My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1396
[1386. Chapter 1367: Do I need a reason to kill you?]
The journey of life is always so wonderful.
In these long and short years, there are too many ordinary people, with neither spectacular stories nor thrilling experiences.
Just like tiny dust in the world, they quietly occupy their own place in the world and live an ordinary and real life.
However, there are always some people whose lives seem to be particularly favored by the god of luck. Even
if you only extract one day’s experience, you can write a novel with ups and downs.
Lu Guangyin was eagerly awakened from his deep sleep by Xu Dong, and his eyes were still a little confused and sleepy.
He rubbed his hazy eyes and his vision gradually focused, but the scene in front of him made him sober instantly, and an inexplicable astonishment and disbelief surged in his heart. At
this moment, he once thought that he was still in a dream because he was too tired and had a nightmare.
However, Xu Dong’s burning breath and anxious expression cruelly reminded him that all this was reality.
The wooden boat was surrounded by ships of all sizes, as if they were holding a meeting.
He saw nearly ten familiar frigates, which were exactly the same as the two that sank last night, both in terms of paint and shape. The decks were full of human heads and black gun muzzles pointing at them.
There were also guerrilla boats smaller than the frigates, which were like cunning wolves, cruising around.
Of course, the central command ship in the center position was definitely the most eye-catching.
But at this time, Lu Guangyin had no time to look at these spectacular ships that gathered the crystallization of human industry.
He turned his head, his eyes intertwined with astonishment and despair, and looked straight at Xu Dong, his voice trembling:
“Tell me, I am still dreaming, right? All this is not real, right?”
Xu Dong’s face was pale. He avoided Lu Guangyin’s gaze, swallowed hard, and then whispered: “No, this is not a dream, we, we are really surrounded.”
“Why, didn’t we escape?”
Lu Guangyin’s tone was full of sadness, as if he had lost all his strength, leaning against the side of the ship dejectedly.
The surrounding iron boats seemed to be approaching them, and their wooden boats seemed so fragile and small in this steel forest.
Even if they had guns in their hands, what was the use?
“Uh”
Xu Dong took a breath, not knowing how to answer this question. Was
he going to say that he was chasing the light and was surrounded by the enemy while chasing?
“It was me, I accidentally fell into their ambush.”
“Ah?”
It sounded a bit outrageous, but it seemed very normal in connection with all the things that had happened recently.
Lu Guangyin stood up in a daze, and his eyes met a guerrilla boat that was heading towards the wooden boat.
The guerrilla boat was full of soldiers armed with live ammunition, and they stared at the two of them like wolves and tigers.
Seeing the murderous intent that was almost bursting out of their eyes, Lu Guangyin would never doubt that if he made any overstepping movements now, the other party would immediately and decisively shoot.
“So, what did you do?”
“When you just went to bed, I saw a light appearing in the sky, so I rowed the boat to chase the light. Unexpectedly, I met their people before I found the light, and then this fleet surrounded us.”
“Fuck, you idiot.”
After learning what happened, Lu Guangyin really wanted to kick Xu Dong off the wooden boat.
He was just thinking that such a huge fleet passing by on the river, anyone who was not blind could see it.
It would take a very outrageous situation to be ambushed by this thing.
Now the answer is out, it is not that they are ambushed by others, but that they chased into the ambush circle.
If the other side knew that they sank the two ships, they would skin them alive.
“You didn’t tell them what happened in the Mining Island Alliance?”
“Of course I didn’t, I didn’t communicate with them, okay?” Xu Dong muttered softly, “And I’m not a fool. Even if I communicate with them, I won’t tell them that we sank the two ships.”
At first, he encountered only a guerrilla boat, but the other side just looked at them from a distance and kept chasing behind the wooden boat, neither moving forward nor leaving.
Later, the large fleet came from behind and forced the wooden boat to stop on the river.
“That’s good, don’t speak for a while.” Xu Dong’s answer made Lu Guangyin feel relieved. He breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had escaped a disaster.
He still held a glimmer of hope, thinking that the soldiers were just doing routine work and checking all ships leaving the Mining Island Alliance.
Although the guns and bullets on the wooden boat seemed unreasonable at first glance, there was always room for maneuver.
After all, in this chaotic era, there are always some excuses that can be made.
The guerrilla boat approached quickly and finally stopped on the water about five meters away from the wooden boat.
This distance was close enough for Lu Guangyin to clearly see the faces, uniforms, and weapons of the soldiers on the boat.
The two ships of the Mining Island Alliance came from the same place.
The only difference was that the temperament of these soldiers was more stern and serious. They looked like the elite among the elites, and people did not have the slightest idea of questioning their combat effectiveness.
Under Lu Guangyin’s nervous and uneasy gaze, the soldiers did not ask immediately, but silently took out two folders from the cabin. At
this moment, Lu Guangyin’s heart sank suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
Although he did not understand what the documents in the other party’s hand recorded, the behavior of looking up and down from time to time seemed to be checking.
“Are you… Lu Guangyin?”
The question of the soldier at the bow was like a bolt from the blue, instantly piercing Lu Guangyin’s mental defense.
He felt dizzy, as if the whole world was spinning.
At this moment, Lu Guangyin knew clearly that he could not escape. Perhaps the moment the ships surrounded them meant that their whereabouts had been exposed, and all the cover-ups and disguises became meaningless.
“I” Lu Guangyin spoke with difficulty, his voice hoarse and low.
He wanted to make excuses, but he had no idea where to start.
“Lord Lu, you are very brave. First, you took away a lot of supplies that ordinary people needed to survive, and then you made a big news in the Mining Island Alliance.”
What?
How do they know that I am the lord of Mengyue Territory? And they know that I ran away with the supplies?
At this moment, the doubts in Lu Guangyin’s heart even overshadowed his despair. All kinds of complex emotions were intertwined and reached a climax.
“Who are you?”
Lu Guangyin opened his mouth, but finally sighed helplessly, extinguishing all hope.
Now, he no longer thinks about how to survive, but only wants to ask the questions in his heart before he dies.
Such a fleet, such heavy industrial equipment, which territory produced it?
Why has he never heard any related rumors or discussions on the world channel?
“Huh? You want to know our identity so much?”
The soldier smiled playfully, and the guerrilla boat approached quickly, and several soldiers jumped down as light as a swallow.
As the small wooden boat suddenly sank, the big hands like iron hoops tightly grasped Lu Guangyin and Xu Dong.
With the previous experience of Lao Xu, the two were stripped naked without any resistance.
Only after confirming that they did not hide any bombs or other dangerous items on their bodies did the soldiers escort the two to the guerrilla boat.
“Give us back our clothes, we didn’t provoke you!” After all, Xu Dong was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. He didn’t understand what happened and said unconvincedly.
However, in response to him, a cold palm suddenly appeared at his throat.
Like a crane, the other party pinched his neck and lifted him up with one hand, revealing a cold smile.
“Do I need a reason to kill you?”
Uh.
Xu Dong was pinched so hard that he couldn’t breathe. After a while, the soldiers threw him into the cabin like garbage.
He coughed repeatedly, and when he raised his head, there was no resentment in his eyes, only fear.
“Tianlang Tianlang, the suspect has been identified!”
“Received, please escort the suspect to the Starlight for detention, and hand him over after arriving at Tiantie Island.”
“Received!”
Mining Island Alliance.
Without the impact of the cooling disaster, the sun near noon in the southern fire area is extremely hot, with the temperature approaching 40 degrees.
Survivors who are accustomed to the regional characteristics often avoid activities during this time period, choosing to be busy in the morning and evening, and even miners will choose to rest at noon.
However, today, the six islands are completely different from the past.
Whether it is the seaside pier, the planting land on the island, or even the undeveloped areas, there are crowds of people everywhere.
People huddled together in panic, full of confusion about the future.
After an extremely chaotic night, Qianshan Island, Yinsha Island and Huoshi Island, which were not poisoned by the war, were relatively stable.
But Shuima Island and Jinyan Island, the center of the battle, were not so optimistic. Many civilians died under the artillery fire, and buildings collapsed in large areas.
And there was also a piece of bad news that made people unable to calm down.
Except for Tiantie Island, the managers of the other five islands died or surrendered. As long as no other accidents happen, the alliance can now be said to be Sun Guangmin’s alliance!
What’s going on?
If Tiantie Island used to be the strongest island in the Mining Island Alliance, it would be fine if it is now out of the picture.
But the truth is that Tiantie Island and Shuima Island are evenly matched, so how could they have the ability to clean up all the other five islands in the alliance at once?
There is definitely something strange about this.
Fortunately, Sun Guangmin is a manager with a good reputation in the alliance. Before the situation deteriorates further, the survivors chose to stay for the time being.
After all, they have been developing in the Mining Island Alliance for more than half a year.
If they leave in a hurry, who knows if similar things will happen in the next place they go.
Yinsha Island.
At the door of a smelting plant, a middle-aged man got off a rickshaw in a panic.
He is Danny Coman, the director of the plant and one of the deputy managers of Yinsha Island.
The reason why he is one of them is that Yinsha Island is different from other islands.
There are more than a dozen deputy managers here, and all those who are capable have been appointed as deputy managers by the manager Mayor to deepen his rule and hegemony.
However, after Mayor died on Shuima Island last night, there are probably few people who dare to admit that they are the deputy managers of this Yinsha Island.
Everyone scattered like birds and beasts, fearing that they would be the next target.
Of course, Danny Koman is one of the few people who still admits that he is a deputy manager.
After all, as long as this smelting plant cannot run away, even if he does not admit his identity, he will be regarded as one of the targets.
“Mr. Koman!” In the factory, many anxiously waiting workers saw Danny Koman coming back and hurriedly chased him, asking panicked questions one by one.
Those survivors who have nothing can leave at any time, and run away to other places without caring about anything.
But they have invested too much in this island and this factory, so how can they leave at any time.
Moreover, the output of the smelting plant has stabilized, and the harvest season is about to come.
As long as they can find a buyer, Yinsha Island will have a steady stream of income, thus forming a circular chain.
It can be said that this place has become their home and livelihood. No one is willing to leave now.
“I don’t know the specific situation, but there should not be a larger-scale chaos for the time being.”
Danny Coman’s face was a little pale, and he kept explaining what he had heard.
At present, the managers of the neighboring Qianshan Island and their Yinsha Island are 100% sure to be dead.
Both of them died tragically on Shuima Island because of greed. It is said that their bodies were blown into pieces by rockets and stuck to the wall and couldn’t be picked off.
The end of Wu Jiahao, the manager of Shuima Island, was not much better.
I don’t know what kind of crazy the people under this guy went. Not only did they send people to steal the weapons of those outsiders, but they also fought with them, and finally both sides were injured.
The outsider’s ship sank, and Wu Jiahao’s Shuima Island Corps was also annihilated.
Now Wu Jiahao is detained in the prison of Tiantie Island, and it seems that he is in danger.
As for Enkobat, the manager of Jinyan Island, and Hua Qingyun, the manager of Huoshi Island.
These two guys were quite perceptive. They decisively chose to surrender when they found something was wrong. Now they should be fine, just temporarily under house arrest for investigation.
It’s a pity that they didn’t expect that when Wu Jiahao’s people went crazy, they would bite anyone they saw.
The dense rain of bullets shot randomly, and many people were shot to death before they had time to dodge.
Only some people who jumped into the water in time survived, but compared with the total number, this number was pitifully small.
“Is there nothing wrong with Tiantie Island?”
“I’m afraid so.” Danny Koman nodded, not knowing how to continue.
The only one of the six islands that stayed out of the matter was Tiantie Island, and only Sun Guangmin was the manager.
This is both a good thing and a bad thing.
Sun Guangmin is a man without too many ambitions. If he controls the Mining Island Alliance, the safety of ordinary survivors should not be a problem, and the smelting plants on the major islands will not be forcibly occupied by him.
But without ambition, it means that the Mining Island Alliance can no longer maintain its previous strength.
Once it encounters a strong enemy invasion like the outsiders last night, it is only a matter of time before the alliance changes hands.
