Chapter 608: Chapter 605 The Fate of the Traitor_1

"Oh, not dead yet?"

Looking at the man on the ground, who was clinging precariously to life, Su Sigui spoke with cold indifference. The man groaned in pain; Su had not used her full strength in the preliminary beat down, but even so, his body was likely ruined.

He had never imagined that his Level 4 New Human strength, which he used to pride himself on, would be completely overpowered when faced with a Level 6 New Human. He was essentially a punching bag, incapable of fighting back.

"I... I was wrong! Spare me, please. I... I made a mistake...huff...cough...really... wrong."

He tried to push himself up, but his entire skeleton felt like it had been ground into dust. The lack of strength was beyond description. Even when he exerted his effort, no sensation of strength could be felt, nor even pain!

With deep regret, he pleaded pitifully to Su Sigui. However, the girl standing before him was not as gentle as she appeared. On the contrary, the softer her exterior, the more ruthless was her heart!

"You admit your mistake, but how will you compensate for my loss?"

Su Sigui gave a strange smile, which made the man’s face change instantly. He couldn’t take this torment any more; every punch from a Level 6 New Human felt like a hydraulic press crushing down on his body – it was completely unbearable.

He winced and blood slowly trickled down his forehead.

"I’m sorry... I’m... sorry..."

He didn’t know how to respond to Su Sigui, so he just repeated these words over and over. He hoped to receive her forgiveness, but if she was easily forgiving, she would not have survived in the post-apocalyptic world for over a decade.

"What use is an apology? You’ve survived this long, you should know that in this apocalyptic world, a fist speaks louder than words? I’ve said it at least three times: Do not betray me!"

"I, like any other ruler, detest betrayal. Yet you dared to do it. It seems that old man Wen Yulong gave you some pretty good stuff."

Su Sigui lifted her chin, sizing up the man before her. The man was now silent. It was clear that Su Sigui was right: Wen Yulong had indeed given him a lot of good stuff, which was nearly impossible for anyone to resist.

"Spare me and...I beg you. As long as you spare me, I’m willing to work like a horse... No, no! You can implant me with a slavery chip, I won’t betray you anymore... Please...."

He crouched his body, grovelling like a whimpering, begging dog.

"Huh~"

Su Sigui sighed but it wasn’t clear what she was sighing about. However, in response to the pleas of the "dog" before her, she merely shook her head, turned, and casually threw an order to her subordinates outside the ring.

"Take him away. Put him down!"

"Huh?"

"No! Please, I won’t dare anymore!"

The man who had committed betrayal was filled with despair at Su Sigui’s words. He screamed and yelled, but no one paid any attention. He was dragged away by a group of subordinates.

Bang!

With a single gunshot, the men came back and bent towards Su Sigui who nodded and simply said, "It’s done."

"Mm."

Holding a tablet and tapping on it a few times without even looking up, her attention was turned to the people operating the keyboards in front of the monitor. She fell into contemplation.

After she failed to steal energy crystals from Guanglan Base last time, she had been clashing with Wen Yulong directly.

Both sides had fought countless times, though both suffered losses. However, the City of Bright Moon, with its numerous elite fighters, chose the battleground at Guanglan Base.

Because of this, Wen Yulong despised Su Sigui, and to prevent the people of City of Bright Moon from intruding and infiltrating, Guanglan Base was shut down at least three times a month. Soldiers appeared everywhere for surprise inspections, guarding against the people of City of Bright Moon like thieves.

While it appeared this way on the surface, would Wen Yulong, with his cunning nature, just continue to play this exhausting game against Su Sigui?

Of course, he would also resort to using some underhanded tactics, such as bribery.

And the man who had just been tortured and finally disposed of, was one of the bribed!

Why only one of them? Su Sigui had been living in the post-apocalyptic world for over a decade. Hadn’t she experienced enough of the skirmishes and treachery during this time?

During this period, she had gained the experience and wisdom to not lose out to Wen Yulong, the old fox of the official scene!

She managed her subordinates strictly and would not tolerate betrayal - something no ruler could bear. She had repeatedly mentioned how miserable the fate of the traitor would be. With her own extraordinary strength, this deterrence was very effective.

Even under such circumstances, there were people who dared to betray her?

Su Sigui never trusted human nature as it was a complex entity. Even she could only comprehend half of it. But she knew that when a person does something forbidden, there is only the first and countless times. Therefore, she would never trust anyone who had betrayed her!

Similarly, it occurred to her that if Wen Yulong was able to bribe this individual, he could certainly bribe others in the City of Bright Moon!

Wen Yulong was always cautious, and such practices of infiltrating a mole would not be done only once and limited to one person. The fact that people could be bribed meant that the stakes he could give were very high, which could mean there were likely more people in the City of Bright Moon being bribed!

Her sharp, icy gaze swept across everyone present. Many people felt an inexplicable chill down their spines and stiffened, even though they hadn’t met her gaze.

"Tianyu."

Su Sigui called out, and a young man walked over to her, carrying a gun and saluting her.

"Tomorrow, you will go and investigate all the people who have entered Guanglan Base and returned. Scrutinize them thoroughly. If you find anyone in contact with other forces in Guanglan Base, kill them!"

"Yes!"

With a lethal look in his eyes, Xu Tianyu strode out.

She felt somewhat relieved. Just as she was about to ponder why they hadn’t found the energy source of the Zombie King, one of the men in front of the monitor suddenly exclaimed with delight.

"Found... found it! It’s Level 6!"

"Really found it!"

"I found it!"

The operator was overjoyed with his discovery, but suppressed his excitement after a glance at Su Sigui. After turning his attention to the screen again, he discovered the energy source, although indeed coming from a Level 6 Zombie, did not quite match Su Sigui’s descriptions.

"This is indeed a Level 6 Zombie energy source, but the amount isn’t as represented, and it’s on land."

"Oh?"

Su Sigui jumped down from the ring, quickly walked to the operator’s screen, and took one look.

She saw an overhead view of the street, composed of several strings of lines. A variety of points were clustered together, among which an azure dot, much larger than the others, was particularly conspicuous!
