The End of the World: Chaos

Yang Yi stood quietly, the only remaining pistol in his hand had lost its original deterrent effect, but it still exuded a bit of pressure. The five survivors stood respectfully by, their faces condensed into a complex mixture of anxiety and expectation.

"Give them a chance." Yang Yi muttered to himself, as if trying to find an excuse for his tolerance.

At this time, Quicksilver and Wanda came from the depths of the castle. Quicksilver looked a little anxious, while Wanda seemed calm and unhurried, and the tacit understanding between the two was obvious, as if they knew the coming storm.

"Yang Yi, we are back." Quicksilver spoke in an urgent tone, "The situation is critical, and we need your help in the rear."

"I know." Yang Yi nodded, then turned to the five survivors, "However, first let me see what has allowed you to survive until now."

One of the survivors was eager to try, so he took a trembling step forward: "I... We are ordinary people, and we have no ill intentions. If we can get your help..."

"Humph," Yang Yi sneered, a hint of sarcasm flashing across his eyes, "You actually thought I would help you because you are harmless? Have you ever reflected on yourselves and realized that what you did was not out of greed and desire for more power?"

Everyone held their breath and no one dared to speak, fearing that they would become the next sacrifice if they disagreed. Quicksilver and Wanda looked at each other, both of them knew that they were confused, but they didn't know how to break the dilemma.

"Don't panic." Yang Yi's voice revealed a bit of teasing, "I am just observing you. Those who have experienced so many trials of survival in this castle must have extraordinary talents and wisdom to support you!"

"But we...we really don't want to be your enemy!" Another survivor pleaded sincerely, "We are willing to work together, maybe we can find a win-win solution!"

"Cooperation?" Yang Yi raised his eyebrows, his eyes sharp, "If you are sincere, why not tell me your plan? I will consider it carefully."

"We can go out and lure the enemy away," a survivor suggested cautiously, "You can take this opportunity to achieve your goal. And there are not many people tracking us, so this is a good strategy for hiding."

"That's right." Yang Yi thought for a moment, then turned his gaze to Quicksilver and Wanda, "What do you two think of this strategy?"

Wanda shook her head slightly, but Quicksilver couldn't help but ask: "The progress of this matter is not optimistic. How can we ensure that they will not strike back at the critical moment?"

"You are stupid." Yang Yi turned his head suddenly, his eyes were sharp and shining with a cold light, "In this cruel game, who can guarantee anything? Beliefs are nothing but useless ideals."

"But we..." The survivor wanted to explain again but was interrupted by Yang Yi.

"Enough, time is running out." Yang Yi waved his hand to stop the survivors from speaking. "Is your fate in your own hands, or is it determined by me? You stand in front, and the rest are just spectators."

Quicksilver's expression was sharp, thinking of taking this opportunity to break the deadlock, so he turned to the survivors and said, "You should know that it is not us who want to fight, but we want to survive more."

"Quicksilver, don't..." Wanda hurriedly reminded, but was stopped by Quicksilver's impulse.

"I am not trying to fight you, but to show that I can be the help you need! If we can survive, maybe we can help you solve bigger problems!" Quicksilver's voice was like a long-suppressed flame, finally breaking through the shackles.

"Enough!" Yang Yi's voice was like thunder, shaking the castle. Quicksilver was startled, and was about to say something, but he saw Yang Yi's expression suddenly change, and a soft look flashed in his eyes.

"I like such fighting spirit." Yang Yi spoke slowly, with a smile on his face, as if his anger just now was just the beginning of a drama. "Then let's see if your value is worthy of it."

"Everything depends on the results." He glanced at the remaining survivors, hoping that someone would express their opinion.

At this time, the brave survivor once again summoned up his courage and asked: "We pledge to unite and defeat a stronger enemy together! We are also willing to help you find one of your goals.

"I am willing to agree to your request, but you must remember," Yang Yi approached quietly, the corners of his mouth barely raised, but his eyes were cold, "If you betray me, you will end your life and there will be no chance of recovery."

"We would never dare!" the other survivors chimed in, pledging their allegiance.

"Okay, wait for us to start." Yang Yi ordered, his eyes gleaming with the glory of a winner. At that time, the shadow of the corridor had not faded, but it seemed that an undercurrent was surging.
