Chapter 403 His Wife
Chapter 403 His Wife
"Gavin, Gavin, we were wrong, we really know we were wrong, please let us go, we really didn't know anything."
"Yes, Gavin, he's the one who killed your parents. He's dead. You can't lay a hand on us anymore, Gavin. We haven't wronged you. Please, don't kill us."
“It’s all his fault, it has nothing to do with us, Gavin. You have to believe us. We raised you, and we’ve done our part, even if we haven’t done anything special.”
Seeing how quickly they severed ties with that person and were still shifting blame onto each other, Gavin felt that he had lived a life that could be described as more than just foolish. He did not let these people off the hook; they were clearly all involved.
They plotted to kill his family, seize his property, and try to control and destroy him. How can we accept this, how can we forgive them, when the truth has only been revealed today!
Chen Ping gave him the chance to take revenge himself. Killing people in the apocalypse was not difficult. Even the bystanders did not blink. Blood splattered and the noisy crying stopped.
Chen Ping handed the video to Gavin, letting him think about what to do next.
When Lu Yize learned about these things, he didn't react much. However, after hearing that Gavin had killed his father and mother, he temporarily decided not to kick him out of his team.
If he hadn't killed these people, and even intended to protect them, he would have thrown them back to Xiyue without hesitation.
These people were dealt with, and Gavin got his house back. When he returned to his two-bedroom apartment, he found it had been completely messed up.
Of course, it was crowded for a dozen or so people to live in this 60-square-meter room, which inevitably led to arguments and fights. Some even planned to find a lover at the base and settle down, but the people of Nanling weren't stupid.
They wouldn't even look at this outsider. He has nothing, and his character is terrible. He's a whole family of oddballs. They can't find a girlfriend, so they have no choice but to squeeze into this small house.
They were a bunch of people who weren't exactly friendly to begin with, so living together naturally made them even more chaotic. They hadn't lived in the house for long before it was completely ruined.
Gavin didn't want to use the things they had used anymore, so he simply smashed them all and renovated. When he broke open the bed, he actually found a large box of crystal cores and gold jewelry on the floor.
Looking at these gold and silver ornaments, Gavin understood everything. These were assets they had taken back from his family, as well as resources they had plundered from him after the apocalypse. He never expected them to return in this form.
Gavin took a deep breath and continued smashing the other furniture. He also found a considerable amount of property scattered around, enough for him to live a carefree life in this apocalypse.
After smashing up the entire house, Gavin posted a renovation job on the bulletin board in the center of the base. He was quickly accepted, as he offered a very generous reward.
There are many talented people in Nanling, among whom there is a beast whose design drawings are particularly good. Gavin heard about it and specifically sought him out for design drawings. As for decoration, the base has a professional decoration team, and the fees are not too high.
The design drawings were completed quickly. Gavin chose a new Chinese style decoration, which he quite liked. After settling the final payment, he handed the drawings over to the decoration team. Zhu Lei glanced at them and replied, "You can move in within three days."
Gavin breathed a sigh of relief, paid the deposit, and then went to his landlord to request an early termination of the lease.
His story had already spread throughout the base, and many people sympathized with him. His landlord was even more of a beast in human nature; after all, anyone who could afford to rent out a house was quite capable.
The landlord waved his hand and waived his rent for the past few days. "You haven't been here for many days, and you haven't made a mess. It's okay, I won't charge you rent. Just work hard for our leader."
Gavin was a little embarrassed, but he was a hot-tempered beast who hated formalities. "I'm not going to argue with you humans. You're just a nuisance. You think you can just say you're done and then forget it? We beasts don't play games!"
Seeing that he said that, Gavin could only smile and thank him, but he felt an unprecedented sense of relief in his heart. The line between humans and beasts is not so clear. Look at everything he had experienced. Those people were worse than beasts.
The creature's prototype is a lion. He is generous and talkative, and even took Gavin to stroll around their food street. "Let me tell you, the food in our Nanling area is famous for its variety. We have all kinds of flavors. Originally, there were only eight major cuisines, but now, amazingly, there are twelve."
"Also, there's no rush to move out of your house. It usually takes three days. Just stay here with me for those three days."
"Oh, by the way, I heard that because of what happened before, the mental ability projection box sold in the base's store has been selling really well recently. It can be used as a surveillance camera and as a projector. Anyway, a lot of people have bought it to install in their homes."
"Whether you have a good job or not, you should work hard with our leader. I heard that they are planning to build a superpowered subway to your area. This is great for me. My neighborhood is so close to yours. It will be much more convenient for me to go to the hunting team in the future."
He rattled off a bunch of things, some of which Gavin understood and some he didn't. After all, Nanling was developing too fast, with new things coming out every few days. For example, they were temporarily allowed to use the superpower rings for a year, which were completely different from those in Xiyue.
It's no wonder so many people want to come to Nanling. The quality of life in Nanling is indeed better than theirs. At least the people and animals in Nanling clearly have high expectations for the future.
When the superpowered subway opened, Gavin and the others had already been working at the research institute for almost a month. The equipment and theories here were things they had never encountered before.
The thought of their leaders boarding the starships they designed, heading to the Zerg, participating in the Superpower Competition, and crushing the Zerg under their feet filled them with indescribable excitement.
They work 20 hours a day, 24 hours a day. If it weren't for the regulations, they would work without sleep, just to build the starship as soon as possible!
Some of the single people even felt that the houses allocated to them by Nanling were a bit redundant, since most of them basically slept directly in the laboratory and didn't need to go back.
They can! They can build the most powerful starships! What are the Zerg? What are the Serpents? What are those alien races? They'll all be trampled underfoot!
Regardless of age, they were all incredibly energetic. Seeing their starship group so engrossed, the other groups even suspected that Lu Yize had asked his wife to mentally control them.
