Chapter 207 Prelude (2)
Chapter 207 Prelude (2)
In the center of the construction camp, two women led Alan to boil water. Even though the conditions after the disaster became difficult, the men wanted to drink coffee while working.
After the kettle was put on the fire, the women went to guard the perimeter of the camp. Alan looked at the hot water boredly while looking around to observe the surrounding terrain.
It is not safe here. No one knows what is hidden in the grove. As the captain of the construction team, Tobin did not send anyone to simply take a walk in the woods.
Alan sighed. As a girl, she had almost no hobbies to pass the time. She once asked Zhang Qiang if smoking could help relieve boredom, and Zhang Qiang gave her an affirmative answer.
Then Alan took a puff of the [Old Immortal Cigar] and passed out from nicotine poisoning.
Being underage and without the [Mission Constitution], Alan simply couldn't withstand the tremendous power of [Immortal Cigar].
Time passed quickly, and the construction team members were sweating as they collected building materials and placed metal frames on the open back of a pickup truck.
Dudududu——!
The kettle made a noise, and Alan immediately took it off the fire. The prolonged noise might attract zombies.
"Coffee will be available soon, guys! Come on!"
When Tobin saw that the hot water was ready, he immediately spoke up to encourage the people who were working with him.
"I want ice! Tobin, tell me, we must bring ice today!"
"Hahahahahaha!"
There was a burst of laughter all around.
The woman who was on guard at the edge of the woods also laughed. She turned her back to the woods and looked at this group of adorably silly men.
"Uuuuuuu——!"
At this moment, a pair of dirty big hands stretched out from the woods, suddenly covered the woman's mouth, and dragged her into the leafy bushes.
The members of the construction team were still focusing on the center of the camp, but Alan saw this horrifying scene.
Zombies? No, this attack method is more like that of humans?!
"Who! Come out of the woods!!"
Alan immediately drew his revolver and pointed it at the woods.
Alan's reaction made everyone turn their heads in shock, and they immediately found that the guard on guard had disappeared.
"Shit! Get the gun, get the gun!"
The men drew their pistols from their waists and pointed them at the woods, but they did not know what the danger was.
Alan ignored the trembling adults around her and approached the woods with her gun raised. Her keen hearing enabled her to detect faint movements. Several objects were moving!
"Ha! You found me."
As Alan pointed his gun at the bushes where the noise came from, a man's voice also sounded from the branches.
rustling...
The bushes squirmed, and four dirty men walked out of the woods. One of them was holding the woman who had just disappeared in his arms.
The semi-automatic rifle in the female sentry's hand had been taken by an attacker, who pointed the gun at the men in the center of the camp, not taking Alan seriously at all.
"who are you?"
Alan noticed that these people all had bloody "W"-shaped scars on their foreheads. They must belong to the same gang and have strange rules.
"We? We are here to save you! Cutie, hahahahaha."
The attacker who held the woman hostage let out obscene laughter. He looked at the men in the camp and his voice gradually became colder:
"Put down your guns! Or her neck will be cut!"
The attacker held a dagger in his hand, pressing it near the woman's neck, his eyes full of threats.
This was the first time that the people of the Alexandria community had been attacked by outsiders. The people on the construction team had beads of sweat on their foreheads and nervously asked Tobin, the backbone, what they should do.
"Tobin..."
"Tobin?"
Tobin was holding a fully automatic AKM rifle, his hand holding the gun was shaking wildly, his brain had crashed, what should he do in the current situation?
There were only four attackers, two of them were holding pistols, one was holding a stolen semi-automatic rifle, and the attacker who held the woman hostage only had a dagger.
Faced with a dozen people from the construction team, the attackers were already feeling intimidated. They originally just wanted to steal a rifle and take the woman away for some fun, but they didn't expect to be discovered by Alan.
They were worried that Alexander's men would chase them with guns, so they had no choice but to step forward and threaten with hostages.
When two groups of people confront each other, the bravest one wins. When two groups of people confront each other, they not only compete in weapons and numbers, but also in courage. What's the point of having more people but not being able to shoot?
"They are really cowards... maybe we can do something big."
The attacker who held the woman hostage noticed the fear of Tobin and others. He whispered to his accomplices, completely ignoring the little girl pointing a gun at them a few meters away.
The attackers exchanged a few words in a low voice, which was all heard by Alan. She remained calm and waited for Tobin's decision.
Alan is closest to the enemies, so if a gunfight breaks out, she will be in the greatest danger. Unless it is a critical moment, Alan doesn't want to shoot.
"Listen! We just want the guns in your hands! Take off the safety of the guns! Throw them on the ground and kick them over to us!! There's no need for us to hurt each other, right?!"
The hostage-taker received support from his accomplices and threatened in an increasingly arrogant tone.
Tobin, who was at the front of the team, heard the other party propose a "peaceful solution" and his brain seemed to come back to life. He shouted:
"Can you guarantee it?!"
"We promise, man! We just want guns! We don't want to kill anyone!!" one of the attackers shouted with a weird smile on his face.
"call……"
Tobin let out a long breath, and then shouted to the people around him: "Put down your guns..."
"What?! Tobin!"
"Give them the guns and let them go! This is the only way we can get France back safely!!"
Tobin shouted angrily to the people around him.
"This…this is so stupid!"
People looked reluctant, but eventually lowered their guns and threw them to the ground one by one.
In the bushes, the four attackers saw that their threat had been successful. The one who came up with the idea laughed in shock:
"Oh my god, look at them... I told you they were scared! Hahahaha!!"
"hiss--!"
A gust of cold wind seemed to blow by suddenly, and the four attackers all shivered. How could they feel like this on a hot summer day?
Following the men of the construction team, Alan bent down and pretended to put down her gun. Now she raised her head and stared at the attackers, her eyes reflecting the scarlet sun.
"Wrong answer!"
Bang bang bang bang! ! ! !
Alan suddenly straightened up, holding the revolver in his hand at his waist, and his left hand slapped the hammer of the revolver as fast as thunder and lightning. At the same time, his right hand cooperated perfectly and pulled the trigger one after another.
In an instant, four bullets flew out into the air, and a bloody hole appeared between the eyebrows of the four attackers almost at the same time!
The attacker who held France hostage had a frozen expression, but still had the smile he had when he was alive.
“Ahhhh!! Fuck fuck!!”
Francie broke free from the corpse's arms and ran towards Alan, who was closest to her. A corner of her ear was broken by a bullet and the wound was bleeding.
Having just escaped from the brink of death, the extremely terrified France hugged Alan tightly.
"Uh... sorry... it was a little off and hurt your ear."
"Wow wow wow...thank you sweetheart..."
The men present saw France hugging Alan and crying. They didn't react for a moment. What on earth was going on...
