CHAPTER 975: CHAPTER 229: A KILLING BORN OF A CRYSTAL (PART 5)
Wang Yonglong’s eye sockets split open, blood gushed from his mouth, and his back slid down the wall, collapsing powerlessly to the ground.
Zhou Yang bent down, grabbing the other’s ankle, and like a butcher on a rainy night, dragged the body to the distant slaughterhouse.
Passing by cell after cell.
His heavy footsteps reached the ears of all the sleeping prisoners.
Clang!
Prisoners in cell after cell rose from their beds.
Wearing only underwear, they stood straight and in rows.
"Good evening, Warden."
"Thank you for your hard work, Warden."
Those imprisoned here had all killed someone, some even more than one, and there were quite a few Awakeners among them.
But now...
Hearing the footsteps, they scrambled out of bed in fear.
This was enough to show how much esteem Warden Zhou Yang held in their hearts.
"Sleep."
Zhou Yang said.
"Yes, Warden."
Not a sound could be heard.
The prisoners swiftly lay back on their iron beds, tucked themselves in, closed their eyes, and lay still as they fell asleep.
They naturally saw the guy being dragged by the Warden.
But they had no thoughts.
If they had to say something, it would be two words.
’Stupid!’
...
The last cell at the end of the corridor.
It housed four prisoners.
They were all Awakeners.
One-eyed man, Fat man, Skeleton man, Bald man.
When they first arrived at the prison, they were quite fierce, but under the persuasion of Zhou Yang and Gao Bo, each came to profoundly understand their crimes, and thus reformed themselves, fully cooperating with prison rules, honestly reforming in hopes of leniency and early release to start anew.
Footsteps approached.
The four, already asleep with their eyes closed, heard the approaching footsteps.
They suddenly opened their eyes.
Clang!
In a unified and rapid manner, they stood side by side, quietly waiting.
When they saw the distinctive tips of the Warden’s shoes appear.
"Good, Warden."
They said in unison.
Zhou Yang nodded in satisfaction, opened the cell door, even though it was just him, they still dared not misbehave. No... why misbehave, we have been baptized by positive energy.
"He is a new criminal, a murderer, personally delivered by Brother Lin. He ambushed me halfway, hand him over to you for proper discipline; if the outcome isn’t satisfactory, you know the consequences."
Zhou Yang tossed Wang Yonglong in.
"Yes, rest assured Warden, we will definitely carry out the indoctrination of positive moral values."
Again, they spoke in unison.
The twelve-year-old, who had previously cruelly killed many and liked to pretend to be pitiable, had been well-educated by them and recited the words from legal programs in his sleep every night.
Zhou Yang was very satisfied, turned, and left.
With his departure.
For the four reformed fierce criminals, the darkness in front of them quietly dissipated, and light once again enveloped them.
Looking down at the newly arrived conscious guy.
They chuckled...
"Shall I go first?"
"Let me go first?"
"Or should I go first?"
"How about together?"
"Okay."
Then the four of them surrounded Wang Yonglong, extending their terrifying claws in Wang Yonglong’s eyes.
Wang Yonglong wanted to say something.
Maybe it’s fear that engulfed him, causing him to momentarily become mute, unable to make a sound.
...
Room 704.
Lin Fan continued writing content.
[Monsters formed by the fusion of unknown human genes and zombie genes]
That’s the only way to describe them.
No suitable term has been found.
Detailing some of their abilities.
Rebirth of severed limbs.
Tremendous strength.
Incredible speed.
Possessabilities of most high-level zombies.
The extreme mutation of genes is also clearly documented, turning into a non-human existence, completely devoid of rationality, reduced to a terrifying creature that only knows to devour all life around it.
Most importantly, the photos.
The future ones may vary, but at least there’s a sample.
"Alas, when someone uses zombies in the disaster as a medium for evolution, what happens will be extraordinarily horrifying; everything will be hard to turn back."
Lin Fan closed the notebook, shook his head, and sighed.
Leaning back against the chair, looking through the balcony at the evening’s nightfall outside.
It truly is something that brings some sorrow.
Lin Fan patted his face.
Gathered his energy.
"No point dwelling on these terrible things anymore, as long as I keep striving, I’ll definitely see everything I wish to see."
In his eyes filled with hope, there was a trace of loneliness.
But such loneliness was hard to detect.
Maybe even he himself only thought of it occasionally.
Never truly contemplated it.
Then he looked at the sleeping Mengmeng.
Smiling.
In Mengmeng, he saw the beauty of the future; now, there are more and more children in the shelter, and they represent a beautiful future. When they grow up, everything will have already returned to the most beautiful times.
Moreover, up until now.
Everything is developing in an orderly manner.
Huang City is already safe.
The surrounding zombies have also been cleared.
Communication restorers are gradually repairing the nearby base stations under the protection of the Awakeners.
These are all transitions from bad to good.
Restoration to complete tranquility may take time, but as long as it’s possible, the length of time doesn’t matter.
