I'm bad, but players love me

In her view, the comfortable life of ordinary people means her loss and hardship, which is intolerable.

For any ruler, what they desire is only absolute rule and the awe and obedience of the common people, rather than a carefree life.

"Let's go." Ella took a step back first.

Before leaving, she turned around and looked at Yun Shuo deeply. Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

When did ELO go from being an annoying fly to being on par with nobles like them?

Ella never understood what ELO was built on.

She never asked. If she had asked, she would have found that Yun Shuo had already told her the answer, and he had said it over and over again - relying on hatred for them, the nobles, and the desire to survive.

……

Setaishi tried his best to smile, trying to hide his overwhelmed pride. "I never thought you would come to rescue me. You are really well-informed, Commander-in-Chief."

"After all, we are your private army, Saitaishi." Yun Shuo replied with a smile, "See, this is what they call 'the rich have their reasons'."

Saitaishi was stunned by this, and it took him a long time to react. It turned out that Yun Shuo was refuting his previous remarks mocking their ELO - "A group of old, weak, sick and disabled people, how could they be sold at such a high price?"

No, this happened several days ago. You ELO people really hold grudges, Setash couldn't help but mutter to himself.

He even began to wonder if Yun Shuo was secretly recording every word he said. Perhaps every night, when everyone was asleep, Yun Shuo would hide under the covers, silently jotting down his hatred in a small notebook, ready to throw these "boomerangs" back at Setash.

The originally tense atmosphere was largely dissipated by Yun Shuo's jokes.

Setaishi turned away somewhat embarrassedly, lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Thank...thank you for coming to save me."

It seemed as if he had exhausted all his strength to say this sentence, and each word was extremely difficult to say. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had expressed his gratitude so sincerely.

So after he finished speaking, Setash immediately felt embarrassed and shy, and began to move his fingers busily, trying to hide his inner uneasiness.

However, in response to Saitai's sincere thanks, Yun Shuo just said "hmm" faintly.

He still had that familiar smile on his face, but it was so cold that he dismissed the thanks that Setash had finally expressed.

Saitaishi was stunned for a moment, feeling mixed emotions.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should be glad that Yun Shuo didn't take advantage of this to get ahead of himself, or whether he should hate Yun Shuo for being so arrogant and trampling on his gratitude.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to change the subject, asking, "Isn't it possible that I failed to inform you? How did you know?"

"Oh, that's right. I've planted some undercover agents in your manor. As the saying goes, 'It's impolite not to reciprocate.' Since you've given me some undercover agents, I'll naturally give you some in return!" Yun Shuo said with a faint smile. His tone was nonchalant, but his eyes were filled with cunning and complacency.

This is of course a lie. With the system in place, undercover work is unnecessary.

There is no doubt that this is another boomerang for Setais.

Setash gritted his teeth and continued, "Why don't you just come with my army?"

"Hiss..." Yun Shuo gasped and looked at Saitaishi with disbelief, as if he were looking at an innocent child. "Saitaishi, you still don't understand what's going on? And you're still saying my ELO is leaking? Your manor has been hacked like a sieve, and you still think you're impregnable?"

Then, Yun Shuo mercilessly revealed, "In fact, you didn't even contact your own troops. Instead, you contacted Fati's troops. I guess all of this is under her control. It was her setup from beginning to end."

"The whole plan is to twist and turn again. First, they force you to contact the army, then make you think the army has arrived and you have someone to support you, and then you talk nonsense there, and then you find out that the army has indeed come, but this person is from Fati's family."

"Of course, in the end, we ELO added another layer of reversal to it. You thought it was yours, Fati thought it was hers, but only I knew that this person was my ELO."

"Don't worry, I will never let her have an easy time!" Saitai said gritting his teeth, with anger and hatred flashing in his eyes.

However, despite his heart filled with resentment, his brow remained tightly furrowed. At this moment, he was struggling with an unresolved problem: why did Fati, who had always maintained a neutral position, suddenly switch sides with the city lord?

Anyway, they still had to wait for Setash's own troops to come and take over the task of protecting him, so Yun Shuo simply used the intelligence brought by the system to analyze the situation for Setash, so that he wouldn't be unable to defeat Ella, and he could come to rescue him later whenever he wanted.

"Profits are always the best and only motivation for you guys. She'll change, but it's because you've gone too far." Yun Shuo said calmly, "You have no ability, yet you're still pressing her."

"Although this statement may make Ella and you seem a bit foolish, it is an indisputable fact: before Fati changed factions, the vast majority of nobles had already chosen to follow you. This included even some nobles who had originally maintained a neutral attitude. Their joining undoubtedly further expanded your influence."

"But, that's the problem. Everyone followed you, Setash, and Ella has no one around. More importantly, you only saw the attention brought by fame, but ignored the most crucial factor: manpower."

"You have people in the Kori Army, but can your men compare to Ella's? No. Struggles for power and profit can't be won with words. Once the bullets are fired, everyone will be quiet. You don't have any soldiers or guns under your command. Do you really expect us ELO to be cannon fodder and die for you?"

Seeing that Yun Shuo was still willing to help him analyze the current situation, Saitaishi couldn't help but feel relieved and secretly glad that their alliance had not yet broken.

He was even in the mood to joke: "Didn't you say ELO is my personal army?"

"Guess whether Fati believes it or not."

Yun Shuo glanced at Setaishi and continued, "She sided with Ella because she saw that there was no one around her, but that she had a high chance of keeping her position as city lord."

Setaishi nodded thoughtfully, then turned and asked, "What about those troops belonging to Fati? Did you kill them all?"

Yun Shuo frowned slightly, "This is our ELO business."

The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, and the scene fell into dead silence.

"You really are on high alert against me, Yun Shuo." Saitaishi turned around, a sly and unwilling look in his eyes. He sneered and said, "We are clearly allies, but you never trust me."

Once again, Setash tried to put himself in the position of the victim. He knew that this would win the sympathy and pity of others, and this method was always effective - he had tasted too much sweetness in this position.

But Yun Shuo will not give him this opportunity.

He brought the private topic of "you and me" back to the public, "We are allies. We prosper together and suffer together. No one can be immune."

Not long after, when Setash's troops hurried over, all they saw was Setash's gloomy face and the notice that he had broken off relations with the city lord.

At the same time, Yun Shuo was leading his team to evacuate the noble area in an orderly manner and head towards the civilian area.

Halfway through the walk, an elderly lady stumbled out of the house in front of them, stumbling and walking towards them immediately after noticing them.

Before Yun Shuo could ask, the old lady took out a sharp blade from her bosom without hesitation, and slashed at Yun Shuo who was walking at the front of the team with a clear target.

Chapter 89: Request for a Suicide Bombing

How could this bastard tolerate this? Killing his own commander right in front of him, did he really think ELO had no one left? His hair stood on end in fury, and he swiftly stepped forward to snatch the knife from the man's hand. Then, he demanded, "Who are you? Why are you doing this?"

However, the old woman did not answer, but stared at the dog with eyes filled with endless hatred and resentment, as if she wanted to eat the dog alive.

The hatred that penetrated her bones distorted her entire face.

Her white hair was disheveled and her face looked extremely haggard. Even more shocking was that the right half of her scalp was covered in blood, as if something had rubbed a huge cut in it, and most of the wound had not yet stopped bleeding and formed a scab.

The left side of his face was covered with large, hideous scars, leaving his cheek deeply sunken, and under his nostrils were black marks from artillery fire.

The hands that were tightly grasped by the dog were even more horrible to look at. The nails on all ten fingers had peeled off, leaving only ten bare fingertips covered in blood and dirt.

There is no doubt that these are a pair of tortured hands.

Judging from her clothing, this old woman once undoubtedly lived a comfortable and prosperous life. However, the ravages of war have reduced her to this state.

His originally elegant and refined clothes were now worn out, his body became hunched, and his eyes were filled with fatigue.

"Oh my god, ELO is so hated? He just went out and hacked people with a fruit knife?"

After taking in the NPC's 3D model, Gouzi was also surprised. He quickly took off his headphones and planned to listen carefully. "Is my graphics card okay? Do I deserve this level of precision? It's so detailed, so incredibly detailed. I never thought that Di Ugly would one day make games with such care."

What? Di Chou has a conscience?

[It's normal. It's been at the top of the bestseller list for a long time. If I don't spend some money to improve it, I'm afraid everyone will curse me.]

[Honestly, this modeling is so amazing that it makes me feel a little physically ill.]

[You hate Yun Shuo so much, could it be that your ELO made him like this? ]

[Get lost! The noble dog is barking again? Your own bones aren't enough for you to chew on, right?]

[Dachun, you are different from them. Don't waste your time on something as complicated as using your brain.]

Please, this ELO isn't just any ELO; it's ELO disguised as the Cori Army. Ordinary people can't tell the real thing from the fake. They're clearly here to kill the Cori Army.

[I don't believe Dichou used his brains to create the plot. He must be here to kill Yun Shuo. He's done so many things that angered everyone, and he's still trying to wash it off.]

In fact, the dog didn't use much strength to catch her, just the level of grabbing a person's wrist.

But the old woman had already started to tremble in panic. She had been afraid for too long and didn't even know how to face such normal physical contact.

Her legs twitched uncontrollably.

It was at this moment that Gou Zi noticed that she had a limp in one leg - it was obviously a recent injury. The gauze that should have been white and clean had long been soaked with blood. Large amounts of blood that seeped out turned from the bright red to black again and again, and finally condensed on the surface bit by bit into lumps that would fall off.

The old woman's voice was very weak, as if she had used all her strength to squeeze these words out from between her teeth. They were barely audible, almost a whisper.

Her eyes were bloodshot, revealing despair and sorrow, but her body was shaking constantly. Coupled with her face, which was as pale as paper, bloodless, and faintly bluish-gray, she looked like a dying zombie.

She only heard her say with a weak breath: "Kill me..."

[What? I didn't hear that clearly.] The subtitles were just a bunch of ellipsis marks, so I had to rely on my ears to understand. Since Gouzi hadn't prepared, he naturally didn't hear what she said clearly.

"I said... kill me!" The old woman seemed to have suffered a sudden great stimulation. Her emotions became extremely excited. Tears flowed from the corners of her eyes like a flood that broke through the dam, slid down her cheeks, and washed out white tear marks on her dusty face.

She screamed at the top of her lungs, "Kill me! Aren't you the best at this kind of thing?"

The tendons on the old woman's neck stretched out in a line. "I'm an ELO member! I admit I'm an ELO member! Come and kill me!"

This sudden change made the dog confused for a moment.

I know, I know. Why are you yelling so loudly? It's ELO, it's ELO. Everyone is ELO. Why are you suddenly rushing in and shouting about fighting and killing?

Yun Shuo stepped forward and explained calmly, "We are ELO."

He stepped forward and motioned for Gouzi to release his hand, then took out a piece of black bread from his pocket and handed it to him, "What happened?"

The Cory Army had been pursuing ELO members relentlessly for a long time. Yun Shuo knew that he was still wearing the Cory Army's clothes.

This old woman was stabbing with a fruit knife and she shouted out on the spot that she was from ELO. It was obvious that she was seeking death.

Moreover, Yun Shuo knew that the other person definitely couldn't be a member of ELO. It wasn't that Yun Shuo was so dedicated as a commander, because even if he was dedicated, it would be impossible for so many people to remember them all. It was mainly because an old man like her, who was in his sixties or seventies, would definitely be in a white wall.

There's no other way. He's at this age, he doesn't have many teeth left, and he trembles a little when he walks. And you still want him to go to the battlefield. Isn't this pure beastly behavior?

According to Yun Shuo's experience, there was no wronged person whose mouth couldn't be pried open by a piece of bread and a smile. If there was, they would definitely have some noble blood and would have no shortage of food.

At this moment, the old woman took a deep breath, held back her tears and said nothing.

But her hungry stomach made her take the bread honestly. She couldn't wait to put it into her mouth, chewing it voraciously, and even picked up the crumbs that fell on the ground and stuffed them into her full mouth.

Although Yun Shuo was not in a hurry to return to ELO's jurisdiction - after all, at this moment, Ella had no time to order a charge, and the enemy and our side were currently in a temporary truce - but it was obviously inappropriate to stay here.

So he asked, "Will you come with us? Although life is not easy for us in ELO, as long as we are willing to work, we can have enough food."

The old woman didn't say anything, just stared at Yun Shuo, as if she was carefully examining something, or as if she had simply lost the ability to think because of the extreme fear that had repeated many times before.

Seeing that the old woman didn't say anything, Yun Shuo didn't force her. He handed the remaining bread in his arms to the old woman and said, "It's okay if you don't want to leave. This bread can at least last a few days."

Now is a time of turmoil, and real food is much more precious than money.

However, the old woman did not reach out to take the bread, but just stood there motionless, chewing continuously in her mouth.

Seeing this, Yun Shuo shook his head helplessly, thinking that this old lady was really stubborn. He simply went ahead and stuffed the bread into the old woman's clothes.

Anyway, it is wrapped in two layers of bags, so there is no need to worry about it getting dirty.

But just as Yun Shuo was about to take his men away, the old woman suddenly spoke, "Now, I really believe you are ELO."

The disheveled old woman in front of him was none other than Hina, who had escaped earlier.

Xina quickly wiped the tears from her face. She still remembered what Dim told her, "Go find ELO, only ELO can save you."

But... it's too late.

She clutched her clothes tightly and said in a hoarse voice, "I don't want this. I want a bomb. The more powerful the better, preferably the kind that can be tied to the body."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yun Shuo immediately realized Xina's intention - she was going to become a suicide bomber.

This extreme appeal echoed in Yun Shuo's ears, like a thunderclap exploding in the silent night, shocking and heart-pounding.

He rejected her request without hesitation, his voice firm and tinged with worry. "No way! It's too dangerous! That's a bomb. There's no way you could survive that kind of explosion. If you want to fight the Kori Army, we'll do it, especially since you're already that old. I don't know what you've been through, but if you're willing, then come with us and we'll take care of you in your old age."

However, the old woman ignored his suggestion. Her face was pale, but there was a determination glint in her eyes.

She shook her head desperately, her hands clenched into fists, as if trying to squeeze out all the anger and despair in her heart. The hatred that burned through her teeth burned her, "No, no, there is no meaning for me to live anymore."

"The reason I'm still breathing is because I want revenge!" Her voice gradually rose, and every word was filled with uncontrollable excitement and anger.

Shivering, Xina pulled out a small, blood-stained shoe from her bosom. "They looted my house. My son-in-law was shot multiple times, leaving holes all over his body. They also shot my granddaughter to death. My grandson died in my arms not long ago... not long ago."

"He was a very good child. He didn't cry even when he was dying. He kept smiling and told me not to be afraid. Those damn Cori soldiers! Those damn Cori soldiers!" She repeated over and over again.

By this point, the entire civilian area was in chaos. Without electricity or water, people couldn't even get their most basic need: food.

The poor child was thrown to the ground by Shalltear, and everyone thought he was fine, including himself.

Before the shadow of death approached silently like a crow in the dark night and gradually wrapped around his fragile neck, his heart was still filled with endless worries.

He also wanted to find his mother and take good care of his elderly grandmother.
