Chapter 293: 171 Stirring the water to catch fish (Second Update)_2 Chapter 293: 171 Stirring the water to catch fish (Second Update)_2 Then he took a deep breath and announced loudly, “So now I ask you, are you willing to follow ?”
As soon as his words fell, the shill he had arranged shouted, “Willing! Whatever big brother says, we’ll do!”
Following that, the other shills echoed, “We’ll listen to big brother!”
“Listen to big brother!”
“Listen to big brother!”
Gradually, everyone spoke in unison, even the one who had been advising earlier felt that Fatso was right, and they were worrying unnecessarily.
There were not only these few who wanted to take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters for their own benefit.
Inside the Safe Zone, there were rcenary teams of various sizes, apart from those who went out to combat the zombies, almost everyone who stayed behind had their own sches.
Especially those large rcenary teams, they were strong, but had been severely suppressed by the military and could never find a chance to overturn the situation. This ti, when the zombies attacked the city, about half of the military personnel went out to combat the zombies, leaving behind, besides a few capable ones, mostly ordinary civilian staff.
How could these ambitious people let go of such a rare opportunity?
Many shared the sa thoughts as Fatso, believing that the zombies definitely wouldn’t be able to breach the defenses, considering so many had gone out to resist, and their strength was formidable. No matter which side won, the remaining side would definitely suffer heavy losses, which they could easily take advantage of.
Who wouldn’t be tempted by such a perfect opportunity?
Moreover, these rcenary teams didn’t only aim to seize control of the Safe Zone, but also targeted the resources of others.
Among them, so had set their sights on the Fang Family.
Many knew of the Fang Family’s status before the apocalypse, and a few among them knew that the Fang Family had acquired a large stock of supplies before the apocalypse.
The whereabouts of those supplies were unknown, and naturally, the most likely place was the villa where the Fang Family lived.
Therefore, so seized the night cover and stealthily headed to the Fang Family’s residence, prepared to find those supplies during the chaos.
There were quite a few eyeing the Fang Family, but the ones who actually acted were only two groups of people, plus Fang ngyao.
These highly inford rcenary teams knew that Fang Yuxin had attained Wood Elent Level 2 and truly didn’t want to offend her. The two groups that took action did so only harboring a slim hope of success.
Fang ngyao did not join the others. After Qiu Yiming left with his group, she headed to the Fang Family residence earlier than those two groups. Her visit was not just for the Fang Family’s supplies, but for the potential ‘Personal Space’ that might exist.
Her days had been unsatisfactory; she had t Zheng Tianhe earlier and tried to use him to deal with Fang Yuxin. To persuade him, she even offered a Detoxification Capsule.
However, although Zheng Tianhe had initially agreed amiably, he changed his tune and started giving excuses about ‘the timing not being right’!
Humph! She wasn’t a fool who knew nothing! Wasn’t Zheng Tianhe just intimidated by a warning from the military brass?
Such a poor excuse for a man—always more trouble than he’s worth!
Frustratingly, Qiu Yiming seed to sense sothing and closely monitored her, and with the military brass indirectly protecting Fang Yuxin, she didn’t want to risk inflaming the situation and hadn’t been able to make a move against Fang Yuxin.
Fortunately, fate finally intervened, granting her such an opportunity!
The streetlights were dim, only lighting up from afar, casting even more shadows. She hurried towards the Fang residence, and quickly, she arrived.
The Fang family’s entire villa was covered by climbing ivy, and the courtyard was filled with a variety of vegetables and fruits. There were no streetlights nearby, and the lighting was extrely dim, making it impossible to see the items in the courtyard, only their vague outlines.
Those outlines cast sinister shadows, giving off an ominous feeling as if danger lurked in every leaf.
Fang ngyao scoffed at this thought, then she grabbed the lock on the gate. The next mont, lightning appeared in her palm and directly destroyed the lock.
Looking at her handiwork, she smirked, tossed the lock aside, and pushed open the gate to walk in. However, as she stepped into the courtyard, the smile on her face froze.
She stared in astonishnt at what lay before her and said in a low voice, “What is going on? Fang Yuxin, you really know how to play tricks! Don’t think these petty sches can stop !”
After speaking, she lifted her right hand, and suddenly a ball of fla appeared in her palm. The fla quickly expanded into a fire circle with a diater of about two ters, enveloping her in protection.
The flas burned silently, and the surroundings remained eerily quiet without any change.
Fang ngyao’s expression gradually turned sour as she watched the scene. Clenching her teeth, she grabbed the fire circle. In the next mont, the circle contracted instantly, transforming into a flaming Fire Whip in her hand. She gripped the handle of the whip and lashed it forcefully towards the distance.
“Snap!”
“Boom!”
The spot struck by the Fire Whip imdiately erupted in flas.
Fang ngyao smirked proudly, tightened her grip on the whip, and prepared to strike again. However, her smile stiffened on her face.
The burning flas grew smaller and eventually extinguished.
Fang ngyao then realized this was not an easy fight and her brows furrowed tightly.
Just then, she suddenly heard footsteps coming from afar!
