With that, Guang Beijia lifted the tea cup and carefully offered it to Alex's lips. Meanwhile, Jing Mi obediently stood by, gently massaging Alex.
"Yes, this is the former leading lady of Jiangcheng City, Guang Beijia. However, she is now just an ordinary maid in my service," Alex said with a faint smile, looking at Liu Feifei. It seemed as if he was saying, "You, a minor celebrity, are nothing in front of me. Stop pretending to be so lofty."
Upon seeing Jing Mi and Guang Beijia, Ke Wenhua's thoughts were entirely different from Liu Feifei's. His expression grew increasingly solemn.
Titles like "leading lady" and "big star" held no curiosity for him. In this apocalypse, strength was the true ruler. Former titles and influence were meaningless. In the current state of the apocalypse, anything could happen.
Ke Wenhua's shock didn't stem from the women's identities but from Alex's ability to make them serve him like dogs. What kind of power did this man possess? He not only attracted a major star like Jing Mi but also subdued someone as prominent as Guang Beijia. Moreover, he had them serve him so subserviently. From this alone, Ke Wenhua could conclude that the man before him had terrifying strength.
"Captain Ke, I heard from my subordinates that you want to form an alliance with us and establish a new shelter next to ours?" After finishing his tea, Alex, with an air of comfort, allowed the two maids to knead and massage his back as he casually inquired.
Liu Feifei felt extremely uncomfortable with Alex's impoliteness. In her view, a man should possess gentlemanly manners, especially when dealing with guests. However, Alex displayed such arrogance.
Seeing Liu Feifei's displeasure, Ke Wenhua quickly shot her a warning look, afraid that she might say something inappropriate. He then smiled and responded, "Yes, Alex, we are all members of the City Defense Unit. Although you are from Jiangcheng City, and we are from Modu, we are still considered one big family, right? We've just arrived in this precious land and need some time to settle down.
Establishing a shelter next to yours would allow us to support each other, don't you think?"
"And... our food, water, and fuel supplies are running dangerously low. We hope... hope that you can temporarily aid us. But rest assured, we will surely repay you twofold in the future!"
"Captain Ke, let's go. I'll accompany you to see the true strength of your team. If the strengths are evenly matched, forming an alliance would be necessary. Otherwise, if a fight breaks out later, resulting in mutual damage, it wouldn't be good, right?" Alex smiled amiably as he looked towards Ke Wenhua.
At this moment, Ke Wenhua's face had turned ashen.
Is this still fucking around with a look?
He couldn't believe that there was such formidable strength within this refuge! Even in the past, with his squad at full strength, they probably wouldn't be a match for these people.
"Well... Alex... to be honest with you, we just went through a major battle a few days ago. Our ammunition and food supplies are running low, and additionally, our food and fuel are about to run out. We urgently need time to rest and replenish! Alex, please, considering that we are all survivors from the city defense forces, help us out...
If you find us unwelcome, we can leave immediately," Ke Wenhua gritted his teeth, speaking with sincerity. "If Alex truly doesn't welcome us, we can leave immediately."
Alex glanced at Ke Wenhua and Liu Feifei, then suddenly smiled and said, "Captain Ke, you're underestimating me too much! Am I, Alex, that kind of person? We are all survivors, and I naturally want to help you! How about this, temporarily hand over your heavy weapons to me for safekeeping. As for the supply of food, bullets, and fuel in the next few days, leave it to me. What do you think?"
Ke Wenhua's face darkened. Faced with Alex's proposal, he felt embarrassed. If they handed over all their heavy weapons, they would be completely at Alex's mercy. Without the protection of heavy weapons, they would be at the mercy of Alex.
However, if they didn't hand them over, Alex would definitely not provide any help. Without food, ammunition, and fuel, they would still be in dire straits. If Alex decided to be ruthless and launch a sudden attack, they might face the danger of complete annihilation at this very moment.
Alex's proposal was clearly forcing them to completely submit to him, becoming dependent under his command, and possibly even becoming slaves like Imai.
