Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 173 Are We Easier to Bully?
Just as Hei Ge pounced forward, Fatty suddenly raised his foot and kicked Hei Ge hard in the face. Hei Ge screamed miserably, covering his bloodied face and collapsing to the ground, rolling around in agony.
"Damn, you want to sneak attack me? Just because I'm fat, you think I'm easy to bully?"
Fatty stared at Hei Ge with a look of disdain, spitting out a mouthful of saliva.
"You think you're fast? Are you faster than those zombies? They never even managed to touch me, and you? Bah!"
Because he hadn't had the chance yet, Li Chenzhou hadn't given Fatty the evolution serum. However, under his deliberate guidance, Fatty was now truly aware of everything around him. After all, a moment of carelessness could mean death.
Under the shadow of death, human progress is always the fastest—when a mad dog chases you, everyone can break the ten-second mark in the 100-meter dash!
"What's going on?"
At this moment, Li Chenzhou finally arrived and asked, looking at Hei Ge on the ground.
"I'm not sure yet!"
Fatty told the truth and then pointed to the survivors still kneeling on the ground, who were now looking at Hei Ge with undisguised satisfaction.
"They said this guy and his brothers grabbed some girls and women and took them inside. This guy denied it and then tried to steal my gun, so I kicked him! He's out of commission now!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Hearing this, Li Chenzhou looked down at Hei Ge, who was still rolling and wailing. He frowned slightly, walked forward, grabbed the pistol from Fatty's hand, and fired four shots at Hei Ge.
After the four shots, Hei Ge had been shot once in each knee and shoulder, and his body no longer rolled because he had already passed out!
"That's what I call out of commission!"
Li Chenzhou shoved the pistol back into the hands of the stunned Fatty, said, and then walked toward the building.
"I'll go in and take a look. You keep an eye on things here. No one is allowed to leave this place. Shoot anyone who disobeys!"
"..."
Fatty stared blankly at Hei Ge, whose limbs were broken, and then looked at Li Chenzhou's back. His chubby face twitched for a moment. This was the first time he had seen this side of Li Chenzhou.
At this time, Duan Lei and Grey Bear also arrived one after the other. Helpless, Fatty had to repeat what he had said earlier. Duan Lei looked at the kneeling survivors without saying a word, but instead looked at Hei Ge's subordinates and said:
"Who participated in the previous revelry? Step forward now, and save us all some trouble later!"
Hearing Duan Lei's words, Hei Ge's underlings looked at Hei Ge, who was lying in a pool of blood, his life or death unknown, and then looked at each other. Two of them actually turned around and ran, but just as they turned their bodies, two gunshots rang out, and both of them fell to the ground, clutching their thighs and howling.
Everyone could see clearly that the two men had been shot in the right knee, with only a layer of skin still connecting the lower leg…
Duan Lei, who had already raised his arm and aimed his gun at the two men, remained in his stance, looking at Grey Bear with some surprise. He hadn't fired those two shots, even though he had intended to. Grey Bear had fired first—after all, Grey Bear was the professional; his movements were faster than Duan Lei's.
"You didn't think I only knew how to kill zombies, did you?"
Grey Bear put away his rifle and looked at the two men.
"I'll kill as many of these kinds of scum as there are. I won't show any mercy! Besides, they're definitely going to die, but they can't die too easily. They have to pay a sufficient price before they slowly die!"
There seemed to be immense hatred in Grey Bear's words, which made Duan Lei somewhat puzzled. However, he immediately understood because Grey Bear also knew that they wouldn't be staying at any one base for long. Therefore, this base would definitely have its own leader.
So, Grey Bear was sending a warning, letting the people of this base know what the consequences would be if they acted recklessly—clearly, even if it wasn't his own base, Grey Bear hoped that this base would at least have some bottom line.
Hei Ge's underlings also heard Grey Bear's words, which filled their eyes with deep fear. But with those two men as examples, none of them dared to run away. They all stood there trembling.
Seeing those thugs who had been running rampant in Wu Village, oppressing men and taking women, turned into this, the other survivors felt an unspeakable sense of relief. Even the survivors who had come with Li Chenzhou and his group felt relieved at this sight.
The fact that Li Chenzhou and his group were able to punish these people at least showed that they weren't like that, that they wouldn't be as reckless as those thugs. This was certainly a good thing for them.
Li Chenzhou had only been inside the small building for a few minutes before he came out with a gloomy face and said:
"A few women go inside, take some clothes, and put them on everyone inside. Then have them come out and identify the people!"
At this point, even if Li Chenzhou hadn't explicitly said what it was like inside, the others more or less understood. The kneeling survivors instantly got up and pounced on Hei Ge's underlings, who were standing to the side, cursing and kicking them.
Moreover, among the survivors, there were three men who also rushed toward the farmhouse, intending to bring out their loved ones!
Seeing this, Li Chenzhou frowned and raised his gun, firing a shot into the sky.
"Don't move! Everyone back! I said, we'll wait for them to come out and identify them! And no men are allowed to go inside!"
"What's there to identify? They're definitely all involved! They're all in the same gang! Just kill them all! Everyone, let's do it together!"
A survivor shouted loudly, then picked up a brick from the ground and smashed it down on a thug's head…
"Bang!"
A gunshot rang out, and the man's wrist, which was holding the brick, was shot. He clutched his wrist in pain and squatted down. When the others saw this, although they were still grief-stricken, they all stopped and stared blankly at Li Chenzhou.
"Just kill them all and be done with it? Then where were you when they took your loved ones away?"
Li Chenzhou looked coldly at the survivors.
"Why didn't you rush up and kill them all back then?"
"But… but they were all holding weapons and they even killed two people!"
A survivor replied in a low voice.
"You were all afraid because they had weapons, so you did whatever they told you to do. Even when they took your loved ones away and killed people in front of you, you didn't dare to resist!"
Li Chenzhou sneered.
"We're holding weapons now too, and we're holding guns. But when I told you to back away, you all ignored my words! I'd really like to know what makes you think we're easier to bully than they are?"
Hearing Li Chenzhou's words, the survivors all looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.
"Now, a few women go inside, put clothes on the people inside, and then bring them out to identify the people who abused them. This time, do you all understand?"
Looking at these survivors, Li Chenzhou repeated what he had said earlier…
