Chapter 774: Way of the Heroes

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

It might’ve been tumultuous outside, yet some people still went out and passed by. The four middle-aged men in the street corner were not the only onlookers who watched the slaughter scene, so were the others who hid and also watched the one-sided massacre in horror.

It was currently an era of peace and Mist Source Island rarely had a homicide case. Yet currently, an unimaginable massacre where dozens of people were being killed was occurring.

But suddenly, one of the two killers stood proudly in front of the Huimin Supermarket. His eyes glanced at the onlookers in the distance and he shouted in a heavy tone, “They deserve to die for committing crimes against public safety. The Mist Source Island is under the threat of the Darkening Virus, yet some people are deliberately creating chaos with their arsons, killings, and lootings. Such people must pay a grievous price. Neither the government nor the police has the ability to deal with the virus as they are too busy with other matters. In any case, we will become both the law enforcer and the judge on their behalf. Thus, we’ll punish those who commit crimes against public safety!”

Vigilantes replacing the government?

The frightened onlookers were instantly in astonishment.

They perfectly realized that public order was currently at its lowest point since members of the police force were infected by the virus and were unable to maintain the peace. The public law and order was something that directly affected the common people like themselves.

Suddenly, everyone’s hearts started calming down and those who were about to flee decided against it. Those who had the ability to fight were quietly approaching from every direction to look at two god-like… heroes.

Exactly. In their mind, they all called these two men heroes.

The tall and burly man who stood in front of the Huimin supermarket looked around. He could see that the spectators had a change in their expressions. He then continued speaking with a clear voice, “Divine Doctor Gui Jianchou has come from the mainland. He is putting his all into researching the antidote for the Darkening virus. We are hopeful that a good result will appear from his work by tomorrow or in a few days, so I hope everyone can pass this message along and that we can overcome this virus outbreak as soon as possible !”

Having said that, he beckoned to the four middle-aged men and loudly asked, “How are your bodies? Ask these friends around if you have any shallow injuries and help with disposing the dead bodies. Remember to move the bodies to the crematorium to prevent further breakout of the virus.”

“We’re all right.”

The four middle-aged men were all scarred and bruised—and even one them was in a serious condition—but they persevered enough to support themselves and walked step by step. It was needless to say, but they knew that the emergence of these two men had saved their lives; they were their savior.

“Alright. We’ll go first since we need to inspect other areas as well.”

The two burly men cupped their fists and quickly returned to the car, started it, and sped away.

Python City.

Wu Li dragged her tired body, carrying food she had just purchased from the supermarket. She crept along the path toward her house that was about a few hundred meters away. She was also infected by the Darkening virus and was in a very serious state. Even though the static electricity curbed the spreading of Darkening virus, it was still tormenting her day and night, sapping the strength from her body.

She was a single parent—a mother of a six-year-old daughter. Although she had a decently-paid job and was able to hire a nanny, the nanny had left, leaving only herself to take care of her daughter.

“Bahaha, we’ve got something hot here!”

Two drunkards dressed in suits and with neatly combed hair appeared. Their appearance looked like they should be executives of a company, if not owners of companies, yet their laugh, obscenity, and dirty thoughts revealed their true selves when they saw the pretty Wu Li.

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

Wu Li’s expression quickly changed as the two men blocked her path. She had heard that the entirety of Python City had fallen into chaos recently, even hearing that there had been many murders.

One of the men touched his chin, grinning as he plunged toward Wu Li, grabbing her and forcing himself on her to kiss her.

Slap!

Although Wu Li didn’t have much strength left and she was unable to follow the man’s speed, it didn’t take much effort for her to slap the man. Unfortunately, she had no power to get rid of the man’s arm with her limited strength.

“YOU DARE SLAP ME, FUCKING BITCH!!”

The man released Wu Li and punched her in the face, sending her to slump on the ground, yet he continued to kick and punch.

“Old Zhou, don’t break her! We, brothers, still need to have this meat to vent up our urge today!” The other man stopped him and forcefully dragged Wu Li up.

Wu Li shouted for help, enduring the pain all over her body. There were many people who passed by her, at least a dozen of them within a radius of 200 meters; yet, nobody came to help her. All of them just minded their own businesses, showing their indifferent attitude.

Creak…

A car stopped and parked nearby. A burly man dashed out and directly stabbed the two men’s hearts.

“AAAAAH…”
