Chapter 117
Warning: Gore, cannibalism, cliff
Long Snake Island
The day after and the others left, the weather was still as hot as ever and the atmosphere was suffocating. Except for the heat-resistant fire ability users, everyone felt a little uncomfortable and was driven to the seaside salt field. The working slaves were sloppier than usual and many even dazed on the beach.
The guards who guarded the slaves were more irritable than eve and didn’t stop using the whip left, kicked them with their military boots and continued to verbally abuse them. The slaves, who had been shopped, fell to the sand and the wound gotten from the whip was stimulated by the sea salt making them let out a miserable howl. This was hell on earth; alive, they could only endure endless despair and pain. There could see no trace of hope or light, but they have no other way to die nor suddenly turn into mermaids.
However, among the group of desperate and numb slaves, there was a tall figure hiding behind the people, avoiding the touch of the guard’s leather whip and his fists, so as not to hurt himself. A grim face hung over his face, his back was slumped and he showed a humble manner, but in the depth of his eyes facing the sand, there was a tenacious light and a wild beast waiting for the kill.
Clenching his teeth and pressing back his heart’s violent killing intentions, Dou Heng stretched his hands into his pant’s pockets, using a soft hold to hold a melted and deformed yet carefully wrapped in several layers of plastic, lollipop. His cracked and peeling lips burst into a gentle smile then.
Only because of this thought in his heart, he must live on. Only to have the opportunity to see him again, hear him and get even closer to him...
The brutal beatings of the guards became even more brutal and the slaves had nowhere to hide, but could only huddle together, kneeling on the ground and bear it silently. The few people kneeling at the outer periphery had their minds broken and had already passed out. None could see any good piece of meat on their bodies. Several guards were still on their feet, scolding up and down.
People in the apocalyptic days faced the threat of hunger and death at all times. Moral concepts had gradually diminished over time and everyone’s personality had become more or less corrupter. Their self-conscious was extremely scarce. Violence and cruelty had replaced kindness and compassion. The most secret and darkest desires in one’s heart was infinitely magnified. The abuse and even killing of their own kind had become a way for many people to entertain themselves.
The ordinary people living at the bottom were undoubtedly living in hell. However, they didn’t know that the real hell was still to come.
"Enough, don’t fight! Save your energy and wait to work later." A rough voice stopped the atrocities of the guards and the slaves kneeling on the ground were relieved. Only Dou Heng in the crowd suddenly had his complexion suddenly tightening.
The people who called out were Bao Long and Kang Zhengyuan, and behind them were a dozen or so subordinates who were looking at the ragged slaves with unwillingness.
"Boss, you’re here." Several guards stepped forward and bowed in salute.
"Yeah, is there enough sea salt?" Bao Long nodded slightly and asked the guard.
"There’s enough," a guard replied resolutely.
"Very good." Bao Long grinned, looked at the slaves and waved his hand, "Take off your clothes and bathe in the sea. Clean up!"
The slaves were confused, but they didn’t dare to resist. They took off their clothes obediently, walked to the beach naked and bathed in the sea water. They didn’t dare to go to deep because there were mutant piranhas in the water and mutant seaweeds that dragged people to the bottom of the ocean. Dou Heng folded his clothes neatly and placed them on a rack near the beach. When turning his back, a sharp cold light flashed in his eyes. He noticed the killing intention from Bao Long and the others.
Bao Long looked to several guards, pointed at several people who were unconscious on the ground and said, "Strip them and wash them clean."
"Yes, sir." Several guards answered and carried the people to scrub in the seawater. When they felt that the others were almost completely washed, they lifted them up and threw them into the white sea salt field. Then they looked at Bao Long and asked, "Boss, do we start?"
"Zhao Ying has gone to report so let’s start. When Gong Yuanhang gets here, he’ll see a good show!" Bao Long’s blue eyes flickered with a vicious light, like an evil spirit from hell.
Dou Heng was slowly scrubbing his body, but his ears were listening carefully to the conversation between Bao Long and the others. Hearing them mention Gong Yuanhang, his dark and deep eyes held no light for a moment. It seemed that Bao Long came to the sea today not only to kill people, but also concealed a plot for the Gong family. Thinking of this, Dou Heng’s face became cold and his fists clenched unconsciously.
A guard nodded and pulled out a dagger from his waist and fiercely inserted it into the stomach of an unconscious slave. The slave screamed, awoken from his coma, and watched as he was cut open. Strings of his large intestine and small intestine was pulled and tossed out before his abdominal cavity was filled with sea salt and eventually, he died in such a horrendous way. It was terrifying to watch.
Hearing his screams, the bathing slaves looked back one after another and were scared stiff. A few of them reacted quickly and knew that the situation wasn’t right. They immediately ran to the depths of the sea, but after only a few steps, was pierced in the back of his brain by a bullet, staining the light blue water with their blood.
Dou Heng frowned and immediately got up and walked towards the beach. When the bloody smell attracted the hordes of piranhas, it would be too late to leave the water and, sooner or later, they would all die. He would rather give up a resistance rather than go down easily.
Sure enough, as soon as he left the sea, several slaves screamed and were surrounded by swarms of piranhas, eating at them. In a few moments, they became skeletons with only their white bones remaining. There were wolves and tigers in front and back of them and the slaves screamed again and again. There were those who were desperately trying to swim further out into the sea while others hurried to the shore and there were still some who were standing still, waiting to die. The scene was chaotic.
As soon as Dou Heng got onto the shore, he was caught by two guards and dragged towards the white salt field. They seemed to be ready to kill a second time. Dou Heng’s eyes opened wide, the white of his eyes were covered in bloodshots as he struggled. He overturned a guard with a backhanded punch, bent his knees and thrust into the lower abdomen of the other guard, making them faint at the edge of the salt field.
When the other guards saw this, they took out their guns and aimed them at Dou Heng.
"Stop!" Gong Yuanhang arrived in time to stop their actions. His face was as pale as a paper and he held his stomach with one hand while being held by Zhao Ying with the other as he walked towards Bao Long with difficulty. Behind the two, Gong Xiangyi rushed over with three ability users, her expression very anxious.
"You’re here." Bao Long smiled at Gong Yuanhang.
"Don’t kill them, I’ll trade our food for their lives. Say it, how much do you want?" When approaching, Gong Yuanhang asked between panting breaths, his forehead covered with big drops of cold sweat.
Several guards retracted their guns, knocked Dou Heng to the ground and slammed his head into the gravel. Dou Heng desperately lifted his head and shouted hoarsely towards Gong Yuanhang, "Leave!"
"Leave? It’s too late!" Bao Long sneered, approaching Gong Yuanhang and whispering to him, "You’re dead and your food, it’s mine. Why should I trade these people for you? Isn’t that bad for me?"
Gong Xiangyi hurried and yelled, "Bao Long, you dare! My brother will not let you go when he returns!"
"Yes, I don’t dare." Bao Long raised his hands and faked a look of fear before he frowned and ruthlessly added, "Gong Yuanhang, the son you gave birth to is actually a four ability fourth-level high-grade master! I was cheated so bad! With him here, who would dare to mess with you? But unfortunately, he’s not here! I heard that he’s filial, so if I hold you captive, what can he do to me when he returns?"
Speaking of this, Bao Long seemed very proud and laughed out loud.
"How do you know?" Gong Yuanhang asked, his face changing dramatically. The strength of his son had always been a secret of the Eastern District and shouldn’t have been leaked.
"Well, not everyone’s loyal to your son. Aren’t there exceptions?" Bao Long was proud and reached out to Zhao Ying. Zhao Ying smiled slightly, set aside Gong Yuanhang and drew into Bao Long’s arms.
"Zhao Ying? It turned out that you deliberately told me the news that Bao Long was going to kill people. So, what about my son’s men? Did you bet all your money on Long Snake Island?" Gong Yuanhang stayed strong for a long time as he thought through his situation. No wonder no one came to stop such a big event.
"You’re right. Your people have been taken away by me. I’ve arranged machine guns and artillery at the door. When they return, they will shot with holes. Who told them to try and kill me? I am stronger than them! As for your son, hehe~" Bao Long licked his lips and an extremely evil expression took over his face as he spoke, word for word, "With you in my hands, won’t he obediently obey me? I will cut his hands and feet first and then, for three days and three nights, let my men f**k him on rotation, let him our breeding took with his pale skin, tender body and misty eyes, hahaha~~"
Bao Long’s words were vulgar and unbearable to hear and arouse the nightmare in Gong Xiangyi. Her eyes became red and her face distorted in horror as she screamed. Bao Long pushed Zhao Ying away from his arms, stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, pulling her close with force and insincerely said, "Of course, I won’t forget this beauty. Although you’re not as pretty as your brother, but you’re still very nice and good! You brother and sister will serve me together!"
"A**hole, let me go!" Gong Xiangyi struggled hard and, at the same time, couldn’t control her physical reaction. Her face turned pale and nausea overtook her. Gong Yuanhang rushed forward to rescue his daughter and was pulled to a stop by a strength ability user that came with him. The other two came forward to work with Bao Long. They surrounded by Bao Long’s men and was dragged away.
Gong Yuanhang’s chest undulated violently. His body shook a few times, spat out blood and turned towards the beach. Gong Xiangyi forgot about her struggles and shouted, "Daddy!"
The entangled group of people didn’t notice how terrible Dou Heng’s expression was when he was pushed into the grave and when Bao Long had said, "Cut off his hands and feet and fuck him for three day and three nights." A devastating killing intent surged into Dou Heng’s heart, impacting his limbs and mind. They dared to attack the person who he dreamed to protect. How dare these people?!!
He watched Gong Yuanhang spit up blood, the scattered blood spread equally in the depth of his eyes, dying them a dark red. The red changed a little and finally turned into a dark violet colour.
With his eyes closed, Dou Heng shook his fist and a powerful electric current broke out of his body. The guards suppressing him instantly turned into several charred corpses. The unique cracking sound of high-voltage electricity immediately attracted everyone’s attention. They stopped and turned to look at Dou Heng, facing his deep violet eyes as his tall body was surrounded by flashing silver and white spark, with a startling look.
CrazedCookies: Dou Heng’s so filial to his father-in-law~! And that Zhao Ying!!! This was why I hated him so much!!!!!
