Chapter 282 Predators Attack
"Shut up, Ofen, I'm in a bad mood." The bearded man cursed.
At this moment, Gene pushed the door open and looked at Eric with a gloomy face. Seeing this, the two cowboys stepped aside with knowledge and interest. The beard seemed to have a premonition, and Huo stood up, looking at Gene with red eyes.
Gene finally said: "Eric, I thought I had made it clear enough before entering the town. We are here to buy food, try not to disturb the residents of the town."
The bearded man roared: "Those are just untouchables. There is nothing worth maintaining in this shitty town. I just took a gun from them, but gave a lesson to a kid who jumped out of nowhere. Captain you You are still on their side, don’t forget, you are an officer from Liberty Gate, not the Sheriff of Huiqiao Town!”
"It's because I'm an officer at Liberty Gate that I defend them. It's your fault, Eric. We're soldiers, not rioters. If you don't understand the difference, get out of here!" "Jin said angrily.
The bearded man laughed angrily: "Jin, you really think of yourself as a savior. Why, do you pity those guys? But I have to tell you, you can't help them at all, put away your overflowing sense of justice , that makes me sick."
"It's you who don't understand, Eric." Gene said loudly: "What is the Gate of Freedom established for? It is to fight for legal rights and interests from the Federation. If we use force to obtain resources from people, then We are worse than the federal government. As soldiers of Liberty Gate, we should lead by example!"
Eric snorted, shook his head and said: "Okay, Captain Jean, I don't want to continue to entangle you on this issue. You should save your excess sense of justice for those poor people. In this era, power is everything. There is no fairness at all, the weak should be exploited."
He picked up a rifle and walked towards the gate: "I don't want to stay here anymore. Every minute I'm with you makes me sick. You are just a poor bastard who can't see the situation clearly."
The bearded man kicked the door open, and he walked towards the town checkpoint: "What freedom, what, it's just excuses! Excuses!"
Genn gasped, shaking his head, trying to get Eric's words out of his mind. But something inside told him Eric wasn't all wrong. It's just that Jin didn't want to admit it, and the reason for the establishment of Freedom Gate wasn't that simple and noble. In that case, what he has always believed in and is willing to give everything for will collapse.
When Eric walked alone in the wasteland, he regretted it. Looking at the stars and lights of the small town in the distance, the bearded man wondered whether to turn back. It was already night, and the nearest stronghold to the Gate of Freedom would take at least two days on foot. The wilderness is not peaceful at night,
The danger of wandering cannot be dealt with with a machine gun in his hand.
"No, I don't want to see Gene's face, let him go to hell." Eric gritted his teeth and decided to dismiss this tempting idea.
After walking for a while, suddenly lights flickered in the wilderness under the night. Following a beam of light across the night, Eric squatted down vigilantly, and quickly trot to a nearby hillock and got down on the ground. The surface is very desolate, and few people will travel at night. And no matter who dared to cross the wilderness at night, it would not be the person Eric wanted to meet, especially when the identity of the other party was not clear.
He is reckless, but not stupid.
A moment later, there was the sound of an engine roaring from the far side of the wilderness. There were more and more beams of light, and as the evening wind was blowing, Eric could faintly hear some strange screams and laughter. He looked as far as the eye could barely see it was a convoy. As the convoy approached, the bearded man could clearly see that there were three or four off-road vehicles in the team. The vehicle has been refitted, with unknown animal bones or even human bones adorning the beasts in front of the vehicle, and tied with iron chains. There were flags on the side or tail of the car, because Eric couldn't see the pattern of the flag because it was too far away.
One of the off-road vehicles with a tapered baffle was also mounted with a rapid-fire cannon. The rough cannon body under the light made Eric's eyelids twitch.
Behind the off-road vehicle are some two-wheeled motorcycles. The riders on the locomotives have colorful hair dyed like bosozoku, and strange patterns painted on their faces. These locomotives are basically shared by two people, and the people sitting behind the car wield chain hammers or long knives, making almost crazy laughter.
Like a bunch of lunatics.
Eric suddenly remembered a name, predators! Those are some guys that roam the surface and eat people. They are lawless, almost like a dangerous species among humans. Even armed bandits are unwilling to encounter monsters like predators. Eric immediately lowered his head, almost touching his entire face to the ground. He doesn't want to be discovered by the predators, no one wants to be food on the table of the predators.
The convoy roared past not far away, and judging from the direction they were advancing, they would definitely pass through Huiqiao Town.
"Damn it, why did the predators come here. These man-eating bastards have to be thrown into hell!" Eric looked in the direction of the town: "Oufen and the others are still in the town, I have to inform them... No, it may be too late. God bless you, Ofen."
At this time Eric was glad that he left overnight.
In the town, Gene washed his face and temporarily put Eric's unhappiness behind him. Suddenly the cowboy came in and said in a panic, "Captain, you have to come and take a look."
"What's up?"
"An army, or bandits or something. I can't tell. In short, some guys are coming towards us. There are a lot of them, and they have weapons." The cowboy said anxiously.
Gene's expression was serious, and he walked out with him quickly, heading to the checkpoint outside the town.
At Peter's house, Allen had just finished a not-so-rich, but very heartwarming dinner. Here he is like returning to the Gobi town when he was a child, but the life of the people in Huiqiao Town is obviously much better. They are self-sufficient in food, and Alan ate bread with the aroma of wheat, sweet jam made with fresh fruits, and Wendy's freshly prepared vegetable salad.
The atmosphere of the dinner was very pleasant, and Allen told Wendy and Joe about how he met Peter. Of course, in order to avoid the worry of the mother and son, Allen skipped the section where Peter was cast idle. In fact, Peter and the frontier army who stayed at the advance base in the end can be regarded as regaining their value as soldiers. If the cooperation between the old and new parties continues to deepen, this frontier army may be included in the establishment of the Queen of Roses, and then Peter will have the opportunity to return.
Life is always full of hope.
While Wendy was packing the tableware, Joe took Peter's rifle and said, "Allen, can you teach me how to use a gun?"
"You want to use it?"
Joe nodded, raised his chest as high as he could and said, "Until Dad comes back, I will protect Mommy in his place!"
Before Alan's eyes, the gentle face of his mother Lan Ni flashed across. He nodded and said, "Then let's go to the yard."
There is a small yard behind the house. Allen took the rifle from the boy: "This gun is too difficult for you to use. Look, let me teach you how to use this."
He pulled out his concealed automatic pistol, shook it and said, "This is easier to use."
Following the simple method of teaching a boy to use a pistol, Alan smiled faintly as he watched Joe aim the gun in an orderly manner. Suddenly, the town bell rang. Alan knew that something must have happened, Wendy hurried to the yard and said, "Quick, let's go to the square."
"What's going on?" Allen asked.
Wendy said apologetically, "I don't know, but this bell is a signal for emergency evacuation, and something big must have happened."
"I'll go with you."
When Allen escorted the mother and son to the square of the town, most of the residents had already gathered here. The elderly, women, and children were gathered together, while the men were placed on the other side. Standing on the bell tower, Jin shouted to the people below: "Everyone, don't panic, we may be attacked. Now we need to protect the women and children first. As for the men, I need your help in fighting."
Seeing Allen, Gene handed over the commanding job to someone else. He quickly ran down the clock tower, came to Allen and said, "Sir, can you please do your part?"
"What happened?" Allen asked.
Gene pulled Alan aside and whispered: "It's the predators, a team of predators is coming towards the town. There are fifty or sixty of them. We are too few and need help. you……"
Jin suddenly found that the eyes of the young man in front of him suddenly became extremely bright, as if a fire was burning inside.
Allen's body trembled slightly, and Gene thought he was afraid. It's no wonder that the predators are notorious, and everywhere they go is wasteland. As long as you hear their names and deeds, it is normal to be afraid. But Alan spit out an inexplicable sentence from his mouth: "Predators... very good! Very good!"
Gene had no idea what was so good about it.
At this time, there was a booming explosion outside the town. From a distance, a flame shot up into the sky, lighting up the night with red.
"Damn, it's so fast," Genn yelled. "Men get your weapons and come with me, come on, don't let those guys come to town."
He ran towards the entrance of the town with the hunters in the town, and suddenly there were people around him, but Alan followed. The teenager easily crushed Eric's fist, and his strength was the boost Gene needed. With him joining, Bane felt that the chances of winning were better. He said to Allen: "I haven't officially introduced it yet. I am Jean. The second lieutenant of the Gate of Freedom."
"Federal Lieutenant, Allen."
Gene was taken aback, but at this moment he had no time to pay attention to how a federal second lieutenant came to Huiqiao Town.
