Chapter 420: When a man is about to die, his heart becomes evil.

Behind him, Liang Yu’s voice rang out again.

“I’m asking you, why didn’t you join them?”

Hearing this question again, the burly man leading the group was visibly stunned. He didn’t understand why this person in front of him was so fixated on this question.

Just then, Liang Yu’s clean-up team appeared.

Three Marios, armed with submachine guns, aimed at the Survivors. Before they could react, a continuous burst of gunfire erupted.

The burly man watched helplessly as everyone around him lifelessly collapsed in front of him. Their sprawling bodies, lying helter-skelter, felt like heavy stones pressing down on his heart.

His legs involuntarily trembled slightly, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.

But even with fear surging like a tide within him, he gritted his teeth, forcing himself to support his tottering body.

A hint of stubbornness and struggle shone in his eyes, and his brain raced in extreme unease.

Liang Yu stood behind him, his gaze like a torch, fixed on him, as if his eyes could penetrate every corner of his mind.

The burly man could feel the powerful aura emanating from Liang Yu, which made him even more flustered.

He constantly searched his mind for suitable answers, possible replies flashing past like a revolving lantern.

He knew full well that his answer concerned his life and death; a slight misstep and he would be the next to fall.

Every time he considered an answer, he would quickly reject it, fearing it wouldn’t satisfy Liang Yu.

Time seemed to freeze, each second passing incredibly slowly.

The burly man’s lips were cracked, and his breathing became rapid and disordered.

Finally, for reasons unknown, the burly man recounted his purpose and thoughts.

Only after this narration did he feel his body inexplicably lighten a lot, no longer as heavy and oppressive as before.

Liang Yu listened to the other party’s plan of ‘a cuckoo occupying a magpie’s nest’ and inexplicably laughed, simultaneously releasing his grip on the other party.

Seeing the burly man turn around and look at him, Liang Yu’s next words once again made the other party feel pressure.

“Say something.”

“As your last words.”

When the burly man heard Liang Yu’s words, his face, which had just regained some color, instantly turned ashen, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.

He knew in his heart that the other party had no intention of letting him go; the shadow of death now completely enveloped him like a dark cloud.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to resist; the instinct for survival surged wildly within him.

However, seeing a Mario, after dealing with his teammates, holding a gun, its dark muzzle like the maw of a man-eating beast, emanating a chilling aura.

If he made even the slightest move, that fatal bullet would probably instantly pierce his body.

Sweat beads the size of beans rolled down the burly man’s forehead, sliding down his front.

His legs were weak, almost unable to stand steadily, and his eyes were full of despair and helplessness.

He slowly raised his head, looking at Liang Yu, with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

“Can you give me another chance…? I promise I won’t ever again…”

However, Liang Yu just looked at him indifferently, without the slightest hint of emotion.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and the air became incredibly heavy.

The burly man knew that he had nowhere to run, and pleading was useless. The other party was determined to kill him, so he could only fight for his life.

At this moment, the burly man’s eyes changed abruptly. His already ferocious face became even more terrifying due to his fierce gaze.

His eyes were wide like brass bells, and a nearly insane, ferocious light burned in them, like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey, exuding endless cruelty.

Knowing that his survival was hopeless, the burly man’s malice completely erupted.

He clenched his teeth, his cheeks bulging, and the muscles on his face twisted from the effort.

His only thought was to drag Liang Yu down with him.

He suddenly clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking loudly, and with a desperate, reckless force, he charged towards Liang Yu.

The distance between the two was very close; their breathing could be clearly heard.

The burly man leading the group’s eyes glinted with ferocity, and thoughts of survival raced wildly in his mind.

He stared intently at Liang Yu, every nerve stretched to its limit, his body slightly crouched, ready to spring.

Liang Yu seemed to sense the danger. Just at this critical moment, the burly man suddenly erupted, like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.

His speed was extremely fast, carrying a force that cut through the air. He savagely clawed at Liang Yu’s shoulders with both hands, attempting to strike him down in one blow.

Liang Yu shook his head. Although he moved later, his actions were faster. Just as one of the burly man’s hands was about to grab Liang Yu’s arm, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.

Liang Yu, using the momentum, twisted his body and threw a punch heavily into the burly man’s abdomen.

The burly man cried out in pain, his attack stalled.

But his desire for survival was strong. Although he wanted to ignore the pain in his body and exert force again to attack Liang Yu.

However, his body seemed to betray his will, reacting completely differently from his thoughts.

He involuntarily clutched the spot where Liang Yu had hit him with both hands, his movements extremely clumsy, as if he was enduring unbearable pain there.

At the same time, his throat felt as if it had been violently seized, and he uncontrollably gagged.

His body convulsed violently with the retching, again and again, as if he wouldn’t stop until his internal organs were expelled.

His face was flushed, veins bulging on his forehead, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down his cheeks.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze, so quiet that only his painful retching could be heard.

Each sound was like a heavy hammer, repeatedly striking him.

After an unknown amount of time, the burly man stopped gagging and squatted on the ground, using every insulting word and phrase he knew on Liang Yu.

Two Marios came over, one on each side, holding the burly man in place. Liang Yu took out a whole roasted pigeon, listening to the insults while eating.

Finally, the other party seemed to have cursed himself tired and closed his cracked lips.

Liang Yu looked at him and thought, this person is really something. He ran out of words in just over ten minutes. His roommate back then cursed someone for over three hours without repeating a single phrase.

Finding it uninteresting, Liang Yu had a Mario drag the burly man away to deal with him. When he looked at the pile of corpses, he noticed that, as expected of laborers, two of the three Marios were guarding the burly man, while the other was clearing the corpses.

Liang Yu also understood that this place was probably no longer suitable for living. In two days, more and more people would be active, and his peace would likely be gone.

At this moment, he didn’t know why he hoped for the Underground Monster and Zerg to appear, so these Survivors wouldn’t have the chance to find him.

However, there was one thing he had to do now.

He now had the confidence to explore Changbai Mountain, wanting to see what secrets were hidden within, and at the same time, he also focused his thoughts on an ancient book—the classic of mountains and seas.
