Chapter 385: No Room for Negotiation



"Understood, don't worry." The commander patted his pocket smugly: "The most advanced equipment, weapons and defenses are all included."

"Oh, and there's an accelerator too." The commander patted his leg again: "I'm not good at fighting, but I'm very good at running away. When it really matters, no one can run faster than me."

Shi Yin: "..."

You're quite pleased with yourself?

Never mind, as long as he's alive.

Noticing that Shion and the chief had finished their conversation and were walking over, Kitakyokawa stopped chatting with his companion. He seemed to be in a good mood, with a warm smile still on his face, but there was something wrong with his eyes.

"What?" Shi Yin had a bad feeling.

"Shiyin, we just discussed it and made a decision." Kitakami Kawai's eyes were full of anticipation: "Join our variety show."

"No." Shi Yin refused decisively, crossing her arms in front of her chest: "Don't even think about hitting me."

"No, no, no, Shi Yin misunderstood. It's just to represent the country and show up with the Consul General." Kitakyoku looked at Freya beside him: "What we really want to borrow is Freya."

This idea wasn't proposed by Kita Kiyokawa, but by the director.

Freya's appearance is absolutely outstanding; she is cute, cheerful, and likable. Her tone of voice carries an almost imperceptible coquettishness, and the director, who has been working in the entertainment industry for a long time, took a liking to Freya at first glance.

If this were before the apocalypse, the director would definitely be confident in developing Freya into a top-tier celebrity. Even now, she would still be incredibly eye-catching.

Freya readily agreed, but stipulated that she didn't want a script.

"That's possible..." Freya didn't refuse, so Tokine naturally wouldn't say anything either.

If it were just a matter of showing her face like the Consul General, it wouldn't be a problem. She was standing right next to the Consul General anyway, and she'd been photographed countless times by other reporters.

"So, what happened to the leader who signed the withdrawal agreement with him in the first place?" Shi Yin remembered this and turned to ask the general manager next to her.

"Hmm... he must be quite confident." The commander-in-chief remained silent for a moment.

It's good for a man to have some confidence, but being overconfident is another matter. Just think about the last meeting, where he was smugly talking about his directorial ideas, while the real director he invited was standing next to him with a livid face, almost shutting up, but he still had to smile and applaud.

Well, consider it a bit of fun in this apocalyptic world.

"Since it's been decided so happily, I'll treat everyone to a meal." Kita Kiyokawa was very happy. He was genuinely happy to be able to start working again, and it was an important job in the apocalypse.

"Didn't he just spend a fortune treating us to coffee and cakes?" Freya came to Shion's side and couldn't help but complain, "Is he that rich?"

Shi Yin: "He... is just simply generous..."

On the other side, Gu Changge ran a long way before stopping, hiding in an alley, and slowly sat down on the ground against the corner of the wall.

Gu Changge couldn't really describe her feelings. She felt wronged and angry, but also helpless and discouraged. She probably understood why Shi Yin hadn't given her the memories from the beginning.

Memory is also a form of experience, and having experience should make you stronger, but I feel so hopeless.

The heavy, dark red sky was an eternal night; the red moon, forever hanging in the sky, shone brighter than the white sun; endless zombies and mutated animals roamed the earth, and countless comrades died...

"What should we do?" Gu Changge squatted down, clutching his head in anguish. "Shiyin, what are you trying to do? We're already so desperate, why do you still have to sacrifice your companions for a road with no end in sight?"

"Uncle..." Gu Changge took a deep breath: "What should I do?"

"It's simple, join the new world."

The cold, electronic voice startled Gu Changge.

Gu Changge felt a chill run down his spine and instinctively jumped up and took a few steps back, only to bump into an invisible wall. When he turned around, he found that there was no one outside the alley.

No, it's not that there's no one outside this alley, but that this space is sealed off!

A person wearing a dark red cloak stood opposite him, their white jade mask particularly eerie in the dark alley.

"Arrogance!?" Gu Changge recognized the person in front of him, and his face darkened: "You've been following me."

"I'm just trying to win over my allies, don't make it sound so harsh." Arrogance stretched out his hand, and even with black gloves, his long fingers were still visible: "You raised a question, and I'm just answering it for you, it's that simple."

"Huh? Don't be ridiculous. I only lost to Shi Yin because Shi Yin's hand-to-hand combat is insane. You don't really think my superpower is weak right now, do you?" Gu Changge's golden-red phoenix pattern on his right arm was lifelike.

The so-called World Imprint is not only about power, but also about the world's recognition of one's spirit. After Gu Changge regained her memories, she understood her power, and the imprint appeared on her body.

The reason Gu Changge was called the God of War in her previous lives was because she was the only one who could support herself.

Gu Changge's fire ability is not just simple fire, but the Vermilion Bird Sacred Fire, which is impervious to water and soil, extremely hot and highly aggressive, and her enhancement ability can multiply her power several times.

"I'm just giving you a solution. Joining the new world will be good for all of you." Arrogance, wearing a mask, made his expression unreadable. "Why be fixated on human bodies? Once you join the new world, you'll definitely become advanced zombies with intelligence."

"Then the status and wealth will be yours. You can command the zombie army and make the world your army, or you can make the zombies no longer enemies of humans. As long as you join, all of this is up to you."

"If it's really that good, why don't you do it yourself? Why drag me into it?" Gu Changge scoffed, his expression disdainful. "You're like one of those self-help gurus who sell success stories. If you're so amazing, why don't you succeed yourself and bring me along?"

"Isn't it normal that I want to keep a place for you because I find you pleasing to the eye?" He chuckled arrogantly. "Shi Yin has killed so many people, do you still want to work for her? I only came to talk to you because I felt sorry for you."

"You've directly sealed off this space. Is this some kind of negotiation with me?" Gu Changge sneered, having already gathered his strength during the brief confrontation with Arrogance. "I'm afraid you haven't left me any room for negotiation!"

The lifelike golden phoenix flew out of his hand, and with the added power, it crashed hard into the space behind him.

The sealed space trembled violently, and several cracks appeared where the golden-red phoenix had struck. Moreover, a ring of flames rose around her, and several phoenixes could be vaguely seen chasing after her, protecting her within.

Seeing that the flames were hindering Ao Man's progress, Gu Changge gathered another attack and was about to smash it into the crack in space.

However, she couldn't move. Everything around her slowed down, as if it had been sped up to 0.1x. Gu Changge's thinking was normal, but her actions were like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

One foot stepped directly into the protective circle of flames. The extremely high temperature of the flames distorted the air, but it did nothing to harm the person who stepped in.

"You're right, I really didn't give you any room for negotiation."
