Chapter 2035

~8 min read 1,405 words

The three-story small building was soon cleaned up, and Yahada's corpse was secretly tossed into the corruption pool in District B.

Under the incandescent light, on a high platform, Naga had changed into a black and red garment. In his 32 years of life, he had never worn such clean and well-fitting clothes.

And under the metal frame, a large group of hunters were looking at Naga. They were all very confused now: the leader wanted to summon them, so why was a hunter squad leader standing on the high platform, dressed so brightly?

There were several hundred hunters under the high platform. There were over 2,000 hunters in Shelter No. 9, but most of them had been sent out to promote the existence of the treatment medicine, in order to quickly pull in manpower.

Bang!

A gunshot rang out, and the several hundred hunters all quieted down. They weren't afraid of the gunshot; this was daily life. They were just attracted by it.

Broken Tooth winked at Naga, signaling that the other party could start. In fact, Broken Tooth was a bit dazed now. Heaven knows what had happened. The "invincible" Yahada suddenly died, and his good friend Naga became the new leader.

"Everyone, from today on, I have the final say here."

Naga shouted, and the hunters below looked at him with wide eyes.

"Hahaha."

"You have the final say? Naga, is your brain broken? The leader's punishment is no joke."

"Changed again. How long did Yahada sit in that position?"

The shouting of several hundred people made the scene abnormally chaotic.

Naga raised his hand, and Broken Tooth on the side understood, firing a shot at the giant leather bag above.

With a clatter, a large amount of Shock coins scattered, like flowers falling from the sky. After the hunters were stunned for a moment, they immediately began to scramble for them.

"Are you happy!"

Bloodshot eyes appeared in Naga's eyes. His loud shout made the hunters scramble even more fiercely.

"Naga, if you become leader, what can we get?"

The tattooed hunter shouted, now acting as a bystander.

"Good question. You can get... this."

Naga beckoned again, and a few people carried up a super-large iron tank. Naga patted the iron tank and said:

"I have some bad news for you: the treatment medicine cannot cure Blood Burning forever."

As soon as Naga said this, the area under the high platform went silent instantly. How did that saying go? I could have endured the darkness, but you let me see the light.

Nearly half of the hunters present had just recovered from Blood Burning, and Naga told them that this disease couldn't be cured permanently. They might fall into hell again. No one could accept this huge gap.

"I have some good news for you: this medicine is prepared by Mr. Kuku Lin. Even if you suffer from Blood Burning again, this medicine is equally effective. Mr. Kuku Lin has chosen to support me. What about you?"

Naga's gaze swept across the area below the high platform. The hunters looked at each other, suppressing the greed and ambition in their hearts.

"Naga! Naga!"

The tattooed man, who was acting quite well, shouted twice.

"Naga! Naga! Naga..."

The hunters raised their arms and clenched their fists, shouting. Now, they also chose to support Naga. Food and water were necessities for survival, and for hunters, treatment medicine was also a necessity.

Mastering a large amount of Shock coins and treatment medicine, becoming leader was no problem at all. Therefore, the power system of the shelter was very simple, and it was precisely because of this that the leader changed frequently.

Half an hour later, when Naga walked down from the high platform, his temperament was slightly different, but his hands were shaking, and his heart was pounding. Even now, he still felt like he was dreaming.

"Naga, what do we do next?"

Broken Tooth scratched his messy hair. Clearly, with his relationship with Naga, becoming the number two figure in Shelter No. 9 was a done deal.

"Let me think..."

Naga's face showed contemplation, and Broken Tooth and his brother, the gloomy youth, also looked solemn.

"A bit hungry, let's fill our stomachs first."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"I'm hungry too."

The gloomy youth's pale complexion looked very much like he could die on the spot at any time, even though his Blood Burning had been cured.

What no one noticed was that two men and one woman were mixed in the crowd, and the expressions of these three were somewhat interesting.

"Holy crap! The invader has already built a force. What do we do? Go assassinate him?"

"You've lived long enough, haven't you? If we don't kill him in a short time, there will be hundreds of hunters besieging us."

"Then, observe first?"

The girl among the three spoke. Her appearance was soft and beautiful, her temperament elegant, but now, she, who was usually unflappable, wanted to hit someone. As a Combat Angel, she had been temporarily summoned.

The "Angel" girl had gone through great pains to find the target, only to be "surprised" to find that the other party had become the behind-the-scenes big boss of a force. Going to kill the other party was equivalent to being hostile to hundreds of people, and those hundreds of people would fight to the death.

Originally, when the three Combat Angels met, they all smiled knowingly. After all, normal cleanup missions were individual actions. This time, three people were in a team, simply as steady as an old dog.

But after field observation, they found that it wasn't like that at all. If the three of them dared to make a move now, they would be turned into a sieve in an instant.

"Then let's... observe for a while."

The more mature-looking Combat Angel spoke. The three reached a consensus: stay low, wait for an opportunity. This was very Apocalypse.

Inside Yahada's residence, Su Xiao was rummaging through the second floor of the small building. Eliminating Yahada was quite sudden, so the other party should have left behind quite a few good things.

And the reward for killing Yahada made Su Xiao somewhat disappointed.

【You have obtained 1.68% of the World's Source.】

There was only this reward, and no treasure chest dropped at all. Originally, Su Xiao thought he could at least obtain a Legendary-tier, or even Epic-tier treasure chest.

As for stripping Yahada's soul memories, Su Xiao had no interest at all. The other party clearly didn't have the same combat style as him. Moreover, in each world, the active effect of the Soul Eater could only be used three times, so it had to be used cautiously.

With a bang, Amu pushed over a row of wooden cabinets, while Baha was studying a metal box, having tried various methods but unable to open it by force.

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's bark came. Su Xiao walked over upon hearing it, and Amu and Baha did the same.

They saw Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's front half buried in the wall, its hind legs kicking wildly.

"Ha-ge, what are you doing?"

Baha looked at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang in confusion, and Amu didn't understand what it meant either.

"Seems like... it's stuck."

"Woof."

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang began to kick its legs. Seeing this, Su Xiao pulled Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang out.

The feeling of Su Xiao pulling Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang out of the hole was like pulling out a wooden stopper.

With a clatter, Shock coins poured out from the hole. This was almost all of Yahada's assets.

After cleaning up, there were at least over 100,000 Shock coins. Heaven knows how Yahada exploited so many Shock coins. It was no wonder the hunters accepted Naga so quickly. Yahada was simply too greedy, but he had the capital to be greedy. Judging from that flamboyant set of operations before his death, he could be considered a mid-level old schemer.

Su Xiao sat on a large pile of Shock coins and lit a cigarette. The follow-up actions were already very clear: use the treatment medicine to quickly recruit hunters, then let these hunters search the world for the superhuman plant Dibam's seedlings, or find the main body directly.

Su Xiao's subsequent actions also destined one thing: the three Combat Angels who chose to stay low for the time being would gradually become autistic.
