Chapter 63: Volcano Labyrinth (Part 3)

"Hey! The vehicle in front..."

Boom!

"Damn it, how dare you be so arrogant, wait until I..."

Boom!

"Brothers behind, there are many of us, let's kill them from behind... Ah!!!"

The Ice Cream Cactus rammed the blocking Tricycle aside; while Zhu Zhiquan used the Hand-cranked Flashlight to illuminate the way for the Ice Cream Cactus, he also fired a Crossbow Bolt at the stragglers.

The players chasing from behind clamored one after another that they would finish off Zhu Zhiquan and his companion; seeing this, Zhao Yuxin used the sound to pinpoint their locations and fired Multi-functional Crossbow Bolts, shooting all the pursuers dead.

Soon, the players attracted by the aroma of the self-heating hot pot were frightened by the ruthless methods of Zhu Zhiquan and his companion, and they all kept their distance from their Tricycle.

Zhao Yuxin: "Ajiu, they've left."

Hearing Zhao Yuxin's words, Zhu Zhiquan silently jumped off the Tricycle to toss the dropped Material Boxes onto the Tricycle, taking the opportunity to perform a Soul Sacrifice on them, though unfortunately, most had already dissipated, and it was estimated that not many souls could be sacrificed.

"Honestly, aren't the supplies on these Tricycles supplies too? What a waste! Baobao, reverse the vehicle, yes, slowly reverse it, good, reverse... reverse, reverse, stop." Zhao Yuxin directed the Ice Cream Cactus to reverse the vehicle so she could scavenge for supplies.

While they were scavenging for supplies, a beam of light shone upon them, and then several Tricycles arrived from afar, stopping a few dozen meters away from Zhu Zhiquan and his companion before the occupants disembarked.

Zhu Zhiquan quickly jumped onto the roof of the nearest Tricycle and aimed his Wrist-Mounted Strange Crossbow at them; the leader hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Hey, hey, hey, don't be impulsive, we've come to invite you to join our alliance."

Zhu Zhiquan made a gesture of invitation, signaling his refusal of their offer. The underling behind him saw Zhu Zhiquan's somewhat disdainful attitude and barked, "Hey! What are you acting so tough for! Let me tell you, this is our..."

The leader waved his hand, appearing very magnanimous, "Hey, young people, it's normal to be hot-blooded."

Zhao Yuxin took the opportunity to step forward and explain, "Ac... actually, the reason my teammate isn't speaking is that his throat was injured recently, so it's inconvenient for him to talk."

The group shone their flashlights onto Zhao Yuxin and discovered that her looks were quite good, so they all became restless.

One underling said lewdly to the leader, "Financial Director, look, the brothers have been here for a week, and quite a few of them haven't had any... you know. What do you think?"

The Financial Director nodded, and that underling said to Zhu Zhiquan and his companion, "Hey, little girl, our Financial Director says that as long as you play with us for a while, we won't hold your teammate's mistake against you."

The others burst into laughter upon hearing this, while Zhao Yuxin came gently to Zhu Zhiquan's side and helped analyze the situation: "Ajiu, look, they have four vehicles, and each vehicle has two people, which means there are eight of them.

Besides, your injury hasn't healed yet; why don't we just join them, or if that doesn't work, I'll sacrifice myself and beg them to let us leave."

Zhu Zhiquan frowned and remained silent, while one of the men opposite said in a contemptuous tone, "How about it? Pretty little girl, do you agree..."

*Whoosh~*

A Crossbow Bolt struck that underling directly; Zhu Zhiquan quickly reloaded the Crossbow Bolt and aimed at the Financial Director. This sudden move by Zhu Zhiquan not only startled Zhao Yuxin but also caught everyone present by surprise.

"A... Ajiu, what are you doing!? There are so many of them, how could you just attack!" Zhao Yuxin said, pulling at Zhu Zhiquan with her cold hands.

Zhu Zhiquan glanced at her without speaking, and the boss opposite, seeing that Zhu Zhiquan had killed one of their men without a word, was furious and simultaneously covered himself in a layer of scales.

"Good kid, you're pretty tough! We have four or five Tricycles here and..." While the Financial Director was still spouting threats, Zhu Zhiquan had already switched the Multi-functional Crossbow Bolt to explosive mode and fired one at the Financial Director's forehead.

Boom!

The violent explosion caused the entire Huoshan Migong to tremble. Once the shockwave of the explosion ended, Zhu Zhiquan drew the Dingtang Sword from his waist, simultaneously activated Boiling Blood and Nightmare Demon Eye, and charged into the squad like lightning to slaughter everyone.

The survivors of the squad were somewhat dazed by the explosion just now and were basically all killed by Zhu Zhiquan alone before they could even react.

The Financial Director had been severely wounded in the explosion; he used his last bit of strength to take a photo of Zhu Zhiquan, then endured a sword strike from Zhu Zhiquan to run back to his Tricycle and trade the photo away.

After sending the photo, the Financial Director laughed wildly at Zhu Zhiquan: "Hahaha~ you brat, just you wait! Our Regiment Leader will avenge me! Hahaha... urgh..."

Zhu Zhiquan fired a Crossbow Bolt at him, then performed a sword flourish before sheathing the sword. Zhao Yuxin suddenly threw herself into his arms and began to cry loudly.

Zhu Zhiquan stood there, somewhat at a loss, letting Zhao Yuxin sob in his arms.

After a long while, Zhao Yuxin finally stopped her crying slightly, but her voice still carried a distinct sob: "Ajiu, do you know how dangerous you were just now! You scared me to death!"

Zhu Zhiquan remained silent, his head lowered without saying a word. At the same time, Zhu Zhiquan held Zhao Yuxin tightly in his arms, his brows knitted together, and a murderous aura constantly emanated from his eyes.

After venting, Zhao Yuxin's mood calmed down a bit, and she said worriedly: "Ajiu, I just saw that so-called Director trade your photo away. Do you think their Regiment Leader will find us, and then..."

Zhu Zhiquan interrupted her, saying disdainfully: "Regiment Leader? Hmph, so what! If one day he dares to lead a crowd to attack, I shall surely break them in one strike!"

Zhao Yuxin covered her face and laughed: "Ajiu, I didn't expect you to be even more pretentious than me."

Zhu Zhiquan said softly: "Alright, you go eat first, I'll go clean up the battlefield with the Ice Cream Cactus."

"Mm~" Zhao Yuxin returned to the Tricycle to eat her self-heating hot pot, which had spilled soup everywhere. After Zhu Zhiquan finished the Soul Sacrifice, he collected the supplies from the scene with the Ice Cream Cactus.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Huoshan Migong, a corpulent man slowly walked out of a carriage after enjoying the service of four female players.

At this moment, an underling ran over in a panic to report: "It's bad, Regiment Leader, our Financial Director has been killed!"

Upon hearing this, the corpulent man's eyes widened instantly, and he roared: "What? Someone actually dared to touch my Financial Director! Who did it!"

The underling took out a photo of a person and said: "The Financial Director traded this photo over before he died, and this person is the culprit who murdered our Financial Director!"

The man took the photo; although the lighting in the photo wasn't very good, one could still vaguely see Zhu Zhiquan's appearance.

The man clenched his fists and ordered: "Pass on my command, all members of the Black Scorpion Group assemble! Avenge our Financial Director!"

"Understood!" The underling opened his panel and posted the man's words to the team channel.
