The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 1349 823: Niu Ma: Do You Know Xia Kai?

"I never let my subordinates suffer a loss. But if you slip up again, go to the sewer and eat shit with Hou Taotao."
After speaking, Liu Zheng rushed toward the direction where the Blood Worm Gu had flown.
He couldn't unleash his ultimate move right now, but he could still manage regular battles.
After all, most of his combat power came from Extraordinary Items, and if he really couldn't win, he would use them and just get reimbursed from Green Shade Culture later.
"Boom!"
After dashing for a short while, Liu Zheng heard a massive explosion.
He glanced back, a scorching fireball illuminated the entire night sky, with the phantom of the Four Symbols Sacred Beast swirling in the flames.
"Hope Niu Daji's treasure armor is tough enough."
Liu Zheng offered a prayer for his chief underling and then continued to charge toward the enemy.
Soon, he saw the enemy who had always been hiding in the shadows.
To be precise, he saw the enemy's corpse.
This was a male humanoid creature wearing a silk robe, covered in Dragon Scales, with facial features showing Dragon Transformation traits.
At this moment, his corpse had been gnawed by the Blood Worm Gu into a thousand wounds, the surface of his body resembling a honeycomb.
Liu Zheng suppressed his nausea and prepared to pick up the corpse when the Blood Worm Gu immediately drilled out of the holes to "look" at him.
Feeling the malice from these Gu worms, a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"You were bred from my blood, and you want to slay the master? Come on, I want to see if you have the ability."
Liu Zheng drew "Anger" with one hand and grasped the Anti-evil God Grenade with the other.
Even though he didn't know what this "Gu God" was, as long as it was against him, it was evil.
The Blood Worm Gu faced off with him for a few seconds before finally turning into a puddle of foul blood on the ground.
"Smart move."
Liu Zheng picked up the shattered corpse and hurried back to the group.
"How's Da Ji?"
Seeing Niu Da Ji lying on the ground, he asked with concern.
"There are some burns and soft tissue bruises on limbs and head, nothing serious, applying some medicine should suffice. There's also minor internal bleeding and moderate concussion, but given Brother Niu's constitution, it shouldn't be a significant issue, just rest for a while."
Bai Tianshi said after a preliminary diagnosis.
"Boss, I'm fine."
Niu Da Ji cooperatively said, though his eyes were misaligned, not focusing on Liu Zheng.
"I'm not fine!"
Panda said indignantly.
It called forth the Yin Yang Qi Flag, the Lesser Yin Sunflower Water Flag was in slightly better shape, only scorched at one corner, while the Lesser Yang Xiguang Banner had half of it burned off.
It didn't say much, but just lay on the ground with limbs spread out, eyes rolling around at Liu Zheng, clearly implying it wouldn't get up without a proper explanation.
This was also one of the successful tactics Panda used on its master, with a success rate of over seventy percent.
"Alright, alright, I promise I'll fix your flag, okay?"
Liu Zheng promised.
"That's more like it."
Panda got up satisfied.
"Ah Bao carry Da Ji, Tianshi carry Lin Pinru, Luo Ping carry Lin Huang Jiao Jiao, I'll cover the rear, let's go."
Under his arrangement, everyone orderly retreated from the Shangpin Mansion and returned to the spirit car.
Liu Zheng searched that corpse but didn't find anything useful, and the robe on him wasn't considered an item.
"Fool, you've been played."
Panda said after searching the corpse a bit.
"Oh?"
"There's not a trace of soul left on him, clearly not the main body, probably a clone or flesh puppet or something."
Panda said.
"Mages are hard to kill. Nevermind, completing the task is what matters."
Liu Zheng didn't really mind.
Since there was no personal grudge between them and his side suffered no casualties, letting it go was fine.
"Everyone worked hard, these are Chairman Lin's wife and daughter?"
The bug man approached.
"That's right."
He nodded.
"Then..."
"Take Lin Huang Jiao Jiao's corpse back, Lin Pinru is seriously injured, I'll take her for treatment first, and notify you to come when her condition stabilizes."
Liu Zheng said.
"Actually, our company also prepared medical personnel."
The bug man said.
"This is the youngest deputy chief of the trauma department in the hospital, are your people more professional?"
He pointed at Bai Tianshi.
"No, not really."
The bug man said with a bitter smile.
"Relax, I promised to hand her back to you and won't go back on my word. To be honest, I'm even a shareholder in the company."
Liu Zheng said.
Previously, Green Shade Culture had granted him seven million in company shares and secured a contract guaranteeing the shares wouldn't lose value for three years, all to bring him aboard.
It's undeniable that this was a shrewd maneuver; as long as Green Shade Culture maintained its integrity, Liu Zheng naturally would prioritize collaborating with them.
"Very well, let us all hope for Miss Lin Pinru's swift recovery."
The man referred to as the bug man stated.
"You are indeed the chairman's assistant, demonstrating remarkable eloquence. I hold high expectations for you; the next time a vote is held for a new chairman, I shall cast my ballot in your favor."
Liu Zheng remarked playfully.
"Should that time ever arrive, I shall reciprocate by voting for you as well."
The bug man responded with a grin.
"Excellent, then let us establish a dual chairman system. I shall assume the role of the senior chairman, and you, the junior chairman."
He declared.
"Haha, Mr. Liu possesses quite the sense of humor."
Despite the somewhat lavish arrangement, Liu Zheng still had the bug man officially sign for the goods received.
The neon-lit metropolis at night presented too many perils, and the significant commotion at Shangpin Mansion could potentially draw unwelcome attention. The mage from earlier might even make a reappearance.
He escorted everyone back to the clinic. Doctor Nile, having been informed beforehand via a phone call, promptly ushered Lin Pinru into the operating room, with Bai Tianshi entering to provide assistance.
