Arriving at the orphanage, Helan turned his head to look at the person following behind him - Pei Hu's rat brother who was hacked to death not long ago.
"Why are you following me, Pei Bao?"
Pei Bao?
puff!
Lily wanted to laugh, but considering that the other party's brother had just died, it would be too cruel for her to laugh at the mismatch between his name and appearance. So she hid quietly behind Helan, and the villain in her heart rolled around with laughter.
"Sorry, I'll just follow you for a while." The rat man Pei Bao frowned, no longer having the wretched attitude he had when they first met.
"You should go find your brother's former subordinates." Helan looked at the other party expressionlessly.
Helan didn't trust the other party. There were fragile children behind her and she couldn't afford to let her guard down.
"My brother's gang of followers have always looked down on me. They won't accept me and will simply elect a new leader and leave."
"Feel sorry……"
Pei Bao lowered his head, his long, wet nose moving to hide the sadness in his eyes: "But I can't die now... I must find the murderer who killed my brother!"
“…”
Helan was silent for a moment, then made way for him and said, "Come in."
Although they have never gotten along, Helan knows Pei Hu's character. Although he is domineering and ferocious, he is not an inhuman beast and would not commit a tragic series of cannibalism and murders.
What's more, the orc who suddenly went crazy at the back was very suspicious.
The chaos and tragedy outside now is no less severe than when the apocalypse broke out and most people turned into zombies and killed and ate people everywhere.
Helan was a little worried. She was also a beast, a powerful beast at the top of the food chain. If she went crazy and attacked people everywhere... the consequences would be unimaginable!
"elder sister."
The white wolf He Bei walked up to her, his ears erect, staring at Pei Bao vigilantly.
"Take the children and hide." Helan whispered to his brother, "I'll guard outside."
"Okay, be careful." He Bei nodded, glared at Pei Bao, and reached out to drive the child who stuck his little head out to look outside curiously back into the inner room.
"I don't need it. Lily, just wait for your sister outside. Lily is not afraid of those bad guys." Lily immediately rejected the other party's kindness when she noticed the little white wolf looking at her, and tightly grabbed the hair on Helan's butt.
Helan gently held Lily close and looked at Pei Bao: "I just came back from downstairs and didn't see the original situation. Can you tell me the cause and effect in detail?"
Pei Bao nodded. Helan's question hit the mark. He was too weak, just an E-level Evolver, and couldn't avenge his brother on his own.
He sorted out his thoughts and recalled:
"We just came back from hunting today. We found a really big crocodile and we were in a good mood. We were planning to go to the Black Tail Bar for a drink.
On the way to the bar, my brother was suddenly pricked by something. He screamed and froze for several minutes. ... When he looked up again, his expression had become strange and terrifying.
Thinking back to his brother's appearance with his hair standing on end, fierce eyes, bared teeth, and drooling, Pei Bao's body trembled slightly.
He took a deep breath and continued, "My brother turned his head to look at me, then turned around and bit off the passerby's hand. Before we could react, the Great Sage Gang's mandrill suddenly leaped up and split my brother...split my brother in half..."
Pei Bao's voice choked with sobs, his eyes filled with hatred: "Those bastards kept talking about Brother Tiger when my brother was still alive, but as soon as my brother died, they picked up the money from my brother and ran away! Damn it!"
“…”
Helan sighed. Pei Hu probably didn't expect that after his death, his sworn brothers who had lived and died together would abandon him in the blink of an eye. Instead, his own brother, whom he usually looked down upon, still remembered him and wanted to avenge him.
"This is a conspiracy!" Pei Bao's face was gloomy, his thoughts were in a mess, but because of his familiarity with his brother, Pei Bao firmly believed that this was a murder plot against his brother Pei Hu: "It was the mandrill! He killed my brother!"
Pei Hu's team was a significant force within the Shanhai City base, and Pei Hu genuinely despised the base's management's cowardice and laziness, frequently challenging them. He had every reason to believe his brother Pei Hu's abnormality was closely related to the Shanhai City base.
"That's pretty close. The commotion outside is most likely related to a cult called the Star King's Secret Church inside the base."
A slightly unfamiliar voice suddenly came from the side.
Everyone looked up and saw Shen Lanzhou, dressed in a black robe, sitting high on the beam, his sheep's hooves swinging leisurely. "As indigenous people, you should know about this cult, right? The god they worship is just called... Yang Bodhisattva?"
Helan nodded: "I have heard of it.
The Secret Church of the Star King existed before the outbreak of the apocalypse. The god they worship is a foreign evil god. It is said that the god has been sleeping in the deep sea and will destroy the world once he wakes up.
Only by believing in their God can one have a chance to survive when the world is destroyed.
But the authorities were very strict and nothing happened.
Later, the end of the world broke out, and disasters, famine, and chaos became breeding grounds for cult organizations.
The Secret Society of the Star King took the opportunity to declare that the outbreak of the apocalypse was a sign that their god was about to awaken.
As a result, the scale of this cult exploded and became so widespread among the lower ranks of the base that even the top brass inside the base couldn't control them.
Finally, Miss Brown Bear uttered a disdainful voice: "In times of disaster, only unity and self-reliance can lead to survival. Placing hope in an illusory god is truly foolish and ridiculous!"
