238: I am what you young lady calls a devil.

As soon as the guards inside the Shelter showed their faces, they were eliminated; Tian Ming simply wouldn't give them any chance to resist.

Such cold-bloodedness almost made Lisa despair.

"Take me to the Shelter's control room; I want to make an announcement," Tian Ming said expressionlessly to Lisa beside him.

"What do you want to do?" Lisa asked, somewhat terrified.

"Didn't you say you didn't want me to kill anymore? Go to the control room and make an announcement, telling them not to appear before me with weapons. I won't kill anyone who isn't a threat."

"Alright, I'll take you there now," Lisa didn't dare to hesitate and quickly led Tian Ming to the control room.

Tian Ming and Lisa arrived at the control room, where more than a dozen technicians were on duty. Seeing Tian Ming and Lisa enter, a duty officer walked over.

"This is a critical area of the Shelter; please leave immediately."

Before he could finish speaking, his entire body was enveloped by a cloud of gas thousands of degrees hot, and he was instantly cremated on the spot.

"You... you..."

Lisa looked at the bloody Tian Ming; she didn't know what to say.

Tian Ming stopped, turned to look at Lisa, his eyes cold.

"Have those technicians adjust the equipment and prepare for translation; I want to say a few words. After all, if they can't see Shen Yuan, they only have 10 days left to live."

Lisa didn't dare to be slow in the slightest, stepping forward to have the Shelter's technicians debug the equipment.

The technicians nodded and quickly began to operate. Soon, Lisa's voice came over the broadcast: "Members of the family, I am Lisa. Please put down your weapons and do not resist. The person we are facing is a devil; he will show no mercy."

Tian Ming walked to the microphone and said, "Give me the microphone."

Lisa hesitated for a moment but still handed the microphone to Tian Ming. She stepped back, watching Tian Ming take the microphone, her heart uneasy.

Tian Ming took the microphone and began to speak: "I am the devil your Miss Lisa spoke of. I believe you have heard what Miss Lisa said; do not attempt to resist. Now, if you think you can escape, then escape. If you can escape from my hands, consider yourselves lucky."

His voice spread throughout the entire Shelter via the broadcast, his cold and clear words audible in every corner.

Tian Ming closed his eyes, absorbing the Red Crystal Core of that infant Corpse King; he was now a human radar. The entire situation of the Shelter was in his mind.

Although the detection range of five or six kilometers wasn't vast, it was more than enough to cover the entire Shelter.

After Tian Ming finished speaking, he handed the microphone back to the technicians. After hearing the broadcast, many people began to consider escaping by aircraft. Tian Ming's figure instantly blurred and disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, Tian Ming appeared below the aircraft that was taking off, and a Nitrogen Bomb was thrown out.

The ascending aircraft exploded into a fireball in mid-air. Ten seconds later.

Tian Ming's figure reappeared in the control room. His brief departure made Lisa very uncomfortable; she squatted on the ground, covering her head. Even though she hated him, being away from him, the mental torment continuously eroded Lisa's hatred for Tian Ming.

In the broadcast, Tian Ming's voice sounded again: "I repeat, do not attempt to escape or resist. Your every move is within my grasp. If you want to live, obey my arrangements."

The entire Shelter fell into a deathly silence; everyone looked at their companions in horror, at a loss.

They began to realize that this person named Tian Ming was not a threat; he was Satan, he was the devil.

The roar of the explosion made everyone in the Shelter realize that Tian Ming was not threatening them, but commanding them.

If you can't win, surrender. The abilities Tian Ming displayed made the Shelter's guards give up resistance. Everyone was like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, quietly awaiting the judgment of fate.

Tian Ming said to Lisa, "Gather all the people in your family who have a say. Since your father is not in the family Shelter, I want to see if he cares about the lives of your family members."

Through the broadcast, Lisa gathered all the important members of the Lawrence Family in the control room.

They all showed expressions of fear and unease when they saw Tian Ming before them.

Tian Ming glanced at the crowd before him, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. But such a smile was chilling.

"Don't be afraid; you have at least 10 days left to live. Duke Lawrence traveled thousands of miles to confront me. He ambushed my Shelter and kidnapped my girlfriend. Now, you have two paths before you."

The simultaneous interpretation equipment translated Tian Ming's words into their native language. Below, there was a complete silence; no one dared to utter a sound. Before the Apocalypse, they were all prominent figures, true nobles.

Now facing the threat of death, it was impossible not to be afraid. Once a person has more possessions, they become particularly attached to this world and particularly afraid of death.

Tian Ming paused and continued, "I plan to replace the leader of your family. This person's name is Charlie Lawrence. I will keep all the equipment in this Shelter for you. You can use these devices to persuade Duke Lawrence to hand over power. You can also remotely command your family's other Shelters, contact your closest relatives, and accept Charlie's incorporation."

"Of course, you can also choose not to cooperate and just observe. If I'm unhappy with anyone who takes no action, it's normal for me to casually eliminate a couple of them. If my woman is gone, I will drag all of you to hell with me."

As Tian Ming's words fell, the control room was plunged into a deathly silence.

"Take your time to think, and don't play any tricks. You can start acting now. If you're afraid of death, quickly contact your Duke and tell him to bring Shen Yuan back and get lost." Tian Ming finished speaking, then turned and left the control room.

Lisa followed him. Tian Ming arrived at the most luxurious guest room in the Shelter and glanced at Lisa, who was trailing him. Throughout the entire process, Lisa was the one who suffered the most.

"Tell the kitchen to send some good food and drinks; I'm starving, damn it!" Tian Ming treated Lisa like a servant.

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat the best food your family has. Let me see what's different between what your top-tier family eats and what we ordinary people eat?"

Lisa was worn down and had no temper left; she quickly ordered someone to prepare food. She looked at Tian Ming, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.

Although Tian Ming was harsh with her, due to the mental control, Lisa's hatred for him always failed to materialize. This was probably a form of masochism, the kind that couldn't be controlled. This masochism was exactly like being a simp, and it was impossible to escape.
