translator: liu_kaixuan editor: valvrave
âcaptain jiang hurry up and hand over the core! itâs very unstable. the black hole may break out again,â said han yuan urgently. at the same time, the battle tank got closer.
suddenly, a gunshot sounded, and a bullet mark appeared on the ground in front of the battle tank. zhang hai had appeared out of the window, holding his gun. he was stared at han yuan angrily and shouted, âif you get any closer, what iâll shoot next wonât be the ground!â
upon hearing zhang haiâs words, han yuan and wan yiling were stunned. it had never crossed their minds that an ordinary survivor would dare to threaten a general.
despite shouting and threatening a major general, zhang hai was quite calm. in his mind, only jiang liushiâs words mattered. no matter who they were, if jiang liushi gave the order, zhang hai would shoot at once. a general was not an exception. let alone han yuan, whose title was conferred to him. they had already killed commissioner chu, a genuine military-raised official, back in shenhai island. compared to him, han yuan could be regarded as a piece of cake.
wan yiling may have been looking down on the shi ying squad because it was a survivorsâ team, but she was unaware that before their eyes she was not any better than a puny ant.
han yuan looked at him nervously and said, âshi ying squad! whatâs this supposed to mean? do you want to keep the core for yourselves? the core is a ticking time bomb! you might hurt the people around you at any time. also, you canât use it! if you hand it over right now, iâll pretend this never happened. i will even help you gain more benefits.â
han yuan was a man full of arrogance and confidence. in his mind, only his group had the abilities to develop and explore the energy body of black light. the core was useless to anyone else. han yuan believed that jiang liushi was a smart man and he would make the right choice. naturally, if jiang liushi were to refuse, that would mean that he was disobeying direct orders and didnât take other people into consideration.
after han yuanâs revelation, the spectators felt nervous and afraid.
âcaptain jiang youâd better hand the core to general han. after all, general han must have the means to deal with it. moreover, if our comrades hadnât sacrificed their lives to weaken the black hole, it would have been impossible for you to kill it,â blurted tang cangyun.
the crowd had clearly witnessed how jiang liushiâs team had saved all of them. when they heard tang cangyunâs nonsense, they were angered and felt ashamed, but nobody was willing to say anything.
tang cangyun sneered in his mind. initially, he had been worried that jiang liushi would be unfavorable to him for all he had done. but to tang cangyunâs surprise, jiang liushi was so arrogant that he dared to threaten general han. therefore, tang cangyun didnât waste such a good opportunity to bootlick han yuan.
âcaptain jiang, the core does not belong to you. you have no right to keep it,â said tang cangyun. he believed that han yuan would not mistreat him in the future. his performance was satisfying enough.
wei feifei stared at tang cangyun angrily. in her mind, tang cangyun was a despicable person.
unexpectedly, zhang hai raised his gun and aimed at tang cangyun. in turn, tang cangyun got an ominous feeling, and he instinctively tried to flee.
âdonât you dare!â shouted han yuan in anger.
unfortunately, his threats fell into deaf ears.
in the next second, a gunshot sounded!
tang cangyun, who was about to flee, felt his body turning stiff once again. he could only stare in terror at zhang hai who had pulled the trigger. then, the bullet stuck tang cangyunâs chest and smashed his heart, causing him to fly like a kite without a string and fall to the ground. tang cangyunâs were opened wide due to shock while his body convulsed on the ground before stopping forever. he had never expected that the shi squad would have dared to kill him in front of so many people.
han yuanâs expression was sensational as he was staring at the minibus coldly.
âyou actually dared to kill one of my subordinates in front of me!?â said han yuan angrily.
tang cangyunâs death was equivalent to slapping han yuanâs face. initially, he could have rescued tang cangyun, but he was locked down by the black sniper rifleâs muzzle extending from the circular room on top of the minibus. behind the sniper rifle was jiang liushi, who was quite calm.
âjiang liushiâ¦â whispered han yuan coldly. he knew that if he were to move, jiang liushi would not hesitate to kill him. between saving tang cangyun or preserving his life, han yuanâs choice was crystal clear. the fact that he had been forced to make a decision annoyed him greatly. it had been a long time since anyone had dared to treat him like a small fry, especially after becoming a general. han yuan could not help but wonder where jiang liushi, a mere ordinary survivor, had found the courage to treat him like that.
at that moment, jiang liushi spoke, taunting han yuan. âdo you really want the core? in your dreams!â
upon hearing that, han yuanâs pupils shrank.
wei feifei snapped of her stupor and turned to look at jiang liushi. she was worried about him as his last remark had destroyed any chances of salvaging the situation. although the assault team had suffered heavy losses, there were still many soldiers, as well as weapons. jiang liushi had only a handful of teammates to support him. the power gap was quite big.
at the same time, many soldiers that regarded jiang liushi as their savior were worried about him. they all sighed in their hearts because of jiang liushiâs stubbornness. most of them felt that jiang liushi should have handed the core. then, han yuan would have no reason to ruthlessly kill him in front so many people. after returning to the safety zone, the shi ying squad would even get a lot of resources for their immeasurable contribution.
but now, jiang liushiâs action was equivalent to sending a knife to han yuanâs hands. however, jiang liushi didnât care about this at all, and he was still quite calm. after all, wan yiling was the one who had schemed to steal his minibus first. naturally, to deploy her plan, she would have asked for han yuanâs permission. no matter how polite they acted now, jiang liushi had already decided to punish them.
in jiang liushiâs mind, han yuan was already a dead man. it was just a matter of time before jiang liushi killed him.
âit seems that you refuse my kind intentions,â said han yuan, simultaneously he signaled at wan yiling with his eyes.
wan yiling immediately picked up her walkie-talkie and ordered the soldiers to get ready for battle. soon, the battle tanks arrived one after the other, their cannons aiming at the minibus.
jiang liushi commented as if had not noticed the tanks at all, âwell, if a person was talking to me, i would naturally appreciate their kind intentions. but since itâs you weâre talking about, a dog that only knows how to bark, i feel disgusted even with the idea of believing a word coming out of your mouth.â
âand youâ¦â jiang liushi suddenly looked at wan yiling.
when their eyes met, wan yiling felt afraid as jiang liushiâs gaze was similar to a predatorâs that had locked on its prey. although she was scared, wan yiling tried her best to calm down. after all, in her eyes, jiang liushi was an ordinary survivor. how could she be afraid of him?
âmy sister is dead because of you! you deserve to die!â screamed wan yiling in anger. jiang liushi smiled coldly and stopped paying attention to her.
âjiang liushi it seems that i have to arrest you for the crime of insubordination. itâs a shame as youâre a talented man. originally, i wanted to clear any misunderstandings in a civilized way, but youâre forcing me to act,â said han yuan. he wore a sad expression, but a murderous glint still escaped his eyes.
wei feifeiâs face turned ashen white. she thought that the minibus could not withstand the tanksâ fierce attacks.
ârun!â shouted wei feifei. she had already decided to leave this place with peach. jiang liushi had saved them, and even though she was unable to help, she still tried her best to do so.
jiang liushi heard wei feifei, but he didnât run away. instead, he turned to look at her with a smile.
âhurry up!â shouted wei feifei again.
jiang liushi replied in a calm and gentle voice, âwe will be okay. you should take cover first and take care of yourself.
wei feifei opened her mouth to speak, but she couldnât find the right words. from jiang liushiâs tone, she could tell that he was confident.
âhan yuan, you should better worry about your life. do you think that youâre safe just because you can rely on the military to protect you? youâre wrong!â said jiang liushi.
âitâs a shame that i must kill you today!â added jiang liushi, releasing a murderous aura.
han yuan was shocked. but he was confident in himself. he believed that he could conquer everything as long as he was under the militaryâs protection.
at that moment, han yuan opened his eyes wide as a loud noise came from the minibusâ engine. then, black smoke billowed from the minibusâ exhaust pipe as it darted toward han yuanâs team!
âis he crazy?â han yuan found the scene unbelievable.
