Chapter 134: Capture
It’s no wonder He Jie was anxious.
Today, as soon as he showed his face, everyone knew he had defected. As long as one person survived and went back, his family might be in danger.
Now his mind was full of getting his family out as quickly as possible.
“Ah, right.”
Su Huan lowered his head and looked kindly at Goat. “Do you want to join us? If not, that’s fine too. We can cooperate next time if there’s a chance.”
Goat, who had been electrocuted a few times, had an extremely clear head.
He reacted almost instantly.
‘Probably won’t cooperate again in the next life.’
He said urgently, “I’m useful, I’ll cooperate!”
Su Huan looked up at He Jie.
The latter snorted coldly. “No need to worry about a fake surrender. This kid doesn’t have a wife, but he has a big family—his dad and mom, his grandmother, his maternal grandfather are all in the company. They all rely on him alone to support them. He’s just a big-headed soldier with no connections. If he dies, his family will be on the street the next day.”
His weakness exposed, Goat lost it completely and cursed with red eyes, “You old dog—”
“Bang!”
He Jie didn’t indulge him and kicked him hard in the stomach, forcing the rest of his words back.
He grinned ferociously. “Little lamb, even your captain wouldn’t dare talk to your dog dad like that. If you dare run, we’ll go straight over and kill your whole family. We might not be able to break into the company headquarters, but the family area is no problem.”
Goat was a collector, and his physique was not as good as He Jie’s, not to mention that guy had undergone multiple body enhancements.
This kick nearly stomped his internal organs out. He lay on the ground vomiting bile.
He Jie watched his wretched appearance coldly.
He sighed inwardly. Although he didn’t know what Su Huan wanted him for, having no weakness grasped in their hands meant his death would come when they were done using him.
The two had no grudge and came from the same place. Saving one was one.
In the future, on the train, there would be someone to keep company.
Su Huan patted his back with a smile. “Don’t worry, today we’ll go to the Steel Council and rescue your parents and family.”
Goat: “……Thanks, urp.”
……
The team gained another member, and the train conductor was very happy, but Li Tao wouldn’t come down from the sky no matter what, which made Su Huan very unhappy.
Even if they killed most of the twenty soldiers below, the helicopter on the horizon showed no sign of coming to support.
From start to finish, it only fired dozens of rockets before the battle.
Su Huan deliberately exposed several flaws, but whether he advanced or retreated, the attack helicopter maintained a relative distance of more than ten kilometers, far exceeding the effective range of the electromagnetic sniper rifle.
Not to mention ten kilometers—with the armor thickness of the attack helicopter, even at five kilometers, Su Huan had no confidence in penetrating its armor.
Since that was the case, Su Huan didn’t plan to tangle with it anymore.
This battle wasn’t long, but not short either; it had already taken half a day, reaching 11 a.m.
The Steel Council side should have gotten the news by now. It was urgent to get things done while they couldn’t free themselves.
The group moved quickly through the district and county.
Carrying weapons on the chaotic streets, they could leap six or seven meters per second.
And the sound they made was extremely faint.
That essence SPA earlier was already the most luxurious venue locally. The other buildings looked very rundown, with acid rain washing away the original human living traces and the unique vitality of order.
But there were still quite a few survivors.
Apart from the one man and two women killed by Goat in the venue, the group encountered a few more.
But most were ordinary people, and Su Huan had no interest in contacting them.
Thanks to the ostentatious music from the armored train, the zombie hordes originally wandering the streets were drawn away, saving the group a lot of effort.
“Go around from the residential community next to it. The street ahead is a bit dangerous.” Goat, silent in the middle of the team, suddenly said.
Everyone glanced at him, then looked at Su Huan, waiting for his decision.
Yu Yue, lingering at the end of the team, moved her lips slightly. Su Huan grinned. “Then let’s go through the residential community.”
Everyone followed his footsteps and quickly entered the residential community.
This old-style residential community had six buildings in the courtyard, each five stories high, like a school. Each floor shared a long corridor with protective railings welded in the middle. The green paint had been eroded by acid rain and now looked rusty.
Several households still had many potted plants on the corridors. With no one to tend them, the plants grew wildly.
Leaves trailed down along the vines to downstairs.
Su Huan headed straight to Building Two, not going to the unit door, but straight to the wall.
The bionic octopus suckers on his feet exerted force, allowing him to walk steadily on the wall ninety degrees perpendicular to the ground.
He Jie’s ears twitched slightly. He paused for a moment, then picked up the light machine gun and dashed into the corridor.
Zhang Kai followed. Old San and Brother quickly set up firepower points at key positions in the residential community.
Yu Yue observed among several buildings. A pair of long legs wrapped in a bodysuit flexed, and she disappeared behind an open window.
Goat’s eyes flickered. He glanced at Jiang Rong, who had calm eyes nearby, then at Old San and the others not far away who had already set up a firepower net, and dispelled some improper thoughts.
He had some confidence in his own speed and agility.
But he had no intention of testing the crossfire net formed by evolvers.
After all, he didn’t even have a profession now.
He couldn’t act recklessly.
Although the group had split up, Su Huan’s ears were already filled with everyone’s reports.
Old San: “That guy eyed me a few times. Looks like he’s up to no good. Should we take him out!”
Jiang Rong: “I’m watching him from the side. He seems to have given up the idea.”
“Keep watching him. Shoot if he dares to run.”
Su Huan’s voice was cold and clear.
He Jie: “Are you sure that Qu Hang bastard is here?”
Yu Yue: “Yes, he’s moving positions quickly. He must have spotted us. Could he manipulate sound like me?”
“It’s the wind. The wind told him we were coming.”
A glint appeared in Su Huan’s eyes. His superior was similar to Yu Yue; both had taken the wrong path.
They should have followed a pure ability evolution path like Xiao Ba.
But by a twist of fate, both had gone the route combining firearms.
Before having the electromagnetic sniper rifle, Qu Hang used an ordinary high-accuracy sniper rifle, not even an anti-materiel one.
The reason he could penetrate the armored train’s glass from three kilometers was by borrowing the power of the wind.
The wind was not a hindrance to him but an aid to the bullet.
He Jie was about to speak when he heard Su Huan’s voice go silent.
Yu Yue: “He’s on the fourth floor, heading down.”
Su Huan looked up, hand shielding the falling acid rain, and just then saw a leaf above shake.
