Chapter 49:1 Reasoned With You, But You Fought With Me?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Do you have a problem or something!?”
Zhang Chengcheng started cursing the moment she opened her mouth. Her words weren’t particularly harsh, but they hit the mark.
Despite usually being a devoted fan of Lu Ming, Zhang Chengcheng, as the second-in-command in the Zhang family’s gathering place, was a beautiful and stylish woman. She was efficient and straightforward in her work, and her temperament was bold and vigorous.
While speaking, she walked forward with her eyes glaring, but she was stopped by Wang Xiong.
Standing in front of Zhang Chengcheng, Wang Xiong looked at Brother Shen and his group, and asked in a deep voice, “What do you mean, brother?”
“What do I mean? Are you deaf? Or don’t you understand human language?!”
Cheng Shen pointed at Wang Xiong and shouted, “Let me say it again. If you touch my things, you’ll have to compensate! Women, cars, I want them all! Do you understand now?”
Wang Xiong’s expression immediately darkened.
“And what if we don’t give?”
Heh… you can give it a try.”
As he spoke, Cheng Shen clenched his fists and slowly walked towards Lu Ming and his companions.
Seeing that the battle was about to break out, Lu Ming took a step forward and said earnestly, “Sir, I think some of the things you said are not quite appropriate.
For example, you said that the food here belongs to you. That’s not right.
“The things here belong to the Zhang family’s gathering place. And the lady beside me was originally the second-in-command of the Zhang family’s gathering place. Of course, the original Zhang family’s gathering place was democratic, and the things didn’t belong to any individual, but to everyone.
“Now that the Zhang family’s gathering place has been destroyed, the things inside are ownerless. We can take them, and you can take them too.”
This was also why Lu Ming was unwilling to argue about the ownership of the supplies just now—it was fine for anyone to take ownerless items.
“Let’s take another step back and say that Mr. Li Zitong on your side theoretically has a portion of the ownership of the supplies. As for Ms. Zhang Chengcheng here, on our side, she also has ownership rights over a portion of the supplies.
“So, friend, as you can see, look, there’s no problem with either group taking the supplies here.
Since we’ve bumped into each other now, I’m inclined to let each side take as much as they can. What do you think?”
Lu Ming’s lengthy speech left everyone stunned.
Wang Xiong opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say.
Zhang Chengcheng was also stunned for a moment before nodding after some thought. “Brother Lu makes sense. Assuming that ownerless items belong to oneself, how is that any different from robbery?”
As normal people, under the condition of having enough food and drink, they wouldn’t resort to robbery.
Lu Ming glanced at Zhang Chengcheng in agreement and nodded. “My words definitely make sense, and I’m the most reasonable person.”
After saying that, Lu Ming looked at Cheng Shen again. “Don’t misunderstand. Our reasoning is not the same thing. I’m really reasonable, and your reasoning is fake.”
Lu Ming was indeed reasonable.
He was unwilling to engage in fights, and if there were fights, it was only out of necessity. If he did not kill others, he would have to die himself.
Lu Ming believed that even in the apocalypse, reason should prevail among people.
After all, with justice on your side, you could travel the world…
Fighting and killing were dangerous! It was best to avoid them if possible.
After a moment of confusion, Cheng Shen burst out laughing.
He laughed so hard that he doubled over.
After laughing for a minute, Cheng Shen raised his head, pointed at Lu Ming, and scolded him jokingly, “Are you an idiot?! Huh?!”
Lu Ming frowned. “Why are you still insulting people? We’re being reasonable.”
“Reason?! Why should I reason with you?! My words are reasons!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Cheng Shen had already stomped on the ground and shot towards Lu Ming like a cannonball.
When Li Zitong saw this scene from behind, he immediately closed his eyes helplessly.
Because Cheng Shen was a Level 2 Awakened…
In his view, with Cheng Shen’s strength as a Level 2 Awakened, he was enough to crush everyone present. The fate of Wang Xiong, Zhang Chengcheng, and the others was self-evident.
However, he did not see the stunned expressions on Wang Xiong and Zhang Chengcheng’s faces when they witnessed this scene.
A hint of strange light flashed in their eyes…
They were well aware of Lu Ming’s strength.
Although they did not know how strong Cheng Shen was, no matter how strong he was, he could not possibly be Lu Ming’s match.
When Brother Lu reasoned with you, you didn’t listen and resorted to violence…
Even if you sought death, this was not the way to do it.
Cheng Shen was confident that he could completely control the entire scene…
This was because he was ‘well aware’ of the background of the people opposite him.
Cheng Shen had already heard from Li Zitong about the Zhang family’s gathering place.
Wang Xiong and Zhang Chengcheng were both Level 1 Awakened. As for Zhang Ye, who was a Level 2 Awakened, he did not appear here, it was highly likely that he was dead. He was also a Level 2 Awakened, so he naturally knew how terrifying the zombie wave caused by his advancement was. Few people could survive under the pursuit of the Hunters, so Zhang Ye’s fate could be easily deduced.
To a Level 2 Awakened, a Level 1 Awakened was like a little brother.
As for Lu Ming, he had also heard about him from Yu Fei and Bai Lu.
The one from Guangping Street.
Wang Xiong had also evaluated that Lu Ming was not as strong as him.
Therefore, it was very easy to determine the difference in strength between the two sides.
On his side, there was one Level 2 Awakened and four Level 1 Awakened.
Over there, there were three Level 1 Awakened.
Although he had Li Zitong as an unstable factor, the absolute strength of a Level 2 Awakened was enough to overwhelm everything!
As for whether there would be Level 2 Awakened ones among the opponents…
Cheng Shen didn’t think so.
Definitely not!
It was still the same thing.
The danger of advancing was too great. Were Level 2 Awakened individuals so easy to come by?
The distance of less than ten meters was crossed by Cheng Shen in a split second. He threw a piercing punch at Lu Ming’s face. At the same time, bone spikes protruded from Cheng Shen’s fist like daggers.
This was Cheng Shen’s superpower.
In Cheng Shen’s expectations, this punch was enough to blow Lu Ming’s head off and it could also serve as a deterrent.
At that time, the military vehicle and the beautiful female Awakened would all be his—he would have a new toy for tonight…
While he was indulging in thoughts of his absurd nocturnal life, a tremendous resistance stopped Cheng Shen’s movement.
Stunned, he looked ahead.
He saw that Lu Ming in front had already extended his hand, gripping his right wrist tightly, rendering him completely immobile!
Die!
Cheng Shen shouted. The bone spikes protruded and shot towards Lu Ming’s eyes like bullets, but Lu Ming dodged them with a tilt of his head…
Cheng Shen was stunned again.
Lu Ming’s eyes slowly turned bloodshot.
“Wait…”
He sensed that something was wrong. Just as he said the word ‘wait’, Lu Ming interrupted him.
“You’re trying to kill me.”
The feeling of restraint on his hand became stronger and stronger.
Cheng Shen had already noticed that his wrist bones were beginning to groan.
Correspondingly, the blood vessels in Lu Ming’s eyes increased.
His tone became colder and calmer.
“You’re trying to kill me.
If you hit me with your fists and stopped at the stage of fighting, then the bone spikes are equivalent to you stabbing me with a dagger. You stabbed a vital spot like the head. The bone spikes that flew out in the end are equivalent to firearms. You’ve already hit me with a gun…”
He had already used a gun. Lu Ming did not even dare to think about what would happen in the future!
Self-defense!
Counterattack!!
The instinct for survival made Lu Ming hold nothing back.
Using the techniques he had learned from Wang Xiong, Lu Ming suddenly swung his right fist and punched Cheng Shen’s temple ruthlessly.
There was a loud “crack” sound.
His huge head was violently sent flying, but Cheng Shen’s body remained in front of Lu Ming.
Blood spurted out from the gaping wound the size of a bowl.
The broken cervical vertebrae burst into the air.
The bloody and violent scene made everyone fall silent.
Lu Ming followed up with a hard kick at Cheng Shen’s chest.
First his head, then his heart!
When facing such a violent assailant, Lu Ming had no possibility of showing mercy..
