Chapter 242: The Art of Compromise

While Van der Linde was racking their brains to rescue their companions, Leon and the three sisters were exploring the forest north of the ranch.

The three sisters were tired of playing with the small animals in the ranch, and finally remembered the UFO they mentioned before, and pestered Leon to take them.

Achina stayed on the ranch because she realized through the past few days that she might not like to go out that much. She prefers to live in a large mansion and live a comfortable life, occasionally making rounds of her property to see if her subordinates are working hard.

Leon says she's the spider queen who only stays in her nest and waits for her prey to take the bait.

Archyna felt that this sentence was a mockery of her big breasts and big ass, so she pressed Leon in her arms and ravaged her.

The scenery in the forest is quite good, and Bella also hunted a fat and strong deer.

Unfortunately, there are no high-quality legendary animals in this area.

In view of the fact that the three sisters had just learned to ride horses, Leon deliberately slowed down his journey and played as he went, leaving the ranch at noon and arriving at his destination in the evening.

The place where you can see UFOs is a forest hut at the foot of the mountain, which is named 'Hani's Sanctuary' on the map.

Next to the house is a small pool, the water is clear, and there are many small fish in it.

The wooden hut had been abandoned for many years, the doors and windows were rotten, the slatted roof was mostly detached, and only a few wooden beams were left to support it.

There were two broken barrels in front of the door, and an old carriage with lost wheels was not far away.

Leon knew what was in the hut, so he didn't plan to go inside, and let the three sisters explore on their own, as he had done last time, while he went to the waterhole to deal with the deer.

Seeing that her lover was so casual, Bella knew that there would be no danger inside, and walked in with her sisters in a hurry.

As a result, the expected aliens did not appear, let alone any UFOs.

The most of the things in the wooden house were the corpses that had long since been ossified, and it was roughly estimated that there were at least a dozen of them.

Most of them lie peacefully on their beds, without any signs of struggle before dying.

There was only one skeleton in a seated position, draped in a cloak, and the table in front of it was filled with strange bottles and cans.

Burning candles can be seen all over the room, and a thick layer of wax oil has condensed around them.

A discerning person can understand at a glance that this is some kind of religious gathering, and with so many corpses and bones, it is definitely a cult.

The wind from the outside kept squeezing in through the cracks in the planks, like the twisted howl of a cultist before he died, causing the scene in front of him to seem even more eerie.

But it's just weird, and the three sisters won't be frightened by these things.

In addition to being bold, don't forget that they used to be members of Miranda's church, and the bones are too childish.

It's just that the way these people died was indeed unique, which aroused the three sisters' strong interest in inquiry.

So they started searching for something useful.

Due to the passage of time, most of the items in the house have lost their original value, or have deteriorated or become tattered.

Just when the three sisters thought that they had been deceived by Leon, the attentive second lady found a defaced and yellowed letter paper under the pile of bottles and cans.

Printed on it is a passage that roughly means:

[In the second hour under the half-moon, the time-traveling galactic navigator of the galaxy, the Great Savior, will descend here.]

In due course, those who believe in Him will be able to leave behind their burdensome flesh and go to the realm of bliss.

There lived a carefree life until 2000 AD, then returned to Earth and met the new Chosen One at the summit of Shane. ]

Through this sermon article, which pretends to be a ghost, the cause of death of the bones of the wooden house is also basically clear.

They voluntarily gave their lives in the hope that time voyagers, that is, aliens, would bring their souls into the so-called Elysium, so there was no trace of rebellion at the scene.

The three sisters excitedly informed Leon of what they had discovered, and urged him to visit Mount Shan.

This kind of interlocking incident is really fascinating, and they believe that there will be new clues at the summit of Shane.

Leon was indifferent, and even set up a tent and campfire in the open area next to the wooden house.

The three sisters jumped to their feet in a hurry, beating their backs and pinching their shoulders, and Daniela did not hesitate to promise to warm the bed for him and Bella when he returned.

After tossing for a long time, Li Ang slowly said the reason:

"The second hour under the half-moon represents 12 midnight."

Without much explanation, the three sisters already understood what he meant that the aliens would be back tonight.

"I'm so stupid, why didn't I figure out such a simple thing!"

Daniela looked annoyed, now she is really going to become her sister's dowry girl.

Bella said proudly: "This is what you promised to warm our bed, and you can't regret it when the time comes!" ”

Kassandra looked sympathetically at her frustrated sister.

The improvised camp was quickly set up, and the prepared venison was served on the grill.

The four of them sat around the fire and chatted, listening to the insects and birds in the forest, while waiting for midnight to fall.

The process of waiting is torturous, but fortunately, the three sisters who are not idle for a moment are not bored.

Leon doesn't really expect much from aliens.

R Star has always had a problem, likes to dig holes, but never fills them, just let players guess, which can be called easter eggs, or it can be called the bad taste of the production staff, whether it is "Red Dead Redemption 2" or the game that can't be said, this is the case.

Speaking of which, Dead Redemption and GTA seem to be in the same worldview.

At around 11:50 p.m., Leon asked the three sisters to wait in the wooden house, where the alien flying saucer would be invited, and he would change into a black knife and hide in the forest.

When the clock struck midnight, a disc suddenly appeared above the hut.

Even Leon didn't see how it appeared.

It is shaped exactly like the flying saucer of many urban legends, silver-black, with a metallic sheen and a ring of bright spotlights around the edges, which would have been impossible to make with the manufacturing technology of 1899.

The bottom of the saucer emitted a glowing green light like an aurora, completely enveloping the wooden house, as if scanning for something.

The three sisters were so excited that they waved their arms to greet the aliens.

It was unknown if there were aliens in the saucer, but it must have sensed that the three sisters were not mortals, so it immediately stopped falling and began to climb rapidly.

How could Li Ang let it go, bent down and accumulated, and the whole person jumped up like a rocket.

By the time the three sisters ran out of the hut, they were no longer visible in the sky.

At the end of the field of vision, a flame-colored meteor with a long tail could be vaguely seen chasing a green point of light.

"Brother-in-law won't have an accident, right?"

"It should be no problem, if you can't catch up, he'll come back on his own, let's wait here."

At the same time, on the outskirts of Blackwater.

Arthur and several members of the Fan Gang try to rescue their companions.

After the bounty hunter caught Sean, he did not directly hand him over to the American authorities or Pinkerton, but wanted to sell him at a high price, and by the way, he used him as bait to seduce the rest of the Fan Gang.

Arthur and the others will plan and prepare to make a move on the way the bounty hunter takes Sean back to his camp.

However, just as the action is about to begin, a perceptive Charles discovers an anomaly in the night sky.

"Look, what's that!"

Trelawney glanced up and explained disapprehantly: "Meteors are just very common astronomical phenomena, and I have seen a knowledgeable astronomer in Saint-Denis, who said."

Javier interrupted, "But they seem to be heading for Sean." ”

In the next second, on the bank of the river where Sean and the bounty hunter were, terrifying red meteors fell from the sky with raging fire.

A loud bang shook the eardrums, swept smoke obscured the vision, dirt and gravel splashed, and fire rose into the sky.

The shock wave, visible to the naked eye, spread out in all directions, and the otherwise calm water's edge instantly boiled.

Several members of the Fan Gang hid in a boulder before they were lucky enough to avoid the fallout.

"Fack! Fack! Fack! Go and save people! ”

Arthur cursed and ran out of the hot hideout, knowing that Sean would not survive such a terrible natural disaster, but he still retained the last glimmer of hope.

Charles and the others could not persuade him, so they could only follow him to the center of the disaster.

The deeper you go, the more shocking the sight becomes, the solid rock melts and reveals a chilling sparkle, the black earth rises from the depths of the earth, the trees and vegetation have long since turned to powder, the river is half dried up, and the scorched riverbed is littered with charred dead fish.

The smell of burning sulfur permeated his nostrils, and sparks and ashes wafted through the air.

Arthur felt like the soles of his shoes were about to melt.

Behind him, Trelawney shouted anxiously, "We can't stay here any longer, it's too much, Pinkerton in Blackwater will definitely send someone." ”

"Wait!" Charles's gaze passed through the billowing smoke: "There seems to be a person inside!" ”

Arthur, who was at the forefront, also saw it.

It was a tall man, dressed in an extremely distinctive dark blue scale armor, standing in the middle of the crater, holding an unnamed round crystal in his hand, and his expression seemed to be a little confused.

And the Irish boy they were trying to save was curled up at the man's feet shivering.

As for those bounty hunters, they didn't see it, and they were probably burned to ashes.

Arthur lowered his center of gravity and slowly approached, and when he saw the man's familiar face, his whole body was like a lightning strike.

Leon sensed a few members of the Fan Gang early on, and he put away the crystals and smiled at them.

"What a coincidence, Morgan and gentlemen, we meet again."

"It's a pity that now is not a good time to catch up, I still have something to do here, I have to go first, I'm sorry."

With that, the pitch-black wings opened, and then the whole person disappeared into the night sky.

Tonight with hazy moonlight and stars like the Milky Way, it is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.

Trelawney still hadn't figured out why his companions had such strange expressions.

Shouldn't you be as scared as he is?

Charles looked in the direction of Leon and explained faintly, "He is Lee. The gentleman. ”

!!!!!

Trelawney's body instantly lost strength, and he felt the urge to kneel.

Charles and Javier seem to be calm, but in fact they are not much better, only Arthur still retains some sanity.

"Take the Irish boy and let's go!"

A few minutes after the Fan Gang left, Blackwater's law enforcement forces arrived belatedly.

After a careful carpet search, the incident was characterized as an accidental meteorite fall, and due to the fact that it took place in the inaccessible wild, no one was harmed except for a few hapless bounty hunters and a prisoner.

However, there are many rumors in the market that on the night of the incident, they saw a meteor chasing a flying saucer.

On the other side, Leon returned to the cabin in the woods.

The three sisters, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly gathered around him and worriedly checked whether he was injured.

The aliens and flying saucers have long been forgotten by them.

"Don't touch it, where are you caring about me, obviously trying to take advantage of me!" Li Ang helplessly dodged the six dishonest little hands.

The third lady is very happy, and it's good that people are fine.

Li Ang was a little worried because the flying saucer didn't catch up.

It's been a long time since he's missed a shot like this.

The alien, who had never been seen from beginning to end, seemed to have mastered the space leap technique, much faster than him.

But today is not without any gains.

In order to prevent him from continuing to chase, the alien offered to send him a gift.

[Item: Magic Crystal]

[From the game: Final Fantasy VII.: Remastered]

For the sake of the World Beacon, Li Ang stopped chasing relentlessly, and just found out that Arthur and the others were doing something in Blackwater Town, so he simply helped them speed up the progress.

"Let's go, let's go back to the ranch first."

Bella was a little unsatisfied, hugged him and said coquettishly: "Let's go to Shanen Mountain tomorrow to have a look, okay?" ”

The eldest lady's words reminded Leon that he seemed to be able to 'blackmail' the aliens for something.

The wool just has to hold on to one and pull hard, after all, there is no such shop after this village.

When the four of them returned to the ranch, it was already dark, and the three sisters didn't have as much energy as Li Ang, so they had to catch up on sleep.

Li Ang had no intention of resting, so he simply found the Nether Dog and reported Han Sen's recent situation.

From the mouth of the Nether Dog, he learned that the town of Rhodes has become his territory, and the original rulers of the Braithwaite family and the Gray family have been suppressed by force, and then through bribery and other means, Han Sen is currently the rightful mayor of Rhodes.

His next target was St. Denis.

Controlling these two places is equivalent to mastering most of Lemoen (the prototype Louisiana), and it will be much easier to do anything at that time.

It's just that St. Denis, as the largest city and port in the western region, will definitely not be able to conquer by force, and can only be conquered by indirect means, similar to the Arasaka Company to Night City.

Railroad and oil tycoon Cornwall, Hansen also managed to get in touch, but Cornwall asked to meet his boss behind the scenes.

Leon considered whether to give this big capitalist a face.

Cornwall has a large area of undeveloped land in the west, and it has several oil fields and minerals on hand, so it doesn't hurt to see each other.

Finally, Leon informed Han Sen to send someone to the Indian reservation in the north and Anissberg in the south.

Anyone with a little bit of history knows what the Indian reservation is for, and there is a large number of Chinese laborers in the vicinity of Anissberg.

Yesterday I went to the big dart to pick up materials.,It's late to come back.,Tomorrow it's a normal update.,Tomorrow I'll make up for what I owe.
