Chapter 90: Boss is Invincible! Defend Yulong Base to the Death!!

Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Boss is Invincible! Defend Yulong Base to the Death!!

Mengde walked out of the villa. Tiezhu and his men were already fully armed and on duty.

Looking at Tiezhu standing at the very front, guarding his post with a serious expression, Mengde couldn’t resist teasing him.

"Tiezhu, morning!"

"Come on, I’ll take you to meet some girls."

A large group of survivors had been brought back yesterday. Given Tiezhu’s guileless personality, Mengde figured he probably hadn’t met any of them yet.

Let alone that group of beautiful Bikang Beauties.

"I can’t."

"My momma said that men shouldn’t go astray."

"I’ve got Cuihua, so I can’t be with any other women!"

’Look at that. A real-life chaste man, no chastity belt required!’

’Back in the old days, they’d have built a memorial arch for his chastity!’

’All you club-hopping playboys out there, take a hint...’

’Cuihua?’

Mengde couldn’t help but recall the photo Tiezhu had shown him on their first day at the villa... a woman with the waist of a barrel...

He shuddered involuntarily...

"What else did your momma say?"

Tiezhu scratched his head, looking earnest. He thought for a moment, then said happily.

"My momma also said that when someone’s being nice for no reason, they’re up to no good."

"She told me to be careful."

As he said this, the guy’s eyes were shining.

’Heh heh... I really am a good boy who listens to his momma...’

"Er... Good. Keep it up..."

Mengde felt utterly defeated by his innocence...

He arrived at Villa No. 2.

As instructed, Leng Feng had already gathered all the survivors.

Everyone was gathered on the open ground in front of Villa No. 2.

It was a vast, swelling crowd, a sea of bobbing heads!

The open space was nearly overflowing with more than 1,200 people.

But the moment Mengde appeared, the noisy crowd fell silent.

Every eye was fixed on Mengde at the front of the assembly.

This was the very man who had saved them yesterday!

He had brought them to this place, giving them villas to live in and hot food to eat.

They no longer had to worry about their safety!

And so, many of them now looked at Mengde with eyes full of gratitude.

’According to the system display, most of them had already reached the level of ’Loyal.’’

’A portion had even achieved ’Devoted’ status!’

’They were practically incapable of betraying him!’

Mengde was very pleased with this sight.

’All that food wasn’t for nothing!’

He scanned the crowd.

Among the more than 1,200 people, the ratio of men to women was about seven to three.

It was a male-dominated group, which was to be expected.

Men always had a slight edge when it came to adapting to a hostile environment like the apocalypse.

The group was also a mixed bag in terms of their pre-apocalyptic lives.

There were former CEOs and high-level executives, as well as laborers and farmers.

But now, they all had just one identity: survivors of Yulong Base who desperately wanted to live!!!

’He had to admit, for a former corporate drone like himself, it would be a lie to say he wasn’t nervous speaking in front of this many people for the first time.’

’Thank goodness for the apocalypse. Otherwise, he would never have even had the chance to speak in front of such a large crowd.’

A simple platform had been set up in front of the crowd.

There was even a microphone on the platform.

’Standing here, Mengde felt a bit like one of his old managers giving a company-wide speech.’

’And today, he was here to hold an "oath-taking assembly"!’

"Ahem... I’m Mengde. You should all know me by now!"

’Most of the people here were the survivors he’d brought back yesterday; the rest were original residents of the villa complex.’

’There was no way anyone here didn’t know who he was.’

’After all, he was their savior and the one who provided their food and shelter.’

"I trust everyone is clear on why I’ve gathered you here: to work."

"So I won’t repeat myself!"

"To put it simply, from now on, all of you are members of Yulong Base!"

"As long as you all work hard, I, Mengde, can guarantee your safety and provide for your basic needs in this apocalyptic world!"

Every survivor believed him.

Even those who had only arrived last night had already gotten a preliminary taste of the benefits this island offered.

If they could, they would stay here forever.

They were provided with food, drink, and shelter—a package that was hard to find even before the apocalypse!

’As for having to work?’

’They had to do that before the apocalypse, too!’

’Growing food was, at the very least, better than being a corporate drone, ruthlessly exploited by capitalists until you dropped dead!’

’Besides, let’s not forget, this place also guaranteed their safety!’

’At least they no longer had to worry about being ripped to shreds by zombies and monsters.’

Seeing the crowd’s positive reaction, Mengde continued.

"Every single person who joins Yulong Base must obey the unified command of the base and defend Yulong Base together!!!"

"Yulong Base will have absolutely zero tolerance for betrayal!!!"

"But if anyone even thinks of doing something detrimental to Yulong Base, they’d better be prepared to pay for it with their life!!!"

’Mengde understood the importance of laying out the harsh truths upfront.’

The fully armed Brother Jingfu and Lei Qiang standing behind him as he spoke were the perfect deterrent.

Of course, he didn’t forget to put on a little show of his own.

With a wave of his hand, thunderclouds roiled and lightning filled the sky. The dark, oppressive display was terrifying!

Amidst the RUMBLING thunder, he used his Telekinesis Flight Superpower to slowly ascend into the air.

Simultaneously, his Flame power materialized as a long, crimson Fire Dragon that coiled around him.

With the lightning-filled sky as his backdrop and the Fire Dragon coiling around him, he appeared both noble and invincible.

In that moment, he was like the sovereign of the mortal world, gazing down upon everyone below.

Before him, they were like ants, not daring to even look at him directly.

This display of god-like power was seared deep into the minds of everyone present.

For a moment, a whirlwind of emotions—shock, awe, fear, joy—swept through the crowd.

But in the end, it all coalesced into a single phrase:

"Our leader is invincible! We swear to defend Yulong Base to the death!!!"

It started with Leng Feng, who let out the first fanatical roar.

As if infected by his fervor, everyone else began to shout.

"Our leader is invincible! We swear to defend Yulong Base to the death!!!"

"Our leader is invincible! We swear to defend Yulong Base to the death!!!"

"Our leader is invincible! We swear to defend Yulong Base to the death!!!"

"..."

The sound of their roars seemed to shake the very heavens.

The sheer force of their voices was immense.

If the zombies in the villas hadn’t already been cleared out, a massacre would have been inevitable.

Even the ten women in Villa No. 1 were drawn out by the thunderous shouts.

They stood at the doorway of Villa No. 1, silently gazing at the man in the air.

While not all of them had gone all the way with Mengde, he had, for the most part, already had a preliminary "taste" of each.

In their hearts, they had more or less already begun to see themselves as his women.

So now, seeing how exceptional their man was, they couldn’t help but feel their hearts swell with adoration.

’This was their man, their only anchor in this apocalyptic world.’

However, what no one knew was that Mengde, hovering in the air, was looking toward Leng Feng, utterly speechless...

’Dude, why are you getting so into character...’

’This wasn’t part of the script...’
