Think You Can Escape Once You're in Luo Chen's Hands?

No, the Empire might just be seeing Patriot in the Reunion Movement.

That's why they came up with this obviously absurd plan.

In short, Luo Chen, as the empire's most loyal soldier, agreed to the mission first.

Then he got the Empire to provide some personal information about Boris and Buckle, and he was waiting for the right moment to act.

At the same time.

Patriot Boczkaszti was only a day's journey away from Luo Chen, was already on his way with his sword drawn.

Patriot were supposed to be very happy today.

Because it won't be long before I can meet FrostNova.

Moreover, there were far fewer Imperial troops near Chernobog.

There was no fighting for a whole month.

--Until this evening.

He led a team to attack a group of thugs who were controlling villagers and forcing them to work.

When he arrived, he discovered that the group of white-clad thugs were actually all members of the Reunion Movement.

Moreover, the head of the prison guards was an old acquaintance of his.

Yangge, from the Yeti Squad.

At this moment, Yangge was supervising the road construction work of the labor camp inmates.

Because the Patriot and their Shieldguards suddenly surrounded them, the convicts all dropped their tools and stood aside to slack off.

"How... how... did you... arrest... innocent people?"

The Patriot pointed at the dusty, disheveled laborers.

The laborers in the Ursus Snowfield were all political prisoners exiled by the Empire and family members of the Infected.

Therefore, when the Patriot saw these prisoners, they naturally thought of the laborers on the snowy plains.

Yangge also knew that Patriot hadn't quite grasped the concept yet.

Can the laborers captured by the Empire be compared to those captured by our Reunion Movement?

We are a righteous organization that resists the empire; anyone we capture must be a bad person.

Where did these innocent people come from?

"Patriot, these are all criminals who have broken the law. Where did these innocent people come from?"

Yangge spoke casually, then suddenly pulled out a whip and lashed one of the lazy men.

"* Ursus swear word*, you eat nothing and do nothing right, if you slack off again I'll send you to the intensive care unit."

"I won't do it again, I won't do it again, please don't send me there."

Upon hearing the words "intensive care unit," the beaten prisoner instantly jumped up, clutching his arms, as if he had seen a ghost.

He immediately stopped slacking off and picked up a shovel to get to work.

Upon hearing this, the other lazy workers reacted instinctively, picking up their tools and getting to work.

Yangge's act of whipping prisoners further tarnished the Patriot's image.

Although he had no expression, a red light flashed in his eyes.

Whipping people—isn't that forced labor?

The Patriot is like a traditional old father who sees his daughter with dyed blonde hair and animals having a party.

He spoke in a trembling voice.

"You... you are... forcing... them."

"Of course, we must deal with criminals with swift and decisive measures. After all, being lenient with criminals is being lenient with good people."

At this point, Yangge's gaze fell on two prisoners who were slacking off at work.

Then.

Under the watchful eyes of the Patriot, Yangge did not hesitate for a moment.

He suddenly grabbed the two prisoners and lashed their bodies with a whip.

The resounding whipping echoed in the afterglow of the setting sun, as if reminding every prisoner that the rules here were not to be violated.

While Yangge was whipping the victim, a strange smile appeared on his face.

His smile was full of mockery and smugness, as if he were enjoying the sadistic pleasure.

To others, Yangge was like a sadistic psychopath who treated prisoners as his playthings, wantonly venting his emotions and power.

The Shieldguards behind Aiguo were so frightened by this sight that they all took a step back.

If they didn't know Yangge, they might have seen this psychopath and immediately killed him with a single blow, then rescued the innocent people who were being oppressed.

But they knew Yangge and knew that Yangge used to be a quiet and calm person.

It was precisely because they understood Yangge that they felt horrified at this moment.

Feeling scared.

What exactly turned a person into this?

However, deep down, Yangge felt no pleasure whatsoever.

He was simply maintaining the peace and order of this society in his own way.

He knew that only by severely punishing the prisoners could they understand their mistakes and prevent them from committing the same crimes again in the future.

And so, under the watchful eyes of the Patriot, Yangge completed the punishment of the two prisoners.

The ferocity on his face vanished instantly, replaced by determination and resolve, as if he had done something truly great.

But that's precisely what makes it even more bizarre.

However, Patriot doesn't have the ability to read minds, so he obviously can't know his thought process.

All that was seen was the established fact that he had indiscriminately beaten the laborers.

If Yangge has become like this, what will happen to the others?

What has become of my precious daughter?

"Where are the others...?"

Patriot's red-glowing eyes scanned the area, but he didn't spot the rest of the Yeti Squad.

"Big Bear is in charge of the seriously ill, while the others are managing other construction teams."

"They... are... doing... these things too!"

Patriot's heavy breathing was amplified by Yangge's words, producing a deep, heavy metal tone.

However, Yangge failed to notice Aiguo's blood pressure problem.

Instead, he praised Big Bear with an envious look:

"He did a really good job, killing seven or eight people a week."

Chapter 199 The Empire has begun to feel the pain.

"Um?"

Patriot stared at Yangge, who looked on with envy, his eyes widening slightly.

Why would Big Bear kill seven or eight laborers a week?

Why do you feel envious when you hear that Big Bear kill many people?

Patriot has lived for hundreds of years and has seen all sorts of people.

He had seen monsters, whether they were paranoid, insane, or even had several personalities crammed into one body.

The number of guards who watch over prisoners is already countless.

But this was the first time I'd ever seen a guard like Yangge, with such a gleam in his eyes and such unwavering conviction, whipping prisoners.

He desperately wants to know what made him this way.

"Whose people are these... Reunion Movement members?"

Patriot then pointed to the other guards.

He had never seen a person before.

"These are all General Luo's men."

"By the way, Patriot, you don't know Chief of Staff Luo, do you?"

"Chief Luo is not only a good person, but also ruthless. He swindled all the villagers out of their money and food in just one week by posing as a member of a cult."

Yangge said proudly, recalling Luo Chen's astonishing actions.

He had nothing to say but admire him.

My older sister and I tried to persuade the villagers for a week to protect their property, but no one listened and they were even insulted.

As a result, after Chief of Staff Luo arrived...

With a little effort, he helped the villagers safeguard all their belongings.

Even the villagers had to thank them.

He understood from that moment on.

Chief of Staff Luo is a wise and virtuous man.

"That's called... being a good person?"

Patriot suddenly felt a deep generation gap between themselves and young people.

He could understand every single word Yangge said.

But after hearing the whole sentence, he still didn't understand what it meant.

"FrostNova... is also... guarding the prisoners?"

Patriot then inquired about FrostNova's whereabouts.

Even Yangge and Big Bear have turned out like this; he's almost afraid to imagine what FrostNova looks like now.

If FrostNova has been corrupted, he must make the Black Hand behind it all pay the price.

"The eldest sister didn't supervise the prisoners."

Hearing this, Patriot's mood calmed down a little.

It seems that FrostNova still has some principles and won't have her values easily swayed.

This can be considered a good thing amidst bad times.

"She doesn't have time for such trivial matters; she's pursuing Chief Luo and attending school on the side."

"Speaking of which, it's been seven or eight days since we last saw our eldest sister."

"I wonder how far she's progressed; is it still just a simple hug?"

"Speaking of hugging, it's amazing that Chief Luo doesn't get cold..."

Before Yangge could finish speaking, Patriot's shadow vanished from the spot.

Until the Patriot's figure completely disappeared from sight.

Yangge suddenly realized something.

I haven't even told my Patriot not to bring gifts when meeting Chief Luo, Luo Chen isn't the type to accept that.

On the other side.

Luo Chen is sending a telegram back to the army group Command Headquarters.
