My Doomsday Bug Nest

Chapter 23 Head of the Self-Defense

Force

“It’s a beautiful day.”

Ling Yichen stood on the balcony and looked up at the sky. The scorching sun was not hot yet.

It was now May, and the temperature was gradually rising, especially at noon. With this temperature, one couldn’t even think about spending the day happily.

Especially at this time of the apocalypse, most people did not dare to turn on the air

conditioner, afraid that the sound of the air conditioners would attract monsters from the outside world.

This made many people suffer. The damn weather was indeed too hot. Their bodies

would become sticky after sleeping for a night. At most, they would turn on the electric fan in the house.

Moreover, in hot weather, viruses were more likely to breed. A large number of corpses was very likely to cause a plague.

Once the plague broke out, if humans could not raise their immunity to a sufficient level through cultivation, they would definitely die in the dirty and chaotic environment of the apocalypse!

At this moment, anyone with half a brain had already begun to prepare for the future.

For example, they would store clean water at home, charge their batteries, or live more frugally. They could only eat as much as they wanted every day.

Those with some courage were already dealing with zombies or mutated creatures at this

moment.

At the moment, it was already very difficult to encounter a zombie at Mortal Body Rank-1, unless it had just been infected.

Therefore, humans who had become Awakened ones yesterday had a very high status at this moment. Many people would often say good things about them in an attempt to obtain protection and Origin Crystals.

Now, many people had yet to realize that the times had changed. There were still people who agreed to provide these out of respect. They didn’t even think about how they had risked their lives to get resources like Origin Crystals! After a simple breakfast at home, Ling Yichen brought the three girls down the building. As for the little succubus, Ling Mengmeng, he kept her in the Insect Nest Demiplane. It was not safe to leave her alone at home.

However, when everyone went downstairs, the residents of the nearby building were already waiting downstairs. When they saw Ling Yichen and the others coming out, they came over one after another.

Tsk, how troublesome.

As soon as he saw these people, Ling Yichen knew what they wanted to do. He had already heard about the news in the group chat from Ming Xianwan, but the two of them did not pay much attention to the tags in the group chat. It was as if they had not seen the news at all.

Those people did not add Ming Xianwan as a friend. One could only send private messages to friends on WeChat, so they could not successfully send a private message to her. Ming Xianwan did not care about the list of friend requests. She knew that this group of people had added her because they had found out that she lived opposite Ling Yichen.

“Little brother, your name is Ling Yichen, right? Hello, hello. We’re all neighbors who live

nearby.”

“Yes, yes, yes. We’re all neighbors. We have to help each other.”

“Although we’re not very close, we’re still

neighbors, right? Can you see if you can help us?”

“Yichen, did you awaken your talent? Did the slaughter of those monsters downstairs yesterday have something to do with your talent?”

“Look, you should have obtained a lot of Origin Crystals, right? Can you give us some?”

As soon as the group of people came out, they chattered non-stop, causing Ling Yichen to

frown.

He guessed that this group of people would definitely come to seek his protection and help, but he really did not expect them to block the

door here.

It seemed that these people were really

frightened yesterday. That was why they organized themselves early in the morning and

waited downstairs. If they waited for Ling Yichen to go out, they might have to wait for a

long time.

“I’m not obligated to help you. You can go

back.”

He did not make a move. Instead, he only used

words to persuade them to retreat. This was

because this group of people was only begging Ling Yi Chen and did not do anything else.

Upon hearing Ling Yichen’s answer, the surrounding people frowned slightly. Some of them had unfriendly expressions, but they did

not say anything.

At this moment, a man in a suit smiled and

said, “We’ve formed a Self-Defense Force. Yichen, you’re so strong. Do you want to join

us? No matter what, we’re from the same district. Neighbors help each other. I heard that you’re a very helpful person. You must not

want so many of our neighbors to be harmed by those monsters, right? Besides, we might be able to help you in the future. We have so many people, don’t you think so?”

It was obvious that this person was good at

public relations. There was no problem with this sentence. He even mentioned Ling Yichen’s good points. If one thought about it carefully, the meaning would be obvious. It was nothing more than expressing that there

were many of them and asking him to consider

it carefully. Moreover, there was a faint sense

of moral kidnapping.

It was not that this group of people mindlessly

of

thought that he could not defeat so many them. After all, someone had already connected the insects in the district to him just now. They

probably saw that the insects had jumped out of his window.

What they meant was that with so many of

them, no one could predict if there would be someone stronger than him in the future. They wanted him to consider whether he should offend so many people at once.

In China, connections were very important.

This man in the suit was probably used to it when discussing business. He was used to interspersing words that were easily misunderstood. Even if Ling Yichen could tell, the man in the suit could explain that Ling

Yichen was thinking too much, and that he didn’t mean it at all.

However, the thoughts of the man in the suit

were based on ideas from peacetime, not the apocalypse.

In the apocalypse, connections were important, but not everyone was qualified to have a

relationship with him, Ling Yichen, unless it was the group of future powerhouses in his impression, or the people who had helped him before he was reborn.

What about this bunch of ugly people in front of him?

They were just engaging in wishful thinking!

Ling Yichen ignored them and said to the three girls, “Let’s go.”

When the man in the suit saw this, he could

not help but feel a little anxious. He quickly blocked the path in front of Ling Yichen and

the others. At the same time, he wondered if young man did not understand.

this

Could it be that he did not care that there were

so many of them and that they could also become Awakened ones in the future? Currently, the entire world knew that everyone

had the chance to become an Awakened one. Those with talents were called Evolvers. These two titles were universal. Everyone became a little anxious. In their

anxiety, some aunties and old men who were good at arguing and were unreasonable began their daily operations.

“Hey, what’s wrong with you? Isn’t it just a few Origin Crystals? Moreover, joining the Self-Defense Force is good for all of us!” “How stingy. You don’t even want to give a few

lousy Origin Crystals. Don’t you know how to help each other?”

“Look at how poor and selfish you are. Serves

you right that your parents were killed by a

car!” Ling Yichen’s gaze turned cold, and the aura on his body instantly surged. That kind of awe-inspiring killing intent could be felt even by this group of people who had never experienced killing. Moreover, all of them shivered in unison.

Ling Yichen glanced coldly at a certain auntie

in the crowd and pointed at her.

“Kneel down and apologize to my parents! Otherwise, die!”

She was the one who insulted his parents just

now.

It was a blatant threat. No one had expected Ling Yichen to be so unyielding. The auntie also felt very embarrassed. Although she was a little afraid of Ling Yichen’s

current aura, she didn’t seem afraid at all on

the surface.

“So what if I scolded your parents? I did! What can you do to me?!”

Could it be that this kid really dared to kill him?

What kind of international joke was this?! Swoosh!

A cold light flashed past. The auntie’s cursing mouth immediately stopped moving, and her

eyes were still filled with disbelief.
