Chapter 133 - Hunters and foxes

If he was still alive, he would have to go down the river like Lance. Then Lange would be waiting for him downstream. That would be another good opportunity to wait and snipe at nothing.

Although he was no faster on the water than he was on the land, Lan Qi believed that when he saw the smoke from his own fire, he would definitely return to where he had gone with the aboriginal girl. Even if he didn't fall for the trap, Lan Qi was confident that he would have enough time to prepare for the next fight.

However, Lan Qi didn't know that if it wasn't for the fire he set, Zero would have passed through the Death Canyon and arrived at the downstream region a day or two earlier than Lan Qi. At that time, it would be hard to say who would hunt who.

However, the balance of fate was still balanced. Both sides had experienced a situation their opponents did not expect. It was still unknown who would be able to tip the scales of victory to their side.

Then again, who could control everything in these turbulent times? Not even a god, I'm afraid.

In the evening, Zero opened his eyes. He sat up, but felt a burning pain in his back. But perception was always good, and the pain in the body meant that both nerves and muscle fibers were functioning normally. Sometimes, suffering was another way to survive.

The flames of the flash village had been extinguished, and the charred buildings were deeply branded in Zero's eyes. Monnie was helping her throw the bodies into the pit she'd dug out in front of the village. Her fingers were still dripping with blood, and it was clear that she was the one who'd dug the grave for the whole village.

When Zero woke up and sat up, she was the first to notice, followed by Monnie.

Since Zero managed to stand up straight, Monnie was naturally happy. But then she began to cry, and Zero knew she was crying with joy at being alive. He patted Monnie's head in consolation.

His vision turned black, and it was Atasha who walked over. There was still a faint trace of sadness on the African woman's face, but her eyes were clearer than ever.

"You must be the one who brought this disaster upon us!" Atasha said directly.

Zero smiled bitterly and nodded his head. He lowered his voice and said, "I don't know what to say. In short … I'm very sorry. "

Before he could finish his words, a trace of ice-cold killing intent suddenly attacked him. A flash appeared before his eyes, but Atasha's vicious saw had already reached his chest.

"You can't pacify the souls of those who died just by saying sorry!" Atasha said coldly.

Zero pushed Mony away with a face full of protest, struggled to stand up and said, "What do you want?"

The African woman said with determination, "I want you to help me find him. That person is now my prey!"

Zero fell silent.

Atasha's face changed. "What? You don't want to?"

"It's very easy to find him, Atasha. As long as you follow me, you will meet him. " Zero sighed and said seriously, "But staying by my side is very dangerous. You are the only blood of the Shapeshiva, Atasha. I want you to stay and rebuild this pure land. I think that's what Gunter wants you to do, too. "

However, a moment later, she straightened even more. "What you said may be true, but if I do not do so, I fear that every night I will hear the wails of my people. They would blame me for not taking revenge for everyone! "

Zero knew that Atasha wouldn't change her mind, but the look in the girl's eyes explained everything. Suddenly he saw himself in her. When Leah committed suicide, Zero never wavered in his desire to avenge her. Even if his hands were covered in blood, even if the end of this road was a bottomless abyss, he had never regretted it.

As Atasha said, if nothing was done for the dead. Zero or Atasha, they couldn't get past him.

"Okay, but you have to listen to me on the way, including a detailed plan for revenge. "Believe me, that guy is no ordinary character. He's the most cunning fox." Zero said.

Atasha put away the saw, pointed at herself and said, "But I am the best hunter!"

"Self-confidence is a good thing, but if you overdo it, you become arrogant." Zero shook his head.

"Your words are very similar to those of the Prophet," she said.

But at the mention of Gunnar, the girl's eyes reddened again. But this time, she didn't cry. Not even a single tear flowed down her face.

"Well, let's see how we can kill this fox. First of all, we have to fill our stomachs before we have the strength to take revenge. Second, we have to rest for the night, and I'm afraid my wound will have to wait until tomorrow to be able to perform its most basic activities without worsening the injury. " Zero already knew about his injuries from Moni. Although the dead muscles had been removed, there was still some poison left in his body.

He would only start moving tomorrow morning. It was already zero trying to overestimate his body's recovery ability. Atasha knew this too and did not object.

It was night. Zero was sitting on the ground, leaning against a large tree that wasn't affected by the fire. He had just eaten a portion of dry food that Atasha had found in the village, which had been burned to the ground. Originally, these things were used by the clansmen for winter, but now that the village was gone, there was no point in preserving these foods.

The meat of some unknown mutated beast couldn't even be considered delicious after being dried by the wind. But the fiber and heat in the meat can quickly turn into nourishment, to help the recovery of zero as soon as possible. The snacks are very careful, almost dividing the meat into pieces and eating them with shredded meat, helping the food to be absorbed into the stomach.

A map was spread out in front of Zero's eyes. The torches burning with pine oil provided an unlit illumination, but that did not prevent Zero from seeing every important part of the map. His index finger pointed to the location of the Flash village on the map. From here to the north, if he didn't go through the Death Canyon, he would only have a winding river to travel through. The river was marked with Ramachan.

Monnie slept curled up beside Zero, who had taken off her tactical uniform. She was sleeping soundly, and everything around her was quiet. However, at this moment, light footsteps could be heard. Zero immediately found Colt, but only after he saw that it was Atasha did he remove his finger from the sniper rifle.

Atasha's entire body was covered in fine sweat, and her body was emitting a faint heat. Clearly, she had just come back from a violent movement. Of course, she wasn't going to exercise, she was going to track down Parkland's killer.

Zero looked at her, and the latter walked over and pointed to a certain location on the map.

That position was the upper reaches of the Lamarsson River!
