Excessive ferocity due to caution

Chapter 424 The Fisherman

The city gate of the inner city.

The five high-ranking near-Great Fiends, who were engaged in a fierce battle with the Tianwang Guild members, suddenly roared:

"We can't hold on any longer!"

"Brothers, retreat!"

Zhao Yi's orders to them were to stall for at least an hour.

They have now exceeded their targets.

The rest is no longer their concern.

Since it's unnecessary, they certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to just force it!

Five high-ranking near-Great Fiends wanted to leave, but how could these guys from the Tianwang Guild possibly keep them?

Many people were filled with rage and wanted to chase after them, but they were quickly stopped by Miao's orders.

He remembered clearly that their target... was Zhao Yi!

"Quickly, get into the inner city, find Zhao Yi, wipe out his forces, and capture him alive!"

Miao gritted his teeth. Their Tianwang Guild had suffered heavy casualties and was now facing the prospect of the Feicheng Guild's assets being seized by others. All these losses were caused by a new player. All he could think about was how to torture Zhao Yi after he caught him and vent his resentment!

Since this last entry into the inner city was entirely due to the five guards being unable to hold out, and everything happened so naturally, Miao Jiang lowered his remaining defenses.

They entered the inner city.

At this moment, Miao Jiang's only target... is Zhao Yi!

Torture him!

Torture him!!

Torture him!!!

Miao led his men relentlessly searching for Zhao Yi in the streets and alleys of the inner city, like mad dogs!

So naturally, Leah quickly approached Miao Jiang.

Upon seeing Leya's bloodshot eyes, Miao did not immediately attack, but coldly said:

"Zhao Yi has the Tianwang Guild's asset certificates. Help me find him."

"The asset certificate is yours."

"I only want Zhao Yi!"

It was very different from what Miao had expected.

Faced with such a generous "offer", Leah not only did not agree, but even directly attacked the Tianwang Guild!

"You're kidding me!"

"Kill those bastards from the Skyward Guild!"

As soon as the two sides started fighting, Miao Jiang keenly realized that something was wrong.

As he frantically fought against the forces summoned by his identity card, he shouted:

"Leya!"

"There might be a misunderstanding between us!"

Leah cursed:

"Misunderstanding my ass!"

"You fucking raided my house with your men, and you're still putting on an act here?"

"Today I'll skin you alive!"

Duan family?

The members of the Sky Hope Guild were dumbfounded!

When did they take down the Monroe Guild?

They've been staying in the outer city area the whole time!

Confused as they were, they had no chance to explain at that moment.

Leah wouldn't listen to their explanations at all.

Seeing the guild members dying one after another at the hands of Leya, Miao Jiang finally couldn't hold back anymore. The ghost fire that Zhao Yi had stirred up erupted at this moment!

You won't let me live?

Alpaca!

Nobody should live!

Miao immediately gave orders to the remaining guild members to resist Leah's attack while migrating towards the center of the original battlefield!

Fight!

It's a fight to the death, today is the day!

Kill as many as you can!

...

In the distance, the rooftop pool terrace on the top floor of the Tianwang Hotel.

Zhao Yi, wearing floral shorts and sunglasses, swirled his wine glass in a very flamboyant manner, gazing at the distant battle.

The plan has reached a critical stage.

They don't need to do anything anymore.

What needed to be done has been done.

The members of the Jie Sect have already begun preparing the hotel.

Once the great battle outside is over, this place will completely become the territory of the Jie Sect!

Chris massaged Zhao Yi, the alluring look in her beautiful eyes completely gone, replaced by deep thought:

"Owner……"

"After this great battle, all the player forces in the Wasteland will be incorporated into Chang Yu's White Rose Guild. Their human resources and network of relationships are far inferior to the three major guilds of Tianwang, so their operational level is not high. I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand the pressure from the three guilds..."

"Furthermore... are you really not going to bring the authority over these resources under your own control, but instead entrust them to Chang Yu?"

"Aren't you afraid Chang Yu will betray you?"

The red wine in the transparent glass slid down Zhao Yi's throat as smoothly as fresh blood, and he elegantly handed the glass to Chris.

"I just need an administrator; who manages the ruined city... doesn't matter."

"Chang Yu will be pulled into the Jie Sect later."

"He can refuse me... but he and his guild will disappear completely."

After a pause, Zhao Yi looked at Miao Jiang, who was being brutally beaten on the ground in the distance, and laughed:

"As for operational issues... I admit it."

"Whether it's the Jie Sect or the White Rose Guild, their operational methods are indeed inferior to those of the three giant guilds: Tianwang, Chuijiao Lianying, and Moxu..."

"That's why I gave up 30% of the resources to Barbara of the Liu Group."

"This is equivalent to me providing the money and her providing the labor."

"I profit from her operational methods, and she profits from my resources."

"A win-win situation for everyone."

Looking at the dazed Chris, Zhao Yi traced his fingertip up her delicate cheek and touched her temple.

Chris snapped out of her daze.

During the eye contact, Zhao Yi said:

"The Liu Group is the largest conglomerate in Liucheng."

"It's also an asset left behind by one of the strongest players in the Bone Zone."

"When it comes to operations and networking... to be frank, even the three guilds combined are no match for the Liu Group."

Zhao Yi's deep gaze made Chris involuntarily take a half step back.

In that instant just now,

She seemed to see again that red-robed figure standing atop the bones of countless beings.

It was just a fleeting illusion, but it made Chris genuinely feel danger and fear!

As a demonic consciousness, Chris's soul was naturally powerful and she was almost incapable of experiencing any fear.

Except when facing Zhao Yi!

She lowered her head, no longer looking into Zhao Yi's eyes.

Two hours later.

The great battle has ended.

Leah emerged as the ultimate winner.

The three major guilds, Tianwang, Chuijiao Lianying, and Moxu, along with many other top-ranked mid-sized guilds, were almost all wiped out in battle...

Streets, alleys, car roofs...

Corpses were everywhere.

Blood was everywhere.

The horrific scene transformed this once bustling place into a living hell!

The forces that Leah summoned through his identity card are mostly dead.

However, it is much better than the combined forces of the other three guilds.

At least... he can still fight.

Looking at Miao Jiang, who was missing almost half of his body and kneeling in front of him, his life nearly exhausted, Leya dragged an axe covered in stinking bits of flesh and walked toward him with a sinister grin!

"Where are the guild's permissions...?"

He knew that if he killed Miao Jiang, the authority Miao Jiang possessed would appear in the Tianwang Hotel.

But he insisted on forcing Miao to say it himself and hand over the guild's authority!

Leah wanted to see with his own eyes the man who had once been high and mighty kneeling before him in submission!

Miao's face was covered in blood, and her hair was twisted into a messy tangled mess, stuck together by the blood.

He hadn't been this disheveled in a long time.

Looking at the fat man standing in front of him with an axe, Miao Jiang laughed maniacally...

"What are you laughing at when you're about to die?!"

Leya looked at the Miao general who was laughing wildly, and slowly tightened his grip on the blood axe.

After Miao finished laughing, he said in a hoarse voice:

"I'm laughing... You're being used and treated like a dog, and you don't even realize it!"

"You stupid dog..."

"You will never, ever become the king of this ruined city!"

Leah sneered:

"Yeah?"

"I'm truly sorry... From this day forward, I, Leah, am the new king of the ruined city!!"

He shouted, and the guild members around him excitedly waved their arms and shouted Leah's name!

They...won!

From then on, he rose rapidly through the ranks, soaring freely to great heights!

However, an untimely voice, carrying a faint smell of smoke, interrupted their euphoria.

"Yes."

"The ruined city does need a new king... but not you."

Everyone slowly looked toward the source of the sound.

It's Zhao Yi.

Zhao Yi, with a cigarette dangling from his lips.

Leah squinted.

He twisted his neck twice, grinned, and said:

"I almost forgot... there's a stray dog outside the city who wants a share of my property..."

"Zhao Yi, I'll spare your life because you helped me before."

"As long as you hand over control of the outer city area to me, I can allow you to continue being a dog there!"

Zhao Yi smiled.

He raised his hand.

The surrounding streets and alleys were immediately filled with countless assassins...

Their steps were synchronized, and their eyes were firm and cold.

The weapon in his hand exuded a strong killing intent and chilling aura.

There weren't many people, just over two hundred.

But these assassins... at the very least, are at the half-step Great Fiend level!

Two hours earlier, Leah would not have felt any emotional reaction when facing these assassins.

I even felt like laughing.

But now... the situation has changed.

Leah's expression changed as well.

Chang Yu stood in the crowd, looking at Leah with a complicated expression, looking at his former ally, and could only let out a soft sigh.

After this battle, instead of feeling the thrill of becoming the new king of the ruined city, he felt incredibly heavy-hearted.

Being controlled by such a terrifying guy as Zhao Yi... he really couldn't be happy.

Of course, he didn't dare to resist.

In this battle, Zhao Yi not only defeated his enemy, but also terrified his "ally"!

"you……"

"Impossible...impossible!!"

"All the identity cards are clearly in my possession... Where did you get all this influence from?!"

Leah was dumbfounded and refused to believe what he was seeing.

Zhao Yi smiled leisurely, put his hands in his pockets, and walked up to Leya. Under Leya's incredulous gaze, he took out a certificate of asset authorization from his pocket.

That's... the asset certificate for Monro Health Club!

It turns out that what Miao said earlier was true!

The person who stole from his house was indeed Zhao Yi!

Seeing Leya completely dumbfounded, Miao Jiang, who was half-dead on the ground, burst into laughter once again.

He was laughing while coughing up blood.

Zhao Yi glanced at Miao Jiang and took out the body shredder.

"President Miao, thank you for your hard work... There's nothing more for you to do here."

"Go home and rest early."

Zhao Yi lifted up his battered body, ignoring Miao Jiang's furious curses, and threw him directly into the shredder.

"Alright, Mr. Leah... it's your turn."

Zhao gestured to Leya, indicating that Leya should jump into the shredder.

His legs trembled, and he was unwilling to take a single step.
