Doomsday Descends: My Villainous Destiny

Chapter 11: The Harsh Reality

Li Han got his wish and passed through the checkpoint. Then, there was a gunshot, and the internet celebrity with two million followers disappeared. Both legally and physically, he was gone.

After this incident, the people on the bridge became very quiet and well-behaved. No one dared to say anything about Qin Jun and his group's blatant display of privilege as they were scared.

During peaceful times, people like Qin Jun seemed no different from ordinary people. They had to queue at the airport, wait at red lights while driving, and even had to yield to unreasonable elderly people in public.

But all of that was just a facade, a performance. They put a veneer of false gentleness over the world, creating a fairytale land for ordinary people.

Then once their fundamental interests were threatened, they would tear off that facade and reveal the brutal, bloody reality.

In times of crisis, a team of soldiers came to fetch Qin Jun. He didn't need a pass to leave the quarantine zone, and there was even a private plane waiting for him.

But these ordinary people could only stay in the quarantine zone and wait for death. Even if they had done nothing wrong, but that's the way it is. People's lives have different values.

To some people, one of Qin Jun's hairs was worth more than these tens of thousands of lives. Chen Zhong remained expressionless, but there was a hint of pity in his eyes.

He knew that in the apocalypse, privilege would be even more terrifying than it was now! The emergence of evolved humans would create a clear distinction between higher and lower classes.

Some evolved humans even believed they were the new humanity, while those who hadn't awakened were mere pigs, fit only to be enslaved!

But Chen Zhong's pity lasted only a moment. In the apocalypse, pity and compassion were luxuries. To survive, learning to be cold was a mandatory course.

After passing through the checkpoint with An Mian, Chen Zhong saw the brightly lit world beyond. It was like another world compared to the quarantine zone!

Though Chen Zhong knew very well that it was not safe outside either. In a few hours at most, the military’s blockade would be breached, and everything would turn into a hellscape!

His gaze then fixed on a high tower—Jiangjing’s landmark building, the Oriental Tower! 

According to his memories from the previous life, tomorrow the SSS-level talent seed would appear there! 

He was only one step away from his rise to power!

…

Beside Qin Jun, Zhao Yi said in a low voice, “The plane is ready. I’ll have people escort you to the military airport.”

Qin Jun shook his head and said calmly, “No rush.”

Zhao Yi was taken aback. Given the critical situation, he didn’t expect Qin Jun not to be in a hurry to leave! 

If Qin Jun wasn’t worried, Zhao Yi certainly was. If anything happens to Qin Jun, Zhao Yi would be in big trouble!

Zhao Yi quickly advised, “But Chairman Qin instructed…”

Qin Jun interrupted him, “I’ll explain it to my father.”

Seeing Qin Jun’s firm stance, Zhao Yi couldn’t insist and had to nod. The situation was so critical that now was the best time to escort Qin Jun away. 

If the situation deteriorated further, it would require more resources and manpower to get him to the airport. Who knew how many lives would be lost because of this young nobleman’s whims?

“And another thing.” Just as Zhao Yi was thinking about arranging security, Qin Jun’s voice came again.

“Commander Zhao, I don’t like people questioning my decisions, no matter their reasons.” Qin Jun smiled at Zhao Yi.

His smiling look sent a chill down Zhao Yi’s spine! A real power player in the garrison command, feeling a twinge of fear towards a young man in his twenties.

Zhao Yi took a deep breath and nodded, “I was out of line. I’m sorry.”

This scene left An Mian, following behind, dumbfounded. She had met Zhao Yi before, a real power player in the Jiangjing Garrison Command, and even her father was very polite to him.

But here, Zhao Yi was being scolded by Qin Jun without the slightest bit of anger, even looking fearful?

Only then did An Mian start to understand what Qin Jun meant when he said he could do whatever he wanted just because his last name was Qin….

At that moment, Qin Jun turned around and pointed at An Mian and the others with a smile, “These are my… friends. Commander Zhao, arrange for them to be protected. Without my order, no one is to leave.”

Hearing this, Chen Zhong’s heart sank to the bottom. This wasn’t protection, it was clearly detention!
