Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot

Chapter 430: Chapter 194 Firefly Club_2

Wang Tao is the most formidable Ability User she has ever met! Following someone like him is definitely more promising than following Huang Heng!

What’s more important is that although Wang Tao had beaten her many times, and she subconsciously felt a little terrified whenever she thought of Wang Tao, he was a person with bottom lines. You could tell from the fact that he “hates survivors who cheat and deceive” and “sends survivors who could make him Crystal Cores to prison.”

If she were to join another power, she didn’t know what those bosses would be like. Places like prisons were fine for business, but she would never dare to join one!

As for establishing her own faction, she knew she wasn’t cut out for it. After all, her combat ability wasn’t strong…

So after giving it some serious thought, Nie Siyan decided to go back to the arcade.

Though she knew Wang Tao disliked her, she had done quite a few things for him, and he probably wouldn’t kill her.

Then, if she were just a bit more sincere, there was a certain likelihood that Wang Tao would take her in. So, she came back.

When Wang Tao saw Nie Siyan nod, he said with a half-smile,

“Do you think you are worthy?”

It wasn’t that Wang Tao was mocking her, but she needed to realize who was by Wang Tao’s side—there was Xu Xiaojun, there was Jiang Shixue. How could she compare to either of them?

“I’m not worthy! I know I’m not, but I hope Brother Wang will give me a chance! I will definitely perform well…”

Nie Siyan prostrated herself at Wang Tao’s feet.

Wang Tao frowned and pondered for a moment.

He felt that Nie Siyan probably really did want to follow him, given that his strength was plain for all to see.

But Wang Tao didn’t want to take on a drag, and to be honest, he didn’t quite trust her character.

After all, she could even kill her husband and brother-in-law, and she was adept at cheating and deceiving; how could he trust such a person?

However, looking at Nie Siyan’s “I’m very sensible” expression, Wang Tao felt that although it was unlikely to bring her to the military base, since he was going to stay in Zijing City for a while, maybe he could keep her around to run errands and handle odd jobs.

“Lift your head.”

Wang Tao ordered.

Nie Siyan immediately lifted her head and looked at Wang Tao with both fear and anticipation.

Wang Tao stretched out his hand, gently stroking Nie Siyan’s hair, as if he were petting a small dog.

“I’ll give you a chance, perform well, and I hope you won’t disappoint me. Otherwise…”

Wang Tao’s hand slowly slid down to rest on Nie Siyan’s neck.

Nie Siyan felt a shiver down her spine, but her pupils showed a glint of joy, and she quickly promised,

“Yes! I definitely won’t disappoint Brother Wang!”

“Then go ahead.”

Wang Tao patted her cheek, and Nie Siyan slowly got up and respectfully left the room.

Once outside, she immediately leaned against the wall, feeling her back drenched with sweat. But her mood at the moment was somewhat excited.

Although Wang Tao didn’t directly take her in, he had given her a chance. She had to seize this opportunity! As long as she served Wang Tao well, she was sure to benefit—even if Wang Tao rewarded her with nothing, just providing her shelter alone was worth it!

Inside the room, Wang Tao tidied up the Crystal Cores and then went to bed.

Keeping Nie Siyan or not didn’t really matter to him. Since she came back on her own initiative, he gave her a chance.

Jiang Shixue, who had been in the shadows, immediately ran to the bed, cuddling up to Wang Tao like a clingy kitten.

“Time to sleep.”

…

The next day.

Nie Siyan gathered everyone once again.

Her expression was somewhat sad.

The crowd was puzzled and very uneasy.

Because they had realized that those with high Contribution Points who were called out yesterday had all disappeared—they had been directed to wait in the arcade’s back parking lot and weren’t aware of what had happened in the hall.

They thought Boss Huang had taken those people somewhere else to enjoy some privileges. Or maybe Boss Huang had abandoned them, taking those people to a new base…

The more they thought about it, the more anxious they became.

After all, under the current circumstances, if they weren’t protected by powerful Ability Users, they truly might not survive!

Once everyone had arrived, Nie Siyan spoke with a downcast tone,

“Those who were called out yesterday… were sold to the prison.”

“???”

The crowd was stunned, and then an uproar ensued.

Sold to prison? Being well aware of what that meant in their line of work—those people were practically pronounced dead, and not just any death, but a terrible one!

“Wh-why…”

An ordinary person asked in a trembling voice.

He didn’t want to be sold into prison; he wanted to live!

“Because Boss Huang was short on Crystal Cores, he sold those people in exchange for Crystal Cores…”

Nie Siyan explained.

“…”

The crowd was somewhat dumbfounded.

The boss could be short on Crystal Cores? Even if he was, shouldn’t he just squeeze them a bit, making them work harder? Who would kill the goose that lays the golden eggs by selling the people…

Fear spread rapidly among the crowd.

If the boss could sell those high-performing individuals, he could definitely sell them too!

They even suspected that Nie Siyan might tie them up later…

But then they heard Nie Siyan continue,

“Regarding Boss Huang’s actions, we were as puzzled as you, so we went to confront him. And then… Huang Wu and Liao Xia got into a fight with Boss Huang…”

“???”

Again the crowd was filled with question marks.

The leadership fought among themselves? Could that really happen?
