Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

Chapter 81: Soft-heartedness is the most deadly disease, it must be treated!

The worker known as Liu Hong, standing at a height of two meters, had explosive muscles that stretched his clothes, making him particularly eye-catching.

Although he was the youngest among the six, the other five unconsciously stood behind him, their eyes showing a mix of awe and fear when looking at him.

Without needing to ask, it was clear that during their time trapped in the basement, Liu Hong had relied on his physical strength to become the leader of this small group.

When Liu Zimo checked the color of the lock shadows above their heads just now, he had already noticed.

This burly man with a blue lock shadow had traces of practicing the "Guiding Breath Technique". Not only had he entered the realm of martial arts, but he had also successfully reached the initial stage of the Copper Skin Realm.

On the other hand, Qi Zhaoming, who had a golden lock shadow, like the other four workers, had irregular breathing and clearly had not practiced the "Guiding Breath Technique". Even though he had outstanding talent, he was currently just a slightly stronger ordinary person.

"Another scheming boy!"

Liu Zimo shook his head slightly. In this post-apocalyptic world, he had seen too many selfish and self-interested people, so he was no longer surprised.

These people were just strangers to him, and he didn't have the habit of accusing others of moral flaws.

On the other hand, Qi Zhaoming, who had already become his "good brother," could receive some benefits later to help him enter the martial arts and earn cultivation and lifespan for himself.

Soon after, one minute after Liu Zimo returned to the living room, Liu Hong and Qi Zhaoming, along with the other four, came up from the basement one after another.

The sunlight outside was too bright, and they had to squint their eyes for a while before they could see clearly.

Seeing the sun hanging in the sky, the clear sky, and the absence of any demonic beasts or roaring sounds around, all six of them couldn't help but show expressions of excitement and joy.

Sure enough!

The homeowner hadn't deceived them. All the demonic beasts outside had disappeared without a trace, and the abnormal phenomenon of darkness had completely returned to normal. They were safe!

Liu Hong, the leader, showed a hint of coldness in his eyes after the surprise, and slowly turned his head towards Liu Zimo, Zhao Hongzhang, and Liu Zihao.

"Mr. Liu, the six of us have been guarding your house here for more than twenty days. You wouldn't have nothing to offer, would you?"

The other five people were stunned when they heard this, instantly understanding Liu Hong's intentions.

Three of them didn't hesitate to stand beside Liu Hong, also looking greedily at Liu Zimo and the other two.

"Liu Hong, you're going too far!"

"It was thanks to Mr. Liu's house that we were able to avoid the monster's attack. How can you repay kindness with enmity and ask Mr. Liu for benefits?"

"And you three, be clear-headed and don't betray your conscience!"

Qi Zhaoming and another worker reacted and angrily accused Liu Hong and the other three workers.

While speaking, they cautiously moved closer to Liu Zimo and the other two, seemingly wanting to unite against the four opposite them.

Liu Zimo stood still and watched the performance of the six with interest.

After binding Qi Zhaoming as his "good brother," Liu Zimo could easily eavesdrop on their thoughts, so he had long understood their intentions.

Behind him, Zhao Hongzhang raised his hand to stop Liu Zihao, who wanted to confront the others, indicating for him to stay calm and watch the show.

For Liu Zihao, who was still underage and hadn't entered society, it was not a bad thing for him to understand the wickedness of human nature in advance.

Obviously, Zhao Hongzhang also saw the ill intentions of the six.

However, with Liu Zimo present, the two of them had no need to take action.

Sure enough, when Qi Zhaoming and the other worker approached, without any hesitation, they simultaneously swung their weapons, hammers and shovels, directly hitting the back of Liu Zimo's head.

Liu Hong and the other four also took the opportunity to swing their weapons, swiftly attacking Zhao Hongzhang and Liu Zihao, aiming for their heads and throats.

Clearly, they were going for the kill.

From beginning to end, the six of them had no intention of letting Liu Zimo and the other two go.

If they had encountered three ordinary people today, under the siege of the six, they would have been in grave danger.

"It's really a pity. Isn't it better to live well? Why do you have to seek death on your own!"

Liu Zimo sighed lightly, and without even moving, he directly shattered the internal organs of the two behind him with his released qi.

Qi Zhaoming and the other worker fell to the ground like mud, instantly dead.

At the same time, Liu Zimo heard the corresponding prompt in his ear:

[Your good brother Qi Zhaoming harbored ill intentions towards you and severed the brotherly bond. Under your counterattack, he died on the spot, his soul returning to the heavens!]

[The 'Heaven Thief' innate talent passive has been triggered. You have inherited half of the remaining gifts from your good brother Qi Zhaoming before his death. Decoration skill +20, martial arts cultivation +2, spiritual power +3, soul strength +5.]

【Your good brother Qi Zhaoming has gone offline. Currently available binding targets (55/60).】

【Your good brother Zhao Ershun harbors ill intentions towards you, severing the bond of brotherhood...】

That's right.

Just as Liu Zimo sensed the evil intentions and murderous intent from the six workers behind him, he decisively bound the remaining five of them.

Whether it was a white lock or a blue lock, he had no pressure in dealing with the vegetables brought to his door.

It's just a pity for Qi Zhaoming, the golden lock shadow. If he hadn't brought it upon himself, Liu Zimo would have wanted to cultivate him.

"Little uncle, Haizi, I'll leave these four to you!"

"Remember, don't make a mess of blood, it's hard to clean up!"

Liu Zimo glanced at his little uncle and younger brother who were defending themselves, softly reminding them without any intention of helping.

For Zhao Hongzhang and Liu Zihao, who had long experienced countless battles, dealing with and counter-killing these four ordinary people who had never experienced any combat was simply too easy.

The only problem they had now was that they were too soft-hearted.

Facing their fellow human beings waving weapons at them, they, who had never killed anyone before, hesitated and couldn't bring themselves to strike.

Such hesitation and soft-heartedness were absolutely fatal in the apocalypse.

Therefore, Liu Zimo wanted to take this opportunity to make up for the shortcomings of his little uncle and younger brother.

In the apocalypse, being soft-hearted is the most deadly disease, it must be cured!

Otherwise, if they encounter similar situations in the future, they will undoubtedly lose their lives due to a moment of soft-heartedness.

Boom!

Boom!

After avoiding two fatal attacks, Zhao Hongzhang finally stopped hesitating. His figure shifted, exerting all his strength, and he slapped the chests of the two people in front of him.

Puff!

The chests of the two workers shattered, spraying blood as they crashed into the wall behind them. After convulsing for a while, they fell silent.

【Your good brother Li Tianming had a string of bad luck and died unexpectedly during a battle.

The 'Heaven Thief' talent attribute has been triggered passively, and you have inherited half of the remaining legacy gifts from your good brother Li Tianming before his death. Decoration skill +30, mental power +1, soul strength +2.】

【Your good brother Li Tianming has gone offline. Currently available binding targets (53/60).】

...

Ordinary people do not have martial arts cultivation that can be inherited, even the remaining mental power and soul strength are pitifully low.

However, Liu Zimo didn't mind at all.

After all, they were free vegetables delivered to his door, so he had to harvest them.

On the other side, although Liu Zihao also started to fight back, he had been hesitant and didn't dare to use excessive force.

Instead, Liu Hong and Liu Er, seeing their four companions all lying on the ground and pale with fear, knew that they had kicked the iron plate.

"Run!"

The two shouted in unison, smashing their weapons at Liu Zihao, taking advantage of his hand blocking, and turned to run.

However, before they could take two steps, their legs gave way and they collapsed to the ground, crying out in pain.

It was Liu Zimo who had broken their legs with a wave of his hand, pushing them back in front of Liu Zihao.

"Haizi, you're about to join the army soon, don't you know that showing mercy to your enemies is the cruelest thing you can do to yourself?!"

Liu Zimo's gaze fell on his younger brother's face, his tone serious.

"You must remember, the apocalypse is different from before. You must never have any kind thoughts or mercy towards your enemies at any time!"

"Kill when you should kill, cut when you should cut, without any hesitation!"

"Otherwise, they could turn into the most deadly venomous snakes and bite you in return!"

"These two people will be dealt with by you next!"

"In this terrible era, there are some things you must face and adapt to on your own!"

Liu Zihao nodded slightly with a pale face upon hearing this, but his body involuntarily took two steps back.

He knew that his older brother was making sense and doing it for his own good.

But facing two living people, he really couldn't bring himself to do it!
