Zhang ShengLi used the iron chains to tightly bound the white-coat sponsor’s body, then took out an extremely sharp blade and left two cuts on the sponsor’s flesh to draw blood. Shortly after, the cloth in his mouth was removed as the sponsor was thrown into the river behind the yacht.

“Ah? No need to do it like this…” Wang DeCheng said while watching Zhang ShengLi. Deep within Wang DeCheng’s heart, he felt conflicted. He didn’t like the idea of using a person as live bait, if he’d wanted the person dead then it would be easier to kill him. This method was too ruthless for him, but since it had been Elder Liu’s decision, Wang DeCheng couldn’t voice his opposition.

As other bystanders watched the scene play out, they all had similar feelings and thoughtslike Wang DeCheng, but they didn’t speak up. The other members weren’t able to interfere with the things core members of the group were doing to the sponsor.

The white-coat sponsor had committed multiple evil deeds, so the outcome of his fate was now in the hands of others. It was deemed that this punishment fit the crime.

As the yacht continued downriver, the white-coat sponsor was being dragged in the back between a constant mix of crying and calling for help. After being drowned by the river water, the white-coat sponsor passed out and the noises coming from him stopped.

After half an hour later, Liu Gan and a few members were disappointed that they hadn’t been able to bait in a large prey. The prey they were looking for was an extremely ugly Variant Zombie that had a mouthful of protruding sharp teeth, which had suddenly happened to have appeared tailing behind the yacht. It swam up to the white-coat sponsor, opened its mouth and took large bite out of the sponsor.

After swallowing, the Mutant Fish Variant seemed to have discovered something was wrong. However, it was already too late as the iron hook was deeply embedded into the Variant Zombie’s stomach. So it wouldn’t be easy for it to regurgitate the large chunk of human meat it had swallowed.

As a result, the Mutant Fish Variant started to struggle ferociously. This was within Liu Gan’s predictions. There were as many as four iron chains bundled up, so this Variant Zombie wasn’t able to struggle free from the fish chain.

This Mutant Fish Variant discovered that it couldn't free itself from the hook, so its other option was to charge forward and attack the yacht. The rear end of the yacht now had dents, but there weren’t any debilitating structural damage to the yacht due to its large size, it still remained afloat. Nevertheless, the immense strength of a Variant Zombie should not be underestimated as it tugged at the chains from the rear of the yacht, throwing the balance of the yacht off and causing the yacht to shake and tilt from one side to another from time to time.

The yacht was steadily flowing downriver tugging along the Mutant Fish Variant for more than half an hour. Soon the yacht would be able to leave the urban district, as both sides of the shoreline had a gradual decrease in the numbers of wandering zombies. The fuel in the yacht was nearly used up, so Liu Gan found an appropriate location to dock. As the yacht was angled toward the shoreline, right before it was about to reach the shore, the yacht did a quick spinout. The sudden turn used centripetal force to throw the Mutant Fish Variant from the rear of the yacht onto the shore.

The Mutant Fish Variant had been dragged along for more than half an hour so it had already been completely exhausted. However, with the sudden force that tossed it onto the shore, it struggled for its life, trying to return to the river. Liu Gan, Yin He, Zhang ShengLi, and Wang DeCheng were already on the banks of the shore and they all blocked off the possible escape routes of the Mutant Fish Variant. Liu Gan used the [Carapace Shield] to block off retaliating attacks from the Mutant Fish Variant, as the other three continuously attacked the body of the Variant.

No matter how ferocious a fish is in the water, when it is on land, it will eventually die. However, the Variant Zombie would die even faster due to the attacks it received from the four players, who were at or past level 5. After a few minutes, Han GuangMing was summoned from the yacht to land the finishing blow on the Mutant Fish Variant.
