"What unlucky things are you saying? What are you talking about, dying? That's so unlucky, spit it out right now!" Zhang Hao said sternly.
"Ugh, ptooey ptooey ptooey."
"So good~"
Hehe~_~
Zhang Hao's lips curled slightly.
My heart warmed, and my gaze remained firm.
This time, I'm no longer fighting alone. I have Xiao Honglian, Fang Ping, Lao Wu, Meng Wu, and others supporting me.
There is no reason to fail.
Leizhou City.
I, Zhang Hao, have arrived!
Are we ready to welcome this powerful dragon crossing the river at dawn?
...
...
Leizhou City.
North of H District, on the street.
A dozen or so people were idly blocking the only way.
"Ugh, Captain, why is it always us? These missions are so unprofitable. It's been days and we haven't even caught a big fish. Why did the boss assign us this time?" Xiao Liu complained.
"Who told us not to pay tribute this month? Stop complaining, just keep a close watch. If there aren't any big fish, we'll just wait for a few small ones to get by," Zhao Haikuo said.
"That's easy for you to say. Leizhou is a godforsaken place. Who would want to come here? Everyone either goes to Area A to try their luck or goes to Linhai City to make a living. It's such a messed up life," Xiao Liu muttered.
"Stop talking nonsense! I've been banished here too, haven't I? Just keep watch, I'm going to take a piss."
"Yes, Captain."
Zhao Haikuo glanced at it.
After giving a few brief instructions, I chose to leave.
After turning left and right, I came to a small alley and knocked on the door.
Knock knock knock!
A delicate voice came from inside: "I love you, walking alone in the dark alley."
Zhao Haikuo said, "I love your inexpensive appearance."
"Oh, Captain Zhao, come in, please come in."
The beautiful women inside.
He opened the door and let Zhao Haikuo in, just about to close it.
The door was blocked.
A dark-skinned, rough-looking man held his hand between the cracks in the door, refusing to let the woman close it: "Captain Zhao, please, give me some food. My wife is starving to death. Just give me a little something, and I, Old Xu, will do anything for you."
"You're here again, you fucking bastard? When will this end?"
Zhao Haikuo looked over and said with a look of disgust, "I always come along when I'm in charge of catching the 'big fish,' what do I care if your wife lives or dies?"
“I have crystal cores, I have crystal cores, I can buy them.”
"I have some too, I'm out of food right now, and I still have to pay tribute to the chief, so get the hell out of here!"
Zhao Haikuo kicked him.
Bang!
A dull thud was heard.
But Lao Xu remained unmoved; he was no ordinary awakener.
He was a genuine Level 4 Awakener, while Zhao Haikuo was only Level 3, which was not enough to cause him much harm.
Before the end times.
He and his wife were in bed, enjoying the rare happiness of newlywed life.
Suddenly, the apocalypse arrived.
They were both lucky not to turn into zombies.
His wife was just an ordinary person, while Xu Huang was not only an Awakener, but also exceptionally talented, quickly reaching level four by absorbing crystal cores.
The initial reaction was too slow.
He lived on the half bag of rice and flour he had hoarded, and by the time he realized the importance of stockpiling food, it was too late.
He could have easily gone and robbed it.
Even Bai Kai, the leader of Zhao Haikuo's organization, was only a Level 4 Awakener.
Unfortunately, Xu Huang was too honest.
They can be described as extremely rigid and stubborn, possessing great strength but unwilling to do anything. At first, they would exchange the harvested crystal cores for food, but as food became increasingly scarce in the H area, no one was willing to exchange them anymore.
He is an awakened being, and his physique can last for many days.
But his wife isn't suitable.
It had been starving for several days, and if it hadn't been given a small amount of water during that time, it would have died long ago.
Xu Huang had no way out.
His wife was in critical condition, but he still adhered to his principles and refused to take her away.
To be honest, people like that aren't very likable.
Let alone others, even Zhao Haikuo thought this guy was really spineless.
If it were him.
He's more than just a thief.
He will also kill Bai Kai and become the leader of the organization himself.
Having a dozen beautiful women serve you, and having your subordinates offer you crystal cores and supplies every month—wouldn't that be wonderful?
He also tried to win him over with food.
However, Xu Huang wasn't stupid; he insisted on feeding his wife before he would surrender, which disgusted Zhao Haikuo.
He had absolutely no intention of sharing the food with ordinary people.
Because he felt it was a waste of resources.
"Please, brother, go find someone else, why do you have to come to me? What did I, Zhao Haikuo, do to offend you?" Zhao Haikuo said helplessly.
“I looked for others, but they all wanted me to kill my wife before they would give me food. I was a little unhappy, so I didn’t want to go back to them. Only you didn’t ask me to kill my wife, which made me feel like I could get food from you,” Xu Huang said.
"Did they also verbally abuse your wife? Did they think that feeding her was a waste of resources?"
"So, you're still not going to do it?"
"No."
"You're an idiot, I don't deal with idiots."
Zhao Haikuo said impatiently, "Nobody wants a fool like you to surrender. Get lost! If you don't leave, I'll call for help!"
"..."
Xu Huang remained silent.
She just held on tightly to his trouser leg and wouldn't let go.
Zhao Haikuo couldn't hold back any longer. He took out his walkie-talkie to call over Xiao Liu and his dozen or so brothers, but after calling several times, there was still no response.
"What's going on?"
Zhao Haikuo was just about to drag Xu Huang out the door.
Then they saw five people walking towards them from across the alley. Some had white hair and dyed nails, some had a cold aura, and some carried a fierce-looking halberd on their backs.
In short, they don't seem like good people.
The man in the lead was burly.
He was dressed in all black, with two enormous black and gold battle axes on his back.
A dark black crow was perched on its shoulder. The crow was quite large, and its eyes were lively.
"Captain, save me! Save me!" Xiao Liu cried out.
Seeing Xiao Liu being coerced, Zhao Haikuo said in a deep voice, "Who are you people? How dare you mess with people from our [Sky Wolf]? Believe me, my boss Bai Kai can take you down in a minute! Release him right now..."
Before he could finish speaking...
Pfft!
Someone threw out a halberd.
Before the other party could react, he killed him in one swift motion.
"Robbing our Dawn Society is bad enough, but daring to threaten us is just asking for trouble. They're really asking for it," Ye Tianfan said disdainfully.
Seeing this scene.
A dark-skinned, rough-looking man revealed a hopeful look in his eyes.
Xu Huang knelt on the ground, his eyes pleading: "Big shots, please save my wife! If you can give me even a little food, I, Old Xu, will do anything for you. Please!"
Zhang Hao: "..."
