Father Wang’s fury was reignited.
“Damn these traitors! They actually want us to send them to the White Empire?”
“F*ck that! If I didn’t clear out half of the city, they would have ended up as zombie food!”
The middle-aged subordinate lowered his head and did not dare to make a sound. These troublemakers were indeed an ungrateful bunch, and did not appreciate the fact that they were already in one of the safest places in the Red Empire.
Thanks to the Red Empire’s large population, the number of people that turned into zombies were also equally as large. Furthermore, the zombies were not the only threat, there were mutated beasts, monsters, demons, and so on.
The only reason Father Wang had managed to make this much progress and establish a foothold was thanks to the demon emperor subordinates Wang Mang had assigned to him.
“Go tell them that if they dare to cause trouble again, 1 will chop them into pieces.”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man was about to speak when more footsteps were heard from outside. Another middle-aged man walked in and said seriously, “Leader, there are more than 600 people who have begun to organize themselves to rob the other civilians and leave.”
“What?! How dare they!”
With a furious roar, Father Wang hurriedly walked toward the entrance of the base, and Wang Mang naturally followed him, as did the three demon emperors.
A few minutes later, they arrived outside the military base, and saw the troublemakers harassing and attacking the troops.
Father Wang stepped forward and roared, “What are you all doing?”
Hearing this, the troublemakers stopped, and the troops responsible for maintaining order also made way for Father Wang and his entourage.
After seeing Father Wang, the troublemakers began to shout angrily.
“Why won’t you allow us to leave? It’s our freedom to go wherever we want!” “That’s right! What right do you have to restrict our freedom of choice?” “Don’t tell me you want to be king? Why do we have to listen to you?”
“That’s right. Give us guns and food. Even if you don’t escort us to the White Empire, we’ll go ourselves!”
Wang Mang did not interfere.
After all, this was the force that Father Wang had established himself. He would not be around to help his father solve problems all the time.
Seeing these impudent troublemakers, Father Wang became even more furious and laughed.
“Looks like I’ve been too lenient on you guys!”
“I’ll tell you why!”
“You can leave if you want to. Pay for the food, clothes, security fees, and rescue fees you owe us for the past half a month of your existence.”
“I won’t charge you too much. Each of you will have to pay 300 kilograms of food, then you can get lost.”
This incensed the troublemakers.
“You fed us yourself, and we worked for you.”
“Why should we compensate you? Your troops should escort us to the White Empire!”
“No, not only do you have to escort us there, but you have to give us supplies and firearms as well!”
Hearing this, Father Wang’s face was filled with killing intent.
“Very good! Since you want to leave so badly, I’ll fulfill your wish!”
“From today onward, all these troublemakers will be assigned to the forced labor division!”
“They can lighten the workload of the rest of us!”
“Any dissenters will be executed!”
Hearing Father Wang’s words, the troublemakers were stunned, but soon started to curse at Father Wang, and many people even tried to break out of the encirclement.
Father Wang then gave the order, “Kill those who resist!”
The troops opened fire without hesitation after hearing that, and many people fell to the ground, some dead, some injured.
After that, panic set in, and the troublemakers hugged their heads in fear and stopped resisting. Once the troublemakers were subdued, they were dragged away by the troops.
This decision also served as a strong deterrent to the onlookers. They could tell that although Father Wang’s faction was related to the National Guardian Beast, it was not a benevolent organization.
However, at the very least, order and safety here was maintained.
Wang Mang nodded in satisfaction. Thankfully, his father was swift and decisive. This would help to establish his father’s authority, and hopefully prevent future uprisings.
However, at this moment, Wang Mang’s expression suddenly changed, and his brows furrowed. He could sense the aura of a land immortal expert in the distance.
Moments later, Wang Mang soared into the sky and rushed in the direction of that aura.
Ten minutes later, Wang Mang arrived at the dividing border of the city, and spotted a monster that was as strong as a land immortal.
It had the head of a cow and the body of a human, and towered at over a hundred meters tall.
Its body was pitch-black, its eyes were red, and its face was ferocious and terrifying.
Incidentally, the monster was chasing after a small and agile girl. When Wang Mang took a closer look at the girl, he was elated.
This girl was the little zombie girl he was looking for!
