Chapter 1418

~7 min read 1,210 words

In Ruobei City, inside a three-story building, several contractors stared in shock as the Ruobei Embrace gradually collapsed.

"As for... doing it to this extent, what's the point?"

"There's no logic with a madman—either hand over the World Core or fight them to the death; this is just a greeting."

"Bluffing."

"Look, look over there..."

A female contractor's mouth twitched as she saw a swarm of insects, dense and thick, covering half the city's buildings.

In less than half an hour, Ruobei City no longer had peace and tranquility; in the Apocalypse Paradise plan, they were to fight the Reincarnation Paradise side in urban warfare, but judging by the current situation, some lunatics from the Reincarnation Paradise side seemed intent on flattening the city.

Even more surprising to the Apocalypse Paradise contractors was that a contractor of status within the Sisibaning zf received news that the zf actually intended to evacuate civilians from Ruobei City.

Ruobei City was under attack, and the first thought of Sisibaning's high-ranking officials was not retaliation, but evacuating ordinary civilians—a choice made out of helplessness.

Qingying gave them two options: evacuate all civilians from Ruobei City, or have the capital bombed with lethal toxic gas shells—pick one.

Initially, Sisibaning's high-ranking officials found Qingying laughable, until an undetonated lethal toxic gas shell fell into Sisibaning's capital.

Qingying negotiated with Sisibaning's high-ranking officials in a slightly smiling tone, saying: "We're not devils; give you five minutes to consider. After five minutes, Sisibaning's capital will be struck by over a hundred toxic gas shells."

The toxic gas shell planted on the Sisibaning zf building was no joke; Sisibaning's high-ranking officials compromised, for their own lives and those of their families.

Boom—

The Ruobei Embrace collapsed, large sections of buildings crumbled, and dust surged tens of meters high.

City center.

Thud, thud, thud...

A machine like a pile driver operated at high speed, emitting pulses; civilians hit by these pulses would instinctively flee the affected area.

Several civilian corpses were pinned under building debris, and a man in a suit, covering his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, sat atop the rubble.

"Boss, almost done."

The Ghost Lady's lips curled; her black-lipsticked thin lips gave off a cold feeling as the shockwave swept over, blowing her hair upward.

"Well, try to avoid harming civilians—still, we're not devils, and we've already reached an agreement with Sisibaning's zf."

As Qingying spoke, debris flew from a nearby building; a man covered in dust, dressed like a people's teacher, stood up, shielding two children in his arms.

"You're actually saving people? How reassuring—by the way, tell you this: what you're doing now counts as good."

Qingying coughed dryly a few times, making people wonder if he had a glass-shard physique.

"I can't comprehend good and evil—I just want to do this."

The people's teacher ignored the two children frightened away by the shockwave; this guy almost lacks a moral compass, doing only what he wants—sometimes he saves people, but sometimes his actions even make the Old Yinbi Qingying feel chilled.

Actually, the most terrifying thing isn't Old Yinbi, but this people's teacher-type personality; his attire isn't Old Yinbi, but rather as strong as a monster—clearly, the people's teacher belongs to the latter, and even his teammate, the Ghost Lady of the Huangchuan Adventure Team, dares not defy him.

"Have you found that guy yet?"

Qingying spoke; the people's teacher shook his head.

"He got away, but we can confirm he's still in the city; he used some method to mask the World Core's fluctuations—trackable at long range, but the unique fluctuation vanishes upon entering a ten-kilometer radius."

The people's teacher spoke in a tone nearly devoid of emotional fluctuation.

"That guy is a space system user—achieving this isn't strange."

Qingying crossed his hands, beginning to think.

"Boss, what about the others from Apocalypse Paradise? They're also fourth-tier contractors; if careless, they might capsize in a gutter."

"Careless?"

Qingying looked at the Ghost Lady doubtfully.

"You feel that what Solomon did earlier was like probing Apocalypse Paradise people?"

"Solomon certainly wouldn't—he's a Magic Grandfather, and he gives his all against any enemy."

The Ghost Lady curled her lips; speaking from the heart, she admitted she somewhat admired Solomon this Magic Grandfather—unpretentious, giving his all against any foe.

"Then do you feel that Gulu, Citrus Sister, Bai Ye, and Shui Xiao, who rushed here as fast as possible, have any carelessness?"

"Eh~ that's not the case—just being cautious."

"This is our advantage: though not united, these people crawled out of piles of corpses; greenhouse flowers may be gorgeous, but they can't understand our thinking—can't win, only die; so, let's greet the Apocalypse Paradise friends again."

Qingying took out a pocket watch—this was the 'Honor' he received when awarded in the Sun Kingdom.

"Time's about up—increase the frequency."

"Boss, might accidentally injure our own."

The Ghost Lady said this with her mouth, but in reality, she had already begun adjusting that machine resembling a pile driver.

"Those who would be accidentally injured don't count as our own."

As Qingying's words fell, a shockwave surged; the shock-dampening device in his ear activated.

Thud! The shockwave expanded.

Cracks appeared on over one-third of Ruobei City's buildings; this shockwave will continue for 30 more instances.

The entire Ruobei City trembled; the beach area at the city's edge saw sand suddenly jump up, then slowly fall, spreading ripples across the sea surface, with huge waves rolling backward into the ocean.

Qingying isn't trying to destroy buildings—this guy wants to trigger a tsunami to fundamentally eliminate the possibility of Sisibaning military reinforcements.

If Apocalypse Paradise contractors were mixed among civilians, finding them wouldn't be easy; moreover, some have long operated in Ruobei City, holding certain status, and could use local forces against the Reincarnation Paradise side.

However, the Reincarnation Paradise side just stormed in and nearly flattened Ruobei City, rendering the Apocalypse Paradise side's plan to rely on local strength futile.

As for their meticulously prepared urban warfare and n encirclement formations, plus using civilians for cover—don't joke; in the face of an incoming tsunami, urban warfare? There's no possibility of urban warfare at all.

Qingying sees this clearly; he knows the Reincarnation Paradise side lacks unity, while Apocalypse Paradise is the opposite—relatively united.

Qingying wants to scatter the battlefield, striving to prevent Apocalypse Paradise contractors from gathering, so they can fight in small-scale engagements amid this tsunami disaster.

On the beach, Su Xiao closed the war channel; he saw Qingying's plan in the war channel and had to admit: this fourth-tier strongest Old Yinbi is not undeserving of his reputation.

"Ow—"

Ignoring Bubu Wang let out a long howl, it hated this pulse wave, too loud for the ears.

Just as Su Xiao was preparing to cross the beach and enter Lubei City, a short figure walking on the beach came into view.

"Hmph!"

The short figure let out a cold snort, trying not to look at Su Xiao, lest it stir up resentment in the heart.

"Woof."

Ignoring Bubu Wang barked, meaning: "Hey there, little brat, long time no see, little brat."

The short girl in red children's clothing flipped the middle finger, Su Xiao encountered Gululu on the beach, enemies meeting, exchanging 'greetings' to show 'friendship', very 'united'.
