Chapter 350 – Celebration I

Chapter 350 – Celebration (I)

With a cold harrumph, Zero crouched and pulled the trigger, locking the machine in an instant. The muzzle shot out a beam of light, which surged forward at a speed of 2000 meters per second. As the beam drew an orange tail of light in mid-air, it formed into a spinning armor piercing bullet. The sh.e.l.l of the armor piercing bullet was wrapped in a layer of gray energy as it shot straight towards the enemy's heavy motorbike.

The knight in the carriage waved his hand and a continuous wall of earth was erected behind him. With such a defence, not to mention bullets, even the missiles would be able to intercept it. Unexpectedly, the armored bullets kept coming through the walls of earth, chasing the motorcycle.

Standing on the rooftop, Zero saw an energy flame erupt in the distance. Flames sprayed out, blowing up a ton of dust into the air and then slowly dispersing it. This blow, however, was as powerful as a small tactical missile. It was the special ability of the Shadow Wanderer, [Death's Critical Hit]. It added a layer of non-attributed energy to the bullet, causing it to instantly fuse and release an explosive power that was comparable to a missile.

However, not only did Zero's brows not relax, they creased even more tightly. The motorcycles and riders emerged as the smog cleared the street some two thousand meters away. The rider's entire body was wrapped in an earthen yellow energy layer. That was Earth Elemental Su's defensive force field. The Knight pointed to zero, then stuck out his thumb and pressed down heavily.

Only after making this provocative gesture did he turn the car around. However, he didn't dare drive on the straight road this time. Instead, he turned into the alleyway on the street, and in the blink of an eye, he was nowhere to be seen.

Su Yun clapped her hands, and the Colt disappeared. He stepped back into the shadows, and in the next moment was outside the library.

“How was it? Did you see who it was?” Feng walked over and asked.

The others had already boarded the SUV and were ready to leave. Zero shook his head and said, “The other party is wearing a helmet, so it's impossible to see his appearance. His body is more neutral, so it's impossible to tell him apart. The only thing he could be sure of was that his opponent was someone who possessed the ability of Earth Elemental Su, and his rank was not low either. Just by constructing the Earth Elemental Su's defensive force field, he was able to block bombs that were equivalent to small missiles. Also, he was at least 900 meters away from us when he killed those trash just now. If we do not have the special medium to activate his ability, that would mean that his ability's coverage would reach almost a kilometer. This is an incredible distance to cover. ”

“So you're saying that we don't have any idea at all. We can only go back and ask Chief Instructor, and see who it is that doesn't welcome us.” Feng laughed coldly.

Zero jumped into the car and said, “Let's go. If they were hostile to us, there would be more attacks like today. At the level we are at today, we're just testing our strength. ”

Feng nodded his head, agreeing completely with what Su Yun said. He found the door, sat in the driver's seat, and started the engine. The exhaust pipe of the off-road jeep exhaled a cloud of gray smoke, the jeep made a turn at its starting point, and took the lead to drive in the direction of the Asgard.

Outside the ruins of this city, there was a heavy motorcycle speeding across the endless wilderness. The Knight lowered his body to almost the same height as the car as the motorcycle accelerated. In a blink of an eye, the speed had increased to 400 kilometers per hour!

The knight was wearing a dark yellow camouflage uniform, which almost made him one with the wilderness. If it wasn't for the high-speed movement of the motorcycle, it would be hard to distinguish him from a distance. As he was driving, the motorcycle suddenly started to shake irregularly. The rider kept slowing down, but eventually the whole bike was lifted off the ground, skidded twice on the ground, and stopped in front of a sandbag.

The rider in the carriage fell to the ground and rolled a few times before stopping. He was lying on the scorching ground. A moment later, the knight sat up and took off his helmet. Beneath the helmet was a young face with a faint smile on its deep outline. He looked at his left hand, where blood was seeping out. The knight had to tear off a sleeve, break it down into a strip of cloth, and finally tie it around his arm to stop the bleeding.

He patted off the sand on his body and stood up, saying, “d.a.m.n it, shooting from 2130 meters away and continuously shooting through five walls of earth can still hit me. This isn't something that can be done by just relying on your sniping skills. The destructive energy layer added on the bullet should be the Shadow Wanderer right? How abnormal, before we went to battle, I seemed to have been in the wind shooter, and in just one battle, I advanced? ”

As he spoke, he walked over to the motorcycle and pulled the big guy up. After checking, the knight heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily the motorcycle was not broken, otherwise he would have to walk back.

In the evening, the heavy motorcycle drove into a deserted town. The size of the town was similar to the Angry Reef City, but much more dilapidated. The townspeople lived on scavenging, and there was an old military warehouse nearby with nuclear material such as uranium. However, the catastrophe caused the warehouse to be buried one hundred meters underground, which had already become the lair of the berserk giant rat.

The townspeople had to enter the warehouse at the risk of their lives and sell the uranium to other cities for money. However, this job was extremely dangerous. Apart from the threat of the berserk giant rat, there were no protective measures against the highly radioactive substance, so the residents of the town usually wouldn't live past the age of 30. Even so, it did not prevent people from entering the underground warehouse.

Since there was no income, there was no food. Without food, there was no difference between that and death. And even though entering and exiting the uranium deposit area would shorten their lifespan, they would at least be able to live for a while, which would be better than starving to death.

Under the control of their survival instinct, no one was willing to starve to death. When the knights arrived at the town, they saw a few refugees dragging their tired bodies towards them. They were covered with blood, both theirs and others'. When they left the town in the morning, the team had a total of fifteen people, but now there were only three people left.

At the entrance of the small town, there were already women and children looking in. When they saw that there was no husband among the returning group, they held the child and cried bitterly. However, after crying bitterly, he could only gather his emotions and walk home with the child in his arms.

A dead husband's woman and child would be compensated with two loaves of bread and a bottle of clean water, and a woman would need to work or remarry in order to live.

The Knight was very clear about this kind of lifestyle. After all, he was from this small town.

If he had not run into that man, the Knight thought, he would have become one of the uranium pickers. They could either die from the contamination in their prime, or be torn into pieces by wild hamster s in the underground warehouse. These were the two ultimate destinies of the man in the town.

The motorcycle was parked outside the town's only gas station. At dusk, the gas station's convenience store was dark. There was very little gasoline left in the tank. Old Peter, who was guarding the gas station, was napping on his old leather chair that he had picked up from G.o.d knows where. His snores could be heard outside the town.

The knight put his helmet on the locomotive, smiled, and went over and put a hand on old Pete's nose.

The old man who woke up from his shortness of breath roared, “Who the h.e.l.l doesn't want to live anymore? Be careful of my breaking your dog legs …”

After a short period of adaptation, his eyes gradually focused and he saw the Knight. The old man's shout turned into a grumble, “So it's you, Xiao Jin. Get your stinking hands away! ”

Laughing, he let go, and the knight suddenly gave Pitt a hug. “Long time no see, Uncle Pitt.”

“Yeah, I thought you were dead. How long has it been? Two years. ” Pitt muttered.

The knight named Jin patted Peter on the back and said, “Yes, it has been two years. This place is still the same as always. ”
