Chapter 537 - 309: Killing Until Fear is Good_2
When the third person died, nearly half of them started changing their minds, hoping to negotiate with Li Ang and seek a non-violent solution to the issue.
When the fourth person died, the advocates for negotiations had gained an overwhelming advantage, canceling military operations and promising Li Ang all sorts of things. Indeed, letting bygones be bygones was not enough; they even had to compensate Li Ang for the psychological harm he had suffered.
At this level of carnage, it had about reached its limit. It was impossible to kill them all. While powerful himself, he had none of the cultivator’s abilities to behead someone from miles away; killing one person required traveling to a location, making the efficiency extremely low.
Moreover, if he continued the killings, their mentality might collapse, and perhaps they wouldn’t care about media exposure or civilian lives anymore. In such cases, various types of massive weapons would continuously be hurled at Li Ang, and he couldn’t possibly withstand them.
Being able to successfully leave Japan and also profit from it had exceeded his own expectations.
What Li Ang wanted was simple, just two types of energy crystals: [Psychic Crystals] and [Energy Cores].
For these leaders, these items were not so important, almost equivalent to paying directly in cash. Many of them could afford this compensation with their personal fortunes, not to mention letting the government foot the bill.
Using public funds to buy their own lives, they agreed readily to it.
At this life-and-death juncture, various procedures could be said to be advancing at light speed, letting Li Ang experience the famed "Japanese speed."
Ten [Psychic Crystals] and one [Energy Core]—that was all they could gather in a short time.
Originally, there were more, but Li Ang had already looted those, so they naturally didn’t count.
Of course, waiting a bit longer might allow gathering more, but Li Ang knew well that this was no time for greed.
