Each of the black silhouette's words was like a needle, piercing into Yang Shuo's heart. Even in his consciousness, a red glow appeared in Yang Shuo's eyes. He seemed to be thinking about something.
After this, the black silhouette added fuel to the fire in Yang Shuo's boiling pot, saying calmly, 'If you reject my suggestion, I'll choose another person to take your place. As for whether you'll be able to survive this chaos, it'll depend on your luck. That's right, other than taking care of yourself, you'll also need to take care of your younger sister.'
The black silhouette's words caused Yang Shuo's pupils to contract into a thin line. He could give up on anyone, except for Nono. Compared to Nono, whom he had depended on for survival, the favor he owed the Grand Commander was nothing.
Sometimes, making decisions that one had no other choice might be the price to pay for growing up.
Thinking of this, Yang Shuo clenched his fists tightly and said, 'Alright, I can promise you that if I have the ability, I'll help you kill the Grand Commander. However, there's one thing I want to know. Who are you? What is your motive for doing all this?'
"Who am I?"
Hearing Yang Shuo's question, the black silhouette suddenly laughed. Then, the layers of black fog that were blocking his view slowly dissipated like melting snow. Then, a thin figure appeared before him.
Just like what Yang Shuo had seen earlier, there were many monsters around the man. These monsters had distorted appearances and each of them had a terrifying aura. The only figure that looked normal was a young lady.
However, even though she was standing with so many terrifying monsters, there was no hint of fear on her face. Instead, she was looking at Yang Shuo with great curiosity. No matter how Yang Shuo looked at her, the young lady was clearly not an ordinary character.
"Who are you?"
Yang Shuo mumbled to himself, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Who am I?"
The black silhouette grinned. There was a special aura on him that seemed to be able to make everyone submit to him. When Yang Shuo first saw him, he was not afraid. Instead, he wanted to kneel down and worship him as his master.
Just how powerful was the other party?
Yang Shuo was not an idiot who did not know anything. He lived in the slums, so he knew how to observe people's expressions. He had seen professionals before, even those who belonged to the upper echelons. However, compared to the aura of this man in front of him, it was like a small child meeting a great magician. There was no comparison at all.
Yang Shuo even thought of a saying. How could a firefly dare to compete with the sun and the moon? This was the feeling that the other party gave him. The other party's strength had already surpassed his imagination. A thought uncontrollably appeared in the depths of Yang Shuo's mind. The other party was an existence that was several times stronger than the Grand Commander.
Chen Feng stared at Yang Shuo and said calmly, "I'm the leader of Order, located thousands of kilometers away. The population there has already exceeded three million, which is six times the population of this place. Furthermore, I can casually send out one of my subordinates and they can personally kill your Great Commander."
Yang Shuo did not think that the other party was exaggerating at all, because looking at the appearance of the monsters behind the other party, he knew that the other party was not flattering him.
However …
Seeing that the other party had finally appeared and said such a sentence to him, Yang Shuo also summoned a trace of courage and said calmly, "Then why don't you take over this place yourself? Why do you rely on my hand to eliminate the Great Commander?"
Chen Feng's face turned cold, "This is not something you should know!"
The apocalypse was ruthless, and there was no mercy to speak of.
Especially after experiencing the trip to the Abyss, Chen Feng understood the meaning of the phrase 'strength is respected'. If he was strong enough, there was no need for him to run away from Nara. Not only that, he could also devour the divinity in the other party's body to strengthen himself.
However, it was because he was too weak that he was suppressed by Nara all the way. Even Xu Hongzhuang was seriously injured and was still in a coma.
Although Xu Hongzhuang had comprehended a realm at the last moment and had broken through a small realm that she had dreamed of in one go, the price she had paid was too great. A moment of carelessness could have led to her death.
From that moment on, Chen Feng knew that the relatively easy life of the post-apocalyptic era had smoothed out his sharp edges, causing him to become somewhat irresolute and indecisive.
Before his rebirth, Chen Feng had been living in an abyss of suffering. Naturally, he was aware of how difficult it was to survive. Hence, at that time, he was akin to a true beast, fighting against his enemies at all times. However, it was different now. After several years of hard work, he had everything he had now.
However, it was precisely because of this that Chen Feng was like a tiger in a cage. His claws and fangs had not been used for a long time, and he had even forgotten that he was the king of the forest, and that he was living in a dangerous jungle.
Chen Feng needed power. He craved power. As such, he needed to increase the number of believers he needed to subdue. Devil City believed that they were in an alliance with Order. However, little did they know that a long time ago, during their exploration, Order had already discovered traces of Devil City.
However, the distance between the two sides was too far. Even if they conquered it, it would be a waste of manpower and resources, and the gains would not make up for the losses.
However, it was different now. Chen Feng wanted to increase the number of believers, so he naturally cast his eyes on this land. After a few years of development, there was a ruler here, a ruler called the Great Commander.
Although the Great Commander was weaker than himself, it was undeniable that some of the good governance of the Great Commander had attracted the love and respect of many people.
Under such circumstances, even if Chen Feng seized this place, it would take a long time for those people to forget the past, and even bear a deep hatred for him forever.
Under such circumstances, even if he accepted them as believers, it would be completely meaningless. This was because the power of faith was not pure, and it would not be able to condense divinity, allowing him to break through the Epic rank and reach the Mythical rank.
Therefore, Chen Feng needed a black hand to do this for him. Lu Wei and Wei Xun were not suitable, because they were both from Order. Therefore, he needed to find a suitable candidate in Devil Town.
Yang Shuo could not be said to be lucky or unlucky. While Yang Shuo was mourning, he was sensed by the patrolling Chen Feng, and then mysteriously gave him a part of his power, allowing him to taste the sweetness and become a Professional that he yearned for day and night.
The Great Commander had no enmity with him, so he might feel guilty for plotting against him like this, but this was the law of the jungle.
The apocalypse was a dark forest, and every force was a hunter with a gun. They moved stealthily in the forest like ghosts, gently pushing aside the branches that blocked their way. They tried their best not to make any sound with their footsteps, and even their breathing had to be done carefully.
He had to be careful, because there were hunters everywhere in the forest like him. If he discovered another life form, there was only one thing he could do: shoot and destroy it. In this forest, others were hell, and they were an eternal threat. Any life form that exposed their existence would be quickly destroyed.
As far as Chen Feng was concerned, the so-called Grand Commander was a member of this Dark Forest.
It was a pity that in this game of hunter and prey, Chen Feng was the hunter, and the Great Commander was the prey.
Yang Shuo clenched his fists. He knew that he had no choice now, so he did not say anything more. Instead, he said in a deep voice, "Sir, I've thought about it. I … am willing to do it!"
