Chapter 114

Chapter 88: h.e.l.l

Zhang Mu had released a single vine when he was approaching the evolver and he purposely revealed a weak point so that the evolver would lose his vigilance . This gave the Bloodvine Lotus a chance to strike out and take care of the evolver in a single blow .

Zhang Mu recalled to his embarra.s.sment the first time he came to the gates . He showed off his true powers too early and allowed the evolver to have the time to press the alarm, warning their leader of his presence and resulted in them finis.h.i.+ng the deal outside the gates .

The evolver not only has the capabilities, but he was also decisive and sensitive when faced with opponents stronger than him . This must have been the other reason why he was chosen as a gate guard . However, Zhang Mu was not going to make the same mistake twice . If he had allowed the evolver press the alarm, he may as well retire early .

Zhang Mu’s gaze circled the spears on the ground and was amazed by their numbers . He didn’t know that the base could afford so many spears for the evolver . Although the spears could be reused, the sheer quant.i.ty was still very surprising .

Zhang Mu quietly jumped down from the gate and moved between the ruins to the central building . His instinct told him that the people would all be gathered there .

As expected, Zhang Mu heard some faint sounds as he was nearing the building . It must be the people of this survival base . At this timing, w.a.n.g Liang and his team would have been outside scavenging for supplies . These people are indeed very free .

However, when Zhang Mu got closer and he managed to see the entire landscape, he knew why they were still staying at the base . A few pots boiling with water were laid on the flat piece of land in the middle of the unfinished building . Each pot was surrounded by around ten people and they were happily eating away .

Despite the steam, Zhang Mu managed to see what was in the pots .

Each pot was filled with dismembered parts of a human .

Although Zhang Mu had seen people who ate other humans, most of them did it for two reasons . One reason was that they were famished and the other was that these people were s.a.d.i.s.tic . For the first kind, they had no more food and if there wasn’t anyone to help them, they would die of hunger . As for the s.a.d.i.s.tic ones, they were discriminated by all the other human beings and chased out of the survival bases . Without the protection of these bases, they would die very soon out in the wild . People who ate humans never live for long . Hence, Zhang Mu had not heard news about these people for a long time .

Eating humans was a taboo in every survival base .

However, in this survival base, almost everyone was eating human meat, right in front of him . Zhang Mu finally understood why they dared to sneak such an attack on w.a.n.g Liang and his team . In their minds, they don’t view themselves as humans . Humans are food to them . Hence, why should they bother?

It seemed like the middle-aged man had recognised how powerful Zhang Mu was and concealed himself well, doing a trade with Zhang Mu outside . Thinking back, Zhang Mu felt that if he had not displayed his powers then, he might have become food too .

Zhang Mu suddenly realised why they refused new additions to the survival base . They were crazy but scared too . They became monsters, yet afraid that other people would find out . Anyone that didn’t follow them would probably be lying in the pot now . Sadly, most people gave in and followed their leader on this path of no return .

One of the evolvers finished the entire pot of human soup and still felt hungry . He waved his hands . The rest of the people immediately understood him and a skinny fellow made his way into the unfinished building .

After a while, the skinny man pulled a ragged little girl out . The girl was already in a state of stupor . However, when she was pulled to the pot of boiling water, she immediately started crying . The skinny man beside her sneered as his face was filled with greediness . He scanned the little girl’s body, contemplating how much meat she could give to the people .

No one cared about the crying little girl . These people had already lost their humanity . They were enjoying the process of seeing the little girl cry . To them, this was music to their ears . The louder and more miserably the girl cried, the more excited they felt .

Five minutes pa.s.sed and the little girl had no more energy to cry anymore . The people’s excitement started to dwindle and the man who waved his hands just now spoke some words . Right after that, the skinny man acted and lifted the little girl up, preparing to take off all her clothes and dumped her into the pot .

Zhang Mu wanted to save the girl immediately when he saw her but he held himself back as the leader still hadn’t appeared – the silver-hair middle-aged man . However, he couldn’t do nothing . How could he let a little girl die in front of him just because he wanted to wait for the right moment to attack and subdue everyone at one go?

He had been through a lot in his past life and his heart had became cold . However, his human blood was still running . It was still warm!

Zhang Mu came out of his hiding place and showed off his presence . This action caused all the people, no all the monsters, to look at Zhang Mu . The skinny man put down the little girl and glared at Zhang Mu dangerously .

When tens of people holding human bones looked at you, even Zhang Mu felt uncomfortable . A few of them even held skulls and licked them in front of him, adding on to his discomfort .

Zhang Mu wanted to conceal his ident.i.ty, but that seemed irrelevant now .

He was not going to let anyone of these people walk out alive .

This was his baseline and was also the baseline of the human race .
