Strategist, Ambitious Man, and Yang Jia (Third Update)

As a newcomer, accompanied by three dogs, began to wander through this world filled with the bizarre and absurd, the others had already taken their places. Ruan Ruan rode her motorcycle to the north of the decaying neighborhood, parked her handsome and tall Ji Ji, looked around, and found a parking spot that wasn't easy to find. So Ruan Ruan got off the motorcycle, picked it up, and carefully put it down.

Looking around, I was very satisfied.

When people see me riding such a tall motorcycle, they often question my ability to get on and off or park it.

But they were all mistaken; they parked perfectly every time.

Not only are the parking standards perfect, but even in awkward spots, I can always easily drive my car out...

Or rather, move out.

Her expression relaxed, Ruan Ruan with her cute little backpack on her back, she skipped and hopped into this decaying kingdom. As the decaying and vast essence of the city rushed towards her, her eyes began to turn slightly red. However, unlike the Red Eyes Club, the redness in her eyes was a violent feeling of ruptured capillaries, with blood gradually staining her eyes red.

The rotting liquid on the ground was almost up to her ankles, Ruan Ruan carefully lifted her short skirt.

However, when I looked up, all I saw was an empty street with only writhing walls and rotting roads. There was no sign of any living thing. Occasionally, I would notice something watching me from behind the neon signs next to me, but when I looked up, it was gone.

"What kind of opponent did Mister Ye arrange for me...?"

Ruan Ruan couldn't help but frown. Facing the empty street, she gradually came up with an idea.

Everyone thinks I'm just a reckless brute, but little do they know, I'm actually a tactical mastermind...

So she rubbed her eyes and slowly squatted down.

The backpack behind her was carefully pulled to the front, shrinking into a Xiao Xiao ball in this eerie kingdom.

"Waaaaah..."

A soft sob began, Ruan Ruan looked small and helpless. "Where am I...?"

"How terrifying..."

"Is there anyone who can help me...?"

"..."

Bathed in a glow that seemed to carry a decaying quality, Ruan Ruan, nestled in the middle of the dark red street, looked like a lost little girl. Her Xiao Xiao figure, coupled with her frightened yet aggrieved voice, seemed to possess a unique allure that targeted a specific group of people.

At some point, writhing flesh began to appear on the walls on both sides.

Within this bizarre flesh and blood, strange, smiling faces began to emerge.

These faces stared Ruan Ruan at Ruan Ruan in the middle of the street, their eyes filled with greed and impulse. They slowly squeezed out from the wall, with tall bodies and huge bellies, completely naked. Not only were they not wearing any clothes, but even their human skin had been peeled off, leaving only dark red muscle tissue and blood vessels exposed in this eerie atmosphere.

"Splash..."

Thick, ugly calves waded through the blood on the ground, and excited, twisted hands slowly reached forward.

Intertwined on the Ruan Ruan top of her head, it was full of allure and trembling.

When they spoke, their voices were unusually sharp and thin:

"Little sister~~ who are you~~~~"

"..."

As they approached and their voices rang out, the Ruan Ruan sobbing suddenly stopped.

She raised her head and looked at the group of greedy, bloated monsters with eyes that were even more excited and greedy than theirs.

Suddenly, he stood up abruptly, pulling a large metal wrench from his backpack in each hand.

He chuckled and roared excitedly, "I'm your father..."

"Hurry up and kneel down..."

"..."

Thump thump...

These large-bellied monsters sensed something was wrong and immediately tried to escape back into the wall.

But Ruan Ruan had already shot into the air like a cannonball, looking down from above, and the heavy wrench slammed down hard.

In that instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, a gruesome sight.

In the northern region of the Rotten Kingdom, a horrific act of domestic violence suddenly unfolded.

On the other side, in the southern street of the Rotten Kingdom, Little Four silently peeked out from the shadows under the eaves. He cleverly scanned his surroundings and saw that there were windows on both sides of the street. The street was bright and bustling, but behind the windows were dark holes. He could not see what was inside, but could only feel a strange unease when he looked into them.

"The mutations that Mister Ye arranged for us should all be ones that we are good at dealing with..."

Little Four nimbly flipped over from under one eave and climbed to another. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he skillfully untied his belt and took the belt with a skull growing from the opening, slowly wrapping it around his arm.

"So, this is a test in itself, isn't it?"

"Let's see who can solve the problem faster and demonstrate outstanding ability..."

"..."

As he silently watched the slowly crawling street and the strange figures, he said expectantly, "Once this is resolved, Black Gate City will face a reshuffle. Before, Sister Hard and I were just little brothers running errands for the big shots, but once Boss Yang reorganizes the situation, I can at least... sit in the third seat in Black Gate City, right?"

"Make something of yourself..."

The Skull-Head Belt urged, "Why can't you try harder and directly take the second-in-command position?"

"?"

A Xiao Xiao excitement flickered in Little Four's eyes, but then he remembered Xiao Xiao's expressionless face and immediately snapped back to reality:

"Don't talk nonsense, the second-in-command position belongs to my brother Xiao..."

He said seriously, "People say I'm timid, but actually I'm very ambitious..."

"For example, right now, I'm ambitious and full of aspirations, wanting to compete with Sister Hard for the third position in Black Gate City..."

"... And then, I will loyally follow Boss Yang... and my Brother Xiao!"

"..."

"Tsk..."

Hearing these firm words, even the Skull-Head Belt was speechless for a moment, and clicked his tongue. "Fine..."

"A very ambitious person..."

"..."

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Also during their conversation, because they didn't consciously control their volume, countless things in the rooms on both sides were startled. From the dark windows, black shadows began to turn and look at them, and a faint commotion arose.

"They saw us..."

Little Four shrank back slightly, retreating into the shadows, and then said in a voice loud enough for everyone around to hear:

"Shall we begin the assassination?"

"..."

Splash...

Suddenly, bright red tentacles began to extend outwards from behind the surrounding windows.

But at the same moment, the shadowy figures seemed to come alive, moving rapidly and spreading throughout the area.

Within the shadows, flashes of cold, sharp light streaked across the sky. Little Four's figure appeared rapidly behind each black shadow, like a video with frames cut out. In one instant, he appeared in this window, and the next moment, he appeared in another. As his pale face emerged from the darkness, a knife wrapped with a sharp blade was already thrust forward.

Hiss hiss hiss...

One by one, necks were severed in an instant, and struggling figures fell out of the windows.

In the dark shadows, the ghosts begin to reap lives.

Meanwhile, in the east of the Rotten Kingdom, Yang Jia was walking on the top of rows of buildings.

In her slender hands, she held a huge head that was half the height of a person, and behind her lay a jumble of flesh and blood.

"Wasn't the pressure I put on you enough?"

As she walked slowly forward, she frowned and asked, "Why hasn't the aberrant leader that Mister Ye mentioned appeared yet?"

"Forget it, I can't waste my time here..."

"Then we don't care where you're hiding, just destroy the whole street..."

"..."

As she spoke, she stopped in her tracks, and the huge, rotting head she was carrying crashed to the ground.

The next moment, she slowly raised her hand, which was covered by a black glove.

The air in front of me began to tremble and distort slightly. The next moment, this distortion suddenly expanded and enveloped the buildings on both sides.

Those tall, solid buildings, the moment they were enveloped by this trembling air, shed all their appearances and turned into writhing flesh. However, compared to the essence of the city, the flesh here appeared noticeably dull, rotten, and bloated.

Yang Jia's pupils contracted slightly, and her fingers twisted like black flower petals.

The next moment, the entire block was as if struck by a massive earthquake, with buildings on both sides collapsing instantly.

At this moment, the rotting flesh was torn into pieces like egg drop soup, and countless screams and screams rang out from within.

"What a pity..."

Standing before the collapsed street, Yang Jia frowned slightly. "Our strength is still too weak..."

"Otherwise, I could directly distort the entire Rotten Kingdom, and I wouldn't need them to risk their lives with me..."

"..."

"..."

"Holy crap..."

Outside the decaying neighborhood, a huge video billboard displayed Yang Jia's figure standing on the broken walls and ruins.

Those now staring at the billboards are all people who have established themselves in foreign lands and even have a considerable number of followers. They harbor some doubts and resentment towards the fact that only four people are going to solve the problem of the Rotten Kingdom. However, even in front of their followers, even if they harbor hostility and a desire to laugh at the people inside, they all suddenly change color.

"Is this the power of the Branders?"

The old man wearing a black top hat said in a low voice, "It's terrifying. What she's doing is essentially using her power to directly harm the city's core. Even if it's just a rotten part of the city, it still represents her power. After all, a knife that can cut away rotten flesh can certainly cut away intact parts, or even kill the core..."

Those around him, hearing his worried words, dared not utter a sound for a moment.

After a long silence, someone finally said, "Putting aside those two brilliant strategists and ambitious schemers, Yang Jia's abilities are simply too strong..."

"Is she really going to inherit the Old Chairman's contract?"

"..."

The old man in the black top hat remained silent for a long time before whispering, "The terrifying thing about the Rotten Kingdom is that even the strongest individuals cannot completely eradicate it. Whether they can complete this mission depends not on their strengths, but on their weaknesses..."

"... What is that new guy doing?"

"..."

A murmur immediately broke out among the crowd, and after a long while, a stammering voice finally rang out:

"That... that guy..."

"... He actually... he actually started dancing again!"

I just had a big meal of braised pork knuckle in Nanjing, and I immediately started writing after getting back. Luckily, I made it in time.
