Chapter 1023 I'm someone you can't afford to mess with!
"do not want!"
"Swish!"
Just as everyone was stunned for a moment, Ding Kai's urgent voice rang out again, causing them to freeze once more. When they looked over again, their faces instantly turned pale.
It turned out that at the very moment the general was shot, the two security guards standing by the wall instinctively drew their guns again and pointed them at Qin Zhong.
This time, Qin Zhong ignored Ding Kai's shouts. His right hand suddenly transformed into a large sword about three meters long. With a flash of light, two heads fell to the ground.
Blood gushed from the necks of the two security guards like fountains, instantly turning the white wall red, a scene that terrified everyone.
"Thump, thump!" The bodies of the two security guards, whose heads had been severed, finally collapsed to the ground with a loud thud, startling everyone present.
"Gentlemen, I've said it before, don't point guns at me so easily. I'm not known for my good temper. Do you think I'm afraid to kill someone?"
Qin Zhong transformed the large sword in his right hand back into a palm, calmly looked at the three men above him, and said, "These three died because of their own fault, they can't blame me! You can't afford to mess with me!"
"you……"
Old Master Qing was furious. The general who had died was one of his men. It was at his instruction that the man acted rashly, but he never expected to die on the spot.
It should be understood that the death of a general is a serious blow to any force, meaning that the power structure within the military will be reshuffled, and Qing Lao's faction will inevitably suffer huge losses as a result.
"Alright, Ding Kai, hurry up and have someone clean it up."
Compared to Elder Qing's anger, Elder Zhang and Elder Shen exchanged a glance. Although both had solemn expressions, a hint of excitement shone deep within their eyes.
Originally, China's power was quite stable, with the three checking and balancing each other, making it difficult for their power to change. However, this unexpected turn of events occurred.
Such a change is certainly unfavorable to Elder Qing, but a happy event for Elder Zhang and Elder Shen.
The two exchanged a glance, and though they didn't speak, they seemed to have reached a consensus in an instant.
Old Master Shen slowly said, "Qin Zhong, although we have never met, I have always taken good care of Miss Sun. Although Elder Qing was inappropriate, he was not wrong either, so you don't need to take it too seriously!"
At this point, he turned to look at Elder Qing: "Elder Qing, after all, it was Zhang Kai who wanted to kill Qin Zhong first, so it's understandable that he struck first. This can't be blamed on Qin Zhong."
“That’s right, Lao Qing, that’s what I meant too,” Old Zhang immediately echoed.
"You..." Upon hearing this, Elder Qing's expression grew even more unpleasant.
After a long while, he stood up, glared at Qin Zhong, and said, "I'm not feeling well, I'll go see a doctor first."
After saying that, without waiting for Elder Shen and Elder Zhang to respond, he walked towards the door. The three people at the conference table also got up and followed him in a disheveled manner.
"hehe!"
Watching Elder Qing and his faction leave, Qin Zhong simply smiled and did not stop them.
When Elder Qing and his entourage arrived at the conference room door, the scene in the corridor caused their expressions to change drastically. Elder Qing even turned around abruptly to look at Qin Zhong, his eyes filled with horror.
……
After Elder Qing and the others left in a hurry, at the signal from Elder Shen and Elder Zhang, the two generals and several others present also left one after another.
Everyone who left was horrified after witnessing the scene in the corridor, and their gazes toward Qin Zhong were filled with an indescribable panic.
"Qin Chong, it's all a misunderstanding. How about you give me some face and let these people go?" After hesitating for a moment, Ding Kai stepped forward and pleaded in a low voice.
After all, almost everyone in the corridor outside was his subordinate. He didn't want more people to die. Everyone here was an elite, and it would be too regrettable for them to die like this.
In his view, Qin Zhong was so powerful that even if Elder Shen spoke up, he might not give him face. But these were his subordinates after all, so he had no choice but to give it a try.
"Alright, I'll still give you face!"
To Ding Kai's surprise, Qin Zhong nodded in agreement and waved his hand to release the shadow control spell. The controlled security personnel fell from the sky.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned. No one expected that Qin Zhong would give Ding Kai so much face. Although they didn't know why, most people thought that Qin Zhong's claim of giving Ding Kai face was just an excuse.
Perhaps the real face he was giving was to Elder Shen and Elder Zhang above, but everyone else misunderstood. What Qin Zhong said was the truth; he was giving face to Ding Kai, the Iron King, the strongest human in the future.
The security guards, once released from control, quickly got to their feet after landing, many of them drawing their pistols, their eyes burning with rage.
"Put down your guns, that's an order!" Ding Kai was shocked to see this. He hadn't expected Qin Zhong to be so accommodating, releasing his men with just one sentence. Seeing that his men still wanted to resist, he quickly gave the order.
Although the security personnel looked unwilling, they ultimately suppressed their anger and put away their guns upon hearing Ding Kai's angry shout.
"A few of you, clean this up." Seeing that his men were still relatively rational, Ding Kai breathed a sigh of relief and beckoned a few people into the house to clean up. After entering the house, the men witnessed the miserable state of their colleague, their expressions changed drastically, and they looked at Qin Zhong in horror.
As if sensing everyone's gaze, Qin Chong turned around and smiled, his white teeth flashing with a cold light, making everyone's hair stand on end.
"Am I that scary?" Looking at the security guards who were looking down and not daring to look him in the eye, Qin Zhong smiled at Sun Xiaoyan beside him and said, "Actually, I'm a very nice person!"
Qin Zhong's words left everyone speechless, but Qing Lao's faction had already left, and those remaining were all Zhang Lao and Shen Lao's people, so no one dared to refute him.
"Qin Zhong, how about we change rooms? The smell of blood here is too strong!" Despite the security guards' best efforts to clean up, the deaths of the three men left the air thick with a pungent, bloody stench, prompting Old Shen to suggest.
"Don't go through all that trouble, let's just stay here. I'm short on time." Qin Chong shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Compared to the bloodshed of the apocalypse, the smell of blood here is much fainter."
At this point, Qin Zhong's tone became even more serious, "Before we get down to business, I'll show you something so you can understand what the apocalypse is really like!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Zhong lightly tapped his tactical detection glasses, and immediately, images were projected onto the white wall in front of him.
"What is this?" Elder Shen, Elder Zhang, and the others frowned upon seeing the image projected on the wall. After a moment, Elder Shen hesitated before speaking, "Could this be the city after the apocalypse?"
Qin Zhong did not answer directly, but silently adjusted the parameters of his glasses, and the scene changed accordingly.
The new scenes are even more shocking. On the devastated streets, abandoned vehicles are parked haphazardly, and traces of zombie activity can be vaguely seen among the ruins. An invisible sense of oppression seems to permeate the air, sending chills down one's spine.
“These are all photos I took.” Qin Zhong’s voice was low and calm. “The apocalypse is not like the movies, full of heroism and romance. It is more cruel and more real. What you see now is just the tip of the iceberg.”
Elder Shen and Elder Zhang exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing complex emotions. Although they had been mentally prepared, witnessing such a scene was still difficult for them to accept.
Especially the details: zombies seem to be moving behind the broken windows, and rotten food packaging is scattered next to the abandoned supermarket shelves, all of which show how the once prosperous city gradually went to destruction.
As Qin Zhong manipulated the screen, the footage of the airport soldiers battling zombies was quickly projected onto the wall. Seeing these scenes of soldiers fighting zombies, everyone present paled.
"If we don't want our world to become like this, there are some things we must prepare for in advance." Qin Zhong's words struck like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's hearts hard.
