"We agreed to your conditions!"

A few minutes later, Jack Sparrow, who had been "talking" with Jameson, strode up to the leaders of the subterranean lizardmen clan, puffing out a smoke ring.

He held out his finger and pointed to the location of the shelter above his back, and said to the lizardmen who were staring at him with eerie eyes as if they were looking at "food":

"The collapsed place is yours, and the people of the shelter will be evacuated, leaving you with nothing that you can't take with you. I've already agreed with Mayor Jameson that they'll be moving in a few days, and they can even help. ”

"Huh?"

Such a generous and direct reply made the underground lizards who had split into several tribes look at me, I look at you, their eyes covered in scales of different colors with a suspicious and cold light.

One of the large black lizardmen curled his forked tongue in his mouth, and his two eyes were strangely flipped at different angles to stare at Captain Jack, him

Uh, she said:

"You outsiders speak with white teeth, we can't believe it, don't look at us like beasts now, back then, our brothers were all in the high-end circle of Manhattan, all of them were millions of people a second, and their eyes turned countless hearts.

You can't fool us with this little trick. ”

"You can go talk to them."

Jack took a puff of smoke and pointed to the several Vault leaders behind him, saying:

"I'm just a middleman, you know? Of course, I understand what you mean, such a big refuge will be sent, and who can rest assured that such a big thing does not mention some conditions.

So listen up, their condition is that you clans get people! All the lizardmen who can still move are out and follow us to the Osborne Tower!

Don't be afraid.

We've sent our spearheads and our heroes to fight there, and if you have observers, it's not hard to see that the tower is on fire. ”

"What terrible conditions."

Several lizardfolk leaders hissed and shouted noisily:

"You're going to fight us against the invaders! The mad dogs from the aliens who ruined the world! We don't want this shelter, and we'll be able to move in when you're dead.

We're all just weak, helpless ordinary people, we."

"You're not ordinary anymore!"

Dr. Connors, who had been sitting by and not speaking like a log since the beginning of this negotiation, would say in a deep voice:

"You volunteered to inject my lizard serum to survive the apocalypse, and since then you are no longer human.

It is not only your appearance that has been altered, but also your life forms.

Wearing scale armor without fear of bullets and rebirth, the super self-healing ability to regenerate severed limbs, the night vision ability to track life signals with heat energy, and the super endurance to survive in complex environments with high temperatures, low temperatures, and even chemicals.

You can even drink unpurified sewage to a certain extent before you become infected by the virus.

You can feel weak, but you can't insult my serum! ”

The biologist, who single-handedly created the "race" of the Underworld, wagged his tail, which was two circles larger than the average lizardman, and said in a cold tone in a white coat with oversized glasses in a white coat in the jagged opening and closing of his sharp teeth:

"It's not that you can't fight, it's just that you're afraid.

I'd rather use my new powers to fight each other and grab that little scrap of the cold, and I'd rather carve out a territory underground like a wild beast than aim my minions at the culprits who ruined their past lives.

You're really the most failed test piece I've ever made.

I ask you! ”

Dr. Connors stood up.

The super big man made several lizardman leaders take a few steps back in fear, and he scolded him like the lizardman boss had taught his cubs:

"Are your teeth not sharp enough? Or are your claws not sharp enough? I gave you the power of cold-blooded beasts, didn't I give you the heart of a beast? ”

The Underground People are all made by Dr. Connors's serum, and although they don't regard this Doctor as a "god" or "faith", these halfway monks have a headache and have to go to Dr. Connors for treatment, so although the Doctor is not involved in the politics of the Underground People, his reputation among this new group is absolutely high.

In the face of his reprimand, a group of lizardmen lowered their heads and did not dare to refute, and the black female lizardmen, who were the first to speak to Jack, whispered:

"But it's different, Doctor. This black-eyed outsider wants to trick us into fighting the terrible Cleaners, but we don't have to.

They don't come underground, and we can act as if they don't exist."

"Don't be stupid!"

Captain Jack has finally found his chance.

He screamed, attracting the attention of not only the lizardmen, but also some of the surrounding Vault members. The legendary pirate jumped on the chest next to him with great agility, waving his hands like a street speaker and shouting to the people around him:

"You bury your head in the dark, hide yourself in the ground and pretend you can't see the surface of the world, and deceive yourself that nothing has happened.

You can continue to hypnotize yourself like this to keep the dream going, but the earthquake just now is something you have experienced! By this time, no one would think it was just an ordinary geological hazard, right?

Don't be silly!

The truth is right in front of you, but you don't want to believe it.

Let's take this opportunity to get out of the way. ”

Jack yelled at the Osborne Tower and the gravity to be here, and did a hundred million points of proper "exaggeration" in addition to the facts.

For example, they intimidate the lizardmen into saying that the cleaners' plan is to cause a great earthquake and bury them alive in the ground, and they intimidate the inhabitants of the Vault into saying that the bastards from other worlds take their heroes in order to push them to a corner, and then use them for horrific biological experiments.

"Now we have reached the point where you can't live without fighting! This is not the time of a few years ago when you could hide underground and avoid danger. ”

As he spoke, Jack became excited, took out a bottle of wine and took a sip of it, and he shouted:

"The butcher's knife is in someone's hand, and you don't have to pick the time if they want to do it. You, and the lizardmen, don't think that your sad days, which have hit rock bottom, will go on like this.

You may be thinking, it's already rotten to this point, are you afraid of even more rotten?

But I'll leave it here today!

If you're looking for some kind of change, tonight is the best time for you, we outsiders are like mad dogs in your eyes, and I admit that the Hounds of the Stars have done disgusting things, but we're different!

We are not just talking about it, my brothers and sisters have set the Osborne Tower on fire, and I think that is a testament to our competence and sincerity.

We are your pioneers!

We'll take care of the hardest bones, you just need to pick up your weapons and rush in to make a strong noise, and hit every bullet at the dog mongrels who have ruined your world.

All the bad stuff will end tonight!

Come on!

Let's burn the Osborne Tower to ashes! ”

Jack's shouting and incitement caused a commotion in the crowd.

This is especially true for young people who have seen the prosperity of the old days, and the old people may be willing to live underground in order to survive, but for them, it is human instinct to yearn for the sun.

Some of the agitated ones were already waving their hands at Jack's shout.

But the Pirate Legend keenly sensed that most of the crowd was still hesitating, and it was normal that he only talked about the risks and the fight, but did not tell them what the risk could be rewarded.

Who is going to do anything good in this damn year?

Captain Jack, who knew this well, cleared his throat and opened his arms to the silent crowd:

"Your shelter has collapsed, my poor Doomsday people, of course you can try to clean it up, but I've already told you that it's only getting less and less safe for you to live underground as the Cleaners demand gravity.

So why don't you change places?

How about Osborne Tower?

A beautiful seaside town, with a wall more than 50 meters high, there is no need to worry about zombies, and everyone has a few hours a day to bask on the surface.

Someone with a skill can even have a capsule room in a residential area on the ground.

It's a little smaller, but it's all there.

After all, everyone can go back to where they should live, and they can eat synthetic meat two days a week, and while I don't know what that is, it sounds pretty good.

You can enjoy clean water, you can even buy a cola-flavored drink for a little money, and you can eat a finger cake or something on your birthday every year.

Think about the children, think about the young people, hide in this underground place and want to watch a movie, you have to take care of your roommates, this TM is the life of people?

I know, it's risky.

But there's a risk in doing anything! You could be electrocuted if you tinkered with a toast in the shelter, so why bother thinking about it if it was fate? ”

The legendary pirate paused, and in a silent gaze, he drew the pistol from his waist, pulled it open with a click, and shouted to the people in front of him:

"Are you willing to hide in a dark cave underground until you die of old age, and have your children blame you for losing the world that rightfully belongs to them, and living to the age of eighty without doing anything?

Or would you rather join me on the battlefield tonight?

Even if he didn't survive the first ten minutes of the battle, he was even more miserable when he was knocked to the ground by the first bullet.

I have nothing more to promise you.

All I can say is that if you survive tonight, when you have kids, you'll be able to brag about what you've done for this fucking world.

Even if it's just a little bit.

At that time, you could brag to your heart's content, and no one dared to question you. ”

No one responded to Jack's incitement, except for the screams and noises of some young people, but the silence in the crowd had subtly changed.

Everyone was looking at each other, as if waiting for the first person to actually stand up.

The resentment that has been hidden under the apocalypse for so long, the invisible emotion that bursts out of the pain of longing to go back to the past but being forced to face the tragic reality is brewing.

Just wait for a lead to ignite it.

"Well said, well said! So good that these words should not be said by an outsider like you! ”

Mary Jane's voice came from the back of the crowd, and the lady in a cowgirl outfit held a large-caliber shotgun, and many people turned to look at her.

Mary Jane, who was well known in the Vault, brushed her hair, raised her weapon in her hand, and said:

"My ex-husband. You all know him, and he's going to be under Osborne's Tower!

Just now, he and these outsiders killed Osborne's doglegs, and the evil six who escaped the catastrophe did not escape the judgment and punishment they deserved tonight.

Peter Parker was there to fulfill his promise to protect the city.

He lost his city, but he stood up for us again!

Brothers and sisters, this time we will not sit idly by like the last time, sit back and watch the world being handed away, we only have this little thing left in our hands, and whoever wants to snatch it again will fight with him!

I would go there!

For my daughter, for my dead husband and son.

I need someone to come with me. ”

"Me!"

The little old man, Jameson, threw away his cane, grabbed a revolver and shouted.

Well, that's the lead!

And it's already been ignited.

After a few seconds, the entire silent crowd exploded, screaming and waving their arms and shouting something that they probably didn't even know what they were shouting.

But that smell is there.

The guards, who had been arranged long ago, sent their weapons into the crowd, and Captain Jack looked at this scene proudly, he spat out the smoke ring and looked back at the lizard people defiantly, and said:

"What do you think they will do if I tell them now that you don't want to go into battle with us and are still trying to take our shelter?

Or come with us!

Either let's fight here first! If we can't live, don't TMD want to live comfortably! ”

"We."

The black she-lizard also wanted to stall for a while.

But then a muffled sound in the distant cave made the faces of all the lizardmen leaders change greatly, and after a while, a lizardman cub covered in blood rushed over and shouted:

"Oh no, chiefs, our supply warehouse has been blown up! Daredevil did it! The bastard, who had been paralyzed for years, didn't know when his legs and feet recovered, and he slipped in and set a fire.

The food and water we stored were all gone, and he held our lizard eggs hostage."

"!"

The black she-lizardman was completely furious.

She swung her claws at the smug Captain Jack in front of her, but the arm was easily caught by a thicker claw, and at Dr. Connors's thunderous shouts, the strongest lizardfolk leader was thrown out and smashed to the ground like a child.

"Assemble your warriors!"

Dr. Lizard yelled as he tore off his white coat:

"Pick up these armed civilians and go to Osborne Tower from the underground river! I've had enough of your cowardice and chatter, you're wasting your second life, and even more so the serum I've given you!

Or follow us into battle!

Either I'll release the antidote and turn you back into weak humans.

The choice is yours! ”

"After this battle, the entire underground world of the East Coast will be yours, and the materials of Osborne Tower will also be given to you, which will definitely be enough to compensate for your losses."

Captain Jack was beside him spitting smoke rings, and said faintly in a picture of flatbread:

"But we have to get the loot in our hands before we can talk about distribution, right?"

In less than ten minutes, the first armed Vault civilians, led by Dr. Connors in black leather armor and Mary Jane, set off on the lizard warriors who were running on all fours in the underground river.

Jack was among them.

The sassy guy rode behind the black female lizardman who had been taught a lesson by Dr. Connors, and as he grabbed the lizardman's dorsal fin, he said:

"Hey, my famous captain is missing a mount. Uh, don't be offended, I mean partners! Do you want to mess with me in the future? ”

"Hey! Lizard Knight over there, bring this! ”

As they passed by the cliff where Dr. Otto had secluded, Dr. Hippie shouted from above, pointing to a black tin can beside him, and calling out to Jack below:

"Take this to the battlefield and give it to Mason, although it hasn't been repaired perfectly, he thinks it will be used."
