Chapter 5: Conflict and Leaving the City
The procedure for leaving the city is simple, you only need to register with the city guard management office and you can leave. Because Chu City needs people to leave the city to find new resources, or to explore new information. And when these people leave, they will more or less kill or feed the zombie beasts along the way, which can also make Chu City safer.
However, just when Chu Xun came to the city guard management office and was about to go through the formalities of leaving the city, unexpected trouble suddenly came.
A yin and yang weird aura, full of sarcasm and disdainful laughter, sounded from behind Chu Xun: "Yo, isn't this the waste of our Chu family?" ”
"How is he?" Looking at the guy who was surrounded by four or five people in the distance, wearing a white school uniform and a hooked nose, which made people look at it, Chu Xun frowned slightly.
This guy's name is Chu Jie, he is Chu Qing's younger brother, he is fifteen years old this year, but he has successfully awakened his ability, and he has the simulacrum ability "Rock Armor", which can be regarded as a rookie in the Chu family. This guy has always regarded Chu Qing as an idol, and he has bullied Chu Xun before, and even helped Chu Qing blackmail him, and the grudge between him and Chu Xun is not deep.
"What, dumb?" Seeing that Chu Xun did not say hello to himself in a low voice as before, and even frowned and put on an unhappy look, Chu Jie's mood suddenly became bad, he snorted coldly, and then walked quickly to Chu Xun, grabbed Chu Xun's collar, and said in a cold voice: "I heard that Qingyi died at your hands, although I don't know how you did it, but I want to tell you that you are going to die this time!" ”
"Let it go!" Being grabbed by the collar, Chu Xun's eyes instantly became cold, and at the same time, his right fist was slowly clenched, ready to strike at any time to teach Chu Jie a lesson.
Although with his current strength, he may not be able to defeat Chu Jie, who has the ability of rock armor, he is definitely not the kind of coward who will swallow his anger when others bully him. Even if you can't beat him, you have to punch him twice!
"Loud fights are strictly forbidden on the city walls!" Seeing that Chu Xun and Chu Jie were about to argue, the officers of the City Guard Management Office suddenly had cold eyes, and then directly pulled out the laser pistol on his waist, pointed at Chu Jie and said, "Let go immediately, otherwise you will be killed!" ”
As the only entrance and exit of Chu City, the South City Gate and the South City Wall have always been military administrative areas, where it is strictly forbidden to have any riots and disputes.
Since the city guards were directly under the management of the city lord, even Chu Jie didn't dare to be presumptuous, and immediately loosened Chu Xun's collar, and then said in a cold voice: "You'd better never go down the city wall, otherwise I will definitely make you look good!" ”
"Let's go!" After speaking, Chu Jie glanced at Chu Xun fiercely again, and then turned around and went down the city wall with a few doglegs.
He originally came this time to take a stroll and take a look at the scenery outside the city wall, but he didn't expect to be spoiled by Chu Xun. Thinking of this, a wisp of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and then he said loudly to a strong dog-legged man beside him: "Jie San, you wait here and stare at this waste, as soon as he leaves the city wall, tell me immediately, I must give this waste a little color this time." ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at Chu Xun fiercely again, gritted his teeth and said, "I must teach this waste a hard lesson before my brother leaves the customs, hum!" ”
Then, Chu Jie left with a few other doglegs, leaving only the dogleg named Jie San still guarding the city wall, staring at Chu Xun tightly.
He didn't dare to be careless, otherwise once he let Chu Xun slip out from under his nose, then he probably wouldn't live long. Thinking of Chu Jie's cruel criminal law against errant house slaves, Jie San couldn't help but shudder.
"It seems that things can't be better this time......" Chu Jie's voice was very loud, and it was naturally impossible for Chu Xun not to hear it, or that Chu Jie deliberately let him hear it. Looking at Jie San who was standing not far away, a trace of coldness suddenly flashed in Chu Jie's eyes, and then he took a deep breath, walked up to the city guard officer, and said, "Team officer, I want to go out of the city!" ”
"You're out of town?" The officer of the city guard obviously knew Chu Xun, and when he heard his request, he immediately frowned, and said: "Aren't you without the ability to awaken, with your strength, even the lowest level zombie can kill you, are you looking for death?" ”
Although the team officer's voice was cold and his expression was very stern, Chu Xun felt a trace of care from it. His heart warmed slightly, then he shook his head and said: "I have successfully awakened the ability, but the student assessment is coming, and I have just awakened now, and the ability is too weak, so I want to hone my ability in the battle, and then get a good score in the student assessment." ”
"Awakened?" Hearing Chu Xun's words, the officer's eyes lit up slightly, and then he shook his head again, and said: "Even if you awaken the ability, it can't work, with the level of your awakening ability now, although there is no problem in dealing with an ordinary zombie, once you encounter a few zombies, there is still a certain danger." What's more, ordinary zombies are only the weakest enemies, and there are countless terrifying creatures outside the city, these creatures are all feeding on people, do you know that you are likely to not be able to come back when you go out this time? ”
"I know it's dangerous to get out, but I'm not going to get too far out of the city. And I will only hunt near the main road. Every three months, a caravan clears the main road, so even if there are enemies near the main road, it won't be too strong. Chu Xun shook his head, and looked at the team officer with a firm look: "Please let me out, if I don't get good results in the student assessment, I can't get more resources, I don't want to be a waste!" ”
"He is worthy of being Chu Zhan's son, and his personality is as stubborn as your father." Looking at Chu Xun's serious expression, a trace of remembrance appeared in the officer's eyes, and then he sighed: "Okay, I'll let you out of the city, I hope you can come back alive." ”
Speaking of this, the team officer took off his dagger from his waist, handed it to Chu Xun, and said, "This second-level alloy dagger will be given to you, with it for self-defense, your chances of survival can also be higher." ”
"Thank you, Captain!" It was a matter of life and death, Chu Xun was naturally not polite, took the dagger directly, and then thanked him seriously with a serious face.
Unlike the ordinary alloy war knives he brought out from home, the second-grade alloy dagger was first and foremost harder, and sharper, which could be called gold and jade, and the value of the hair was as high as five or six crystal nuclei. With this dagger, Chu Xun's safety factor will also increase a lot.
"Don't thank you, if it weren't for your father's desperate fight, I'm afraid I'd die in the corpse tide like him now." The team officer shook his head, he and Chu Zhan were comrades-in-arms, so he treated Chu Xun so favorably. But that's all, he didn't have the strength to help Chu Xun more.
There were a lot of things to do with the city guards, and it was impossible for the officers to waste too much time on Chu Xun, so after handing over the dagger to Chu Xun, he used a crane to lower Chu Xun on the city wall.
"Huh, without the protection of the city wall, it's really a bit empty-hearted." Standing at the foot of the city wall, Chu Xun couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart.
Outside the city is a real death purgatory, not to mention that he is just a guy who has just awakened his ability, even a second-order, third-order or even fourth-order powerhouse may fall, to say that he is not afraid or nervous, it is completely deceitful.
Just thinking of the task he was tasked with, and the terrible punishment of obliteration, no matter how scared Chu Xun was, he could only choose to fight. He took a deep breath, inserted the thirty-centimeter-long, pitch-black, cold, metallic second-order alloy dagger into his waist, then clenched the war knife in his hand and walked towards the southern avenue.
"Grass, this guy is actually out of the city, is he looking for death?" Seeing that Chu Xun actually used a crane to go out of the city and walked into the distance, Jie San was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until Chu Xun's figure disappeared from view that he came back to his senses, and then suddenly laughed: "It seems that this guy was frightened by the young master, and he would rather die outside the city than come back." That's fine, I think the young master will definitely be satisfied with this answer. ”
Then, Jie San quickly ran down the city wall to inform Chu Jie.
