Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Ping Deyuan suddenly had a bad premonition, but given the current situation, he could only grit his teeth and swallow his discomfort. Despite feeling uneasy, he had to endure it!

With an awkward smile, Ping Deyuan furrowed his brow and asked, "Captain Xiao, what can I help you with? Feel free to speak. If I can be of assistance, I'll do my best!"

Alex smiled faintly, lowered his voice, and spoke with a sincere expression, "Since Captain Xiao entered the base shelter and saw your daughter, Miss Qi Yun, Captain Xiao has been deeply infatuated with her. Day and night, he has been longing for Miss Qi Yun.

If Captain Xiao can have the privilege of being close to your daughter, he is willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"

Ping Deyuan widened his eyes, staring at Alex in shock and replied firmly, "This is not possible! My daughter is already engaged to Deputy Commander Zhang, and their wedding is imminent! If I change my mind now and arrange my daughter's engagement to Captain Xiao, wouldn't that offend Deputy Commander Zhang? This cannot happen!"

Alex, showing no signs of being bothered by the resolute refusal, simply smiled. In a coaxing manner, he said, "President Ping, perhaps you've misunderstood. I have no intention of marrying your daughter. I just want to spend a night with her, to have a heartfelt conversation about our feelings. This matter will be known only to us. How could Deputy Commander Zhang find out?

By doing so, you not only have Deputy Commander Zhang as a son-in-law, but also me, Alex. Killing two birds with one stone. You will then control both squads! With control over both squads, do you still need to worry about anyone, including Deputy Commander Zhang? What about Guang Beijia and Lu Weijiang? They will obediently become your lackeys."

Alex's words, like the temptation of a devil, continued to linger in Ping Deyuan's ears, making it difficult for him to dispel the thoughts.

"Heaven knows, earth knows... you know, I know... How could Zhang Jingwu possibly know?"

"Control over the forces of both squads will be entirely in your hands."

"At that time, do you still need to care about anyone's opinions?"

"Lu Weijiang... Guang Beijia... lackeys..."

The more Ping Deyuan thought about it, the more fascinated he became, unable to extricate himself. The allure of power made him increasingly unable to resist. Whether before or after the apocalypse, he had always been subordinate to Lu Weijiang, acting like a dog, carrying Lu Weijiang's burdens.

With his capabilities, he could have gained more power without being under Lu Weijiang's command. In the past, it was because of Lu Weijiang's powerful background, but what about now? It was the apocalypse! Strength was everything!

He, Ping Deyuan, could also become a person of high status! He could step on Lu Weijiang!

Finally, when Ping Deyuan returned home, he gently knocked on his daughter's door.

Meanwhile, Alex received a visit from Shen Xudong. Shen Xudong looked at his daughter, who was looking at the young man in front of her with admiration, and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that it was you, Alex, who saved my daughter's life back then. Well, now that you two have privately decided to be together, as a father, I have nothing more to say."

"I wish you both well... But for the peace of the base, for the sake of saving more survivors, I hope you can seriously consider standing on the side of Guang Beijia."

"Lv Weijiang and his group are selfish. If they gain control of the entire base shelter, it's not just us who will be doomed. This entire shelter, which we painstakingly established, will also be destroyed!" After listening to the love story concocted by Alex and Shen Han, Shen Xudong reluctantly agreed to the relationship between Alex and Shen Han.

He had figured out the reasons behind Shen Han and the First Squad betraying and siding with Alex. Alex saved Shen Han and the members of the First Squad, gaining Shen Han's favor in return. If the First Squad sided with Alex, it was understandable. Moreover, the First Squad had long been discontent with Guang Beijia, and without Shen Han's restraint, they might have rebelled earlier.

However, all of that was now irrelevant. His main goal now was to try his best to gain the support of Alex and the Materials Collection Squad.

"Uncle! Why do we have to rely on others? Why do we have to be dogs for others, do their bidding? We have our own ideals! We have our own thoughts! We might even do better on our own!" Alex suddenly stood up, his expression sincere and respectful.

"In my view, whether in the hands of Guang Beijia or Lu Weijiang, this shelter is heading towards destruction!"

"Guang Beijia is too soft-hearted, not fit for handling significant matters. Otherwise, this good hand wouldn't have been played into its current state."

"And Lu Weijiang is too selfish, not someone fit for managing significant matters either! If the base shelter falls into his hands, the people here will not have good days ahead."

"So, I think neither of these two is suitable to lead us! The person who can truly lead us to survive well and continue to develop and strengthen our shelter is only one person and is the most suitable!"

Alex paused, casting a meaningful glance at Shen Xudong, who looked surprised when he suddenly looked up. Alex then continued, "Only you! Only you can become an outstanding leader, leading us to a better life!"

Boom! Shen Xudong felt as if his head had suddenly exploded, leaving him in a blank state.

"Guang Beijia and Lu Weijiang are not suitable to be leaders... Only I am the most suitable?" Shen Xudong questioned in astonishment.

"Can I really do it?"

"Yes! Why do I have to work for others? Why do I have to be someone else's dog?" Shen Xudong continued, growing more determined.

"Before the apocalypse, I also proved my abilities! I was a leader of a large department! Why can they compete for leadership, but I can't?" Shen Xudong asserted.

"I contributed a lot to the establishment and development of this shelter! All these fields outside are planned by me, Shen Xudong! Yes! My abilities are not inferior to anyone!"

"I have long bought Guang Beijia's indecisive soft-heartedness!"

"If this continues, the excellent situation will all fall into their hands!"

"No! For the sake of the shelter, for everyone, I must step forward!!!"

"Before, I didn't have enough power in my hands and dared not think about these things. But now, my daughter and son-in-law control one-third of the power in the shelter! I want to contend for this position, and it may not be impossible!!"

Shen Xudong's lifeless eyes suddenly burst with a bright light. He looked up at Alex, who was looking at him with enthusiasm. Suddenly, Shen Xudong stood up, grabbing Alex's hand.

"Good! Alex! Han! Dad will follow your lead! This time, for you, for everyone in the shelter, I will bravely step forward!"

"Don't worry, I will do my best to handle those things you mentioned this time for you!!"

After speaking, Shen Xudong turned around abruptly, walking out with his head held high, like a warrior who had suddenly gained sacred faith, full of solemnity and bravery.

Alex watched Shen Xudong's figure, and a slight curve formed at the corner of his mouth. On the side, Shen Han coldly laughed and said, "Master is wise! Shen Xudong has taken the bait!"
