PDLP Chapter 219 Gong Jingming
Chapter 219 Gong Jingming
Gong Jingming's pupils contracted, and he subconsciously looked at the little spider in his hand, suddenly understanding what she had done today.
She brought this monster here to conduct an experiment for her plan.
She's going to use the Black Tide to attack the base!
"Are you crazy? Why did you attack the base?" Gong Jingming said in a low voice, a crack finally appearing on his indifferent face.
“I have my reasons, Gong Jingming. I’m just asking you, I want you to attack the base, can you do it?” she asked forcefully.
Gong Jingming pursed his lips, his expression cold and serious, clearly a silent rejection.
He would not, and has no reason to, do such a thing.
This Gong Jingming is unyielding and stubborn; he would never entrust anything to Miao Yin.
—Just like Tu Hao back then.
Miao Yin exhaled a damp, cold breath, but the raging fire burned even more fiercely.
"I'm losing my patience."
She said.
The next second, she kicked and broke Gong Jingming's leg.
A chilling sound of bones cracking rang out, and Gong Jingming cried out in pain, kneeling on the ground. The little Spider-Man also fell to the ground.
The white snake swayed its tail and draped it over the little spider-man to prevent it from escaping.
"I'll give you one more chance to answer." Miao Yin's eyes were dark and unfathomable, like two will-o'-the-wisps in a graveyard.
Gong Jingming was in so much pain that his fingers almost dug into the ground, and his face turned pale, but he still stubbornly gritted his teeth and refused to make any more embarrassing noises.
Miao Yin tilted her head slightly. "Why are you silent?"
After a long pause, she said, "You always seem to fall silent easily. Why? Is it an invisible form of resistance? I don't like it. You make my words fall to the ground. Gong Jingming, I'm not happy, so you need to change this habit."
Gong Jingming was breathing heavily. He tried to avoid the leg and trembled as he got up.
So Miao Yin walked around him and kicked him to the ground again. She lowered her eyes and watched him clutch his stomach, sweating profusely from the pain. Strands of his blue-gray hair clung to his face, making him look incredibly vulnerable.
She crouched down, grabbed his hair, lifted him up, and held him directly in front of her, speaking in a comforting tone without a trace of pity:
“Gong Jingming, I should treat a summoner as talented and insightful as you better and take things slowly. But there’s no time now, so let’s hurry up. Don’t worry, someone has already tried it for you. I’m very experienced.”
The common problem among those with superpowers is psychological distress. Just like Yan Shuzhou back then, a summoner who has been tormented and suppressed cannot summon a powerful being.
A summoner who loses their true self becomes a useless person.
Fortunately, Miao Yin was adept at manipulating these bottom lines of human nature, so she never cared.
Gong Jingming coughed weakly, his face pale and trembling with pain. Yet, when his deep eyes met hers, they showed no fear, shining with an astonishing brightness that gave rise to a stunning beauty.
Miao Yin grabbed his bluish-gray hair, as if she were desecrating a painting, and softened her tone, praising him like a collector encountering a treasure:
"Upon closer inspection, you're actually quite good-looking. That's fine, so when you kneel down and beg for mercy, you won't look too bad, and I can still restrain myself from killing you."
As she said this, she couldn't help but laugh a few times, as mischievous as a child.
Then she let go, picked up the little spider, and said, "Lady White, go collect the crystal cores, we're going back."
"His-"
The White Snake Lady grew larger, and her serpentine nature made her very sensitive to anything unusual. She slithered around and quickly collected all the fallen crystal cores in the vicinity.
Miao Yin, on the other hand, skipped and hopped around in the ashes, humming a little tune. Her red dress drew round arcs with her movements, and the little spider was held in her hand, not daring to move.
After Bai Niangzi finished collecting the crystal cores, Miao Yin quickly knocked Gong Jingming unconscious and then threw him onto the snake's back.
The flames died down, the streets returned to silence, the moon silently sank below the horizon, and the sun struggled to peek out a sliver of morning light, only to be obscured by the dark fog.
They left the scorched earth in the dim light.
……
In the small manor villa, Miao Yin dragged the unconscious Gong Jingming into the hall.
Despite being over 1.8 meters tall, she handled him like a piece of cotton, carrying him away with ease.
Beyond the kitchen and dining room, at the end of the corridor turning to the right, a small, locked door stands quietly.
A European-style lamp hung on the snow-white wall. Miao Yin took out the key from inside and opened the door.
A blast of cold air hit me, followed by the rumbling vibrations of the generator.
But the engine wasn't here; it was next door. The sound just drifted over, muffled and somewhat irritating.
Miao Yin threw the person on the ground and reached out to pull the light on the wall.
"Snapped."
The cold white chandelier lit up, and the pale light revealed everything in the small room.
It was a very monotonous room with only a small iron bed and a pool in the distance. On the inner wall, there were terrifying instruments of torture, each one brand new.
Miao Yin hadn't touched these things in a long time.
What led you to come into contact with these things in the first place?
Ah, I remember now, it's Tu Hao.
That year, the Kuroshio Current raged, and to avoid the disaster, they took refuge in a tall apartment building and chose separate rooms.
The place where Miao Yin lived was the largest single-story building in the area. Although it had become dilapidated due to the apocalypse, it was still a fairly nice place to live.
Tu Hao went to open the doors one by one to make sure the rooms were safe, while Miao Yin tapped on the wall outside out of boredom.
Until she tapped into an empty cavity.
Unlike Tu Hao, she didn't bother to find the switch to go inside. After discovering the cavity, she simply blasted the wall apart.
The loud noise startled Tu Hao, and when he arrived, he saw Miao Yin standing among them with a curious expression.
His face immediately darkened.
Because behind that wall was a red, secret room, filled with torture instruments and inappropriate drugs, and a rotting, unrecognizable corpse lay beside the sofa.
That year was the year when Miao Yin was most reckless in her tormenting people.
—It was also the year that Tu Hao joined forces with Ji Yuanzhou to rebel.
Miao Yin's body is different from ordinary people. She finds it difficult to understand other people's world, so she is extremely keen to explore the limits of her subordinates in all aspects, especially Tu Hao after his body was enhanced.
“It’s not good to always be so reckless. I only have a few of you under my command. Oh, right, I haven’t punished you yet.” She said slowly, toying with the boning knife in her hand.
"I've never seen these things before, so... why don't you help me learn them one by one?"
The tiger was at the age when it was sharpening its teeth, and it happened to encounter the mountain rocks.
It just so happened that the Black Tide had been raging for three months, during which time no one could stand up and come out of the flat.
From then on, Ji Yuanzhou was left with a disability. Along with him and seven or eight other ability users, they no longer dared to look up at her. Many of their injuries only improved after they found a healing ability user.
Even Tu Hao, the strongest among them, crawled out with broken bones, his dignity almost shattered, and the slivers of sunlight filtering through the curtains turned into dew in the desert.
Ji Yuanzhou no longer dared to be alone in a room with Tu Hao. Even the slightest question from Miao Yin was enough to make him kneel down and tremble, proving that he had not betrayed them.
Miao Yin had now learned how to push people to their limits without killing or driving them insane.
"Click."
She locked the door.
