Chapter 5: Gunfire
Mia nodded, but immediately shook her head.
At the waste terminal, there is one thing that is most scarce, and that is food, and those displaced people who do not want to produce and only rely on scavenging for a living are basically hovering on the brink of starvation.
Su Xiao took out a few compressed biscuits in his arms, which were the emergency food he carried with him.
He had observed that there was a forest in the distance from the 'scrap terminal', that he had a gun in his hand, and that he did not bother with food.
Mia took a compressed biscuit with some trepidation, she had never seen anything like it before.
Under Su Xiao's guidance, Mia peeled off the compressed biscuit and took a careful bite.
"It's delicious~."
The girl, who had been hungry for a day, devoured it.
"Your name is Mia, take me out of here, these cookies are yours."
Miya, who had eaten up the compressed biscuits in her hand, stared straight at the compressed biscuits in Su Xiao's hand, and swallowed her saliva.
"Yes, but you can't hurt me."
Su Xiao didn't answer the other party, but turned out of the dilapidated house, and Mia, who had recovered a little, followed closely.
"Where are you going? You're not a resident of the Scrap Terminal, are you? โ
Su Xiao's footsteps suddenly stopped, a cold glint appeared in his eyes, and he threw a compressed biscuit in his hand on the ground, and then stomped on it.
"Take me out of here, don't ask anything else."
If the girl Mia showed any abnormality, Su Xiao's tight hand would be aimed at Mia's forehead.
Mia was taken aback by Su Xiao's actions and took a few steps back.
"Okay~, okay."
Mia didn't dare to say any more, and walked briskly ahead.
"Take me to the entrance to the Kingdom of Goa."
Su Xiao looked around vigilantly, and from time to time he could see the homeless people with fierce eyes, and after those homeless people noticed the gun in Su Xiao's hand, they immediately put away their greedy gaze.
Recalling the information obtained in the anime, Su Xiao began to think about the next countermeasures.
The so-called 'waste terminal' is actually a large garbage dump, because the 'Goya Kingdom' dumped a large amount of household garbage outside the city, which is why it has today.
The outcasts were originally just residents of the 'Kingdom of Goa', and they were driven here either for serious crimes or to offend the nobles.
The garbage decays and produces a toxin-laden green smoke that spreads in the 'waste terminal' and erodes the lives of displaced people all the time.
The most obvious manifestation is that Su Xiao's HP has dropped from 100% to 98%.
There are no doctors, no food, crime and disease are rampant in the 'scrap key station', there is no lawlessness here, everything depends on the strength of the power.
Through Mia's lead, Su Xiao quickly walked out of the 'scrap terminal' and came to a high wall.
The high wall of black stone towered, and a small city gate appeared in Su Xiao's sight.
"This is the only way to go, the 'Goa Kingdom' has a law, and the homeless cannot enter the city, and if they find it, they will be executed."
Although Mia was talking to Su Xiao, her eyes kept staring at the compressed biscuit in Su Xiao's hand.
Throwing the compressed biscuits to Mia, Su Xiao no longer paid attention to the other party, and Mia also ran away directly, leading the way for Su Xiao just because of the temptation of food, and there was no other reason.
The gates of the 'Kingdom of Goa' were wide open, and several guards stood on either side of the gates.
This is just a side door, which is used to facilitate the dumping of garbage.
Although the guards seemed to be lazy, their eyes flashed from time to time, and these guards should often kill people, killing those outcasts who tried to break into the city.
Su Xiao hid aside, not in a hurry to enter the city, he was waiting for the opportunity.
It's impossible to fight hard with those guards, the inhabitants of the pirate world are extremely strong, and the girl Mia was able to return to normal in a short period of time after being hit hard by him, which made Su Xiao vigilant.
Su Xiao guessed that the attributes of those guards were at least above ten points, and maybe even higher.
One hour, two hours, until three hours later, it was already noon, the temperature rose rapidly, the weather became hot, and the opportunity that Su Xiao was waiting for finally appeared.
A horse-drawn carriage full of household garbage drove out of the city, and the pungent rancid smell spread far and wide, and the guards did not look at the carriage at all, but subconsciously retreated a few steps.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do you need a routine check-up?"
The coachman stopped the carriage, a little frightened by the guards.
"Hurry up, it stinks."
The guard waved his palms in annoyance, without the slightest intention of checking.
Su Xiao, who was in the distance, raised his eyebrows after seeing this scene, and quickly followed the carriage.
After the carriage went deep into the garbage mountain, it found an open space and began to dump the garbage, and the coachman, who was still submissive before, had an extra dagger on his waist, and the law of the jungle was the rule of the 'waste terminal'.
Lighting a cigarette to hide the stench, the coachman picked up his shovel and began to sweep the stained wagon.
When the coachman was busy sweating, Su Xiao came behind the coachman quietly like a wild cat, and just as Su Xiao was about to knock the coachman unconscious, he stepped on a half-broken glass under his feet.
"Click." There was a crisp sound, and the coachman's body shook.
Su Xiao was also surprised, in this dirty 'waste terminal', there was a deep layer of garbage under his feet, and it was very soft to step on, and he couldn't notice anything under his feet at all.
But at this time, the arrow had to be fired, so Su Xiao rushed forward directly.
The coachman was not a good person, so he turned around and pulled out the dagger on his waist and stabbed directly at Su Xiao.
The coachman's vicious expression made Su Xiao understand that the other party wanted his life.
Su Xiao's gaze began to become cold, in this mission world, either you die or I die, mercy to the enemy is cruelty to yourself.
Raising the flintlock pistol in his hand, Su Xiao aimed the muzzle of the gun at the coachman's head.
If an ordinary person was pointed at a gun, he would definitely stop or retreat immediately, but this driver was different, he actually pounced faster.
Su Xiao pulled the trigger expressionlessly, the hammer behind the gun body hit the flint, sparks sputtered out, the gunpowder in the chamber was ignited, and a large amount of gunpowder was ignited in the small space, bursting out with powerful kinetic energy, and with the fire and smoke overflowing, the projectile in the chamber erupted.
"Bang."
Thick smoke rose, a pungent smell of gunpowder spread, and a lead bullet directly sank into the coachman's head, and the coachman's forward figure came to an abrupt halt, and he was directly knocked back two meters away, and his body convulsed twice before dying.
[Hint: You killed the Black Marketeer]
[Your talent 'Soul Eater' is activated, permanently increasing mana by 5 points, and the existing mana is 65.] ใ
ใYou get a treasure chest (whiteใ
[This is your first time killing the enemy, the savings space is open (2 square meters), and after returning to the reincarnation park, the savings space can be upgraded with park coins. ใ
The hint of the reincarnation paradise let Su Xiao know that this was not a coachman at all, but a black marketeer, who should be using the identity of the coachman to do some kind of trading in the scrap terminal.
After the death of the black marketeer, a wooden box floated above the corpse, the whole box was white, only the size of the palm of a hand.
Su Xiao tried to pick up the wooden box floating in the air, although it was only the size of a palm, it was heavy to handle.
[Treasure Chest (White), Yes/No Opening]
Su Xiao didn't open the [Treasure Chest], but put the [Treasure Chest] and the [Worn-out Flint Musket] into the storage space.
With a movement of his mind, the [dilapidated flintlock pistol] appeared in his hand, and Su Xiao was very satisfied with the new storage space, which was a very practical function. If this ability is used well, it will help him a lot to complete his tasks.
It's not safe here, so Su Xiao didn't choose to open the [Treasure Chest (White)], in case the treasure chest is opened, give him a golden light, then he will be in danger, and now the first thing is to enter the capital city of the 'Goya Kingdom'.
Su Xiao took off his shirt and changed into the clothes of the black market merchant.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Xiao fell directly into the water on the ground, the stench came, and his clothes and cheeks were stained with a large amount of sewage, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
Sitting in front of the carriage, Su Xiao controlled the horses a little rusty and marched towards the city.
At this time, he was holding a dagger in his hand, which was the dagger in the hands of the black marketeer, but this dagger was a little different from what he imagined.
