114: Chapter 114. Inferior people should have the awareness of inferior people!

Just half an hour later.

The sound of gunfire and artillery ceased completely. This main stronghold of the Management Committee was fully taken over by the Red Wolf Guild.

Wang Jianguo slumped in the muddy water, staring blankly at the surrounding ruins, his mind a complete void.

The guard unit he had been so proud of was a complete joke in the face of that invulnerable Red Wolf Tank.

All the heavy firepower hitting the Crimson Armor didn't even leave a white scratch.

But what caused Wang Jianguo's ultimate breakdown wasn't that unreasonably powerful tank.

It was the massive army of two hundred thousand behind the tank!

He racked his brain but couldn't understand how these guys had developed to such an extent in the apocalypse.

He had bled hundreds of thousands of civilians dry in the entire Super C3 District just to barely scrape together an elite guard unit of thirty thousand.

But these thugs in red in front of him?

A full two hundred thousand people!

Not only did they have an absolute advantage in numbers, but even the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies were two whole tiers higher than those of the Management Committee's elites!

Two whole tiers!!

How could they fight this?!

Besides that terrifying firepower, the terrifying execution of this group made him doubt his very existence...

While the warriors of the Blade Group were still exchanging fire and fighting for their lives against the guards,

The Logistics Team behind them was already carrying gas welders and electric saws, beginning to dismantle the metal hedgehogs on the defensive line right then and there!

The men were responsible for suppressive fire, the women were responsible for hauling supplies, and even the elderly women were skillfully dismantling the enemies' tires.

Men, women, young, and old—the division of labor was clear, and everyone performed their duties.

What kind of damn mobilization and organizational capability was this?!

Wang Jianguo was completely demoralized. He even felt that these people weren't survivors at all, but a swarm of locusts in human skin!

"Move! Don't dawdle!"

A rough shout interrupted Wang Jianguo's thoughts.

Two fierce Red Wolf warriors stepped forward and dragged Wang Jianguo and over a dozen richly dressed high-ranking officials of the Management Committee to the center of the square like dead dogs.

"Kneel!"

As the rifle butts slammed down,

This group of privileged officials, who usually threw their weight around, knelt in a row before the massive Red Wolf Tank.

The square was surrounded by ring after ring of guild members wearing red alloy armor.

Hundreds of dark muzzles pointed coldly at their heads.

The scene was deathly silent, save for the chattering of teeth from several officials who were terrified.

*Click.*

Just then, the top hatch of the Red Wolf Tank slowly opened.

Lu Yuan propped himself up with one hand and jumped down from the tank with agile movements.

Under the protection of the Blade Group elites, Lu Yuan and Lin Zihao walked leisurely toward the group of officials.

Lu Yuan looked down at the group, swept his gaze over them, and spoke coldly: "Who's in charge?"

Wang Jianguo's whole body trembled violently.

But he was an old fox used to playing power politics after all. He forced down the fear in his heart and steeled himself to look up.

"I... I am the top leader of the Management Committee—Wang Jianguo."

After a brief moment of panic,

Wang Jianguo took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He was an old fox seasoned in officialdom; even with dark muzzles pointed at his head, he instinctively straightened his back.

He even reached out to straighten his expensive suit, which was already covered in mud and water.

"My friend."

Wang Jianguo adopted a meaningful tone, putting on his usual air of a superior.

"Since we are all people of the Dragon Country, we should help each other even more in this apocalypse."

"If your guild went to such lengths just for wealth, there's really no need to make such a scene."

"If you need supplies, we in the Management Committee are very willing to share with you. We can totally sit down and talk!"

Seeing Lu Yuan's expressionless face, Wang Jianguo thought his rhetoric was working, and his confidence grew by another thirty percent.

He cleared his throat and continued with the official jargon he was best at.

"We established a stronghold here to unite all the forces that can be united and rebuild the order of human civilization!"

"By forcibly attacking us like this, you are destroying the great situation of stability and unity!"

"Friend, you are committing a crime!"

Hearing these high-sounding words, Lin Zihao, who was standing to the side, rolled his eyes grandly, barely holding back the urge to kick him.

Lu Yuan was directly laughed into anger.

"Rebuild human civilization?"

Lu Yuan stared at him coldly, his voice carrying a bone-chilling frost.

"Or rebuild the privileges of you parasites?!"

"I see those ordinary players on the outskirts of your stronghold; every one of them is skin and bones. Even the dogs in my Red Wolf Guild eat better than they do!"

"And you?"

"Wearing expensive suits, living in luxury RVs made of Super Alloy, throwing your weight around here!"

"Is this your so-called protection?"

"Is this the order of human civilization you speak of?!"

The lies were ruthlessly exposed to his face.

But on Wang Jianguo's face, there wasn't even a shred of guilt.

Instead, he puffed out his chest, putting on an air of righteousness and endurance for the sake of the greater good.

"My friend, your thinking is too narrow!"

Wang Jianguo retorted loudly, even carrying a hint of disappointment as if he were trying to correct a misguided youth.

"Those who achieve great things do not sweat the small stuff!"

"To rebuild civilization, someone must always make sacrifices to ensure the survival of more people!"

"Although those civilians on the outskirts suffer a little, they have made an indelible contribution to the continuation of all mankind. That is their honor!"

"Without the coordination and protection of our Management Committee, with the abilities of those useless people, they would have been eaten by the monsters outside until not even bone fragments remained!"

Holy shit!

This level of shamelessness left the Red Wolf Guild members present completely stunned.

"I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone describe sucking the marrow from someone's bones with such self-righteousness!"

Lu Yuan looked at this old fox, whose mouth was full of benevolence and morality, and was completely laughed into anger.

Reasoning with an old bastard who was rotten to the core was a pure waste of breath.

Only the truth could make them behave!

Lu Yuan didn't bother with more nonsense and was about to give the order to take action.

Wang Wanru, who was kneeling in the corner, jumped up as if her tail had been stepped on after hearing Lu Yuan's words.

With her face covered in dust, she pointed venomously at Lu Yuan's nose and cursed hysterically.

"Stop acting like a hypocritical good person here!"

"You think you're such a good thing?"

"You gathered these two hundred thousand people—is what you're doing any different from us?!"

Wang Wanru's eyes were bloodshot, her face full of self-righteousness and arrogance.

"Aren't you also using these hundreds of thousands of people as your cannon fodder? Aren't you also doing it to enjoy the thrill of being a local tyrant?!"

"You came to rob us, but in the end, isn't it just to satisfy your own selfish desires!"

"Those useless people on the outskirts are inferior people to begin with!"

"Inferior people should know their place!"

"We're sucking their marrow?! The distribution of wealth in this world was never fair to begin with!"

"Even if we gave our supplies to those pathetic inferior people, they would only squander them like idiots!"

"Wealth only has the greatest value when it's in the hands of elites like us!"

"What's wrong with having them contribute a little labor?"

"Being able to serve us is their honor!"

As soon as these words were spoken.

In the square.

Everything instantly fell into a deathly silence.
