The bandits and thugs all murmured. They were used to being domineering and arrogant on the ground. Had they ever been mocked like that before?
However, the brutality of the skeleton lizard a moment ago was still deeply etched in their hearts. Together with the enormous pressure from the boundless rocks outside, and seeing that neither A Boxing Champion nor Xiahou Wuxin said anything, the bandits could only remain silent and stare at the mysterious female warrior 'Zuo Jingyun' who was riding the 'earthly dragon' brutally.
Xiahou Wuxin and A Boxing Champion looked at each other and had to say, "I am Xiahou Wuxin, the leader of Liberty City. In any case, I must thank you for saving my life, Sister Zuo."
"Of course, I know that you are the leader of Liberty City and the lackey of Manjusaka, the City in the Sky."
Intense mockery beamed out of Zuo Jingyun's eyes. She sneered and said, "So many people have been killed in the game of the angels because of Liberty City's ending today. Don't you deserve a great 'contribution', too?"
"What!"
After hearing that, a lot of thugs and bandits jumped to their feet. Their eyes of surprise and fury turned into sharp blades that stabbed at Xiahou Wuxin brutally. They all exclaimed, "Leader Xiahou, did you know that the City in the Sky would throw those weird demon beasts down?"
"What is going on exactly? Xiahou Wuxin, you have to explain everything today!"
"Damn it. Is this a trap? Why? Why do you have to kill us? We have always been loyal to the City in the Sky! "
Xiahou Wuxin did not expect that the tough and shrewd woman would reveal his trump card so ruthlessly. He was also surprised that Zuo Jingyun knew so much about the truth. He was stunned for a moment and lost for words.
Li Yao thought of something. Although it was not what he expected, he already vaguely knew the woman's identity.
The Fist King glanced at the people behind him and asked them to shut up with his sharp eyes. Then, he took over the conversation and said, "I am 'Fist King' Lei Zonglie, not a lackey of 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'. I am qualified to ask who you are, and why have you saved us?"
It was not until then that the bandits who were slow realized that the soul of 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie was lurking inside the mysterious and tough iron body.
He was lucky enough to survive the crash of "Manjusaka, the City in the Sky" with "Great Iron City". He truly deserved the title of the best expert in the Land of Sins!
Zuo Jingyun's attitude toward A Boxing Champion was obviously better. Perhaps because she had seen the scene where A Boxing Champion charged at the City in the Sky through secret channels, she felt that he was a friend of hers. Lowering her voice, she said, "The entire Land of Sins is a nightmare. We are the people who woke up from the nightmare earlier than you. That's all."
"Therefore," the Fist King said coldly, "you are also very clear that the so-called Land of Sins is essentially an enormous laboratory, and we are all chess pieces, props, playthings, and test subjects for 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky'?"
Zuo Jingyun was slightly surprised. She nodded and said, "A Boxing Champion is indeed A Boxing Champion. You are indeed different from the regular bandits of the Land of Sins. It is certainly worth it to sacrifice those mobsters just to save you."
The bandits and thugs naturally heard the sarcasm in the woman's words. However, their attention was all attracted by the words' nightmare 'and' laboratory 'in their conversation, and they had no time to care about anything else. "What do you mean? What are you talking about?"
"In fact, you have always understood that our world is not normal, haven't you?"
Zuo Jingyun sneered. "After hundreds of years of recovery, the desolate land is still full of devastation, pollution, and radiation. There are also the rescue assets that are projected from the sky regularly with more weapons than food. There are also the 'old grandpas' who contain mysterious strength but have lost all their memories, and the supplementary population.
"If it is to destroy us, all the sinners in the Land of Sins will starve if no assets are delivered for a few years.
"If it is to save us, they can give us more food, help us figure out a way to clean the land and restore the vitality, or even open the sky and help us escape to the depths of the sea of stars.
"They neither destroy nor save us, but they go through all the trouble to maintain the Land of Sins in a storm of blood where the strong prey on the weak, making everybody in the Land of Sins metamorphose into … animals in human skin like you.
"Have you really never considered the reason behind everything? What do the sinners in the Land of Sins mean exactly in the eyes of the high and mighty angels? Do they have more malicious purposes than 'destruction' by raising us in such a way?
"No, I'm afraid that every one of you has thought about it before, and you have more or less found the answer. However, the 'brawny men' and 'thugs' who seem to be fearless of death are actually nothing more than cowardly cowards. You will be satisfied as long as you can struggle to survive. You do not have the courage to open your eyes and face the miserable truth, much less fight against the enemy that you absolutely cannot defeat."
Her words rendered a lot of the bandits speechless. They lowered their heads deeply.
Some of them even slapped the table and rose up in fury. "What do you mean? Speak clearly. Don't think that you are qualified to lecture us just because you saved my life!"
"Oh? You are still angry? Very good. It proves that you still have some guts in your heart."
Zuo Jingyun put her artificial arm behind her back and said expressionlessly, "As for the so-called truth, as' A Boxing Champion 'Lei Zonglie said just now, everybody in the Land of Sins, including your ancestors and your descendants, is a' test subject 'and' game prop 'that the angels, or the Immortal Cultivators, have raised here. The angels use you to test the latest magical equipment and techniques. Of course, there are also the weapon-level mutated beasts such as the' skeleton lizards'. Occasionally, they even arrive at the Land of Sins in person to reap your lives as a thrilling game.
"Do you know the concept of 'zoo'? If you don't, you must know about 'colosseums' and 'slave markets', right? For the angels, the entire Land of Sins is an enormous colosseum and slave market. We are all their creations that they can manipulate, savage, and crush at their will. "
All the bandits fell silent.
The bandits who were infuriated a moment ago turned their fury into ice that hung on their faces. Their eyes and lips were dangling and cramping nonstop.
"Well … well … well …"
Hissing sounds were echoing from their throats, like drunkards who were mired in a swirl and finally woke up the moment before they were swallowed by the swirl. They recognized their desperate end.
Zuo Jingyun smiled. "If you think that I am exaggerating, I believe that 'A Boxing Champion' Lei Zonglie and 'Leader of Liberty City' Xiahou Wuxin can certainly tell you more things from different perspectives. However, I believe that most of you have sensed it a long time ago, haven't you? However, what can you do even if you know it? You can only live a drunken life in the middle of gambling and fighting. You simply do not have the courage to face such a truth. "
A lot of people took a deep breath, as if all the bones inside their body had been blown into dust. As they exhaled, the mud seemed to have collapsed, too.
With disgust on her face, Zuo Jingyun sniffed. "I knew that the tough guys who bully the weak and fear the strong would be so useless. If it were up to me, I would never have crawled to the surface to rescue you at the risk of being discovered and tracked. However, this is the order of the organization, and there's nothing I can do. So, don't think that you are important. In my eyes, you are all a bunch of garbage!"
"Organization?"
In A Boxing Champion's real logic circuits, there was no option of 'fury'. He continued asking calmly, "What organization?"
Zuo Jingyun's evaluation of A Boxing Champion was higher than before. She briefly replied, "Starlight."
"Ah!"
Han Te and Coloured Glaze could not help but exclaim in excitement.
Over the past two days, they had heard a lot about Starlight and the Cultivators. They were full of curiosity about the mysterious organization.
They did not expect that Starlight still existed and boasted such a powerful 'earthly dragon' that was still resisting. Their eyes glowed, and they were full of affection and respect for Zuo Jingyun.
Zuo Jingyun glanced at them, only to be slightly dazed. She did not expect that there would be two good-looking kids among the hideous, dominating bandits. It was especially so for Coloured Glaze, whose innocence and stubbornness were mixed with brightness, which was entirely different from the bloodthirsty bandits.
Slightly frowning, Zuo Jingyun could not figure out how the two misfits had survived to this day in the gory war.
Li Yao observed the cabin with great interest. Judging from the technology and the consumption of resources to produce the super penetrator, 'earthly dragon', the scale of Starlight was far beyond his imagination. It was truly … a bit weird!
"We are the real survivors of 'Judgment Day' in the past. We know very well that 'Judgment Day' was not a civil war of the Martial Meritocrats Sector but a destructive attack launched by the Immortal Cultivators against the Cultivators of the Martial Meritocrats Sector."
Zuo Jingyun held her head high and said, "Our ancestors began to resist the evil reign of 'Manjusaka, the City in the Sky' hundreds of years ago. Some of the resisters even escaped before the sky was completely sealed and dealt with the enemy in the boundless sea of stars.
"As for the resistors who stayed on the planet, in order to avoid the ubiquitous surveillance and the orbital bombardment, we marched to the underground world. The thousands of underground city ruins left by the Martial Meritocrats Civilization and the forsaken mines a hundred times more were our battlefields. Riding the 'earthly dragons', we rampaged deep below the ground and attacked everywhere. To this day, even the angels — or the Immortal Cultivators — are unable to completely annihilate us!
