"So that's how it is. I just wonder how many of those who boarded the ship are your relatives? I'll return their gold to you."
The eldest brother laughed and said that he had simply oversimplified the situation.
"all!"
Ye Lei only said two words.
"Brother, you're kidding, how could that be?"
"I say it is, so it is. Don't you understand by now?"
"So you wanted the two clams to fight so the fisherman could profit!"
The eldest brother finally understood.
"Brothers, did you hear that? This guy is here to cause trouble. He wants to steal the gold we've worked so hard to accumulate. Are you okay with that?"
"No!"
"Without gold, we can't buy food. What's the difference between that and us dying? Are you willing to accept that?"
"No!"
"Let's give it a shot, what if we win? Charge!"
"rush"
This time, the leader stopped retreating and charged forward.
Ye Lei's Ice Roar cooldown had expired, and he activated his Ice Roar ability again, turning the remaining eight people into ice sculptures once more.
He spared only the eldest brother and the burly man; he wouldn't let them die easily.
"Tell me, where is the gold kept?"
Ye Lei placed his lightsaber against the boss's neck.
"It's...it's inside."
The eldest brother, seeing the lightsaber emitting light, was so frightened that he stammered.
"Come on, take me inside."
"Okay, brother, no, hero, go easy on him, it wouldn't be good if you accidentally hurt him."
The leader's title changed, and he led the way inside, taking out gold from a box.
"Here you go, hero, it's all yours."
Ye Lei took the gold and tested its weight; it weighed several kilograms. He smiled slightly and put it into his spatial storage.
"Hero, where's the gold? Where's the gold?"
The eldest brother stared wide-eyed at the gold that had vanished into thin air.
Do you really want to know?
Ye Lei moved the lightsaber closer to his neck.
"I don't want to know, I don't want to know, can you let me go now?"
"I can let you go, but I don't know if the people on the ship will let you go."
Ye Lei had already made up his mind.
"Hero, please! You can't hand me over to them! I'm begging you!"
The eldest brother was so scared he almost knelt down.
"Stand still, don't kneel down like a grown man."
Ye Lei couldn't stand seeing men kneeling.
"Alright, alright, sir, spare my life! I'll never lie again!"
"Stop talking nonsense. I've already told you, I've let you go. You should save your energy to explain to the people on the ship!"
"No! I can't go! If I go, they'll throw me into the sea and feed the sharks!"
"That's none of my business, let's go!"
Ye Lei forced the boss to leave the room. By this time, the scene outside had been cleared away by the bloodthirsty bats, leaving only the boss and the burly man.
He released the leader, who mistakenly thought Ye Lei had really let him go and ran away, only to be caught by the bloodthirsty bats that swooped down.
Finally, each claw grabbed one of them, and the bloodthirsty bats flew toward the ship in Yunfan Harbor.
Ye Lei knew that at this moment, the survivors on the ship must be going crazy, realizing they had been deceived, and searching everywhere for each other.
Ye Lei began searching, convinced that with so many people living here, there must be a lot of supplies.
As expected, all four rooms were piled high with various ingredients, the source of which was unknown.
Since that's the case, in the apocalypse, waste is truly shameful, so he accepted it all without hesitation.
Then, he took Chen Xueer out the back door, drove the Mercedes SUV, and sped towards the shelter.
He knew perfectly well that the task entrusted to the bloodthirsty bats would be foolproof.
Sure enough, half an hour later, the system's voice came to my mind.
[Congratulations, host! You have completed the routine mission of eliminating criminals and have earned 5000 points.]
Upon hearing this, Ye Lei's lips curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile.
He could almost see with his own eyes the miserable scene of those two being scorned and whipped. Perhaps in the end they really would be mercilessly thrown into the sea and become food for sharks!
This haul was incredibly fruitful. Not only did they collect a huge amount of gold, which would definitely be very useful for Tang Xiaoting to make weapons, but they also stockpiled a large quantity of ingredients and earned a generous amount of points.
Most importantly, it eradicated a major social scourge, doing a great and meritorious deed for the survivors struggling in the apocalypse.
When he drove back to the shelter, the bloodthirsty bats had also returned.
However, he saw it from the bottom of the mountain: a large crowd had gathered outside the shelter. Yes, they were survivors, not zombies.
"Who are these arrogant fools causing trouble again?"
Ye Lei muttered something, stepped on the gas, and sped up the mountain.
"He's here."
"He's back."
"Make way for me."
…………
It turned out to be classmates from Tomato University. When they saw Ye Lei's Mercedes SUV, they knew that the owner of the shelter had returned, and they all made way for him.
Ye Lei immediately understood; it was probably Zhou Binhui who had instigated these classmates to cause trouble again. It seemed the lesson he had learned last time wasn't enough.
He drove the car to the entrance of the shelter.
It really is that coward Zhou Binhui. But who's the person next to him? They look so familiar.
When Ye Lei parked the car and got out, Zhou Binhui also saw him.
"Ye Lei, you're finally back. It's so hot, and you've kept us waiting for so long."
Zhou Binhui wiped the sweat from his face and said.
"What are you trying to do now?"
Ye Lei frowned. It was like a fly; he couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard he tried.
Look who this is!
The person next to Zhou Binhui turned around.
"Principal Ma, what brings you here?"
It turns out he's the president of Tomato University; no wonder he looked so familiar.
"You're Ye Lei, aren't you?"
Principal Ma adopted his usual dignified demeanor.
"Yes, I am Ye Lei."
He needed to be cautious until he figured out what the other party was up to, after all, this was his territory.
"I watched the videos of my classmates. It's the apocalypse now. What's wrong with letting them go inside and hide?"
Ye Lei finally understood that this was definitely Zhou Binhui's ridiculous idea, and he had no choice but to bring up Principal Ma.
“Principal Ma, I think you’ve seen the news on TV. The military has already built shelters. Why don’t you let the students go there? Besides, they’re under military protection there, so wouldn’t it be safer?”
Ye Lei didn't care about any of that and directly asked back.
"Well... I've tried to persuade them, but they won't go, so there's nothing I can do!"
Principal Ma was speechless.
"That settles it then. If they don't want to go, why do they insist on coming here?"
Ye Lei gave Principal Ma no chance to breathe.
