Chapter 384: Fight in the Old City! (2)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Jumping down from the second floor wasn’t difficult for Zhao Yu; he could do it too. However, with all the equipment he was carrying, jumping down like that could easily lead to fractures. It wasn’t worth it just to show off.
Just as they stepped out of the building, Luo Bing apologized, “I forgot you guys are ordinary people. Next time we’ll take the stairs…”
“It’s okay!”
Zhao Yu waved his hand, indicating that moving across the bridge was more important.
Thus, the group hurriedly proceeded towards the bridge.
Unbeknownst to them, as they passed the building the man had left earlier, a young man’s head popped out from the upper floor.
“Thank you…”
He seemed to be a young man, unsure whether to show himself or not.
“It’s no big deal. With your strength, it’s better to search the outskirts…”
Luo Bing said indifferently, not turning her head as she continued to walk forward.
The young man watched them with envy, secretly clenching his fist, determined to save up enough money to join the Reed Group and become an enhancer.
Zhao Yu noticed that after she walked past, the corners of her mouth slightly turned up, seemingly pleased with her own performance.
Zhao Yu inwardly chuckled, realizing she wasn’t as mature as he had thought.
The group crossed the bridge smoothly and walked a few hundred meters further, when they encountered another wave of mutants.
This time, they showed enough professionalism. They spotted the mutants from a hundred meters away and promptly took Zhao Yu and others into hiding in a building.
“There are people in that building…”
Luo Bing pointed towards a distant building.
Zhao Yu looked and saw that this wave of mutants was not aimlessly wandering, but launching an attack on a building.
There were more than twenty mutants, even more than the previous wave.
Zhao Yu remained silent, curious to see how Luo Bing would handle it.
“We’re planning to make a move to rescue them…” Luo Bing directly revealed her intention.
“Taking a detour might encounter other mutants. The best way is still to deal with them…”
“Okay!”
Zhao Yu nodded, gesturing for them to proceed as they wished.
Luo Bing glad that Zhao Yu was understanding and not overthinking.
“Xiao Xiao, Ah Ming, you two attract the mutants. At that intersection, lead them to the left and right sides…” She turned to her teammates and instructed them.
After a short discussion about the tactics, the rest of her team hurried off.
After waiting for a moment, Zhao Yu heard several bird calls.
He saw Luo Bing put her hand to her mouth, forming a hand shape, and whistled a bird call as well.
Two enhancers appeared in front of them, rushing towards the mutants.
They made no effort to hide their movements and were quickly discovered by the mutants.
Immediately, the mutants split into three groups; one stayed to continue attacking the building, while the other two chased after the enhancers.
This was followed by another round of fighting that was out of sight.
“Bu Gu ~~!”
“Bu Gu ~~!”
” Let’s go!” Luo Bing stood up and smiled.” They’re done!”
This time, she did not jump out of the window. Instead, she led Zhao Yu and the others down the stairs.
The previous time, she could at least cover it up by forgetting, but the second time, it would be a provocation, so she was very honest.
Zhao Yu also understood that Luo Bing and the others had intentionally shown him that entering the city was their home ground and that it was not a loss to hire them.
After reaching the intersection and meeting up with the other six Enhancers, Zhao Yu finally saw the mutants that had been taken care of.
All the mutants lay dead in a clean and efficient manner. Except for one that seemed to have been struck by a heavy object and was dismembered, the others died peacefully, killed with a single blow.
Zhao Yu glanced at a muscular second-tier enhancer in his team, suspecting he was responsible for the brutal efficiency. He seemed like a strength-type enhancer.
When they reached the intersection, the five or six mutants originally guarding the building also charged at them.
The muscular second-tier enhancer, without a word, charged straight into the fray.
The two sides clashed in close combat. Before the leading mutant could even swing its tail, it was struck head-on.
“Boom!” A shower of blood followed.
This brutal scene left Zhao Yu speechless.
He was certain that with the man’s strength, dealing with the mutants could have been done more… elegantly.
Not like now, covered in blood!
Two more members from the team took out the remaining mutants.
The muscular enhancer returned to the team, grinned at Zhao Yu, exuding a fierce aura.
“The blood of the mutants can mask our scent…” as if his blood-soaked state was intended to cover their smell.
Luo Bing didn’t bother to respond and headed straight for the building.
The others followed closely.
Han Xiao Xiao stopped Zhao Yu, “Boss, maybe you should wait a moment…”
“What’s the matter?”
“There are survivors upstairs. Let the captain negotiate first before we know their situation…”
Zhao Yu understood that they were concerned about potential conflicts affecting their safety.
After a while, Luo Bing and the others came downstairs, and Zhao Yu noticed they seemed to have acquired some additional items.
A handgun—was it a reward for resolving the crisis of the people upstairs?
Zhao Yu realized why Luo Bing and her team had decided to deal with that group of mutants.
Apart from the concern of taking a detour, it was more about the opportunity for some extra gain.
Soon, Zhao Yu and his group set off again. As they passed the building, several figures appeared at the windows. Without speaking, they just brought their hands together and nodded in a gesture of thanks for the help provided..
