Chapter 493: You Are Not the First
Blood Fist Gang.
The leader of the gang is a man named "Scar-Eye Daddy". He used to be a sailor and later became the third mate of a merchant ship. One time when he went out to sea and encountered a storm, he was the only one who was lucky enough to be rescued. One of his eyes was blinded and he was left with a shocking scar.
After returning to the Covenant City, Scar-Eye Daddy no longer went out to sea. He contracted some loading and unloading work at the dock, and this kind of livelihood required a group of people to grab the work.
In the fight, the Blood Fist Gang was established, and Scar-Eye Daddy was elected as the boss.
Now the Blood Fist Gang's sphere of influence is not limited to the dock, but also grabbed a lot of shares in the gray industry. In the struggle, they killed many people, and many people were killed.
With the rapid rise of post-sequence forces, the fight between gangs is not limited to ordinary people.
The emergence of mechanical modified people and genetic mutants has forced the gangs to save money and tighten their belts to introduce this kind of power that can win.
Angelica's father was a sailor who was on the same ship with Scar-Eye Daddy and died in the shipwreck.
There are many children like her.
Scar-Eye Daddy raised all these children when he came back.
When the children grew up, most of them joined the Blood Fist Gang, and Angelica was one of them.
For Angelica, Scar-Eye Daddy was her father.
…
Angelica, who had memorized the space free radical formula all night, yawned as she came to the dock. There is an empty warehouse here that is the training room of the Blood Hand Gang's Slash Team, and sometimes some smuggled goods are stored.
When Angelica walked into the warehouse, she saw Scar-Eye Daddy leading people to move cargo boxes at first sight.
"Dad!" Angelica yawned again and greeted sleepily: "Is it something valuable?"
"Some parts of a large steam engine, shipped out tonight." Scar-eyed dad slapped Angelica on the shoulder: "What happened? You look listless and have no motivation at all. This is not my Angelica."
At this time, Angelica could still feel the magic symbols shaking in front of her eyes. She shook her head: "Dad, you can't imagine what I went through yesterday. I was forced by a magician who suddenly appeared to recite the magic formula for an entire night. If I didn't recite it correctly, I would be thrown into a big water ball and spin around.
Oh my God , what did I do wrong to punish me like this! "
Scar-eyed dad comforted him, "This is really a terrible nightmare, it must be caused by your friend from the Royal Academy leaving. I'll give you another day off, go back and have a good rest."
Hearing that dad asked her to go back and rest, Angelica forgot to explain that it was not a dream: "The assessment is about to start, I can't waste any more time. My goal is to be the first, and I want the best gene mutation potion."
Scar-eyed dad spent a lot of money to buy only three gene mutation potions, one of which was the latest potion, and the other two were old models, and the effect was uncertain because of the long time.
Facing the motivated Angelica, Scar-Eye Daddy pulled her aside and whispered, "Angelica, I have always regarded you as my daughter. I hope you will withdraw from the competition for the first place."
Angelica was puzzled: "Why?"
Scar-Eye Daddy hesitated and said, "This is not only a competition for the first place, but also a competition for the next leader of the Blood Fist Gang. Facing those opponents with post-sequence power, we old guys can no longer fight. We must train a strong successor to defend the current territory of the Blood Fist Gang."
Angelica said firmly, "I can!"
"No, you can't."
"Why?"
"You are a woman. Although you are better than most men, you need to work harder than men to prove your excellence. The Blood Fist Gang can't give you the time to prove yourself. The elders will not give you a chance to prove yourself. "
Angelica was anxious: "This is not fair!"
"This world is inherently unfair." Scar-eyed Daddy suppressed Angelica who was about to go berserk: "In fact, the three potions have been decided, and there is no one for you. But as long as you don't fight for the first place, you can beat one of the other two, and the rest will be left to me."
Angelica calmed down and asked: "Who is the first?"
"Felipe."
"Kaylor's son."
"It's him! Kaylor is my deputy, and Felipe's excellence is second only to you. He is the most suitable candidate for the successor of the gang. If he can get the first place, he can not only get the best gene mutation potion, but also accumulate his prestige. "
Angelica understood that the so-called random knife team was actually the team trained by the gang for Felipe.
"I..."
Angelica didn't know how to respond.
I have worked so hard for so long just to fight for that first place. Not only for a potion, but also to prove myself to my father and let him see my excellence.
But everything he did now became so ridiculous.
"Go back and have a rest. There is nothing important in the gang recently." Dad patted Angelica on the shoulder.
"Okay, okay..."
Angelica walked out of the warehouse in a daze and returned to her residence like sleepwalking.
Knowing what happened, Helot said: "Next, you should have a lot of time to study space. Now continue to memorize the formulas and review what you memorized last night."
Helot waved his hand and unfolded the space free radical formula.
Angelica looked at Helot: "Do you know I will come back?"
"..."
"Do you know what Daddy said to me?"
"..."
"Tell me, did I choose to give up?"
"It's not important."
"No! It's important!" Angelica stared at Helot and said loudly: "If you really come from the future, tell me... did you choose to give up?"
Helot looked at Angelica and said softly: "Aunt Angelica... Only you know your choice. My choice is to save you in the future. You are very important to me. Let's get started quickly. You really don't have much time to waste."
Helot's sincerity touched Angelica more.
She slowly approached and looked at this face that seemed very familiar: "You, are you really from the future?"
"It's your future!"
Angelica hugged Helot, with her ear against his chest.
"Even the feeling of hugging you is so familiar, I really began to believe that you are Irina's son, from the future."
"It's from..."
Angelica let go of Helot: "It's from my future! I don't know what the difference is, but it doesn't matter. If you want me to study space well, accompany me to the bar for a drink. As long as you accompany me to drink happily, I will listen to you and learn whatever you want me to learn."
"Alcohol makes it difficult for people to concentrate."
"But now I have to vent by getting drunk. Let's go... Irina gave me a lot of money, I'll treat you to a drink, go to the most lively bar in the Covenant City!"
