#794 - Chapter 794: Fire Knife Gang?
"Wait! I need your help with something! I'll tell you about the Fireblade Gang!"
The boy panicked as the vehicle swerved past him.
He shouted, desperately trying to get their attention.
Unfortunately,
he didn't know the style of the Green Source combat team.
They wouldn't easily trust strangers they met on the road.
The detour was already due to their severely weakened state.
Yao Lei's combat strength had plummeted without her firearms, and Captain Li was hampered by his injuries.
Yesterday's battle against the Tiancheng Base had exhausted all her bullets, and although they had seized some weapons after defeating their opponents, they had no ammunition.
If Yao Lei had some bullets and Li Bowen wasn't injured, they might have taken on the Fireblade Gang the boy mentioned.
After the apocalypse, without order, survivors often gathered to form bases, shelters, or gangs.
This Fireblade Gang was likely something similar.
Hearing the boy ask for help and offer information about the Fireblade Gang, Yao Lei and Li Bowen remained unmoved, acting as if they were going to drive down another road.
That was their intention.
They couldn't simply trust a stranger they met on the road.
Changing their route was already the biggest concession.
"Don't... don't go! I'm begging you! My name is An Shun, a survivor trying to survive here, and I desperately need your help!"
"The Fireblade Gang has captured my mother! If you can help me get her back, I'll do anything for you!"
"I also know many secrets about the Fireblade Gang. They've destroyed many of Stone Table City's main roads. If you want to leave from the south, you'll inevitably encounter their ambushes! I know a safe way to leave, please help me!"
The boy, An Shun, rattled off a lot of information and explained his request.
Hearing the name Fireblade Gang again, Li Bowen frowned.
Could this Fireblade Gang really be so powerful that they controlled most of the city!?
He found it hard to believe.
Even a powerful base like Green Source only completely controlled Guangyuan City.
Could this Fireblade Gang be that strong!?
Unlikely.
The boy, who called himself An Shun, didn't see his expression, but Yao Lei showed a similar one.
"It's true!"
"Stone Table City isn't big. There are only five or six main roads leading south. If you abandon your car and don't take those roads, it's fine, but if you continue driving, you'll inevitably pass through areas controlled by the Fireblade Gang!"
"And they have guns! You can't beat them!"
An Shun explained quickly, seemingly worried that Yao Lei and Li Bowen wouldn't believe him.
Yao Lei couldn't help but think carefully.
Many roads they had driven on were blocked, and now that she thought about it, many of the obstacles showed clear signs of being man-made.
Could there really be a group of villains specifically ambushing passing survivors!?
They both felt a vague sense of unease.
They just happened to pass by and encounter such a "kind-hearted person" warning them of danger ahead, constantly explaining reasons to dissuade them from contacting this so-called Fireblade Gang.
It seemed like there was a secret hidden here.
Thinking of this, Li Bowen decided not to waste any more time here.
"Let's go, ignore this person!"
He signaled to Yao Lei and decided to leave quickly.
The latter understood, she also felt a vague sense of unease, stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped away.
!!!
The boy named An Shun panicked.
How could these two run away after hearing so many frightening words from him? Were they not interested in knowing what the Fireblade Gang was and how to leave safely!?
This wasn't how it was supposed to go!
His previously pitiful expression changed instantly to a fierce one!!
He wasn't a good person after all!
Seeing the car getting further and further away, about to leave his sight and turn onto another road.
He pulled out a walkie-talkie from his tattered clothes and shouted to his hidden accomplices:
"Two fish got away from me! Find a way to intercept them!"
After speaking, he no longer stayed by the roadside, stood up, patted off the dust, walked to the building next to him, and pushed out a motorcycle!
After starting it, he sputtered off to an unknown location...
Somewhere south of Stone Table City.
A certain mountain.
Inside a base built into a cave.
A group of about three or four men were eating large chunks of unknown meat, and in front of them were many packaged foods, many of which had been opened and emitted an enticing aroma after being heated.
"Boss! This meat is really delicious! I don't know where these two guys got these good things. If we can find out their background, we can rob them of all their supplies and make a fortune!"
A short, skinny man wearing a greasy down jacket said to his leader with a lewd expression.
"Who doesn't want to? But these two won't open their mouths. We've used a lot of torture on them, but they won't say a word. It's too hard to pry open their mouths."
Opposite the lewd man was a burly man wearing a thick hat and sporting a Fu Manchu mustache.
They were eating and chatting while holding food they had obtained from somewhere.
If you looked closer, the food was actually extremely rare semi-processed meals!!
It was simply shocking!
The apocalypse had been going on for so long, and this kind of semi-processed food was difficult to preserve for a long time.
There was only one possibility!
That was that these foods had only been processed recently!
However, inside this cave base built into the mountain, there were no industrial machines and not many well-organized buildings.
It looked like just an ordinary gathering place for survivors.
It was impossible to have the ability to produce this kind of semi-finished meal themselves.
So these things must have been obtained from other places!
They were the Fireblade Gang.
They were considered a reasonably strong force in Stone Table City.
Of course, this "good" could only be compared in small cities. It was still not comparable to large and giant forces in large cities or some special circumstances.
The three or four people chatting in the cave were the leader and cadres of the Fireblade Gang. The things they were eating were obtained from the survivors they "luckily" captured a few days ago!
If they could continue to eat these good things all the time in the future, how good would life be?
While eating, the Fireblade Gang leader couldn't help but turn his gaze to the two men tied up in the corner of the cave.
These foods were obtained from them!
These two were discovered a few days ago by their informants stationed outside, and then many gang members were sent to surround and attack them, costing them many subordinates to capture them alive.
The results were extremely rich!
They were each wearing a set of high-quality bulletproof vests and assault equipment, as well as two pistols.
More importantly, there were some unbelievable foods in their backpacks!
The background of these two people was definitely unusual.
If they could dig out their secrets, maybe the Fireblade Gang could take off!
The Fireblade Gang leader looked at one of the men who had been tortured, regretting that he had refused to reveal the truth.
