Chapter 609 Punishing the Betrayer
Meanwhile, not long after Han Shuo and his group left the stadium.
In a remote, secluded corner, a giant zombie that had been running relentlessly finally reached its destination.
...
"Clang—!"
A tearing sound rang out, and a pair of huge hands ripped open the chest of the giant zombie.
After the zombie king jumped to the ground, he looked around at his surroundings.
He nodded in satisfaction and stood on the hillside, gazing at the sea not far ahead.
One hour, two hours, three hours...
He remained there patiently, as if waiting for something.
Suddenly, a familiar eagle's cry rang out from the horizon once more.
"grind!"
Upon hearing the sound, the zombie king slowly turned its head.
In the sky, his flock of corpse birds flew rapidly from afar.
The giant horned eagle that led the way was the first to arrive.
As it flew above the zombie king's head, it released its powerful claws and threw a small human figure down from mid-air.
"Smack!"
The figure crashed heavily to the ground, and upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Wai Di!
He was brought back in less than 10 days...
...
At this moment, Wai Di was hit by the impact of the landing and his head was bleeding profusely.
His nose was broken, and his face was covered in blood.
He slowly opened his eyes and awkwardly raised his head.
Then, the first thing that caught his eye was the cold and ruthless face of the Zombie King.
"ah--!"
Wai Di was completely terrified and couldn't help but gasp out.
He never expected that before he could even begin his grand plans for conquest, he would be captured by the monstrous eagle that suddenly appeared in the sky a few days ago.
He couldn't even imagine the terrifying rage the Zombie King would unleash upon discovering his betrayal!
At that moment, he felt utterly hopeless.
"It's over, it's over! I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."
...
A king and his servant, their eyes locked on each other.
However, the zombie king's expression remained unchanged, devoid of any emotion.
He simply uttered a single sentence calmly.
"Oh? My dog can't find its way home? I have to send my men to bring you here personally?"
He deliberately emphasized the word "please".
When the sound reached Wai Di's ears, his body began to tremble violently.
"What to do, what to do..."
His mind raced, and suddenly a brilliant idea struck him—he came up with a perfect way to answer.
Crawling on his knees at the feet of the zombie king, Wai Di replied with a look of terror on his face.
"Master, I have always done my best to carry out your orders and have never dared to disobey you."
"I went south because my legion of half-corpses was completely destroyed. I wanted to find living people to breed some more for my master."
...
Unfortunately, his sophistry and explanations seemed utterly weak.
Everything he had done during this period was clearly visible to the terrifying being before him through satellite monitoring.
The Zombie King spoke coldly: "My dog, he's become wild after going out for a while."
"Don't you think it's a bit foolish of you to try and fool me with these words?"
"No! No! No—!"
Wai Di screamed wildly. At that moment, he saw the Zombie King dragging the chain in his hand and strongly felt the approaching aura of death.
"Master, Master, please let me explain!"
"snort!"
The Zombie King snorted coldly, and a hint of anger finally rose on his face.
The feeling of being betrayed made him very uncomfortable.
He raised his leg and kicked the crooked brother a long way away.
"Crack!"
"Ah—!" A scream and the sound of bones breaking rang out at the same time.
The crooked brother flew backward, his jawbone shattering instantly. If the zombie king hadn't held back a lot of force, that kick alone could have easily knocked his head off.
...
"puff--!"
Despite being in excruciating pain all over his body, Wai Di coughed up blood, his eyes glazed over, yet he continued to crawl forward.
He wanted to live; he was unwilling to die like this.
"Master..."
Faced with his weak words, the zombie king showed no pity and continued talking to himself.
"Um……"
"I have always been fair in rewarding and punishing. You made great contributions when you broke into the underground research institute. Therefore, I will bestow the Legion of Half-Zombies upon you."
"But this time, my dog has become ambitious and started to betray me."
"Tell me... how should I punish you?"
As soon as the words fell, Wai-di's eyes widened.
The zombie king's last words seemed to pronounce a death sentence on him.
He endured the excruciating pain and continued to beg for mercy, his words slurred.
"Master, I truly know I was wrong."
"No, I dare not do it again! Please, I beg you, spare my life!"
...
The Zombie King slowly stood up and waved to the horned eagle hovering in mid-air.
The next moment, the horned eagle suddenly descended, its claws digging into Wai Di's back, lifting him directly off the ground.
"ah--!"
Ignoring Wai Di's pig-like screams, the Zombie King focused his attention on Wai Di's fake left arm with great interest.
After a moment of contemplation, the king finally made his final decision.
"Enough, enough, killing you now would be too boring."
"But I have no choice but to punish you for your betrayal."
After saying this, the zombie king's expression changed drastically. He suddenly pulled on the chain in his hand, and the huge scythe flew straight towards the freak in front of him!
Clang! Clang!
After two flashes of light, the giant scythe severed off an ear and an arm!
"Ah—!" Wai Di screamed as his consciousness rapidly faded.
He still has his prosthetic left arm, but he has permanently lost his other real right arm and his left ear...
The excruciating pain nearly made him faint.
...
The zombie king sheathed his scythe and walked forward step by step.
He gently lifted the crooked boy's face with his finger, examined his masterpiece, and nodded with great satisfaction.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad."
As he muttered to himself, he pulled out another large bottle of turbid liquid from his pocket.
The Zombie King coldly continued, shoving the item into Wai Di's hand.
"My dog, go forth and continue south to build a new force of half-corpses for me."
"Remember to look down carefully at your left ear and right arm that fell to the ground today."
"If you dare to betray me again, next time you will lose your right eye and your left leg!"
"Until...all the organs in your body!"
...
"Yes, yes, yes, master."
"I understand..."
The slightly conscious younger brother instinctively responded with a sound.
This time, he fully realized how terrifying the Zombie King was, and all the ambitions that had sprouted in his heart were completely eradicated by the Zombie King at this moment!
He dared not entertain any more rebellious thoughts, only grateful that he had survived the brink of death today...
Soon, the giant, corpse-like horned eagle took to the air, grabbed Da Can's crooked brother, and disappeared into the distance.
