Looking at Caesar's corpse, Ye Guichen suddenly felt that this matter was not going to end so easily. There must be something he didn't know.
However, to others, Caesar had actually died at Ye Guichen's hands without the slightest chance to fight back.
This scene had completely shocked everyone present.
"Thud! Thud!"
After the sounds of kneeling, came waves of cheers, one louder than the other.
"Long live the Master!"
"You are our new Master!"
"Master!"
The sounds of the surviving mutants bowing brought Ye Guichen back to his senses.
Just then, the sound of helicopters roaring could be heard.
Ye Guichen looked up and saw a helicopter flying over from the sea, quickly landing on the huge square.
Soon after, more helicopters landed, eventually totaling ten.
Once the helicopters landed, countless troops rushed out.
They didn't pause for a moment, quickly dispersing to other parts of Atlantis as they got off the helicopters.
Among them, a middle-aged man got off one of the helicopters. It was Boss Bai, the spokesperson from the grand martial arts competition Ye Guichen had seen before.
"Uncle Bai!"
Upon seeing Boss Bai, Murong was first startled, then called out sweetly.
Boss Bai nodded at Murong, also feeling relieved. "Are you alright?"
Murong shook her head, suddenly frowning angrily. "Uncle Bai, what is going on here? How did you get the news so quickly?"
Boss Bai sighed with a wry smile. "Murong, actually, we rushed over as soon as we got the news. We didn't expect Caesar to die so quickly."
Then, Boss Bai's gaze fell on Feng Guoguo, his expression solemn and somewhat excited. "Mr. Feng."
Feng Guoguo, being one of the Thirteen Grand Protectors under Lord Military God, naturally had an extraordinary status. He nodded slightly, seeming to have a lot to say, but finally sighed. "We indeed underestimated the situation today. If it weren't for Mr. Ye, we might all have died here."
Originally, he had wanted to have a showdown with Ye Guichen.
But seeing how easily Ye Guichen killed Caesar, Feng Guoguo realized that even with much progress, he was still no match for Ye Guichen.
Feng Guoguo called Boss Bai aside and whispered something to him.
Boss Bai nodded continuously, occasionally glancing at Ye Guichen with eyes full of disbelief.
After a good fifteen minutes, Boss Bai bid farewell to Feng Guoguo. "Mr. Feng, leave this place to us. I will handle the rest. You can rest assured. I will report any results to Lord Military God as soon as possible."
Feng Guoguo patted Boss Bai on the shoulder and approached Ye Guichen. "Mr. Ye..."
Ye Guichen quietly watched them busy, not saying a word.
Seeing Feng Guoguo approach, he gave a faint smile. "Mr. Feng, your status has changed. Even Boss Bai from the corps is respectful to you."
His words carried a hint of sarcasm.
Feng Guoguo sighed with a wry smile and shook his head. "Actually, as soon as I discovered Caesar, I notified Boss Bai immediately. He rushed over, knowing that I would have a hard time dealing with Caesar. Yet, before they arrived, Caesar died at your hands. As for what happened to me, there are some confidential matters I cannot tell you. However, I will report your deeds today to Lord Military God, and I believe he will meet you personally soon."
Ye Guichen couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Feng, you are too kind. I just made a deal with Boss Mo and Dragon Teeth. What I did was part of the deal, though the cost of so many deaths is a bit high, don't you think?"
Feng Guoguo took two steps closer, sighing. "Mr. Ye, your exceptional talent has indeed impressed me, but sometimes, we have no choice. As the saying goes, 'don't meddle if it's not your position.' I must report the situation here to Lord Military God immediately. I believe we will meet again soon. If you have any questions, ask Boss Bai. He will tell you."
"Alright, I will ask him," Ye Guichen said without courtesy, cupping his fists toward Feng Guoguo.
Feng Guoguo quickly left in a helicopter.
Boss Bai's men moved swiftly, soon clearing out the mutants.
Whether they were killed or captured, Ye Guichen didn't care.
After sending off Feng Guoguo, Boss Bai approached Ye Guichen. "Interested in a chat?"
Ye Guichen knew that since Boss Bai had brought so many people, there shouldn't be any danger here.
Seeing Murong and the others looking at him, Ye Guichen smiled at them, then focused on Boss Bai. "I have many questions. I don't know your purpose or intentions. But since you made such a big move this time, even involving that old Murong guy's granddaughter, I believe you can give me a reasonable explanation."
"You know Mr. Mu?" Boss Bai was the one surprised now. Seeing that Ye Guichen had no intention of answering, he smiled awkwardly. "Come, take a walk with me."
His tone became much more polite.
Boss Bai took out a cigarette and tossed it to Ye Guichen.
Ye Guichen didn't hesitate, holding it in his hand.
Boss Bai lit it for him, then walked towards an alley beside the square.
This place was like a miniature city, with the sculpted square at the center. Ye Guichen had also passed through many streets and alleys when he arrived. Though most houses were closed, many doors were now open.
Ye Guichen realized that many ordinary people lived in those houses.
But every face was filled with fear, men and women, young and old alike.
As they walked, they encountered quite a few thousand people scattered around.
Eventually, they reached the other end of the island, where there was a small hill.
Many of Boss Bai's people had gathered at the foot of the hill.
"Xiao Ye, you saw it too. These people living here are mostly ordinary people captured at sea by Caesar. He wasn't just a pirate but also a devil. He used them as experimental subjects. You should understand how difficult gene experiments are to succeed."
"Behind those dozens of successful gene people on the square, who knows how many people died to produce those mutants?"
Though he spoke simply, Ye Guichen couldn't help but be moved. "Then why didn't you send the corps here directly to destroy this place?"
Boss Bai smiled bitterly. "Honestly, we did send people over, but they were no match for Caesar. After countless deaths and injuries, we still couldn't find him. So this time, we used the grand martial arts competition to draw Caesar out. Unexpectedly, he saw through our plan, causing heavy losses to our elites."
Boss Bai's face was bitter. "But fortunately, you turned the tide. Without you, I can't imagine what would have happened. I think you can guess Miss Murong's identity. If something happened to her, even eight heads wouldn't save me. Haha, I really have to thank you this time."
Boss Bai was about to bow to Ye Guichen in thanks but was stopped by Ye Guichen. "Boss Bai, no need to be polite. As I told Feng Guoguo, I was just following through on a deal with Boss Mo and Dragon Teeth. Now that the deal is done, I hope Boss Mo honors the agreement."
