Chapter 340 - Cop Game, Unexpected Change - Part 1

Zhang Mengyao came down and inspected the wall from a distance. The black steel wall was perfectly made. It was not patching the wall, it was a straight smooth wall. It was clearly not human-made.

The wall was five meters tall, spreading wide through the building. She quickly noticed this might be the work of the system.

ʼBut why? How?ʼ She was puzzled by the sudden appearance of the wall.

”What is this?” She heard Tang Shaoyangʼs voice from the back.

”I donʼt know,” Zhang Mengyao shook her head, ”But thereʼs a gate there! We can try knock to find out,” She pointed at the gate. Clearly, the gate was made on top of the road so the car could pass through easily.

The wall was created by the system, but it was placed or positioned by a person hence it was designated the gate on top of the road. Zhang Mengyao deducted the whole thing by just looking at this.

”Our base is beyond this wall, and I donʼt get a notification that our base is seized by the others. The Smart Base should be still under my control, and the gate is most likely created by our people,” Tang Shaoyang voiced his conjecture as he approached the gate.

She thought about it. What he said made sense, Cao Jingyi should be the one who made the wall through the system, ”Did you ask Cao Jingyi to make the wall?”

”I did not. It should be Originʼs idea. I have been telling Origin that I want to make a wall so the people in the base should be free from the zombie. But we only have limited funds at that time,” Being asked by Zhang Mengyao, he recalled that he indeed said that to Origin, ”Origin must tell Cao Jingyi about my idea and build the wall from the spare GC from the treasury.”

Since it was highly safe, Zhang Mengyao told the other girls that they could come down too. Lu An and Wei Xi also followed, even Wen followed the group while Kairu stayed in the backline to protect the convoy from danger.

”To be safe, you should go inside to check, Wen!” He turned toward the Jade Eagle and instructed him.

”Yes, My Lord!” Wen nodded his head as his figure flashed to the sky, hardly getting noticed by naked eyes.

Quickly the group arrived in front of the gate. Lu An stepped forward and knocked on the gate with his fist.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

He knocked on the steel gate as loud bang noises followed up, ”Anyone inside? The Boss has returned!”

There was no answer from the other side. Just as Lu An was about to knock on the gate again, the steel gate opened a small gap.

Two men passed through the gap and scanned the group. They were armored, the armor used to equip the Tarrior. Both men were holding a spear in their right hand.

The two menʼs eyes lingered around the women much longer than the men. One scanned Zhang Mengyaoʼs chest and the other one scanned between Kang Xue and Elin.

A deep frown appeared on Tang Shaoyangʼs forehead, ”They wear Tarriorʼs gears, do you recognize them?” He whispered to Wei Xi and Zhang Mengyao. The two were responsible for Tarrior so they should recognize most of the Tarrior.

Zhang Mengyao and Wei Xi shook their heads. Clearly, the two guards also did not recognize Zhang Mengyao and the group.

”Wow, big batch survivors with hot baggage,” the guard that looked around twenty-seven commented as he noticed a big convoy behind the group.

”Should we report to the Chief or…” another guard that looked in his mid-thirties exchanged glances with his friend. The lewd gazes on their eyes were apparent.

”Welcome to Empire of Tang, we welcome survivors and we provide the survivors a shelter, food, and security,” the guard in his twenty-seven years old welcomed the group albeit it was very late.

Lu An looked at the two guards weirdly. He was about to ask whether they recognized him and the group or not, but the guard spoke first.

”But you have to pay to enter our territory,” the mid-thirties guard smiled at Zhang Mengyao, ”Donʼt worry about the pay, you only need to pay once, and by following the procedure once you inside our territory, free without any payment~”

Lu An was about to scold the two guards, daring to ask for payment from the Boss himself. However, Tang Shaoyang walked next to him and pulled him back, ”Whatʼs the payment?”

”1kg of rice or food that is a similar value to 1kg 9f rice per person. If you donʼt have rice, you can use meat, canned food, instant noodles, and more. We will measure it if the food is worth 1kg of rice, we have a specialized team for that,” the mid-thirties guard smiled widely.

”Is that the rules set up by your leader? I heard from people who have visited the empire thereʼs no such thing,” Tang Shaoyang argued to the guard. He maintained his composure while Wei Xi started to sweat.

ʼOh my god, Bossʼs mood is not the best because of those senseless fools from the celebration incident. Now, these two new guards are trying to do something stupid. This is going to be another bloody return!ʼ Wei Xi looked toward Zhang Mengyao. The reliable person to calm down the Boss seemed to be pissed off too because the guards lewdly stared at her, ʼWhy would you two offend the two big Bosses in the base? Where is the person in charge to supervise the gate?ʼ He was hoping for someone familiar to greet them to avoid the bloody disaster.

”That was an old rule. Because we received many survivors, we have to set this new rule to avoid the food shortage within the base,” The mid-thirties explained while maintaining his smile.

”What if we donʼt have rice and any other foods? Are not allowed to enter the base?” Tang Shaoyang kept the farce. He wanted to know how much his base had changed in less than two months.

”Yes! You and your friends canʼt enter the base without paying!” The mid-thirties guardʼs smile was getting wider and wider. His eyes kept moving between the girls, making the girls uncomfortable. The guard did not bother to hide his intention anymore.

”But you and your group seem not to have the food. What about this, you let us have a night with these four fair ladies then we will let your group enter the base?” The mid-thirties guard and his friend could not hide their joy, thinking Tang Shaoyang would agree to the proposal.

”We are stretching the rule because we see that a lot of people are relying on you,” the guard was trying to show his ”benevolent” side that made him look even more disgusting, ”We might lose our job if our superiors find out about this, how is it? Do you agree?”

”Hah…” Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh, it was unbelievable that the organized base he created would change into a den of scums within less than two months.

”Donʼt worry, you donʼt have to worry about your job because you donʼt have a job anymore!” Tang Shaoyang responded.

”I am going to take her and her!” Clearly, the guard in his mid-thirties was not listening. He was pointing his index finger at Kang Xue and Zhang Mengyao.

However, the twenty-seven years old guard heard that clearly, ”What do you say? You dare to say it again!?” He thought Tang Shaoyang was provoking them.

But within the blink of an eye, Tang Shaoyang was standing right in front of him. They separated only a few centimeters away, ”I say, you donʼt have a job anymore! So there is nothing to worry about!”

The words were very clear to their ears and the other guard was immediately awakened by the words. He was about to say something, but intense pain assaulted his index finger as a cracking noise followed up.

”ARGHHHH!!!” The guard in his mid-thirties got his index finger twisted backward by Zhang Mengyao. Wei Xi was shocked that the girl who was against violence was doing this.

The guard screamed as he fell on his knees. The other guard failed to process what happened until an intense pain assaulted his vital spot. Tang Shaoyangʼs knee was on his groin. The guardʼs eyes widened in shock and pain while tears gathered in his eyes. He went weak and fell on his knees too while covering his crotch with both his hands.

”What happened!?” A shout came and a figure came out of the gate. Yet it was another guard in Tarrior gear, Wei Xi and Zhang Mengyao did not recognize the guard.

”Attack! We are under-” he had not finished it yet as Lu An came to the guardʼs side and knocked the guard down. Another five came out but were easily taken down.

”Go look for ropes in the cars!” Tang Shaoyang asked Lu An to find ropes. He had something in his mind about what he should do to these scums.

”What are you going to do with ropes?” Zhang Mengyao asked out of curiosity.

”You will know very soon,” Tang Shaoyang grinned. He had been holding back as he did not want to conquer the people with pure fear. But he could no longer hold back when it came to this. Not only these people tried to ruin his hard work, but they eyed his women too.

After that, he looked toward Wei Xi, still with a maniacal grin on his face, ”Letʼs play the Cop Game, Wei Xi!”
