I Build a Floating City in the Apocalypse – Chapter 57

Chapter 57

“Wang Kai, clean up the battlefield?”

Fang Bai’s voice rang out. Wang Kai was stunned for a moment, but then realized that it seemed like cleaning up the battlefield was the only thing he could do.

Wang Kai couldn’t help but look at Fang Bai with a complicated expression. They initially thought they were the main force, while Fang Bai was just an addition – a bonus if he was there, but not a big deal if he wasn’t.

But now they suddenly realized that it seemed like they were the ones who were just extras – no, they were definitely just extras!

“Fang Bai, you could take on the entire Brotherhood by yourself, couldn’t you?

Why did you agree to come with us before? We can’t help much, we’re just here to make up the numbers, right?”

Wang Kai asked in confusion.

“I just happened to run into you, so I came along. It’s no big deal. It’s also a good opportunity to tell the factions and survivors in Shen Shan Town some things.

At the very least, we can still help a little and make a show of force.”

Wang Kai understood.

“Indeed, we’re just here to make up the numbers.”

Fang Bai seemed to hear the hurtful truth. Looking at Wang Kai and the others with their complex expressions, Fang Bai smiled.

“You haven’t changed jobs yet, it’s normal. If you could beat job-changers without changing jobs, wouldn’t that make job-changing pointless?

Job-changing is a huge boost to one’s strength!

You’ll be fine once you change jobs.”

Wang Kai’s eyes lit up at his words, and he asked expectantly,

“Will I have your strength after I change jobs?”

Fang Bai pondered for a moment, then told the biggest lie of the century without changing his expression.

“Probably about the same. I just changed jobs a little earlier than you, and I’m a little stronger, that’s all.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Kai and the others were filled with anticipation.

“Can I also change jobs to become an archer?”

Fang Bai looked Wang Kai up and down at his words.

“I advise you to be careful. I have a certain foundation in archery and a little bit of talent, so I decided to change jobs to become an archer.

Don’t be influenced by me, just consider it for yourself.

Everyone has a job that suits them. There is no strongest job, only the strongest person.”

After Fang Bai finished speaking, he strode towards the Brotherhood players.

Under the deterrence of the corpse in the crowd, they didn’t dare to make a sound while Fang Bai and Wang Kai were talking. They could only watch Fang Bai with trepidation, waiting for the judgment of fate.

Fang Bai stopped when he was only twenty or thirty meters away from the Brotherhood members. He looked at them, drew his bow and nocked an arrow, then said calmly,

“Point out all the senior management and Wu Lei’s confidants.”

Fang Bai looked at the motionless crowd and smiled.

“If no one points them out, then I’ll kill everyone.”

As soon as he finished speaking, one person hesitated for a moment, then pointed to the person in front of him and said,

“He’s the vice president!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the already anxious vice president immediately rushed into the crowd, trying to hide. But he didn’t expect the people around him to react even faster, instantly creating a large empty area.

Whoosh!

A soul-snatching sound rang out. The vice president’s head exploded, and the wooden arrow shot out. Fortunately, it didn’t hit anyone else.

“Don’t stand next to senior management or Wu Lei’s confidants, or you might get hurt.”

As soon as Fang Bai finished speaking, empty areas instantly appeared in the crowd of more than two hundred people, roughly four of them.

The faces of the people in the middle of the empty areas were filled with fear. Some begged for mercy, some tried to escape, but wherever they ran, the surrounding crowd dodged with apprehension, even directly kicking them to the ground. In addition, someone picked up a weapon and shouted,

“There are so many of us, let’s fight him!”

Bang!

The head of the person charging towards Fang Bai instantly exploded. Before the others could run far, Fang Bai killed them one by one.

With the strength of the Novice Wooden Bow and the vision of the Eagle Eye skill, coupled with Fang Bai’s mental power calculations, one or two hundred meters were within Fang Bai’s precise killing range. These few people couldn’t escape at all.

After cleaning up these few people, Fang Bai looked at the Brotherhood members again, scanning them one by one with his mental power, especially observing their eyes.

He was looking for people who were suppressing their emotions, angry, or hateful, especially those who were suppressing their emotions. These were all hidden dangers.

Fang Bai wouldn’t ignore them just because he was strong and they were weak. There were too many ways to kill someone.

Those who only shouted “kill, kill, kill” were fine, but what if they really held a grudge for a year or two and then came back for revenge? Fang Bai couldn’t guarantee that he could avoid it.

If you want to fight, you have to be ruthless and cut the weeds and roots!

When he killed Wu Lei, Fang Bai had already made this decision decisively.

Regret, being soft-hearted…

Kill them first, then confess your mistakes and repent in front of their corpses. This is forgivable.

After all, there’s a Buddhist saying: “Lay down the butcher’s knife and become a Buddha on the spot.”

There’s also a saying: “A prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold.”

Fang Bai scanned them one by one. Everyone who made eye contact with him couldn’t help but tremble slightly, covered in cold sweat.

Finally, Fang Bai stopped and said with a smile,

“Alright, don’t be so nervous. I’m not a bloodthirsty person. I built this Novice Village, and I’m just taking back what’s mine.

You can go.”

After Fang Bai finished speaking, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Then Fang Bai continued,

“Oh, right, I’m planning to form a team to maintain order in the Novice Village. You just happen to be without an organization, and you all have a good foundation. Are you interested?

Don’t worry about the Brotherhood. After all, you’ve only been in the Brotherhood for a day or two, maybe three days. It’s not a big deal.”

“I’m willing to join.”

One person raised his hand after hesitating for a moment.

“Good, anyone else?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the former Brotherhood members turned from grief to joy, and quickly raised their hands and responded loudly.

And during the transition from grief to joy, Fang Bai instantly locked onto a person who was still sad. This surprised Fang Bai a little. He wasn’t a very scheming person. He originally just wanted to test the waters and be safe.

After all, he had already killed people, so he might as well put in some effort, do things thoroughly, and handle the aftermath properly. So he was a little more cautious, but he didn’t expect to actually find something.

“There really is someone?”

Fang Bai aimed his bow and arrow at this survivor with average equipment. The people blocking him instantly parted, revealing him.

“You hate me, you want to avenge Wu Lei?”

“I, I don’t…”

A trace of resentment flashed in the man’s eyes, but it disappeared in a flash. He looked at Fang Bai in horror and quickly said.

Whoosh!

The man was killed. The others trembled and looked at Fang Bai in fear.

Fang Bai put away his bow and looked at the group quietly, truly starting to think about how to deal with them.

More than two hundred people. Letting them go would be a disaster. Maybe someone would gather them again under the banner of avenging Wu Lei.

After all, regardless of whether there was hatred or not, if it was just to avenge one person, if just killing one person could gather more than two hundred people, Fang Bai would be happy to do it. He didn’t need to really kill, just raise a banner and draw a pie. How simple!

But what if he didn’t let them go? Kill them all?

Fang Bai pondered. When he saw the job-changing sculpture next to him, an idea suddenly popped into his mind.

Why not really recruit them?

After a moment, Fang Bai slowly said,

“Are you willing to join Number One Novice Village?”

The Brotherhood members nodded repeatedly when they heard this, without any hesitation.

“We’re willing, we’re willing.”

“I’m not forcing you. This is entirely voluntary. You don’t have to worry, just tell me your true thoughts.”

“We’re willing, we’re willing. This is our true thought.”

Everyone nodded frantically, apparently, they were all very willing. After all, Fang Bai had said that he wouldn’t force them.

“Alright then, welcome to join. I think this is something you will never regret.”
