Chapter 13: Disparity
Zhang Shuo drove into the rest area on the side of the road, walked around to the back of the small shop, motioned for Tang Rou to wait in the car, and then got out of the car and went around from the back of the store to the other end.
Not long after, a small car stopped on the other side of the road, and three men got out of it. I saw them jump over the small ditch next to the highway and slowly approach the direction of the rest area from the green belt. The weapons of the three were really "pitiful", only one was holding a small pistol, and the other two were holding knives and iron rods.
These three people are outlaws found by the fat man, and they have killed a 12-member scavenging team with the strength of three people for a few boxes of food. Although it is not uncommon in this apocalyptic world to become outlaws for food, the ruthlessness of these three is rare. So the fat man promised to give them a month's worth of food, and they didn't hesitate to take on the mission, even if the target was a hunter.
In their opinion, as long as they are not gene hunters, the means of the three of them are enough to deal with it. Whether it is them or the fat man, they still don't believe that Zhang Shuo is so young and can still be a gene hunter!
The three of them sneaked into the rest area, and the man who took the lead was a former wilderness hunter, although only at the apprentice level, but he also accumulated a lot of experience. He glanced at the two behind him, and let them approach the small shop left and right, while he carefully opened the window and climbed in.
The man who walked around the small shop behind him, just around the corner, suddenly felt his mouth covered, and before he could react, there was a cold touch on his neck.
"Poof—"
There was a soft thud, accompanied by a splash of blood-red liquid. The man's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of horror and unwillingness.
Zhang Shuo put the body on the ground, jumped on the roof of the small shop, and came to the main entrance. The people on the side of the main entrance of the trio were cautiously looking around, not noticing that one of his companions had died at the hands of Zhang Shuo.
Zhang Shuo took advantage of the fact that the man was looking behind him, and raised his right arm to aim-
"Huh-" The hunting box shot a hook and shot straight at the man's throat, although the man heard a sound from above, but the speed of the hook was too fast, and the moment he turned around, the hook claw pierced into his throat, and he only had time to let out a wail, and he became a lifeless corpse.
The man in the room apparently heard the movement outside, but instead of rushing out, he leaned against the wall and observed the situation outside through the window.
Suddenly—
The window glass next to this person suddenly shattered, and a white mechanical arm quickly stretched in, grabbing his throat in the blink of an eye, this person is also a practitioner, and reacted immediately, but the speed of the arm was too fast, and the force was terrifying, dragging himself out, directly lifting him out of the window, and throwing him on the cold ground, he quickly got up and raised his gun to aim at Zhang Shuo, who was standing in front of the window.
Zhang Shuo looked at him very calmly, not feeling that this appearance was a little fierce, and the gun in the hand of the scarred man with a scar in his left eye would threaten him.
The scar man swallowed his saliva, his hands holding the gun trembled slightly, he didn't know if this shot could solve the man in front of him, he only knew that the man in front of him was different from his half-bucket water hunter, he was a real hunter, and his strength was at least a few streets away from himself! And his white mechanical gloves were obviously the standard equipment of the Silver Hunter, which was something he had dreamed of!
"Ray Wei sent you?" Zhang Shuo asked lightly.
Scar Man nodded, he only hoped that a miracle would befall him, and the hunter in front of him with unfathomable strength would be able to let him go.
"Purpose?" Zhang Shuo asked again.
Scar Man replied honestly, "The Minister of Logistics said that your destination is Dawning City, but you are going in the opposite direction, and I am afraid that you will have bad intentions against the Thunder Shelter, so let's investigate." ”
He didn't say that the fat man said that if he found out that Zhang Shuo's strength was very average, then kill him and bring another woman back.
Obviously, after some investigation, he found that Zhang Shuo's strength was "very extraordinary".
When Lei Wei asked Zhang Shuo where he was going, Zhang Shuo casually said Dawning City, but he didn't expect that because Dawning City and Yaoguang City were in opposite directions, such a small detail was remembered by Lei Wei's refuge, and sure enough, in this apocalyptic world, it is not easy for people to become the leader of a party.
"Get out!" Zhang Shuo said coldly.
The scar man glanced at Zhang Shuo gratefully, and quickly turned around and ran.
Zhang Shuo raised his hand and aim-
Bang –
The bullet from the shotgun pierced Scar's head the next moment.
Zhang Shuo has never been in the habit of leaving hidden dangers for himself.
Zhang Shuo returned to the car, and Tang Rou asked, "Solved?" ”
"Solved."
"We're all gone, what else do they want to do?" Tang Rou was puzzled.
Zhang Shuo replied while starting the car: "Lei Wei found out that we were going in the opposite direction of Dawn City, so he sent someone to inquire about our specific movements. ”
"You killed them?"
Zhang Shuo nodded.
Tang Rou just sighed and didn't speak again. She knows that this apocalyptic world is so cruel, the law of the jungle is the strong, and the winner is king. Although she was born in a military home at the East Sichuan Base and was protected by her parents since she was a child, after the collapse of the beast tide at the East Sichuan Base, she saw a lot of the coldness and cruelty of the apocalypse. Later, she and her parents were taken to the Kawanaka base, and the leader of the base peeked at her beauty, and after she refused, she killed her mother, if it weren't for her father risking his life to take her out of the Kawanaka base, she would be like those women in the Kawanaka base, and became the plaything of the leader of the Kawanaka base.
Later, she and her father went to the Base Hope Branch Vault, where they became a researcher. After her unremitting efforts, she finally made certain achievements in the field of genetic hunting equipment, relying on her ability to protect her "body". Unexpectedly, the Hope Base Branch ended up with the same fate as the East Sichuan Base, after being attacked by the beast tide, her father also died on the way to escape, and she was alone and didn't know where she should go, what to do, and she had no goal.
What is life for?
She didn't know.
She just didn't want to give up the life given by her parents.
…………
…………
A few days later.
Zhang Shuo drove the car to stop under the high walls of Bright City, and after a while, the monitor on the high wall projected a screen, and a young man in a black uniform appeared on the screen.
"Stop, please show your entry card or hunter number."
Zhang Shuo stretched out his left hand from the window, his index finger moved, and a small projection appeared on the back of the silver mechanical glove, on which was Zhang Shuo's ID.
"Wait a minute."
As soon as the young man's voice fell, he began to scan Zhang Shuo's documents and himself, and after the scanning, he looked at Tang Rou and asked, "What about hers?" ”
"Newcomer."
"Oh, that's a temporary entry fee of 200 GM, and you can only move around the city."
Zhang Shuo nodded, pressed a few times on the hunter's glove, and paid the fee.
"Release." After receiving the money, the young man shouted behind him.
Then, with the sound of "crunching" gears, the walls in front of them slowly opened to the sides, revealing the metal passage to Shine City.
Coming to the "Hunter 1979" store, Zhang Shuo said to Tang Rou: "You are waiting here. ”
Then I got out of the car and entered the store.
