Chapter 345: "Old Friend", Unexpected Change - Part 7 (1/2)

”Oh, have these new recruits got their class and talent?” Tang Shaoyang asked Origin. He was thinking of what he should do with the new recruits while Ding Hao and Jin Fan's punishment was final. Death was their punishment for betraying him and trying to kill him.

But those people still had a chance, he wanted to give them a chance to redeem their wrongdoings since they were following these two rats. The reason was that Jin Fan managed to gather hundreds of followers, it would be a pity to kick them all.

He wanted these people to sign the slave contract to redeem their wrongdoings unless they had killed the innocent, they should be punished, death penalty or expulsion, depending on what they had done.

However, the six Tarriors' punishment was fixed. They had read and signed the contract, they should know the consequence of betraying him, death.

Ding!

The elevator opened and he stepped into the lobby. There was a crowd in the lobby, everyone was looking outside. But the moment his elevator door opened, everyone in the lobby was looking in his direction.

He ignored the gazes as he walked out of the lobby. A bigger crowd was outside, he heard screams from many people outside. Wei Xi and the others noticed the Boss's arrival. They gave him a path and he found the source of the scream.

It was Zhang Mengyao who beat people up. He saw twenty people were lying down on the ground, groaning in pain as their face was beaten black and blue. There was even a man with a bloody mouth and cracked lips that he even almost lost all his teeth. She did not plan to stop from the look of it.

He did not stop her either, instead, he asked Kang Xue who was standing next to him, ”What happened?” Zhang Mengyao lost it. She seemed furious at whatever these people did.

Kang Xue told him what pissed her off. How these people looked down on women and called her whore. She thought it was what pissed Zhang Mengyao off.

It was not until the twenty people lost their voice to scream that Tang Shaoyang called her out, ”That's enough, General!”

Everyone looked toward the voice, not because he stopped her but because of the roleplaying. Yes, they thought they were roleplaying, a general of a small base like this? Everyone had heard that this was not a military-based base.

Zhang Mengyao stopped her beating and looked toward Tang Shaoyang. She nodded and went back, these twenty people were groaning in pain, no more damned words came out of their mouth. She stood behind him as the crowd's attention was on Tang Shaoyang.

From how they were standing, people could tell that Tang Shaoyang was the Leader. Of course, everyone had heard the leader's name, Tang Shaoyang. However, they never saw what the base leader looked like.

”Has Zhao Zhong come back?” He looked around to see whether Zhao Zhong had gathered all the Tarriors.

”I don't see him,” Zhang Mengyao shook his head.

”Alright then, I guess I have to say something to clear the confusion within these people,” Tang Shaoyang muttered under his breath as he scanned the crowd. Clearly, the crowd was mistreated, but they did not dare to leave because there was a wall that protected the base from the zombies. In this place, they were safe even though they starved. It was much better than living outside under constant fear of zombies.

”First of all, I will introduce my name!” He said that with a loud voice, ”My name is Tang Shaoyang and I am the Boss of this base.”

People expected this, there was a little surprise from the crowd. However, he could see that most of them had resentful gazes when they looked at him. He could understand where that came from.

”Second, I am sorry for what subordinates did to you guys,” he bowed his head slightly, around 15 - 20 degrees bow maybe before he continued, ”These people have done something disgusting on my back while I am away,” He pulled the crippled Jin Fan, throwing him to the front like trash.

Zhang Mengyao asked Selena to heal the young man so he did not die from blood loss, but he had lost his legs. He grabbed Ding Hao, this guy was still intact with no injuries. So while grabbing the man, he ”accidentally” broke Ding Hao's finger. The man screamed just like a pig about to get slaughtered.

He was not bothered by the scream as he threw the man next to Jin Fan. At this point, the people who just heard the tale of the demonic Boss became even more scared.

”These two are the scums that have scammed all of you. First of all, you don't need to pay any food to enter our territory or become part of our Empire. Second, we will instead provide you shelter, protection, and food. Third, we promise to build a better environment for everyone to live in, and I need your contributions too to realize that!” As soon as he said that, the crowd broke into a commotion. They began cursing and pointing their fingers at the guards, Ding Hao, and Jin Fan.
