Star of Civilization

This time, Joyner's words seemed to have some effect. There was a trace of surprise in the bewildered eyes of everyone, and some people began to mutter in a low voice, and then the small voices joined together.

"Who are you? Are you also on death row?" A young prisoner dared to ask cautiously.

"right."

Seeing that someone was finally willing to speak, Joyner nodded, with a hint of indifference on her pale face, "I'm a prisoner, but I want to participate in the ten-penalty competition to win freedom and for myself."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Everyone stared at Joyner like a monster, with complex expressions in their eyes, including doubt, surprise, puzzlement, and fear.

Fearing authority and not fearing morality is true at any time and anywhere, because it is one of human instincts.

Joyner looked over slowly, shook her head with a smile, and the smile on her face gradually froze. Wherever the gaze swept, the expressions on the faces of the prisoners seemed to indicate something.

She just sat there in a daze, and she didn't know how long she sat there.

"You have to know that the Ten Penalty Challenge... is not something that ordinary people can participate in." A thin, thin man with welts all over his body muttered, and those welts had scabbed over.

"Yes, I will definitely die." Another prisoner crawled out from the corner and said hoarsely.

"Ten-penalty challenge... The rules are simple, as long as you kill the opponent, but no one can win all the time, this is courting death."

"Many people participating in the competition are mutants and demihumans. They are monsters. The way to win the competition is to tear their opponents apart. It's terrible!"

"That's right, that's a dead end! The contestants are all outlaws. Even if you can win a few people, you will be killed by even scarier guys in the end."

Everyone put down their burdens, and immediately chattered and talked a lot.

"But," said an unkempt elderly prisoner in a low voice, "she killed the jailer with ease just now, so she seems to be quite capable."

"Well…"

The words of the elderly prisoners let everyone make a meaningful voice.

That's right, they don't know anything about Joyner's strength.

Everyone in the cell had seen Georgina overpower the guards with little effort. This formidable strength is by no means attainable by ordinary people. Now, I have to believe that her words may be true.

Joyner said nothing, just stared straight into the eyes of the elderly prisoner.

His hair was slightly thinning, and although he was not yet fifty years old, under the cruel torture of the Xuanming Gang, he looked like he was sixty or seventy years old. A few strands of half-white hair were covered with dirt, sticking to the face, the skin on the hands was loose, and a few obvious age spots could be seen.

In this era where human life is so trivial, the average life expectancy is very low, and people over 40 are rare. It can be seen that this old man had an extraordinary experience when he was young.

"Come here." Joyner seemed to have found the target, pouted at the old man, and pointed to the open space beside her.

The old man's cloudy eyes froze for a moment, and he bowed slightly. At this time, a young man suddenly rushed out behind him and stopped him, "Father, wait a minute!"

"how?"

All eyes turned to the young man in unison.

"She said that she can take people out? Do you believe this kind of thing? Are you crazy! She just killed a jailer, do you know what that means? This is going to lose his head!" The young man said His upper body trembled slightly, and he said with a hint of resentment, but he didn't dare to look Georgina in the eyes.

This old man and middle-aged man, originally a father and son belonging to the Chamber of Commerce in the Iron Castle area, was caught by the Xuanming Gang because they violated the ban of the Xuanming Gang and transported a batch of prohibited goods. Not only lost all the goods outside the city, but even a few bodyguards escorting the car died tragically, and only the two of them were taken as hostages.

After the incident, the Chamber of Commerce in Iron Castle contacted the local gangs and asked for their release. Under the mediation of several parties, although the Xuanming Gang agreed to pay the ransom, they opened their mouths. The ransom was too high.

Because they couldn't pay the ransom money, the Xuanming Gang threw the two men into death row in a fit of rage. According to the rules, if there is no answer, the execution will be carried out in public in a few days - dragged directly to the street and hanged in full view.

"Oh, you can see clearly, he is not dead yet, he just passed out."

Joyner stood up and said coldly. After speaking, she kicked the jailer lying on the ground. The jailer made a dull nasal sound and twitched slightly.

"It's really not dead!"

Everyone panicked and looked surprised, but they had a new understanding of Joyner's weird skills.

Seeing this, the young man curled his lips and said relentlessly, "Didn't you kill us too by doing this? After he wakes up, he will definitely yell and call other guards. In this way, we will be even more I can't tell!"

"So what? This matter has nothing to do with you, and I will handle it properly." Joyner said calmly.

"Hmph, how do you want to deal with it? It is also a serious crime for you to beat the jailer!"

The messy hair on the young man's forehead trembled, showing a little excitement, and he said bitterly, "Also, haven't you heard of continuous sitting punishment? As long as there is one person who wants to escape from prison, everyone detained here will be severely punished." punishment! At that time, none of us will be able to leave alive!"

Everyone was silent, shrinking back in fear, the young man was telling the truth.

Sit down punishment, also known as the ten-thousand kill rate, if one person makes a mistake, the other nine people will die together. This is the iron law of the Xuanming gang's prison, which is quite harsh and barbaric, and Joyner naturally doesn't know it.

"Okay, stop talking."

The young man wanted to say something more, but suddenly someone patted his shoulder, and he turned his head away, only to see the old man behind him shaking his head repeatedly.

"Don't belittle yourself, what's the use of saying this? It's already a fact, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com" A trace of fatigue suddenly flashed in the old man's cloudy eyes, and he said heavily, "You probably forgot, this is a death row ...Death is a matter of time."

Hearing the word "Death Row", the young man froze in astonishment.

The chaotic thoughts regained their sanity a little, and the arms that were raised excitedly also slowly dropped. He tried his best to adjust his breathing, but then, he couldn't restrain his emotional breakdown, his face was full of sadness, and his eyes turned red.

"So... what do you want to know about the ten-penalty challenge? I can tell you all about it." The old man turned his head and said to Joyner, and at the same time embraced his crying son towards his thin chest.

"Everything, competition rules, contestants, venues, wins and losses... as long as you know everything, tell me." Joyner's voice softened.

Nova was right, everyone in Hidden Sandcastle knew the ten punishments, even the prisoners here were no exception.

"I happen to know something. A few years ago, I organized contestants for the Iron Fort Chamber of Commerce." When the old man spoke, the wrinkled skin on his neck trembled slightly.
