Affected by the witch's nightmare, Lu Gang's mind was preoccupied with women, and he didn't even notice Sun Yuan rushing over.
Of course, even if he had noticed, it wouldn't have mattered, because the gap in their combat abilities was too great.
Sun Yuan rushed to Lu Gang's side, stood still, twisted his waist, and swung the bat!
Bang!
Lu Gang's head was smashed in.
The headless corpse fell to the ground.
The other six people, upon seeing this, shuddered violently. One middle-aged man, who was particularly timid, even fell to his knees with a thud.
"You... take me to this guy's lair!"
Sun Yuan pointed at the high school student.
The high school student was very obedient.
Duan Guangping's lair was five subway carriages parked in a tunnel, a fifteen-minute walk west from this subway station.
As Sun Yuan stepped onto the carriage, he couldn't help but frown.
A young man was tied up with his hands bound, hanging from a handrail. His nose was bruised, his face swollen, and there was blood at the corner of his mouth, clearly having been beaten severely.
"What's going on?"
Sun Yuan asked.
The high school student quickly explained.
This young man was named Wei Dongmai, an employee of Ele.me, a food delivery service. He refused to be oppressed and enslaved by Duan Guangping and wanted to resist, but was beaten and used as an example to warn others.
"Untie him!"
Sun Yuan ordered.
The high school student immediately complied. In fact, he admired Wei Dongmai, who didn't beg for mercy even after being beaten so badly.
Sun Yuan took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, and helped Wei Dongmai drink it.
"Don't... don't waste it!"
Wei Dongmai turned his head away from the bottle: "I won't survive, save the water for someone who needs it!"
"Do you regret it?"
Sun Yuan was curious.
"I regret not exercising more often. If I had, I would have beaten that beggar to death."
Wei Dongmai chuckled: "I was born a man and will die a man. I won't be anyone's dog!"
The high school student felt a bit awkward upon hearing this.
"I can heal you, just bear with it!"
Sun Yuan took out the Love Shock Device, pressed it against Wei Dongmai's swollen arm, and pressed the switch.
Zap!
Electricity surged, and Wei Dongmai immediately began to tremble all over, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.
Because Wei Dongmai's injuries were severe, the electric shock lasted longer to ensure a better healing effect.
After a minute, Wei Dongmai, drenched in sweat, found that the redness, swelling, and bruising on his broken arm had disappeared, and the bone had been reset, allowing him to move it.
"This... this is too amazing!"
The high school student was amazed.
It usually takes a hundred days to heal broken bones, but Wei Dongmai's bones were reset after just a few seconds with the shock device.
"Friend, what's your name?"
Wei Dongmai looked at Sun Yuan, his expression conflicted: "This... treatment must be expensive, right? I... I don't have any money!"
"I won't charge you!"
Sun Yuan smiled slightly and began to treat Wei Dongmai's other arm.
"I'll work for you to repay your kindness."
Wei Dongmai made his decision: "My mother said that in a big city, one must stand straight and act right. If you receive someone's kindness, you must repay it immediately. You healed my hands and feet and saved my life, so I'll work for you for one or two years!"
"But I won't do anything that goes against my principles!"
Wei Dongmai added.
"I said I won't charge you."
Sun Yuan could see that this was a principled and upright young man: "How old are you?"
"Twenty-five!"
Wei Dongmai's face was gloomy when he mentioned his age, as he felt ashamed for being a failure at this age, with no money and no wife.
"If you release him, Duan Guangping will kill you when he returns."
A middle-aged woman, plucking up her courage, approached and warned him.
"Duan Guangping won't be coming back!"
Sun Yuan turned to look at the aunt: "Because he's dead."
"Dead?"
The middle-aged woman exclaimed.
"Yes, I killed him!"
Sun Yuan looked up and saw that there were about fifty people in the other carriages, and most of them were young and attractive women.
Even the middle-aged women had some charm.
When these women heard that Duan Guangping was dead, they immediately erupted in curses and cries. Then, some of them reacted and ran to the last carriage.
That was Duan Guangping's "palace," where all the food was stored.
Soon, the women began to fight over the food.
The few men who had been with Duan Guangping also returned, but they didn't dare to act recklessly with Sun Yuan present.
"Brother, aren't you going to stop them? Food is very precious now."
The high school student whispered.
"Whatever!"
Sun Yuan had just taken over a supermarket and didn't care about these supplies. He came here for the chance to draw from the vending machine, not to be a savior.
Initially, the women were afraid that Sun Yuan would interfere, but once they realized he didn't, they fought even more fiercely.
"Try it, you should be able to walk now!"
Sun Yuan finished the treatment and put away the Love Shock Device.
Wei Dongmai stood up and found that his limbs, though still a bit numb and slightly painful, could move, which made him cry with joy.
He thought he was going to die, but now he saw a glimmer of hope.
"Brother Sun!"
Wei Dongmai wiped his tears with his arm.
"Just call me Sun Yuan."
Sun Yuan smiled: "Well, it's over. I'm leaving."
"Leaving?"
The high school student was stunned: "You're not going to take over this territory?"
"Territory?"
Sun Yuan laughed: "This?"
He had no intention of staying in this subway station, let alone the entire city. Once the city's main tower appeared, Sun Yuan would attack it, claim the first ascent reward, and then head to the Beijing safe zone.
"Isn't this good?"
The high school student was confused.
In his view, Duan Guangping had food, women, and no one dared to defy him, living like an emperor.
But Sun Yuan, who could have had all of that, dismissed it with disdain.
"Leaving, see you if we meet again!"
Sun Yuan waved and left the carriage.
"Wait!"
Wei Dongmai called out, but Sun Yuan didn't stop.
Sun Yuan walked out of the tunnel, returned to the subway station, and was about to climb the stairs to leave when a young woman walked down.
She saw Sun Yuan, raised an eyebrow, and asked: "Name, age, and what are you doing here?"
"Why should I tell you?"
Sun Yuan frowned and listened intently to the surroundings.
There were no other footsteps,
This meant the woman was alone, which was impressive. Sun Yuan sized her up; she was either very powerful or very foolish.
The woman took out a badge from her pocket and showed it to Sun Yuan: "I'm a police officer!"
"..."
Sun Yuan was speechless. He had always been a law-abiding citizen and had never been questioned by the police.
For a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
By the way, this woman's name is Jin Baixue?
A nice name.
Sun Yuan had good eyesight, so even from a distance, he could see the name on the badge.
"Name, age, and what are you doing here?"
Jin Baixue asked again.
"Can't I just be here for fun?"
Sun Yuan shrugged.
Swish!
Jin Baixue pulled out a gun and pointed it at Sun Yuan. Her movements were not only standard but also graceful, exuding a sense of authority.
"I'm on duty, please cooperate!"
Jin Baixue demanded.
"The world is ending, and you're still on duty?"
Sun Yuan mocked.
"As long as I'm alive, I will maintain law and order and catch criminals."
Jin Baixue's voice was cold.
"Just a gun, who are you trying to scare?"
Sun Yuan sneered.
"Are you a Seer who has awakened soul power?"
Jin Baixue's eyes, sharp and piercing, stared at Sun Yuan, showing no fear or hesitation. She was willing to sacrifice her life for justice.
"Are you one too?"
Sun Yuan sized up Jin Baixue.
She wore dark blue police pants and a white shirt with a plain dark red tie. Her long hair was parted on both sides of her forehead, the rest tied into a ponytail at the back.
This policewoman was unadorned, but her beauty was striking, on par with Su Tanxia. Compared to Su Tanxia, she had a more heroic and cold demeanor, and an air of authority.
Clearly, Jin Baixue was not just a regular beat cop but a capable officer in a high position.
Jin Baixue didn't answer, her gaze passing over Sun Yuan to the depths of the tunnel.
She heard the commotion inside.
"What did you do?"
Jin Baixue demanded.
Sun Yuan cracked his knuckles, making a clicking sound.
The tension between them was palpable.
At that moment, Wei Dongmai caught up. Seeing Sun Yuan with a gun pointed at him, he didn't hesitate but rushed to his side.
"Big deal with a gun!"
Wei Dongmai cursed, provoking Jin Baixue, and whispered to Sun Yuan: "I'll hold her off, you run!"
"Name, age, and what are you doing here?"
Jin Baixue looked at the young man in the blue Ele.me uniform and helmet and asked: "And, I'm a police officer, you have an obligation to cooperate with me!"
"Huh?"
Wei Dongmai panicked. He was a law-abiding citizen and never dared to defy the police, especially traffic police. When he delivered food, he was as obedient as a grandson.
He never ran red lights and always walked across the crosswalk.
"We... we didn't break any laws!"
Wei Dongmai quickly explained: "He... he saved me... us!"
"Explain in detail!"
Jin Baixue urged.
Wei Dongmai gave a rough explanation, saying that Sun Yuan was a good person who had eliminated Duan Guangping, who had oppressed everyone, and freed the oppressed.
Jin Baixue put away her gun after listening.
"I'm chasing a group of escaped convicts. Three of them have awakened soul power and are very dangerous. If you encounter them, be very careful!"
Jin Baixue warned.
"The world is ending, and you still have the time to deal with this?"
Wei Dongmai was surprised. He felt that there were too many bad people, and it was impossible to eliminate them all. The best strategy was to protect oneself and survive.
"Bad people should be brought to justice at any time!"
Jin Baixue said and walked deeper into the tunnel.
"Hey, I admire your sense of justice, but the more difficult God's Tower will soon appear. You should focus on strengthening your body and earning points, not chasing criminals."
Sun Yuan reminded her.
Jin Baixue, though cold and distant, was a good police officer with a strong sense of justice.
After the seven-day survival battle, the God's Tower in this district would appear, and another deadly competition would begin.
Those without strength would die.
Jin Baixue didn't respond and walked deeper into the tunnel.
Sun Yuan shrugged and prepared to head to the Wanda Mall, hoping that the vending machine on the roof hadn't been touched yet.
