Chapter Ninety-Four: The Stranger in the Old City
Updated: 2012-08-20
Zero jumped off the minaret of the house and carried Colt around a block to the uphill part of the entrance.
Behemoth slowly let go of Moni after making sure that the dungeon was complete. The previous shock had already woken up Monnie, and when she saw Zero, she hurriedly ran to his side.
Zero pulled Moni behind him, and he looked at Behemoth thoughtfully.
The Behemoth remembered Zero, and in Behemoth's memory, Zero and Campbell were in a group. But Behemoth also knew that Zero had just saved him, and that he was the first human willing to help him, and Behemoth couldn't find a reason to do anything to Zero. So the two and the beast looked at each other like this, and in the distance, the garrison that had already controlled the situation began to re-establish order in the dungeon.
This time, because of the raid of the wolf thieves, Titan City suffered serious losses. In addition to the central plaza and a large area of buildings and blocks in the direction of the hotel that were damaged by the fighting, the most serious were the dozens of children who were taken captive by wolves. No matter what era it is, children are the future of Shijie. And for Titan City, these children are the hope of the city's future.
Titan City is quite furious, and it seems that this time, they will not settle for the wolf thieves.
From afar, watching the garrison split up in a group in the direction of the entrance, Zero finally spoke: "If you can understand our language, leave now." Or would you rather stay with Campbell until he sells him to the next master?"
Behemoth let out a roar of rage, which made Zero more sure that the beast in front of him could understand human language. This surprised him, and it was clear that Behemoth had an intelligence that ordinary mutants did not have. If the southwest land is full of intelligent species like it, then human beings may no longer be able to roam the earth as before.
Glancing deeply at Moni, Behemoth let out a soft cry of goodbye. Following the giant beast turned around and flew in the direction of the entrance, Behemoth crashed directly into the elevator room, looking at the two deformed alloy doors, and thinking that the restoration budget of Titan City would probably increase by another expense.
"Let's go, let's go back to the hotel, it's all over. Zero Pull Feng Moni's hand said.
Titan City has never been so lively, but this lively scene is due to disaster, so such excitement is not worth rejoicing. In addition to the high-level leaders of the city, it is the adventurer Campbell who is thundering now. He lost Behemoth for no reason, which made the merchant hate the wolf thief. But those bandits were not something a businessman like him could deal with, so Campbell had nothing to do but be angry.
It seemed like it was really over, but Zero's mind always flashed back to the red-haired man with the giant hammer in his mind. He knew that the time between himself and the wolf thief was not so fast to end.
On the same night that Titan City was in turmoil, a strange traveler appeared at the Alberon Tavern in Raging Reef.
It was a black man, with white hair and a white beard, and a serious face. The traveler was carrying a sniper rifle, which was more rugged than the usual Falcon sniper rifles, and the large-caliber barrel looked terrifying and hideous. It is conceivable that if this gun is hit, it will leave a huge wound on the body that cannot be healed.
This is Lan Qi's favorite spear "Wild Vulture", which has followed the bald eagle for many years, and there are countless people and beasts who have died under the guns of the wild eagle. And this time, there will be an additional list under the vulture's gun.
Zero!
The bald eagle wears a knee-length black trench coat and a felt hat on its head. He pulled the brim of his hat very low and, as unobtrusively, sat down at the bar and asked for a whiskey. Sitting in the corner, as the bartender pushes the whiskey in front of him, Lan Qi pops out a gold coin.
Gold coins are the continent's currency minted and issued by the Parkland chaebol, and in this turbulent era, except for the digital currencies issued by the Dark Council and a few large chaebols that can be used throughout the continent, only gold, a hard currency, has the same effect.
One such gold coin is worth about two hundred dollars.
For a bartender in Albert, that's a lot of money.
The bartender quietly flicked the gold coins into his pocket, and then asked in a low voice, "What service do you need?"
Lan Qi pulled out a photograph from his jacket pocket, and on it was a sideways portrait of Zero. He moved the picture under the bartender's nose and asked, "I'm looking for someone, I heard that he came to this city, I don't know if you've seen him." ”
The black man casually pulled out another coin and moved it between his fingers, which the bartender interpreted as a hint. As long as he provides accurate information, he will be able to get this additional reward.
He looked at the person in the photo carefully, and quickly recognized Zero: "He did stay in our Fury Reef City, but I heard that he has left. ”
"Where are you going?"
"I don't know, but the person probably knows. Five meters away, another customer at the bar pouted.
It was Victor, and the doctor had just come to the bar tonight to have some time at the bar, but he bumped into the evil star.
Noting Victor's appearance, Lance flicked the gold coin into the bartender's pocket and said, "Bring me a bottle of whiskey, not water." ”
The bartender nodded again and again, and hurriedly went down.
Lan Qi drank like this, and stayed in the tavern and watched Victor silently. When the doctor stood up and left, Bald Eagle followed suit and walked quietly behind Victor.
Victor was a little drunk, but that didn't stop him from being followed by a black man. The unfamiliar face waryed the doctor, who deliberately turned into an alley and gently pulled out his pistol.
The moment a figure suddenly flashed around the corner, Victor raised his pistol at the other party.
He just wanted to shout "biedong" in his mouth, but the reaction of others was far above him. A rough palm grabbed Victor's wrist, and the force of the burst made it impossible for the doctor's arm to remain in a flat position. Seeing that the muzzle of the gun was suddenly aimed at his eyebrows, Victor's drunkenness immediately woke up for the most part.
"Put down your gun, or do you want to reward yourself with a bullet?"
Lan Qi's fingers pressed on the trigger of the pistol at the same time, and as long as he pressed it hard, tomorrow Victor would find the body that Victor shot himself in Fury Reef City. The doctor didn't want to make news himself, so he obediently let go of his finger and let the pistol fall to the ground.
"Who are you?"
Victor had just asked the first question when the black man suddenly slammed his head against the wall. The bald eagle was confident in his strength, and this knock would not kill Victor, but it would break his head and bleed. Sure enough, Victor's forehead immediately blossomed. Before he could scold, the whole person had already been pulled over by the black man, and he had a powerful knee blow to his stomach.
Feeling that the internal organs and intestines in his stomach were tangled together, Victor was speechless for a while, and collapsed to the ground with a pale face and bowed into a shrimp shape.
Lan Qi squatted down for a long time, pressed the index finger of Victor's right hand with one hand, and took out the zero photo with the other hand and asked coldly, "Where did he go?"
"I don't know him!" a forced smile appeared on Victor's distorted face, and the next moment, the smile turned into a scream.
Lan Qi mercilessly crushed the doctor's finger, and Victor's index finger was pressed against the back of his hand at 90 degrees. Ten fingers connected to his heart, and the intense pain almost didn't make him faint.
