qingjing Gang and found that even including the women, there were only about eighty or ninety people left, many of whom were seriously injured.
Those with superpowers fared even worse; only two of them remained after being targeted, and both were seriously injured.
"Ahem~" Xu Xing cleared his throat, and then came the most crucial moment. In a sincere tone, he pointed to Yang Hao's corpse in the center of the hall and said:
"Your leader is lying here right now. Without sufficient strength to support him, this Buckingham will most likely be taken over by zombies or other forces soon."
As victims, your most likely outcome is that you will die here.
Therefore, I can give you a choice: choose to follow me and join my forces.
You've all heard of my headquarters to some extent; it's a villa area, or what you might call an affluent area, located a bit further from here. Our strength is evident to all, so you can be assured of our safety.
As for supplies, we have plenty; we are capable of providing you all with enough to eat.
As soon as Xu Xing finished speaking, the surrounding area erupted in chaos. The women, who were already powerless, quickly dropped their bloodstained knives and raised their hands in agreement.
For Xu Xing, women are not worth much food consumption since they don't eat many bowls of rice anyway. They can also contribute if they awaken as superhumans in the future, so it's an investment opportunity.
Seeing someone take the lead, others followed suit, after all, it was a wealthy area, and they were promised to be well-fed and safe. This might be the only chance they would have in their lifetime to live there.
Only the remaining old gang members and some shrewd and ruthless individuals seem to be observing and waiting for Xu Xing to add more conditions.
But who would have thought that Xu Xing had no intention of taking them at all? He had already absorbed too many people this time, and those who were disloyal were naturally sent back to where they came from.
At this moment, a slippery figure flashed through Xu Xing's mind: Yang Hao's father, Yang Lie. His son was dead; how could he possibly let him live a life of shame?
Xu Xing glanced at the ceiling, smiled slightly to himself, and thought, "Let him live a few more minutes."
