Chapter 36: Life and Death

“....!”

Andy watched as the unidentified guy rushed closer, first punching the opponent's pistol away, but at the same time the opponent also stabbed the dagger he held in his right backhand.

Seeing that the tip of the dagger was about to pierce the eyeball, Andy had no choice but to reach out and grab the dagger, and blood suddenly flowed.

Angry in his heart because of the pain in the palm of his right hand, Andy's left arm was punched towards the face of the bastard in front of him, and the fist made a dull sound after touching the other party's face, but the other party shook his head, and actually pulled out the dagger that was grabbed by Andy with his backhand, Andy screamed in pain, and a big cut was made in his palm.

Chrissy rushed from the side, and because the submachine gun was out of ammunition, she had to draw her dagger and stab at the soldier.

The two fought with daggers in close quarters, slashing, stabbing and stabbing.

Between the swords and swords, both of them soon saw blood on their bodies, but Chrissy was obviously at a disadvantage, and the military dagger in her hand was slashed by the opponent's when she was fighting the knife.

"The dagger technique of the troops... Who the hell are you? Are you pretending to be NCR soldiers? ”

The two stood in place and confronted each other, Chrissy's flank sliced open by a ferocious stab from the other, but the opponent only scratched his arm, and in the battle of agility and strength, the man almost never fell behind.

"We are NCR soldiers, and we are loyal to NCR.... Staying true to the NCR in our hearts. ”

The soldier's nose was still bleeding, which was a follow-up symptom after being hit by Andy's terrible punches, and although he was acting fine at the moment, his head actually hurt as if it were exploding, and the scene in front of him flickered and darkened.

His other hand reached into his coat pocket to remove a needle and an inhaled adrenaline, but before he could do so, he heard a foul wind coming from the back of his head.

The soldier dodged in confusion and saw Andy coming with his right hand wrapped around the bandage.

"Let me guess, you're not going to follow an old man who looks like a mad scientist."

The soldier smiled gloomily, and the dagger in his hand danced with a knife flower.

"Ignorant fool, you are worthy of talking about the great Dr. Prester? If we hadn't blown up the walls of Tibbetts Prison, you would have rotted in that prison by now, being sent to the crematorium by robots to be burned to ashes. ”

Andy sneered twice.

"What, acquaintance, isn't this.... How about a new acquaintance? What is your name? ”

The soldier was on guard at the same time, but he didn't seem to be flustered at all, and the ** muscles under the military uniform were tense, as if they could explode with amazing power at any time.

"Butch, Butch Mariano..... Andy Arendall, you have the privilege of being a pawn in Prester's great plan for a new world, and you should thank us for that. You are hindering our actions in turn, and useless scum like you will not be qualified to go to the new world, so let me, a new human, educate you! ”

The Mystery Man's boots named Butch were a cloud of flying sand, and he dodged Andy's gunfire at such speed that even the attacks he did in V mode missed.

Butch injected all the auxiliaries on his body, and the injuries on his body were immediately relieved, but with the injection of "madness", his eyes began to turn blood-red.

"Kill!!"

Butch bared his teeth and let out a beastly roar, the effects of the drug nearly making him lose his mind.

He leaped out of behind the rubble he was hiding like a phantom, and Andy's shot was dodged by him, and the occasional shot or two had no effect on him.

His arm exerted force, and the dagger flew out in an instant, as if a sharp sword had pierced directly into Andy's armor.

Before Andy could react, Butch flew up and kicked on the dagger, directly allowing the dagger to penetrate the combat armor, and a sharp pain came from his chest, and the power of the other party even kicked Andy away.

He barely struggled from the ground, spurting out a mouthful of blood.

Chrissy took the dagger and tried to stop Butch, but was directly punched and knocked away, and several times she tried to get up from the ground, but she couldn't do it.

Butch screams and runs over, raising his fists to smash Andy's head, but the demon rushes from the side and knocks him away.

The terrible mouth bit Butch's right arm and then crushed him to the ground, and the mad demon, already irritated by the smell of blood, now had scarlet eyes, and even the arm it bit down made a terrible grinding sound.

"Die!"

Butch's face contorted like a demon, and he flew up and kicked the demon in the stomach, and then his fist rained down on its head, but it couldn't let it go.

He was so angry that he suddenly forced himself up from the ground, picked up the demon that had bitten his arm, and threw him to the ground.

The demon screamed, but he still didn't say anything.

Just as Butch was about to take a second fall, Andy hit him in the waist from behind.

A crisp sound came out, and Butch's whole person was suddenly "crooked".

But he didn't feel anything, and with an elbow he flew Andy, forcibly pulling his right arm out of the demon's mouth, and suddenly there was blood, and the arm that was pulled out was almost a bone wrapped in minced flesh.

Butch dragged his fleshless right arm and skewed his waist like a monster and ran towards Andy, stretched out his foot and stepped on Andy, who had not yet stood up, and pulled out the dagger stuck in the middle of Andy's breastplate with his left arm, and blood gushed out from the gap.

He shook it twice, his face bleeding from all holes, but he still clutched the bloody dagger.

"Death.... Die... For the new world! For the new world!! ”

Butch raised his dagger and stabbed at Andy, but when he bent over, his waist clicked again, and he was so frozen there that he couldn't move.

"Andy!"

Chrissy threw her dagger over.

Andy caught it in the air and pushed the unsightly Butch to the ground, and the dagger stabbed wildly in his face, blood splattering on his face and body. ..........

A few minutes later, an exhausted Andy threw aside Butch, who was motionless with a dagger in his head.

"Maniac..."

He unfastened his battle breastplate, which fortunately still contained Hermes' inner armor, and the dagger didn't penetrate too deeply.

Chriss's face was bruised, and Butch's casual punch nearly knocked her unconscious.

The demon is even more miserable, and has no consciousness.

Andy took the needles and other medicines for the other partners to use, but thanks to the high-grade medicines provided by Tibbetts Prison, this time they did not have serious problems due to their injuries.

The super needle caused a bout of colic after the injection took effect, but then the injury began to improve quickly.

Andy sat on the ground, and Chrissy, who was less wounded, had gone to search for a few dead soldiers.

"He's telling the truth, they're NCR soldiers."

Chrissy sighed as she held a couple of dog tags.

"Cunningham, Green, Salvador, and... That Butch, that's their name, they do have rare materials in their backpacks, and it's true that these people are out looking for these things, but where are they going to take the materials? ”

Andy glanced at the back seat of the car, using the metal from the soldiers' backpacks as a splint to hold the broken bones in place, while it was asleep.

If it hadn't saved his life, Andy would have been hammered to death by Butch.

"Look again and see if there are any other clues.... I'm afraid the purpose of these people is not simple, what new world has that Butch been muttering about, what the hell is that, there are still cults in the NCR army? ”

Chrissy began to search again, but found nothing, these people were so clean that they couldn't even find their personal belongings.

"Nothing.... How could there be such a thing in the NCR army..."

Andy still felt some pain in his chest, and even more so in some of the places where he was hit by Butch.

He sat up from the ground, grinning in pain.

"Well, it looks like it's going to be confusing for a while....."

Everyone got into the car, and Andy drove back to the salvage crews' station with difficulty.

"It's... What's going on? No matter how degenerate the NCR is, it can't get to this point, isn't it the same as the enclave..."

Chrissy is in a state of doubt about her life, and her already undetermined position is even more shaken.

"Andy, let me tell you in advance, I may not be able to continue with you."

She grimaced.

"I've been out of the military for too long, I'm going back to Hoover Dam to see what the hell is going on? Why would anyone in NCR do such a thing? ”

You are a genius, remember in a second: Red Sweet Spring:
