Chapter 348 - Execution, Unexpected Change - Part 9
The surprise attack might work if it was not Tang Shaoyang who he attacked. The movement was very slow in his eyes. He easily grabbed the man\'s hand and knocked the sword away.
While he grabbed the man\'s right hand, he punched the man on the belly. The man\'s body flew up. If not for him holding the man\'s hand, the man was for sure sent flying dozens of meters away.
A single punch was enough to subdue the man. The man was just like a helpless rabbit being raised. He was dangling in the air, his face crumpled in pain.
Tang Shaoyang was not giving any mercy to a Traitor. The traitor was the being he despised the most. Something he would not tolerate regardless of the reason.
He sent a kick to the man\'s right knee. The bone-cracking sound rang, very clear to the ears as the bone came out from the knee. It was so brutal and bloody. At this point, the crowd did not dare to look at the scene anymore.
A high-pitched scream rang, this one was the loudest amongst the other screams. Even most of the people did not look at what happened, the scream sent chills to their spine.
Tang Shaoyang did not stop there as he kicked the remaining knee. The bone totally broke as the skin was the remaining thing that connected the thigh and the calf.
"ARGHHHHH!!!" The man let out another chilling scream and he wailed on top of his lungs, "KILL ME! PLEASE KILL ME! JUST KILL ME ALREADY!"
Tang Shaoyang ignored the scream as he tossed the man forward, "Soon, but proper execution is needed to warn the others that you have to pay a big price for betrayal!" He was not purposely saying that aloud, but each word was very clear, to Tarrior, the fake Tarrior, and the crowd.
He motioned to Lu An, Zhang Mengyao, Kairu, and Wen to bring the other four to his front. He pointed at the spot next to the man he just crippled. At the same time, he took out his scythe from the inventory.
Tang Shaoyang brought Jin Fan and Ding Hao to the group. There were seven people in total. Five of them were wailing in pain, while Ding Hao was panicked. He was trying to find a way to escape his current predicament.
Jin Fan was the calmest amongst the seven. The young man realized that his fate was sealed. Begging to Tang Shaoyang was useless, he was aware of that.
Ding Hao was in much better condition than the others. His mind was blank as he could not think of a way to escape. In his desperate attempt, he got up and tried to escape. However, hands immediately caught him. He looked back, it was Kang Xue who had caught him.
Ding Hao\'s eyes brightened at the sight of his "old friend".
This was his desperate attempt to keep his life, "For the sake of our past relationship, I beg you to spare my life. Please tell your boyfriend to spare me…" tears and snot decorated his face as he begged for his life.
Kang Xue did not pay attention to Ding Hao as she forced him to knelt down and presented the neck for Tang Shaoyang.
"No! No! Kang Xue, please don\'t do this to me…" Ding Hao did not want to give up his life here.
"Are you sure about this?" Tang Shaoyang was surprised by the girl who helped him with the execution. Kang Xue was one person who disagreed with his way of addressing the issue as violence always involved. But now she was helping him with the execution, this surprised him.
"Yes!" She replied with a single word and nodded her head.
Tang Shaoyang looked her into the eyes. He soon realized that Zhang Mengyao was not the only one who changed. At this point, he was pretty sure that the fifth portal brought the changes on them, \'I should have asked them what happened there, how inconsiderate of me.\'
He would save that for later as he approached Ding Hao. Standing next to the man who was wailing and begging for his life, Tang Shaoyang raised the scythe.
"This man is Ding Hao! He is the mastermind behind the mess of my base, our home, and he also tried to kill me to take over the base which is under my control!" Tang Shaoyang spoke out loudly, "This is an act of crime that can\'t be tolerated and unforgivable! The sentence for this crime is Death Penalty! Raise your head!"
He raised his voice at the end of his sentence. People tried to look away as they could not bear to look at this scene. But when they heard the voice, everyone subconsciously raised their heads.
The children had been evacuated from the scene a long ago by the Tarriors who followed to the expedition and the ex-soldiers. Tang Shaoyang was not that cruel enough to force the children to watch the execution. However, he wanted the adults to see, this was a warning for them what would happen to them when they tried something similar as Ding Hao.
As soon as he noticed the crowd was looking at him, he moved the scythe. The tip of the blade easily passed through Ding Hao\'s neck. The wail and scream stopped as the head slowly fell from the neck. Blood spurted out, wetting Kang Xue who was holding Ding Hao.
The crowd gasped in shock as most of them immediately looked away. There were not a little who also vomited from watching the execution. This was not something people could brush easily.
Tang Shaoyang did not stop there as he immediately walked toward the crippled Jin Fan. The young man was quiet, laying down with his face facing the ground. The young man noticed the shadow loomed over. He knew that this was his turn to be executed. Jin Fan closed his eyes, accepting his fate.
"Jin Fan, a Tarrior, but he betrayed the base for his own benefit and has been doing several severe misconducts with the authority given to him. This act of crime can\'t be tolerated and unforgivable. The sentence of the crime is a Death Penalty! Raise your head! This is the punishment for the traitor!"
Tang Shaoyang swung the scythe and cut the young man\'s head. There was no hesitation in his action. Soon, Jin Fan\'s head rolled over, and blood poured to the ground.
The execution proceeded until seven people were executed before the masses. Fear and uncertainty now flooded these people. Now they had to rethink staying in this base. The place might be safe from the zombies, but the ruler of this place was merciless.
After he finished the execution, Tang Shaoyang looked toward the group of people who admitted themselves as part of Tarrior. Their countenances were paled after seeing the execution. These people lost their spirits and vigor after seven people were killed.
"What about them?" Zhang Mengyao pointed at the group of twenty-seven people who were now awake. Seven of them tried to attack Tang Shaoyang and the group without knowing his identity.
The crowd\'s hearts tightened, they thought the execution might not be over yet, "Tie and lock them up, all of them. We will be doing a long trial and they will be punished according to their offenses!"
After that, he extended his hand to the seven corpses. He was using [Spirit Advancement] and this human sacrifice was for Zowen. The corpse disappeared into ashes that surprised the crowd even more. They were wondering what happened.
"This will be a long trial," he let out a soft sigh as he walked toward Wei Xi, "The cop game is starting, it\'s your turn now!" He tapped Wei Xi\'s shoulder three times while saying that in a low voice.
"We will be conducting a trial for every personnel of the base! During this time, the base will be closed! No one is allowed to leave the territory!" That was the last announcement before he turned around, heading into the base.
Tang Shaoyang thought he could have a few days of a break after coming back, but now he had to clean the mess. He just took three steps, he noticed a woman standing in front of him.
The woman was Cao Jingyi, she just returned but she witnessed the execution as soon as he returned.
"What\'s the meaning of this?" The woman questioned him with a firm tone.
"It is what it is, an execution!" Tang Shaoyang shrugged, "I am going to have a quick shower, and we will have a long talk in the meeting room in fifteen minutes. Get ready!"
He tried to walk past her, but she blocked him, "Do you have to execute him? He is young, 21 years old, he deserves a second chance for what he has done for the base."
"What has he done to the base? Are you…" Tang Shaoyang massaged the space between his eyes, "Nah, that\'s my fault. I chose the wrong person to replace me for a temporary leader!"
"So tell me, does he deserve a second chance after he tried to kill me? Does he deserve a second after plotting to take over the base for his benefit?" Tang Shaoyang questioned Cao Jingyi back.
The latter was shocked to hear those two questions. She did not know that Jin Fan would try to kill Tang Shaoyang. She was not expecting that Jin Fang was plotting to take over the base.
"If not for Wei Xi, you might not survive in this new world. You are too soft in the world where constitutional law does not exist!" After saying that, he left Cao Jingyi behind.
