Hvisland: A VR Colony Sim Game

Chapter 232 - 232 – Burn



Two women pulled Leva from a tree, then pushed her to her knees a few feet from her friends. Another woman gave Mila a hammer and several large iron stakes.

"Are you sure you want to use that to keep this woman from moving?" Krista grimaced. "Isn't that too much?"

"We have to give them a strong shock effect. This is so they can quickly tell where Tom really is." Mila answered, looking at the four stakes in her hands. "Untie her, then lay her down on the ground."

One of the women untied Leva. The other three held the red-haired woman's body while Krista and Mila just watched.

"Sorry, I really didn't want to do this, but as Mila said, I can't rest easy if Tom isn't dead." The woman who untied Leva whispered.

I could see that some of the women in our new neighbors had their eyes open. However, they just lay quietly on the ground with their hands tied, watching what was going on. Apparently, it was their guardian spirit who asked them to stay put.

"Please, think again, Mila." Helda hissed with trembling lips. "You and your friends will regret all this."

Mila did not answer, continued to stare at Leva.

"Thanks," Leva smirked as her hands freed. Suddenly she banged the heads of the two women who were holding her, then punched the other woman in the stomach.

Krista gasped, not knowing Eric was coming, who suddenly jumped up and kicked her with both feet, forcing her to fall and roll. Eric carried out the attack with his hands still tied.

However, it was nothing compared to what Mila had experienced. That woman was hit by Miro, who was also running fast. Mila's body was thrown quite a distance before finally landing face-first.

On the other hand, Leva was giving a combination of punches and kicks to the four women who had been holding her body. The four women were unable to counterattack and repeatedly groaned in pain from the combination of Leva's attacks.

"Do you need help?" Miro asked in a relaxed tone while stepping on the back of Mila's head. The woman who was prone on the ground couldn't do anything but squirm and try to free Miro's legs, which kept pushing her face to the ground.

"Not really!" Leva pushed one of the women into a large bonfire. The woman staggered with a body full of flames then ran fast. Unfortunately, his leg fell into one of the holes made by the digging centipede.

A terrible scream rang out loudly from the woman. She could do nothing but squirm wildly.

"Amanda!!!" Krista struggled to get up while holding her chest. The woman quickly ran to her partner while taking off her jacket. However, no matter how hard she tried to extinguish the fire on her partner's body, she couldn't do much.

The fire was getting bigger and devoured Mila's minion. And since there was nothing flammable around her, the fire didn't spread.

"Heelppp!!!" Krista continued to use her jacket to put out the fire, but instead, it caught fire, and she had to throw it away.

Finally, Krista's friend, Amanda, fell down with her still burning body.

"Heaaaah!!!" Mila slammed one of her enemies to the ground hard, then looked up at the gruesome sight. She had just crippled Mila's three minions. They could now only lie on the ground, groaning and clutching their wounds, while Leva still looked normal. Even the red-haired woman didn't seem breathless at all.

"Please untie me, Leva." Eric approached the woman and turned around.

After he was freed, Eric approached Krista, who now could only kneel in silence, watching the fire on her partner's still burning body. Mercilessly, Eric tugged at the back of the woman's shirt.

Krista tried to free herself, but she was suffocating and couldn't do anything about it when Eric pulled her near the bonfire.

"Please take care of them." Eric put Krista on the ground. "Let me release our friends."

The people in this group are still amateurs, as I thought. They made many mistakes. I won't have to wait for Yvonne and Tom at this rate.

The yellow guardian spirit appeared again, but three seconds later, it disappeared. I did ask Gwen to get in the way of that.

There's no need to talk anymore. I will never trust him again.

***

As Eric untied the hands of his friends, Leva continued to catch anyone who would escape, then taught her a few lessons until they were powerless again.

Now, the five women had their turn to sit leaning against a big tree. Their condition was pathetic. Their faces were covered in bruises and cuts. Meanwhile, Mila's nose was bent in the wrong direction and kept bleeding.

Leva crouched before the bound women, said in a relaxed tone. "Just so you know, we are very experienced in this kind of thing."

With an irritated face, Mila spat at Leva, but the red-haired woman was able to dodge easily.

"Please, this is just the work of a few people. You all may imprison them, but don't let us suffer the consequences too. We really didn't know they could do something like that." Helda made a wish with teary eyes.

Manu who was squatting beside the woman, shrugged. "Well, it's Gwen's decision to go through all of your heads."

Hearing Manu's words, Gwen took a deep breath, then patted her forehead.

Unfortunately, the current situation is not that easy. I whispered something to Gwen, making the blonde woman tense up even more.

"I only watched them briefly, but I think the bond between them is quite strong." Gwen's tone began to become unstable. "Suppose that one of them turns out to be evil and gets executed, then the others can hold a grudge against us. To make sure people have grudges or not, I have to check their minds again. Checking the minds of this many people is already impossible for me, let alone more than that?"

The atmosphere was immediately quiet. The people there were all looking at Gwen.

"So you're saying that in the end, it's all for nothing? Even with your mind-reading ability, you can't guarantee these women won't stab us in the back?" Miro asked.

Gwen didn't answer.

The women began to panic, some crying and some screaming hysterically. Meanwhile, Mila could only stare with her mouth slightly gaping.

"H-hey, you can read their minds gradually, right? You don't have to do it in one day, Gwen. You can check them out another day. The important thing is that we will lock them up." Alice spoke with trembling lips.

"You see how many of them?" Manu hissed. "If there are this many prisoners, if most – or maybe all of them have a grudge – we need wide confinement. In addition, a rebellion with a larger number of people is also possible. Whatever the scenario, we're fucked."

Kat, who was still rubbing Rex's head, joined in. "I've heard that there are experiments on psychics to read the minds of very many people. Reports of the study were not available, so many speculated it had a bad effect, even though the experiment was not carried out in one day. Are we going to risk letting Gwen read this many people's minds?"

Yes. If she read that many people's minds—and more so—then Gwen's mind wouldn't go back to the way it was. Maybe I'll lose Gwen.

"Come on." Seb said in a worried tone." You're not thinking about killing these women, are you?"

At first, the atmosphere was quiet again, but the voices of the women's screams grew hysterical in the end. Even Mila, who looked arrogant earlier, was now weeping like a child.

"Forgive me!!! I promise I won't do all that again!!!" Mila's voice was the loudest. "I don't want to die!!!"

If I wasn't Ruthless, I'm sure my own colonists would eventually be destroyed. Therefore, I chose to say the most cruel thing possible. "All of you, gather them to a place far from the colony, then burn them."

There's no particular reason why I chose the burning method. I felt it would be easier for my colonists than to behead them one by one.

My colonists split up to do their own thing, which was to drag the women and retrieve the barrels of oil that our new neighbor had.

Of course, it met resistance from Seb and Alice. Since they got in the way of this, I had to ask my colonists to tie them up.

"Please, don't do this, Son." Seb, who was kneeling on the ground, could only look down.

"Sorry, dad. It was the voice of the guardian spirit that told me to keep doing this." Eric sighed in front of Seb. "And I can see his points. We must not leave a single person who could possibly wreak havoc on this colony, be it directly or indirectly."

The women's cries grew louder as Miro and Manu began to spray the prisoners' bodies with blackish oil.

"It's all because of you, Mila!!!" Helda cried out in tears. "If only you chose silence!!!"
