Chapter 64: Wells
Wells fell silent when he heard the name 'Levi'.
He was still in the hospital two days ago when the mechanical creature rioted. In fact, his injuries have basically recovered, but the psychological wounds are not so easy to heal.
Cui He's death hit him too hard.
Cui He was his playmate and brother from childhood to adulthood, but he died because of his recklessness, impulsiveness, and stupidity.
He knew that if he strictly followed the rules of the guild, he would be severely punished, and if he hadn't had a respected grandfather on his head, these punishments would have fallen on him without leakage.
But the guild's punishment could be avoided, but the self-punishment from his heart couldn't. He always remembered the gray face of Cui He when he was pronounced dead by the doctor, and he always remembered the hateful gaze of his other friend Aru when he looked at him.
For the first time, he began to reflect on himself, and he felt that he was really wrong.
His will began to weaken, and the pain in his heart continued to torment him.
If it weren't for the cyborg riot that had reached the district hospital, forcing him to fight, he didn't know how long he would have been depressed.
The day before yesterday, after a hard battle in the district hospital, he persevered until the arrival of guild support and repelled the cyborg monsters besieging the hospital. After that, he teamed up with no one, took his gloves with him, and began the hunt alone. All the depressed will, all the painful torment, turned into full anger and vented on the heads of those monsters.
Last night, he happened to come to the vicinity of Minggao Community, and he ran into Zheng Zaishun and his party from the Iron Cross Avenue escorting a group of civilians to the refugee resettlement camp.
If he ran into someone from his guild, he would have turned around and leftβhe felt that he had no shame in facing his guild people.
However, since he was someone he didn't know from other guilds, and he had to escort a large number of civilians, he was really short of manpower, so he stayed.
As a result, before the refugee team set off, a group of enemies with a small scale but a half-mechanical flesh giant came to the entrance of the community, and directly blocked them inside.
The armed people among the refugees, Jung Jae-soon's hunter team, and him, along with a few people who claimed to be traveling, but were very strong, set up a defensive line at the gate of the community, repelled several attacks by those cyborg creatures, and barely saved their lives.
But the situation is not getting better. There are four hunters in Zheng Zaishun's team, only he is a master who has opened the gene lock, and the other three are all extreme level people. And among the five travelers, there is only one person who specializes in the power chain.
With the strength of the two of them, even if they work together, they may not be able to handle the flesh giant, let alone such a semi-mechanized creation that has been transformed very successfully.
As a result, they could only use the terrain to organize a defensive line and defend hard.
Last night, the defense line was almost breached. Zheng Zaishun and one of the strongest of the travelers, named Wilde, teamed up to wound the flesh giant, and only managed to stabilize the community's defenses.
But in that battle, Jung Jae-soon's Hunter Squad and Traveler Squad suffered heavy losses.
There are two extreme level travelers, who were hit by hundreds of bullets from a revoltable machine gun and a K5 semi-automatic rifle, and no matter how strong his body is, he can't bear it, and he is seriously injured on the spot, and then he dies due to medical inability to keep up. There was also an extreme hunter who was smashed in the chest by the heavy hammer of the flesh giant, and his entire chest cavity turned into mud, and he died on the spot.
At the same time, the self-defense militia, which originally numbered more than 70 people, also died more than 50 people.
One-third of the combat power is over.
Of course, there are also results. Originally, the flesh giant led two infantry platoons and a considerable number of cyborg hounds, and after the fight, only half of them were left.
But despite this, the situation is still very bad. In fact, if it weren't for the arrival of the support team from the union, they would have been ready to break out - break out alone, abandon the refugees.
This is something that can't be helped, the hunter is not a soldier, and one of Jung Jae-soon's team has already died, and he and the other two don't want to lose their lives here for the sake of those refugees.
At the end of the day, for hunters, it's just a commission.
On the contrary, the travelers were much more resolute than the hunters, and they were ready to fight the refugees here to the end.
Wells didn't plan to go, and if it was a punishment from heaven, he was willing to accept it with an open heart.
He decided to fight to the end.
However, the situation has changed again with the arrival of a support team from the Clover Division.
Jung Jae-soon had a smile on his face, which had been serious all day, and so did the traveler named Wilde.
Hope was rekindled, but Wells was not happy.
His mood was quite complicated, and to be honest, he didn't want to see Levi.
Wells didn't know how to face Levi, let alone the nightmare he had planted a few days earlier.
While he was thinking, he was tapped on the shoulder.
Turning his head, he saw Jung Jae-soon's square face.
"What are you thinking?"
"Nothing." Wells waved his hand.
Jung Jae-soon was unimpressed. In the past day, he has a great appreciation for Wells' quality. His iron fists are very powerful.
The Hunters' Guild of the Iron Cross is also very famous, but among the young people of this generation, there are not many who are as good as Wells. The only one who can really defeat Wells is probably the first person of the young generation of the Iron Cross, Su Zixia, the personal disciple of the Sakura Sword God.
Su Zixia is a genius who broke through the genetic lock at the age of eighteen.
Zheng Zaishun feels that Wells is not the leader of the young generation of Clover but also the core figure, such a person will have achievements in the future, and there is no harm in making friends in time.
He said, "By the way, Wells, are you familiar with Levi?" β
At the mention of Levi, Wells was silent for a moment and said, "It's considered to be acquaintance, not familiar." β
Jung Jae-soon didn't realize Wells's mood, and in his impression, this strong young man had always had such a gloomy expression. He continued to ask, "Clover's support team seems to be led by Levi, is this a powerful person?" β
After thinking about it for a moment, he said, "It's amazing. β
"Oh? That's great! It seems that we have another master on our side who has opened the genetic lock. Zheng Zai naturally thinks so.
"No, he hasn't even completed the ultimate tempering."
"Huh?"
