Tang Shishi recognized his cheesy joke and replied with a tired smile, "Yes, there are no strangers, only acquaintances."
"I'll make breakfast. You go take a shower and pack your luggage." Gu Ran turned and walked inside. "You can rest on the ship later."
"Okay." Tang Shishi obeyed the arrangement, went upstairs to take a shower, and then went to the back garden with Gu Ran to watch the sunrise and have breakfast.
Breakfast was spaghetti bolognese, and Gu Ran used top-quality steak to make the meat sauce, which was then mixed with tomato sauce.
I've heard that Italians smash their plates when they eat pasta with tomato sauce. I wonder if that's true. I'll try it on Caesar next time I go back to school.
Halfway through breakfast, two yachts and a cargo ship began to approach from a distance.
Gu Ran held a marking smoke grenade in his hand, pulled it open, and threw it towards the dock. Red smoke spread everywhere, guiding the three ships.
"Our people are here." Gu Ran wiped his mouth and went to the dock to meet them.
Chapter 316 The Disorderly Isolated Island
At the dock, the first person to disembark from the ship was a tall, beautiful woman with long, straight legs and flowing hair tied up high, ensuring her stunning and gorgeous face was not obscured by her hair.
"Oh, long-legged sister, how could I trouble you to come all this way?" Gu Ran greeted Jiu De Mai with a smile.
Mai Shude was wearing a white beach dress, her long, white legs shining brightly in the early morning. She yawned lazily and said, "I've come all this way to repay your favor."
This time, Gu Ran did not contact Norma for fear of interference from external forces. Instead, he sought out Jiu De Mai and Su Enxi and used their connections.
After this matter is over, then we can find Norma. That way, even external forces won't be able to stop us.
During the auction, Gu Ran concealed Mai's identity as a drunkard, and then at the Kassel College ice cellar, Gu Ran also helped to divert Jormungandr's attention from her.
Moreover, when they were in the capital, he even devised a plan to lead Mingfei out to slay the dragon. Both the potato chip girl and the long-legged girl felt that they owed him a favor.
"This trip cost a lot of money, and Chip Girl is really angry," Mai complained to Gu Ran.
"It can't be that serious. How could a woman who controls the entire world's financial market get angry over such a small amount of money? Besides, you received a hundred million US dollars from Seven Deadly Sins. After deducting the salvage fee of a few million, you still made a net profit of more than ninety-eight million US dollars!"
Gu Ran complained that the potato chip girl was stingy.
Mai said, "You've made quite a bit too. Chip Girl told me that you've made at least three hundred million dollars by taking advantage of the Gattuso family!"
"Not at all, it's just a little money, not even enough for you to get by in the capital market," Gu Ran said modestly, thinking to himself that the girl was incredibly perceptive, able to spot that he was a behind-the-scenes buyer.
Gu Ran and Jiu De Mai arrived at the villa and asked her if she had eaten. If not, they would make her another plate of spaghetti bolognese.
"Okay, hurry up and make it, I'm starving."
So Gu Ran made her one.
At this moment, Tang Shishi came down with her luggage bag.
Mai Shude made no attempt to introduce herself. She tossed a bunch of keys to Gu Ran and said, "The yacht's route has been set. You can reach Sumatra, Indonesia in as little as ten hours by boat. Someone will pick you up at the end of the route. As for how you get to Singapore afterwards, that's none of my business."
“There’s a flight from Padang, Sumatra to Singapore. I checked, it’s a direct flight and it only takes an hour.” Gu Ran took the keys and slung his small backpack over his shoulder. “Then I’ll leave the people on the island to you.”
“I will send them back to Singapore, it will probably take a few days.” After finishing her meat sauce noodles, Mai Shude took a sip of her banana milkshake and said, “I will not be responsible for what happens after that, I have no obligation to do so.”
"I know, I know. Sending them to a civilized place should be enough," Gu Ran said. "By the way, they had adrenaline in their backpacks..."
Before he could finish speaking, a series of chaotic footsteps and agonizing screams came from outside!
Gu Ran and Jiu Demai exchanged a glance and immediately rushed to the door to check the situation.
Two people covered in scales were chasing after more than ten people.
"It's Deadpool!" Mai Shude said to Gu Ran. "I came to help you pick someone up and take them home, but you've turned this into a biohazard and a zombie apocalypse. That's not fair!"
Gu Ran didn't banter with her. He immediately entered Lightning Release Chakra Mode, stimulating all the muscles in his body. At the same time, he held the Namazuo Short Sword in his hand and instantly accelerated and sprinted away.
His speed was as fast as lightning. Watching from behind, Jiu De Mai could only barely catch a glimpse of the afterimage of his attack before Gu Ran chopped off the heads of the two death servants who were only driven by a murderous intent.
Two Deadpools were beheaded. Gu Ran looked at the clothes on the Deadpools' bodies and saw that they were dressed in women's clothing.
He walked toward the fleeing people, who had just witnessed Gu Ran kill the Deadpool who was chasing them with a single strike, and remembering that they were still in the survival challenge hunting period, they assumed that Gu Ran was one of the hunters.
They were trembling, and several men raised their knives, seemingly ready to resist.
“We are Interpol agents from Singapore, here to combat criminals.” Gu Ran pulled a fake ID from his pocket and tossed it to the group.
Among those who fled, James Bond was present. He took Gu Ran's ID, glanced at it, and didn't know how to verify its authenticity.
Gu Ran continued, "The criminals were all wiped out by us last night. I don't know if you heard gunshots last night, but those were the sounds of our battle."
The island was spacious and quiet. Last night, when Tang Shishi executed someone with an AK, the gunshot was very loud, and they must have all heard it.
"Then... what about those criminals? The ones who tricked us into boarding the ship..." James Bond asked.
“Oh, they were already transported away last night in a batch.” Gu Ran pointed to the ships at the dock not far away. “These ships are here to take you back to the mainland. We were still discussing how to communicate with you when you arrived.”
James Bond glanced at Gu Ran, then suddenly saw Tang Shishi standing in the manor and immediately questioned, "Why is she still here? She's clearly one of the hunters too..."
Gu Ran's mind worked quickly, and she immediately said, "You've misunderstood. She's actually one of our undercover agents. She suffered a lot to infiltrate their ranks in order to save you!"
"Stop wasting your breath on him." Mai Shude stepped out at this moment. She was beautiful, had long legs, and exuded a powerful aura. She asked, "Quickly tell me what's going on with those two monsters!"
After exchanging a glance with the man who had fled with him, James Bond said something that left Gu Ran speechless.
It turns out that these ninety people went into the forest together yesterday and reached the westernmost part of the island after dark.
That was a small hill with dense forest for cover, a good place for defense. Gu Ran suggested they go to the far west because he wanted to buy time and take care of those seven people as quickly as possible.
As a result, Gu Ran's tactics were also very successful.
The problem is that almost all of these ninety-odd people are people who have been released from prison after serving their sentences. Among them, people like James Bond are considered to have committed minor crimes.
There were seven or eight people who were juvenile delinquents who were transferred to prison and served more than ten years before being released.
These people were incorrigible, thinking that whether they fought desperately or defended themselves, they would probably not escape death in the end, and they also thought that there was no law on this deserted island.
These seven or eight men ambushed the women. They had been in prison for so long and couldn't take it anymore. Now that they were in this lawless place, they wanted to have some fun as they pleased.
They selected three beautiful women with good figures, intending to lure them to a secluded place to commit their crimes.
Chapter 317 Rescue Operation
The women who were lured out quickly realized something was wrong, but they were not to be trifled with either. They had all been to prison, so how could they be easy to deal with?
Upon realizing the danger, they immediately resisted and fought with these people, preferring death to submission.
The sounds of fighting attracted a large force, and a soldier stepped forward, declaring that he would punish those scumbags.
However, his appeal did not gain the approval of most people. Many felt that it was enough to mind one's own business and not to concern oneself with so many other things. For example, James Bond did not want to meddle in other people's business.
A small minority intend to uphold justice and stand up alongside the soldiers, while an even smaller minority, influenced by the scum's ideology, are preparing to join the scum group and become part of the disorder.
So, this tiny group ambushed the soldier who had stood up and killed him as well.
From then on, no one cared about those who wanted to do evil.
The wicked act with impunity, pulling aside any girl they like, and no one dares to stop them.
Of course, the women wouldn't just sit idly by and wait to die. During the resistance, one woman was beaten half to death, and in the struggle, she used the adrenaline.
Then tragedy struck.
The syringe, purported to contain adrenaline, actually contained dragon blood serum developed by the Zhang family of Southeast Asia. This dragon blood serum quickly turned people into Deadpools, who began killing people everywhere.
There was also a slightly weaker woman who, seeing such results, also used that dose of adrenaline, determined to fight those wicked men to the very end.
“Those two monsters were impervious to swords and spears. They chased a group of us, killing anyone they caught. They were impossible to communicate with, just like… just like zombies!” James Bond said with lingering fear. “We can climb trees, and we only escaped by climbing up a tree.”
"Are there any living people left in the woods?" Gu Ran asked.
“I…I don’t know,” James Bond replied. “Someone behind us got injured and didn’t want to die, so it seems like they also took adrenaline.”
"So, there are quite a few Dead Servants in the forest now?" Mai Shude sneered. "You people were originally tricked into coming to the island because of your greed, and now you've caused this mess..."
Gu Ran had anticipated that the order among them would collapse, so he arranged for Jiu De Mai to come up and save the day, and prepared to pick them up at dawn.
But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly, in just one night, less than 24 hours.
"I'll go and take care of Deadpool." Gu Ran took the catfish tail dagger and walked into the woods.
“I’ll go with you,” Tang Shishi said.
Have you ever fought Deadpool?
“No…” Tang Shishi said, “People have turned into Deadpools before, but their abilities were quite ordinary. This year’s drug seems to be different…”
"Then you'll wait here, otherwise I won't be able to take care of you." Gu Ran glanced at Jiu De Mai and said, "I'm leaving this place to you."
Mai nodded. She didn't care about the lives of these people, but she agreed that the Dead Servants couldn't be spared.
She stayed here to protect these people, and also to deal with the sudden appearance of Deadpool.
After entering the forest, Gu Ran created nine shadow clones, which lined up in a row to search the entire island.
As we ventured deeper into the woods, we soon detected a very strong stench of blood permeating the forest.
The further west you go, the more bodies you find on the ground.
Gu Ran felt a little anxious. The matter was urgent, but he didn't expect to have to deal with the aftermath. He also felt that he had killed those people too easily last night, but he was not good at torturing people, so he simply killed them with one blow.
Upon reaching the westernmost side of the island, Gu Ran saw nearly twenty Death Servants.
There are no living people left.
Some Deadpools even have syringes inserted into their hearts. If I'm not mistaken, these people knew they couldn't beat Deadpool, so they decided to become Deadpool themselves.
As the saying goes, if you can't beat them, join them.
It's strange that after these Deadpools kill someone, they just stop moving. The Deadpools don't even fight each other, just like the zombies in The Walking Dead.
Logically speaking, these Deadpools have no controllers and should only kill without anyone intervening.
The Dead Servants seemed to have spotted Gu Ran, and immediately howled as they charged toward them.
It really looks like a zombie.
Gu Ran's main body, wielding the catfish tail dagger, began frantically slashing off Deadpool's head, while his shadow clones used their newly learned S-rank ninjutsu, Purple Lightning, to cut off Deadpool's skull.
In less than ten minutes, the battle was over.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Gu Ran began to feel irritable again, because he would definitely have to deal with these remains and collect the dragon blood serum. If even a few drops were left out, causing the animals to mutate, it would cause even more disasters.
But Gu Ran is in a hurry; he needs to save Tang Shishi's mother.
