If it was a normal person, they would have already been robbed by that petite figure. However, Yue Zhong was a terrifying expert with a speed that was 10 times that of a normal person. He easily grabbed onto that slender arm and said coldly: "What are you trying to do?"
Yue Zhong looked towards the petite figure that he had grabbed. That person was a child with a face that was black and covered in dust. Her hair was messy and messy, and there was even a lot of mud on it. Her long hair covered her face, and she was wearing a tattered t-shirt.
Yue Zhong frowned: "Thief?"
The child saw Yue Zhong grabbing her right hand, and her eyes flashed with fear, as she struggled and screamed: "Ah!!! Let go of me!! I'm not a thief!! I'm not a thief!!! "
As the child screamed and struggled, Wei Ningguo directly pulled out a gun and pressed it against the child's head, ordering coldly in Chinese: "Shut up! Then be quiet and wait for Boss Yue's orders! Otherwise, I'll blow your head off. "
After the apocalypse, human lives were as cheap as ants. Regardless if it was the elderly, women or children, as long as they angered the experts, they would be killed. Within Wuyan Hong's troops, there were even perverts who loved to torture and kill children.
Wei Ningguo was from the Wolf Fang Battalion, and had taken many lives on his hands. He had no qualms about killing people, even children were no exception.
The child looked at the gun that Wei Ningguo had pressed against her head, and her eyes were filled with fear, not daring to move or speak. She was also a child who had seen the cruelty of the apocalypse. She was extremely clear that some people had gone crazy from killing, and if she was not careful, she could become a corpse.
"What happened?" Following a magnetic voice, Shu Tianya, Zhang Shuwen and Hu Yan walked over. The owner of the voice was precisely the beautiful Shu Tianya.
Yue Zhong pointed to the dirty beggar and said to Shu Tianya: "Miss Shu! How are you guys! I don't know how your Chinese Association deals with thieves. This little fellow tried to steal from me, and was caught red-handed by me. "
Shu Tianya's eyes narrowed, as she asked the beggar with an oppressive tone: "Is what he said true? Did you really steal from him? "
The little beggar hesitated for a while before replying, "Yes!!"
Shu Tianya slightly sighed, looked at Yue with a somewhat complicated look and said: "Yue, if a thief is caught here, you will be punished. You can kill the thief on the spot. Or take him as a slave. However, once you take him as a slave, his food will be handed over to you. Whatever happens after this will have nothing to do with our Chinese Association. "
Yue Zhong frowned and thought: "Slaves!! Is this how the punishment is done here? "
Currently, in this post-apocalyptic world, the majority of the forces were very strict on theft, robbery and other crimes. If they were caught doing such things during the war, they would be killed on the spot. If they were caught during normal times, Yue Zhong's way of dealing with them would be to throw them into the Scum Battalion, and let them fight to the death, or accumulate enough merits to become a commoner again. The way to deal with it here was to demote people to slaves, and their lives were in the hands of their masters.
Even in the Chinese Association, the punishments were severe. After all, without severe punishment, there was no way to suppress the heart of the apocalypse that was already on the verge of collapse.
Yue Zhong frowned as he looked at the little rascal, as if he was looking at a burden. Without the support of a large faction, bringing a kid along in this post-apocalyptic world would only be a burden. Unless the kid was an Agility-based Evolver like Yao Yao.
The kid looked at Yue Zhong who was frowning and immediately knelt on the ground, hugging Yue Zhong's leg as he pleaded: "Don't kill me!! I beg you!! Uncle!! I'm willing to be your slave. Don't kill me!! "
Yue Zhong looked at the little rascal hugging his leg, and waved his hands at Wei Ningguo: "Fine!! I'll take you as my slave! From today onwards, you're mine. "
Wei Ningguo took off his backpack upon receiving the order, and pulled out a piece of cake and a bottle of milk, handing it to the little rascal.
The moment the kid received the cake and milk, he tore open the packaging without hesitation, and started gobbling them up. The cake and milk were considered luxuries after the apocalypse, and if one wasn't careful, they would be snatched away.
The surrounding Chinese Association kids saw how this kid actually ate cake and drank milk after becoming Yue Zhong's slave. Everyone's eyes turned red, and they wanted to eat the cake and drink the milk too.
The kids who were strolling around immediately started to crowd around Yue Zhong.
Yue Zhong looked at the kids, and smiled at Shu Tianya: "Miss Shu!! I'll leave these fellows to you! "
Shu Tianya's eyes flashed with a strange glint, as she smiled sweetly at Yue Zhong: "Yue Zhong. You calling me Miss Shu, it's too formal. Just call me Tian Ya, unless you don't treat me as a friend. "
Yue Zhong chuckled: "Tian Ya!! I'll leave these fellows to you! "
Hearing Yue Zhong call Shu Tianya Tian Ya, Zhang Shuwen and Hu Yan who were following behind Shu Tianya had a look of jealousy in their eyes. The 2 of them were chasing after Shu Tianya, and they were extremely clear that only those that Shu Tianya liked would be allowed to call her by her name. It was obvious that Shu Tianya looked up to Yue Zhong, and this caused them to be jealous.
Shu Tianya revealed a radiant smile, and a glint flashed in her eyes as she looked at Zhang Shuwen and said: "Shuwen!"
Zhang Shuwen immediately pulled out a handgun, and pointed it at the kids, as he barked out fiercely: "All of you, go back! Don't get any weird ideas. Be careful not to lose your life. "
When the kids were yelled at by Zhang Shuwen, their faces were filled with fear, and they scattered in all directions.
Hu Yan took a step forward and came in front of Yue Zhong, his eyes filled with battle intent, as he issued a challenge: "Yue Zhong!! I heard that you're really strong. Can you spar with me?! "
Yue Zhong's ability to control Mutant Beasts was strong. This was the consensus of everyone in the Chinese Association. However, no one was perfect, if a person was strong in a certain aspect, then he would also have a weak side. Hu Yan acknowledged Yue Zhong's ability to control Mutant Beasts, but to challenge Yue Zhong alone, he had no fear.
Yue Zhong lightly shook his head and rejected Hu Yan's suggestion: "Brother Hu! I'm sorry, I'm not interested in such meaningless sparring. Go find someone else to spar with. "
Hu Yan's eyes blazed as he continued to speak in an overbearing manner: "Are you afraid? Yue Zhong!! I know that your ability to control Mutant Beasts is strong. I'm also grateful that you brought them to save us. However, a true expert would never run from a challenge!! Let's have a fair fight!! Don't worry, I, Hu Yan, am an upright person, as long as you feel that you can't beat me, immediately admit defeat, and I will stop. I will definitely not kick you when you're down! "
Although Hu Yan was grateful to Yue Zhong for saving them with the Mutant Beasts. However, he wanted to show off in front of his sweetheart, Shu Tianya, and prove that he, Hu Yan, was definitely more outstanding than Yue Zhong. Yue Zhong was just lucky, and had the ability to control Mutant Beasts.
Yue Zhong laughed indifferently, as he replied indifferently: "Then I'll admit defeat! You win! Brother Hu!! "
Yue Zhong really did not want to waste any energy in such a meaningless fight.
When Hu Yan heard Yue Zhong's rejection, his face turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly, his veins popping out, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
When Shu Tianya heard Yue Zhong's rejection, her beautiful eyes revealed a look of disappointment. She was filled with curiosity towards this Yue Zhong who could control over a hundred Mutant Beasts, and had been praised to the skies by Zheng Qiang. Now that Yue Zhong had rejected her, she could not help but feel disappointed.
Zhang Shuwen came out and eyed Yue Zhong, before saying softly: "Yue Zhong! You just said that you don't want to have a fight without a prize. How about this! As long as you can defeat Hu Yan, then Hu Yan and I will listen to your commands for a month. If you lose, then the rations provided by the Chinese Association will be reduced from 300 tonnes to 200 tonnes, what do you think? "
Zhang Shuwen was smarter than Hu Yan, and he quickly saw through Yue Zhong's unwillingness to fight. He proposed a proposal that could move Yue Zhong.
Zhang Shuwen and Hu Yan were both Enhancers above Level 30, and had experienced countless battles. Their strength was not ordinary. Yue Zhong could do many things if he obtained the authority to command them for a month.
Yue Zhong pondered a while before replying: "Fine!! I agree! Brother Hu, do you agree to this proposal? "
Hu Yan confidently proposed a condition: "I agree!! However, you can't use those Mutant Beasts. If you use them, I won't be a match for the Type 2 Mutant Leopard Cat. "
Yue Zhong replied in a low voice: "No problem!! I won't use Mutant Beasts. "
Hu Yan replied: "Good! Let's go!! "
Yue Zhong followed Hu Yan and the rest towards the battle arena that was specially used for sparring.
This battle arena was specially used for the experts of the Chinese Association to spar with each other. Many of the experts of the Chinese Association would come here to spar, to continuously improve their combat skills, and to develop new battle techniques.
The news of the duel between Yue Zhong and Hu Yan quickly spread throughout the small gathering grounds, and all the experts of the Chinese Association gathered in the fighting arena to watch the battle.
Shu Wenyan looked at Yue Zhong and Hu Yan, as he asked Wang Xingchun who was beside him: "Xingchun, who do you think will win this battle?"
Wang Xingchun looked at Yue Zhong and Hu Yan, and his eyes narrowed as he replied in a low voice: "Hu Yan!! If Yue Zhong doesn't use Mutant Beasts! On this battle arena, he won't be Hu Yan's match. "
Hu Yan's level was 38, and he was the 4th strongest expert in the Chinese Association, just below Shu Wenyan, Wang Xingchun and Chu Hu. He had close combat skills, and they had already been enhanced to Level 3. On this battle arena, if he wasn't careful, Shu Wenyan might lose to Hu Yan. (To be continued.
