Chapter 838: Deal With Lu Tong
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lin Wenwen believed that Lu Tong deserved a heavier punishment. However, it was Yuan Tianxing’s decision to make, and not hers. Nevertheless, it would be really hard for Lu Tong to survive the world of zombies, as he was only a s.p.a.ce possessor.
Yuan Tianxing, of course, didn’t plan to let him live. Without the base’s protection, Lu Tong had no chance to keep himself from being torn into pieces and eaten by zombies on his own.
His decision was like a death penalty for Lu Tong. If the latter was lucky enough, he might be saved by some zombie hunters. However, the hunters near All Beings Base were all from the base. Even if they saved him, they wouldn’t be able to bring him back into the base. The only way to save him for good was to send him to Sea City Base.
That kind of chance was too small to be counted on.
So, judging by that result, Lu Tong had already gotten the punishment that he deserved. After all, what he did didn’t hurt Yuan Tianxing or anyone else for real.
Even though Yuan Tianxing nearly fell into his trap, Lu Tong was only trying to benefit himself, and not hurt Yuan Tianxing.
While walking, Yuan Tianxing abruptly stopped, then turned to Lin Wenwen with questioning eyes and asked, “Why did you suddenly show up here? Have you known what he was up to?”
Had Lin Wenwen been watching him walk step and step into Lu Tong’s trap? Lu Tong was pretty bold though. He had the guts to entrap him, and nearly succeeded!
Lin Wenwen paused briefly upon making an eye-contact with Yuan Tianxing. Then, she hurriedly turned her eyes away and said, “Eh-hem… um, yeah, I know what he did. I didn’t tell you because I wanted to know which step he could achieve at last.”
While speaking, she carefully glanced at Yuan Tianxing from the corners of her eyes. As the latter wore no expression, she felt a little uneasy.
Lin Wenwen didn’t tell Yuan Tianxing about Lu Tong’s plan because Lu Tong hadn’t caused any serious results yet, and also because she wanted to follow Lin Qiao’s suggestion and see if things would go exactly the same way as she had foreseen. The result proved that what she saw was indeed what would happen in the future.
So… the metal vine was real, wasn’t it? But, what on earth triggered her new power? Was it a very realistic dream that woke up her new superpower?
Lin Wenwen still had many other questions. However, she was now sure that she was able to see some things that would happen in the future.
Thinking of the image that she saw of Lin Qiao giving birth, she relaxed a little.
Yuan Tianxing spent a few seconds looking at her, then turned and kept walking without saying anything.
Behind them, Lu Tong was dragged downstairs by Lu Junjie and the others and thrown onto a car, which drove toward the outside.
“No… You can’t throw me out… I have a s.p.a.ce! I’ll be very helpful… Please don’t throw me out!” As he was put inside the car, Lu Tong finally came back to his senses and immediately started struggling and begging.
“You are pretty bold! You actually tried to entrap our Deputy Chief. You acted so weak and vulnerable, but turned out to be such an evil person!” Xing Le sat by his side. He and Xiao Wenxing each put a hand on Lu Tong’s shoulders to disable him from moving.
“It’s not like that… I was just… I was…” Lu Tong tried to explain, but didn’t know how. Everything that he had done was dug out, so nothing would change no matter what he said.
“You’re quite capable though. Our Deputy Chief really believed you. I’m impressed!” Lu Junjie said coldly from the front seat, “You’re lucky that we’re only going to throw you out of the base.”
Soon, the car was driven out of the base entrance, then moved forward for two miles to reach to the zombie wall.
The zombies sensed the scent of Lin Qiao’s blood from the car and moved away from the road when the car was still at a distance away.
As the car went out, a zombie flashed out of the crowd and curiously followed behind it. He saw the car stop about ten miles away, then a man whose limbs were tied together being thrown out. After that, the car door was closed.
As Lu Junjie and his people prepared to drive back, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and landed before their car.
“Eh?” Lu Junjie and the driver both paused briefly with surprise. But then, they recognized the zombie standing before their car. That was a zombie leader under their Chief’s command. In fact, that zombie had become a zombie king recently.
Knowing that the zombie was on their side, Lu Junjie and his people became less nervous. They got out of the car with confusion.
They didn’t know why the zombie king suddenly showed up.
Zombie number three folded his arms before his chest, then raised a hand and put his fingers on his chin while curiously looking at Lu Tong, who was struggling on the ground, trying to stand up. As Lu Junjie got off the car, the zombie immediately raised his head to look at him.
The questioning look in his eyes was blocked by his sungla.s.ses.
Lu Junjie guessed out the zombie’s meaning, so he explained, “He has been kicked out of the base. Don’t let him into the base ever again.”
“What did he do?” The middle-aged male zombie asked a question, his voice deep and hoa.r.s.e.
That voice of his did not sound like that of a human being. It was deep, very m.u.f.fled, and rather unpleasant to hear.
“He tried to entrap Deputy Chief Yuan. Deputy Chief ordered us to throw him out,” Lu Junjie endured the zombie’s unpleasant voice and said expressionlessly.
‘He’s kicked out of the base, so the base doesn’t want him anymore. So… we can eat him, right?’
Zombie number three wondered while scratching his own chin. Then, he nodded at Lu Junjie and waved at him, signaling for them to leave.
Lu Junjie quickly got back into the car. The driver turned the car around and headed back toward the base.
“Help me! I’ll do anything!” At that moment, Lu Tong finally struggled up from the ground. Seeing the deserted city and streets around him, he immediately let fear occupy his heart.
He was so frightened, feeling as if a group of zombies would show up suddenly and pounce on him from all directions. His hands and feet were still tied. He couldn’t even try to save himself.
He didn’t know that the man in sungla.s.ses was actually not a human being. The man’s voice sounded so strange that Lu Tong even guessed that maybe his throat was broken. However, as he was able to talk, Lu Tong believed that he was human.
Therefore, he instinctively begged that man for help.
Before his voice faded, he saw the man coldly turned up his pale lips. Then, he opened his mouth. He wasn’t going to talk to Lu Tong though.
“Roar…” A zombie roar escaped his mouth.
Lu Tong popped his eyes and looked at the zombie in shock. But, before he could react, a few more zombies darted swiftly at him.
He saw those ‘people’s’ purely dark, cold eyes, hunched backs, and sharp and long nails. Before he could feel despair, he lost his eyesight and then he was violently pressed down to the ground.
“Roar!”
