Li Mengxi slowly withdrew her gun: “I’m just doing the right thing.”
“What? What is the right thing?”
“Ruoruo, can’t you see? The Demon God Squad has become history. Zhou Tie doesn’t even have the money to pay for the armored car this time. If we go back with him, we can only follow him in paying the debt. He has no future, and keeping him around will only drag us all down to death. Moreover, he is greedy and lustful. We have both been harassed by him, Ruoruo. Don’t you think this is the best opportunity to get rid of him?”
Ruoruo opened her mouth, her heart already agreeing with Li Mengxi’s words, but seeing the gentle and quiet Li Mengxi suddenly raise her gun and kill someone made her feel a bit unable to accept it, and she felt that the person in front of her was somewhat unfamiliar and even more terrifying.
There was a sentence in her heart that she didn’t say aloud, that she suspected Li Mengxi might have seen Lin Zhen as having more potential, and perhaps had already made up her mind to throw herself into Lin Zhen’s arms. Zhou Tie’s existence was undoubtedly an obstacle and a time bomb. Li Mengxi used this opportunity to get rid of Zhou Tie, not necessarily without ulterior motives.
After killing Zhou Tie, Li Mengxi simply took out her phone, posted a message online about the disbandment of the Demon God Squad, and proactively left a message on the official website of the military asking them to freeze the bank accounts of Zhou Tie, Hua Xiaofeng, and Kong Shan.
Since the three War Generals in the team were dead, the remaining two warriors would not have to bear the corresponding responsibilities.
Moreover, freezing those three accounts would be enough to pay for the armored car. In this way, Li Mengxi and Ruoruo wouldn’t have to bear any responsibilities.
After doing all this, Li Mengxi threw Zhou Tie’s corpse out.
“OK, Ruoruo, let’s sleep.”
Li Mengxi was also very tired and fell asleep directly.
Looking at Li Mengxi who seemed to be asleep, Ruoruo did not dare to sleep. Who knew if Li Mengxi was pretending to sleep to paralyze her? If she really fell asleep, and Li Mengxi dealt with her like she did Zhou Tie, she would be finished.
Lying there tossing and turning, the more Ruoruo thought about it, the more she didn’t dare to stay with Li Mengxi. So she decided to leave Li Mengxi.
After all, the Demon God Squad was no more. Why should she continue to stay with this cruel and ruthless woman?
After lying down for a while, Ruoruo silently stood up and left the ruins.
By this time, it was already night, she did not dare to run around and chose a concealed terrain to walk for a while, eventually arriving under an iron tower.
This used to be the site of the Yi Lan County TV tower in the past. Even after a
thousand years, most of the buildings had collapsed, but this iron tower still stood tall here.
Due to the iron tower’s framework, several rubble piles from surrounding bricks and stones had accumulated like hills. Ruoruo found a gap in the rubble pile and crawled into it. It was a concealed and wind-resistant spot where she could hide temporarily.
Settling down, she finally let out a sigh of relief and prepared to rest for a while.
However, just at this moment, an angry roar came from a distance.
“It’s the Giant Palm Human Bear!”
Ruoruo craned her neck to look outside and saw four shadows rushing in from afar.
The two in front were humans, and the two behind them were two huge human bears.
The two human bears were already covered in wounds, but they seemed to be crazily chasing after the two humans who were running in front of them.
Those two people also ran very fast, but their speed was obviously slower than the human bears, especially the one holding a rock the size of a water tank, who couldn’t move quickly at all. They were about to be caught up by the Giant Palm Human Bears.
Ruoruo’s eyes widened in disbelief: “These… these two people are War Gods? What did they take from the Giant Palm Human Bears that made the bears chase after them, and there are actually two bears, both A-level monsters, one male and one female!”
The two War Gods were Bai Feng and Ding Yan. Bai Feng stealthily entered the stadium to steal the meteorite but did not expect there to be a female bear inside.
It turned out that the giant palm bear had not evolved on its own, but in a pair.
When encountering the female bear, a bloody battle immediately ensued. Bai Feng, with his Intermediate War God strength, managed to snatch the meteorite and flee, but not without sustaining serious injuries.
Ding Yan tried to block the male bear but also got hurt. The two War Gods fought for a while, but because they did not expect two bears, they realized they wouldn’t be able to hold off and had to run away. However, running while holding the meteorite wasn’t easy, and they were about to be caught up.
Bai Feng, holding the rock, said to Ding Yan, “Ding Yan, this won’t work. We have to split up. You draw away the male bear, then meet me at the bus station!” “Ok! Take care!”
Ding Yan turned around and swung his blade at the male bear twice, the dazzling blade flashing in the night, leaving two wounds on the bear’s abdomen.
The injured male bear roared and pounced on Ding Yan, who ducked into an alley, disappearing with the giant palm bear.
Bai Feng, using all his strength, ran around the ruins of the TV tower and threw the meteorite into the pile of rubble, then picked up another large rock and started running.
For a time, the female bear couldn’t tell the difference and continued to chase Bai Feng’s figure into the distance.
Ruoruo witnessed all of this and, while admiring the strength of the War Gods, became curious about Bai Feng’s actions.
What on earth could it be that made the War Gods fiercely compete with the bears? Although she didn’t know what it was, she could be sure that it must be an extraordinary treasure.
Quietly crawling out of her hiding place, Ruoruo arrived at the pile of debris and struggled to move the black stone.
“So, it’s a meteorite? Isn’t this a prohibited item? Why would a War God fight desperately with a bear over it? Never mind, I’ll grab it first.”
Ruoruo was a Level Nine Warrior, but her strength was not great. The rating for female warriors was based on comprehensive evaluations, not necessarily having to meet the male standard for strength. The meteorite weighed a hefty 500 kilograms, and moving it was extremely difficult for her.
But she knew that Bai Feng would likely come back for the meteorite soon, so she had to take it away.
Greed overcame everything, and Ruoruo managed to lift the rock and move it toward another pile of debris.
After walking a few hundred meters, she hid the meteorite in a residence, wiped her footprints clean, and deliberately carried another rock for a few hundred meters in another direction, setting up a deception. Only then did she return, ready to come back and take the meteorite.
However, when she returned to the spot where she had hidden it, she found it empty. The meteorite that was just there was gone!
“What’s going on? Where’s my meteorite? Where’s my meteorite?” Ruoruo frantically searched everywhere. Who would follow her trail and take her meteorite in the middle of the night?
“There must be someone, someone must be watching my movements in secret, taking the meteorite while I was setting up the deception. Who could it be?” Ruoruo rushed out of the residence, determined to find clues.
Just as she did, she saw a figure moving around the TV tower. Bai Feng had returned.
Ruoruo was too frightened to make a sound and quickly retreated, waiting for Bai Feng to leave before she went out. Otherwise, she would surely be killed by the enraged Bai Feng.
Indeed, Bai Feng was loudly roaring in anger, very furious.
“Quick, go, follow the trail of deception I set up for you and leave. Once you leave, I’ll be safe.” Ruoruo prayed nonstop.
Bai Feng roared a few more times, and indeed found Ruoruo’s footprints, about to head in that direction. But at that moment, a stone the size of a bowl suddenly hit Ruoruo’s lower back.
Hidden well, Ruoruo screamed in pain, jumping up.
At once, Bai Feng’s attention was drawn..
