Chapter 239 Energy Dilemma: Base Development Encounters Obstacles



"Bang!"

With one punch, the thug was knocked out before he could react. He fell heavily to the ground and fainted.

"What?!" exclaimed Dou, a building materials merchant.

The other thugs were also shocked by Mou Xuan's speed. They raised their weapons and attacked Mou Xuan.

However, Mou Xuan was like a tiger among a flock of sheep, moving freely among the crowd. Every time he attacked, a thug fell down.

"ah!"

“Ouch!”

Screams rang out one after another. Those thugs were no match for Mou Xuan at all. They were beaten black and blue and fell to the ground wailing.

Defense engineer Xiao, who was standing nearby, was stunned. He could hardly believe his eyes.

“This…this is too amazing!”

In just a few minutes, all the thugs brought by Dou the building materials merchant were knocked to the ground by Mou Xuan, and none of them could stand up.

Dou, the building materials businessman, was completely dumbfounded. He never expected that Mou Xuan was so powerful.

Mou Xuan clapped his hands, walked up to Dou, the building materials merchant, looked down at him, and said coldly: "Boss Dou, do you still think you can threaten me now?"

Dou, the building materials merchant, was so frightened that he was shaking all over. He stammered, "You...you don't mess around! I...I have a backer!"

"Backers? Do you think I'm afraid of your backers?" Mou Xuan sneered, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, "Let me tell you, even if the king of heaven comes, he can't save you!"

He grabbed the collar of Dou, the building materials merchant, and lifted him up, saying viciously: "Now, restore the energy supply to me immediately, otherwise, I will make you regret coming into this world!"

Dou, the building materials merchant, was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body. He quickly said, "Don't...don't be impulsive! I...I will recover, I will recover immediately!"

Mou Xuan then let go of his hand and threw him to the ground.

Dou, the building materials merchant, quickly took out his communicator, dialed a number, and said tremblingly, "Quick... Quickly restore the energy supply, quick!"

After hanging up the communicator, he raised his head and looked at Mou Xuan.

"Mou...Mou Xuan, I...I have restored my energy supply. Can you...can you let me go?"

Mou Xuan looked at him coldly without saying anything, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a playful smile.

"Boss Dou, do you think I'm too easy to talk to?" Mou Xuan's words seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. Every word was filled with ice, making Dou, the building materials merchant, shiver all over.

Boss Dou's heart skipped a beat and he secretly said something was wrong, but he managed to force a smile that was uglier than crying: "Mou... Brother Mou, what... what do you mean by this? Let's talk it out nicely. Harmony brings wealth, harmony brings wealth..."

Mou Xuan snorted coldly, and that sound, like the cold wind blowing from Siberia, directly extinguished the little flame in Boss Dou's heart.

He slowly squatted down, tapped Boss Dou's face, which was distorted by fear, with his fingers, and said word by word: "Boss Dou, do you really think I'm the kind of 'good guy' who will smile and greet others when being bullied? Huh?"

The last word "hmm" had a slightly rising ending tone, carrying an indescribable sense of danger, which scared Boss Dou so much that he almost wet his pants.

He waved his hands quickly and stammered, "No... No, Brother Mou, you misunderstood, I... I just..."

"You just want to take advantage of the situation and extort money, right?" Mou Xuan interrupted him directly, his tone so cold that it seemed that he could freeze people into ice sculptures. "Do you really think that in this apocalypse, whoever has the biggest fist is the boss? Do you really think that you can cover the sky with one hand and monopolize everything?"

Boss Dou was overwhelmed by Mou Xuan's momentum. He opened his mouth but could not say anything.

Mou Xuan slowly stood up and looked down at him. It was a game of... fair competition."

"Fair... fair competition?" Boss Dou felt his tongue was tied. He could not keep up with Mou Xuan's train of thought at all.

"That's right." Mou Xuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, "I'll give you a chance, and also give myself a chance. I will look for new sources of energy. If I succeed, you must stop your monopoly on energy. We will compete fairly and rely on our own abilities. What do you think? Do you dare to play?"

Boss Dou was stunned. He never expected that Mou Xuan would put forward such conditions.

In his opinion, this was simply a fantasy!

In this resource-scarce wasteland, energy is the lifeline. Whoever controls the energy controls everything.

The reason why he can be so arrogant and domineering is that he monopolizes the energy supply in this area.

Now, Mou Xuan actually wants to break this monopoly, which is simply a foolish dream!

"What, you don't dare?" Mou Xuan raised his eyebrows, with a hint of provocation in his tone.

Boss Dou was aroused by Mou Xuan's fierceness. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! I bet with you! I don't believe that you can find new energy! If you lose, you have to hand over your base with both hands and leave this area forever!"

"It's a deal." Mou Xuan stretched out his hand and high-fived Boss Dou as an oath.

"But..." Boss Dou suddenly remembered something and added, "You can't use your... that time ability to cheat!"

Mou Xuan smiled contemptuously: "Don't worry, I don't even bother to use that kind of means. I will find a new energy source in an open and aboveboard manner, and make you admit defeat with all your heart!"

Thus, a game about energy began.
