Chapter 641: Chapter 522, Bite Them Hard (One Update Today)_2 Chapter 641: Chapter 522, Bite Them Hard (One Update Today)_2 The drawbridge slowly lowered.
The motorcycle rider went straight in.
The drawbridge was raised again.
Tossing aside the motorcycle, he quickly walked toward the building and ascended to the second floor.
Standing outside a room, he knocked on the door and called out, “Brother Liang, I've come back with some intel.”
“Wait a minute!” came a voice from inside.
Soon, the door opened, and a young-looking yet slightly gaunt woman came out, quickly leaving with her head lowered.
The motorcycle man watched the woman's retreating figure for a good while before entering the room.
The room was dimly lit, offering scant protection from the chill.
A middle-aged man with a crew cut, standing less than 1.7 meters tall with a slightly dark complexion, was sitting on the couch, casually fastening his belt.
“What was that noise just now, has the army entered the city?”
The motorcycle man immediately turned around, his voice urgent, “Brother Liang, it's the Skeletons, a vast sea of bone soldiers, wearing armor and wielding iron spears, and there were bone dragons too, that one that dropped us food before, along with trucks.”
Liang Zheng's eyes sharpened, “The people from Xinfu City?”
“Definitely, I haven't heard of any other bases that have those dragons, it has to be them.”
Liang Zheng immediately became tense as well, “What are they doing here? No, that's not right, where are they now, could they be coming this way?”
The underling said, “I don't know, I suspected it was them and came straight back, not sure if they'll head this way.”
Tap tap tap~!
While they were speaking, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Then another person rushed in, his voice frantic, “Brother Liang, it's not good, a group of Skeletons is approaching our way, and there are too many of them.”
Liang Zheng abruptly stood up, his eyes filled with suspicion and horror.
Heading our way?
That shouldn't be, we have no dealings with them.
Why come straight over here?
Are they wanting to cross the bridge?
Right, could it be they want to cross the bridge!
“Brother Liang, what should we do?”
Liang Zheng pulled out a handgun from the drawer and said, “Tell the brothers to get ready, we'll all go out and take a look.”
“Brother Liang, they are from Xinfu City, there are too many bone soldiers.”
“Stop wasting words, we've got nowhere to run,” Liang Zheng tucked the handgun away and put on a down jacket, saying, “Maybe we can still make a score.”
They quickly walked to another building.
Looking through the window, they could see the vehicles stopped far away and an endless view of Skeletons.
Swallowing his saliva, he still said, “Go give them a walkie-talkie, I want to have a chat with them.”
After thinking for a moment, he continued, “And tell the brothers to get the explosives we obtained last time ready, just in case.”
Not long after they started.
The convoy began to slow down again.
Over the walkie-talkie, the report from the lead vehicle came through, “Sister Qi, we can see the bridge now, there seems to be a structure built over the bridge, blocking it.”
Qi Hancai frowned, looking at Wu Heng, “There are survivors on the bridge.”
Wu Heng nodded, “Tell the convoy to stop, wait a moment.”
Qi Hancai picked up the walkie-talkie, “Slow down the convoy, stop.”
The convoy came to a slow stop, and the Skeleton Army also stood by on the spot.
The Skeleton Flying Dragon landed on the ground, shaking its head and wagging its tail.
Just as the convoy had stopped, the walkie-talkie crackled again, “Sister Qi, someone's coming from the other side, and they've brought a walkie-talkie.”
Qi Hancai said, “Bring it to me.”
Someone hurriedly walked to the back and handed over an old, yellow-taped walkie-talkie.
The walkie-talkie's battery was almost drained, as the warning light kept flashing.
Then there was the rustling sound of static, “Hello~! Is this Xinfu City's refuge?”
Qi Hancai pressed the button, “Yes, we'd like to pass through here, please allow us the convenience.”
There was silence on the other end, then the voice responded, “Ah, this is tricky, we've already built structures on the bridge, to let you through, we'd have to tear it down, and in this cold winter, you see, it's not easy.”
Qi Hancai replied, “We've cleared the area outside, you can find buildings to winter in, safer than these temporary shelters.”
“But, we are accustomed to living here, we have no intention of moving out yet.”
Qi Hancai was about to speak again when Wu Heng interjected, “Ask them what they want.”
“Do you have any demands?”
“Typical of a big refuge, so businesslike. Give us 100 bags of large-sized grain and one of your military trucks, we'll lower the drawbridge right away, and send you across,” said the voice from the other side.
Qi Hancai looked at Wu Heng.
“Don't agree to it yet.”
Qi Hancai said into the walkie-talkie, “We need to discuss it, please wait a moment.”
“Fine.”
Qi Hancai cast a puzzled look.
Wu Heng said, “Just wait.”
“Okay,” Qi Hancai nodded, picking up their own walkie-talkie to pass on the instructions.
After waiting for a while.
Xiao Xiao flew back.
In the shared vision, they heard about the preparation of explosives.
Wu Heng's eyes narrowed instantly.
He whispered, “Go, kill them.”
“What?” Qi Hancai, thinking the comment was for her, asked softly.
“Nothing, let's just wait a bit,” Wu Heng said, then crossed his arms and waited on the side.
Inside a building on the bridge.
Liang Zheng and a few others were waiting for the outcome.
Someone asked, “Brother Liang, aren't the terms you're asking for a bit excessive? They'll never agree to that.”
Liang Zheng suddenly turned, his face displaying a hint of excitement, “They're definitely in a hurry to get across, they don't have time to stall with us here, we'll take whatever we can get, bite them hard once, and then we'll follow their route out of here after they've gone across, no need to worry about revenge.”
“Can we really do that?”
“Why not…” Liang Zheng's speech suddenly halted mid-sentence.
His movements became rigid, his eyes wide open with terror.
Crack~!
The sound of twisting bones echoed.
