Chapter 146: Madness

Sun Ming raised his head and laughed: “City Lord He, you are still so naive. If I kill you, what you said will belong to us, and it will be more than what you gave us.”

He Ange’s lips trembled. He looked around and realized that he was surrounded by demons.

If he was given another chance, he would not ask for so many tempering fruits from Sun Ming, nor would he believe their lies and follow them.

But he didn’t know that Sun Ming had been determined to kill him from the beginning. Even if he didn’t leave the city today, he would find other opportunities.

“I should have driven your team away directly from the beginning…”

He should have done this at that time so that he would not have fallen to this point. The murderous behavior should have been curbed from the moment it happened.

Before he died, he used his last moments to send an email.

The people surrounding him swarmed up and wanted to kill He Ange, thinking that the last blow would be their own, so all the city lord’s supplies would be his own.

Sun Ming did not move to the side, and the other members of the Red Wolf team stood beside him.

He Ange died and turned into a point of light, just like the wild monsters they killed.

Just under this spot of light, a large amount of materials appeared out of thin air. There were so many and miscellaneous things, including food, equipment, and props, that it confused the eyes of everyone present.

Sun Ming and the others only focused on a few light spots floating in the air.

Those light spots looked so familiar. They were the light spots they saw at the beginning of the end of the world. There would have been many more of them.

Seeing a hand trying to grab those light spots, the member of the Red Wolf team simply shot an arrow.

Sun Ming’s cold voice sounded in the ears of these people: “Those are ours, you can just take the ones on the ground.”

But now these people were red-eyed. Who can listen to his words? If they can kill He Ange, they can turn their butcher knife on the so-called captain of the Red Wolf Squad.

The facial expression of the man whose hand was shot was distorted. He turned to look at Sun Ming and others: “Do you think you are so awesome? Sun Ming.” He stared at them with strange eyes as he said: “I wonder what good things will come out of killing you.”

This was beyond Sun Ming’s expectations: “Are you planning to do this? You must know that our team was recognized as the strongest in the city before.”

The man seemed to have heard a big joke: “No matter how powerful you are, are you better than He Ange? He also has a group of powerful NPC troops, but now, he is dead.”

Sun Ming frowned. He did not expect that the cooperators would have the courage to turn against them.

“Since you are stubborn, let’s see who can survive to the end.”

It was another melee, but they started fighting, and other eyes were coveting those light spots floating in the air.

The deputy captain has already received the call. He protected his family behind him and stared nervously at the surroundings. He didn’t care about the things that were revealed. Now the place has fallen into chaos. Even He Ange was dead.

[System prompt: The owner of Longjiao City has died, and the city-building order has been transferred to the designated heir. Since the heir refuses to inherit, the city-state will dissipate within 60 seconds.]

The residents of the city-state all received this email. They did not expect that even after the death of the city lord, the city founding order could still be given to the designated person.

The deputy captain said to the teammates beside him: “I’m going to Xuantian City in Jinjiang District. You can go wherever you want to go.”

As a result, a group of people did not move: “We also plan to go there. City Lord Yao and City Lord Li both went there after disbanding the city-state. We believe we can live a stable life there.”

The deputy captain nodded, raised his head, and counted the number of people, only to find that Wei Guan was missing: “Where is Wei Guan?”

Others also noticed that Wei Guan didn’t know where he was: “I don’t know, he was next to me just now.”

At this time, Wei Guan was watching not far from the center of the melee. Residents outside the city were pouring out. The city-state was about to dissipate, and they had to run away quickly.

As soon as the results came out, everyone saw mountains of supplies.

Professional residents were fighting, and ordinary residents were rushing toward mountains of supplies like beasts.

The light spot that was floating in the air has long since disappeared, and no one knows who stole this most valuable thing in the chaos.

“Enough!”

In the empty snowy plain, the sound of someone roaring reached everyone’s ears.

The person who shouted this was none other than Wei Guan. His face was full of disgust at the scene in front of him. Everyone seemed to have come back to their senses and stared at him blankly.

His voice was calm, and he looked at these people with firm eyes, “That’s enough. Don’t kill anymore, just get enough supplies for you to survive the winter and leave.”

Sun Ming was beaten until there was only a little bit of blood left. If Wei Guan hadn’t shouted, the man would have struck the last blow. While the opponent was stunned, he quickly drank the potion to replenish his energy and blood.

He doesn’t want to think about the equipment. He was very close to death just now and finally understood that life was their greatest asset.

These words seemed to have magical power, causing the people who were still fighting to stop what they were doing like birds and animals scattering, and take what they wanted and run away.

Wei Guan turned back to the deputy captain and his teammates, and his teammates just patted him on the shoulder.

The deputy captain had a lot of thoughts in his mind, thinking that the city-state would eventually cease to exist, but he did not expect that it would be disbanded in such a way.

Yao Bingan told everyone in the room about the situation, and everyone remained silent after listening.

Lu Jiu never thought that killing a player would reveal all the equipment. It seemed that You Xiaoyu and the others had lied before, and they were probably afraid that they would kill them if they knew the result.

In the end, Li Aoting spoke: “I heard that someone killed a player before, but the results reported at that time were not like this. It turns out that those people also knew how terrible this fact was.”

“Those who join the siege, I don’t know which city-state they will go to. These are all potential time bombs.”

“Will anyone else tell this? Damn, I suddenly feel like I have to not only pay attention to wild monsters but also guard against other people.”

What worried Lu Jiu was that if a city lord was killed and so many supplies were exposed, then if someone knew about it later, how many city lords would be in danger?

At this time, they will not be able to use the law to punish the murderer at all. Even if they were driven out, there was no guarantee that these people would get together with similar intentions and specialize in killing players in the future.

It was not difficult to imagine that they would have to deal with such people personally in the future.

Lu Jiu looked at her hands. She had never thought about killing someone.

Having lived in a peaceful society for twenty years, she has never thought about committing a crime, let alone killing someone. Even if killing in the game world was not as bloody as before the apocalypse, it can easily amplify the evil in people’s hearts.

“They are indeed time bombs and must be eliminated, but how can we overcome the psychological barrier by killing them?” This question made everyone in the room start thinking.

Shen Jufeng’s cold voice sounded in the empty room: “They committed a crime and deserved to die.”

His eyes were firm, not as hesitant as them, and then he continued: “There is an ancient saying that murder must be punished by death. Since there is no law now, let’s do it in the oldest way.”
