Chapter 38 Shoot Me!
Chapter 38 Shoot me!
Chu Guang turned his head.
He saw a sturdy man standing at the door, his left arm firmly locked around Ye Shi’s neck and bound hands, his right hand holding a pistol, the muzzle of the gun against his temple.
However, just as he said “let her go”, two guns were quickly pointed at him.
Seeing this, the sturdy man subconsciously hid behind Ye Shi and shouted hurriedly.
”Don’t move! Your accomplice is in my hands! I know you are strong, but can you be faster than a bullet?”
Chu Guang, holding a gun, was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up unnaturally.
I’m strong?
Hey, how embarrassing.
After more than five months in the wasteland, this is the first time someone has praised him for being strong.
”Chen Yang? You’re not dead?!” Xia Yan widened his eyes and looked at the man at the door.
The sturdy man’s expression was obviously a little embarrassed, but he still managed to squeeze out a smile from his face.
”Haha, I won’t give up here so easily. Wait, I’ll rescue you first!”
Xia Yan’s eyes rekindled the hope of life.
If possible, she certainly didn’t want to fall into the hands of these “primitives”. With her only five remaining toes, she could imagine how she would be treated as a captive.
Occasionally, there would be captured mercenaries who were redeemed from slave traders by teammates or insurance company people if they happened to be sold to Boulder City.
But even if they were still alive, they were no different from being dead.
Both mentally and physically.
Finally, he got a little space out from under the strong man’s arms. Ye Shi, who was almost suffocated to death, didn’t even take a breath.
He was seen struggling desperately while yelling.
”Shoot! Shoot at me!! What are you waiting for!”
”Fuck… This idiot has body odor, it’s stinking me to death!”
If the strong man knew what this guy was yelling, maybe he would really not be able to help but shoot him.
But it’s a pity.
The man didn’t understand, he just thought the hostage was noisy.
Raising the handle of the gun and hitting the hostage’s head hard, Chen Yang shouted.
”Be honest!” How
could Ye Shi be honest?
He couldn’t feel the excessive pain at all, but because of the hit, he was so angry that he yelled even harder.
”Shoot at me! Sir Administrator, please don’t worry about me, I can’t die!”
Nonsense.
Of course I know you can’t die.
Who do you think is buying your life!
Chu Guang rolled his eyes in his heart, but his face didn’t show the slightest bit. He looked at the sturdy man named Chen Yang at the door calmly and said lightly.
”I don’t like being threatened. You’d better put down the gun, raise your hands above your head and lean against the wall, and I can spare your life.”
Chen Yang said excitedly.
”I’m not kidding you! I can really shoot!”
”Me too,” Chu Guang looked at him calmly, “Do you want to try? Let’s count to three and do it together.”
Xia Yan, who was leaning against the bar, couldn’t bear it any longer. She didn’t want her teammates who had finally escaped death to die here because of her.
”That’s enough, Chen Yang, you can go alone… Don’t worry about me.”
Chu Guang ignored her and whispered the first number.
”3.”
Looking at Chu Guang who had already started counting down, a drop of cold sweat slid across Chen Yang’s forehead.
This lunatic!
Don’t you care about the life and death of your companions at all!
And the hostage in his hand, with a face full of heroic death, doesn’t look like a hostage at all.
”2.”
Crazy.
All crazy!
”Wait, stop, I don’t mean to threaten you! I’ll give you the people, I just want one thing!”
Chen Yang admitted that he was scared.
He quickly glanced at Xia Yan who was sitting on the ground, and continued quickly, “Give me the key on her body, I’ll let her go immediately after you get the key!”
Chu Guang raised his eyebrows, a little curious.
”Key?”
”A magnetic card! She knows what I’m talking about!”
Chu Guang looked at Xia Yan lying on the ground, but the woman didn’t look at him, just looked at her former teammate blankly.
”So you’re after the key…”
”Whatever you say, instead of dying here for nothing, let me complete part of the commission.”
Teammate?
This is a wasteland.
Originally, he planned to wait for the crawlers to leave before touching the bodies of his teammates, otherwise he wouldn’t have pretended to be dead and escaped, and he wouldn’t have watched coldly and waited until now to help her.
Chen Yang ignored his former teammate who was full of disappointment, and slowly backed away with his gun against the hostage’s temple, staring at the expression on Chu Guang’s face.
”What do you think? A woman, and your companion, I only want a card on her! Anyway, it’s useless for you to hold it.”
Chu Guang nodded.
”Makes sense.”
So I made a profit?
But…
there’s no need.
Chu Guang looked at Xia Yan.
”Give it to him.”
Seeing that the manager didn’t shoot for a long time, but talked about the sentence with the kidnapper, Ye Shi struggled more fiercely, fearing that the NPC would compromise with the kidnapper for him.
”Don’t worry about me! Fang Chang, are you stupid? Shoot!”
I’m a player.
What’s there to be afraid of?
If I die here, it will be a heroic sacrifice, and my favorability will increase!
”Fuck… don’t move, let me take a look.”
Fang Chang said nervously.
How dare he move?
It’s not that he can’t do it. He has done things like helping teammates when he played PUBG, but this game is not PUBG after all. How dare he move if the manager doesn’t do it? What if he
misses the key plot!
Xia Yan silently took out the bloody magnetic card from her pocket. It was given to her by the captain before he died.
Logically speaking, Chen Yang couldn’t know that this card was on him.
Unless he had touched the captain’s body.
He understood everything in an instant.
Xia Yan looked at her former teammates expressionlessly. She felt more numb than sad or scared.
Perhaps her future fate would be miserable.
Like a dirty rag thrown in the corner waiting to mold, or sold to other slave traders by these barbarians until she could no longer work.
But she suddenly felt that none of this mattered.
”Take it.”
She threw the card out with two fingers.
Looking at the card that fell at his feet, Chen Yang’s eyes flashed with a moment of ecstasy and greed that could not be hidden. He stretched out his foot to step on it and wanted to kick it out of the door.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened to him.
Almost at the same time he stretched out his right foot, the hostage who was struggling fiercely in his arms suddenly softened, slipped from his elbow, and knelt directly on the ground with one knee.
Before Chen Yang could react to what was going on, two gunshots came from the side, one of which directly shot through his forehead.
A stream of blood mist exploded in front of his forehead.
Chen Yang, with his eyes wide open, fell straight backwards. He never figured out what happened just now.
”Fuck! Hit!”
A shot to the head!
Fang Chang moved the barrel of the gun away and shouted excitedly.
”That was my shot. Your bullet flew into the street lamp outside… Practice more.” Chu Guang reloaded the rifle with a speechless face.
He no longer had any hope for the shooting skills of these players.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he used the authority of “GM” to force players to log off the game.
Unexpectedly, this function was surprisingly useful.
Of course, if the players asked, he would not admit it. At most, he would explain the network fluctuations as a planner.
”You, kill him…”
Xia Yan looked at Chu Guang with a wooden face, obviously not expecting him to suddenly shoot.
Chu Guang said impatiently.
”I said, I hate people threatening me, not to mention I gave him a chance.”
What’s more, the guy pointed a gun at him.
As they were talking, Ye Shi, who was kneeling on the floor, suddenly twitched and woke up in a daze.
”Why did I get offline just now?”
His sight moved blankly and fell on the dead man behind him. Ye Shi suddenly jumped up from the ground reflexively.
”Fuck, how did this guy die?”
Another plot jump? !
Fang Chang walked over and patted him on the shoulder.
”It may be a network fluctuation. It’s good that you can log back in… One shot in the head, hehe, brother is awesome, right?”
”Awesome, awesome, awesome!”
Okay.
It seems that I can even save this step of explanation.
After taking his eyes off the two players, Chu Guang felt that he had recovered almost, so he got up from the chair in the restaurant.
Walking to the side of Chen Yang’s body, Chu Guang reached out and picked up the blood-stained card and the dropped pistol from his feet.
The former is not useful for the time being, but the latter is a good thing.
Chu Guang played with the pistol for a while. It seems that this thing should be semi-automatic. It is not known how powerful it is, but it should be quite powerful.
”I’m going to leave. Good luck to you.”
Seeing Chu Guang talking to her, Xia Yan looked up blankly.
”Aren’t you taking me with you?”
Chu Guang asked back.
”Did I say I would take you with me?”
Xia Yan was stunned.
This was completely different from what she expected, and it was completely beyond her expectations.
But now there was no time for her to think.
Seeing that the man named Chu Guang was really not joking, he walked out the door with his two loyal men.
When she thought that she would be left here alone, she panicked.
”You… are really not predators?”
Chu Guang stopped and looked at her and teased.
”Are you disappointed?”
”I,” Xia Yan opened her mouth, embarrassed for a long time, and continued with a dry cough, “I mean, are you survivors nearby? Can you take me to your settlement?”
Anyway, she had nowhere to go.
Wanting to walk back to Boulder City on one leg is even more outrageous than defeating the crawlers alone, not to mention that she couldn’t go back.
Since the group of people in front of him were not looters or slave traders, it would not be bad to go with them.
However, Chu Guang did not want to bring this burden with him.
The current medical conditions in the shelter certainly could not give her a mechanical prosthesis. At most, he could ask the carpenter to make her a crutch. She could
not do heavy work without a leg, and there was an extra mouth to eat. It would be better to recruit more players with this food.
But at this moment, he heard two players talking in a low voice.
”Is this woman a new NPC?”
”It’s possible, but it’s hard to say… It seems that the administrator does not intend to take her with him.”
”But I think she can still be rescued.”
”Indeed, it seems that she should be a mercenary. Even if she has a broken leg, it should be no problem for her to make guns and weapons, right?”
Emmm…
It seems to make sense.
Chu Guang thought for a while and looked at Xia Yan.
”Let me be frank. You are a burden now. Even if you are placed in a nearby survivor settlement, your fate will not be much better than death.”
Xia Yan bit her lip and lowered her head.
This is the truth.
Needless to say, she could imagine what would happen to her.
Looking at this silent woman, Chu Guang continued.
”Of course, if you have a skill, I can take you with me…”
”As long as you are willing to work for me.”
