Excessive ferocity due to caution

"Brother Zhao...you're not really going to slaughter the entire V City, are you?!"

Zhao Yi slowly exhaled a puff of white mist and smiled:

Who knows?

...

Inside the Whiteman Manor.

While Whiteman was resting, he suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

He answered the call.

A familiar voice appeared.

"Transaction terminated."

Upon hearing this, a set of words immediately came to mind, and he feigned composure, saying:

"It's probably too late to back down now, isn't it?"

The man said:

"It doesn't matter."

Whiteman's eyes narrowed, a glint of urgency in them:

"Doesn't matter?"

"I'm afraid you're oversimplifying things..."

"You don't really think nobody knows about the deals you've made with me all these years, do you?"

"There are too many people involved in this chain of interests; no one can escape unscathed."

"This time, the problems in V City have completely ignited the military. Now, your only chance of survival is to continue trading with me."

"My experiment is in its final stage. Although the experimental data was stolen and most of the researchers were killed, we've already gone down this path once. The second time, it will be much faster!"

"As long as we act freely and seize enough test subjects amidst the chaos... the perfect Godfall will soon be in our hands!"

"Anyway, V City is in chaos right now, and the military's attention is all drawn to the experimental subjects modified by Godfall. Nobody cares how many people have disappeared from V City..."

The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed.

He was smiling happily.

They were laughing hysterically too.

"Very good, very good..."

That's what the man said.

Whiteman was overjoyed.

This means... consent?

Although his ideas were crazy, they were by no means nonsense.

With the previous research direction in place, as long as there are enough test subjects, it won't be long before he figures out the correct way to use the Divine Meteor!

Although Zhao Shiyi dealt him a heavy blow, the current chaos in V City is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him!

Previously, Buttman was extremely careful, fearing that the military would find even the slightest clue.

Therefore, research progress on the fall of gods was extremely slow.

But things are different now.

Things have developed in a way that has completely exceeded his expectations.

He was pushed to the brink of despair by the tide and had to fight back!

His anger had made him completely reckless.

"If you agree, let's make the deal as soon as possible!"

Whiteman said.

"trade?"

The other party spoke with contempt.

"No, Boss Bai."

"We will no longer have any deals."

The joy on Whiteman's face froze.

"What do you mean?"

The person on the other end of the phone said:

"I've done what I needed to do."

"To me, you have no value whatsoever."

Upon hearing this, Whiteman shouted angrily into the phone:

"Without me, you guys simply can't play the sheepfold game!"

"The military will find out where you are, and they'll uncover all our transactions!"

"You will die a horrible death, and so will your family!"

The other party said calmly:

"Sheepfold games...who cares?"

"Bai Teman, from the very beginning, you were just a dispensable pawn."

"Don't threaten me with those pointless things."

"The military will never trace it back to me... and even if they do, it doesn't matter."

Whiteman stared intently at his phone, speechless for a long time.

The other person casually lit a cigarette.

"Seeing how miserable you are... let me show you another way out."

"The aftereffects of the overdose of hyena-based solutions you received are not incurable; the military has conducted numerous experiments on this. I'll tell you a method that can make you stronger than Sata, but the chance is only one in ten. If it fails, you will die."

"..."

"Once you succeed, you can go to the location I sent you. There you'll find some of the military's latest black technology weapons, enough for you to confront the mutants injected with Godfall head-on..."

"Whiteman, have your final spree."

"What I'm leaving you is definitely not weak; it's enough for you to stir up trouble."

"If you are truly the one destined for us, you will become the sole winner of the sheepfold game."

Buttman's breathing became heavy:

"you……"

"What exactly do you want to do?"

beep--

The other party hung up the phone.

As he stared at his phone, the red blood vessels in Whiteman's eyes grew increasingly prominent.

Gan Tun, standing to the side, said softly:

"Mr. Bai, this matter is of great importance. Perhaps we should consider it further..."

Swish!

Whiteman suddenly turned his head, and his ferocious gaze startled Gan Tun.

"Should we take a longer-term view?"

"No……"

"It's too late to plan ahead..."

"The situation has now completely exceeded the limits of what the military can accept..."

"If they ultimately win, then V City and its surrounding areas will undergo a massive purge!"

"I'm sure I'll be thrown away like trash!"

Gan Tun comforted him:

"No... Mr. Bai."

"Orion has a lot of wealth and shares in other wealth groups, making it an important economic entity in V City."

"Without sufficient evidence, the military won't easily take action against us!"

Whiteman laughed bitterly:

"evidence?"

"wealth?"

"These things are nothing compared to weapons."

"So what if you're rich?"

"We...don't have guns."

Gan Dun remained silent.

It wasn't that he didn't believe Whiteman's words, but seeing the once spirited young man reduced to such a miserable state made him feel very sad.

"Don't try to persuade me anymore, I've decided to go all in... It's all or nothing!"

...

Police station.

Zhao Yi arrived at Chu Tebi's office.

The latter was resting in his office chair, humming a little tune.

Upon seeing Zhao Yi, Chutebi smiled.

Zhao Yi still had a cigarette dangling from his mouth; he had just lit it not long ago.

"You really surprise me, Chief."

"You too, Lao Zhao."

The two looked at each other across the distance, exhaling smoke, and remained silent for a long time.

"What do you want to do?"

"To replace Whiteman and become the ruler of the sheepfold game?"

Zhao Yi slowly said:

"Not really interested."

"And you?"

Chutby said calmly:

"I'm not really interested."

The two fell silent again.

Zhao Yi said:

"Did you start the sheepfold game?"

Chutebi:

"To be precise, it was me and my sister."

"For most people, this is a game they can't refuse, isn't it?"

Zhao Yi smiled slightly:

"Yes."

Most people don't like privilege.

"But that's only because the privileges aren't in their hands."

"You took advantage of this to extend privileged invitations to a select few, creating a perfectly ruled state with absolute class stratification."

"In military regions where the three branches of government have been separated and confronted each other for many years, there are always those in power who cannot resist the temptation to move forward."

"You and your sister are indeed very capable people."

Chutebi smiled wistfully and said:

"She's not good at all."

"Me too."

"Otherwise, our father would not have died unjustly in prison, and our kind and brave comrades in the police station would not have been destroyed by public opinion."

At this point, he took a deep drag on his cigarette.

"I've thought about giving up on revenge against V City many times."

"Because my former comrades in the police station truly made me feel the brilliance of humanity, and this brilliance purified the resentment I felt towards society."

"I really... really want to be like them."

"But when I saw them being maliciously slandered one by one by the people they were willing to risk their lives to protect, being condemned by the ignorant internet giants, and ultimately suffocating in the tide of public opinion... I woke up."

Chutby's tone was utterly calm and indifferent.

"Just like you said, Lao Zhao."

"Not everyone deserves to be protected."

"They... deserve to die."

Second update.

Goodnight, my darlings!
