Chapter 85: Disobedience or Death
Is there really someone, even subconsciously, who doesn't want to be stronger?
In the past, humans would go out of their way to get more money, and when they finally had it, they wanted more. When they have enough money to make life as luxurious and comfortable as possible, humans seek political status or military power...... Humans are always insatiable and never really satisfied, even after achieving their past goals.
This is even more true in this new world after the Soul Records came to Earth.
In this apocalyptic new world, the possibility of becoming stronger is almost everywhere. Just pick up any weapon and take to the streets to fight zombies or any other being that can evolve you, whether the enemy is weak or strong.
However, while the possibility of becoming stronger is everywhere, this rule also applies to death. Everyone must be mentally prepared that the moment they leave, they may never come back alive.
Everybody wants to be strong, everybody wants power, everybody wants to be respected, eats the best food, and enjoys the praise and longing gaze of beauty; Few people are willing to risk their lives to achieve such success.
Just now, Bai Ze gave Fu Xuefeng a chance to become stronger, but he didn't understand it and missed it.
Obtaining a weapon, especially a rare-level artifact, is even more important than having food or a safe place to live; Because with weapons of this level, even ordinary people can gain the power to fight zombies or other creatures, evolve, and obtain food or shelter.
Fu Xuefeng is unwilling to kill? Of course, Bai Ze would not force him. But even when he knelt down and pleaded, shedding tears of remorse, it was too late. Such an opportunity did not come easily, and since he chose his morality above all else, then he must take responsibility for his choices and consequences.
Feeling Fu Xuefeng's envious and regretful gaze, Cai Jingyi gritted her teeth and raised the dagger with trembling hands.
"Wait, wait! Please don't kill me! ”
The student's eyes were wide open, and the fear on his face had turned hideous. But how could he not be afraid? He's going to face death!
"Imagine what would happen if you didn't have the power." Bai Ze's voice sounded behind Cai Jingyi, encouraging her and giving her courage, "If you're unlucky, maybe you'll die." Moreover, it is very likely that you will be abused by such a scumbag for the rest of your life. ”
Hearing his words, Cai Jingyi bit her lip and no longer hesitated. Under the frightened gazes of the students and the shocked gazes of the others, her arms swung at a speed that would be difficult for ordinary people to keep up with.
The young student felt a pain in his chest and looked down to see blood beginning to ooze from the wound; Right in the heart of the place. He raised his head and met the killer's eyes for a moment, the light in his eyes vanished, and his lifeless body fell to the ground.
Cai Jingyi's face sank, and she reached out to cover her mouth, looking at the red blood on the ground. She staggered back a few steps, but was held by two strong arms to prevent her from falling to the ground.
"Well done, you not only killed a scumbag, but also gained strength, isn't it great?" Bai Ze praised and encouraged her.
"Yes, yes...... That's it......" Cai Jingyi was almost speechless and nodded. Although Bai Ze's words were mixed with all kinds of rhetoric, the truth was that she was willing to believe Bai Ze's words at this moment.
After pacifying his subordinates, under the gaze of everyone, Bai Ze took out another thing from his backpack.
It's a pair of gloves with pointed knuckles that look like they can crush rocks. This pair of gloves was actually the second item that Bai Ze got from Shadow Tiger's last orb. Apparently, Bai Ze was unlucky, as he had better gloves.
[Power Glove (Normal-level Treasure): Can break through the defense of any enemy below level 15, and automatically increases strength +3 when equipped]
"Zhong Deok, do you want it?" Bai Ze waved his gloves and looked at him and asked.
Although the gloves are not very good, the stat point bonus is almost equivalent to two levels; Two initial levels may not seem like much, but leveling up after level 15 is not that easy and requires considerable effort. So, from this point of view, 3 attribute points are really good.
After hesitating for a second, seeing Cai Jingyi stroking his new weapon, more calmly than just now, Zhong De nodded and took a step forward.
Without saying a word, he threw a punch in the chest of another survivor who had instigated the riot, directly blasting his heart into smithereens, along with a few bones. The male student spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes full of disbelief, just like his former companion, and fell lifeless.
Unlike Cai Jingyi, Zhong De's face became pale, but his reaction was much calmer. He picked up the glove and put it on, then fell silent again.
Bai Ze saw that he was a man of few words, so he smiled and praised: "Good job, Zhong De." ”
"Conlan, next time there is something good, the opportunity will be left to you." Bai Ze did not forget his last subordinate and the only healer in the team.
Conlan took a deep breath and nodded firmly. She was a little jealous that she didn't have a chance to get the treasure, but at the same time she was glad that she didn't have to kill. Such a conflicting feeling made her unconsciously relieved and had more time to adapt to this sudden change.
After the death of two more survivors, the other four troublemakers were naturally terrified. However, before they could say a word, a black shadow appeared in front of them, and in the next second, it broke the necks of the four people, ending their lives without hesitation, and there was no superfluous explanation.
After solving the root cause of the riot, Bai Ze looked at the survivors, and this time, he didn't care about the stares he received.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the first and last time I will say this to you......" Bai Ze's voice was as cold as ice, echoing in the parking lot: "From now on, if any of you dare to cause the slightest trouble and do not obey the order, then there will be only one death!" You don't want to work? Don't want to help? Of course! Then hide in the corner and don't get in my way! …… If any of you dare to stop me and cause trouble, I will take his dog life with my own hands! ”
The faces of everyone present turned pale and they nodded their heads again and again. Although none of them did anything wrong, they all secretly reminded each other over and over again, be careful not to violate any rules, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Seeing that everyone nodded obediently, Bai Ze casually concluded: "If you are not satisfied with anything, get out of here now, no one will stop you." ”
Some people hesitated when they heard Bai Ze's last words. In particular, some hot-blooded male students are unwilling to be treated like dogs. However, the blood of these people was cold, and they remembered the danger outside, and obediently swallowed all their dissatisfaction.
Seeing that no one spoke, and no one stood up to leave, Bai Ze smiled coldly and looked at Chen He and the others.
