Zhang Shi looked at the other group of people who suddenly rushed out with a puzzled expression. He turned to look at Wu Qing, who simply shook her head, indicating that she did not recognize these people.
Seeing this, Zhang Shi no longer hesitated and fired a burst of shots at Redneck. The surrounding survivors quickly moved far away, afraid of being injured by the aftershocks.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Zhang Shi pulled out his old musket and sprinted towards Redneck. Redneck recognized Zhang Shi and didn't dare to be careless at all. His musket was already loaded, and he raised it to aim at Zhang Shi.
Just as the redneck was about to fire and aim, Zhang Shi vanished from his sight.
"Behind you!"
The adjutant shouted a warning anxiously, but it was too late.
Old Duan possessed the combined buffs of Triple Strike and Shadow Step. A flash of light swept across the scene, the blade reaping the head of Redneck like the Grim Reaper's scythe.
Zhang Shi took a slight step back, avoiding the blood gushing from Redneck, and then quickly stepped forward to seize his musket.
One-Eyed Dragon and his adjutant, having witnessed Redneck's gruesome death, charged at Zhang Shi, their faces flushed and wielding sharp blades. Fearing they might possess powerful firearms, Zhang Shi temporarily avoided their attacks, dodging and weaving to evade their assault.
When the 5 seconds were up, Zhang Shi activated Shadow Step again, flashed to Wu Qing's side, casually picked up the compound bow, and fired another arrow at the one-eyed dragon.
The one-eyed man was injured at the beginning and was very wary of Zhang Shi. As soon as Zhang Shi disappeared, he moved quickly, fearing that Zhang Shi would repeat what had just happened and run behind him to behead him.
"Whoosh!"
The arrow grazed his cheek, even leaving a tiny cut on his face.
The one-eyed dragon was furious, but with the presence of the taunt totem, his attacks were redirected to the protective shield, making it impossible for him to cause any damage to Zhang Shi. Meanwhile, Zhang Shi would frequently launch sneak attacks, occasionally darting out from behind to deliver a fatal blow, leaving the one-eyed dragon completely helpless.
On the other side, Tang Hao was already in a killing frenzy, wielding his broadsword horizontally and relentlessly hacking at Chen Beipan. Chen Beipan, on the other hand, didn't recognize Tang Hao at all and was inexplicably being chased by him like a madman. He even had a cut on his shoulder and didn't have the strength to fight back.
Within the mutual aid society, some quick-witted individuals discovered that Redneck had been killed by Zhang Shi, and even Chen Beipan was being chased and hacked. Knowing that the situation was hopeless and not wanting to become cannon fodder, they quietly retreated and fled into the depths of the dense forest.
Gradually, more and more members of the mutual aid society deserted, and the situation was gradually taken over by the people of the Light Alliance.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Chen Beipan gritted his teeth and activated a scroll. A ripple appeared around his body, which shook Tang Hao's greatsword away.
He surveyed the crowd with a gloomy face, his gaze sweeping over Tang Hao, Liu Yu, Zhang Shi, and even the one-eyed dragon, before disappearing without a sound, seemingly using some kind of teleportation method.
Seeing this, One-Eyed Dragon and his adjutant also tried to break through, but Liu Yu and his men stopped them, restrained them, tied their hands and feet, and took their watches.
"Boss Zhang Shi, I didn't expect to see you here."
Liu Yu stepped out from the crowd and shouted loudly towards Zhang Shi in the treehouse.
Zhang Shi had already spotted Liu Yu. After a moment's thought, he instructed Wu Qing to continue guarding the edge of the shield. He then stepped forward, still holding his old Duan sword, and did not let his guard down.
What's going on?
Zhang Shi, neither sad nor happy, asked Liu Yu.
Liu Yu spread his hands, shook his head, and pointed at the one-eyed dragon as he explained to Zhang Shi.
"It's just a coincidence. Our Light Alliance didn't want to get involved in this mess, but we just happened to run into it during tonight's operation."
Afterwards, Liu Yu recounted the whole story to Zhang Shi in detail, and Zhang Shi shook his head repeatedly as he listened.
"What a coincidence."
Zhang Shi didn't care whether Liu Yu's account was true or false. What he cared about was that Wu Qing's shelter was right in the Eagle Regiment's search area. Her coordinates had most likely been exposed, and if it wasn't dealt with soon, she might end up like Ge Dalong.
"Boss Zhang Shi, these two are from the Eagle Regiment. What do you think we should do?"
Zhang Shi glanced at the restless members of the Light Alliance, and to avoid further trouble and conflict with them over the division of spoils, he replied calmly.
"You arrested him, so do with him as you see fit."
...
The members of the Light Alliance first looted the surrounding area, and then Liu Yu gave the order, and the group retreated in a grand manner. One-Eyed Dragon and his adjutant were also captured by Liu Yu.
Zhang Shi returned to the treehouse, and Wu Qing then removed the light screen and thanked him.
Thank you.
Zhang Shi waved his hand and said solemnly.
"You need to move as soon as possible. Many people saw me here tonight, and your coordinates may have been leaked. Those people have the means to operate in the high temperatures, so you're going to have a lot of trouble from now on."
Wu Qing also realized the seriousness of the situation. The Eagle Regiment was armed with firearms, and when they attacked, they would often use Molotov cocktails to clear the way, causing great damage to the shelter.
Zhang Shi took out a shelter relocation card from his pocket and handed it to Wu Qing. "Why don't you come to my place? If you come over, our group of four will be complete, and we can look out for each other."
After considering it for a moment, Wu Qing nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Shi returned to the fortress first and then traded the Traveler's Notes to Wu Qing.
Subsequently, Wu Qing used the Shelter Relocation Card to move the entire shelter, including the plants, to Zhang Shi's shelter.
With a thought, a huge botanical garden appeared in the courtyard, and a giant, glowing sunflower illuminated the area around the shelter, drawing exclamations of wonder from the guards.
Ge Dalong and Zhao Feng were startled by the sudden appearance of the giant plant and put down their work to come and check. When they saw that it was Wu Qing, they guessed what was going on.
Zhao Feng grinned and greeted Wu Qing with a cheerful smile.
"Now that the family is all here, I suggest we have a party tonight to celebrate."
Ge Dalong knew about the situation at the shelter. With more and more soldiers joining, food became a heavy burden on Zhang Shi's mind. He patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder, just about to change the subject, when Zhang Shi appeared and spoke with a smile.
"No problem, let's have a barbecue party tonight to celebrate the official return of our group of four."
Wu Qing moved the shelter along with him, and his farmland was also transferred. The plants there became even more lush and verdant upon contact with the rich spiritual energy of Zhang Shi's shelter. The temperature-regulating effect also affected the entire shelter; Zhang Shi could clearly feel that the temperature was no longer so hot.
Zhang Shi showed Wu Qing around the shelter, familiarizing her with the environment. Wu Qing knew about the two robots, but had never seen the guards before. She was amazed to see the guards training in the sweltering heat. Passing the research center, Zhang Shi happened to see Gong Yi creating a heavy crossbow made of high-quality steel. His eyes lit up, and he immediately stopped to examine it.
