Post-apocalyptic World: Stockpile Ten Billion Supplies at the Beginning

Chapter 98

Chapter 98

Chen Luo covered his face in disbelief. Law King, did you really have to urinate in public like that? Youve completely embarrassed me. Its like catching a cold in broad daylight.

When Thunderbolt King urinated, Jin Tao was scared to the point that he peed his pants a well. He was utterly defeated by a dog.

Meanwhile, As they ran for their lives, the thunderbolt Kings action lingered in Jin Taos mind, adding to his humiliation. He collapsed to the ground, his pants soaked.

When you hold the power of life and death over others, its exhilarating. Now, he felt an icy chill throughout his body, his heart pounding, and his legs as unsteady as jelly. He couldnt even manage to stand up.

His mouth was the only part of his body that still obeyed him. Jin Tao sobbed bitterly, pleading with Chen Luo, Big brother, spare my life. Ill do anything.

Zhao Hai shook his head as he looked at him. To him, there was little difference between Jin Tao and the people his own subordinates had caught because they couldnt repay their debts.

At the same time, Zhao Hai was relieved that he had made a wise choice and didnt antagonize Chen Luo too much. Otherwise, just dealing with that black dogs tugging tactics would have given him a headache.

However, Zhao Hai still felt a bit uneasy, unsure of how Chen Luo would treat him.

Chen Luo glanced at Jin Tao and said, Dont worry, I wont kill you.

Chen Luo planned to exploit a little loophole: the undead creatures summoned by Jin Tao could also yield crystals, but only if they were above Level 3. Anything below that wouldnt drop crystals. When Jin Tao upgraded to Level 3, he should be able to summon a Level 4 undead creature, albeit with some difficulty.

This was the advantage of summoners they could easily have higher-level minions when they were lower-level themselves. However, as they progressed to higher levels, it became more challenging. For instance, a King-level summoner could only summon a minion that surpassed King-level if they reached the peak of the King level. The drawback was evident too: after summoning, their own abilities were significantly diminished, and summoners had weaker physical attributes compared to their counterparts at the same level, like elemental users.

Killing the summoner would naturally make the summoned creatures disappear as well. Typically, summoners would have several minions summoned, with most of them used for combat while leaving one or two to protect themselves. In one-on-one situations, it was challenging for enemies to approach summoners, and in group fights, they had their teammates for protection. Trying to take down a summoner was quite difficult.

However, with Chen Luo possessing Void Walk, the situation was different. Chen Luo was like the father of all summoners. If Jin Tao summoned a Level 4 undead creature, Chen Luo would gain Level 4 crystals. But this bug couldnt be exploited indefinitely. It had limitations in terms of quantity and time. No matter how much you cheated, it wouldnt work once the limit was reached, and summoners would die instantly. It seemed like there were some rules beyond human control.

In a previous life, a Level 10 summoner didnt believe in such rules and tried to exploit the bug with a friend. Well, he peacefully departed this world. But what did this have to do with Chen Luo? When the time came, it would be Jin Tao who met his end.

Upon hearing Chen Luos words about not killing him, Jin Tao was stunned for a moment and then kowtowed, saying, Thank you, big brother, thank you, big brother. Youre obviously someone who keeps their word. Ill definitely obey you honestly.

Chen Luo instructed his people, Lock him in a room and treat him as a new member.

He warned Jin Tao, Young man, I have high hopes for you. Your summoning talent is impressive. I wont kill you. Youll be able to help me in the future, but if you dare to make any moves or attempt to escape, Ill break all five of your limbs.

Young man?

Jin Tao, who was in his thirties, looked at Chen Luo, who was in his early twenties, and dared not show anger or speak.

Mi Ling, upon hearing all five of your limbs, rolled her eyes, thinking Chen Luo was quite the rascal.

Chen Luo pondered for a moment and then thought better of it. He decided to break Jin Tao two legs first to prevent any escape. After all, a summoning tool like him wouldnt be affected by the lack of legs.

Dare to resist and not obey?

Continue breaking the third leg.

Chen Luo gave a few instructions to Chen Guang, who nodded in acknowledgment. The others began to collect the crystals.

Although Zhao Hai was anxious, he kept a composed demeanor and said, Brother Chen, you have quite the skill. Ive offended you in the past, so consider this my way of making amends.

Saying this, he took out a silver and delicate pistol from behind his waist.

At this point, Fang Yu and the others thought their opportunity to perform had come again and tried to stand in front of Chen Luo, but Chen Luo waved them away.

Zhao Hai extended the pistol with both hands, saying, A small gift as a sign of respect.

Chen Luo chuckled. This thing was utterly useless and posed no threat to him. He took the pistol, and in front of everyone, aimed it at his chest and fired.

Zhao Hai was horrified, wondering what had happened. Had Chen Luo lost his mind?

The others also stared in disbelief at Chen Luo. However, the subsequent scene left Zhao Hai in shock as he fell to the ground.

The bullets couldnt penetrate Chen Luos body; they stopped just outside his skin and fell to the ground, powerless.

It was summer, and Chen Luo was only wearing a shirt, so Zhao Hai was certain there was no bulletproof vest underneath.

Was this still a human being? Bullets had absolutely no effect?

The entire scene fell into silence as everyone stared at Chen Luo in disbelief.

Chen Luo had done this intentionally to intimidate Zhao Hai. Originally, he had considered aiming at his temple but thought better of it.

There was a one-in-a-hundred-thousand chance of getting a headache even if a bullet pierced his brain, but his powerful vitality would ensure he wouldnt die.

Chen Luo chuckled, Although this thing is not very useful, it looks nice. It can be a little toy.

As third-level ability users, Zhao Hai and the others had never encountered someone like Chen Luo before. They had initially thought that Jin Tao was already exceptionally strong, but now they realized he was not even in the same league as Chen Luo.

Zhao Hai was a discerning person, but someone accustomed to being the top dog might not be willing to accept a subservient position. Whether he could be recruited or not, Chen Luo didnt really care.

Having a discerning eye was one thing, but in Chen Luos organization, there was no need for someone to take the helm. So, it might be better to send Zhao Hai back and have him gather some intelligence or discover talented individuals.

Zhao Hai smiled wryly, Chen Brother, your strength has truly shattered my understanding.

Chen Luo replied, You dont know someone until youve fought with them, right? We do have areas of potential cooperation. If you come across anything interesting or discover any talented individuals, you can recommend them to me. We can exchange resources; I still have some resources here.

Chen Luo wasnt afraid of Zhao Hai secretly recruiting talented individuals because, as long as someone had the right abilities, there were no talents he couldnt acquire.

He walked past Zhao Hai and announced loudly, Is there anyone here with Light abilities, Dark abilities, Earth abilities, Nature abilities, or any other unique support abilities? We offer good conditions here, so if you want to join, you are all welcome.

Light and Dark abilities didnt need much explanation, as they were rare and valuable. Learning support abilities could be highly useful in many situations.

Nature abilities could help with farming, although it required reaching the fourth level. Still, it was good to have some pre-trained talent.

As for Earth abilities, Chen Luo planned to reinforce the area around his base. While this place wasnt his ultimate base, he would be here for some time. Currently, there were only nine Earth ability users in his base, and their levels were low. Strengthening the base with them would be challenging, so he needed more manpower.

Previously, Chen Luo had intentionally revealed his strength to recruit talent. There were some things he couldnt say directly, considering he was a leader. No need for pretentiousness, right?

Xia Haoran was taciturn, Chen Guang wasnt here, he had gone to break Jin Taos legs. Leng Chen had a keen eye and shouted, We have three square meals a day, occasional meat, excellent conditions, and strong abilities. Everyone can see that. What are you hesitating for?

Strength was the most important factor, and everyone could see that. Jin Tao and Zhao Hai combined werent a match for Chen Luo.

Believing someone could physically withstand bullets?

Not to mention that dog, oh my, it electrocuted a whole group of people. Thunder Lightning King, indeed.

Immediately, four people ran outthree with Earth abilities and one with Nature abilities. It wasnt that the others didnt want to come out, but they didnt meet the requirements.

One girl among Zhao Hais group hesitated for a moment, bit her lip, and ran out too. She had Nature abilities.

Zhao Hai was dumbfounded, but Chen Luo smiled at him, and Zhao Hai didnt dare say a word. What could he do? If he said anything against it or tried to stop her, he was afraid Chen Luo would turn on him. He didnt know Chen Luos character well enough to risk it.

Adding those from Jin Taos side, there were a total of sixteen people. Unfortunately, there were no Light or Dark abilities among them.

Someone unwillingly said, Im daring and capable. Im at the second level now. Can you accept me?

Chen Luo replied, Sure, kill ten zombies and obtain ten crystals as proof. You can join as a new member.

This frightened off some people, but others gritted their teeth, rallied their friends, and quickly went zombie hunting.

Zhao Hai looked at this situation with a bitter smile. It seemed like most of the elites had been recruited by Chen Luo. But arent you worried that some of them might have ulterior motives?

The only consolation for Zhao Hai was that his eight core brothers hadnt run away. Chen Luo gave Zhao Hai a glance. Zhao Hai was a clever person. Even if he had some discontent, he wouldnt dare to take revenge in the short term. He wouldnt dare to retaliate because his subordinates wouldnt dare either.

Zhao Hai didnt dare to stay longer. If he stayed any longer, he was afraid that all of his people would run away. Zhao Hai said, Brother Chen, in the future, if you need anything, you can come to Golden Dragon Garden to find me. I live there. If I encounter any difficulties in the future, I hope brother Chen can help as a friend.

Chen Luo smiled and replied, Sure thing.

This was a smart move. Its always better to have friends than enemies.

The Thunderbolt King had returned, but it didnt look very happy. It knew how many people it had killed5 points each, and it was only 160 points in total. Capturing Jin Tao was worth 100 points. Adding them together, it was still far from the 1500 points needed to become an Elder.

The Thunder Lightning King squinted its dog eyes as it watched Zhao Hais back. This group had quite a few members; they could potentially earn two or three hundred points. However, Chen Luo hadnt given the order.

Based on the masters personality, he probably didnt want to make a move openly. He might send out his dog assassins in secret later.

But after waiting for half a minute, the Thunderbolt King still hadnt received any signal. It looked at Chen Luo in bewilderment.

Could you please kick me, or give me a signal? Id know its time to go. If you dont kick me soon, the dog wont be able to catch up.
