Chapter 146: Madness
Sun Ming raised his head and laughed, "City Lord He, you are still so naive. If we kill you, everything you said will be ours, and we will get more than you gave us."
He Ange's lips trembled. He looked around and found that he was surrounded by demons.
If he were given another chance, he would definitely not ask Sun Ming for so many tempering fruits, nor would he believe their lies and follow him out.
But he didn't know that Sun Ming had made up his mind to kill him from the very beginning. Even if he didn't leave the city today, he would find other opportunities.
"I should have kicked your team out right away..."
He should have done so at that time, and he would not have fallen to this point. The act of murder should have been curbed from the moment it happened.
Before he died, he used his last moments to send an email.
The people surrounding him rushed forward and tried to kill He Ange, thinking that if the final blow was theirs, then all the city lord's supplies would be theirs.
Sun Ming stood there motionless, with the other members of the Red Wolf Team standing beside him.
He Ange died and turned into a point of light, just like the wild monsters they killed.
Just under this spot of light, a large amount of supplies appeared out of thin air. There were so many and so many things, including food, equipment, and props, that they dazzled the eyes of everyone present.
Sun Ming and the others only paid attention to the few spots of light floating in the air.
Those light spots look so familiar. They were the light spots they saw at the beginning of the apocalypse. There were many of them then.
Seeing a hand trying to grab the light spots, the members of the Red Wolf Team shot an arrow quickly and efficiently.
Sun Ming's cold voice rang in the ears of these people: "Those are ours, just take what's on the ground."
But at this time these people were already blood-thirsty, and no one would listen to him. If they could kill He Ange, they could turn their knives on the so-called captain of the Red Wolf Squad.
The man who was shot in the hand had a distorted expression. He turned to look at Sun Ming and the others. "Do you really think you are so awesome, Sun Ming?" He stared at them with a strange look. "I wonder what good stuff I can get from killing you."
This was beyond Sun Ming and the others' expectations. "Are you really going to do this? You know, our team was previously recognized as the strongest in the city."
The man seemed to have heard a huge joke. "No matter how strong you are, are you stronger than He Ange? He also has a group of powerful NPCs. But now, isn't it better to be dead?"
Sun Ming frowned. He didn't expect that the people he was working with would have the guts to turn around and deal with them.
"Since you are so stubborn, let's see who can survive to the end."
It was another melee, but while they were fighting, there were other eyes coveting the points of light floating in the air.
The deputy captain has already received the person. He protected his family behind him and stared at the surroundings nervously. He didn't care about the things that were revealed. Now the place was in chaos, even though He Ange was dead.
[System prompt: The Lord of Longjiao City has passed away, and the city-building order has been transferred to the designated heir. Since the heir refuses to inherit, the city-state will dissipate within 60 seconds.]
All the residents of the city-state received this email. They didn’t expect that the city-building order could be given to a designated person even after the city lord died.
The vice-captain said to his teammates, "I'm going to Xuantian City in Jinjiang District. You guys can leave immediately wherever you want to go."
In the end, the group of people did not move. "We plan to go there too. City Lord Yao and City Lord Li both went there after disbanding the city-state. We believe we can live a stable life there."
The deputy captain nodded, looked up and counted the number of people, but found that Wei Guan was gone, "Where is Wei Guan?"
Others also noticed that Wei Guan had disappeared. "I don't know. He was right next to me just now."
At this time, Wei Guan was watching not far from the center of the melee. The residents outside the city all rushed out. The city was about to disintegrate, and they had to run away quickly.
As soon as I came out, I saw mountains of supplies.
Professional residents were fighting, and ordinary residents pounced on the mountains of supplies like wild beasts.
The light spot that was floating in the air had long since disappeared, and no one knew who had secretly stolen this most valuable thing in the chaos.
“That’s enough!”
On this empty snowy plain, the sound of someone roaring reached everyone's ears.
The person who shouted this was Wei Guan. His face was full of disgust at the scene before him. Everyone seemed to come to their senses and stared at him blankly.
His tone was calm, and he looked at these people with a firm gaze. "That's enough. Stop killing. Get enough supplies for the winter and leave."
Sun Ming was beaten to the point where only a little blood was left. If Wei Guan had not shouted, the man would have probably dealt him the final blow. While the other party was stunned, he quickly drank the potion to replenish his energy and blood.
He didn't care about the equipment anymore. He was very close to death just now and finally realized that life was their most important resource.
These words seemed to have a magical power, causing the people who were still fighting to stop what they were doing, scatter like birds and beasts, and quickly run away after taking what they wanted.
Wei Guan turned around and returned to the deputy captain and his teammates, and his teammates just patted him on the shoulder.
The deputy captain had a thousand thoughts in his mind. He thought that the city-state would eventually cease to exist, but he didn't expect it to be disbanded in this way.

Yao Bing'an told everyone in the room about this, and no one said a word after listening.
Lu Jiu never thought that killing players would drop all their equipment. It seemed that You Xiaoyu and the others had lied to him before. He was probably afraid that they would kill them if they knew the result.
Finally, it was Li Aoting who spoke up. "I've heard before that someone killed a player, but the result wasn't what was reported back then. It turns out those people also knew how terrifying such a fact was."
"Those who joined the siege, I really don't know where they will end up. These are potential time bombs."
"Will anyone else tell this? Damn, I suddenly feel like I should not only pay attention to wild monsters in the future, but also be on guard against other people."
What worries Lu Jiu is that if a city lord is killed and so many supplies are dropped, then if someone knows about this later, many real-name city lords will be in danger.
At this moment, they have no way of using the law to punish the murderer. Even if they drive him out, there is no telling whether these people will gather together and specialize in killing players in the future.
It’s not hard to imagine that they’ll have to deal with people like this themselves in the future.
Lu Jiu looked at her hands. She had never thought about killing someone.
I have lived in a peaceful society for twenty years and have never thought about committing a crime, let alone killing people. Even if killing people in the game world is not as bloody as before the end of the world, it can easily magnify the evil in people's hearts.
"They are indeed time bombs and must be eliminated, but how can we overcome the psychological barriers to killing them?" This question made everyone in the room start thinking.
Shen Jufeng's cold voice echoed in the empty room: "They have committed a crime and deserve to die."
His eyes were firm, unlike their hesitation. He continued, "As the ancients said, a life for a life is a life. This is only natural. Since there is no law now, let's use the most ancient way."
