Chapter 270: The Standard of the Astral Army
Chu Zihang took Ten to the water purification plant again, and met a team of waste pickers on the way.
Scavengers are poor nesters who make a living by picking up garbage and hunting small game, and when appropriate, they also work as bandits.
When they have more weapons and equipment, they will be promoted to treasure hunters.
Of course, there is no official recognition for this promotion.
The ragged scavengers looked at the two of them with malicious eyes, and some even licked their lips subconsciously.
In the settlements they will be a little more restrained, and outside the settlements it will be real lawlessness.
Chu Zihang didn't say anything, just gestured and pulled the sleeve.
If you want to survive in the bottom nest, you can be illiterate, but you can't help but know the types of various weapons.
The power of the double-barreled shotgun is enough to discourage these people who don't even have iron armor.
The scavengers dispersed in fear, making way for the two.
The person who can get this kind of gun is definitely a ruthless character who kills people without blinking.
It's not far from Blackwater, but the guards won't come out to mind their business.
A group of scavengers, who died just to save food and water.
Chu Zihang walked in front of them silently, this group of waste pickers is also big and small, the big ones should be in their twenties, and the small ones are about the same as fire.
But compared to the innocence of the fire, the little girl's eyes were much more complicated.
And he also saw that her bare skin was full of marks of biting and whipping, from her thighs to
Chu Zihang didn't want to think about it anymore, he really wanted to have a whirlwind torpedo in his hand and blow up this bottomless nest to a clean slate.
"Needless to say, brother, the people of the empire are suffering, both outside and inside. When evil is gone, it is the day when sin is reckoned. ”
Lu Mingfei's words echoed in his ears, and the stirring emotions gradually calmed down.
When they came to the water purification plant, the two ratskin people were already waiting there.
They hold the fire hammer and keep looking around, and the slightest wind and grass can make them dodge the action, like two nervous rats.
"Ten!"
They were startled at first when they saw the two people approaching, and then they immediately became happy again.
"What about the beasts?"
Chu Zihang asked.
"Chu, I'm here."
As soon as his words fell, a bunch of ratskin figures came out of all corners of the water purification plant, more than last time.
Chu Zihang saw that the corners of his eyes twitched, and some places were only as wide as his head, and he didn't know how they got in.
The beast walked up to him happily, and it was clear that he must have gained a lot from this transaction, and even the wrinkles on his face had stretched a lot.
"Where's the stuff?"
Chu Zihang didn't care how many kickbacks the ratskin man ate, as long as he could get what he needed.
"Don't worry, Chu, we ratskin people will never let our friends suffer."
The beast beckoned, and the other ratskin people immediately brought over two packages made of rat skin.
The beast itself opened the package, which contained a half-body armor, a gun, and three grenades.
Carapace armor, laser guns, and fragmentation grenades, standard equipment for the Astral Army.
Even this carapace has several scars on it, and the laser gun doesn't look very well maintained.
"The laser gun can probably shoot a hundred times, but you should know how to charge it if you want this."
The beast said.
Chu Zihang frowned, the battery of the laser gun can be charged by roasting fire, but it is a helpless move in an emergency, and it will damage the battery structure.
"That's all we can get from the businessmen we work with, and the news has been tighter lately. If it weren't for the fact that water purification chips were also in demand, I am afraid that they would not be replaced. ”
The beast explained.
If the same value is exchanged for settlements, it will definitely be exchanged for something better, but it will also attract a lot of malicious eyes.
"And these."
The beast opened another package, which contained a bunch of nutrient packets and purified water.
"There are twenty packs in total, and they all have large pieces of meat."
He said smugly.
As for what kind of meat it is, don't get to the bottom of it.
Chu Zihang nodded, roughly the same as he expected.
"I'll come back later, this time it's two."
He said.
"Okay, we'll wait for you here."
The beast said hurriedly.
A water purification chip relieved the tribe, and two pieces were enough for them to make a lot of money.
Chu Zihang picked up the package and was about to leave, when a gunshot suddenly sounded outside the water purification plant.
His eyes froze, and the double-barreled shotgun slid into his hand, aiming the muzzle at the beast.
"You want to eat black?"
Chu Zihang's brows converged into two flying knives.
"Calm down, Chu, if we eat black by black, the gunshots won't come from outside."
The ratskin man said calmly.
If he can live to his age in the bottom nest, he has already had a big heart that is not shocked.
Chu Zihang thought about it, this is indeed the truth, so he lowered his gun.
"What's going on out there?"
The beast asked aloud.
"More than two dozen people, all with guns in their hands, are fighting with canine crocodiles."
Said the man in charge of the sentry when he climbed to a high place.
There are more than two dozen gunmen, and it doesn't take so many people to come to the water purification plant to pick up garbage.
It was clear that this group of people was coming for them.
"Our deal may have been exposed."
Chu Zihang said.
The Rat Skins had guessed this, and it certainly wasn't leaked from their side.
Of course, he wisely didn't dwell on that.
"Then let's fight, we ratskin people are not easy to bully."
The beast said decisively.
Chu Zihang picked up the carapace armor and put it directly on his body, and then picked up the laser gun and grenade.
He thought for a moment and threw the semi-automatic rifle to the beast.
With the laser gun, this powder gun is a bit cumbersome, so it is better to give the ratskin people a boost of their firepower.
The sword flashed, and the wire that tied ten was also split, and the tendons of the knife were extremely solemn.
Ten moved his hands and feet, then took the semi-automatic rifle that the beast handed him.
In the preparation room, the gunmen had already rushed to the perimeter of the water purification plant.
They were very experienced and did not rush into the gate in a swarm, but first threw a couple of grenades in.
"Hide."
The beast shouted, and then crawled to the ground behind a pillar, and the other ratskin people did the same.
But the grenade exploded, and instead of steel balls or nails, a bright light like the sun flew out.
The bottom nest is already dimly lit, and the ratskins are used to hiding in darker pipes or building crevices, making their eyes very vulnerable to bright light.
These flashbangs caught off guard, and immediately caused a surprise to the ratskin man who didn't have time to close his eyes.
"It hurts! Eye! ”
The screams came and went, and this time at least half of the ratskin people temporarily lost their combat effectiveness.
And the second wave of the enemy's blow followed.
Gunfire mixed with strange screams rang out intensively, and the gunmen outside had already rushed through the gate under the cover of flashbangs.
The rat-skinned people who had not been properly hidden, or who had moved too much because of the pain, were caught and turned into corpses under the flying bullets.
The rat-skinned man, whose eyes were less affected, immediately returned fire, and gunfire erupted in the entrance hall.
Chu Zihang hid behind a pipe, he counted silently for a few seconds, and then poked his head out sharply.
Bullets immediately fired, sending a few sparks on the metal pipes.
There was a slight tingling in the ear, which must have been bruised by a ricochet.
But I don't have time to worry about it now, I just risked getting a headshot, just to see where the enemy is standing.
Then, Chu Zihang saw two familiar faces.
