Apocalypse: I Can Level Up Everything

Chapter 39: Princess Saving The Hero

Wu Peng was extremely surprised. “My good sister,” he said, “you’ve helped me a great deal.”

Under Elsa’s instructions, Wu Peng and Ye Wei started to escape.

They constantly turned left and right, over mountains and ravines, before finally shaking off the people chasing after them.

Finally, they arrived at a place near Wu Peng’s shelter.

After their manic sprint, Wu Peng and Ye Wei were completely exhausted, and their legs had even started to turn numb.

Wu Peng felt more at ease when he saw his home right up ahead.

“Alright, we should be safe now. My shelter is up ahead. Do you want to come inside?”

Ye Wei nodded. She was so tired that she couldn’t speak.

They had just walked ten meters when they suddenly heard gunshots coming from behind them.

Wu Peng pulled Ye Wei onto the ground.

They turned back to look behind them and saw two members from Viper.

“They managed to follow us here?”

He took out his rifle and was about to retaliate when the enemy immediately fired at them.

Left without a choice, Wu Peng could only hug his head and plaster his face as close to the ground as possible.

The gunshots were getting closer and closer. At the critical moment, Wu Peng heard a wave of gunshots from behind him.

The sound of the gunshots was very familiar. It seemed to come from a Glock 17.

He secretly turned to look behind him and saw Elsa, who was shooting a little distance away.

“Brother Peng! I’ll cover you, run quickly!” Elsa anxiously shouted at him.

Wu Peng quickly pulled Ye Wei up and tried to lay low as he ran toward Elsa.

When the two members from Viper saw Wu Peng’s reinforcements, they decided to give up the chase, as they were also exhausted.

Elsa heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the enemy leave, and she helped Wu Peng up from the ground to save him the effort.

“Oh my, they always say that the hero should be the one saving the princess. It looks like the roles are reversed today.” Now that he was free of danger, Wu Peng started speaking flippantly out of habit.

Elsa smiled as she helped him wipe off the mud on his face.

“Oh yes, let me introduce you guys. This is Ye Wei, the captain of the law enforcers.”

Only now did Elsa look at Ye Wei, who was standing off to the side. She was tall and slender and had an exceptional demeanor, and even though her face was also filthy, the dirt couldn’t hide her exquisite features.

“Nice to meet you,” she said emotionlessly before turning her gaze back to Wu Peng.

Ye Wei sensed that the lady in front of her had a strong opinion of her even though this was the first time they’d met.

Sensing tension between the two women, Wu Peng quickly changed the topic. “Is there anything to eat? Ye Wei and I have been fleeing for our lives. We’re hungry and tired.”

“I’ve prepared all your favorite dishes for dinner, but I only prepared enough for the two of us.”

Elsa glanced past Ye Wei after saying her piece.

Ye Wei knitted her brows. She could feel the other party’s open hostility.

However, Ye Wei was a proud woman, and she didn’t care to argue with a little girl.

“I’ll return to the base first,” Ye Wei said. “There’s probably a lot of things I need to tend to there.”

She turned around and left, not caring whether Wu Peng stopped her or not.

Wu Peng could only flash a bitter smile as he watched Ye Wei’s receding figure.

“Why did you treat her so poorly? She did nothing to offend you.”

“Hmph! I saw everything using the Bird. You wouldn’t have been in danger if it hadn’t been for her. She must have had something to do with your injury the other day.”

Wu Peng knew that Elsa was concerned about him and could only return to his shelter to rest.

After dinner, Wu Peng lay down in bed and immediately fell asleep.

It was a new day. Wu Peng accessed the point interface and noticed that the system had awarded him with 4000 points.

The rewards for helping law enforcers were generous.

After breakfast, Wu Peng remembered that he hadn’t searched Viper’s gathering point, which he’d discovered yesterday.

Elsa had been unfriendly toward Ye Wei yesterday night, and he decided to salvage the situation by telling Ye Wei about the gathering point.

He sent Ye Wei a message containing the address of Viper’s gathering point.

Unexpectedly, he received a call from Ye Wei in the afternoon. He got harshly lectured by her.

She said that she had led a team of law enforcers to search the address Wu Peng had given her, only to find a destroyed underground shelter.

Wu Peng had wasted half of Ye Wei’s day, not to mention the fact that Elsa had also snubbed her last night. She blamed all of that on Wu Peng.

Wu Peng felt indignant, but Ye Wei hung up the call, not wanting to hear his explanation.

He hadn’t managed to be the good guy and had gotten lectured instead. All he could do was accept it.

He guessed that Viper had sent people to destroy the shelters, along with their dead members, after their mission had failed yesterday.

These cautionary tactics did fit Viper.

Ye Wei was probably in a bad mood after her consecutive failures, so Wu Peng didn’t dare to head over to Ye Wei’s office for the time being.

Wu Peng didn’t want to go over and get scolded again.

He should investigate Viper alone.

The most important thing at the moment was to spend all of the points he’d amassed.

Viper’s operations were getting more and more brazen. To think that they would send so many people in a frontal assault. ^^had sent?

If not for the drones that the headquarters had sent over as reinforcement, they wouldn’t have been able to defend against Viper’s attacks yesterday night.

Not to mention the fact that Viper’s leader, who had just appeared, made Wu Peng feel rather scared. He was afraid of his equipment and leadership ability.

He was a troublesome person to deal with.

Viper’s weapons were getting more advanced, and their firepower was getting stronger.

So Wu Peng decided to upgrade his equipment.

Even though the HK416 was extremely useful now that it was modified, it couldn’t do any damage to vehicles that had slightly thicker armor.

He needed to produce a gun that could penetrate armor.

He accessed the weapon production interface and searched around until he found sniper rifles that could pierce through armor, but these rifles were too large and heavy.

He would quickly grow tired before he even encountered any enemies if he had to carry one of these rifles and do battle outdoors.

Wu Peng could only settle for second-best and search for a more convenient weapon with stronger firepower than an average rifle to carry around.

He finally set his sights on a revolver.

The [Thunder.50 Revolver] used massive 0.5 caliber bullets. It was the most powerful handgun in the world.

Wu Peng had long heard of this legendary pistol and had wanted to obtain a gun just like it when it had first been revealed to the world.

Unfortunately, the company that produced the gun had suddenly disappeared.

Wu Peng couldn’t help but remember the old days when he’d first seen this pistol in the Mechanical System.

However, producing this gun required 500 points! Furthermore, every bullet cost 20 points.

He pressed on the option to produce the weapon. A beam of white light flashed, and a technologically advanced handgun appeared on the station.

He picked up the gun and toyed with it, guessing that it weighed about three kilograms.

Other than the wooden handle, the entire gun was made out of a silver, metallic material.

The gun also had to be loaded in a unique way. He had to load bullets one by one through the breech, as if the gun were a shotgun.

Wu Peng excitedly grabbed five bullets and headed out of the shelter.

He loaded a bullet into the pistol, aimed at a piece of rock in the far distance, and pulled the trigger.

A loud gunshot rang out. Wu Peng felt a strong recoil and nearly lost his grip on the pistol.

“What a gun! That recoil is horrifying.”

He ran over to the rock and examined the results, finding a large hole in the piece of granite.

The power of the pistol was terrifying. It was no wonder that it was hailed as the most powerful handgun in the world.
