Old man (eager): "Did you get what I want?!" ”

Child: "Here." ”

The old man (stretched out his hand to take it, flashed by the child): "Give it to me!" ”

Child: "What about the agreed conditions?" ”

Old man: (anxiously) "Let me take a sip!" ”

The child (dissatisfied): "Keep your word! ”

The old man (who took the bottle and took several gulps): "Yes! It's the best Waterga! ”

Child: (urging): "Tell me a story!" ”

The old man (took a sip of wine): "Let me tell you an unusual story!" That was when I was young......"

(The old man coughs and takes another sip of wine)

Child (impatiently): "Hurry up! ”

Old man: "Oh, oh, let me think about what the beginning looks like......"

Child: (angry) "......"

Old man (Khan): "Don't do that! Hey, I remembered! ”

The story told by the old man

That's when I was still holding my gun... Not convinced? I was a famous fast gunner when I was younger! At least hundreds of people have died at my hands! Really don't believe it? …… At least there are dozens of them...... Still don't believe it?! Show you my gun...... (I groped for a long time) Ah, yes! This is it! Magnum. 44 caliber revolver, quick loading, the safety of the gun is frustrated...... (The child listens with interest) just hold the trigger lightly...... (The child grabs the revolver and has to draw the gourd in the same way) No, no, no, you are still too young (to take back the pistol), listen to me finish the story first...... (child: less than ...... Uh, where did you just get there? …… Yes, about the glorious deeds of my youth...... Today's young people ...... (interrupted by an angry child) Oh, sorry, let's continue the story...... I'm at 35...... It may also be that at the age of 36, he felt that he was too old to be a guard, so he decided to come back to retire for the last time...... I chose to escort the weapons to Reading and then transport the gold back to New Reno...... When I went, it was calm, and I didn't even meet a wild dog on the road. On our way back, we were met with deathclaws, six full-grown deathclaws! In the darkness of the night, my companions were pierced and torn apart one by one like two cows waiting to be slaughtered. I had no choice but to run away with my life. The deathclaws were as orderly as the humans......

I've been standing in the wind and sand for a long time, motionless. Dust swept over me, as well as the tomb in front of me. The wooden cross on the grave had been blown down by the wind and sand and was buried like the people in the grave.

I moved slightly, and even though I was in the dark, I reached out and pulled the mask of the robe, so that my face was hidden under the robe, because something strange was heard from outside the valley.

I turned to the side and listened carefully.

Rapid wheezing, stumbling footsteps, the low roar of the beast......

In a sandstorm, even a modified mechanical left eye can't see far. I cautiously sneaked towards the source of the sound.

Two black shadows appeared in the wind and sand, one large and one small.

With a scream through the wind and sand, the small shadow rolled to the ground, and the large shadow raised its claws again.

I unconsciously let out a beastly roar, which, if judged by a deathclaw, would be two words:

"Stop."

The big black shadow suddenly stopped moving, began to walk towards me, and stopped in front of me.

Sure enough, it's a deathclaw, an adult ......

To my slight surprise, he spoke "human":

"Do you speak English?"

"Uh...... Yes. ”

"What are you?"

"What do you mean?"

"Where are you?!"

"Sorry, I don't know what you mean......"

The right claw slammed into my robe, grabbing it over my head. After dodging the killing, I reached out and grabbed his right paw with both hands, kicked his right armpit with both legs, and flew out. The position of the lungs of the deathclaw is similar to that of a human, and if he didn't anticipate my move, the worst outcome would be death on the spot.

But I stayed.

Even so, he crouched underground for a long time, panting.

I walked towards another dark shadow. As I expected, personal.

"Well, you're alright." I adjusted my electronic eye from passive infrared detection to faint visible light, and crouched down to look at the man.

In his 30s, his hair has begun to thin, he wears the leather armor that is loved by the average caravan bodyguard, and has three claw marks on the right side of his back, but the wound is not severe. He looked more like he was running out of strength.

"Ah...... Thank you, thank you... If it weren't for you, I'd be on my way with my companions......" He looked at me quizzically, struggling to sit up.

"What's wrong with the others?" Knowingly, I looked over to Deathclaw's place, where Deathclaw was gone.

"They're all dead...... Will you pull me up......"

"Why are Deathclaws trying to kill you?" I leaned forward and handed him my right hand so he could sit up. This movement brought his face and mine quite close.

"Ah~~ You-" He shook off my hand abruptly, and moved his hands and feet backwards with a quick movement. That's when I realized that half of my face wasn't covered by a headscarf.

It was the left side of my face, and that's when I realized that the wind and sand had been lapping against my unconscious left side. The faint light from the electronic eye was enough for him to see the left side of my mechanical face.

It was as if he would rather be pierced a hundred times by deathclaws than see my "honor" again.

Smile.

I turned my head and rewrapped the bandana that had just been torn by the claws, carefully hiding my face.

"Sorry to scare you, don't you matter."

"You-don't come! Monster...... You are...... What a monster! ”

Shook his head with a wry smile.

Because the left side of my body and larynx have been surgically modified, I feel like a robot both visually and audibly.

"Don't worry, I won't hurt you." Although it was an electronic voice, I comforted him very convincingly.

“…… But you...... He actually knocked down an adult deathclaw with his bare hands......"

He saw it...... But even if you don't see it, you can guess it.

“…… Even if it's a monster, at least I saved your life anyway. ”

"You...... Really human? As if curiosity had overcome fear, little by little, he approached me and looked at me with a timid and curious gaze.

"Well, I guess so......" I replied nonchalantly, for from the wind I heard a faint sound again.

"What's wrong?" He also seemed to sense something, and asked uneasily.

"They're back."

One, two, three...... The distance of the deathclaws was quite close, and the sound of the wind was interspersed with the gasps of beasts.

"We're going to die!" He was trembling all over, and his voice was full of despair. "No one will be able to go back alive to tell Sù Bixi what happened to the caravan!"

"Bixi...... Do you have a weapon, lend me it? ”

"My shotgun is off...... I only have one Magnum revolver...... But what's the use! ”

"Give it to me."

I took the revolver and flicked my left hand, exposing the chamber of the gun to examine the bullets.

There were six rounds of full ammunition, all of which were AP armor-piercing shells, and the safety of the gun was still frustrated.

With another flick of his left hand, the chamber of the gun "clicked" shut.

Also with the left hand, the thumb is stretched out at the bolt and the firing pin is opened.

I took another look at the infrared sensor on my left hand, and there were 8 red dots, two on the side of my jeep, and 4 in a fan line approaching.

The skillful cāo of the left hand of the machine made a qiē, and I didn't have time to explain, so I used my free right hand to push him dao, and at the same time turned around and issued a jǐng announcement.

Ignoring my jǐng notice, the dead claws continue to approach.

On the security line, I shot them in blood-red eyes. Hold the gun in your left hand, hold the firing pin between your index finger and middle finger in your right hand and make a quick toggle. Three gunshots rang out, and three fell. Although it is not real in the wind and sand, from the wails before they died, it can be determined that they were shot in the eye, pierced into the brain and died. My jīng's sniping slowed the movement of one of the close death claws slightly, and then he swung his claws down in a rage.

After flashing, I aimed at his right eye and shuffled closely, then immediately jumped backwards. The red glow changes from two dots to one dot and then disappears.

After taking a breath of relief, I raised my left hand, and there were still 4 red dots, two still next to my jeep.

I approached them slowly, and they neither moved forward nor backward, motionless.

Within the safe reach, as a sign of sincerity, I dropped the revolver and said in the gentlest tone possible: "I have no ill intentions, why should you ......"

After two low roars, a second wave of helpless and inexplicable attacks came at me.

I didn't have a chance of winning with my bare hands against two adult claws, and just in case, I threw the left wheel on the top of my right foot at the beginning, so my right hand quickly got the left wheel. Unfortunately, I don't have time to change hands.

Another gunshot rang out, and the one in front of him fell.

In the next moment, I was knocked away by the giant claws.

Tighten your body into a ball shape to reduce damage while holding the gun with both hands for the final shot. It would have been very difficult for me to hit Deathclaw's head in such a situation, especially since he had already covered his head and face with his left claw before he could strike.

So, in the wind and sand, I aimed roughly at the seams of the armor on his chest, relying only on my own feelings.

In response to my shè blow, at the same time as I landed, a bloody arrow scattered out of the wind and sand, and for a while all the wind and sand in front of me were dyed red.

Somewhat wolf-like, I slowly stood up in pain, bent over to the dying claw.

"Why...... Why do you have such wisdom to kill people......

I remembered some things from before, and I couldn't help but talk to myself.

"Heh... You're this... Monster... Be... Won't ......"

The man known as a monster from the mouth of the Dead Claw examines the corpses of the six Dead Claws again.

They seem to be somewhat different from normal dead claws, they are not as strong as wild dead claws, and their claws are not worn out much......

Suddenly I remembered the man, and from my left hand I saw that he had run a long way. I sat in the Jeep, and to my annoyance, the Jeep's flow control was pulled out alive by the Dead Claws.

The man was found on foot and found that he was unconscious from the loss of strength again. After simply stopping the bleeding for him, I carried him to the jeep leeward and put it away. Leave him some distance away, turn on the automatic pre-jǐng detection, and send out a distress signal, and then rest against the wind.

I've dreamed, I've had this dream three times.

In the midst of a huge unknown green sè plant, the earth is black and soft, and the sky is blue and clear. Some small creatures that look like the legendary jīng spirits walk through it. I looked up at the sky, and a small black dot appeared in the sky, and then it grew in size at a very fast pace.

Is it that bomb? I waited quietly for an answer.

Yes, as ever, I saw a dazzling white light. After that, his entire body was torn apart by the shockwave set off by the bomb, and his whole body turned into ...... Slice of ...... Broken iron sheets......

The sound of jǐng woke me up, and the surrounding area was still desert...... Desert full of sandstorms......

After waiting for a while, the sound of a motor was faintly heard not far away. Soon, the Rolls-Royce was gently docked beside me. In the wind and sand, a woman in her 20s got out of the car.

Long fiery red hair, blazing eyes.

"Did that man really kill six adult deathclaws by himself?! You're talking nonsense, old man! ”

The child pursed his lips in dissatisfaction and put on a stern posture as if threatening, "Obviously, you are lying!" ”

The old man tilted his head, shook the bottle, and handed the empty bottle back to the child. "Just think it's nonsense when I'm drunk."

As if venting his anger, the child raised the bottle in his left hand and wanted to throw it.

The old man's drunken eyes widened a little.

"Cage!" A dark figure in the corner spoke. "It's time for you to go home and sleep!"

"Mom......" The child quickly hid the wine bottle behind him, "I'll go back ...... now"

"Is it Mrs. Bisch?" At some point, the old man had already stood up.

"Yes, what's the matter?" She responded indifferently.

"This gun, I want to give it to your son......"

The child dropped the bottle, eagerly took the revolver, and immediately ran far away to find a target.

"Cage! …… The child...... "After sending his son away with a loving gaze, the same beautiful but reproachful gaze fell on the old man."

"Well, Mrs. Bisch...... Did you hear what I just said? The old man looked uneasily at the bottle on the ground marked with the coat of arms of the Bishi family, and said with a wince.

“……”

"The man said, when you see your wife, I will say ......hello to you on his behalf," said the old man, observing his words.

“…… Got it. Her expression seemed to be in a trance.

"Oh, no, if it's okay, I'll go first......" Before he could finish speaking, the old man immediately turned around and prepared to leave.

"Well...... Thank you. ”

When the old man heard this, he turned around with some surprise.

"Mrs. Pizza seemed to smile at me...... "The old man muttered to himself as he hurried to turn around and walk." How could it be, Mrs. Bisch is a notoriously cold beauty in New Reno, how could she smile at me, an old immortal! It must have been me drinking too much......"

If the old man had turned back again, he would most likely have seen a tear slip down the right cheek of Mrs. Bisch.
