Chapter 156: Crafting the puppet
This was the place where the new district base got rid of their corpses.
Each day, people from the base would toss the dead here. As this funnel shaped pool was built on a high platform and was also sealed within a firm vehicle, so one didn’t need to worry about mutated life forms finding it. One could continue tossing corpses into it.
In the apocalypse, it was common to have a place to deal with bodies. What Ye Zhongming didn’t expect was for there to be so many corpses here!
On a rough count, there were at least two thousand corpses here!
How many people died yesterday? The new base was built just a few days ago and so many people died?
This caused Ye Zhongming to recall the fear and hatred that the survivors of the base had towards the evolved.
Ye Zhongming placed a few lamps around the vehicle to light up the area. He looked around and saw an empty water pool that was suitable to act as a blood pond.
He dragged two mutated cows beside the pool and sliced their necks. The thick smell of
blood spread in the sky.
“You… What do you want to do?”
Yang Shilong whose hands were broken and was brought here trembled. When he looked at what this young man did, he couldn’t help but feel fear.
Yang Shilong thought that he was lucky. From university to work and until he evolved it was like that. He was even able to survive that terrifying blade light.
But that feeling ended today. He met this guy, the guy that used the blade that night.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was unable to fight back at all. Under all the pressure he had to say everything he knew. That included the gun, that vehicle and also this location. But Yang Shilong felt like this guy didn’t plan to let him go.
He felt even more terrified when he looked towards the guy releasing blood into the pool. He didn’t know whether or not it was getting ready for him.
“I just picked up a skill.” Ye Zhongming calculated the amount of blood. The Basic Puppet Technique needed 500 kilograms of blood.”
“You also know that I just learned it so I am not too familiar. I need to practice a little.”
Ye Zhongming’s words were really calm but to Yang Shilong, it felt like thunder. It caused his body to shake and even his lips turned purple.
He didn’t know what the skill was but he had a corpse pit on his left and a blood pool on his right. Even a fool would know that the skill wouldn’t be a good one.
“Can you, let, let me go? In the future I will be your dog, I will, be loyal towards you…” Yang Shilong hated himself for not learning many languages. He felt like he didn’t know any better phrases to show his loyalty.
“Ask the smelly corpses here if they are willing to forgive you.”
Ye Zhongming tossed the two dead cows to the side and the blood pool was basically done.
“Your turn.” Ye Zhongming gave a devilish smile to Yang Shilong. He cried out in terror and wanted to flee but in front of the two star Ye Zhongming, his struggles were useless.
His limbs were all broken. He lay on the ground and cried out in pain, instinctively he cried out for his mother.
Ye Zhongming clenched his fist in disdain.
Puppet Technique needed a guy that was about to die. Using this Yang Shilong as a material was putting this scum to use.
En?
Ye Zhongming didn’t punch him. He just moved a little and jumped into the pit.
He was able to pick up some movement from this place.
He glanced across the rotting bodies and found the source of that sound.
A few seconds later, he found it.
This corpse was a little obvious.
It was at the top of the pit and so it was most recent. It was naked and although none of its skin was perfect, one could still see that it was a girl.
Ye Zhongming thought about it. He held his breath and jumped in.
He flipped this female body and was stunned. With his perfect memory, he recognised this person.
It was the girl that was taken away by Yang Shilong and his friend from the market!
Although he guessed what would happen to her but when he saw the bruises on her body as well as the numerous bloody holes and deep cuts on her private areas, he was furious.
You could kill someone but don’t torture them.
Ye Zhongming killed people too but he wouldn’t torture them. This wasn’t a sign of strength but a perverted act to bully the weak.
Her eyes were opened wide and her breathing got weaker as she would die at any moment. What Ye Zhongming felt weird was that she was still conscious. She felt like someone had come to her side and she actually turned her eyes towards Ye Zhongming.
But Ye Zhongming who had seen many dead people knew that it was useless even if Park Xiuying used Cleansing Dew on her. Her body and organs were about to collapse and she was definitely dead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe moved her fingers which Ye Zhongming saw. He thought about it and carried her out from the pit.
When she saw Yang Shilong in pain on the ground, her eyes lit up. The hatred was something that even shocked Ye Zhongming.
This hatred was like when one hated someone to the bone and wanted to eat their flesh.
Seeing those wounds on her body, Ye Zhongming understood what she felt.
“I need a person that is about to die to complete a skill.”
Ye Zhongming said to her, “I don’t know what would happen to you, but at least, you would use another method to stay alive. You have much more rights to do that as compared to him.”
She rolled her eyes. Who knew if she could understand Ye Zhongming’s words.
He placed the woman into the blood pond and took out 3 liters of zombie virus from the space crystal to inject into her veins.
After which, he tossed five level two crystals into the pond and also a one star potion to pour into her mouth. He then activated the skill.
His mental energy that was not full was sucked dry. The blood pond also started to rumble like there was a fire beneath which caused the whole pond to boil.
Her body slowly sunk into the bond. The level two crystals also sunk down. Black energy seeped out from the crystals and wrapped around her body like many chains.
Shortly after, white light was released from her body. Even when she sunk into the pond it still didn’t hide this light. The entire pond turned a little translucent, even lighting up half of the vehicle.
The woman did some weird movements and slowly she started to spin. It wasn’t quick but it was rhythmic. The blood turned into a whirlpool.
Ye Zhongming noticed that the blood was reducing. The five crystals were gone too and turned into black chains that wrapped around her body, turning into mysterious patterns.
Whirlpool, blood, woman, turned into a terrifying scene…
