Chapter 61: Barricade and robbery
Lowe, who was accustomed to running to get around, didn't know how to drive, and he didn't want to be exposed to the radiation of the wilderness, so he borrowed a car from Heidi and a driver.
This is the right that Lowe should have as Heidi's sole dependent.
This driver is old enough, and generally old enough people talk a lot, and he is no exception.
"Dear Adeptus, I wonder you don't know how to drive, or if you don't want to waste your energy on something as boring and monotonous as driving a car. After all, a journey without traffic lights is too boring. ”
Luo didn't speak, he wasn't sure if he would be able to take Yi to Nirvana Town on time after he threw the old man in the car out.
After all, it seems that Gao Yi, who is almost as high as him now, is no longer suitable to stay on his back.
Moreover, he did not know the way to Nirvana.
"Training camp is a great place to learn a lot of useful things that can be used to save your life on the battlefield."
The old man who drove the car seemed to be familiar with the Cardivan family's training camp, but it could also be just nonsense.
After all, staying in the same car as Lo, who doesn't seem to get along well, talking is the only way to get closer to each other and relieve awkwardness.
"They'll teach knowledge, knowledge that can only be obtained from books, right?"
Lo stroked Yi's head, caressing her to dispel the uneasiness that she was about to face in her new environment.
"Of course! This is the most basic! After all, words and knowledge are the universal carriers of all skills that can be passed down. Although not the only one, it is definitely the main thing! ”
The old man's chief-like nagging didn't interfere with his work, and the off-road vehicle in which Lowe rode was speeding through the gray-white wilderness.
The elderly driver is clearly aware that one more second in the wilderness is one more danger of death.
"Stop!"
Luo suddenly spoke, and the emotionless voice made the old man who was driving couldn't help but shiver, and stepped on the brakes as soon as possible.
The buggy stopped in the wilderness, the doors opened, and Lowe stepped out.
Seeing Luo standing in front of the off-road vehicle and staring ahead, Yi also got up and was about to get out of the car, but was stopped by Luo.
"Stay still until I get back."
Luo whispered to Yi who was sitting in the car.
Yi nodded obediently, and she smiled sweetly at Luo, still bright and silent.
Luo looked at the muddy and rugged dirt road ahead, and the thistles that covered the road with a black sheen and covered the entire road.
Dark, brand new thistle.
Luo had never seen such a thing as thistle, but it quickly occurred to him that these things, which had been deliberately sprinkled here and had sharp spikes, should easily puncture the tires of an off-road vehicle.
There was a slight metal clash on both sides of the road ahead, the sound of a bolt pulling.
The presence of a bolt indicates that the opponent is not holding an advanced, automatic firearm that can fire continuously, but a rifle that is old-fashioned.
Just like the bow on Walker's back, people who are still obsessively using primitive weapons definitely have good reasons to use it.
No one would joke with their lives and the wilderness.
Instead of retreating into the car, Lo stepped over.
The farther away you are from the other party with a gun, the easier it is to die.
Luo guessed correctly, the other party was indeed holding a backward gun, a shotgun, but it was not worn. The gun stands out because it's rugged enough and big enough.
The man holding the gun was a man who was not too old, and should be a few years older than Lowe. His bushy beard reminded Lowe of Bob Dupont, the tavern owner at Alec's base, and the eye-catching shotgun in his hand reminded Lowe of old Pat who had withheld his own food.
The muzzle of this shotgun is thick, and the black, non-reflective material is similar to the material of the Dark Squad's titanium dagger. The owner of the gun did not point the muzzle of a fist at Lowe, but at his remaining left eye.
Are all those who like to use the weapons of the old times one-eyed?
Luo looked at the man with blindfold on his right eye and his left eye on the muzzle of his black hole, and he was squinting and trying to look into the barrel of the gun, not worrying at all whether the shotgun, which was already comparable to the "small cannon", would go off.
He's missing an eye, and the other is under his own gun, so now is definitely a good time to kill the other party.
But Lowe didn't move.
Because Lo's head was against several improved assault rifles made by the New Age Family.
The other party is not alone, he has enough accomplices.
"Hey, Steven, can you stop looking? It's too late to take a look after this kid is dealt with, we swear we don't have the slightest interest in your gun! I won't rob you of this baby! ”
One of the accomplices holding a gun to Lotin whispered to the one-eyed man who was still sitting on top of a hideous locomotive, looking at the hole of his gun.
"I ordered it at a great price, and of course I'll have to see if the blacksmith who slammed the door cut corners! You can solve it, but this time I have to take the lion's share, I want forty percent! ”
There were four people on the other side, and the one-eyed dragon himself took 40 percent, and the rest could only get 20 percent each.
Such a simple account, of course those accomplices who put a gun to Luo's head will count.
"Steven, it's a bit inappropriate for you to take so much without moving, right?"
Luo felt that the other party seemed to have mistaken the point.
Looking at their posture, it seems that they are trying to make money, and of course, they may also be killed. But whether it is for money or for life, you must first ask for your own opinion.
"It's really long-winded, if it weren't for the fact that the family account was not allowed during this internal training, do you think I would have been blowing in this stinking wilderness with you for a few stinky money? Or do you think you four pieces of waste can handle him? ”
The choked companion glanced at the man named Steven with dissatisfaction, a flash of resentment in his eyes, but he didn't say anything more.
Some people are born in good families, and they can't afford to be provoked by a dependent.
"Hey, man, I've been squatting here long enough, how many gold coins do you have to take out quickly, and I'm still in a hurry to go back to Nirvana Town. Of course, if you drop by, I can also give you a section. ”
Steven's last remaining eye finally removed from the muzzle of the gun, leaning his gun against the tall motorcycle with its mottled tires, slapping his big hand on the ass a few times, and whistling as he strode towards Lowe.
The man named Steven was not tall, only a few points taller than Lowe, but he appeared to be muscular. His muscles weren't developed in a wilderness full of paranormals, but as he walked, each muscle slowly and regularly wriggled like mutated earthworms clinging to his skin.
Luo remembered the tenth-order super-level super-powerhouse who had blocked the door of the third floor of the abandoned nuclear power plant, that door.
Steven, who strode towards him, gave Lowe a striking resemblance to the adequately defensive Adept.
A super-tier ability with a body enhancement and a thermal weapon.
Of course, Luo wouldn't tell the other party how many gold coins he had, because he never seemed to have gold coins on him. In fact, with the exception of the titanium dagger that Panis had given him, and the spur he had received from the rotten wolf mercenary squad, Lowe had never carried any metal objects on him.
No, there's another metal object, and it's in Luo's arms at the moment.
Steven was lucky enough to quickly find the only metal object in Luo's arms.
Heidi gave Lo a mechanical war beast, the Eater II Metal Orb.
Steven's face became quite exciting, he knew this inconspicuous little metal ball with Luo body temperature.
"That ......, you go to the car over there and search for anything valuable!"
Steven hesitated to take his hand back from Lowe's arms and didn't take any of Lowe's belongings. He turned back to his locomotive and picked up his extraordinarily large shotgun again.
Only Steven is from a big family, and the others are all dependents of the Cadivan family, and Steven's status as a tenth-order super-level ability gives him enough power to speak.
Several people with guns pointed at Luo's head walked towards the SUV in which Yi was riding.
