Chapter 375: Chapter 387: Zhao Lin’s Bitter Smile—Why Did You Have to Provoke Him?
Yu Hua City.
A sturdy platform made of cement and bricks was inside the base of Yu Hua Gang.
The platform was about one meter high, square-shaped, approximately nine zhang wide, occupying a considerable area.
Boom boom boom～
At this moment, a series of explosions sounded.
On the platform, two second-grade Evolvers were colliding rapidly, moving at an astonishing speed, their fists whistling through the air, each punch hitting squarely, exchanging blows back and forth, resulting in bursts of loud impacts.
At times, both would use their talent abilities in combat; one would launch fireballs, while the other would rely on lightning speed to continuously dodge, looking for an opportunity to counterattack.
At the edge of the platform, a third-grade Evolver stood, watching the movements of both sides, ready to intervene at any moment.
Below the platform, a circle of spectators stood, cheering excitedly when the fight reached its peaks.
Several hundred meters away from the platform, on a relatively quiet high ground, Zhao Lin sat in a chair, her face stern, watching the battle below.
On either side of Zhao Lin stood several powerful Evolvers from the Yu Hua Gang.
These members all acted with great respect whenever their eyes fell on Zhao Lin.
After successfully becoming the gang leader of Yu Hua Gang, Zhao Lin, to achieve a higher starting point when turning to the official human base, naturally pushed hard for the development of Yu Hua Gang.
After all, Yu Hua Gang was just a small force at the moment, not worth the attention of the officials.
And Zhao Lin’s first goal was to turn Yu Hua Gang into the number one Evolutionary Organization in Yu Hua City.
Soon, Zhao Lin, while leading her brothers to conquer other Evolutionary Organizations, also recruited Evolvers on a large scale.
Since being a fourth-grade Evolver, apparently fighting like a madman, fearless of death, Zhao Lin quickly gained fame throughout Yu Hua City with Yu Hua Gang.
Next, whenever any Evolutionary Organization opposed Yu Hua Gang, just hearing Zhao Lin’s name caused them to lose much of their fighting spirit.
Under Zhao Lin’s leadership and the victories achieved, all the members revered and admired her as their leader.
At the moment, Yu Hua Gang was recruiting members. On the arena, if someone could impress Zhao Lin with their skills while sparring with the gang members, they could join Yu Hua Gang.
After a full five minutes, the two Evolvers on the platform continued their back-and-forth, unable to determine a winner.
However, by then, the sparring time had ended, and both stopped simultaneously, standing at opposite ends of the platform.
At this moment, whether on stage or the spectators below, all eyes turned to Zhao Lin, waiting for her decision.
“Gang Leader, what do you think…”
An Evolver beside Zhao Lin asked softly.
Zhao Lin didn’t speak, she just nodded slightly.
The second-grade Evolver wanting to join Yu Hua Gang had demonstrated enough practical ability, fully meeting the requirements for joining.
The brother who received the answer immediately stood up straight, raised his head, and announced loudly, “I declare that Evolver Zhou Yu has successfully passed the test and will henceforth be one of us!”
Instantly, cheers erupted from the members below, and on stage, Zhou Yu, the Evolver who wanted to join Yu Hua Gang, was overwhelmed with excitement, his face flushed red, before being led down.
“Alright, next!”
Next, another Evolver stepped onto the platform for the test.
Zhao Lin sat quietly on the high ground, watching.
To develop and strengthen Yu Hua Gang, capable Evolvers were indispensable.
At present, her most important task was to recruit all potential Evolvers within the Yu Hua City area into Yu Hua Gang.
Once accomplished, she would turn her attention to the neighboring cities surrounding Yu Hua City, bringing in those potential Evolvers too.
Given time, Zhao Lin believed that Yu Hua Gang would grow more formidable, eventually becoming the strongest Evolutionary Organization in Jiang Province, significantly enhancing her value in the eyes of the official human base, thereby facilitating her entry into the official ranks…
As Zhao Lin was lost in thought, a member hurriedly rushed up the high platform.
“Gang Leader, something major has happened!”
The Evolver member, panting, ran to Zhao Lin, speaking urgently.
“What’s got you so panicked? Could it be that another force dares to attack our Yu Hua Gang?”
“Speak clearly after you’ve calmed down!”
Zhao Lin, returning to her senses, frowned and admonished briefly.
“Right, right, Gang Leader…”
The member, shocked, quickly composed himself, organized his thoughts, and spoke clearly, “Gang Leader, just now, while on a mission, I rescued several survivors from the mouth of a second-grade mutated fierce beast.”
“These survivors fled from the Li River Base City.
They said the Li River Base City has been overrun by a Corpse King.”
Corpse King? Li River Base City overrun?
Upon hearing such news, Zhao Lin’s stern face was filled with shock.
Seeing their gang leader’s shocked expression, the member continued, “In detail, those survivors weren’t clear, but it seems Li River Base City somehow provoked the Corpse King, leading it to incite a corpse tide and break through the Li River Base City directly.
However, strangely, the zombies under the Corpse King’s command seemed uninterested in these survivors, ignoring them even when they bumped into them, allowing them to leave.”
Hearing this, Zhao Lin furrowed her brows, realizing it must be Lu Chuan, surprised by how much had happened since she’d left.
It seems Lu Chuan must have suffered a setback this time; otherwise, given his character, he wouldn’t be so furious as to destroy a human base city.
Fortunately, Lu Chuan did not initiate a massacre this time, otherwise…
She didn’t know if Little Qiqi was hurt.
Suddenly, Zhao Lin thought of the adorable Little Qiqi, and couldn’t help but show a look of concern.
But after some thought, Zhao Lin deemed it unlikely that anything happened to Little Qiqi, as her abilities exceeded her own, making it hard to get hurt!
“Sigh～”
Finally, Zhao Lin sighed, smiling bitterly and shaking her head.
Why on earth did you provoke Lu Chuan!
However, thinking of Lu Chuan’s city-destroying move this time, Zhao Lin also felt a sense of urgency.
It seemed that her plans needed acceleration; otherwise, development in such a manner could lead to irreconcilable conflict between Lu Chuan and humanity, leaving both sides without room for maneuver.
By then, even if she achieved her ambition to become the leader of humanity, it would be nearly impossible to mediate the situation.
