56: Pervert or Tyrant?

The man let out a somewhat exasperated sound, trying to lure the Red Armored Beetle Beasts in another direction.

However, these Red Armored Beetle Beasts had already changed their target and charged towards Gu Qinghan and his group!

"Quick, get out of the way!"

The man let out a somewhat desperate warning, but he could only watch helplessly as four Red Armored Beetle Beasts slammed into the group of people.

But the expected tragedy did not occur.

He only saw the man and woman leading the group retreat a few steps, and then ten black armored figures suddenly rushed out.

The black armored figures' burst speed was slightly faster than that of the Red Armored Beetle Beasts, and each held a battle-axe, chopping down fiercely.

Both the black armored figures and the Red Armored Beetle Beasts flew backward, but in the next second, the black armored figures burst forward again.

This time, two of the four Red Armored Beetle Beasts died instantly.

The remaining two Red Armored Beetle Beasts were quickly dealt with by Gu Qinghan's skeletons, and then Gu Qinghan turned his gaze to the sharp-chinned, monkey-faced man beside him.

"Holy crap, sorry, brother, I really didn't know anyone was here, good thing you're okay."

After a brief moment of surprise, the sharp-chinned, monkey-faced man immediately patted his chest as if granted a great pardon.

Then, he seemed to still feel a bit bad and fumbled in his pocket.

A few seconds later, he pulled out a crumpled pack of cigarettes and offered one to Gu Qinghan:

"I'm really sorry, brother, please have a cigarette to calm your nerves!"

Gu Qinghan could clearly see a flicker of pain in the man's eyes as he took out the cigarette.

The anger in his heart subsided somewhat, but he finally spoke:

"I don't smoke, thank you. And I want to know why you're luring these monsters to wander around here."

The man paused, put away the cigarette, and retorted:

"Brother, you're not from around here, are you? No wonder, I thought you looked unfamiliar."

Then, he looked around and reminded Gu Qinghan:

"This isn't the place to talk, brother. You should put away the insect meat first, and then we can find a secluded spot to chat."

Gu Qinghan was a bit puzzled:

"What's wrong? Can't we talk here?"

"This is that Bastard's territory. If we stay here too long, his subordinates might notice us.

Oh, I'm talking about a grandson named Wang. He bullies men and women and commits all sorts of evil. I just wanted to disgust him by luring the insects over."

Gu Qinghan recalled the middle-aged uncle's expression earlier, thought about it, and then nodded.

Anyway, the other party was alone, and his profession seemed to lean towards speed and agility, so Gu Qinghan wasn't afraid of him playing any tricks.

Just a few minutes after they left, a team of Professionals passed by with weapons.

"There are four insect corpses here! The insect meat has been taken. Someone is stealing things on our territory!"

The leading man suddenly said to those behind him, while scanning the surroundings.

There was no one, and not many traces of battle.

He pondered for a moment and corrected his statement:

"It should be those despicable people who killed a few insects and deliberately came to disgust us. The battlefield isn't here."

They were Wang Haoming's subordinates, and also the strongest group of people in this area, with an average level of 7.

Four insects would take them half a day to kill.

There were almost no traces of battle here, unless someone could instantly kill these insects.

Is that possible? No, it's not!

..."Holy crap, brother, you scared me to death just now. Your friends behind you are really fierce!"

Inside a mala tang restaurant with its door already broken open, Gu Qinghan looked at the incessantly chattering man in front of him and immediately felt a headache.

This guy really was a chatterbox!

"Brother Hao Zhi, you're off topic again."

In his helplessness, Gu Qinghan could only speak up to remind him.

From their brief chat earlier, he learned that the man opposite him was named Hao Zhi.

He originally ran a mala tang restaurant near this commercial district, but after the game began, he acquired a rare profession.

This profession was called Scout. Initially, it had no combat skills, but its speed and agility were two streets ahead of others.

Originally, many people on this street spontaneously organized to fight against zombies and other monsters.

But within a few days, this organization changed.

A guy named Wang Haoming, relying on the powerful combat strength of his profession, gathered a group of similarly powerful Professionals and began to act as their boss.

They cleared the zombies in Wanteng Plaza, turned it into their stronghold, and demarcated a territory.

At the same time, while clearing the surrounding monsters, they also demanded that people near this commercial district pay protection fees every two days.

The protection fees could be food, equipment, or other items, but they had to be recognized by them.

Some time ago, someone wanted to drive away from here, but found that all usable vehicles around had been collected by Wang Haoming.

So, these people could only return dejectedly.

"Ah, I haven't talked to anyone for days, I'm so stifled, brother!"

Hao Zhi said with a mournful face, gently pinching out his half-smoked cigarette and putting it back into the cigarette case.

He glanced at Chen Yuting, who was sitting obediently beside him, and suddenly grinned at Gu Qinghan:

"But brother, you're lucky you met me, otherwise your little girlfriend would probably be in trouble."

Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched. It seemed everyone thought they were a couple.

However, he was a little curious:

"What's wrong? Is that guy a pervert?"

Although Chen Yuting wasn't wearing makeup, her bare face was also extremely beautiful.

If it were before the apocalypse, if she started a live stream, she would probably quickly become the prototype of the 'white moonlight' in countless people's hearts.

Hao Zhi nodded, then said with a serious expression:

"Not just a pervert, this guy is also a psychopath. If it's a single beauty, it's fine, but he's obsessed with women who have male companions!"

At this point, he pointed to a noodle shop across the street and said with some lingering fear:

"The owner and his wife of that noodle shop across the street are twenty years older than Wang Haoming, but that guy forcibly... did that to the owner's wife in front of her husband!"

"Holy cow, I only heard about such people online before, I didn't expect them to actually exist!"

Gu Qinghan also frowned deeply. This was no longer just perversion, but pathology.

Hao Zhi nodded, agreeing deeply:

"Yeah, many people don't join him because they're afraid their own family members will follow suit.

Moreover, this guy's methods are particularly ruthless.

Disobedient people are directly crippled, and those who perform well are genuinely rewarded, so his subordinates really work hard."

Gu Qinghan was somewhat moved by these words. In such a chaotic world, it was easiest for heroes to rise.

He thought for a moment and asked the question he most wanted to know:

"Brother Hao Zhi, what do you think the success rate would be if I went to trade a car with him?"

Hao Zhi looked at Gu Qinghan and said without hesitation:

"No exaggeration, it's impossible."
