The end times have their own rules.
The rule here is that there are no rules; whoever is more powerful has the final say.
A promise is only valid when both sides are evenly matched in strength.
Clearly, Ji Xian was all alone and had no fighting power, so Chanx didn't take the promise seriously at all.
Ji Xian said, "I can take you to my base, but I need to meet your city lord first."
The man asked, "What do you want to see him for?"
Ji Xian said, "I need to confirm that you are his people. I can't just bring any random person to the base."
The man thought for a moment, then said, "Okay."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the people in the armored vehicle put away their Gatling guns and closed the doors.
Ji Xian walked to his car.
His car was upside down, but Ji Xian used his strength to lift and push it right up.
The people in City 1055 were all a bit dumbfounded.
What amazing strength!
Ji Xian got into the car. Even though there was no windshield, he was used to driving this car and liked driving it. He looked down on the cars driven by the thugs from Gas Town.
He started the car, and without needing anyone to lead the way, he stepped on the gas and drove towards city number 1055.
When Ji Xian arrived at the gate of city number 1055, only one car followed him. It was the same car that had been following him and had just threatened him.
The two men who were following Ji Xian were named Gangdan and Tiezhu.
As soon as Gangdan got out of the car, he raised his rifle and shouted, "Why are you driving so fast, kid? I thought you were trying to escape."
Ji Xian said coldly, "Take me to see your city lord."
"Alright."
Ji Xian got into the two's car.
Tie Zhu was driving, and Gang Dan was sitting in the back with a gun pointed at Ji Xian.
"Don't try anything funny, just behave yourself."
Ji Xian rolled his eyes at Lingling but didn't say anything.
They soon arrived at the city lord's mansion.
The two then led Ji Xian to meet the city lord, Qianx.
Chanks greeted him with a smile: "Isn't this Brother Ji Xian? Why are you back so soon after leaving?"
Asking a question you already know the answer to.
Ji Xian didn't mince words, "What do you mean by sending a squad of armored vehicles to my base?"
Chanks laughed and said, "It's a collaboration, what's wrong with bringing my men to your base to take a look? I don't allow anyone to just wander around the city like that either."
Ji Xian asked, "Is it possible to drive a convoy of armored vehicles to inspect someone else's base?"
Chanks, still smiling, said, "You're being too polite. If you want to cooperate with me, you won't even allow my people to have a look around. That's not very sincere. How can I cooperate with you like this?"
Ji Xian frowned once again.
This is blatant blaming.
So be it.
He didn't come here to reason with Chanx; he came here to discuss the rules.
The rules in a post-apocalyptic world.
This was something his younger brother had just reminded Ji Xian of.
Ji Xian was in a bad mood. These people had provoked him, and now Ji Xian was about to retaliate.
"Are you trying to cheat me?"
As Ji Xian spoke, he reached out to grab Qianx.
Chanks' pupils contracted, and he retreated sharply, his movements not much slower than Ji Xian's.
Ji Xian pushed off with his feet and chased after him.
Chanks laughed loudly: "You little brat, you dare to mess with me? I haven't stretched my muscles in a long time, today I'll show you what I'm made of!"
As he spoke, he steadied himself and blocked Ji Xian's outstretched hand.
Ji Xian's hand merely shifted slightly before reaching for Chanks' neck again.
Chanks' expression changed slightly, and he threw a punch directly at Ji Xian's face.
Ji Xian withdrew his hand and gripped Qianx's fist.
Chanks laughed, "Not bad, you actually managed a draw with me... Ah!"
Before he could finish speaking, he felt a sharp pain in his arm.
Ji Xian grabbed Chanks' fist and twisted it hard, causing Chanks to scream in pain.
What do you mean by a draw? That's because Ji Xian hadn't used his full strength yet.
"Ouch, that hurts! Stop it!" Chanks yelled.
Ji Xian remained unmoved.
Chanks's entourage, the surrounding soldiers, and even the steel egg and iron pillar that brought Ji Xian were all at a loss for what to do.
Ji Xian said coldly, "It's all thanks to your subordinates for reminding me that in this world, reasoning is useless; might makes right."
Chanks said, "Okay, okay, I understand. Now let me go!"
In the past, if the other party begged for mercy, Ji Xian would have let them go without hesitation.
But now.
Now that we've captured the city lord, how could we not ask for something?
Ji Xian said, "I can release you if you promise to lend me troops to go to City 1062."
"Okay, okay, I'll lend it to you!" Chanx agreed quickly.
Ji Xian nodded in satisfaction.
As soon as Chanks gained his freedom, he punched Ji Xian in the face.
Ji Xian was caught off guard and punched in the face, while Qianx instantly ran ten meters away.
"Grab him, alive!" Chanks shouted.
Steel Egg and Iron Pillar immediately drew their pistols and pointed them at Ji Xian. "Don't move!" "If you move again, we'll shoot!"
At the same time, several soldiers nearby also pointed their rifles at Ji Xian.
Meanwhile, infantrymen continued to rush towards the scene from afar.
Ji Xian took a deep breath, his chest burning with anger.
"You're not trustworthy, are you?"
Chanks laughed, "Are you kidding me? Using grain to borrow troops to go against the people in the fishing port? Are you stupid or am I? I only want your grain, I don't care about your grudges!"
Ji Xian coldly said, "So, you were planning to lie to me from the very beginning?"
"Yeah, so what? Compared to a fishing port, what are you?"
