Chapter 39: Black Tiger
At the same time, in the Black Tiger survivor base.
A middle-aged man with a long scar on his face returned to the base panting.
As soon as he returned to the base, he ran straight to Hei Hu's residence.
Arriving outside of Black Tiger's room, he instantly collapsed to the ground, shouting, "Black Tiger Boss! Black Tiger Boss! Something terrible has happened! They've been killed, all of them!"
"What's the hurry? Did you bring Zhang Jingyu back? Where's the giant bear?" A greasy and wretched middle-aged man with a big belly, dark skin, and a mustache came out. Seeing Scar Rat lying limp on the ground, Hei Hu was a little surprised.
What on earth happened to make the mature and steady Scar Rat become like this?
"Big Lao! The giant bear is dead!"
"The yellow dog is dead too! All of them are dead! If I hadn't burrowed quickly into the ground, I would have died there too!"
Recalling what happened at that time, Scar Rat showed a look of fear on his face.
"What? The giant bear was killed?!" Hearing this, Hei Hu's face instantly showed an expression of disbelief, and then his eyes were filled with anger. He said in a murderous voice:
"Is Zhang Jinglin that strong? You more than a dozen people secretly followed them. Didn't you know how to attack them after finding them? And he killed them all? Are you useless? Did something unexpected happen?"
“No… it wasn’t Zhang Jinglin. When we got there, Zhang Jinglin was already dead. It was another young man who was very strong. He took Zhang Jinglin’s knife and killed more than a dozen people in an instant. He didn’t even use his supernatural powers from beginning to end. He just used close combat to kill everyone.
Even the giant bear didn't react in time and was killed instantly! If I had run slower, I would have been beheaded!" Scar Rat said with lingering fear.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! When it comes to close combat, my third brother Giant Bear is invincible! Without using super powers, even I may not be his opponent! How is it possible for someone to kill it without using super powers?" Hei Hu obviously didn't believe it.
The giant bear used to be a professional mercenary in peacetime and was very powerful.
At the end of the world, he awakened the ability to transform into a giant bear and possessed the power of a giant bear.
It can be said that without using super powers, the giant bear's strength is among the top among all first-level super powers!
How is it possible to be killed instantly?
There was suspicion in Hei Hu's eyes.
Is it possible that Scar Rat is deliberately exaggerating the enemy's strength because he is afraid that he will be blamed for the failure of the mission?
"It's true, brother! I didn't lie to you, brother! Zhang Jingyu was also taken away by that guy. He also killed hundreds of zombies, all with a knife. His strength was terrifying! Until the end, we didn't know what his special abilities were!" Scar Rat said excitedly.
When Heihu heard that Zhang Jingyu was taken away by that guy, he immediately became angry.
"Damn it! A dozen of you can't even beat one person! You can't even bring a woman back with you! What's the use of you!
When Falcon comes back, I will ask him to check the situation first. Then I will go and meet this so-called psychic in person to see how strong he is!
If I find out that you are exaggerating, you will be in trouble!" Hei Hu said viciously.
"I'm not talking nonsense! Big brother, I'm telling the truth! If you don't believe me, just let Falcon see for yourself! That guy is really strong! If you don't believe me, forget it!" Scar Rat said, and left here angrily.
He had just escaped death, and was afraid of being caught up by the enemy, so he didn't dare to take the flat road. He used his supernatural power to dig holes to get back, and he dug holes for more than 20 kilometers!
This took a huge toll on him and now he was extremely exhausted.
Who would have thought that he had just returned and now he was scolded by Hei Hu again, so naturally he was in a very bad mood.
Scar Rat left Black Tiger's residence while cursing as he walked: "I lost more than a dozen brothers for a woman! Not even a word of concern, and you still cursed me! Damn it!
If I could beat him, I would have killed him long ago! Damn it, how come I only awakened the ability to dig holes? If I had awakened a combat ability, would I be able to do this? "
After cursing in his heart, Daobashu calmed down and began to think about his future retreat.
"Now that Black Tiger has lost two of his capable assistants, Giant Bear and Yellow Dog, his strength has been greatly reduced. I estimate that even the entire survivor base combined is no match for that young man. Black Tiger will probably fight to the death with that young man in order to get Zhang Jingyu. Am I just waiting to die if I stay here?"
"Damn it, it's better to leave early than to wait for death! Hei Hu doesn't treat his brothers as human beings. There is no future for us to follow him!"
Daobashu made up his mind.
Prepare to return to your residence, then start packing up and leave secretly.
Although his ability is not a combat ability, it is still very useful for escaping. He is short and the hole he digs is small, so others can't get in. As long as he wants to run, basically few people can catch up with him.
Walking inside the Black Tiger survivor base.
The civilians in the base saw Scar Rat and came over to say hello.
"Hello, Master Rat!"
"Master Rat, you have another fruitful harvest today, right?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Scar Rat smiled at everyone.
A dusty, skinny little girl ran over to Scar Rat, raised her head, opened her big, innocent eyes and asked:
"Master Rat, where did you go on adventures today? Did you encounter any scary zombies?"
Looking at the cute little girl, Scar Rat suddenly felt soft in his heart.
Although he is a psychic, he is quite useless due to his awakened ability to drill holes.
He is not popular among the superpowers, and everyone looks down on him. He is always the first to go out and explore dangerous areas.
But the common people looked upon him with great respect.
The people with special powers called him Scar Rat, but the common people respectfully called him Lord Rat.
Therefore, Scar Rat treats these civilians better than other psychics.
The other psychics all look superior. If civilians dare to provoke them, they will just kick them away. Why would they talk to them?
Scar Rat squatted down and said to the little girl:
"We went to a very far place. I, Master Rat, killed dozens of zombies directly! So awesome! Here, Master Rat will give you a candy." After saying that, he took out a candy from his pocket and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl's eyes suddenly lit up.
Endless light seemed to burst out from his eyes in an instant.
In the last days, even the calories in a piece of candy are extremely precious.
The little girl took the candy and held it tightly in her hand like a treasure. She kept thanking Scar Rat: "Thank you, Master Rat, thank you, Master Rat!"
When the other children saw the little girl get a candy, they immediately surrounded her.
"Master Rat! You're so handsome!"
"Master Rat, you are the most handsome man in this base!"
"Mr. Rat! Any more candy?"
……
"Hahaha! I just like kids like you who love to tell the truth. Yes, yes, yes! Everyone gets one!" Hearing the children praising him for being handsome, Scar Mouse smiled like an auntie and gave everyone a candy.
The children were immediately delighted.
"Candy! White Rabbit milk candy! Mom, I got candy again! Woo woo woo!"
The child cried tears of joy.
"Lord Rat is so great! Long live Lord Rat!"
……
The children skipped away.
In the distance, their parents also cast grateful glances at Scar Rat.
A piece of candy may not be a big deal for a person with special powers, but for ordinary people, it is very difficult for them to survive every day. How can they afford a luxury like candy?
Seeing this group of survivors looking at him as if they were saviors, Scar Rat gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
