#800 - Chapter 800: Sneak in to save people
“Fuck!!”
“Bang!!”
A burst of angry curses and the sound of shattering objects erupted within the Fire Knife Gang's headquarters.
It was their leader, Lin Guomin, smashing an ashtray.
Bad news had been pouring in from outside since noon, completely ruining his good mood, which had stemmed from acquiring a new toy.
Two survivors, from who knows where, were actually hunting them!
This was supposed to be their job!
Now they were being targeted in such a way by others!?
Absolutely outrageous!!
“You must kill these two for me!! And that woman, you must capture her and bring her to headquarters! I want all the brothers to have a taste of her!!”
Like an enraged lion, Lin Guomin roared, his face flushed with anger.
Since the apocalypse, they had established the Fire Knife Gang and enjoyed smooth sailing. Although they had starved for a while, that was no longer the case after they started eating 'big meat'.
In addition, by managing Shintai City well, frequently capturing passing survivors to enjoy and trading with cannibalistic forces in the surrounding area for supplies, they lived quite comfortably.
Therefore, the Fire Knife Gang absolutely could not compromise in the face of the current situation!
Nor could they hide back in headquarters and let those two “flaunt their power”!
How could they?
It was practically like someone was shitting on their heads!
They had nearly two hundred people, yet they couldn't deal with a mere two targets. If word got out, they would be laughed to death by the surrounding forces.
“Leader! We've already sent more men to surround and intercept those two!! This time, we'll definitely catch them! They'll regret it later!”
A cadre captain repeatedly patted his chest to assure him.
At this time, over a hundred people had been sent out, leaving only twenty or thirty personnel at headquarters.
And with darkness expected in just two hours, the time they had to deal with those two was truly running out.
If those two seized the opportunity to slip away and then came back to harass them from time to time, would the Fire Knife Gang even be able to survive?
They had to take care of those two before dark!
And so,
More and more Fire Knife Gang members were sent out to assist in surrounding and intercepting the two.
Time passed, reaching a little after four o'clock.
Even more Fire Knife Gang members were dispatched, but their vehicles and fuel were limited. Only about seven or eight vehicles could run, while the others had to use motorcycles or bicycles to assist in the encirclement.
The encirclement remained at a certain level.
On a certain national highway,
Yao Lei continued to drive her vehicle, charging left and right.
Thanks to the vehicle's sturdy modifications, she could basically ignore the occasional bullets fired from behind.
She would occasionally return a few shots at the pursuers.
At this point, things were basically proceeding according to their planned schedule.
Only she remained in the vehicle!
As for Li Bowen in the passenger seat?
He had already slipped away when they shook off the pursuers at a certain point.
They had found usable motorcycles at the ambush point where they previously annihilated the Fire Knife Gang members. While Yao Lei drew the enemy's attention, Team Leader Li had resolutely left!
He was heading alone towards the Fire Knife Gang's headquarters!
That's right!
Team Leader Li was going to break into the enemy's lair single-handedly to rescue people!
Fire Knife Gang headquarters.
From the outside, it was surrounded by a circle of fences and some rocky hills.
These things had been their effective guarantees against zombie invasions.
But today, an uninvited guest had arrived.
At a certain section of the rocky hills, a figure appeared at some unknown time, precisely Team Leader Li, who had ridden his motorcycle nearby and felt his way to this place!
He did not choose to charge directly in. That was unrealistic. The enemy had firearms and other weapons. Charging in like that would be no different from courting death.
He was here to rescue people. He only needed to rescue his teammates, and other matters could be considered later.
After two days of rapid recovery, he could already walk and move normally.
Apart from not being able to exert his full strength, facing a dozen or so strong men was still not a problem.
Of course, that was assuming the enemy did not have firearms.
After injecting two doses of D-serum, coupled with his own enhanced physique as an evolver, although he was not at his peak, his strength was still terrifying compared to ordinary people.
He quietly felt his way along the rocky hills to the Fire Knife Gang's wall, easily dropping into their headquarters.
Most of their personnel were currently being drawn away by Yao Lei outside, flying a kite, and even their own walls could not be fully monitored.
Seizing the opportunity, he successfully entered.
Team Leader Li narrowed his eyes, using various obstacles for cover, recalling the Fire Knife Gang's internal layout, which he had learned from interrogating captured prisoners, and continued to feel his way towards the place where the captives were being held.
“Crack!”
A Fire Knife Gang member responsible for guarding the headquarters, who was engrossed in appreciating a pornographic magazine, had his neck snapped on the spot!
Under Team Leader Li's monstrous strength, his fragile neck was easily broken as if it were made of clay!
Casually dragging the corpse to hide it in a concealed place, Team Leader Li quickly changed into the other man's clothes.
By simply putting on the other man's jacket and adding a hat and hood, which many Fire Knife Gang members wore, he was instantly transformed into an extremely ordinary member here.
He continued to feel his way deeper.
According to the information from the previous interrogation, the prison cell was located further inside.
Li Bowen lowered his hat and continued to walk with his head down.
After two minutes, he finally arrived at the general destination.
He slightly raised his head and glanced ahead, and sure enough, he saw three people standing there chatting idly.
“I heard that two hateful rats appeared outside, causing many of our men to die!”
“Yeah! Sanzi is dead too! Are there really such powerful people these days? I can hardly believe it.”
“It should be true. Luckily, we don't have to help with the pursuit. We can just stay here and guard the captives. Once those two rats are caught, we'll torture them severely!”
Several people who were somewhat related to the leader or cadres, belonging to the privileged class, did not need to risk pursuing the enemy. Instead, they were assigned the “good job” of staying at headquarters to handle these simple tasks.
“Huh?”
“Who's that?”
“What are you doing here?”
One of them noticed a figure walking towards them and asked in confusion.
The other two also turned their attention in that direction, and sure enough, they saw a figure walking towards them empty-handed.
They were not too nervous, because this was the Fire Knife Gang's headquarters, and it was a relatively core area. In their subconscious, it was impossible for enemies to appear here.
“Um... the leader told me to come and ask about the situation of those few captives.”
The figure spoke in a faint tone, and his body did not stop moving forward.
“Hey, hey, hey! Wait a minute! Why would the leader tell you to come and ask about things!? Isn't the matter of guarding the captives generally the responsibility of Captain Fang?”
The confusion on one of their faces deepened. Just as he was about to continue questioning and tell the figure not to continue approaching, an abnormality occurred!
Whoosh—
The figure accelerated and approached extremely quickly. Before the three could pull out their machetes and pistols, fists and feet carrying a terrifying wind sound arrived!
