Doomsday: with unlimited warehouse system

Chapter 325 as bait to lure

Edmund's statement left everyone puzzled once again. Why would this guy want to take them to the wasteland world? They had no idea what Edmund's true intentions were.

Fatso, at this point, stepped forward with his large bone club and scoffed, "Kid, there's no need for you to act all mysterious. We'll go to the wasteland world on our own; we don't need your guidance."

Just like Charles, Fatso sensed the malicious intent in Edmund's demeanor right away. Thus, his tone naturally carried a hint of hostility. If it weren't for the uncertainty regarding the stranger's abilities, he would have already swung his club at Edmund's head.

Edmund, on the other hand, shot Fatso a disdainful glance and remarked, "Do you dare to speak to me like that? Are you even qualified?" As he spoke, he swiftly raised his right hand, and a black energy shot out from his sleeve, heading straight for Fatso's chest.

The black energy moved at incredible speed, catching everyone off guard. It struck Fatso's chest with the force of a freight train, causing him to crash into the wall behind him as if he had been hit by a locomotive.

Everyone gasped in shock, and they rushed over to help Fatso to his feet. At this moment, they realized that the stranger was here to cause trouble. However, before they could unleash their powers, Edmund sneered and said, "Don't waste your efforts. Even if all of you team up, you're no match for me. I suggest you cooperate and follow me willingly." With that, he raised his hand again, releasing another burst of black energy.

"Watch out! It's poison!" Sophie shouted, trying to warn the others. But it was too late. The black poisonous gas quickly surrounded them, and within moments, their bodies felt as though they had turned into limp mud, with no ability to react.

Edmund looked at them disdainfully and then casually tore open the fabric of space in front of him, pulling all of them inside.

Before David became the new king of the wasteland world, Edmund was well-informed about his every move and had all the information he needed. So, he believed that targeting David's closest allies would be a much easier task. Despite being a Zerg, Edmund had evolved his intelligence, and his cunning exceeded that of ordinary beings.

"Where... where are we? My head... it hurts so much!" Arnold was the first to open his eyes and, overwhelmed by the excruciating pain in his head, let out a painful cry. The others quickly woke up, their faces filled with dread as they surveyed their surroundings. There were no signs of plant life or buildings, and the sky was covered in thick, oppressive clouds. The hostile atmosphere hung heavily in the air, making it difficult to breathe. Combined with the menacing presence of countless zombie-like creatures surrounding them, it felt as if they were about to be devoured at any moment.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the wasteland world," Charles said solemnly as he observed their surroundings. This revelation left everyone with furrowed brows. The source of this content is (f)ir(e).net

From David's descriptions, they knew that the wasteland world was desolate and terrifying. However, actually being there made them realize that the horror exceeded their worst expectations. Moreover, they were surrounded by numerous bizarre creatures that looked at them greedily, as if they were food waiting to be consumed.

"Damn it! Who the hell is that guy? Why is he doing this to us?" Arnold struggled to stand up but found that the poison still hadn't completely dissipated from his body. His limbs felt weak, and he couldn't summon any strength or use his abilities. The others were in the same state as Arnold; they were all helpless.

At that moment, Edmund emerged from the rift in space and looked at the struggling members of the Embers Squad with a mocking tone, "Welcome to the wasteland world! Maybe here you'll get to see how your captain met his end at my hands. I regret to inform you that you're nothing more than pawns in my game."

After speaking, Edmund helplessly spread his hands, then burst into maniacal laughter. His laughter incited furious roars from the surrounding zombie-like creatures, and their eyes gleamed with ferocity as if they were about to charge forward and tear the group apart.

"If you're so tough, release me, and we can duel like real men! Whoever's afraid is the grandson!" Fatso barked fiercely. He wanted to pick up his large bone club that had fallen to the ground, but his weak and feeble arms prevented him from using any strength.

Hearing Fatso's words, Edmund disdainfully glanced at him. He had never regarded the members of the Embers Squad with any importance. In his eyes, these people were just weak survivors in this world. He believed that with a simple gesture, he could easily eliminate them. But right now, he intended to use them as bait to lure David to him. Having David's closest allies in his grasp would surely be a source of great satisfaction.

At this moment, Edmund's ruthless nature was on full display. He disappeared into the rift in space, leaving only the members of the Embers Squad surrounded by countless zombie-like creatures.

"Sophie, can you remove the poison from our bodies?" Charles turned to Sophie after watching Edmund depart.

Sophie was the only healer in their squad, and she should know how to expel the poison and restore their strength. Sophie frowned and shook her head.

While Sophie had taken countermeasures when Edmund released the poison, the poison's potency was overwhelming. Her body had become feeble, and she couldn't use her abilities at all.

After some thought, Sophie remembered that she still had ten high-level pronucleus capsules in her pocket. These were gifts from David when he last visited Dragon City. She had planned to consume these capsules in the afternoon to enhance her abilities, but Edmund's arrival had disrupted those plans.

Sophie had an idea. She struggled to raise her hand and retrieved the ten high-level pronucleus capsules from her pocket. The others noticed her intention and quickly surrounded her to shield her from view. Their hopes now rested on Sophie. They had to protect her at all costs.

Sophie took a deep breath and closed her eyes. She carefully placed the ten high-level pronucleus capsules in her palm and began to focus on absorbing their power.

Meanwhile, Edmund appeared in front of David.
