Chapter 954: Chapter 950: Do You Really Think I Would Be Merciful?

Because of Tang Ye’s words, the scene became eerily quiet, and Tang Ye himself was in no rush. His gaze calmly swept over everything before him, capturing the struggling expressions on the faces of each powerful individual. After about half a minute, he saw a man step forward, say nothing, and promptly remove his entire Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suit.

Afterwards, he neatly packed up the entire exoskeleton suit and placed it respectfully at Tang Ye’s feet, then he smiled at him with full respect and turned around to address the crowd of strong individuals behind him.

"Marshal Li is right. We were instigated by Jin Ye to come here and offend the Peace Party, causing such great damage to Marshal Li. It is our fault. Now that the Marshal is merciful and has not pursued our responsibility, we should not push our luck. Since the Marshal is interested in the Predator, then we should just give them to you. Brothers, let’s take them off together. After all, we received these items without paying anything, so we don’t lose anything by giving them away. It’s better not to cling to things that are not meant for us."

This man’s speech made the struggle on the other strong individuals’ faces even more intense. They really couldn’t bear to part with the suits, but didn’t dare to protest openly. Tang Ye’s display of power had already made it clear that although they were wearing Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits, they were useless in front of a Level 7 New Human. The latter could easily tear through the defense armor of the Predator Exoskeleton with brute force!

In the face of a Level 7 New Human, they felt no sense of security within their hearts. As for Tang Ye’s request for them to leave their exoskeleton suits behind, they had no other doubts, taking it as if Li Henian was truly interested in the Predator Exoskeletons themselves.

If he wanted to kill them, he could easily slaughter them all with the immense power he possessed!

Why would he bother with such a cumbersome act?

The only issue was the reluctance in the hearts of the strong individuals towards parting with their Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits. Where would they find such good battle suits if they gave these up?

Although the publisher of this covert bounty mission had ordered them from the Dongsheng Co-management, the strength of the suits indicated that the Predator Battle Suits were not cheap—they would cost at least a thousand Yajin. These thousand Yajin might be affordable for the high-ranking Bounty Hunters in attendance from the Mercenary Guild, but the Dongsheng Co-management was far too distant from their location!

This is the Apocalypse, not the time before the Apocalypse! There was no SF Express or STO Express, no courier companies dedicated to transportation. Dongsheng Co-management, being a superpower, could indeed make money from people of the United District buying Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits, but all the strong individuals present were independent entities. They wouldn’t buy several suits at once, and the price didn’t support buying multiple suits at once. Even if they could afford it, it would only be a few suits at most.

For instance, three Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits—their manufacturing cost is unclear; selling them could make a lot of profit or not so much. Their employers purchased in batches, thus making a substantial profit when paying a certain amount for shipment; Dongsheng Co-management was willing to journey the long distance to transport goods from there to the United District.

But why would the independent strong individuals present risk great danger to travel from Central China to the South China region to buy just one or a few suits? It was inconceivable.

Therefore, for these independent strong individuals to get a Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suit, they had to purchase in batches, just like their employers!

Of course, they could pool resources to make a purchase, but the issue was how these independent units could come up with so much Yajin. After all, even the shipping costs of the Predator employers’ suits were a mystery. Compared to spending a hefty sum to buy something, getting something for free is always more gratifying.

Following this individual’s words, there was silence for a few seconds more at the scene. Soon, the second Bounty Hunter to remove his Predator Exoskeleton Suit stepped forward, followed by the third, then the fourth—each one walking out one by one. In no time at all, there were several dozen Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits piled up at Tang Ye’s feet.

More and more people began removing their exoskeleton suits, motivating other strong individuals who had initially not wanted to part with theirs. Before long, the hundred or so bounty hunters present had all taken off their Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits, standing together neatly dressed in their combat gear.

With everything finally settled, Tang Ye’s calm face broke into a smile at this moment.

"Very good, thank you all for your trust in me."

Tang Ye raised his hand and gave a respectful bow to the formidable individuals before him, then turned and walked towards the front of the Snow Moon Pavilion.

Watching his retreating figure, the strong individuals began to buzz with conversation, until someone could no longer sit still and hurriedly called out, "Marshal, does that mean we can... "

"Attack! Leave no one behind!" Before the person could finish speaking, Tang Ye suddenly whirled around, and his expression was no longer calm, but filled with ferocity and killing intent!

His words instantly caused a change in the faces of those below!

"Damn it! Li Henian never planned to let us go!"

The mighty ones reacted swiftly, immediately taking action. But the Peace Party’s Level 4 New Human members and the groups of high-level zombies surrounding them were just as quick to respond. As soon as Tang Ye’s voice rang out, blood had already splattered amidst the strong ranks of the Mercenaries Guild!

The terrifying and incessant roars of zombies rose everywhere. One after another, massive strength-evolved zombies leaped like cheetahs, knocking down one strong individual after another to the ground. Without the protection of their Predator Exoskeleton Battle Suits, they were as fragile as thin paper. At the hands of the cruel high-level zombies, with no preparation, they were brutally torn apart on the spot. In just a matter of seconds, half of the hundred-strong force had fallen.

The shrill and piercing screams continuously assaulted people’s ears, the members of the Peace Party were as ruthless as the high-level zombies they fought alongside. The scent of blood spread wildly, the nauseating odor seemingly filling the entire area.

"Li Henian, you... you’re despicable. To think we trusted you so much, you don’t keep your word, I won’t let you off even in death!"

In the chaos, a Level 5 New Human struggled out of the frenzied mass of zombies, cursing Tang Ye as soon as he saw him, but before he could finish, a wide zombie claw emerged and harshly slammed down on his head, pressing him down, followed by a fountain of blood spraying wildly!

"Hmph!" Tang Ye let out a cold laugh, looking at the dismembered corpses scattered on the ground, he muttered softly, "This is the Apocalypse; what good is keeping your word? Did you really think I’d be merciful? I just didn’t want to do it myself. It’s too tiring."

Having said that, Tang Ye walked towards the Pine Smoke Hall, but before he could enter, there was a "boom", and the entire Snow Moon Pavilion collapsed! Only Xu Haishui and Tang Ye stood watching the ruins, silent for a long time.
