Chapter 113 - 113: It’s a Bit Troublesome
“You possess such profound power…cough… why do you still get angry for the weak…”
Struggling to his feet, Longtu felt astonished. This man’s power completely shattered his concept of fifth-order enhancements. No fifth-order enhancement from the three districts is as strong as this!
This man’s power is on par with the Shadow King… No… Even superior!
Sixth-order!
Unbeknownst to others, this man has achieved an unprecedented feat, becoming a sixth-order enhancement!
Jiang Li, of course, had held back, otherwise, Longtu would’ve died without even realizing it.
Jiang Li kicked Longtu out of the skyscraper.
The commotion that Jiang Li caused was too large, and countless people were watching him now.
When Longtu was kicked out of the skyscraper like a prodigal dog, scrambling in the air, it attracted everyone’s attention.
Even the lowest classes, those who spend their days toiling for contribution points, began to look up at the situation.
Enhancers only amplify their physical aspects and don’t possess the ability to float. Longtu used his feet to compress the air and provide a platform for himself to run away.
Run!
He must run!
Facing a sixth-order enhancer, he had no hope of victory!
However, he had barely taken a few steps in the air when he saw Jiang Li appearing before him like a ghost.
“Boss, boss! Can’t you get your anger out by beating me?” Longtu quickly showed his weakness.
“I admit defeat, third district is yours!” Longtu, scared and sweating profusely, tried to prove his worth, “You certainly need subordinates, and I am very familiar with the third district, being one of the only five enhancements. You will definitely need me.”
Watching from the top of the skyscraper, Ye Wu was dumbfounded. She had never seen Longtu, who always held his head high and disdained everyone on the big screen, in such a lowly state.
“Your power is enough to rule the world. From what I know, the other four fifth-order enhancers are all unruly fellows. If you take me in, it’s like winning hearts. If you kill me, they will surely harbor resentment against you. Even if you’re as powerful as you are, you should consider the thoughts of the fifth-order enhancers…”
In Longtu’s view, Jiang Li attacking him and exploiting the lower class was just an excuse. What he really wanted was the third district, or even the whole world. And to rule the world, he would undoubtedly need help, that’s where Longtu comes in.
A sixth-order powerhouse could definitely wipe out all zombies, it would just be a matter of time. Once the zombies are gone and a new order is established, he would be the main contributor, and by then, what he rules won’t be just the third district, but countless third districts.
Becoming his first follower would certainly yield countless benefits. This was not a crisis, but an opportunity.
As for Ye Du and Ye Wu, Longtu didn’t take them seriously. How can such a waste as a second-order qualify to be a follower of a powerhouse like Jiang Li? He is the one and only, the first subordinate.
“Why should a strong person care about the thoughts of the weak?” Jiang Li said indifferently.
“Huh?”
Before Longtu could react, he saw a fist coming towards him, growing larger and larger…
In full view of the public, Jiang Li pulverized Longtu into lumps of mud, leaving no resemblance to a human form.
Everyone couldn’t believe what they were seeing, but they had to.
The strong and arrogant Longtu, was dead.
The tycoon disappeared. The protector of the tycoon, Longtu, no, Longtu was also dead. The mountain that had always loomed over everyone’s heads had disappeared…
The elites were like death harbingers, holding the scythe of death, urging people to work like clockwork, pouring all their energy into earning contribution points.
Without earning contribution points, death awaited.
Everyone takes a silent breath of relief. Compared to facing zombies, they were more afraid of facing these elites.
But with the elites and Longtu dead, whether this strong stranger who killed Longtu would become another “Longtu” was a question mark at the back of everyone’s minds.
Jiang Li didn’t respond to the speculations of the citizens of the third district, which was unnecessary. Should he tell them he’s just a passerby from another world, would they believe him?
Seeing the look of doubt and expectation in people’s eyes, Jiang Li knew he had achieved his goal.
Killing his way into the robber barons, slaughtering Longtu under the eyes of everyone, everything Jiang Li did had only one purpose to give people hope and awaken their hopeful hearts.
Regardless of whether they doubt or anticipate, what’s important is their thoughts are no longer rigid and numb.
“Boss, should we head to the first district next?”
Ye Wu looked at Jiang Li attentively, knowing he’s stronger than a fifth-order is one thing, actually witnessing him beat Longtu into a dead dog is another.
“Of course.” Jiang Li nodded affirmatively.
He could not possibly stay in the third district forever. Now that he had wiped out all the fourth and fifth-order enhancers in the third district, if he left, with just a wave of zombies, the third district would be in great danger.
“It’s going to be a lot of trouble.”
Ye Du also nodded. What he actually meant was there will be many deaths; the third district didn’t have many strong ones to begin with, and Jiang Li had already killed a group of them. Moving nearly ten million people to the first district, with poor organization, carrying loads of food and other necessities, might take several months to reach the first district.
They wouldn’t know how many zombies they would face and how many people would die on this journey. If they were to face a wave of zombies, there would be even more casualties.
Even though the boss is strong, he couldn’t possibly protect nearly ten million people at the same time.
The boss is a man, not a god.
There is indeed a way to save most people, which is to let the boss transport them to the first district batch by batch. Send tens of thousands of people in each batch, a hundred trips should do.
But this method also has risks. If the boss spends most of his time transporting people, then there’s no one to protect the third district. If they face a wave of zombies, the district would be annihilated.
He only thought about this in his mind and did not utter a word. Speaking out would have caused discomfort.
“It’ll be a bit of a hassle.”
Jiang Li agreed with Ye Du’s viewpoint.
He flew to the sky, from his view, the third district was merely the size of a palm. He made a scooping gesture towards the third district. The people of the third district felt a slight tremor and nothing else.
However, the guards at the gate of the third district gasped. They would never forget this moment in their lives.
The third district is encased by a hundred -meter-high metal wall, people on the inside can’t see the outside situation, but those guarding the gate could see it clearly.
The third district along with the nearby land, has been molded into one structure by some unknown force, freeing from the fetters of the earth and gravity, and floating in the air in a very unscientific manner!
The concepts of faith, gods, and so on had been forgotten in the ten years following the apocalypse. But at this moment, the guards couldn’t help but kneel down.
There are indeed gods in this world..
