Chapter 383 The Bait Takes the Hook
However, just as tensions were running high, Han Shuo's cold laugh reached Sun Feng's ears.
"hehe."
"Go ahead and kill them, what do I care about these people?"
"But I must warn you, the moment you killed the first hostage, you sealed your fate today."
As soon as the words fell, Sun Feng froze on the spot.
"What's wrong with this person? Doesn't he care about these hostages at all?"
At this point, the fat man and the others also joined in with a few sarcastic remarks.
"Hahahaha! That's hilarious! You little brat, you don't actually think we care about these hostages, do you?"
"That's right, Fatty is right. We haven't even lived enough ourselves, how can we have the mind to care about others?"
...
The fat man and his group worked together seamlessly to create a lively atmosphere, and even Li Shurou chimed in with her own comment.
"You're incredibly foolish to threaten us with other people's lives."
Although she was very worried about the lives of Dr. Lin and the others, she easily controlled her emotions at this moment.
Having followed Han Shuo for so long, if she still hasn't learned this much composure, then she's lived in vain...
Finally, Cheng Shenghong delivered the final blow.
"Heh heh, you should know that we outnumber you by more than ten times. If you want to die, go ahead and kill!"
After saying that, Sun Feng's eyes widened, and he didn't know what to say for a long time.
He felt that this group of people was very strange.
The other party suddenly acted unpredictably, leaving him somewhat bewildered.
The next moment, Qingyu, her face flushed, roared again.
"Sun Feng! I'm telling you this now: if one of the hostages dies, I will destroy you!"
"Our original agreement stipulated that you couldn't kill a single person. If you dare to break it, I dare to break it!"
...
The rhetoric used by Han Shuo and the others had naturally been planned in advance.
They dared to say this because they were certain that Sun Feng wouldn't dare to kill the hostage.
The reason he now has the support of former senior insiders and ordinary survivors is because of this.
One of the reasons is that he has not killed anyone here during this period of time.
If he takes action today, then all the efforts he has accumulated in the past will have been in vain.
The survivors here can tolerate Sun Feng's rise to power through illegitimate means, but they absolutely cannot tolerate his unbridled slaughter of innocent people.
Because this would make those below feel uneasy.
Of course, there is another point, which is that his own martial strength is indeed far inferior to Qingyu's.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been stuck in this stalemate until now...
...
At this moment, Sun Feng's face grew increasingly gloomy.
To be honest, he really didn't dare to kill the hostages; his actions just now were merely meant to scare Han Shuo and the others.
He hadn't expected that the other party seemed genuinely unmoved by this and didn't seem to care about the lives of these hostages.
Qingyu's extreme behavior today did indeed somewhat intimidate him.
He also knew that Qingyu did indeed have the strength to annihilate his group, after all, almost all of the guards were on the other side.
Neither side took action, partly to avoid making the situation too ugly.
To put it bluntly, regardless of who becomes the true leader here, the group of researchers is someone we cannot abandon.
...
After a moment of silence, Sun Feng frowned, but finally waved to his men behind him, signaling them to send the hostages back to the bus.
He still didn't dare to completely break ties with Qingyu at this moment.
After all, no one who is alive today doesn't cherish their own life.
Especially him, who knew that once he reached level 5 evolution, the situation here would be reversed.
Now, he no longer needs to fight Qingyu to the death over this matter!
...
However, having suffered a setback at the hands of Han Shuo and his group today, Sun Feng was clearly in a very bad mood.
"Hmph! Fine! Fine! Fine!"
"I'll remember you all. I hope you can keep smiling from now on!"
He uttered a harsh remark with a cold face, then turned and led his men back to the bus.
...
This time, through his first formal contact with Han Shuo and others, Sun Feng also understood one thing.
Although these newcomers are on Qingyu's side, they are clearly not entirely subservient to Qingyu; they have their own opinions.
This can be seen from the fact that the other party was a free agent in the underground research institute before, and that they want to break away from the main force tomorrow.
It's highly unlikely that someone like that, relying on hostages like Dr. Lin, would be able to directly obtain the turbid liquid.
After calming down, Sun Feng also reflected deeply on himself.
He knew that he had been too reckless today. After learning that Han Shuo had the last of the turbid liquid he needed, he shouldn't have impulsively brought people over to coerce him.
After all, he didn't really understand the temperaments and personalities of these newcomers.
Of course, he can't be entirely blamed for this.
After all, if he succeeds this time, he can immediately become a genetically evolved Level 5 human.
If all goes well, he will be able to replace Qingyu today and take over the position of the rightful commander.
When power is within reach, or even imminent, very few people can control themselves...
...
"Damn it, these kids are so troublesome!"
Sun Feng cursed inwardly and, with a grim expression, ordered his men to restart the bus.
As the bus was about to leave, he turned and glared angrily at Han Shuo and the others outside the window.
Although he was much calmer at this moment, it was undeniable that Han Shuo and the others' actions today had sown the seeds of resentment in his heart.
For the past two weeks, he has maintained the initiative in every confrontation with Qingyu.
Unexpectedly, today, I was outmaneuvered by these young punks.
How could he possibly tolerate this?
In Sun Feng's eyes, Han Shuo and his group had already been sentenced to death.
At that moment, he suddenly remembered something:
The newcomers plan to leave the main group tomorrow.
With this in mind, a new plan had already formed in his mind.
Inside the camp, Qingyu dared not attack him, and he dared not rashly attack Han Shuo and the others.
However, things are different in the wild.
Without needing to be on guard against Qingyu and the others, he could easily wipe out that bunch of small fry.
However, the next moment, Sun Feng's brows furrowed again.
He feared that his reckless behavior today would deter Han Shuo and the others from leaving as originally planned.
If this group really decides to stay here and refuse to leave, I'll be quite helpless in the short term...
"Damn it, I'm so angry!"
He grew angrier the more he thought about it, and slapped his forehead as if he had a headache.
And just like that, the two buses quickly disappeared behind the crowd.
