Chapter 3: Me and the Boss, Just Right
Xia Yan was now so frightened that she was dumbstruck, staring blankly at the ferocious man in front of her.
It wasn't until she saw the man unbuckling his pants that she snapped back to reality.
Such things happened every day inside the shelter.
However, Xia Yan absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen to herself.
Absolutely not!
She didn’t know where the strength came from.
Xia Yan reached into her pocket and pulled out a syringe.
With a sudden motion, she thrust it towards Zhao Qiang’s groin!
“Ah!!! Damn it! My little brother!”
Zhao Qiang covered his lower body with one hand while pointing at Xia Yan with the other.
“F\*ck you! Get her turned around for me! Damn!”
Upon hearing this, the lackeys were overjoyed.
Normally, Zhao Qiang ate the meat, and they just got a little soup.
Every time, they had to wait for Zhao Qiang to finish first, then they took turns in a sequence, each getting their release one after another.
But today, there was an opportunity to go first?
The target was none other than Xia Yan, the nurse whom everyone had been coveting for a long time!
For a moment, several lackeys’ eyes gleamed with animalistic desire as they scanned Xia Yan’s body.
Her full breasts, slender waist, and exaggerated peach-shaped hips were enough to drive them crazy!
“Brothers, I’m going first!”
“Bullsh\*t! I’ve been with the boss the longest. I should go first.”
“Get lost! If I didn’t have the key to open the door, would we even have this chance? I’m going first!”
The four lackeys began to argue over who would go first.
Zhao Qiang, while massaging his groin to ease the pain, angrily cursed:
“Damn it! Lao San, you go first! Stop dawdling!”
Lao San, being singled out, smiled with joy.
Ignoring the disappointed expressions of the other three, he grinned lewdly and rubbed his hands together as he approached.
“Little nurse, beautiful girl…”
“Come on, give your big brother a chance! Hehehe.”
But this time, he had learned from experience.
Lao San grabbed Xia Yan’s hand as she waved it around aimlessly.
Then, he slammed it hard on the ground, causing the syringe to fall from her hand.
“Beauty, big brother’s here! I’m dying to get at it, hahaha…”
Xia Yan struggled and resisted, but the man’s disgusting mouth was getting closer and closer!
Was this really the only way? Could she not escape such a fate?
Xia Yan felt a surge of despair in her mind.
Just then, a shadow suddenly descended from the sky.
Boom!!
A huge sound echoed from the rooftop.
The powerful shockwave kicked up a cloud of dust.
Lao San was so startled that he lost his footing and instinctively scrambled toward Zhao Qiang.
At this moment, Zhao Qiang, too, stood up nervously, holding a gun in his hand and staring at the approaching shadow through the dust.
Gu Fan’s gaze swept across the scene.
Five men, one woman.
Hmm… there was no need to think too much about what would happen next.
It was clear that an 18+ scene would unfold.
Indeed, women in the apocalypse didn’t have good outcomes, especially the beautiful ones!
“Who… who are you?”
Zhao Qiang’s voice trembled as he raised the gun to question.
Gu Fan frowned and stretched out a hand, pointing.
A wave of dark, sinister energy instantly invaded Zhao Qiang’s body.
The next moment, the evil energy surged!
Zhao Qiang was shocked to see the hand holding the gun engulfed in black flames!
There was no pain!
He could only watch as the black fire spread from his hand up his arm, covering his entire body.
In an instant, terrified screams filled the air, but they quickly stopped within a few seconds.
In less than five seconds, all that remained on the ground was a pile of ashes.
“Did I tell you to speak? And you still dared to point a gun at me?”
Gu Fan grinned wickedly.
If one ignored his strange attire and youthful face, he looked like a carefree young master.
Everything happened so quickly that no one had time to react.
After a moment of silence, Lao San, terrified by Zhao Qiang’s gruesome death, hurriedly retreated.
He would rather face a zombie than be burned to death by this eerie black fire.
“Oh? You still dare to run? Did I let you move?”
Gu Fan smiled as he casually pointed again.
A wave of sinister energy shot out.
Black flames reappeared, this time without even a single scream.
The lackey known as Lao San was instantly reduced to a pile of ash.
At this point, the remaining people at the scene were quiet.
Everyone breathed heavily in terror, afraid they might be next.
Gu Fan nodded in satisfaction, continuing to observe the group of people.
Three men, each one looking as if they were suffering from kidney deficiency.
They were probably men drained by alcohol and debauchery.
Such people usually had weak willpower and were incapable of bearing important responsibilities!
Of course, there were always a few exceptions.
Gu Fan's gaze moved to the woman standing aside.
Hmm, not bad.
There was anger and unwillingness in her eyes.
Anger was good, unwillingness was also good—this was what motivated someone!
This was the belief needed to survive!
But nowadays, belief alone wasn’t enough; one had to be ruthless!
Not only ruthless towards enemies, but also ruthless toward oneself.
Gu Fan could modify one’s physical strength, but one’s willpower and mindset had to be honed by oneself!
Thinking this, Gu Fan smiled widely and clapped his hands.
“Sorry to interrupt, everyone. Recently, I’ve been selecting subordinates, the kind where I tell you to die, and you die.”
“Now, I’m giving you a fair competition opportunity!”
“I don’t care who dies or who survives; I only know that the last two standing here will be the ones who get to live.”
“Of course, you can refuse, but... I suppose I don’t need to say more about the consequences.”
With that, Gu Fan waved his hand, and four daggers dropped to the ground.
“I’ll count to three, and then we officially begin!”
“One!”
At this moment, Xia Yan’s mind was buzzing, the threat of death drawing nearer with each passing second.
This was different from the threat she had faced with Zhao Qiang earlier.
The man in front of her seemed to be smiling, but he was truly a vicious and evil person.
She had once seen a serial killer who murdered indiscriminately.
Comparing that man to the one in front of her was like comparing a child to an adult.
“Two!”
Her heart suddenly constricted, and Xia Yan heard a voice in her mind constantly telling her.
You can’t die!
You must survive!
Use any means necessary, at any cost, to be the last one standing!
In the next moment, she no longer felt nervous!
Her mind cleared up.
Her eyes scanned the ground.
The daggers were in the middle, and she absolutely wouldn’t be the first to grab them!
Then her eyes shifted to the ground beneath her feet.
“Three!”
As the voice fell, the four people instantly moved.
The three men rushed to grab the daggers on the ground.
Xia Yan, however, crouched first and grabbed the syringe next to her foot!
She thrust it forcefully into the neck of the nearest man.
The man didn’t expect Xia Yan to have such a thing in her hand.
A terrible scream instantly rang out!
Xia Yan’s hand moved up and down, thrusting several times before snatching the dagger from the man’s hand and slashing it across his neck.
Looking up, she saw the other two men already struggling with each other over the daggers.
Without saying a word, Xia Yan stepped forward, stabbing the man on the upper body in the neck.
The man stiffened, giving a “hiss-hiss” of agony, clutching his neck before falling to the side.
As a nurse, Xia Yan was very familiar with where to strike to cause instant death.
The remaining man saw this and was delighted.
“Great job, Nurse Xia! Thank you so much! Now it’s just the two of us…”
*Pffft!*
Xia Yan’s eyes were red as she thrust the dagger again and again.
Until blood bubbles appeared in the man’s mouth, his face full of unwillingness and confusion.
“Why... why... there were supposed to be two of us…”
Xia Yan pulled the dagger out and, with her bloodstained hand, flirtatiously tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
Then, she raised her red lips slightly.
“Why?”
“Because the boss said... the last two standing will live. Me and the boss, doesn’t that sound just right?”
“You…”
The man tilted his head and died on the spot.
Xia Yan stood up, and she added a few more stabs to the two men she had taken down, ensuring there were no accidents.
After confirming that all three men were breathless, she breathed heavily and leaned against the wall for support.
She didn’t dare sit down because what Gu Fan had said was that the people who stood would survive.
In this battle, she had barely managed to survive.
Gu Fan clapped his hands, smiling as he leisurely drew the souls from the fallen men and swallowed them.
“Not bad, but your strength was a bit lacking.”
Gu Fan grinned as he walked past her.
He reached out and patted her shoulder.
Xia Yan felt a surge of energy flow into her body, and her previous exhaustion vanished in an instant.
“Do your best!”
“By the way, from now on, you must call me ‘Master’!”
