It seems that Shion and the leader have been gone for a long time. All the other condolence teams have returned, but there is still no news of their return.
"Alright, that's all the profit. I only took 30% of the profits this time, no less." Guan Nianshan took out a ledger and ticked it off: "After the blizzard, there are already too few exiles who can survive outside. I've already taught you the most."
On the table in front of him was a large box containing a mixture of purple and blue crystal cores.
These things are not very valuable now. People have discovered that ordinary zombies have become stronger and can even use some extra abilities similar to superpowers. Even ordinary zombies can have blue and cyan crystal cores.
Of course, ordinary zombies have more abilities, and they are also more dangerous.
The Berserkers and other special zombies have higher-level crystal cores. The number of cyan crystal cores has gradually increased, and several green crystal cores have also been found.
"Yes, I will report this to you truthfully, Miss." Nan Zhu carefully wrote down the account book and had someone take the crystal cores away to be counted: "Thank you for your continued contributions to the country."
"Alright, enough of this nonsense." Guan Nianshan's lips twitched; he was wary of such polite words.
“No, I mean it sincerely. The country has always faced a shortage of energy, and Mr. Guan has solved many problems.” Nan Zhu said gently, “I suppose you are very important to Miss.”
"Of course." Guan Nianshan was never modest; he waved his hand and walked out.
He was exhausted from carrying several large boxes when he arrived. Now that the dangers outside have increased and the entire team of superhumans has gone out, none of them have the space to come and meet him.
However, as soon as Guan Nianshan stepped out the door, he sensed that something was wrong.
It was so quiet around us, there wasn't even the sound of leaves or insects, which was obviously abnormal for the time of day.
Guan Nianshan wanted to go back to the Doomsday Beacon, since Shi Yin had said that the Doomsday Beacon was definitely the safest place, but Guan Nianshan found that he couldn't get in at all.
So, he fell into the trap because he came out? This person was obviously much more capable than him, and Guan Nianshan dared not make any rash moves. The price of his ability was too high; he could easily kill himself.
"This...hero? I have no money, no supplies, no crystal cores right now. Robbing me isn't a good idea." Guan Nianshan's expression changed incredibly quickly: "If you want something, how about I go home and get you some? That way you won't leave empty-handed next time."
"Guan Nianshan, it's a waste of your talent to remain in the old world looking like this. You're perfectly suited for the new world." A person draped in a red cloak appeared before Guan Nianshan, their white jade mask looking somewhat eerie: "Let me introduce you, Pride..."
"Arrogant? You really are arrogant!" Guan Nianshan clutched his chest, looking pained. "No way, no way, you're ordering me around the first time we meet? That's not right!"
arrogant:"……"
He hadn't finished speaking yet.
Never mind the name, it doesn't matter. That's not important now. Calling it by its title is enough.
“You are a promising talent, Guan Nianshan. I now extend an invitation to you, hoping you will join the New World.” Arrogance stretched out his hand; although his fingers were gloved, their long, slender shape was still evident.
Guan Nianshan narrowed his eyes slightly. The guy in front of him was wearing a voice changer, so he couldn't tell if he was male or female, but the way he reached out his hand... if he wasn't effeminate, then he was a woman.
It's impossible that Pride, one of the seven deadly sins, is a sissy, right?
"Huh? Me?" Guan Nianshan pointed to himself, trying to stall for time: "I'm super weak, you know."
"That's why I'm saying this, because you stayed in the old world. I know how you can become stronger." He said arrogantly, "I can give you the money, wealth, and status you want, and I can even cure your sister's illness and grant you and your sister immortality."
"Wow, you're such a villain!" Guan Nianshan exclaimed in amazement. "I knew it! Kids these days are ruined by games and cartoons!"
arrogant:"……"
Seeing that the other party did not react, Guan Nianshan was about to say something more when he suddenly felt the ground in the silent space shake. He quickly shouted "Fly!" and flew into the air.
Sure enough, the moment Guan Nianshan flew into the air, the ground where he was standing suddenly collapsed, the entrance to the cave was pitch black and the end could not be seen, as if it connected to the eighteenth level of hell.
"Ouch, that hurts!" Guan Nianshan shook his left hand. This time, he didn't have any cuts on his body, but his left hand was numb and painful, which was quite uncomfortable.
"Hmph, now that you see your current situation, I could crush you with one hand." Although I couldn't see what this self-proclaimed arrogant person looked like, I could tell from his tone that he seemed to be angry.
"Oh, oh, I was just joking. You're not furious, so why are you so easily angered?" Guan Nianshan, still shaken, didn't stop his verbal sparring: "Besides, you came to me out of nowhere without asking if I wanted to or not, and then you threatened and ordered me around. Shouldn't you show me a little respect?"
"Ha, I don't respect you, but she does? Your good lady Shi Yin abandoned your brother, and you still risk your life for her?" He mocked arrogantly, "She orchestrated your meeting and his death, and you're protecting her."
"Hey, what's it to you?" Guan Nianshan covered his ears, shaking his head like a rattle-drum. "I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear it! Anyone saying bad things about us is just trying to undermine morale! Ah~ my head hurts so much~ I can't hear you~"
arrogant:"……"
This guy!
When he was a teammate, I felt this guy was annoying; now that he's not a teammate, I want to kill him as soon as possible.
"Guan Nianshan, you're so smart, you know the truth best, don't you?" The arrogant voice was cold: "In the past cycle of reincarnation, you angrily stabbed...her chest with a knife, what are you pretending for now?"
"I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear it! I don't want to hear it!" Guan Nianshan dramatically covered his ears, "Ah~ I'm deaf~"
"Is that so? Even if your brother's death was ineffective, even if your sister Shiyin didn't find a good doctor to treat her, you still won't listen?" He sneered arrogantly, "There's a limit to lying to yourself. You're the kind of selfish person who cares most about your family. She's messing with what you care about most, and you still won't listen to that?"
"Hey, what do you mean?" Guan Nianshan finally stopped: "Stop slandering Shi Yin. My sister was transferred to the best sanatorium. The facilities and care there are top-notch."
"Let me make this clear first, don't think I'm oblivious to what's going on. I monitor my sister's room in real time, so there's no way anyone would disobey me." Guan Nianshan finally stopped his abstract explanation: "And Song Yunshan, he died trying to save me. I didn't react in time and didn't push him away. What does Guan Shiyin have to do with it?"
"Heh, then you should know what happened to Ye Yuansong, right? You're so smart that you could guess that Shi Yin did it on purpose, not only because Ye Yuansong was willing, but also to provoke Ye Shaoheng and obtain the mark of sacrifice, right?"
