At the Neon man's words, Shanjian Yezhong, whose face had been slack a moment before, suddenly became agitated. He shook his head frantically and made a gurgling sound, trying to stop the idiot from speaking.
Chu Heng did not know about the existence of their base. The man was in the light while his brother was in the dark. This situation was very beneficial to his brother.
But now that this idiot had said it, even a fool would be on guard, let alone this devil.
With the temperament of the devil in front of him, he would definitely think of a way to eliminate the threat completely.
Thinking of this, Shanjian Yezhong quickly contacted his brother and asked him to evacuate the base as soon as possible.
On the other side, after saying this, the Neon man thought that he couldn't live, so his expression turned ruthless. He shouted, "Long live the Emperor!" and prepared to commit suicide.
"Stop them both. Don't let them kill themselves!"
Chu Heng reminded them.
An Ya and Meng Yue seemed to have woken up from a dream and quickly controlled the two of them.
Chu Heng looked thoughtfully at Shanjian Yezhong, who was lying on the ground, and waved at the middle-aged man.
"Tell me about their base…"
The middle-aged man trembled slightly. His eyes flashed with fear as he walked over.
"They took me to the base yesterday afternoon. I'm not sure of the details."
"Tell me what you know!" Chu Heng said coldly.
The middle-aged man thought for a moment and started talking.
According to him, this base was located in a small processing plant three to four miles away from here. Although it was called a base, it was actually just a gathering place for 20 to 30 people. A third of the people were from the Dragon Nation, including both men and women.
It was purely a coincidence that they came here. When they were searching for supplies, they realized that the zombies here had been cleaned up, so they wanted to try their luck and see if they could find anything good. Unexpectedly, they bumped into An Ya and the other two who were choosing clothes. Then, a conflict broke out.
As for the armed forces in the base, the middle-aged man was completely unaware of them. He only knew that the boss of the base was a man named Shanjian Ruizhi, who was the biological brother of Shanjian Yezhong.
"Shanjian
Chu Heng didn't know what to say about the Neonese's naming talent. He frowned and pondered.
From what the Neon man had said, it was obvious that this Shanjian Ruizhi was also an Awakened, and much stronger than his brother, Shanjian Yezhong. Otherwise, the man wouldn't have said those words.
At this moment, Chu Heng suddenly thought of something. It was understandable that there were Dragon Nation women in the Neonese base, but why were there Dragon Nation men like this man?
This was a little strange. Chu Heng did not believe that these Neonese people would be so kind as to protect those Dragon Nation men.
"What's the point of keeping the Dragon Nation men like you at the base? Is he that kind?" Chu Heng looked at the middle-aged man.
"Well…" The man hesitated, as if he had something to hide.
"Speak!" Chu Heng's long saber landed on the man's shoulder as he said coldly.
The man's behavior suddenly made him uneasy.
Under Chu Heng's substantial threat, the man was forced to tell the truth.
"I'm sure you've already guessed the use of the Dragon Nation women in the base."
"As for men, most of them are used for experiments, such as testing if the water source is polluted and if it can be used for drinking and washing.
"Sometimes they also bleed men or cut off their limbs to attract zombies.
"Anyway, in their eyes, we're not human. We're just expendable."
Chu Heng's face instantly turned ashen. The image that the man had mentioned lingered in his mind. Anger burned in his heart, making him unable to calm down.
When Zhang Xiaodao and the others heard the man's words, their expressions turned extremely ugly. They looked at the two Neonese people lying at the side with killing intent and could not help but want to kill them.
Strangely, even though he was clearly furious, Chu Heng was extremely calm at this moment. He said calmly to Zhang Xiaodao and the others.
"You can torture them, but don't kill them. I'm going to question them later. After that, you can do whatever you want with them."
After saying that, Chu Heng turned his gaze to the middle-aged man.
He was talking about most of the Dragon Nation's men, but it was obvious that he was not one of them. Then what was the role of a person like him in the base?
"You said that most men are like this. What about the rest?" Chu Heng said calmly to the man.
From his expression alone, it was impossible to tell that the anger in his heart had reached its peak.
Hearing Chu Heng ask about "the rest", the middle-aged man's expression turned a little ugly.
"The rest of them…" The man hesitated for a moment, then said, "The rest of them know a little Neonese and can communicate with them simply."
"Shanjian Ruizhi will provide them with basic food. There's only one thing they need to do every day: attract other Dragon Nation people to the base or tell them the location.
"Shanjian Ruizhi will send someone to 'rescue' them and bring them back to base."
Hearing this, An Ya and Meng Yue were puzzled. Could it be that Shanjian Ruizhi and the others had spent so much effort just to find someone to do experiments on them?
Chu Heng and Zhang Xiaodao looked at each other. Their eyes were as cold as ice and filled with bloodthirsty killing intent. Clearly, they understood the meaning behind it.
Seeing the two women's confusion, Chu Heng explained with a murderous expression.
"Shanjian Ruizhi did this for the Space Ring Fragments on the players. After using these people, he will infect them into zombies and kill them. Not only will he be able to obtain Crystal Cores and Space Ring Fragments, but he might also be able to obtain seeds."
"What a vicious mind…"
After hearing Chu Heng's explanation, the expressions of the two women changed drastically again. They looked at the middle-aged man with undisguised killing intent.
They all knew very well that the middle-aged man would not be the former kind of person in the base.
The Neonese were obviously hateful, but these people who helped the Neonese persecute their own countrymen deserved to be killed even more.
There was nothing more to be asked from this man. Chu Heng's gaze shifted to the other two Neon men.
After some thought, Chu Heng threw the middle-aged man a can of beef that was about to expire.
"I'm going to interrogate them. You need to translate for me. Here's your fee."
The man caught the can firmly and looked pleasantly surprised.
Although Shanjian Ruizhi would provide them with food, that would only keep them from starving to death. As for the taste, it wasn't something they needed to consider at all.
More importantly, Chu Heng's attitude made him feel relieved.
Although he did not elaborate, anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance what kind of people he belonged to in the base. He had always been worried that Chu Heng and the others would kill him because of this identity.
Now that he saw that not only did Chu Heng not show any intention of killing him, but he was even willing to give him a can of meat, he was naturally overjoyed.
Seeing how Chu Heng treated this 'traitor' who had harmed his own people, Meng Yue immediately pouted and whispered unhappily.
"What's wrong with Brother Chu Heng? This person is so horrible, but he offered him canned beef. Even I haven't even eaten his canned beef!"
Zhang Xiaodao also frowned slightly. He glanced at Chu Heng, who was walking towards the two Neonese people, and did not say anything.
Just as the two of them were misunderstanding Chu Heng, An Ya smiled and stroked Meng Yue's little head.
"In ancient times, even the execution grounds had to give the prisoners a last meal. Don't worry, this can is not so delicious!"
