Chapter 78: Chapter 70: King of Soldiers Takes Action"Because you’re a rich person, you won’t understand the struggles of people like us at the bottom of society. For folks like us, it’s possible to risk our lives over a few dozen bucks. But for you? As soon as we catch you, we can instantly go from nobodies to multimillionaires. Do you think I should put them to death?" "Don’t you know about the concept of karma in this world?" "Ha, I’m an assassin, not the Buddha. The creed of our Zombie Gang is: those who defy me perish, those who block me die. Old man, I’ve lived my life on the edge, so President Su, you have no other choice!" "What if I refuse?" Sophie secretly resolved to die rather than fall into the hands of such ruthless criminals. Otherwise, the consequences might be a fate worse than death! "I hate women like you who act all high and mighty. Facing death yet still being stubborn!" Shi Jiangda couldn’t help but laugh heartily in triumph, "What? Do you still have a card up your sleeve?" "Absolutely!" Unexpectedly, just as Shi Jiangda’s laughter was fading, a voice filled with playful intrigue came from outside the door. In the next second, a figure swiftly floated in! In an instant, he stood in front of Sophie. Shi Jiangda was startled by the voice and, upon focusing, was shocked to see that it was the personal bodyguard of President Su. He knew this person was Lin Mu, rumored to be from a mysterious mercenary organization on the North African grasslands, known as the King of North African Special Forces—definitely someone their Zombie Gang didn’t want to mess with! "Lin Mu, you’re Lin Mu? Didn’t you go to save Su Xiaowan?" "Ha, did you think your little tricks could deceive everyone?" Lin Mu laughed coldly and took a step closer to Shi Jiangda to prepare for an attack. "But to be fair, your Zombie Gang is quite a formidable opponent, using an excellent diversion tactic that almost fooled an old hunter like me. But now, your time has come!" "Wait," Shi Jiangda, not for nothing the brains of the Zombie Gang, was always strategic, "Don’t forget that I still have cards to play. If you dare touch me, I’ll immediately take President Su’s sister with me!" Lin Mu laughed heartily, "Are you talking about Xiaowan? She’s just an assistant at President Su’s side. And I, personally, hate being threatened. If you’re really looking for someone to die with, I’ll gladly oblige right now!" In fact, Lin Mu wasn’t truly indifferent to Xiaowan’s safety, but at such a critical moment, showing any concern for her would be used by the criminals to manipulate him. So he decided to go all out, making it less likely for the thugs to harm Xiaowan immediately, buying time for his next rescue plan. "Fine, you’re forcing my hand!" Shi Jiangda gritted his teeth and, while Lin Mu wasn’t yet steady on his feet, launched a preemptive strike, lunging with a dagger in his right hand. At this moment, Lin Mu was unarmed; facing a dagger with bare hands would surely be a disadvantage. If Lin Mu dodged, Shi Jiangda could seize Sophie as a human shield, gaining an invincible position! However, it seemed he underestimated Lin Mu’s hand-to-hand combat skills. It was known that, back on the North African grasslands in the World Mercenary Free-Fighting Championships, Lin Mu single-handedly defeated nearly a hundred strong opponents, and his monstrous, terrifying strength was legendary! Therefore, when Lin Mu saw the dagger-wielding attack, he didn’t dodge, masterfully using his Palm Blade to neutralize the threat, then followed up with an incredible Shadowless Kick aiming for Shi Jiangda’s shin! This move was overwhelmingly tyrannical. With this experienced maneuver, Shi Jiangda had no time to dodge Lin Mu’s bizarre footwork from below. A crisp crackling sound was heard, and Shi Jiangda’s left leg shin was broken! S~eaʀᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. As Shi Jiangda’s injured shin caused him to fall forward, he waved the dagger desperately at Lin Mu, in a last-ditch effort. But Lin Mu wouldn’t give him any chance to succeed. His iron-clamp-like hands tightly seized Shi Jiangda’s wrist and twisted it hard. Shi Jiangda’s hands immediately relaxed at an awkward angle, and both daggers clattered to the ground. The severely wounded Shi Jiangda could no longer withstand the unbearably intense pain of his flesh, involuntarily collapsing forward and kneeling in front of Lin Mu. Unfortunately for him, Lin Mu was a ruthless guy. In his world, opponents like this deserved to be beaten to death rather than allowed to become future threats, so he kicked that fellow in the face again. The next second, the once pale and slightly handsome Korean-style pretty face instantly morphed into a hideous visage, blood leaking from a crooked nose and skewed eyes. Upon seeing this, Lin Mu quietly lamented, thinking that even if he sent this guy to South Korea for plastic surgery, it might be too late. "You truly deserve to die!" Lin Mu kicked Shi Jiangda in the stomach again, "How could you viciously lay a hand on such a beautiful lady like Sophie?" As Lin Mu brutally tortured Shi Jiangda’s body, he also showed favor to the beautiful executive next to him, while Shi Jiangda let out another anguished wail beneath him. "Enough, don’t kill him!" Sophie intervened, "We haven’t even questioned him yet!" "Alright then," Lin Mu acquiesced to the executive’s request, "Since the lady pleaded for you, I’ll spare your life, but you’d better cooperate. What task did the Corpse Emperor assign you? I doubt it was just to assassinate Sophie, was it?" At this point, Shi Jiangda’s hands were utterly crippled, and his left leg’s shin was crushed. He posed no threat anymore. The once formidable Zombie Killer of the Zombie Gang was nearly a literal zombie himself! Still, his pride remained, and he disdainfully glanced sidelong at Lin Mu and Sophie before lowering his head, "You might as well kill me, but don’t expect to get any information from my mouth!" "Oh, a tough little guy you are!" Lin Mu picked up the black dagger Shi Jiangda had dropped moments ago, waved it in front of his face, and then swung it, not at his vital parts, but slicing open his earlobe instead. Clutching his ear with his one remaining good hand, Shi Jiangda screamed even louder, a chilling sound that even the usually composed Sophie couldn’t bear to watch. She realized then that Lin Mu had such a ruthless side, but it was an incredibly manly side too! "Refreshing... refreshing... Do you have other methods?" It seemed this guy was as stubborn as a stone in a latrine—both stinky and hard. It seemed heavier punishment was needed before he realized how formidable Lord Niu really was! "Alright, I’ll oblige you!" Lin Mu smiled evilly, "I enjoy torturing such tenacious fools like you, let’s have a contest and see if you can endure till the end!"
