Chapter 270 Take a longer view
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

The shrill howling that did not sound like a human voice echoed back and forth in the closed underground prison, scaring all the prisoners so much that their anuses tightened and they looked at Zhu Haomiao in horror.

On the other side, the young man raised his hand and grabbed, his five fingers clenched in a slow and ferocious spiral, as if he was holding onto something invisible, and was dragging it out with difficulty and awkwardness.

A few meters away from him, Huo Hong fell to the ground in agony and convulsions, curled up into a ball. He felt as if his heart was being entangled and bitten by a poisonous snake, shrinking and strangling him bit by bit. At the same time, countless poisonous insects were gnawing at his heart, liver, spleen, and lungs.

The incomparable pain came in waves, one stronger than the other. Huo Hong opened his mouth wide, his body twitched uncontrollably, veins bulged on his forehead, and he wanted to shout for mercy, but he couldn't even make a sound. He could only make a sound like pumping air from a bellows.

ho ho ho ho...

Looking at the Overlord Sword twitching and shitting and pissing on the ground, and then looking at Zhu Haomiao who was raising his hand to grab as if pulling something, Yan Yunsheng felt a chill rushing from his tailbone to the top of his head, his whole body felt like it was electrified, and his scalp was numb.

What kind of magic skill is this? !

It’s not that he hasn’t tortured criminals before, but it has to be said that many people in the underworld are really hard-hearted!

In addition, after reaching a certain grade, warriors have strong control over their own flesh and blood, and it is difficult to make them surrender with ordinary torture, let alone like now, when the pain is so severe that they have convulsions and incontinence, and have no dignity at all.

This pain seemed to transcend the body and reach the depths of the soul...

At the other end, as if something was pulled out from the air, Zhu Haomiao suddenly pulled his arm back and clenched his five fingers tightly.

boo~
An emerald green mist invisible to others rose from Huo Hong's body and instantly sank into his palm.

[Black Book]: Swallows source matter, [Body] +0.1
His eyes suddenly lit up, and Zhu Haomiao looked at Huo Hong, who had fainted but not lost his life, and raised the corners of his mouth in surprise.

The Yamata no Orochi's divinity combined with the power of [Gluttony] can actually strip essence from living things? !
The key is that this is an extremely powerful means of attack. If it comes suddenly, it will be difficult for ordinary enemies to guard against it!
But in a blink of an eye, Zhu Haomiao realized that the biggest reason why he could take the source essence from Huo Hong so easily was that these prisoners had their true energy restricted, their hands and feet were shackled, and they could not resist at all.

If he wanted to use this move in actual combat, it would be a bit difficult with his current LV.1 [Gluttony] level...

However... I have no shortage of killing methods...

Of the eight basic powers, [Anger], and even [Pride] authority, which one is not stronger than [Gluttony]?

The key is that it can improve basic attributes!

Thinking of this, Zhu Haomiao couldn't help but look at other cells, his greedy and hungry eyes seemed to be peeping at the delicious fat meat.

The hungry gaze filled with "appetite" was like a snowy wind blowing through the prison. All the prisoners subconsciously huddled in the corner farthest from him, shivering and keeping silent.

Even Yan Yunsheng who was beside him felt the creepy chill and did not dare to look at the boy's eyes that were glowing with light.

Just as he was about to randomly select a lucky audience member to taste the saltiness, Zhu Haomiao suddenly felt something in his heart. He frowned and smacked his lips regretfully.

He felt a little tired, not on the physical level, but on the spiritual and divine level!
It seems... I need to improve my status and [Gluttony] level to continue to increase the frequency of using this move...

With a sigh of lingering satisfaction, Zhu Haomiao gave up the bold idea of ​​giving each prisoner a bite, and took Yan Yunsheng out of the prison, asking softly as they walked.

"Captain Yan, how long will Huo Hong be kept here?"

"Well, the Ministry of Justice has already handed down the verdict. He will be executed next autumn."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao nodded slightly.

According to the laws of Dazhen, the death penalty is carried out with caution. It is normal for the process from arrest to trial, sentencing, to execution to take several years.

This is to prevent wrongful convictions, but it is also the reason why prisons are overcrowded everywhere...

There is nothing wrong with the original intention of the death penalty being prudent, but now the world is in turmoil, big thieves are crossing states and counties, and small thieves are occupying mountains and swamps. The inefficient and corrupt state machinery can no longer maintain the normal operation of the body, and cannot deter the powerful lunatics.

It's time to use severe punishments in troubled times!

Thinking of this, Zhu Haomiao couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.

Are you really getting into it by playing the "role-playing method"?

His most important task at present is to build up the [Yanhuang Arsenal]. As for the rise and fall of the local indigenous nation, he will just go with the flow.

After walking out of the prison, Zhu Haomiao looked up at the sky and let out a long breath calmly.

Somehow, he had realized that after beheading the three prison-robbers, his fate had shifted once again, and his luck had further increased!
And in the long river of time, a chaotic system that contains all possibilities, any slight change may lead the whole world to a completely different situation!
If the Heavenly Dao in the future lets "Li Lin" take on the responsibility of ending the chaotic world, then it might not be a bad idea to give it a try...

But, I have to leave eventually, and I can’t get too entangled with this world.

You can try small tasks like destroying cities and strongholds, felling mountains and breaking temples, and exterminating a country alone, but you won't do anything that is too laborious!

After the baptism of the first heaven, Zhu Haomiao has gradually grown into a mature descender.

When looking at the affairs of the fantasy realm, one should have a detached attitude.

While enjoying the worldly life in the game, you can also be independent from the rest of the world!
Enjoy without getting addicted!

Behind Zhu Haomiao, Yan Yunsheng looked at this mysterious boss and inexplicably felt a contradictory and strange temperament.

Unfathomable, evil and weird... like a hermit who has experienced many vicissitudes of life.

But at the same time, he seems to be curious about everything, just like an innocent child.

Just then, a civil servant came up, quietly handed Yan Yunsheng a stack of banknotes, whispered a few words, and left quietly.

After a long while, Yan Yunsheng carefully approached Zhu Haomiao.

"Inspector, this is your copy."

Zhu Haomiao took the banknote casually and stuffed it into the small leather bag around his waist without even looking at it, then smiled and nodded.

"You will distribute the rest. Make sure to clearly distinguish rewards and punishments so that every brother will be convinced."

Knowing that this was a test for himself, Yan Yunsheng calmly clasped his fists and saluted: "Please rest assured, sir."

Seeing his confident look, Zhu Haomiao patted his shoulder.

"From now on, you will be on duty in the hall when I'm not here."

Hearing this, Yan Yunsheng was shocked and bowed his head in fear and trepidation: "I dare not."

"I don't have much time to deal with trivial matters. I asked you to sit in the hall, so just sit there and don't worry."

Patting Yan Yunsheng's shoulder again, Zhu Haomiao took a step forward and gradually walked away.

"It's just an inspection. Look at the long term."
