Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

The man called Brother Qi's eyes were as big as copper bells, full of disbelief, and his consciousness didn't even have time to dissipate.

He captured the opponent's position accurately.

But I didn't expect this result.

With a loud bang, the heavy mace and the corpse fell to the ground together, and the strong wind caused by it made the oil lamp flicker.

The remaining gang members then saw that there was a bloody hole on the man's forehead, but his entire back of the head had exploded and was empty.

Lu Meng's fingers are not that long.

He relied entirely on his undying strength to destroy the hardest part of the opponent's bones.

People were dumbfounded.

"Qi, Qi...Brother Qi!" someone cried out in horror.

But Glass had already moved.

From the very beginning, she did not leave, but climbed down the pipe and climbed along the outer wall to the back of the group, quietly and silently.

The two gang members who were previously responsible for covering their retreat broke out in cold sweats when they heard the sudden cold response from behind them.

The hatred in that tone.

Like substance.

With two "puff" sounds, before they could react, a thin blade pierced through each of their chests at the same time, accurately piercing their hearts.

Bo's figure did not stop. She stepped on the wall of a nearby pipe. The moss on the wall was sticky and slippery, but the anti-slavery activist used the force to leap directly into the darkness in front of her.

The lights flickered.

Lu Meng picked up the oil lamp beside the shack.

The dim light illuminated his figure, casting a long shadow on the ground of the pipeline, blending with the dark back.

The brim of the hat blocked the condensation that was sliding down his head, and also just covered his face.

Needless to say.

Apart from the gang members in the first row who were frightened, there were also people who didn't know what was going on and rushed forward with brute force.

next moment.

They all fell to the ground.

Then, all the bodies were divided into three parts: cut in half at the top and bottom, and the heads rolled straight down.

Lu Meng retracted his sword but did not sheath it.

With just this one move, he accurately cut the throats of these people in an instant. The gang members could not even make a roar or scream, and died in silence.

"Save time, guys," he said.

"Grandpa, it's so dark...what happened?" Li Yin's small body was trembling. It was pitch black in front of her eyes and she could not see anything.

Someone covered her eyes.

Chad sighed.

He never expected that one day, someone like him would actually have the opportunity to be careful.

The drifter was also trembling slightly. At the moment when Lu Meng made his move, Chad held Li Yin in one hand and pulled his collar with the other hand, leading them both away from the battlefield and protecting them behind him.

The old man didn't expect that the young stowaway he had just taken care of was so agile and had such strong hands.

But he really didn't expect that.

It’s still the scene before my eyes.

The gang members rushed forward or fled in panic, but the moment they moved, there would be a flash of knife cutting their trachea and arteries.

Blood spurted out, mixed with the sound of hoarse gasps and groans.

Li Yin was still young, and couldn't hear anything just from the sounds... But when the old man heard it, even if he hadn't seen the scene with his own eyes, he could understand that it was a scene like hell.

Yet, the person who was reaping lives was so carefree, as if he was strolling in a garden.

Lu Meng still pulled out that ordinary standard military knife. Such weapons were used by countless soldiers and bandits, and even if the wound was examined afterwards, the source could not be traced.

But in an instant.

This newly produced weapon, upon the first bite of blood, stained dozens of people!
Even Su Cheng, who had just retreated from the front line, had to go through several life-and-death battles before achieving such an achievement.

The old man had never seen such a murder scene.

As a drifter living in the lagoon, he once hid in the dark and witnessed the fighting in several major communities in the downtown. At that time, the sound of fighting was deafening, and the blood from the broken limbs and corpses dyed the lake water below light red. Finally, it was not until the technology hunters took action that the disputes were suppressed and the current forces were divided.

But it is on such a battlefield.

The old man had never seen anyone die like this.

Because, the young man who suddenly appeared before him was more like dancing than slashing! It was not the kind of decadent music that the big men liked, but the sacrificial war song that the returning hunters sang to restore the battle in the most barbaric era.

Full of blood and violence.

But it is pleasing to the eye.

After witnessing the death of their companions, some of them finally lost their minds in fear, knelt down and begged for mercy from the god-like swordsman, weeping.

They didn't understand what was happening.

But fear had already cut off their will.

The sword flashed.

Lu Meng walked past the kneeling people without stopping. Then their bodies broke into three parts. Some rolled through the holes into the lake below and were buried in the waves, but more limbs still maintained their previous shapes.

It seems like praying to something.

Chad understood.

What this person just said was not a metaphor or description... he was just clearing up, describing the facts objectively.

Clear out the garbage hiding in the dark.

As a technology hunter, Chad had heard of the existence of the downtown area in the past, but never knew the specific ecology here.

Or maybe, he could imagine it.

But I know I am powerless to change.

It's just like my hometown, Ai Mine Town.

Although Chad was friends with Ji Hailukin and others, it was more of a personal relationship. He was devoted to their actions but did not understand them.

But at this moment, a feeling of relief spontaneously arose in his heart!

The pipes hummed.

The wind in the lower city was swirling, the iron walls were shaking, and the dark and narrow space was empty.

Only the corpse lying on the ground was left.

The wind blows freely and unhindered.

With a crisp click, half of the blade fell to the ground, and Lu Meng looked at the empty handle in his hand.

After all, it was just an ordinary weapon of low quality, not even of high grade. Even though he could now kill people by cutting through the gaps as easily as a butcher cutting up an ox, he had used it too many times and the blade could not withstand Lu Meng's own strength and broke into pieces.

He threw it away and turned around to look. He saw a gang member holding an iron rod in both hands, trembling.

This is the disadvantage of being alone. Even if he can repel thousands of troops, any normal organization in the world will not wait for you to slaughter them.

There are always some that slip through the net.

No matter how fast you can draw your sword, chasing dozens or even hundreds of people at a time is the limit.

The remaining gang member has an immature face and looks like a half-grown child. It is estimated that he has only joined the gang for a short time and is not even on the front line of the charge.

However, he was the most active one when they were searching through the boxes and drawers for the remaining wealth of the Li family's grandfather and grandson.

"No, don't come over..."

The gang members retreated tremblingly, and Lu Meng just looked at him without moving.

"Let me go, and leave the lagoon. I can pretend that I didn't see anything that happened today..."

Lu Meng's indifference ignited a glimmer of hope in his heart: "If Brother Bao knew about this, he would definitely not let you go, so, so it's not too late to leave now..."

The gang members were terrified: this young man, like a devil, not only killed the leader of the team instantly, but also swept away the big brothers and sisters who they had to serve carefully on a daily basis, and completely crushed his will.

However, in his memory, there was still one last glimmer of hope: that was the man he had kneeled on the ground when he joined the gang and had to secretly raise his eyes to see. He was the leader of his gang, Leopard, the powerful man who commanded one-fifth of the communities in the entire downtown area. Just a glimpse of his power had kept this gang member awake all night.

The other party was slow to act.

Perhaps they were still afraid of this, afraid of possible retaliation... At this moment, the gang members felt fortunate that they had joined the right force and could at least save their lives.

But the next moment, he tripped.

The gang member stepped on a blood-stained cloth bag and stumbled to the ground. At the same time, the bag loosened its mouth, revealing a blurred face.

The lifeless pupils reflected the boy's terrified expression - he recognized the money tattoo that the other party used to cover his scar.

Isn't that exactly...

"Leopard……"

"laugh."

A fine blade pierced his throat, and Bo emerged from the shadows: "He felt no regret until the last moment."

"Regret is a luxury," Lu Meng said, "Not everyone has the right to experience it... But you, do you need to take a bath?"

Unlike Lu Meng, this anti-slavery fighter's body was covered in blood. Although her strength could crush ordinary gang members, she could not do it as easily as the other party.

This is a difference in realm.

However, Bo walked on the edge, stabbing the short blades into the chests and throats of those who tried to escape, leaving no one behind.

"I'm used to it." The woman's chest rose and fell slightly. She wiped the blood from her face and smiled tiredly: "Judging from his reaction, you found the right person."

She pointed to the bag.

That was exactly what Lu Meng brought. Upon closer inspection, one of the people was not completely dead yet. It was obvious that he was left alive on purpose, but his breath was already very weak.

If the blood in the cloth bag could not be concealed, with Lu Meng's stealth ability, he would never have been discovered by the so-called Brother Qi - of course, he had never thought of hiding.

Chad on the side was still holding Li Yin and covering her eyes. The whole massacre process was almost silent except for the last conversation. But the little girl seemed to understand something and she quieted down and became obedient to the point of silence.

Wind in the duct.

Blow away the blood.

It was as if thunder rolled through the old man's heart.

From the reactions of the gang members before they died, he probably guessed the truth.

But I dare not confirm it at all.

There are quite a few of these low-level drifters, with at least tens of thousands in one settlement... but they dare not resist the local gangs who come to collect taxes or bully them at will, not just because they are afraid of the small leaders.

That's because, above them, there are higher people suppressing them.

The power division in the Lower City is now clear. Although there are occasional frictions among the five major communities, their interests are the same. The people in charge of them can even talk to the high-level officials in the depression lagoon, and none of them is lower than the legion level.

But just now.

The old man saw with his own eyes that the community he lived in...the top boss of all of them, was directly removed?
Calculated by time.

They had just arrived in Lake Town for less than half a day, and the actual time of the incident might have been even earlier.

You have to seriously injure the enemy leader and bring him here amidst the heavy guards, and then escape safely.

And how big of a storm would that cause in the Lower Town… no, in the entire Depression Lagoon?

Are you... also a stowaway?
Bo and Chad nodded to each other for confirmation.

Of all of them, this task could indeed only be entrusted to the Red King.

After a short silence, the old man seemed to have made up his mind, and even his eyes became firm:
"follow me--"

……

……

Just as the noble caravan led by Shi Cha was being interrogated by mechanic Wolff, and an unknown cleanup was taking place somewhere in the lower city, a figure suddenly emerged from the turbulent lake.

Looking at the slender and graceful profile, it is a female.

"Huh." She took off her special diving mask, spit out a mouthful of lake water, frowned and said in astonishment: "Why do I smell a bloody smell?"

Of course, it might be an illusion, but when she sneaked into a caravan and witnessed those strange and polluted poison pools, she would never be willing to drink the water from the lagoon in the depression.

"That leader's figure looks familiar. I've seen him in Black Scratches..." The woman swam in the storm, trying to find a convenient location to climb onto the steel platform, while recalling her experiences during the day. "These merchants were too slow, and the rain was coming too fast. I couldn't catch up with them."

Those who followed the noble caravan and tried to swim across were basically washed away by the storm and the high tide.

If you are lucky, you may be able to return the same way.

In this horrible weather that could overturn even iron covered boats, they did not have enough pack animals to swim across. If the heavy rain did not stop, people with weaker strength would definitely not be able to reach the depression lagoon again.

"An isolated island." The woman sighed, a town was shaped like an isolated island.

The key point is that her companions were among those blocked.

They are fully equipped and their safety is not a problem, but they certainly cannot support themselves during this period.

She was just finding joy in suffering.

It seems that this trip is different from what I expected, and I am forced to act with caution.

On the platform, a team of tech hunters wearing raincoats and holding lanterns patrolled along the edge.

A hunter at the end of the team suddenly became alert: "Who is that..."

But just as the words came to his lips, before he could get through the rain and storm, he was hit hard on the back of his head, his vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

His companions also fell down.

The dark figure took the opportunity to flip over, dragging their bodies and quickly hiding in the corner.

The woman clapped her hands and looked at the two of them.

"Unfortunately, I am not qualified to attack you before I find out the truth, and I cannot let anyone find out." She thought for a moment in distress, then her eyes lit up and were full of intelligence, "I remember... you seem to have a good place here!"
