Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 32 Embers
There were more blond-haired boys than Jiatu and the others, but they were caught off guard and knocked down one by one.

Especially Hena, who looks like a thin and small girl is very inconspicuous, but she is better than Wei Wei, a little fat guy, and she can hit the carotid sinus, abdominal solar plexus, chin... She will hit first wherever the stun rate is high.

Soon, of the dozen or so subordinates around the blond boy, only four or five were left standing.

On Jiatu's side, except Zhiti and Heda, there were eight more people, two of them dealt with one, grabbed the other and beat him violently, until the blond boy screamed and had no power to fight back.

"Wearing a suit to scare the brain! Quickly use the suit to scare the brain!"

The blond-haired boy finally remembered that he still had some brains on his side, but Hua Lun didn't give him this chance at all, and knocked the blond-haired boy into the door frame with one punch.

I don't know if it's the experience of fighting in groups, but Hua Lun's boxing skills are obviously the strongest among all the people present. After he joined the battle group, the whole victory became no longer suspenseful.

However, the movement on the side of the box finally alarmed the waiters and guards outside——

"Here! Stop them!"

Jiatu saw the red-clothed youth he had seen before, leading a group of red-clothed and black-sashed men to rush forward.

"Scatter and escape!"

Jiatu saw Hualun yelling at the door, and then took Zhiti and fled out first.

"Hold tight!"

Jiatu saw Hena glanced at him, then hugged Heda, and jumped from the top of the box.

Be careful to fall!
Jiatu hurriedly rushed to the viewing window to take a look, only to see the girl landed on some building platforms below the box, flexibly jumping to the ground several times, and the impact of the fall was relieved.

"...Is it really a genius to be able to jump like this without using the Brain Outfit..."

Jiatu shook his head, he was no longer surprised by the girl's physical ability, he himself put on the outer suit and jumped down in a similar manner.

With Heiyin's assistance, Jiatu managed to land on the ground even though it was a bit more difficult to unload the weight on one foot.

He saw Hannah waiting for him by the central staircase, as if he had expected him to do so.

"Go this way, I'll open the way!"

Hena nodded to Jiatu, then continued to rush forward with Heda in her arms.

There are no cameras inside the box, as long as they are not caught by the guards, they will be fine.

Jiatu and Hena, who were driving the terrified exterior, ran all the way, and returned to the tenth floor in only one-third of the time it took to come here.

"Tell me, will Zhiti and the others be caught?"

It's rare that the girl knows how to care about other people.

"If you don't want to be caught, just don't do it at the beginning."

Seeing the girl's reaction, Jiatu couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and turned off the horror jacket.

However, Hena just shook her head and replied:

"There are so many of them that they can't take that risk."

Jiatu raised his eyebrows slightly, realizing that the girl was right.

The opponent obviously wanted to set up a trap for Hua Lun and the others, and deliberately assembled a battle. In fact, they had already made preparations for the siege.

If Wei Wei and Hena hadn't rushed forward without doing anything, blocked the other teenagers at the door, and took advantage of the chaos to knock them down one by one, Jiatu and the others would be lying on the ground at this time.

"Would you rather teach me to betray the world than to teach the world to defeat me..."

Hearing Hena's explanation, Jiatu couldn't help shaking his head and figured out the logic of the girl's character.

Not long after fleeing back to the tenth floor, Hua Lun brought Wei Wei over.

He first apologized to Hena and the others for today's situation, and then confirmed that the next three people were all fine.

"Zhiti, the others and others were not caught. Noah suffered a big loss today, and the selection for the team the day after tomorrow will definitely get him back. We must be prepared."

Hua Lun informed Jiatu and the others about the situation of the others and the possible consequences, and then hurried away with Wei Wei.

Only Jiatu and Hena were left, looking at each other beside the tent.

"...Haven't you considered that you can't be a 'explorer'?"

Jiatu thought for a while, and broke the silence first.

Although he had heard many stories about explorers before, he had never been so clearly aware of the dangers of this profession as he is today.

However, the girl answered the question somewhat irrelevantly and said:
"Did you see the waiter in the box today?"

"That young man in red, right?"

Jiatu nodded, deeply impressed by the young man hiding his knife in his smile.

Although the blond-haired boy provoked the matter this time, if you want to put the dog food in the dining car, you must do it in front of the red-clothed youth.

Coupled with the timely move to find the guards to rescue Noah and the others, it can basically be judged that he and the blond boy are in the same group.

Jiatu told Hena what he was thinking, and the girl nodded affirmatively and said:
"Noah is the heir of the central layer, and it is normal to be able to instruct the waiters at the central layer."

But she changed the subject:
"But I still want Heda and you to be able to enter the central layer."

The girl said indifferently: "With the income of the central level, Heda alone is enough to support you and your mother."

"...Can't you think about the recording layer and the R&D layer..."

Jia Tu couldn't help but said.

"Even if it's the recording layer and the research and development layer, if I don't become a explorer, I still can't afford the right to live there."

The girl said to herself:
"And working on the R&D level requires the ability to repair equipment. Except for a few recyclers, most of them are low-level workers like mothers. Not to mention tiring work, they are prone to illness, and their income is not enough to support you and your mother."

"Only when you enter the middle-level area, you can easily support four or five people with the income of 'one' resident. At that time, you and your mother's life will be guaranteed, and the life of Heda and his future wife will also be guaranteed."

"But what about you? Haven't you thought about your own affairs?"

Jia Tu couldn't help asking back.

"...someone has to give and sacrifice."

However, the girl just looked at him silently and said:
"Since I have the ability and the qualifications, I should take this responsibility."

The girl's answer made Cato silent.

Indeed, as Hena said, her physical ability and physical quality are all superior to those of her peers in the lower districts.

If she didn't even take on the responsibility of a explorer, then no one in the lower districts would take on such a dangerous job.

As part of the refuge, there is always someone who has to step up and do the most dangerous work, and if everyone thinks of themselves, if everyone wants to be "smart," then the refuge as a whole dies.

But the refuge has continued from the catastrophe to the present, and it has lasted for more than 200 years, because it has always had a group of "stupid", "fools", and "idealists" paying their lives for the refuge.

"Although I lived in pain in the shelter...but am I still 'alive' after all..."

Jiato recalled the words above the refuge——

"Survival is a necessary prerequisite to existence, not a consequence..."

"If my 'struggle' can give the people in the shelter a little more hope..."

"Then I don't mind dragging them out of despair with my abilities!"
