The male supporting role was captured by the protagonist after his rebirth

Chapter 271 It’s not over yet

In the bloody blur, Deng Shentong stood not far away, looking at Zhu Yu calmly, with a sneer on his face. "Do you think it's just an ordinary bullet?"

Zhang Yi also came over, the space door behind him slowly closed, he looked at Zhu Yu, a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes. "This is specially prepared for you, a genetic toxin."

Zhu Yu's heart sank, she finally understood why Deng Shentong and Zhang Yi were so confident.

It turned out that they had planned all this long ago, taking advantage of her underestimation of the enemy and arrogance to set this deadly trap for her.

"You guys..." Zhu Yu gritted her teeth. She wanted to speak, but blood foam kept flowing out of her mouth. Her body had begun to tremble uncontrollably, and her vitality was rapidly draining away.

Light green light continued to flicker on her body, trying to expel the toxins from her body, but it seemed to have no effect.

Deng Shentong ignored her curse and continued, "This genetic toxin will quickly erode your cells and block the flow of your superpowers. The more you struggle, the faster the toxin will spread."

Zhu Yu felt a sense of despair, she knew that she was powerless to change the situation.

She tried to concentrate and launch a final attack, but her body refused to obey her and she could only fall slowly and stiffly.

"Zhu Yu, you lose." Zhang Yi said with a grin, his eyes were a little cold: "Now, tell us, what does that old man Zhu Zheng want to do?"

The girl's face was pale, blood was flowing from all seven orifices, and she looked extremely miserable and horrible. However, if one thinks of the countless aliens who died as food, she probably didn't deserve sympathy for ending up like this.

She endured the severe pain, spat a mouthful of blood foam on the ground, and said coldly: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Zhang Yi sneered and said, "It doesn't matter. We have plenty of time. You can take your time to think about it."

Deng Shentong walked up to Zhu Yu, squatted down, looked at her painful expression, and sighed.

"Zhu Yu, you didn't have to do this. We don't want to hurt you. As long as you cooperate, I can provide you with the antidote."

Zhu Yu simply closed his eyes and didn't look at the two of them.

"Quite loyal." Zhang Yi shook his head. "Hey, you are a clone, and you have no real blood relationship with Zhu Zheng. It's not easy for you to get to Ipsilon. Why do you have to listen to Zhu Zheng?"

"He is already in his seventies or eighties. If the young and promising Mr. Deng in front of you were to sit in that position, wouldn't he be able to provide you with more resources than Zhu Zheng?" Zhang Yi kept coaxing.

Zhu Yu was silent for a while, then slowly said: "I said, I know nothing."

Deng Shentong and Zhang Yi looked at each other, and he sighed softly: "Forget it, she may really not know that Zhu Zheng should have only issued an order to hunt me down."

In the absence of an antidote, the genetic toxin quickly corroded Zhu Yu's body. Soon, the eyes of the girl lying on the ground became stiff and cloudy, and her breath gradually dissipated.

"Wow? He died just like that?" Zhang Yi said in disbelief. He had never seen such technological means even in his previous life.

He looked at Deng Shentong with more and more admiration. If there had not been that accident that year, perhaps this brilliant man would have given a different ending to many things that happened later.

But the most fortunate thing is that he now finally has the opportunity to stand beside Deng Shentong and watch this man personally create a new era for him.

"The Jiangnan region is already in a weak position, and Zhu Zheng has gone crazy. He actually wants to get rid of you. Isn't this cutting off one's own arm?"

Zhang Yi looked at the corpses on the ground that were gradually buried by the blizzard and said in amazement.

Deng Shentong said calmly: "He is not crazy, he just craves power too much. I am different from you. Your threats to him were not as direct as those of my Deng family."

"People like Zhu Zheng who are in high positions are more aware of the cruelty of the end of the world. Only by mastering enough power can they ensure the continuation of their family."

Zhang Yi was silent for a moment, then said: "Doesn't he know that doing this will lead to a greater disaster?"

Deng Shentong shook his head and said, "After all, the invasion of the underground civilization is a matter for the future. Before that, he will naturally focus on consolidating his own power."

"Well." Zhang Yi sneered, "It's good for him to make such a stupid choice. It's better for him to step down earlier. There are many people who are more suitable for this position than him."

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, Deng Shentong's eyes became deep. He did not respond immediately, but quietly watched Zhu Yu's body being gradually buried by the wind and snow, as if thinking about some deeper issues.

"Zhang Yi, have you ever thought about..."

Deng Shentong suddenly spoke in a dull and slow voice, "If I replace him, will I become like him?"

Zhang Yi was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "How is that possible? You are different from him."

Deng Shentong shook his head and said, "The environment of the end of the world will change everyone. Zhu Zheng once vowed to work with the Deng family to govern Blizzard City, but now he has no scruples about attacking his allies. Maybe one day, I will follow the same path."

Zhang Yi was silent for a moment. He understood that Deng Shentong's words were not alarmist. In this apocalypse, the struggle for power and resources often makes people lose themselves.

"So what?" Zhang Yi suddenly smiled, "I like you no matter what you become."

Deng Shentong was choked and turned his head away unnaturally, saying coldly: "Stop fooling around and talk about business."

Zhang Yi took a deep breath, his eyes firm: "I'm talking about serious matters."

Deng Shentong looked at him with some inquiry in his eyes, smiling, as if waiting for him to say something.

Zhang Yi met Deng Shentong's gaze without any retreat. Instead, he smiled more calmly.

He knew what Deng Shentong was waiting for. Proud people always need constant recognition from those close to them.

"Deng Shentong, you know, I chose to follow you not because you are the head of the Deng family, nor because of how powerful you are."

Zhang Yi's voice was low and firm. "I believe in you because of who you are. You have ideals, ambitions, abilities, and bottom lines. These are things that people like Zhu Zheng can never achieve."

Deng Shentong listened quietly without interrupting him.

"I know that the environment in the end times is very cruel and everyone is struggling to survive."

Zhang Yi continued, "I admit that I don't have much ambition, but you do. You have the ability to change the outcome of this world and build an empire that can truly allow mankind to survive."

Deng Shentong's eyes moved slightly, as if he was touched by Zhang Yi's words.

"As for power..."

Zhang Yi smiled and said, "Power itself is not wrong. The wrong thing is those who are corrupted by power. I believe you will not become a person like Zhu Zheng, because there are things in your heart that are more important than power."

Deng Shentong was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Do you really trust me so much?"

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "Yes, I believe you."

Deng Shentong looked at Zhang Yi deeply, then sighed and said, "Zhang Yi, you think too highly of me. Power will change a person, this is inevitable."

Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "No. Although my character is not very good, I am a good judge of people. You are not one of those people who will do anything for power. You have your own bottom line and principles."

Deng Shentong was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Am I not using your ability now?"

Zhang Yi, however, made a very exaggerated expression and shouted, "Oh! What are you talking about? We are an old married couple and yet you are still so distant. Isn't it natural for me to do things for you?"

Deng Shentong was stunned for a moment, then he smiled. He patted Zhang Yi on the shoulder and said, "Okay, you are aware of this. When you go back, report to the Heavenly God Squad!"

Zhang Yi approached Deng Shentong with a smug look on his face, and his hands had already unceremoniously grasped his slender waist through a layer of combat uniform: "What, I passed the test? Are you willing to admit that I am your man?"

Deng Shentong immediately frowned, his delicate eyebrows slightly raised: "If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people who can do it. If you keep making jokes, you will be the substitute!"

"Hey, hey, hey, no, no... How can you let others do it to you..."

"Zhang Yi!!"

Seeing Deng Shentong's snow-white cheeks flushed with shame and anger, Zhang Yi restrained his rogue spirit and his eyes became serious again:

"Ahem! That's right, we have to go back as soon as possible to stabilize the situation in the Jiangnan region. Although Zhu Yu is dead, Zhu Zheng's remnants are still there. We must prevent them from counterattacking and harming the Deng family."

Deng Shentong pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid he has already captured my uncle. I'll contact Chunyu and the others to destroy the locator first, so that Zhu Zheng's men won't intercept him on the road."

"Okay..." Zhang Yi was about to say something in response, but when his eyes turned, he noticed something was wrong.

The wind and snow had completely covered Zhu Yu's petite body, forming an inconspicuous human shape.

"No, there's something wrong!"

Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly became sharp. He stared at Zhu Yu's body covered by the wind and snow, his brows furrowed.

"What's wrong?" Deng Shentong noticed something strange about Zhang Yi and immediately became alert.

"There's something wrong with this corpse." Zhang Yi whispered, "Zhu Yu is a Black Chariot-level alien. Even if she's dead, it's impossible for her to not feel any energy fluctuations like she does now."

Deng Shentong immediately understood what Zhang Yi meant when he heard this. He quickly looked around, and there was an unsettling silence in the air.

"You mean..." Deng Shentong's voice was very cautious.

"I'm afraid Zhu Yu is not that simple." Zhang Yi said with certainty, "She must have a backup plan."

At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake slightly, as if some huge force was approaching.

"Not good!" Deng Shentong and Zhang Yi realized at the same time that the situation was not good.

They quickly retreated, keeping their distance from the snow-covered corpse.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise, the ground shook violently, and a huge crack appeared under Zhu Yu's body. Then, a huge figure slowly rose from the crack.

It was a huge white beast, as big as a mountain, and it exuded a heart-pounding aura.

Its eyes flashed with a faint green light, staring at Deng Shentong and Zhang Yi.

"Isn't this the dead white cat?" Zhang Yi's face changed slightly, and he was somewhat shocked by the scene happening before his eyes.

Deng Shentong focused his eyes on the two huge long tails behind the resurrected "White Ghost" and said with a sigh, "How could I forget about this?"

Zhu Yu absorbed the power of Bai Guijiu's resurrection, and also inherited the remaining three lives.

So now the giant beast has two tails on its back, which means she has to be killed twice.

It’s far from over…
