In the meeting room of the Donglai District Inspection Bureau.
Ling Yi sat in the head seat, flanked by Penguin Cobblepot and Director Ron.
"Boss, the gangs in Donglai District will be wiped out in two days at most." Ron hadn't slept all night, but he was still in high spirits.
The immense power captivated him; last night, he was the one who committed the most killings. If it weren't for the system's Loyalty lock, this guy would probably have already lost himself in it.
Ling Yi looked at his system interface; his attribute values had reached 3,200 times that of an ordinary person.
Because of the Sharing Aura, Ron and the others' strength reached 320 times that of ordinary people.
Compared to a day ago, their strength has doubled.
Ron and the others were all intelligent people, so they naturally guessed some things. Ling Yi could become stronger by killing, and now that they had also received divine Divine Power from the boss, they could also become stronger by killing.
"Speed up, we must completely wipe out the entire Donglai District today." Ke Ling Yi wasn't too satisfied with Ron and his team's efficiency.
This is DC, Gotham City, which is just a beginner's village for Ling Yi.
He will likely face off against a powerhouse of Superman's caliber soon. If he's not strong enough, what will he do?
"I need you to wipe out all the gangs in Gotham City within a week. Those who leave Gotham City are no exception, but those who remain in Gotham City must be killed without mercy."
"Well, Boss, you should know the situation in Gotham City. Some gangs, especially the four major families, have intricate connections with Amai Chou's military and political leaders," Cobblepot said.
Seeing that Ling Yi didn't react, Cobblepot continued to explain.
" Gotham City became City of Sin, supposedly at the behest of some powerful figures. It's both a source of wealth for some and a testing ground for evil."
"We can take action against some smaller gangs, but we can't touch the four major families, otherwise we'll be going against Amai Chou's official stance."
After all, Cobblepot had King of Gotham City for a time, had contact with the upper echelons of society, and knew some secrets.
His biggest worry right now is that their actions will attract the attention of those Big Shot.
Ron scoffed, "What's there to be afraid of? As long as we keep getting stronger, what does it matter if we go against the entire Amai Chou? We'll just kill them all."
Cobblepot ignored him, but glanced at Ling Yi and said cautiously, "Boss, since you want to be the mayor of Gotham City, you'll inevitably have to deal with these people in the future."
"Otherwise, once those people are offended, the boss will only be a nominal mayor of Gotham City, and it will be difficult to advance further."
The Penguin could probably guess some of Ling Yi's thoughts, which is why he offered such advice.
Yes, killing can make Ling Yi stronger, and it can make Ron and the others stronger, but they cannot Wuji just to become stronger.
Otherwise, they will become the target of public criticism.
In fact, the Penguin believes it's best not to spread the news that killing makes you stronger, otherwise it will inevitably arouse the apprehension of many beings.
"There's another point: the assets and businesses of those gangs need to be reorganized. This is a huge pie; we can't just give it away for free, can we?"
He paused, then glanced cautiously at Ling Yi before saying, "Boss, darkness cannot be completely banished. Where there is light, there will always be darkness."
Seeing that Ling Yi didn't object, Penguin grew a little bolder and continued, "Instead of that, why don't we just take over all of the Gray Gang's assets and businesses?"
Ling Yi nodded; those gray cesium industries were indeed a huge fortune.
It's a real shame to just throw it away.
But if he takes it over and runs it himself, how is he any different from those Gray Gang?
Take laundry detergent, for example; the profit margins are unimaginably high.
Ling Yi didn't care about Amai Chou's overflowing laundry detergent. This wasn't Ancient Country; even if everyone used laundry detergent, it wouldn't concern Ling Yi.
However, by doing so, Ling Yi would become Gray Path Investment, thus placing himself completely on the opposite side of the Justice League!
Seeing Ling Yi frowning in thought, the Penguin continued, "Boss, you should know Superman and the Flash, right?"
Seeing Ling Yi nod, the Penguin continued, "These so-called heroes are actually our biggest problem. Once they find out that we've become stronger through killing, it will likely attract their attention."
" Batman who came to our door last night is the best example."
Ling Yi frowned; he felt that what the Penguin said made sense.
His own cheat-like abilities destined him to stand on the opposite side of these heroes!
However, I deeply dislike this relatively underhanded approach.
His extraordinary abilities destined him to walk a bloody path; there was no way he could afford to be cowardly.
However, the Penguin's words also reminded him.
After a moment's thought, Ling Yi nodded and said, " Cobblepot is right."
The Penguin was overjoyed to receive Ling Yi's praise, his face beaming with an undisguised smile.
He then instructed the two, " Gotham City is entirely under Cobblepot's responsibility. You will be in charge of the overall situation. You can focus on consolidating the legitimate industries first, but don't touch the grey cesium industry for now."
"We need to use the slogan of eradicating the darkness of Gotham City to clean up Gotham City, do you understand what I mean?"
The two nodded.
" Cobblepot, I need you to equip Ron with a thousand men as quickly as possible, a thousand men who are absolutely loyal, but only to me, Ling Yi. Do you understand what I mean?"
If the person Hypnosis by Cobblepot is loyal to Cobblepot but not to Ling Yi, then the system's cheat ability will be useless against these people.
Therefore, Ling Yi must emphasize this point.
Otherwise, given Cobblepot's mindset, he might actually make the person he Hypnosis loyal only to him.
Although their Loyalty reached 100%, their personality remained unaffected.
Ling Yi was not oblivious to the tension between the Penguin and Ron.
Ling Yi was worried that these two might cause some trouble.
"Boss, is anyone okay?" the Penguin asked.
"Yes, anyone is fine."
"At most two days, a thousand people will definitely be there," the Penguin loudly assured him.
Ling Yi looked at Ron: "Killing will make you stronger, but Cobblepot is right, we can't kill indiscriminately and Wuji."
"Therefore, I need you to go independent, build a force based on these thousand people, and go to places where there is war. Only on the battlefield can you act with Wuji."
Ling Yi's words surprised both Ron and the Penguin.
They all looked at Ling Yi with admiration.
They were all limiting their thinking to Gotham City, without considering anything beyond Gotham City.
But then Ron cautiously asked, "Boss, what if there's no war? There aren't many large-scale wars these days."
"Then let's take action against certain countries, such as the Radiant Water Country."
Ron's eyes lit up. "Boss, is that alright?"
"Of course," Ling Yi said with a smile.
But then he warned, "I am from Ancient Country, do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood, boss. All countries that oppose the Ancient Country are my targets."
Ling Yi nodded in satisfaction, then Human Dao, "I need to remind you that only those who are truly loyal to me can help you become stronger; others will not work."
The two nodded and made a note of it.
Ling Yi then said to the Penguin, " Cobblepot, your mission is to take control, starting with Gotham City. But Gotham City is just the beginning. I want the entire Amai Chou."
Penguin perked up and asked in a low voice, "Boss, do you want to become Amai Chou's CEO?"
Ling Yi smiled slightly, "Why not?"
Now that I've been transported to DC, to Gotham City, to Amai Chou, why can't I be Amai Chou's ruler for a while?
It would be quite interesting if a man from an Ancient Country like myself were to become the ruler of Amai Chou, the great ruler of the land.
" Bant, stay here. Everyone else, go about your business!" Ling Yi waved his hand.
Everyone nodded respectfully and then left.
" Bant, find a few professionals to be in charge of the Batmobile's maintenance," Ling Yi said to the fat Bant.
"OK."
The Batmobile requires maintenance, and it must be maintained by professionals.
He can't possibly have to take care of a car himself every day, can he?
After sending Bant away, Ling Yi got up and left the police station.
Ron and Cobblepot, one in the shadows and the other in the open, one responsible for boosting his own stats, the other his spokesperson, helping him stir up trouble.
In Ling Yi's view, this arrangement was already perfect.
As for what happens in the future, we'll see.
Meanwhile, in Gotham City, undercurrents were also surging because of Ling Yi.
If it were just a day ago, and only Ling Yi was powerful, it wouldn't have been enough to make the gangs in other areas wary.
However, once Ron's formidable strength with those seventy men was revealed, Ling Yi's threat level increased exponentially.
It is two completely different concepts for one person to become stronger and for one person to enable a group of people to become stronger.
On the top floor of the Luthor Corporation building, Luthor Lex stared intently at the documents his subordinates had brought back.
"This Ling Yi must have mastered some kind of technology that makes people stronger, perhaps it's gene technology, or perhaps it's some kind of drug."
"Truly a perfect warrior, with almost no weaknesses. His speed, strength, defense, and reflexes far surpass those of the genetically cloned warriors."
"We absolutely must get our hands on this technology."
"Water, Hali, don't touch my things."
Next to Luthor, a tall, beautiful woman with a ponytail, wearing a red and white T-shirt, blue denim shorts, was also looking through the documents on Luthor's desk.
"Tch, it's not like it's a confidential document, what's wrong with taking a look?"
"Everything here is confidential. If you rummage through my things, I'll have you thrown out," Luthor said, clearly displeased.
"If my darling wasn't here, I wouldn't bother coming," Hali said dismissively.
Luthor looked at Hali and suddenly gave a hysterical laugh.
"Let's make a deal. If you help me get the technology that Ling Yi has, I can not only speed up Jerome's treatment, but also inject him with the type 3 gene serum."
"Deal. Of course, mainly because I'm also very interested in this Ling Yi," Hali said, licking his lips.
