Chapter 228: – Better to Kill the Wrong than Let Go_2
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
But Zi Liyuan didn’t care about these things now. The reason he had come alone to take on this Heretical Sect stronghold was to monopolize their resources.
A kind of resource that even he coveted, capable of making his foundation of strength even more powerful, ensuring a more certain success in the Lord Level class change task for Fourth Order!
“I accuse…”
“I correct…”
“She, she too is a member of the Heretical Sect…”
“This Kun Ye is a member of the Heretical Sect, every time after selling Fasting, she threatens me, saying if I don’t pay more, she’ll kill me…”
(⊙o⊙)…
An eerie silence suddenly fell over the scene.
Lord Zi, with dead fish eyes, stared at the woman who last caused the awkward silence.
Hmm, her appearance was somewhat sketchy and incomplete, no wonder extra payment was demanded from a Kun Ye.
But is it really okay to do such a thing, to correct others?
Apart from the Ridgeback Tortoise, which remained at Zi Liyuan’s side, Lao Tie and the Spider Queen stepped forward as well.
Some of those accused and corrected instantly began to resist, hurling various skills towards Zi Liyuan in the arena.
At the same time, all self-preservation skills were activated in an attempt to flee.
Unfortunately, the area was surrounded by Undead creatures, and even though they were incredibly strong, killing many Skeleton Warriors and Zombies, they still couldn’t break through the encirclement of the Undead army.
Those who resisted, of course, deserved death, especially since the [Array Plate Suppressor] was something Heretical Sect members specifically designed to free themselves from the rules of the Boundary Mist City Formation.
Looking at the Heretical Sect members, decapitated one after another, and then at those who were called out but didn’t resist at all.
Zi Liyuan casually controlled a few Vampires, dragging out one by one those who were corrected and didn’t resist.
“So you don’t resist because you’ve accepted your fate?”
Lord Zi’s eyes, still filled with murderous intent, asked seemingly at random, but the surrounding BOSSes radiated bloodthirstiness with ill intent.
“Wuuu… My lord, I am innocent, I am willing to undergo any kind of interrogation and investigation.”
The Kun Ye who had just been called out was kneeling on the ground, crying pitifully.
(⊙o⊙)…
A trace of surprise appeared in Lord Zi’s eyes, previously filled with murderous intent.
“In that case, share the view of your Spatial Belts and Spatial Backpacks.”
Whether they had [Array Plate Suppressors], one look would suffice to know.
The Hammer Boxing Gym employees who had this item were definitely members of the Heretical Sect.
If they didn’t have this item, although it’s possible they were still Heretical Sect members, it couldn’t be determined with one hundred percent certainty.
Moreover, these were people who were corrected and accused, and so they needed to undergo strict interrogation.
If indeed innocent, there would naturally be compensation and release.
If they were indeed Heretical Sect members, they would either be imprisoned or executed.
With a single order from Zi Liyuan, out of the dozens accused who did not resist, four of them did not hesitate to open their Spatial Belts and Spatial Backpacks for Zi Liyuan to view.
A scan of their eyes revealed the contents of their Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts at a glance.
All four did not possess the [Array Plate Suppressor], nor did they have items to evade the rules of Boundary Mist City.
“Take these four away, and hand them over to the military for interrogation later.”
These four clearly breathed a sigh of relief and allowed four Vampires to escort them to the side.
The remaining eleven, however, hesitated and did not open the shared view of their Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts.
Lao Tie, the Spider Queen, and the Demon Spiders nearby, each rubbing the weapons in their hands, were eager to strike, prepared to take a few heads.
“My lord, I was only fooled into joining a few days ago. Please show mercy, and inquire into the matter!”
Two more people crawled and tumbled to the floor, crying and pleading their case.
He also shared access to the Spatial Belt and the Spatial Backpack for inspection.
He didn’t find the [Formation Suppressor] but there was a scroll that could temporarily free one from the suppressive effects of Boundary Mist City’s formation rules for 30 seconds.
“Hand over the ‘Banishment Scroll,’ and then squat quietly over to the side.”
These two were likely telling the truth, and when the time came, handing them over for a military interrogation would suffice, as they were but minor characters.
Most importantly, Zi Liyuan saw that both men were only First Order LV40, not even having completed the Second Order class change quest. In his eyes, they were just like small fries, unworthy of attention.
As for the fear of one of them turning into a main character archetype and rising up to take him down as if he were the big boss.
Tch, too many novels read, not noticing how Lord Zi’s strength was painstakingly achieved.
Do you know, every day, Lady Luck’s long black stocking-clad legs are being rubbed bald by him!
“Die!”
At that moment, eleven fire dragons shot into the sky, aiming straight for the platform where Zi Liyuan was standing.
“Roar!”
With a roar, the old tortoise stepped forward, placing its massive body in front of Zi Liyuan.
The eleven fire dragons collided with the tortoise’s mountain-like body, scorching eleven spots on its shell, before being dispersed into sparks.
Amidst the whooshing of weapons cutting through the air, Lao Tie, the Spider Queen, and the Demon Spiders relentlessly beheaded the rebels with their weapons.
In just a few seconds, these eleven rebels had been decapitated, slain on the spot by the three ferocious bosses.
“One Third Order, the rest Second Order. Why bother? If you hadn’t resisted and handed over the [Formation Suppressor], you might have had a slight chance of survival after being handed over to the military.”
Shaking his head, Lord Zi looked toward the other staff members.
“Anyone else wishing to make an accusation? I’m giving you one more chance. If you miss it, death is the only outcome.”
This time, the intent had always been to kill, especially those powerful cultists.
In Zi Liyuan’s eyes, it was possible to scan the vitality of life, and among these staff members, there were still three whose life force had reached the Third Order.
After waiting five seconds with no further accusations, he spoke again.
“Since there are none, all of you open up your Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts, and share them with me for inspection. If there are no contraband items, you all will just have to wait for the military’s examination.”
Watching each one obediently open their Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts, Zi Liyuan’s spirit mind swept over them.
Unexpectedly, this time there were indeed no items that could prove any of them to be cultists.
“Good, stay here honestly and wait for the military to take over the inspection.”
Nodding, Zi Liyuan mounted the tortoise’s neck and moved to the edge of the audience area.
“All you spectators, likewise open your Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts, and share them with me for inspection, or else you’ll be treated as an accomplice to cultists!”
The indifferent voice carried no emotional tone but was filled with a chilling intent to kill.
Especially Zi Liyuan’s eyes, as they stared at those who had been the most raucous, as if he intended to etch their faces firmly into his memory.
This scene naturally scared these people into bowing their heads, wishing for masks to hide their faces from Lord Zi’s memory.
At the same time, these folks all presented their Spatial Backpacks and Spatial Belts.
They had to comply; this guy was too ruthless, having just killed dozens of people.
They did not wish to become slain spirits under his blade.
After his spirit swept through and found no contraband items in these people’s space, Zi Liyuan patted the tortoise’s head and turned to leave.
Next up was the hard assault into the underground layer.
Through his spirit observation, all the heretical sect members had already assembled and were setting up a certain formation.
“Tch, they don’t know how much strength they will have left once the Sealing Demon Formation is unleashed.”
From the beginning, Zi Liyuan had never planned on a direct confrontation.
He had prepared several auxiliary Array Plates for the Sealing Demon Formation; with those in his possession, he could simply cripple the magic and the cultists wouldn’t be able to unleash much of their strength.
After all, these people were just like lambs to the slaughter, ready to be butchered at his whim.
