The Guide to the End of the World: Four Sentinels Compete for Favor

Ai Wanxin and Jing returned to the surface. Before walking out of the elevator car, Jing quietly disappeared.

Outside the black metal door of the study, the curly-haired man, Tim, was pacing back and forth anxiously, rubbing his hands.

He kept muttering words like "I'm sorry", "Please forgive me", "I will be the most pious and loyal servant" and nervously wiping the sweat from his forehead again and again. Suddenly, the door suddenly opened to both sides.

Tim was stunned at first, but when his eyes met Ai Wanxin's icy eyes behind the door, he turned his head away suddenly as if he was burned by fire and knelt down with a thud.

This startled Ai Wanxin. She opened her eyes slightly and watched Tim crawl to her feet on his knees. He looked up with admiration and said very quickly: "My Lord, when I first saw you, I felt the divine light on you. I am willing to submit to you for the rest of my life and be your most loyal servant. I beg you to shine your merciful light on me and forgive my unintentional offense at the beginning. At any time, I am willing to use my life to prove my piety."

Tim was talking endlessly about his loyalty, and Ai Wan's mind was drifting away. She remembered someone had said before that if people from Tim's country lived outside their country, they would not only work very hard, but also provide emotional value after work. For example, they would accompany their bosses on night runs for years, and they were used to praising their bosses with very exaggerated words, and they were completely sincere. Ordinary people could not beat them at all. It seemed that what they said was quite right...

She quickly came to her senses and interrupted Tim's fancy confession.

"Where's Ricardo?" Ai Wanxin asked.

"My Lord." Tim said respectfully, "Ricardo sent me to ask you for instructions. We have found the settlement of the Yan people, but their sentinels are very tight and our people cannot get close. Moreover, they seem to be very wary of us. Ricardo knows that they are all your compatriots, so he dare not make a decision on his own. He wants you to go over and take a look."

Ai Wan thought for a moment and realized that they must be the garrison of Eagle City. Even though they were here, they did not forget their duty to protect the residents. She immediately said, "Let's go and take a look."

------------------

"Captain Yan, those gangsters from the Black Moon Peninsula have been lingering nearby, and more and more of them are gathering. What should we do? Should we drive them away?"

In the attic of the small white building, the young guard approached a tall, dark-skinned man with a lean build in front of the window and reported in a low voice.

Yan Huan looked at the calm blue sea in the distance, his brows furrowed, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a thick layer of ice.

"They have been active near Poseidon Port. Why did they suddenly target us?" He said in a deep voice with a bad look on his face.

There are three ports in Atlantis, located in the north, southwest and southeast of the outer island.

The area near Poseidon Port to the north was firmly controlled by the gangs of the Black Moon Peninsula. To the southwest, people lived together in a mixed crowd and the order was chaotic. After Yan Huan was ordered to take the people from Eagle City to the island, he spent a lot of effort before settling down in Tianhou Port in the southeast.

They are from the regular army and have advanced weapons. The gangs in the Black Moon Peninsula have always kept their distance from them, so why did they inexplicably surround them today?

Could it be...

Yan Huan frowned at Jian Huaixi who was sitting on a chair nearby.

"Are they coming for you?"

Jian Huaixi frowned. "I've only been here for a short while, why are you coming for me? Lieutenant Colonel, you are too skilled at shifting the blame."

The young guard barely resisted the urge to roll his eyes. He curled his lips and said, "They surrounded us the moment you arrived. And you came from Poseidon Port. Who knows if you have offended them before and therefore fled to us? Any normal person would be suspicious. Why are you trying to pass the buck?"

Unexpectedly, the young guard was so protective. Jian Huaixi brushed off the folds of his trousers on his thighs, sighed softly, stood up and said, "Okay, just think of it as me who led them here. Then I'll send them away. You won't have any complaints, right?"

After saying that, without waiting for Yan Huan to answer, he took two steps, supported himself on the window frame with one hand, brushed against the corner of Yan Huan's clothes, and jumped out of the window.

Veins on Yan Huan's forehead were throbbing. He frowned fiercely, cursed inwardly as "you conspicuous bastard", and jumped down the stairs.

After the people of Yingcheng occupied this area, Yan Huan ordered people to build a tall and solid wall around it, leaving only two narrow entrances and exits in the front and back. He also sent guards to guard it 24 hours a day, doing his utmost to protect the safety of the people of Yingcheng.

It has to be said that the love of building walls and infrastructure seems to be engraved in the genes of the Yan people.

At this time, Jian Huaixi strode towards the exit in front. The gangsters of Black Moon Peninsula gathered in the alley at the exit.

"Hey—" Jian Huaixi pushed aside the Eagle City guards who were waiting in formation and shouted at the foreigners who were full of evil spirits in the alley, "Call your boss out. I have something to say to him."

The people on the other side neither moved nor spoke, and were as silent as solid statues.

Jian Huaixi rolled up his sleeves, revealing his slender arms. He raised his voice and said, "We Yan people believe in using courtesy before force. In other words, if your boss doesn't come out, I will beat you to a pulp."

In the shadows, a man with a pale face and gloomy expression walked out slowly.

Ricardo had changed out of his loose cloth smock and gray cloth trousers and put on a neat shirt and trousers. His hair was neatly combed behind his head. His tall stature, broad shoulders and sullen face made Ricardo look completely dignified and imposing than he was half a day ago.

Behind him, there was a group of burly men with muscular bodies and unfriendly faces.

In addition to the confidants he had previously recruited privately, there were also many people who immediately expressed their willingness to join him after seeing him appear nimbly with Anderson's head in his hand.

After all, most of them gathered around Anderson just for the sake of profit. Now that Anderson is dead, do they still have to remain loyal to him?

Besides, Ricardo seemed to have really encountered a miracle, and no one would want to go against God.

Jian Huaixi looked him up and down.

"Are you their boss?"

Ricardo slowly shook his head: "No, I am not the boss, our master is the most merciful Lord."

Jian Huaixi originally wanted to say let’s have a one-on-one duel, but Ricardo’s weird words made him lose control all of a sudden.

He turned his head to look at Yan Huan who had caught up with him, and said in confusion: "Gangsters also believe in religion?"

A familiar clear voice came from the end of the alley.

"They don't believe in religion, they believe in me."
