Worried that Joel might harm Zeke in her absence, Lacey refused to enter alone.
She countered, “No, we will go in together.”
Zeke reassured Lacey, “Don’t worry, Lacey. They have admitted that it was just a misunderstanding. We used to be colleagues. Now that we meet again, it would be nice to have a chat.”
After much persuasion from Zeke, Lacey entered alone reluctantly.
The moment she went in, a subordinate handed Joel his stun baton.
Stun baton in hand, Joel smiled diabolically. “Mr. Williams, it’s time we settle our scores of old and new.”
Turning on the stun baton, sparks ignited randomly with a crackling noise.
“If you beg me on your knees now, perhaps I might show you some mercy. Else, I’m going to turn you into a roast piglet!” Joel laughed hysterically.
Shaking his head, Zeke let out a sigh. “What a useless dog you are to even dare threaten your owner. You need to learn your lesson.”
Joel glared back fiercely. “F***, who are you calling a dog? You seem tired of living already.”
Brandishing the stun baton, he thrust it at Zeke.
Meanwhile, the latter reached out and grabbed onto it easily.
Realizing his mistake, Joel retracted the baton by reflex, but Zeke’s grip was so strong it felt like a vice.
Despite how much he pulled, the baton wouldn’t budge.
Joel couldn’t help but gasped in shock at how strong Zeke was.
Nevertheless, he quickly regained his senses.
This is not an ordinary baton, it’s a stun baton for God’s sake. Grabbing one with bare hands is the equivalent of suicide!
Letting out a hysterical smile, he turned on the switch on the baton.
As the electricity crackled, it flowed into Zeke’s arm and they could see blue lightning flickering all around it.
Zeke didn’t show any signs of pain. Instead, he was calm as a cucumber. He even grinned at Joel.
His reaction sent a chill down Joel’s spine.
What’s going on? The baton generated three hundred and sixty volts of electricity, which was way higher than the thirty-six volts that the human body could handle.
When one was being electrocuted, one would feel immense pain and tremble endlessly even if one weren’t cooked.
Why isn’t Zeke reacting in any way?
Is the baton malfunctioning?
Zeke quickly demonstrated that the baton was fine as he placed his other hand on Joel’s shoulder.
Bzzt... Bzzt... Bzzt!
A massive surge of electricity jumped into Joel’s body, causing it to tremble violently. His hair stood up while he foamed in his mouth.
At that moment, only one thing flashed across his mind. The stun baton was working fine!
It wasn’t until Joel’s hair started to smoke and his face turned black that Zeke released his hand.
Thump!
Collapsing to the ground, Joel’s body continued to twitch non-stop. The white foam had spewed all over his clothes.
It became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Everyone starred at Zeke as if he was a monster.
F***, is this guy made of concrete? How else could he withstand such a huge electric shock?
If he was made of concrete, how did he transfer the current to Joel?
This is just crazy shit!
Why didn’t they realize he was this crazy when he used to work here?
Panicking, they couldn’t help but back off.
Meanwhile, Joel regained his consciousness. However, his body was still twitching, and it hurt like crazy.
He stammered loudly, “Security... kill him... quick!”
The security guards advanced toward Zeke cautiously as they tightened their grip on the batons.
Letting out a nonchalant smile, Zeke kicked Joel in the stomach.
