My MCV and Doomsday Novel - Chapter 541

Chapter 541: I Must Kill You

“Captain Jiang hurry up and hand over the core! It’s very unstable. The Black Hole may break out again,” said Han Yuan urgently. At the same time, the battle tank got closer.

Suddenly, a gunshot sounded, and a bullet mark appeared on the ground in front of the battle tank. Zhang Hai had appeared out of the window, holding his gun. He was stared at Han Yuan angrily and shouted, “If you get any closer, what I’ll shoot next won’t be the ground!”

Upon hearing Zhang Hai’s words, Han Yuan and Wan Yiling were stunned. It had never crossed their minds that an ordinary survivor would dare to threaten a general.

Despite shouting and threatening a Major General, Zhang Hai was quite calm. In his mind, only Jiang Liushi’s words mattered. No matter who they were, if Jiang Liushi gave the order, Zhang Hai would shoot at once. A general was not an exception. Let alone Han Yuan, whose title was conferred to him. They had already killed Commissioner Chu, a genuine military-raised official, back in Shenhai Island. Compared to him, Han Yuan could be regarded as a piece of cake.

Wan Yiling may have been looking down on the Shi Ying Squad because it was a survivors’ team, but she was unaware that before their eyes she was not any better than a puny ant.

Han Yuan looked at him nervously and said, “Shi Ying Squad! What’s this supposed to mean? Do you want to keep the core for yourselves? The core is a ticking time bomb! You might hurt the people around you at any time. Also, you can’t use it! If you hand it over right now, I’ll pretend this never happened. I will even help you gain more benefits.”

Han Yuan was a man full of arrogance and confidence. In his mind, only his group had the abilities to develop and explore the Energy Body of Black Light. The core was useless to anyone else. Han Yuan believed that Jiang Liushi was a smart man and he would make the right choice. Naturally, if Jiang Liushi were to refuse, that would mean that he was disobeying direct orders and didn’t take other people into consideration.

After Han Yuan’s revelation, the spectators felt nervous and afraid.

“Captain Jiang you’d better hand the core to General Han. After all, General Han must have the means to deal with it. Moreover, if our comrades hadn’t sacrificed their lives to weaken the Black Hole, it would have been impossible for you to kill it,” blurted Tang Cangyun.

The crowd had clearly witnessed how Jiang Liushi’s team had saved all of them. When they heard Tang Cangyun’s nonsense, they were angered and felt ashamed, but nobody was willing to say anything.

Tang Cangyun sneered in his mind. Initially, he had been worried that Jiang Liushi would be unfavorable to him for all he had done. But to Tang Cangyun’s surprise, Jiang Liushi was so arrogant that he dared to threaten General Han. Therefore, Tang Cangyun didn’t waste such a good opportunity to bootlick Han Yuan.

“Captain Jiang, the core does not belong to you. You have no right to keep it,” said Tang Cangyun. He believed that Han Yuan would not mistreat him in the future. His performance was satisfying enough.

Wei Feifei stared at Tang Cangyun angrily. In her mind, Tang Cangyun was a despicable person.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Hai raised his gun and aimed at Tang Cangyun. In turn, Tang Cangyun got an ominous feeling, and he instinctively tried to flee.

“Don’t you dare!” shouted Han Yuan in anger.

Unfortunately, his threats fell into deaf ears.

In the next second, a gunshot sounded!

Tang Cangyun, who was about to flee, felt his body turning stiff once again. He could only stare in terror at Zhang Hai who had pulled the trigger. Then, the bullet stuck Tang Cangyun’s chest and smashed his heart, causing him to fly like a kite without a string and fall to the ground. Tang Cangyun’s were opened wide due to shock while his body convulsed on the ground before stopping forever. He had never expected that the Shi Squad would have dared to kill him in front of so many people.

Han Yuan’s expression was sensational as he was staring at the minibus coldly.

“You actually dared to kill one of my subordinates in front of me!?” said Han Yuan angrily.

Tang Cangyun’s death was equivalent to slapping Han Yuan’s face. Initially, he could have rescued Tang Cangyun, but he was locked down by the black sniper rifle’s muzzle extending from the circular room on top of the minibus. Behind the sniper rifle was Jiang Liushi, who was quite calm.

“Jiang Liushi…” whispered Han Yuan coldly. He knew that if he were to move, Jiang Liushi would not hesitate to kill him. Between saving Tang Cangyun or preserving his life, Han Yuan’s choice was crystal clear. The fact that he had been forced to make a decision annoyed him greatly. It had been a long time since anyone had dared to treat him like a small fry, especially after becoming a general. Han Yuan could not help but wonder where Jiang Liushi, a mere ordinary survivor, had found the courage to treat him like that.

At that moment, Jiang Liushi spoke, taunting Han Yuan. “Do you really want the core? In your dreams!”

Upon hearing that, Han Yuan’s pupils shrank.

Wei Feifei snapped of her stupor and turned to look at Jiang Liushi. She was worried about him as his last remark had destroyed any chances of salvaging the situation. Although the Assault Team had suffered heavy losses, there were still many soldiers, as well as weapons. Jiang Liushi had only a handful of teammates to support him. The power gap was quite big.

At the same time, many soldiers that regarded Jiang Liushi as their savior were worried about him. They all sighed in their hearts because of Jiang Liushi’s stubbornness. Most of them felt that Jiang Liushi should have handed the core. Then, Han Yuan would have no reason to ruthlessly kill him in front so many people. After returning to the Safety Zone, the Shi Ying Squad would even get a lot of resources for their immeasurable contribution.

But now, Jiang Liushi’s action was equivalent to sending a knife to Han Yuan’s hands. However, Jiang Liushi didn’t care about this at all, and he was still quite calm. After all, Wan Yiling was the one who had schemed to steal his minibus first. Naturally, to deploy her plan, she would have asked for Han Yuan’s permission. No matter how polite they acted now, Jiang Liushi had already decided to punish them.

In Jiang Liushi’s mind, Han Yuan was already a dead man. It was just a matter of time before Jiang Liushi killed him.

“It seems that you refuse my kind intentions,” said Han Yuan, simultaneously he signaled at Wan Yiling with his eyes.

Wan Yiling immediately picked up her walkie-talkie and ordered the soldiers to get ready for battle. Soon, the battle tanks arrived one after the other, their cannons aiming at the minibus.

Jiang Liushi commented as if had not noticed the tanks at all, “Well, if a person was talking to me, I would naturally appreciate their kind intentions. But since it’s you we’re talking about, a dog that only knows how to bark, I feel disgusted even with the idea of believing a word coming out of your mouth.”

“And you…” Jiang Liushi suddenly looked at Wan Yiling.

When their eyes met, Wan Yiling felt afraid as Jiang Liushi’s gaze was similar to a predator’s that had locked on its prey. Although she was scared, Wan Yiling tried her best to calm down. After all, in her eyes, Jiang Liushi was an ordinary survivor. How could she be afraid of him?

“My sister is dead because of you! You deserve to die!” screamed Wan Yiling in anger. Jiang Liushi smiled coldly and stopped paying attention to her.

“Jiang Liushi it seems that I have to arrest you for the crime of insubordination. It’s a shame as you’re a talented man. Originally, I wanted to clear any misunderstandings in a civilized way, but you’re forcing me to act,” said Han Yuan. He wore a sad expression, but a murderous glint still escaped his eyes.

Wei Feifei’s face turned ashen white. She thought that the minibus could not withstand the tanks’ fierce attacks.

“Run!” shouted Wei Feifei. She had already decided to leave this place with Peach. Jiang Liushi had saved them, and even though she was unable to help, she still tried her best to do so.

Jiang Liushi heard Wei Feifei, but he didn’t run away. Instead, he turned to look at her with a smile.

“Hurry up!” shouted Wei Feifei again.

Jiang Liushi replied in a calm and gentle voice, “We will be okay. You should take cover first and take care of yourself.

Wei Feifei opened her mouth to speak, but she couldn’t find the right words. From Jiang Liushi’s tone, she could tell that he was confident.

“Han Yuan, you should better worry about your life. Do you think that you’re safe just because you can rely on the military to protect you? You’re wrong!” said Jiang Liushi.

“It’s a shame that I must kill you today!” added Jiang Liushi, releasing a murderous aura.

Han Yuan was shocked. But he was confident in himself. He believed that he could conquer everything as long as he was under the military’s protection.

At that moment, Han Yuan opened his eyes wide as a loud noise came from the minibus’ engine. Then, black smoke billowed from the minibus’ exhaust pipe as it darted toward Han Yuan’s team!

“Is he crazy?” Han Yuan found the scene unbelievable.
