Doomsday Descends: My Villainous Destiny

Chapter 44: Blood Bear

The subordinates showed a respectful expression as they saw Blood Bear come out.

“Sir!”

Blood Bear's subordinates used to call him “Boss,” but he felt that this title lacked authority and sounded too much like a common thug. So, he ordered his subordinates to call him “Sir.”

Blood Bear nodded and said casually, “The woman is dead.” Throw her far away; the smell of the corpse will attract zombies.”

The subordinates were taken back. How many women had Blood Bear already played to death? He was truly brutal! But given Blood Bear's physique, not many women could withstand such abuse.

The subordinates hurriedly entered the room and dragged the woman's corpse out. The woman was completely naked, covered in bruises and scars, showing signs of severe torture. 

She was quite pretty and very young, no more than eighteen, probably just graduated from high school. 

Her face still bore an expression of extreme pain, her eyes wide open, as if questioning why she had to endure such suffering.

But this is the harsh reality…

There are no fairy tales where a prince rescues her from the fire. Ninety-nine percent of the time, she encounters scum like Blood Bear. 

In the apocalypse, a beautiful woman without background or strength is destined to live a fate worse than death. Perhaps death is a form of relief for her…

Watching his subordinates drag the girl's corpse away, Blood Bear's expression remained indifferent, not caring about the life he had just taken. 

He couldn't even remember how many women he had played to death. Anyway, with so many people in the refugee, there were plenty of women. He could just pick another one.

At this moment, a scholarly-looking young man walked over respectfully and said, “Sir, the refugees in the eastern suburbs have also surrendered.”

His name was Song Bin. In the old days, he was a middle school teacher. When the apocalypse began, he abandoned his students and fled, avoiding the initial outbreak of zombies. 

Later, he awakened his talent and became Blood Bear's right-hand man, effectively the second-in-command of this refuge.

Blood Bear smiled upon hearing the news, “Very good.” Now, most of the refugees in Donghua City have fallen under our control.”

Blood Bear's eyes flashed with a sharp intelligence that belied his massive size. His real name was Qian Sheng, a street thug in Donghua City, but he unexpectedly awakened an A-level talent, specifically a highly powerful early-stage combat talent in the transformation category. 

With his A-level talent and ruthless tactics, he quickly became the leader of the refugee, with more than a dozen evolved people serving him, making his strongest refugee in Donghua City.

Initially, Blood Bear had no intention of expending effort to annex other refuges, but after learning about the existence of the Corpse King, he quickly changed his mind. 

He knew that the Corpse King was a valuable entity. He was already at the peak of a Level 1 Evolved. The energy crystal inside the Corpse King could undoubtedly help him break through to Level 2, possibly even directly to Level 3.

However, he was also aware that the Corpse King was extremely dangerous. Leading his subordinates to attack the Corpse King would result in heavy casualties, and someone else might swoop in to steal the prize. 

Therefore, Blood Bear chose to annex other refugees. Although it came at a cost, the refugees varied in strength and were far apart, and internal conflicts made it easy for Blood Bear to conquer them one by one.

Now, Blood Bear had more than forty Evolved people under his command. His plan was to lead these forty Evolved people to besiege the Corpse King, forcing the newly joined Evolved to attack first, and then he would claim the prize. 

This way, those untrustworthy Evolved would suffer heavy losses and be less capable of opposing him, and he would obtain the Corpse King's crystal.

If he could directly break through to a Level 3 Evolved, he would become the king of Donghua City and could establish a significant power. By then, even the Qin family in Dongdu would have to take him seriously!

People tended to think that someone with Blood Bear's build was all brawn and no brains. But Blood Bear was quite cunning. After all, bears in nature are known for their intelligence!

…

Donghua City, suburbs.

A shadow moved swiftly down the street, unnoticed by the occasional zombie. This shadow was the incarnation of Xu Chao's shadow.

Xu Chao's consciousness was projected onto the shadow, allowing it to move quickly and observe the surroundings. 

He had already learned about the recent changes in Donghua City. Blood Bear and his men were annexing other refuges, and now most survivors and Evolved people in Donghua City had joined him. 

This troubled Xu Chao, as he feared Blood Bear's target was the Corpse King. If Blood Bear and so many Evolved attacked the Corpse King, his own opportunity would be lost.

Xu Chao had seen Blood Bear from a distance before and knew his strength was formidable. At his current level, Xu Chao was far from being a match for Blood Bear. 

Regretting his wasted time indulging with Zhou Lan, he realized he had not left the bed much except to gather essential supplies. 

He had been too absorbed with Zhou Lan, having been single for twenty years and finally encountering a woman he could never have dreamed of in the old world.

At that moment, Xu Chao's shadow suddenly stopped because he saw a massive army heading towards Donghua City. A convoy of large armored vehicles, fully armed soldiers, and many Evolved people emitting dangerous auras!

Xu Chao was started and quickly deduced the origins of these people. They were from the Qin family in Dongdu! 

Given the strength of this force, only the Qin family in Dongdu could muster such power in the southeastern region, even within thousands of kilometers of Donghua City.

Xu Chao felt a deep unease. Dealing with Blood Bear was already challenging enough. Now, with the Qin family entering the fray, did he still have a chance?

However, Xu Chao suddenly thought differently. No, he still had a chance. If he could provoke conflict between the Qin family and Blood Bear's group, causing them to weaken each other, it would be his opportunity!

With this thought, Xu Chao's shadow moved towards the massive convoy. Since it was just his shadow and not his real body, and the shadow could regenerate infinitely, Xu Chao had nothing to fear. 

He was confident that his true self, hidden somewhere in the city, would not be discovered…
