Chapter 004 The robbers didn't come

The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. Luo Xiu looked at the door of the well room in front of him and thought that he must not let them attract a large army.

He gritted his teeth and rushed in.

As soon as he reached the door, gunshots were heard behind him. Several bullets hit his body, and the force generated made Luo Xiu rush inside at a faster speed.

Luo Xiu, who was lying on the ground, immediately looked up and saw that the last bandit was indeed standing next to an ancient radio, sending out a distress signal:

"Yes, there are a lot of people on the other side, at least 20 people, we are surrounded, requesting support, requesting support ... "

Hearing the noise at the door, he immediately turned around and happened to stare into the eyes of Luo Xiu.

The next second, both sides raised their guns and shot at each other.

As the gunshots rang out, large bullets were fired from the robber's shotgun, making dents on Luo Xiu's ceramic armor.

At the same time, several light bullets pierced the robber's tattered clothes, tore his body and broke his bones.

"Oh my god, with such high defense ... I'm at a loss." The robber fell down limply.

The robber upstairs heard the noise and stuck his head over to see, but was forced back by Luo Xiu with a few bullets.

At this time, gunshots were heard outside, one near and one far away.

It seems that the guide Xiaolin had a quarrel with the bandits outside.

"We can't let them delay time." Luo Xiu picked up a fist-sized stone from the ground, smiled, and threw it into the small door above his head.

A panicked voice was heard inside , " Grenade ... "

Then there was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

"That robber jumped down, great."

Luo Xiu stepped forward, closed the door of the well house, and locked it from the inside.

That way they can't come in.

Afterwards, Luo Xiu climbed up to the top sentry post and occupied the highest view.

With a quick glance, he saw that the robber who jumped down was rushing towards the tent in front of him. It seemed that he also wanted to hide in it.

He quickly raised his gun, and the crosshairs that appeared in his eyes had already locked onto the opponent, and then several bullets accurately pierced his body.

Covered in blood, he fell down limply.

"There's only one left. Is there still any need to struggle?"

Luo Xiu hid behind a half-high defensive wall and shouted to the people below:

"You are the only one left now. You have no chance of winning. Surrender now."

"Surrender? Haha ... " A dark figure shuttled back and forth between the tents, "Our people will be back soon. Now you should be the ones worried."

Luo Xiu aimed several times but couldn't find his whereabouts, so he had to give up.

"Haha, when our people come back, I will make you wish you were dead. Since you dared to kill my brothers, you are truly unforgivable."

From the sound, it can be judged that the other party is moving away from the well.

"Which direction did you leave from? ... Oh no, it was towards Xiaolin."

Realizing that something was wrong, Luo Xiu ran down from the sentry post, rushed out of the gate, and ran directly towards Xiaolin.

At the same time, he shouted , " Xiao Lin, be careful, he is approaching you, hide quickly."

"Don't worry, watch me beat him into a sieve." But Kobayashi showed strong confidence.

I don't know where he gets that confidence from.

“I’m really worried.”

The dim environment and numerous tents seemed like a maze. For a moment, Luo Xiu entered the tent and quickly lost his sense of direction.

"What should we do? We really can't delay this any longer, or else it will be really bad."

Luo Xiu thought for a moment and decided to shout:

"Xiao Lin, let's retreat first. The enemy may get the news that you have obtained the supplies and attack you."

"Huh? How could you know our plan?" An incredible voice came from not far away.

"Huh? It really is an attack on Lisuo Town. I guessed it right."

Luo Xiu pointed his gun in the direction where the other party made the sound and fired. The light bullet fell nearby and tore countless holes in the tent.

The other side was suppressed by the firepower and dared not show their heads. They remained silent.

When they were at a certain distance, Luo Xiu met up with the guide Xiao Lin and turned to run towards the ground.

They rode their motorcycles away quickly as they needed to report the situation here to Mayor Lisuo.

The headlights were turned on, and the bright white light illuminated the ground. Unlike the previous time, this time they were moving at an extremely fast speed.

I can’t wait to go back to Lisuo Town right now.

Now the militia in the town of Lisuo are resting in preparation for tomorrow's battle.

But no one expected that this gang of thieves would be so bold that they would actually attack the town of Lisuo one step ahead.

If Mayor Li Suo was not prepared, he would definitely suffer a great loss.

"Damn it, these damn bandits, what qualifications do they have to be recruited? They should be eliminated."

The guide Xiao Lin kept complaining along the way, making Luo Xiu's head buzz.

Luo Xiu had no way of refutation about this. The person he recruited was indeed too hasty.

After about ten minutes, the two returned to the small town of Lisuo.

Darkness had enveloped it, and it was quiet inside, like the mouth of a wild beast waiting for its prey to enter.

At this moment, a beam of light flashed, followed by a buzzing sound.

A two-seater motorcycle rushed in and rushed quickly on the avenue.

There are scattered steel buildings on both sides, steel bars as thick as thighs, and dilapidated houses.

Figures were moving around in the house, and those who heard the sounds and saw the lights quickly stuck their heads out.

As the distance got closer, Luo Xiu, who was always paying attention to the information terminal, was suddenly delighted. At this distance, he could contact Uncle Kuyan.

As long as we can get in touch, it will be easy.

"Hey, Uncle Kuyan, did that bandit group attack you?" Luo Xiu had this question because he didn't hear any gunshots.

At the same time, he had another thought in his mind: Was I cheated by that robber again?

Ku Yan's voice came from the information terminal, as if he had just woken up and yawned.

"What? A band of thieves? No, it's quiet outside."

Weird? Why not? Am I really being cheated?

In self-doubt, Luo Xiu couldn't help but look at the surrounding steel ruins shrouded in darkness.

It was quiet, nothing happened.

After Luo Xiu and the other man left, a group of ragged people suddenly appeared from the shabby houses around them.

They crouched behind obstacles, hidden in the jumble of steel ruins.

Everyone had a ferocious expression on their face, and the guns in their hands were all aimed at the back of the departing motorcycle.

It seemed that in the next second, Luo Xiu and the other man would be torn into pieces.

But until Luo Xiu and others left, they still didn't fire a single shot, which shows that they have quite strict constraints.

In the middle of the crowd, someone asked in a puzzled voice , " Chief, why did you let them go?"

Then came a hoarse voice without any emotion, like the sound of a saw scraping against iron sheets, which gave people goose bumps all over their bodies.

"Our men are not in position yet. If we open fire now, we will expose our presence. How can we take them down quietly?"

"Master, you are wise." The person who asked the question quickly flattered him again.

At this moment, another motorcycle came from a distance. The figure on the motorcycle came nearby, abandoned the motorcycle, and dived into the steel ruins.

He was quickly caught by the bandits inside and taken to the leader.

Looking at the oppressive leader in front of him, the robber couldn't help swallowing.

He left the important responsibility of guarding the well water without permission, and he didn't know how the leader in front of him would deal with him.

But when he thought that he was here to deliver intelligence, and that this was meritorious service after serving his sentence, the leader would probably reward him, a smile appeared on his face again.

So he quickly said:

"Chief, did you see the two people who just passed by? They just killed two of us, and we also got the news from them that we were going to attack them."

"They know?"

The leader thought that Luo Xiu didn't know, but the result was the opposite of what he expected. As a result, their raid was ineffective.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" The leader suddenly raised his gun and stabbed him with the rotating bayonet on the muzzle.

The robber was stabbed in the chest, and the wound instantly became as big as a bowl, transparent inside and out, and it was obvious that he was not going to survive.

He fell down trembling, trying to explain , " Our communication box was broken by them."

After saying this, he became silent.

The flattering robber waved his hand and had the body carried away, then asked carefully:

"Chief, it seems they already know our plan, so what should we do now? Should we launch the attack now?"

"Pause." The leader waved his hand slightly. "Now that they know our plan, they will definitely be on guard now."

"By the time tomorrow morning comes, their energy will be exhausted."

"Notify them." The leader quickly came up with a new idea. "Tell them to form a defensive formation after they reach the designated location and get a good night's sleep. We'll kill any of them who come out tomorrow morning."

"Oh, I see." The flattering bandit suddenly realized, "Although they have food, they have no water, so they can't hold out for long. As long as we trap them for a few days, they will surrender without a fight."

"The leader is wise."

There was another round of flattery, and then a burst of laughter came from the steel ruins.

In metal construction.

Compared to before when there were lights on, there is no light source in the building now.

After driving the motorcycle into the courtyard of the building, our guide Kobayashi walked quickly towards the residence of Mayor Lisuo with a flashlight.

Boom boom boom.

As soon as they reached the corner of the fifth floor, the guide Xiao Lin couldn't wait to rush out of Mayor Suo's room.

A harsh sound rang out in the darkness, and a woman's roar suddenly came from the room:

"Why are you knocking so late at night? Can't you let me sleep?"

"Is this the voice of Doctor Molan?" Luo Xiu still had some impression of the doctor whom he had only met once.

I couldn't help wondering , " Did I knock on the wrong door?"

"Yes, it's here." The guide Kobayashi said with certainty.

When Kobayashi turned around and continued knocking, the metal door in front of him suddenly opened.

It was Mayor Lisuo who appeared in a coat.

Luo Xiu opened his eyes slightly and nodded slowly, as if he understood something.

No wonder Mayor Lisuo didn't dare to refute Doctor Molan when she spoke.

I see.

"What's wrong?" Captain Li Suo had blurry eyes and closed the door casually, blocking Luo Xiu's inquiring gaze into the room.

The guide Xiaolin told him everything that happened at the well.

Mayor Lisuo soon turned serious.

"This matter is indeed serious. They do have reason to attack here."

After thinking for a moment, he said , " Xiao Lin, go and tell them to get up quickly, prepare the ammunition, and be ready to defend at any time."

"Yes, Mayor." Kobayashi left quickly.

Then the mayor looked at Luo Xiu and sighed slightly, "Please rest assured, I have already persuaded Molan, she will help you check your companions."

"but ... "

Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant to speak, Luo Xiu, considering the current situation, asked tentatively , " Do you want us to help you?"

"Yes." Mayor Lisuo nodded, "Those bandits kill without blinking an eye. I hope you can help me wipe them out completely."

"Of course." Luo Xiu agreed, "You have already joined our Zhulong Main District, so you are our people. There is nothing wrong with helping you."

Mayor Li Suo patted Luo Xiu's shoulder happily, and then went to organize his own troops.

There was soon movement in the metal building, and many militiamen with guns appeared at the windows. A rough estimate was that there were at least 40 people.

Compared with that gang of thieves, it's not much different.

This made Luo Xiu feel a little relieved.

At least this battle is not one-sided.

Luo Xiu squatted at the window on the fifth floor, ready to provide support at any time.

But after waiting for a while, no robbers came to attack, which made Luo Xiu feel worried.

"Maybe those robbers didn't come here, but went somewhere else for other reasons?"

At this time, the information terminal rang. It was Uncle Kuyan calling.

The information terminal has its own communication band, solar charging and solid quality.

It’s just not very far without the main area communication tower.

This is also the reason why Luo Xiu did not use the information terminal to contact at the beginning, and only contacted after arriving at Lisuo Town.

"Luo Xiu, you'd better not participate in this battle. My fate has already been determined. If I die here, it will be considered a martyrdom."

"But you are different. You are still young and have a lot of good times ahead of you. Once you see the opportunity, leave here as soon as possible."

Luo Xiu knew that Uncle Ku Yan was doing this for his own good, but he didn't want to leave just like that.

"I know. I'll find the right time."

However, Luo Xiu didn't want to argue with him, so he agreed without thinking. As for whether he could do it or not, it was up to him.

If possible, he certainly hopes to take Uncle Kuyan with him.

After getting Luo Xiu's promise, Ku Yan hung up the phone with a look of relief, leaving Luo Xiu quietly in the darkness.

At the same time, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he enjoyed Uncle Kuyan's care.

This was something he could hardly feel in the 20 years of his life.

The robbers had not arrived yet, which made Luo Xiu lose his patience. Below, there was not even a shadow on the dark road.

Luo Xiu couldn't help but focus his attention on the golden finger that appeared on his body.

Although he didn't know what it was, according to the name in past novels, Luo Xiu also called it a system.

"Turn on the system."

A holographic projection image appeared in front of him. It was about 12 inches in size. It not only had a text attribute list, but also a full-body image of Luo Xiu.

The ceramic armor was covered with cracks, which were the result of injuries sustained in battle.

Fortunately, Luo Xiu's body was not harmed.

"It looks like this armor won't last much longer."

Luo Xiu sighed slightly. Now repairing armor requires declaration and money. This is the new reform system after the war.

It is said that everything is for economic prosperity.

After scanning it, Luo Xiu hoped to find something that would be more helpful to him.

The shooting crosshairs make his shots more dangerous, especially in static shooting mode, which is even more powerful.

But when facing multiple people, it is obviously not very effective.

"What else?"

Suddenly, Luo Xiu opened his eyes slightly, and the number 10 appeared on the merit points column.

"Huh? What's going on? Killing a robber can earn you merit points? That's impossible. This isn't within the mission scope."

"Is there something wrong with the system in the information terminal?"

It has a simplified resolution capability among the information collected by the information terminal.

Only soldiers who perform within the specified scope and within the specified tasks can obtain merit points.

Generally speaking, killing wild beasts will definitely earn you merit points, after all, they are the common enemy of mankind.

However, when shooting identical humans, one needs to identify them and apply for permission in advance to prevent them from being exploited by people with ulterior motives and killing innocent people.

But the current situation made Luo Xiu a little dumbfounded. He did not apply for it, and this mission was not among the tasks he was supposed to perform.

However, merit points appeared in his system, which seemed to be an overstepping of authority.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiu quickly opened his information terminal and stared at the numbers on the information bar.

"How could this happen?" Luo Xiu murmured.

10 merit points are also displayed on it.

A trace of cold sweat broke out on his back. The more the number, the better.

Every once in a while, the Zhulong District would review how each soldier obtained their merit points.

It would be easy if it was just killing wild beasts, but if it was humans, it would be complicated.

Who were the people killed during the mission? How many were killed?

All of this must be recorded one by one. If the laws of the Zhulong District are violated, you will be brought to court.

Generally speaking, this mission would not be recorded because it exceeds the scope of the mission.

But it just happened, and unreasonable merit points will definitely attract scrutiny from the Zhulong District.

A breeze blew in the night, and Luo Xiu felt a little cold, instantly recovering from his worry.

"I really don't know whether you are helping me or harming me."

Open the information record, it says:

[Kill a bandit and gain 4 merit points]

[Suppress a bandit and gain 1 merit point]

There are four messages in total, two of which are repeated.

“It’s really a faithful record.”

Luo Xiu gave a bitter smile. If this were to be discovered, his future would definitely be affected.

"This system can record actions that are not in the mission area, and can also earn merit. I really don't know whether to say you are amazing or a bit of a scam."

However, since he has already obtained such a system and cannot unbind it, Luo Xiu can only accept it calmly.

Time passed little by little, the darkness gradually dissipated, and the sunshine in the distance finally arrived.

A beam of golden light fell on Luo Xiu's eyelids, waking him up suddenly.

"I am asleep?"

He was slightly stunned, wondering when he fell asleep, but he had no recollection of it.

Then he stretched his head and glanced outside, still no movement.

"Huh? Are those robbers really not coming?"

Luo Xiu stood up and stretched. He had been squatting by the window all night and his legs were a little numb.

Get up quickly and move around.

At this time, Mayor Li Suo's door opened and neatly dressed Doctor Mo Lan walked out.

When she saw Luo Xiu, she raised her right hand and said calmly , " Good morning."
