#2825 - Robbery
“Instead of wasting time in a stalemate here, how about we cooperate?” Chloe suggested, “You lead us into the mining area, I’ll allow you to collect resources there, and I’ll provide you with protection, how about that?”
Zaka and his two companions exchanged glances.
What a joke!
Zaka stared coldly at Chloe and her group, “What if we disagree?”
“Hahahaha, disagree? You think you have a choice!” Wu Xiao stepped forward again, looking at the group with a sneer, “Then you can all stay here!”
As he spoke, the group surrounded Wu Xiao's team, trapping them in the middle.
Zaka and his companions exchanged glances.
What should they do?
They hadn't anticipated that the mercenaries from the West Beacon would rely on their numerical advantage to attack directly.
“Humph! All of you, attack! See what kind of stuff they’re carrying on those war machines!”
Zaka's expression changed slightly, and he was about to make a move when Zate reached out and held him down.
Zate gently shook his head.
Seeing that Zaka and the others didn't resist, Wu Xiao's lips curled into a sneer, and he snapped his fingers.
More than twenty players immediately pounced on the transport robots like wolves.
“Be careful when disassembling them.”
Wu Xiao casually wiped the short blade in his hand, “Don’t damage my loot.”
The players were curious.
What exactly was inside the resource boxes loaded on the robots?
A player in the front row climbed onto the back of a loading robot and felt a slight vibration coming from the robot beneath him as soon as he touched the surface of the box.
“Beep—beep—beep—”
The player heard a faint electronic beeping sound.
What!?
Not good!
Hearing the sound, Chloe suddenly realized something and opened her mouth to warn them.
“Boom! Boom boom boom!!!”
In the next instant, the self-destruct devices installed in the twenty transport machines were triggered simultaneously!
A violent explosion!
Twenty plumes of smoke erupted, and metal debris shot out like rain. The players nearby were instantly blown away by the massive force of the explosion.
When the smoke cleared, there were more than twenty ring-shaped shallow pits on the ground.
“Cough, damn it!”
Wu Xiao was also blown away and landed on the ground, spitting out sand from his mouth.
The energy shield that automatically released on his body had been shattered into dust in the explosion. He looked around and saw that the surviving players were struggling to get up from the ground, many with scattered pieces of metal embedded in their bodies.
Looking again, Zaka and the others had taken advantage of the explosion to enter the desert area.
“Idiots! What are you going to use to chase them!”
Chloe walked up and kicked Wu Xiao, who was lying on the ground, venting her anger.
More than twenty of them couldn't even catch three people, and they were left in such a mess.
The injured players struggled to get up from the ground, getting up to rescue their teammates.
Fortunately, everyone was wearing tactical energy protection equipment.
The equipment absorbed a lot of impact damage. Many players were seriously injured by the iron fragments that pierced their bodies, but at least their lives were saved.
Looking back towards the desert, Zaka and his team had already entered the depths of the desert, fleeing quickly into the distance.
“Sorry, boss…”
Wu Xiao struggled to get up, letting the blood flow down his cheeks, his eyes looking venomously at Zaka and his group in the desert.
He didn't expect Zaka and his group to be so ruthless, directly detonating the transport robots they had bought at a high price, and even abandoning the resources on the robots.
“Boss, give me another chance, I will definitely kill them.”
Chloe's eyes were equally cold, and she said coldly: “Put away that banditry in you. This is not the North Beacon. We are now mercenaries of the West Beacon. It’s not easy to explain to the West Beacon if we act directly.”
“Sorry.”
“I don’t want to hear this kind of nonsense.”
Chloe watched as Zaka and his group gradually went deeper into the desert.
As Zaka's team went deeper, a look of suspicion appeared on Chloe's face.
It was strange.
There were clearly a large number of alien insect creatures hiding in the desert.
Why didn't these alien insect creatures appear when Zaka and the others entered the desert?
“Boss?”
“What is it?”
“We checked the things that group left in the resource boxes…” Wu Xiao scratched his head, his expression a little unnatural, and said: “They were all multi-functional engineering shovels.”
“Huh?”
Chloe wondered if she had heard wrong, turned to look at Wu Xiao, and asked him to confirm: “What did you say? Engineering shovels?”
Wu Xiao had a bitter face and had cursed Zaka's ancestors up and down more than a dozen times in his heart.
Good heavens, they had worked so hard to make such a big commotion, and in the end, they only got a few engineering shovels?
What was wrong with these people? What were they doing sending so many engineering shovels over with so much effort?
Chloe looked back at the engineering shovels that her subordinates were sorting out, and a hint of suspicion also appeared in her eyes.
Strange…
Engineering shovels?
“Boss, we…” he asked cautiously, “That group is about to go far away, should we follow them?”
“Idiot, what are you chasing now!”
Chloe cursed, “Let your people recover their strength first!”
“Understood.”
On the other side, the central forest of the desert.
Fang Heng calculated the time and controlled a batch of zombie clones in advance to prepare to receive the supplies, but he only saw Zaka and the others returning with dusty faces.
“What’s wrong? Where are the things?”
“We ran into a group of players when we came back to the desert, and they robbed us of the things.”
Knowing that he had messed up this time, Zaka told in detail about his encounter with Chloe and the others with a bitter face.
“Boss Fang, sorry, we failed to complete the mission, we should have been more careful.”
“No, it has nothing to do with you. The transport machines are large, so it’s normal to be targeted, but I didn’t expect the players to come so quickly.”
Fang Heng waved his hand, feeling a little angry in his heart.
If you walk by the river often, you’re bound to get your feet wet.
He used to rob other people’s things, but now it was his turn to be robbed.
Su Guantong said: “Although we detonated the war machine’s self-destruct mode, the boxes containing the engineering shovels are specially made. This level of explosion will not affect the use of the engineering shovels. I don’t think these players will have any use for the engineering shovels. It’s still not too late to chase after them now.”
“Well, thank you for your hard work, stay here and rest for a while, I’ll find a way to get the things back.”
Zaka watched Fang Heng say the most ruthless words with the most relaxed expression, and couldn't help swallowing carefully.
Okay.
These idiots robbed the things of Master Fang Heng.
They’re done for now, right?
As soon as he thought that Boss Fang was going to help them get revenge, Zaka immediately felt energized and stood up directly, “Boss Fang, I’m fine, I’ll go with you.”
Fang Heng glanced at Zaka.
“Well, that’s good too.”
