Lord of End of World

Chapter 165

The zombie tide retreated and before everyone could recover from their excitement, Jin Shanghui shocked them again with his stunt.

“Is he a zombie or a human being?” someone hidden among the crowd wondered out loud.

Seeing Song Haoran’s complexion, the kind Sun Tiantian weakly explained, “Xiaohui is like a child. He thinks simply and his reaction was probably because he was too excited and wanted to express the joy in his heart.”

“Yes. And he has a strong ability to imitate. Maybe he was taught to do so by you and Lin Wenbo. Hahaha~” Cao Yanan punched Song Haoran’s shoulder and smiled mockingly.

Song Haoran’s dark complexion returned to normal for a little while. His tightly sealed mouth couldn’t help but curl up and smile. As long as Lixin was safe, these little things were really nothing to worry about.

Jin Shanghui stuck to the youth’s lips, feeling the warmth and softness of the lips. Jin Shanghui’s dark golden eyes were full of unparalleled joy. Switching the angle gently, he rubbed the young man’s lips and licked it several times with the tip of his tongue. Feeling that the young man had reached out to push against his chest, he retreated reluctantly.

“Xin...Xin...” Opening his mouth, Jin Shanghui spat out two words with difficulty. His voice was a little broken, a little hoarse and one couldn’t hear it clearly without carefully listening. However, Gong Lixin heard him clearly and his dark, star-like eyes instantly lit up from hearing these two words.

“Xiaohui’s calling me?” he whispered as he held Jin Shanghui’s cheek.

Jin Shanghui opened his mouth and called again. This time, the words were more consistent and clearer. Gong Lixin narrowed his eyes in pleasure. He said nothing for a long time then suddenly leaned on the tip of his toes and placed a heavy kiss on Jin Shanghui’s forehead. Jin Shanghui was stunned. He held the young man’s hand harder. His heart was hot and it beat faster and faster, which was much more comfortable than promoting!

“Brother? Gong Lixin? What are you doing?” The reinforcements from Pu’an County came too late. Jin Shangyu turned away from the crowd and stared at the two who were hugging each other. Aiya~ She was almost blinded by dog food as soon as she came!

“Xiaohui called my name.” Withdrawing from Jin Shanghui’s arms, Gong Lixin gave him the fifth-level mid-grade metal crystal nucleus in his hand as he said so with a smile.

“...” Jin Shangyu was silent for a few seconds before she suddenly rushed in front of Jin Shanghui like a cannonball, grabbing his collar and half-threatening, half-tempting, said, “Brother, call my name too, okay?! Call me! Quick call my name! If you don’t, I’ll confiscate your crystal nucleus!”

Jin Shanghui screamed then placed the crystal nucleus into his mouth and ate it with relish.

“...” Aiya~ That’s not it. How was this different from his usual roar? Jin Shangyu’s cheeky face petrified and the evening breeze blew her into pieces.

Jin Shangyu immediately recovered from her petrification and her expression became very solemn. Lu Yun and the others also had red eyes and deep sorrow spread through the air. They had long noticed the bodies of several injured companions at the bottom of the stone wall. Although they were used to death, the people of Ningcheng considered themselves as a whole; they existed like everyone was family. No matter who died, they felt the same pain in their hearts.

Gong Lixin walked over with a sullen face. He carefully held the body of his fallen companions and said, “Bring them back to Ningcheng for burial.”

“Yes!” The people agreed anonymously with tears in their eyes. The most important thing was to put together the torn and broken bodies of their companion and carry them to the trucks. The ability users of the other bases also felt the grief in their hearts and rummaged through the zombie corpses.

“What are you doing?” After concentrating on the bodies, Gong Lixin walked towards the town with a group of his subordinates. When he saw a man digging out a zombie’s crystal nucleus, he stopped and asked sharply.

The man, scared, almost hid away the dagger, but instead, laughed sheepishly.

“I know you, you are one of Song Haoxuan’s men!” Gong Lixin spoke firmly as his eyes burst into an angry cold light. He waved his hand suddenly and sent out a round of attack. The man couldn’t even scream before he instantly tuned into a pool of mud. The blood-red meat didn’t even have a bone larger than a fingernail.

“Get me all the people from Liaocheng!” Gong Lixin ordered in a deep voice.

“Yes.” Tan Mingyuan immediately took people with him to arrest Liaocheng’s people in the town. The ability users of other bases stared blankly at the bright red meat and shivered. Killing him with a single wave of his hand, Gong Lixin was terrible! However, these people in Liaocheng really deserved to die. If it weren’t for them, there wouldn’t be such a disaster today and their brothers wouldn’t have died! Now, they wanted to steal their loot! They really were shameless!

“It’s been hard for you. More than three hours of battle have passed and the time to used the disinfectant has also passed. Anyone who’s injured, come to my yard to get an oral disinfectant. As long as there’s still a trace of reason, you will not be infected with zombie poison.” Under everyone’s eyes filled with fear, Gong Lixin calmly announced this piece of news.

Although these people participated in the conspiracy of Liaocheng, they did not make any substantial moves. In the end, they paid a huge price to protect him and thus, should be compensated appropriately. Just as his father said, a commander should be someone who was generous and who inspired awe.

The fear in their hearts receded in an instant and everyone showed an expression of gratitude. They were all more or less injured. They thought that even if they didn’t die now, they would inevitably be infected with zombie poison and become zombies themselves. Gong Lixin’s words undoubtedly heard by their ears and their goodwill for the youth rose in one go to unimaginable heights. Several surviving base leaders stepped forward and bowed to the youth, repeatedly apologizing for their previous actions.

“It’s okay. Let’s go to a place to treat the wounded first.” Gong Lixin waved his hand, his attitude quite generous. Seeing their leader’s attitude towards them, the admiration in everyone’s eyes became even more surreal. Contrary to Song Haoxuan’s brutality, Gong Lixin’s generosity was obviously more popular. Although they had not communicated with each other, these leaders had already determined that the new ruler of Country C was none other than Gong Lixin.

In the small farmyard, Jin Shangyu was treating the wounds of the wounded and oral disinfectants were also distributed to the ability users of other bases. Of course, this time it was for free, but next time, they would have to exchange them for materials. After this battle, she believed that this oral disinfectant would become a pivotal medicine for survivors in Country C in the future. As for the universal antidote, does this magical anti-zombie poison really exist? Anyway, they, the Ningcheng’s people, have never heart of it!

“Lixin, what are you going to do with these people?” Song Haoran and He Jin escorted more than 30 people from Liaocheng into the small farmyard. Bai Qiming and several of his subordinates were still in a state of resistance and were thrown to the ground like garbage by He Jin. People from Liaocheng were very cunning and they withdrew from the town when the situation turned for the worst. They were the ones with the least casualty.

Gong Lixin lowered his head and seemed to be thinking.

Bai Qiming’s face distorted and he said, with a tone filled with humiliation. “If you want to kill, kill! I’m not afraid of you!”

Gong Lixin coldly replied to him, pronouncing his words one by one, “Will killing you make you die with remorse? My brothers who have died would definitely not agree with it.”

The eyes of the young man’s ink-like eyes were filled with ice as he stared at Bai Qiming and others with a cold look. Bai Qiming’s mouth opened and closed. He finally didn’t dare say anything more that might stimulate the youth. He wasn’t afraid of death, he was terrified.

“Feed them with two bottles of blue liquid and throw them towards the edge of Wucheng.” After thinking for a moment, Gong Lixin told his decision to his subordinates.

If two bottles of blue liquid were poured, they would be unable to use their abilities for ten days. They’d be weak for almost half a month. Add to that, throwing them to the edge of the fog city, they would definitely be found by zombies sooner or later and eaten raw. This method of death was terrible.

Everyone had no objection to the leader’s decisions, took the blue liquid from Li Dongsheng, forced open the mouths of those people and poured it in. Bai Qiming felt anxious and kept cursing, his increasingly sharp voice betrayed his inner panic.

“Ah, wait!” Jin Shangyu patted her head and suddenly yelled.

“What’s wrong?” Gong Lixin asked with raised brows.

“Just give them the blue liquid, don’t throw them to Wucheng.” Jin Shangyu hurriedly said, “Send a person to Liaocheng with a letter and ask them if they would like to exchange their pharmacists for these hostages.”

“Letting other people have a taste of their own medicine? That’s a good idea.” Gong Lixin nodded.

“They will be willing. Now Liaocheng’s master should be Bai Hong. Bai Hong and Bai Qiming are brother and sister and they are very close to each other and would not abandon the other.” He Jin sneered then asked Bai Qiming, “Bai Qiming, don’t you agree?”

“Yes, my sister will surely save me.” Bai Qiming replied through gritted teeth, holding back the killing intent in his heart.

Gong Lixin felt the killing intent and frowned slightly. It was not impossible to exchange for pharmacists for these people, but he was not used to returning tigers to their mountains.

Thinking of that, Gong Lixin’s eyes flashed slightly and he said to several subordinates, “Continue to administer the medicines.”

After the drugs had taken effect, Gong Lixin walked up to those people and quickly tapped his fingers around their bodies. These people screamed in pain as they felt their bodies feel like they were torn apart by sharp claws. If it were not for their weakened self, they would have rolled over in pain.

“What did you do?” Bai Qiming’s teeth were clenched, his face was pale and there were angry blue veins all over his forehead as he was drenched with cold sweat.

“Let you also taste the pain of being shredded.” Gong Lixin spoke lightly, but didn’t tell the truth. The people of Ningcheng saw their leader’s move and their hearts were clear. The powers of these ability users were destroyed by the leader, so it doesn’t matter if they were send back or not. Wasn’t Liaocheng implementing the ‘optimizing race’ policy? Let them taste the taste of being inferior, which was worse than killing them directly.

Thanks to swallowing the blue liquid, the ability to sense their ability had disappeared. Thus, Bai Qiming had no doubt about his words, so he secretly gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, thinking about how, when he returned to Liaocheng later, he must find a chance to take revenge.

After a moment, Jin Shangyu made a list and handed it over to Gong Lixin and explained carefully, “Alright, these people are all I want. Their professional skills are very good and I’ve cooperated with them before. You send someone with this list to Liaocheng and tell them not to try and fool us with a few cats and dogs. If they replace someone for a wrong one, they will only get parts of Bai Qiming.”

Gong Lixin nodded and handed over the list to one of the people of Liaocheng that was left behind and asked, “Did you heard her clearly?”

The man nodded and took the list with trembling hands. Unexpectedly, the people of Ningcheng knew their situation well. These scientists were the top and best talents in Liaocheng. If they were all given to Ningcheng, then Liaocheng would definitely collapse. Even if Bai Hong’s ability was strong, there would be no big waves from their base in the future, not to mention how could she be better than Young Master Gong?

Bai Qiming was paralyzed on the ground with his head lowered. The murderous intention was evident in his dark red eyes. He blindly immersed himself in hatred, ignoring the ridicule and mocking coming from He Jin’s mouth whenever the other looked at him.
