As Chang Wei spoke, he pulled out his pistol and cleanly and efficiently killed the man.
Under Yoko Okino's mental probing, all of the man's secrets were exposed.
Therefore, he has all the information that Chang Wei wants to know.
After further investigation, Chang Wei and the others learned that the man in front of them came from a nearby survivor base.
The leader there is named Xiong Jinli, an evolved being who was originally a prisoner.
After the apocalypse broke out, a prison riot occurred, and he seized the opportunity to escape. He gathered a group of desperados and robbed the prison's armory. After escaping from Jiangnan City, they kidnapped other survivors and took them to a nearby village—a rural village—where they seized everything.
However, Xiong Jinli was not satisfied with this. He also sent men to rob people on the road, kidnapping any passing vehicles or survivors. Beautiful women were kept as his personal possessions for the pleasure of his superiors; women of average appearance became objects of pleasure for anyone to vent on at will.
20. Men, on the other hand, were forced to work as laborers, performing heavy physical labor.
In the man's memory, Xiong Jinli was an extremely brutal person.
He would often feed people to zombies, and he was extremely cruel to women who were not well taken care of, even gouging out their eyes and pulling out their tongues, his methods were outrageous.
Even his subordinates dared not disobey him in the slightest.
As for what skills Xiong Jinli possessed, they were not sure, because very few people had ever seen him use them.
After learning this information, everyone was filled with righteous indignation.
Even the usually calm Chang Wei felt a surge of rage, wishing he could tear that beast to pieces immediately.
"This kind of scum doesn't deserve to live!"
Ada Wong growled in a low voice from the side. Although she was somewhat cunning, her bottom line was completely shattered in the face of such cruelty.
"That's right, this beast must be torn to pieces!"
Saya Takagi also spoke with red eyes, her voice filled with anger and grief.
The others also expressed their agreement, and they were all indignant, wishing they could bring Xiong Jinli to justice immediately.
"Miharu, Yoko Okino, come with me. The rest of you stay here."
Chang Wei's voice was cold and firm. Hoshino Ai, who was standing beside him, could vaguely feel a suffocating anger emanating from Chang Wei, an anger that almost suffocated her.
"Zhang Ye, Liu Xin, you two stay here to protect everyone. If any outsiders approach, deal with them immediately without asking any questions."
Chang Wei's order was decisive and resolute, and no one dared to object.
After saying that, before anyone else could react, Yoko Okino nimbly jumped into the driver's seat, drove off the road, and led the way.
Only she knows the mystery of the village where Xiong Jinli is hiding.
Everyone watched their retreating figures silently, hoping that Chang Wei would bring back good news.
The three of them traveled along a winding dirt road in silence, speaking little, but their murderous intent grew stronger.
Twenty minutes later, the car slowly came to a stop. Yoko Okino whispered to Chang Wei:
"We're almost there. Turn left in about a hundred meters and we'll see the village. If we go any further, we might alert them."
Chang Wei nodded in acknowledgment and said to Yoko Okino:
"You wait here, and we'll go there."
After saying that, he and Meiqing got out of the car and ran silently forward.
Following Yoko Okino's directions, the two walked a hundred meters forward, turned left, and indeed saw a small village.
Vehicles gathered at the village entrance, leaving a wide road open.
At the entrance, several men stood guard with guns, most of them looking lazy and chatting with their companions.
Chang Wei observed for a moment and saw that although the village was not large, it had more than a hundred households.
However, most of the young and middle-aged people have gone to work in the city, leaving behind mostly the elderly and children, whose numbers should not be large.
Beside the village were fields and vegetable gardens. In the fields, some thin men were working, while armed men patrolled nearby to prevent them from escaping or stealing.
In the vegetable garden, the vegetables are growing well, and some children are carefully taking care of them.
Even the elderly, Chang Wei saw them sorting grains in the open space, separating the good ones from the moldy ones.
These scenes fueled Chang Wei's anger even more intensely.
In the center of the village, a two-story building stands out from the crowd, displaying its luxurious style.
Several two-story buildings were scattered around, clearly belonging to the wealthy and powerful families of the village.
Chang Wei and Kashiwagi Miharu carefully observed the area around the village, getting a general idea of the layout and people there.
After that, they began to discuss their action plan.
"According to Yoko Okino, there were about two hundred people in the village, about seventy or eighty of whom were capable of fighting. After removing those who had already been eliminated, there were about sixty people left."
Chang Wei pondered, “The most troublesome thing is that these people are all armed.”
Kashiwagi Miharu nodded in agreement: "That's right. Once we take action, we must eliminate them completely, leaving no survivors and ensuring that innocent civilians are not harmed."
"exactly."
Chang Wei said in a deep voice, "Xiong Jinli, as an evolved being, is not to be underestimated. We must approach him silently, avoid the sentries, and strike at his lair to kill him as soon as possible. Without a leader, the other thugs will fall into chaos, and then we can take control of the situation in one fell swoop."
……
After some discussion, the two finally finalized their action plan.
Kashiwagi Miharu still had some doubts: "But, none of us have ever seen Xiong Jinli, so how can we identify him?"
Chang Wei smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I have a skill that can identify Evolver 513. There is only one Evolver in the entire rural village, so it must be Xiong Jinli without a doubt."
After discussing the matter, the two quietly bypassed the main road and made their way along a side alley of the village.
They cautiously explored, avoiding the patrolling thugs.
Along the way, they found many houses empty, and occasionally saw thugs breaking into houses, followed by loud, unpleasant groans.
Upon seeing this, Chang Wei's expression grew even colder.
But he knew that this was not the time to deal with this matter; the most urgent task was to eliminate Xiong Jinli, the ringleader.
Once he is eliminated, the rest of the thugs will naturally be no threat.
They followed the winding path and gradually approached the two-story building in the center.
However, right at the entrance of the small building, two armed men stood ready, like two guardian deities, making the two men feel a little apprehensive, fearing that the slightest movement would alert these two wary snakes.
"Night is about to fall, why don't we wait until it's dark before we act?"
Chang Wei suggested softly, a sly glint in his eyes:
"At that time, their vigilance will naturally decrease, and our actions will be more successful."
Upon hearing this, Miharu Kashiwagi looked up at the sky.
As the sun slowly set, its afterglow bathed the entire village, gilding it with a golden glow.
He silently calculated in his mind, waiting for nightfall and anticipating that moment.
225 thugs killed
As night fell and the alleyway deepened, Chang Wei and Kashiwagi Miharu remained hidden in the shadows, their eyes fixed intently on the building ahead.
There, figures came and went, and the guards at the entrance were replaced from time to time.
As night deepened, patience waned.
Chang Wei and Kashiwagi Miharu decided to stop waiting and take action.
A flash of silver light appeared, and before the two guards at the door could react, a flash of light appeared, blood gushed from their throats, and the two men fell to the ground.
The two men, as silent as ghosts, suddenly burst through the door and into the house.
Suddenly, the lights came on, and the blinding light caused them to be temporarily blinded.
"Who?"
"Enemy attack!"
……
In the chaos, Chang Wei and Kashiwagi Miharu discovered that the hall was in a mess, with seven or eight women lying naked on the ground.
Several thugs were scrambling to their feet, not even having time to put on their pants, before grabbing their guns to fight back.
Upstairs, more rioters were alerted by the sound of the door being broken down and peeked out to see what was happening.
"I'll go upstairs, you deal with the downstairs!" Chang Wei shouted, turning into a blur as he rushed upstairs.
Kashiwagi Miharu gripped her black Tang sword tightly and swept it across the thugs who were putting on their clothes.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Da da da!"
Gunshots rang out, shaking the entire village.
The rioters outside rushed over upon hearing the news.
But Chang Wei's movements were unpredictable, and his speed was so fast that people couldn't see his figure. The bullets hit the ground and sparks flew up.
