~6 min read 1,040 words

Lin Chen and Xia Nuan walked into the kitchen, Xia Nuan looked at his tense side face,

and said softly: "Don't be angry with them, they are just scared, that's why they vent their emotions on you." Lin Chen took a deep breath, suppressed the restlessness in his body,

and asked the system: "System, detect if there are any abnormalities within 5 kilometers around the villa, will the companions of the monsters just now come over?"

【Detected no abnormalities around, no signs of mutant creature gathering, can be temporarily at ease.】 The system replied.

The two just prepared to find something to eat, the villa's communicator suddenly rang, Lin Chen pressed the answer button,

and Zhang Qiang's voice came from inside: "Lin Chen, it's bad! We encountered a group of people in black clothes in Chengdong, they have weapons in their hands, and they are grabbing our supplies,

can you come and help?" Lin Chen frowned and asked the system: "System,

detect the identity of the people in black mentioned by Zhang Qiang, are they the remnants of 'X'?"

【Detected 8 people in black, carrying controlled knives and rifles, not the remnants of 'X', should be ordinary raiders.】 The system replied.

"We can help you, but you have to tell us, does this group of raiders have a fixed stronghold?

" Lin Chen asked. Zhang Qiang hurriedly said: "Yes! Their stronghold is at the abandoned gas station in Chengdong,

there are still a few people guarding inside, if you can take down their stronghold,

we are willing to share half of the supplies with you!" Lin Chen looked at Xia Nuan, Xia Nuan nodded: "Go and see, raiders are also a hidden danger if left, they will come to find trouble sooner or later."

The two took the Purple Lightning Purification Gun and lighter, got into the armored vehicle and drove toward Chengdong. On the way, Lin Chen asked the system: "System, can you find out the defense situation of the raider stronghold? Are there any back doors or weak points?"

【Detected the gas station stronghold only has one front door, there is a damaged fence on the side, can enter from the fence, there are 3 guards inside, 5 guards at the front door.】 The system replied.

After arriving in Chengdong, Lin Chen let Zhang Qiang and his men attract the attention of the front door guards in the distance,

while he and Xia Nuan circled to the side and climbed in from the damaged fence.

The inside of the gas station was piled full of supplies grabbed by the raiders, 3 guards were sitting on the ground playing cards, completely not noticing someone coming in. Lin Chen made a gesture to Xia Nuan,

the two attacked at the same time, hit the legs of the guards with silenced pistols, they screamed and fell to the ground, and were tied up by Lin Chen with ropes.

"Speak,

where is your leader?

" Lin Chen asked. One of the guards trembled and said,

"At... at the gas station office,

he has a submachine gun in his hand,

don't kill me!

" Lin Chen and Xia Nuan walked toward the office, just arrived at the door, and heard an argument coming from inside, seemingly the leader was scolding his subordinates for not doing things well.

Lin Chen suddenly thought of a way, he took out a lighter from his pocket, and found a few pieces of broken cloth,

wrapped them on the wooden stick beside him, making a simple torch. Xia Nuan immediately understood his meaning: "You want to burn their supplies, forcing them to come out?" Lin Chen nodded: "Supplies are their lifeline, burning the supplies, they will definitely panic, by then Zhang Qiang and the others can take the opportunity to solve the guards at the front door."

He lit the torch, threw it beside the supply pile, the broken cloth burned quickly, the flames spread along the supplies,

emitting thick smoke. The leader in the office heard the movement, indeed rushed out,

saw the burning supplies, shouted anxiously: "Quickly put out the fire! Don't let the supplies burn!"

The guards at the front door heard the shouting, also ran in one after another to put out the fire, Zhang Qiang took his men and took the opportunity to rush in, beat the unarmed guards, and soon controlled the situation.

The leader saw the situation was not right, wanted to run away with the submachine gun, Lin Chen immediately mobilized the Absolute Zero ability,

condensed an ice cone, hit his wrist, and the submachine gun fell to the ground. The leader screamed,

was pointed at the head by Xia Nuan with a gun: "Don't move! If you move again I'll shoot!" Zhang Qiang and his men also surrounded, punching and kicking the leader: "Let you grab our supplies! See how you run this time!"

Lin Chen stopped them: "Don't beat him to death, still useful." He asked the system: "System, detect if these raiders have other strongholds?

Or have accomplices?

【Detected these raiders only have this one stronghold, no other accomplices, can be disposed of with peace of mind.】 The system replied.

Lin Chen said to Zhang Qiang: "You share half of the supplies, we take the rest, you can handle these raiders however you want, don't come to bother us again."

Zhang Qiang nodded repeatedly: "Thank you! If we encounter trouble later,

can we still ask you for help?" Lin Chen didn't answer, moved half of the supplies to the armored vehicle with Xia Nuan, preparing to leave. Just got into the car,

heard screams coming from behind, presumably Zhang Qiang and the others were taking revenge on the raiders. Xia Nuan looked at Lin Chen: "You used a lighter to burn supplies just now, then let Zhang Qiang and the others do it, does it count as borrowing a knife to kill?" Lin Chen started the car,

looked at the front and said: "In the apocalypse, being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself, doing this is the most effortless, and won't dirty our hands." The armored vehicle gradually drove away from the gas station, the flames behind were still burning, reddening half the sky.
