Chapter 363: Revenge Mission!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I heard that the boss of this Wild Wolf Town is a 20-year-old young man named Li Yang. Before the apocalypse, he was rhe captain of a ream in a gunfight game…’1
“The name is a little childish, but you must not say that I said it…”
Eagle cautiously glanced at Zhao Yu before speaking softly, Tve said before, all those who were middle school syndrome-ish around him are dead!”
Zhao Yu couldn’t help but be curious, “Your boss is a third-tier enhancer, what level is that Li Yang?”
“An ordinary person!11
“Eh?”
Zhao Yu was startled and asked in confusion, “Li Yang is an ordinary person, not an enhancer?”
“No!”
Eagle bitterly smiled and said, “That Li Yang, 1 don’t know where he found a loyal expert, and trained a group of combat elites…”
“What do you mean?!”
Zhao Yu was increasingly confused. How could an ordinary person manage enhancers?
Eagle seemed to understand his confusion and shook his head, “There are no enhancers in Wild Wolf Town!”
“Ah?”
Zhao Yu couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise. A town without enhancers?
“Then who is this expert you’re talking about?!’1
“He’s a military talent, said to have been an instructor in a certain unit before the apocalypse…”
“No matter how strong an enhancer is, they are still susceptible to a.s.sa.s.sination, just like the saying, no matter how high your martial arts are, you’re afraid of the kitchen knife/ Moreover, in our era, there are guns and cannons…”
Zhao Yu’s interest piqued when Eagle mentioned enhancers, and he inquired, “At what level of enhancer is not afraid of guns?”
“Not afraid of guns…”
Eagle shook his head, “If you mean not afraid of bullets, then basically no enhancer is immune. At least, a fourth-tier enhancer can still die from a shot to the head…”
“Enhancers, although enhanced in various aspects, are still human. They die if shot in the head or heart, and they die from excessive blood loss…”
Essentially, no matter how many enhancers there are, they are still vulnerable to a regular army, just like last time. Even though Meng Xian was a third-tier enhancer, she still carried a gun.
Compared to ordinary people, her physical capabilities were stronger. In unarmed situations, she was unbeatable, and if her opponents had guns, she could use her speed to escape or use the terrain for a stealthy approach.
After hearing Eagle’s explanation, Zhao Yu’s understanding of enhancers gradually became clearer.
Enhancers, not overly mythologized, are essentially just people with greatly enhanced physical abilities.
It’s like tigers and elephants on Earth; in terms of strength, size, and speed, they surpa.s.s humans in some aspects, but are still domesticated by humans.
However, he didn’t underestimate enhancers, as they are not just tigers or elephants, but beings with human intelligence.
This conversation somewhat rea.s.sured Zhao Yu, at least confirming that the world still measured power by military strength.
“How many people are in Wild Wolf Town?”
“Over five thousand!”
“That many?!”
Zhao Yu was surprised; the largest gathering he had seen had only a few hundred people.
“They are a large settlement!”
“It is said that they have some connections with the high levels of Black Rock City, and can even get some weapons for sale…”
Zhao Yu’s interest was piqued, and he asked, “How many people are in Black Rock City?”
“Black Rock City?”
Eagle scratched his head, stumped by the question, “I don’t know, but there must be at least a hundred thousand people, right?”
“Just the camps outside the city must have thirty to fifty thousand people, right?!”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, realizing that Black Rock City was even more powerful than he had thought.
“You said that Wild Wolf Town has a militia?”
“Not exactly!”
“The fame of Wild Wolf Town was hard-earned…”
“It was initially called Wild Wolf Village and wasn’t much noticed…”
“They were quite reserved early on, barely interacting with the outside world, just training every day…”
“It’s said that after hiding for three or four months, they first ventured out and took down a village that had been spying on them…”
“After that, each outing brought them gains, and they would create a significant incident periodically…”
Zhao Yu frowned slightly, “Taking down a village means ma.s.s murder?”
“No!”
“The world is chaotic, but not completely rotten…”
“If they ma.s.sacred a village every time they fought, other powers would have united against them by now…”
“The so-called taking down a village meant killing the leaders of the village, and the other residents were taken back…”
He seemed to know Zhao Yu had been hiding underground for the past few years and explained, “Where 1 was before, the leaders exploited us harshly, making us work 16 hours a day…”
He sighed heavily, as if reluctant to recall his past, and shook his head, “If it weren’t for Meng Xian, we would still be living without dignity…”
Through Eagle’s description, Zhao Yu realized that other settlements were not as benevolent as Meng House Village.
in those places, the lower cla.s.s was ruthlessly exploited, with disobedience met with beating or beheading as a warning, a case of killing the chicken to scare the monkey.
In this post-apocalyptic world, where there are no laws and rules, might makes right, and deceit and manipulation are the norms.
“From this perspective, have I only encountered good people after the apocalypse?”
Reflecting back, the few powers Zhao Yu had encountered didn’t seem bad, at least not as terrifying as Eagle described..
