Zhang Xiaoqiang's analysis of the woman was taken as hesitation by the woman. In her anxiety, she increased her leverage. Unfortunately, Zhang Xiaoqiang was not interested in her at all. She could even give up Zhuo Mingyue just like that. Was this woman as pretty as Zhuo Mingyue?
"Answer my question, or I'll kill you!"
Zhang Xiaoqiang squatted in front of the woman. The flickering candlelight illuminated half of his face, and the other half was hidden in the darkness. The gadget in his right eye glowed green, making him feel like reality and illusion were intertwined.
Zhang Xiaoqiang's tone did not change. It was calm and cold. The woman struggled to sit up, but her limbs were removed. She could not move at all. All she could do was wriggle on the ground like a maggot.
"My name is Marlenna. I'm the Divine Servant of the New Era Goddess Temple. Head Commander Adenauer of the military and two apostles of the Tulip Family Evolution Unit are arresting me. They have the super bomb experiment report and the test data of the airship …"
Ma Lenna was very direct this time. She didn't even think about bargaining anymore. She told him everything that had happened outside, including the supernova bomb and the air frigate, as well as Adenauer and the rest. Hearing Ma Lenna's explanation, Zhang Xiao Qiang finally understood why the New Era had come here.
"You were the ones preparing to launch the destructive weapon in Sichuan?
And you were the ones who destroyed my base with lasers? "
Zhang Xiaoqiang exploded as soon as he heard this. He had never been bullied like this in his life. An earth-shattering war with countless casualties had been disrupted by outsiders. This was the first time he had tasted defeat. Thinking back to the lasers that destroyed the base, the drones that exploded into fireballs, and the soldiers that were burned to ashes, his blood rushed to his brain. He grabbed Marlenna's neck and kept on squeezing. Her face turned purple, and even her tongue was sticking out.
Marlenna shook her head with all her might. Zhang Xiaoqiang had a last shred of clarity, so he did not break her neck. However, the strong suffocation made Marlenna feel like she was going to die the next moment. If she was still in Zhang Xiaoqiang's hands, she would have died. At least, she would not have ended up in such a miserable state. But here, in Zhang Xiaoqiang's hands, she had a chance to live. As long as she did not become a puppet, she was willing to be the lowest bitch. Therefore, her fear of death made her struggle with her last bit of strength.
"Boom …"
Marlenna was thrown to the ground by Zhang Xiaoqiang. She panted with all her might, but there was no hatred or hatred in her eyes. There was only fear and pleading, as if she was begging Zhang Xiaoqiang not to hurt her anymore. However, the pleading in her eyes did not extinguish the anger in Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart. Although they had achieved a great victory, the result was not what he wanted. He had commanded countless battles, and it was not that he had never encountered setbacks, but he had never suffered a complete defeat like last time. It made him feel like he had been made a fool of, like a clown.
Although Nuwa's Plan B was orchestrated by Zhang Xiaoqiang, and she would only give him the credit, to Zhang Xiaoqiang, failure was failure. There was nothing good to say. He had been suppressing his anger, but before he could vent it, the culprit had killed him right at his doorstep. A complete Funeral Helicopter had been destroyed just like that. Yuri was seriously injured, and it was unknown whether he could recover. If he couldn't, he would lose an excellent pilot, and the only pilot with actual combat experience.
"Don't kill me, I'll listen to you. I'll do whatever you want me to do, as long as you don't kill me, don't hurt me …"
Ma Lenna slumped to the ground, her body writhing. She ignored her face rubbing against the damp and dirty ground, as though she couldn't smell the stench of the ground. Her eyes stared straight at Zhang Xiao Qiang's angry eyes that flickered in and out of existence in the dim candlelight.
"You're from the New Era. Why did they do this to you?
Looking at the torture you've suffered, I'm afraid some things aren't that simple. "
Zhang Xiaoqiang suddenly chuckled. His tone was amiable, but he didn't help Marlenna up. He had already restrained his anger. Zhang Xiaoqiang was no longer a person who would lose his head because of a moment of anger. He had matured his way of making choices. The past was the past. They were still surrounded by eight helicopters. Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't even hope for reinforcements. Under the firepower of the New Era, any resistance on the ground was futile. He didn't want any more casualties.
Four of the twelve helicopters had been taken care of by him. Marlenna had fallen into his hands, and she was so cooperative. Since he wanted to extract enough benefits from this woman, Zhang Xiaoqiang didn't feel any sympathy for her. To him, anyone who was on the frigate that day deserved to die, be it the crew or the commander. If Marlenna couldn't give him what he wanted, there was no reason for this woman to live.
"Because … because …"
Marlenna suddenly thought of what Zhang Xiaoqiang had said. Zhang Xiaoqiang said something about Sichuan, but this was Hubei. How did Zhang Xiaoqiang know about it?
Hubei was New Era's forbidden zone. They had destroyed the 9th Division and all the supply bases here. This meant that the man in front of her was a high-ranking member of the Hubei faction, and the Hubei faction had connections with the Sichuan faction.
Thinking about it from another perspective, there was only one possibility. The factions in Sichuan and Hubei were from the same system, the former Chinese army. This explained why the factions in Hubei were so strong. Half of the Funeral Helicopters, the 9th Division and close to 3,000 people, and an entire team of Youyinhua Evolvers had disappeared without a trace.
The quick-witted Marlenna didn't know what to say. How could she say it?
Could it be that she wanted to gain merits, so she decided to destroy the troops that were fighting the zombies?
And these troops were from the same system?
At that time, there were two New Era divisions, the rebel army and the underground base. They had fought together against the sea of zombies, and at the most critical moment, Marlenna had ordered to attack the human camp. In the end, she had even wanted to destroy all the humans. Wasn't telling the truth asking for death?
Ma Lenna's hesitation was seen as a trick by Zhang Xiaoqiang. He could tell that this woman wasn't being honest. Zhang Xiaoqiang had read many people, so how could he not guess that there was more to it?
Without giving Marlenna too much time to think, he stepped on her chest and increased the force of his foot, causing tears to well up in Marlenna's eyes.
"You want to lie to me?
I feel that your companions are too kind to you. If it was me, I would … "
Zhang Xiao Qiang stared at Ma Lenna's frightened eyes, as he spoke coldly. Halfway through his words, he pulled out the Rat King's Blade, and slashed down on Ma Lenna's eyelids. Ma Lenna could not feel the strength that supported half of Zhang Xiao Qiang's weight in her chest, and all she could see was the Rat King's Blade slicing through the ground. The Rat King's Blade sliced through the ground like a knife cutting through butter.
"I will chop off all four of your limbs. The beauty of the Venus Statue lies in its fragility. The fragility gives people unlimited imagination. I will let you have twice as much imagination as her."
Twice as much meant that Ma Lenna's legs would also be chopped off, turning her into the human stick that Wei Xiaobao talked about in The Deer and the Cauldron. Marlenna's Chinese was not bad, and she immediately understood the meaning behind Zhang Xiaoqiang's words. Her tears immediately burst out, and each tear was like a pearl necklace that was mixed with water and rolled down to the ground.
Zhang Xiaoqiang wouldn't be moved by tears. Back then at the gathering place's bridgehead, who knew how many women had cried and jumped into the stream helplessly. Their corpses filled the ditch, and by the lakeside, thousands of people were begging for mercy, but they were still killed by Zhang Xiaoqiang's order. Blood dyed the lake red, and Zhang Xiaoqiang's heart was as hard as iron.
"We are the inspectors sent by the European headquarters to India to test the new weapon. The headquarters is very concerned about the use of the new weapon. According to them, with this weapon, humans can easily wipe out all the zombies on Earth and establish a new order. There is also a corvette to launch the new weapon … The corvette project is the main research project of the New Era in the past two years.
The Corvette Project is the main research project of the New Era in the past two years. The virus has caused some plants to mutate, and new materials are emerging one after another. This kind of Corvette breaks the shackles of the previous metal materials. It is a brand new biological material without pollution or overly complicated refining processes. If the production problem is solved, the New Era can produce tens of millions of spaceships. At that time, no one can stop the rise of the New Era … "
Marlenna's status wasn't low, and she knew a lot. She told him some of the top secret information of the New Era. When she was talking, Zhang Xiaoqiang's back was already soaked in cold sweat. The strength of the New Era was far from what he could guess. Every time he thought he had learned something, he found that what he knew was always the tip of the iceberg.
Marlenna didn't dare to hide anything. She told him about how she had given the order to attack the defensive line, how she hesitated when Ernst confirmed that the troops below were New Era soldiers, and how she would be punished for giving the order to use the supernova bombs in order to maximize the profits. She told him everything in detail.
After she finished, she found that Zhang Xiaoqiang's face had turned green. At this time, she guessed that she had done something stupid again. Under pressure, she told the truth, but the consequences of the truth seemed to be very serious. It was so serious that the man in front of her couldn't hide his killing intent. Although Zhang Xiaoqiang's ability wasn't as good as Zhuo Mingyue's, and even worse than Gus, he was still a high-level evolver. Even among the New Era, his ranking wasn't low. The pure killing intent formed invisible tides that washed over Marlenna again and again, making her tremble involuntarily.
Marlenna's ability wasn't bad either. Otherwise, she wouldn't have become a Valkyrie and be responsible for protecting the Goddess. Even so, she didn't feel good under this kind of killing intent. If it was an ordinary person, they would have been scared to death.
"Pfft …"
Fresh blood spurted out of Marlenna's mouth. Zhang Xiaoqiang couldn't control the strength of his foot. Even her physique, which was several times stronger than an ordinary person, couldn't bear it. Then she felt as if a boulder in her chest was as heavy as a mountain. She couldn't release the air in her lungs, and her face began to turn red.
Zhang Xiao Qiang hesitated in his heart, as long as he exerted a little more strength, this culprit who had messed up his plans and almost caused the deaths of over a thousand people would die under his feet. However, with the crimes this woman had committed, wouldn't it be too easy for her to die just like that?
Including those who were shot by the laser and those who were killed by the zombies because of the emergency retreat, the number of casualties in the defensive position had reached three hundred.
These three hundred casualties were all attributed to the New Era by Zhang Xiaoqiang, but now he had to blame it on this poisonous woman in front of him. In his heart, this woman had to die three hundred times to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Cough cough … spare me …"
Another mouthful of blood. Marlenna struggled to say these words with a weak moan. But Zhang Xiaoqiang was awakened by the faint begging sound. He moved his right foot, and Marlenna's back arched. Her eyes turned white, and her chest quickly expanded. She took a deep breath, letting herself breathe after suffocating.
