Chapter 185: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas
"What do you mean not all?!"
Harvey nervously leaned out of the window and looked back, but the creatures hidden in the darkness were extra cautious, keeping the distance between them quite delicate, and the harder Billy's accelerator pedal, the faster they chased after them, and vice versa, slowing down so that the occupants of the car couldn't see them anyway.
"Danger doesn't come one by one, more often than not, they swarm."
Shu Yungui grabbed the luggage rack with one hand, raised the gun into the dark depths, and fired three shots in a row in the second of relative stillness caused by the speeding forward of the off-road vehicle and the enemy's full-speed pursuit!
The air compressed to the extreme made several dazzling white lights in the night, and immediately he heard the sound of several heavy objects falling to the ground near the back of the car, and the hairs on Kony's back who were sitting in the car stood on end, because he felt that the sound was almost sliding down the back of his head.
"Don't hit the brakes! Keep going!"
Shu Yungui patted the roof of the car vigorously and said loudly, "Raymond! Shoot you at nine o'clock!"
Raymond didn't know why he listened to Shu Yungui, but he was indeed an excellent musketeer, even lying on the roof of a bumpy car, he could hit the target accurately, although the musket was not as lethal as the air beam gun, but it was enough to make the enemy injured and withdraw from the pursuit line.
The first echelon was killed and wounded, the pursuers finally slowed down, and the No. 1 car also managed to open a little distance between it and the enemy, but the uneasiness in Shu Yungui's heart did not decrease, and he still stared around vigilantly to prevent the enemy from sneaking up on the blind spot.
Everyone's tense nerves had not yet calmed down, and Qi Yan, the lookout who had been sitting in the car without speaking, suddenly shook his whole body, pointed to the front and shouted, "Brake! There's no way ahead!"
As Billy stepped on the brakes, the old rubber tires made a sharp sound on the ground, and the whole body was thrown forward in a semicircle due to the sudden locking of the brakes on the front wheels, and everyone in the car was huddled together and slammed on the door frame.
This time, Shu Yungui and Raymond, who were already outside the car, were almost thrown out of the car, half of Raymond's body was already suspended, and he was about to fall into the bottom of the car and be crushed, but the out-of-control off-road vehicle stopped at this time, and everyone's hearts were beating in the quiet night, only Shu Yungui quickly snatched the flashlight in Harvey's hand, and pressed the power switch the second the vehicle completely stopped!
The beam of light suddenly shone towards the rear of the vehicle, and the pursuer, who had no time to dodge, was burned by the strong light, let out a frightened wail and fell to the ground, and Shu Yungui, who jumped out of the car, put the muzzle of the gun to his head.
It was a human, and although his hair was long, his beard was thin, and his face was dirty, judging from his sound limbs and black and white eyes, it was a very normal human being.
Raymond, the musketeer, jumped off the roof of the car with trepidation, provoked the other man's chin with the barrel of the musket that had not disappeared, spat viciously, and scolded, "Bastard, I almost told your grandfather that I fell into meat sauce!"
Not only him, everyone in the car was still tachycarcinous at this time, Billy got out of the car tremblingly, looking at the broken bridge in front of him and his legs were weak in fright, but as long as the lookout Qi Yanwan reminded them for a second, they were going to fall off the bridge and fall into a puddle of mud.
The right front wheel of the off-road vehicle has been vacated, and the weight behind it is all to hold down the whole car from falling, the viaduct in front is broken, and there is no way out, Harvey can only get out of the car again, grab the prisoner captured by Shu Yungui and look at it, frowning and scolding: "It's a damn outcast again!"
"Every time the bounty team has to lose some of it in their hands, this group of people is simply everywhere, like a group of dog skin plasters, once they are stained with it, they can't get rid of it!"
Almost wiped out, Harvey kicked the person to the ground angrily, took out a pistol from the back and was about to finish the person, the safety bolt had just been opened, but the person who had been crawling at his feet suddenly burst out and knocked his muzzle off, like some kind of special signal, when he burst out, countless fires suddenly attacked them from all directions!
Billy was about to shoot subconsciously, but Shu Yungui held down his wrist, and then the flames fell to the ground, and huge explosions sounded one after another, and everyone saw clearly that what was thrown was a homemade Molotov cocktails in glass bottles!
The glass bottle was filled with fuel, and the mouth of the bottle was stuffed with strips of rags, and it burned brightly
Fire, if hit by a musket, the burning liquid scatters in the air, and everyone present cannot escape the doom of burning themselves.
Shu Yungui kicked a volley that threw the combustion. The bottle kicked back, the bottle burst, and the flowing fire dragon finally gave a glimmer of light to the dark place, and through that faint light, everyone finally saw the true face of the enemy who had been chasing them relentlessly.
It was a group of homeless people who had been living in the wilderness, not well-armed, Shu Yungui only saw two or three rifles at a cursory glance, but the advantage was that there were many of them, they were like hyenas in the forest, smelling the smell of people and pouring into their nests.
The sturdy man at the head waved his hand at Shu Yungui and them, signaling to let go of their kind, but Harvey was unwilling, this stupid pig in the field almost killed him, how could he give up?
Against Harvey's gaze, Shu Yungui shook his head lightly and said in a low voice, "There are too many of them, unless you don't want your car and supplies."
Harvey was very dissatisfied with Shu Yungui's reaction, he believed that since Shu Yungui chose to go out of the city with him, he should take the lead in everything, and the members of the bounty team should not object to the captain's orders.
"Aren't you magically magical? Summon some skates and get rid of all those idiots!"
Shu Yungui didn't care about Harvey's call for the mutation ability to be called dark magic, he shrugged, ignored Harvey's anger, and said calmly: "It's no problem to solve them, but black magic can't be used at any time, believe it or not, there will be a large number of orcs waiting for us after them, what are you going to do at that time?"
"Don't scare people, did the orcs themselves tell you they're coming?"
Harvey raised his fist, but he didn't dare to do anything to Shu Yungui, so he could only crunch his back molars and instruct Raymond: "Quickly beat them into a sieve!"
Raymond was more obedient than Shu Yungui, and when he heard the sound, he picked up the musket, but obviously Shu Yungui was right, he had just picked up the gun, and the muzzle of the other party's gun was also pointed over, not only that, but they also had countless burns. The bottle can burn an entire fleet of vehicles to soot.
Raymond was a good obedient fellow, but he wasn't a fool, and it wasn't a wise choice to be outnumbered, so he slid his throat up and down a few times before deciding to speak to Harvey.
"Boss, ...... boss"
"That's it! Shut up!"
Harvey is not a fool, he knows that the current situation is not Shu Yungui to make a move, just by them hard to win, as soon as Raymond opened his mouth, he knew what the kid was going to say, and felt that it was too embarrassing to admit that Shu Yungui was right, so he scolded Raymond with a face, looked at Shu Yungui again, and asked him angrily: "Then what do you say?"
"I can only discuss it with the other party and see what they want."
Shu Yungui spread his hands and expressed his helplessness, but if he was given an offensive mutant, or recovered half of his mutation ability, he could keep it with people and cars, but now in this situation of one drag and six, he really can't drag it.
Naturally, this kind of negotiation was handed over to the good-natured guide Vincent, who had followed his father to run transportation since he was a child, had been to all the cities of the Ninth Star, knew more than a dozen dialects, and had a harmless baby face, which was the best way to paralyze the enemy's psychological defense.
Vincent is a very reliable man, he travels from south to north and knows how to deal with the world, and he is also very handy when dealing with the outcasts in the wilderness.
He raised his hands to indicate that the other party was not carrying a weapon, in exchange for a chance to negotiate, and was only allowed to step forward after receiving an agreement, and at the same time, a gray-haired old man appeared in the opposing camp, and the two began to communicate with each other at a distance of one meter.
Soon, Vincent identified himself with the other party, turned back to Harvey, and beckoned, "Boss, they want a cartload of food in exchange."
As if hearing some big joke, Harvey's brows furrowed deeply, and he asked, "Swap? You ask them what they can exchange, and I think they just want to rob!"
The outer city has only been established for twenty years, and the languages of the two sides have not changed much, except for some dialect tones, the other party has almost understood Harvey's meaning, although Vincent tried his best to be careful, but Harvey's attitude still made the other party very dissatisfied
。
After all, people can really say now, "I planted this tree, I opened this road; If you want to live from now on, leave the money to buy the road."
"Boss, they said that either we should leave a cart of food or a cart, otherwise even if we have great ability, we will not be able to get out of Gobain City safely."
This sentence can be regarded as infuriating Harvey, he is used to running rampant in the outer city, no one dares to stand in his way, in the eyes of the people in the outer city, the outcasts are inferior, and it is disrespectful not to give way obediently, how can they dare to shout for supplies?
Could it be that after being in the wilderness for a long time, do you really think that you are an orc who drinks blood and is feared by everyone?
"Joke, it's not the first time I've sent a bounty team out of the city, and it's not the first time I've gone to Gobain.
Harvey insisted on refusing to compromise and waved his hand: "Vincent, come back!" I'll see what they can do to us today!"
The big boss spoke, and the little guide didn't dare not listen, Vincent grabbed his hair, and shook his head helplessly at the leader of the homeless, and the other party was also instantly enraged, and he didn't know what to shout twice, and then all the homeless people present began to approach the bounty team.
Harvey jumped behind Shu Yun almost when the other party took the first step, obviously, he didn't expect the other party to really kill people and sell goods when he went out of the city for the first time, and at present, looking at the entire bounty team, only Shu Yun was the safest place to return.
Faced with such a boss who does not enter oil and salt and cares about gains and losses everywhere, Shu Yungui sighed deeply and had to sigh that it was not easy to work.
He pinned the Air Beam back to his tactical belt with his backhand and began to move his neck and wrists in front of Harvey.
"I knew you had a hand!"
Seeing him like this, Harvey almost stomped his feet in excitement, and pointed at the group of homeless people in front of him and said viciously, "Quick! Deal with all these stupid pigs for me!"
