Chapter 132 - Start of Hunting

It was Parkland's killer! Other than him, who else would write such words? The massacre of the Semitic people was a form of threat to Zero, and it also warned the other barbarian tribes within Death's Ridge not to interfere in the war between him and Zero.

However, Zero did not expect that just by staying in the Flash Clan for one night, he would bring about a disaster.

The men who had been nailed to the stakes looked surprised. However, a bullet hole in their brows caused their expressions to forever be frozen in the moment of death. Perhaps even in death, they did not know why they were being ambushed.

He looked back at Gunther and seemed to hear the old man's whisper.

"All my life, I have been searching for a pure land within my heart. Now that I have found it, I have stayed behind!"

Unknowingly, Zero's hand had already been clenched into a fist. Monnie, who had been standing next to Zero, suddenly discovered that Zero's entire body was emitting a very high temperature. Even the mud under his feet had become soft under the high temperature and had started to sink down.

Zero seemed to be unaware.

Atisa knelt on the ground, and two trails of tears appeared in the girl's eyes. His former home had now been completely destroyed. Looking at those familiar faces which had now turned into cold corpses, Atasha trembled all over.

With her teeth chomping in her mouth, she suddenly used all her strength to scream at the sky.

The ripples rolled away, and those who came into contact with them, regardless of whether they were mutated plants or beasts, all of them subconsciously retreated far away.

Finally, she came to the body. For her, Gunther, who had watched her grow up, was like an old man to her. Gunnar's vast knowledge was the reason that she worshipped him, and everything he did for the village earned her respect. Since she was a child, she had been willing to become the Prophet's personal bodyguard when she reached adulthood.

But now, less than two months before her coming-of-age ceremony, Gunnar had left her for good.

For this old man who was also father to father, Atasha could not tolerate anyone torturing him, not to mention using cruel means to kill him. In her heart, she swore to herself that no matter the cost, she would kill the murderer. Not only for Gunther, but for everyone in the village!

But before that, she had to keep the old man and everyone in check. At the very least, they could not allow their corpses to get invaded by the hungry mutated beasts.

She wiped away her tears and stood up. For a moment, it was as if this girl had grown up for ten years. His eyes were bloodshot, and his face had already begun to show signs of maturation and perseverance.

She reached for the nail that had been nailed to Gunter's body and began to pull it out.

Seeing her actions, Zero suddenly thought of something. Ye Zichen's expression changed, and Zero suddenly disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already beside Atasha. The African woman revealed an expression of surprise as she was pushed down by Zero.

At that moment, the sound of an explosion could be heard as the ship began to move at near zero speed.

In the midst of her thinning chest and flying hair, she saw Gunnar's body explode. The shockwave from the attack nearly crushed the Prophet's upper body into smithereens. Countless blood and chunks of flesh danced in the air, filling Atasha's line of sight.

"No!" A sharp, hoarse scream escaped her mouth.

They fell to the ground, and at once she pulled away from them. When she reached the body of Gunter, which had only the lower half of her body, the girl fell to her knees. At this moment, Mony's alarmed cry came from behind. She realized that if it hadn't been for the fact that he had knocked her over, she would most likely be a corpse now.

Atasha quickly looked over to where Zero was lying on the ground, as if she had been knocked unconscious by the shock wave. His back was bloody and he looked badly hurt. She pulled away from Monnie, who had taken off her zero-size tactical uniform.

Seven or eight shards of hand grenade fragments were impressively inserted into Zero's back. It was obvious that the murderer of the village had set a clever trap. This trap should have been used to call for Zero, but unexpectedly, it was triggered by Atisa. But in order to save her, Zero had even fallen into the opponent's trap.

It had to be said that the set of battle uniform that he had bought at zero cost was truly worth it. Less than a meter from where the explosion had taken place, the fragments from the grenade hidden in Gunther's body were still unable to enter his body.

The metal coils in the layers of the suit had a certain buffering effect, to the point where the pieces were inserted into the surface of the zero muscle. But this was only a small wound, and what made Atasha frown was that these few pieces of broken pieces were all covered with a layer of sparkling blue liquid. If she remembered correctly, this thing should have been smeared on the surface of the flower of death to leave behind this kind of juice.

The flower of death has a strong source of radiation, and now the slivers of its sap stick into the back of the zero. The wound on Zero's back was already covered with a layer of light blue that was spreading, indicating that his muscles had been exposed to radiation and had become necrotic. If he didn't deal with it in time, Zero would be dead very soon.

And so, to Monnie's surprise, she suddenly pulled out a crude knife that she had pinned to her thigh.

"What are you doing?" Monnie exclaimed, pulling out her own pistol and pointing it at her.

"I'm saving him, don't get in his way. Otherwise, don't blame me for his death!" The sharp knife in her hand was stabbed down like lightning.

But her grip on the knife was extremely good, and she only managed to cut three parts into the meat, following the movement of the muscle fibers on her back. With the same skill as a surgeon, she used the homemade knife to pick out the broken pieces from Zero's body and clear away his dead muscles. Finally, she took another powder from her body and sprinkled it on Zero's wound.

Monnie then took a bundle of sterile bandages from the medical kit he'd prepared for her and together with Atasha he bound the zero wound tightly to prevent a second infection. When she was done, she moved Zero to a place in the valley where the fire had not yet reached, and she began to collect the corpses for her people.

She had done all she could. As for whether or not she could survive the radiation infection, it all depended on his willpower.

At the same time, Lan Qi was lying flat on a raft, moving down the river.

The White-headed Eagle was waiting for an opportunity to attack from the left and right, but Zero was extremely alert. Lan Qi had only made a few sniping attempts before he was immediately detected by zero. However, he was not discouraged. From the very beginning, Lan Qi knew that it was not easy to snipe at zeros who also had expertise in this area. But he was patient, and Lan Qi believed that as long as it was a person, they would make mistakes.

From all the information he had gathered, Lan Qi was certain that the cold and aloof Zero was actually a person who valued friendship. It could be seen from the dead Leah, and from all the things Zero had done. Lan Qi was confident that with the chivalry of the old era and the coldness and ruthlessness of the new era, Zero would be his fatal weakness.

In Lange's opinion, if he was the one who had clashed with Sauron that time. The White-headed Eagle wouldn't care about the life and death of a woman. It would use other methods to kill Saurun on top of the ruins. But Zero could not do it. He had even put himself in a disadvantageous position because of a woman. In Lan Qi's eyes, this was definitely a foolish action. However, the more foolish the opponent, the higher his chances of success were.

So Lange had today's Slaughter Village and set up a level bomb in Gunter's body. He was convinced that, with zero in mind, he would put the old man down, even though Gunnar was already a corpse. However, Lan Qi didn't know that Atasha had triggered the trap, but it wasn't very different from what he had expected.

Zero was still injured, and it was hard to tell whether he was dead or alive.

As for Lan Qi himself, he had slaughtered the villagers, set fires, and set up traps. All of this had consumed a large amount of his energy and stamina. At the very least, he wouldn't be able to follow or snipe at Zero closely for a short period of time. So Lange built himself a raft and floated down the Ramson River, which ran halfway across Death's collar.
