Chapter 1355 - 431:
[The prison food had problems, but on that very day, Jin Yiming did not eat. Thanks to Jin Yiming’s reminder, many prisoners also chose not to eat.]
[A massive food poisoning incident caught the attention of the prison guards. They quickly identified the source of the food poisoning.]
On the eve of the Apocalypse Era, disorder had already begun to appear worldwide. To combat some strange and eerie creatures, or for the major nations to deal with potential catastrophes, local defenses were weak, and order was on the brink of collapse.
At this time, whatever happened in the prison, though it wouldn’t be dealt with strictly like during peacetime, if things got out of hand, it would still unsettle the warden.
The perpetrator was quickly found out.
The Judge watched this scene, unable to understand. It was simply like...
Heaven’s fate stood on Jin Yiming’s side.
Could it be, this is Wen Xishu’s cheating method?
Wen Xishu played a blank card.
But his consciousness had already begun to possess the small-time figures on the prison’s side.
...
...
A terrifying fist smashed Jin Yiming’s nose, causing it to cave in.
Due to Jin Yiming saving quite a few people not long ago, sparing many prisoners from food poisoning...
This led some prisoners to change their view of Jin Yiming, but not by much.
As long as Jin Yiming made a slight mistake, he would still get beaten up.
However, Jin Yiming’s situation remained dire because the newcomer—Wen Xishu—was nothing short of abusive in his beatings to Jin Yiming.
Almost every day, he would beat Jin Yiming to the brink of death.
Others did not have the chance to bully Jin Yiming anymore.
But Jin Yiming did not apply for a room change, nor did he write a report, nor did he tell the guards.
Nobody knew why.
And nobody dared to trouble the new prisoner.
After all, Wen Xishu was too ruthless. The kind who could single-handedly knock down everyone in the entire prison.
At this moment, Jin Yiming lay dying on the cold metal bed, struggling to ask:
"Is... is it enough?"
Wen Xishu did not smile, asked seriously:
"Do you think it’s enough?"
Jin Yiming shook his head, his expression pained:
"How much longer?"
Wen Xishu said:
"To kill your wife, then your brother, and even put you in prison for life, how many of you do you think it would take to overthrow such a force in reality?"
Jin Yiming didn’t know, only the flames of hatred erupted in his eyes:
"I... I don’t know, but even if a thousand of me can’t overthrow them, I will try."
"I won’t give up on avenging them."
Not long ago, after Wen Xishu had just possessed a prisoner and entered the prison, he knocked down all the prisoners.
He then told Jin Yiming everything, informed him that his life was being toyed with by mysterious forces, and that everything about him was designed.
He also told him, as long as he was willing, he could become very powerful and seek revenge against this force.
But it would require a price.
At this moment, Wen Xishu said:
"You’ve already died several times, but correspondingly, you are also continuously getting stronger, can you feel it? Today you can endure more than yesterday."
"A force that even a thousand of you can’t topple, then let ten thousand of you defeat them."
"If being beaten a thousand times can’t give you the power to defeat them, then be beaten ten thousand times right here."
"The apocalypse is about to arrive. You know it too, many strange things have been happening outside, even before you entered prison, this world has already started becoming chaotic."
"Very soon, everything you do will be lawful because there will be no laws. A world of survival of the fittest will descend, and those forces that harmed you, that killed your dearest, will become even more unbridled and savage in the apocalypse."
"Jin Yiming, you can muddle through in prison waiting to die, or you can have the power to surpass them."
"I will let you experience near death every day, but I can guarantee, each time you come close to death, it’s a rebirth."
"Or have you become afraid? Are you giving up?"
Jin Yiming shook his head resolutely:
"I will not give up, I absolutely won’t give up. I want them dead!"
Wen Xishu felt Jin Yiming’s gaze finally seemed like it was promising.
He did not intend to let Jin Yiming abandon his hatred and become compassionate.
The acquired morality is situational, for Jin Yiming, in the Apocalypse Era, grievances should be avenged, and enmity returned with revenge.
"Do not forget your hatred. Do not forget your brother and lover. If even you give up, they are truly dead."
These words obviously stirred Jin Yiming.
He painfully sat up:
"What should I do?"
Wen Xishu said:
"Besides physical training, you also need knowledge, you need to constantly read, learn, and obtain as much useful knowledge as possible."
"If you want to persist in your revenge, from this moment on, your fate trajectory has already changed."
"You will not deteriorate in prison and become a part of evil."
"What you will face is a massive organization, in the future, you may face even more forces."
"Brute force alone is not enough. Jin Yiming, don’t disappoint me."
Wen Xishu no longer spoke much. He had Jin Yiming learn not to deal the Warden’s Bible card.
The card’s effects took too long to manifest. He just truly felt Jin Yiming needed to learn.
To Jin Yiming, Wen Xishu was a true master. Someone powerful enough to escape prison.
