Chapter 10 : The One Who Mocked Everyone
Chapter 10: The One Who Mocked Everyone
After finishing his words, Anonymous16 suddenly uploaded a photo.
The background of the image was relatively dim, seemingly an old wooden hut.
The subject of the image was a girl, tightly bound by thick vines, her entire body curled up in a corner.
Her face, which might once have been considered pretty, was now completely disfigured. Several cuts had been carved into her left cheek, blood flowing freely. Large patches of her arm were charred black, as if burned by fire.
Beneath her tattered clothes, there were barely any uninjured areas left on her body. Her expression was filled with terror. Her reddish hair showed severe signs of being torn out, as if a large portion had been forcibly ripped away.
［Anonymous16］: “See that? That’s their weakness. My luck sucked—I didn’t get any strong race, just three refugees. But when I asked, turns out they’re a family of three, hahaha. Doesn’t that make things easy?”
［Anonymous16］: “I tortured their daughter right in front of them. If she doesn’t obey, I cut off one of her fingers—or like earlier, gouge out one of her eyes.”
［Anonymous16］: “Guess what? Their Loyalty dropped into the negatives, hahaha… so what? To let their two daughters live even one second longer, those two pieces of trash are out there hunting like mad dogs for me. The Energy I’ve got now is already enough to recruit several more people!”
［Anonymous16］: “That idiot husband got severely injured trying to protect his wife. But they still don’t dare provoke me, because they know I’ll really torture their daughter, hahaha! Killing feels so damn good, so good!! Do you know how many times I’ve felt this rush these past two days? Hahahaha!”
［Anonymous17］: “?”
［Anonymous18］: “????”
［Hot-Fried Mature Woman］: “Damn you… you’re a beast. That’s a living human being!”
［Anonymous14］: “Human?”
［LetMeGoHome］: “Damn it, if this is real, you won’t die a good death!”
［Anonymous19］: “How did you even manage that? If that couple fought back or tried to take you down with them, wouldn’t you be finished?”
Faced with everyone’s shock, Anonymous16 didn’t restrain himself at all. Instead, as if hearing a joke, he unleashed a string of mocking remarks.
［Anonymous16］: “Take me down with them? Hahahaha, you’re killing me. You think everyone’s as stupid as you?”
［Anonymous16］: “A bunch of overgrown babies who haven’t even weaned yet—still haven’t figured it out? This isn’t Earth. There are no police, no laws, no moral bottom line. Here, whoever has power is the law!”
［Anonymous16］: “Chaos is coming. Most of you, in an apocalypse, would be bleeding-heart fools. And in chaotic times, bleeding hearts die first. People like you deserve to die! The kinder you are, the more you deserve to be killed!!”
Su Wen: “……”
Things had been relatively peaceful earlier, and then someone like this suddenly appeared—it genuinely shocked him.
“Damn…”
For a moment, the entire chat exploded.
What was even more absurd was that two other people actually came out to support this guy’s viewpoint.
Only after more than a minute…
［Reverse-Little-Lan-Liang］: “Bro, you might have a point, but I should remind you of one thing…”
［Anonymous16］: “Huh?”
［Reverse-Little-Lan-Liang］: “The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.”
［Anonymous16］: “Pfft!”
［Anonymous16］: “Sticks out? Hahahaha, you’re hilarious.”
［Anonymous16］: “What spotlight am I in? Even if anonymity is lifted in three days and real names are used, how would you even know who I am?”
［Anonymous16］: “All you can do is rage uselessly and spam insults in chat. What else can you do? I’m developing faster than all of you.”
……
Su Wen closed the chat window.
“Ridiculous.”
He recalled the photo he had just seen.
The battered appearance in the image alone was enough to cause intense discomfort.
Especially the pitiful look in the girl’s eyes…
“So this is human nature?”
Seeing someone like this openly mock everyone was deeply shocking.
In the past, he had encountered similar people online, but they mostly seemed like empty talk.
But now?
This person had actually done it—and even uploaded proof.
Su Wen realized that this world truly had no legal constraints.
And once many people lost restraint, they would turn into genuine demons.
“Looks like I need to develop with everything I’ve got.”
Only by becoming strong enough could he survive the potential threats ahead.
He not only had to guard against the native lifeforms of this world, but also be wary of other transmigrators.
He couldn’t trust anyone easily.
……
Su Wen reopened his Watch and checked on his subordinates.
Their Loyalty was still relatively stable.
Overall, it had dropped by 1 to 2 points.
He waited for nearly another half hour before the four small green dots representing his subordinates began returning.
About ten minutes later, they came back into view.
However, two of the warriors were severely injured—they were being carried back by their teammates.
“Good work. Get them inside quickly.”
Su Wen opened the trading interface and searched quickly, only to find that the only medical item available was bandages.
The price was 1 unit of Energy per roll.
“Buy.”
The moment he completed the transaction, a flash of light appeared, and the item materialized before him.
“Damn, it just teleports here?”
After briefly marveling at the Watch’s advanced technology, he immediately handed it over to the Exiled Sinners.
But in less than three minutes, one of the injured Exiled Sinners stopped breathing.
His injuries were too severe—he died.
The second one didn’t last much longer either.
“Unfortunate… they’re gone.” Barlow sighed softly, but didn’t show too much sorrow.
“My condolences.”
“I’m used to it. In our world, this is normal.” Barlow stood up.
He and another survivor were in relatively good condition.
And before returning, they had killed a “pangolin,” which had provided a significant amount of Energy.
That pangolin was likely the culprit behind the two deaths.
“We have a new companion now. You can rest well tonight—no need to push yourselves too hard.”
Su Wen glanced at his Energy reserves.
It was just enough to recruit another Black Wolf, so without hesitation, he summoned one.
Their overall strength should have increased.
However, the risk in this process was quite high.
If the warriors performed poorly, losses could easily occur—that is, the Energy gained might not compensate for the cost of casualties.
To change that, he needed to improve the exchange ratio.
Equipping wooden shields had clearly been effective, but against stronger enemies, it still wasn’t enough.
“Let’s hope the Black Wolves deliver.”
