#661 - Chapter 661: One Man, One Knife
"See that guy! That's Zhao Xin, the ringleader of this defection! I heard he was one of the first to be swayed by New Hope and has been going around Green Zone brainwashing people to join them!"
"Absolutely despicable! I heard he leaked a lot of our Green Zone's important information and even killed a few people who refused to cooperate, making it look like they were attacked by zombies while on patrol!"
"He deserves to be torn to pieces!"
Outside the wall.
Seeing Zhao Xin so agitated that he even dared to curse at his own father, everyone was enraged!
What kind of person is this!?
If he doesn't die today, none of us will be able to calm down!!
We have to give him a good send-off!!
"Alright! Those who want to participate in the revenge, please come here to get a number. Take turns going up and teaching these defectors a lesson!!"
Seeing the scene getting a bit chaotic, Qin Guoqiang started to calm everyone down with a loudspeaker.
It's easy to let everyone vent their anger, just let them do it themselves.
As expected.
Hearing his words, the hundreds, even thousands, of Green Zone personnel began to quiet down, and most of them excitedly ran over to get a number to go on stage and vent their anger.
Whips and various knives were placed on the table in front of the suspended defectors. After going up, they could grab a tool and inflict punishment.
In less than half a minute, a large group of people had gathered in front of the thirty-plus people hanging there.
After receiving their "tools", at Qin Guoqiang's signal, they forcefully lashed out at the prisoners!
Whoosh—
Smack—!
The whip cracked through the air, finally landing on human skin with a chilling sound that made goosebumps rise!
"Aaaaaaah!!!!"
Waves of intense and horrifying screams erupted from the mouths of these defectors!
Pain!!!
Excruciating pain!!
So fucking painful!!!
The places where they were hit felt like they had been branded with red-hot iron bars, the skin splitting open directly, and the wounds emitting an unbearable, intense pain!
Ancient whippings were one of the top tortures, and now that it was being displayed in modern times, it immediately revived the torment techniques created by the ancients.
"Next!"
Qin Guoqiang shouted considerately, asking those who had just finished their attacks and were still wanting more to step down and let others take their place.
Besides those who went out to perform various tasks, there were nearly a thousand people in the entire Green Zone. It would take a long time to let everyone take a turn, so they needed to speed up.
Soon.
A new batch of people came up. This time, everyone chose not whips, but the various knives placed on the table.
These were blunt knives that were not very sharp and could not cut deep wounds.
They fully satisfied the requirement of preventing these defectors from dying quickly.
It was said to be a special supply from the base's interrogation department.
"Aaaaaaah!!! Please let me go!! I really know I was wrong!!! Please give me a chance, aaaaaaah!!!"
Some of the suspended defectors were still expressing their regret. It was unknown whether it was genuine or just to survive, but many people were struggling violently, trying to shake off their fear.
Too late.
Even if they really regretted it now, what had they done before?
Everyone was an adult. Couldn't they think more before acting?
Whatever they did, they should accept the consequences.
Even if it meant death.
The second batch of people who came up were a little nervous. Using a knife to hurt someone was not as direct as using a whip, and it required a certain level of psychological endurance.
Not everyone could kill a chicken with a knife on their first try.
Fortunately, everyone had survived the apocalypse for almost a year, so there was no situation where they couldn't even do this.
"This knife is for you! I hope you can be more clear-headed in your next life! You should have a clear mind to distinguish between right and wrong! At least know that you can't scold your father! He's the one who gave you life!"
An unknown Green Zone Level 1 personnel came to Zhao Xin's front, took a deep breath, said a word to him, and then picked up the knife and forcefully slashed at his exposed arm!
Shirr!
A slight sound passed, and a red scratch appeared on Zhao Xin's right arm.
His eyes widened as he looked at the Level 1 personnel in front of him who had left a mark on him, as if he wanted to eat him alive.
Not only was this Level 1 personnel not afraid, but he also raised his head to meet his gaze.
He was not afraid of this kind of scum who betrayed his own people and disrespected his parents!
He even wanted to give him another knife.
It's just that the base had a rule that each person could only attack once, so he could only regretfully end his punishment.
Watching the person in front of him turn and leave, Zhao Xin's eyes were bloodshot. The severe pain in his body, the gazes of everyone around him, and the fear of facing death made his entire mind and heart almost explode.
Unfortunately, this couldn't change anything.
There was no sudden burst of power.
Nor did he suddenly evolve and mutate into a superman.
This was a relatively normal world.
The second round of personnel completed their punishment, leaving more scars on these defectors.
These defectors cried, cursed, begged for mercy, and used every means to vent their fear and despair.
Only in this way could they briefly forget about death.
Although the pain in their bodies told them that this was an inevitable fact.
Then it was the third batch's turn.
The rotation of punishment was very fast. Everyone consciously came up to complete their attack and then left, without staying on it for too long.
Fourth batch.
Fifth batch.
......
Unconsciously, ten batches of people had already taken turns going up to punish these defectors.
At this time, the people who were hung up had long lost their previous arrogance, and each of them had greatly reduced their momentum and quieted down a lot.
They already knew that no amount of shouting would help. Apart from screaming when it was too painful, they no longer begged for mercy or cursed like they did at the beginning.
Save your energy.
There was still unknown suffering to be endured.
Zhao Xin's side was not quite the same as the people next to him. His eyes were wide open, and he looked at everyone in front of him with hatred.
Especially Qin Guoqiang and other cadres, as well as his father, Zhao Zhigang.
He had to remember the faces of these people!
Even if he died and turned into a vengeful ghost, he would go back and take revenge on these people!
Although he didn't know if he could become a ghost after death.
He could only comfort himself like this.
Occasionally, he would also turn his hateful gaze to Zhu Fen beside him.
He hated her for bringing him into this world but not giving him a life of luxury, no luxury cars, no mansions, no endless pocket money, no endless girls to pick up.
Why was he born into such a "poor" family!!??
He had dreamed of the good life of a rich young master!
He hated it!
"You all go to hell!!"
He shouted this sentence at Zhu Fen and Zhao Zhigang and others!
