This was the first time Fangzheng had seen a member of the legion.
He had to admit that compared to the bandits and robbers on the wasteland, the people in the legion were obviously more distinctive.
They were not wearing tattered "armour" like the other bandits. On the contrary, although these people's clothes were tattered, they all adopted the style of Roman soldiers. They did look a bit like a regular army. Of course, the incongruity of a group of guys dressed like Roman soldiers firing their guns was too great.
The gate of the town had already been closed, and the two sides began to confront each other. The sheriff shouted for the others to pick up their guns and fight. The firepower of the legion was obviously fiercer. Fangzheng carefully observed for a while and realized that this organization called the Legion was quite capable. They were different from ordinary bandits, who were either stupid or rash in their actions. These people knew how to cooperate with each other, and their equipment was more uniform than ordinary bandits, who used whatever they got.
It was also because of this that the town clearly couldn't hold out for long. Their current resistance was more like a last-ditch struggle. In fact, Fangzheng believed that when the town's gate was breached, it would be the end of the settlement.
But … he hadn't paid the rent yet.
"It's your turn. Go bite them. Leave a few alive."
Fangzheng smacked the Death Claw's head and curled his lips at the group of soldiers outside. The latter roared angrily and suddenly leaped over the towering wall, charging into the army soldiers surrounding the town.
The legion soldiers obviously did not expect to encounter a powerful Death Claw in a small settlement. When the huge black figure jumped over the wall and rushed towards them, many soldiers did not even have time to react before they were torn to pieces by the sharp claws of the Death Claw.
A powerful Death Claw was invincible.
Energy weapons might be able to cause some damage to it, but the weapons used by the legion soldiers were almost all the simplest standard firearms and rifles. The advantage of these weapons was that they could be mass-produced, recycled, and repaired quickly, but their disadvantage was naturally obvious. They obviously did not have enough firepower.
Of course, it was still enough to deal with humans. After all, humans were not hard enough to resist bullets. A shot to the head would basically kill them.
But against this Death Claw whose shell was as sturdy as a Heavy Tank, it was beyond his power. The bullets that could penetrate the skull were nothing compared to the Death Claw's thick carapace. Although the soldiers used grenades and other explosives, they were still unable to stop the Death Shadow from attacking and killing them.
In just a few short minutes, the Death Claw turned into a hurricane and swept across the entire army's camp. Standing on the wall and looking at the Death Claw, the town sheriff couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He was glad that he made a wise decision last night. Otherwise, the town wouldn't even be able to see the sun this morning.
"We should go."
Fangzheng's voice sounded in his ear, giving the sheriff a fright. However, he quickly raised his hand and gestured for his subordinates to open the door. At the same time, he thanked the man in front of him in a low voice.
"Thank you for your help, sir. I really don't know how to thank you enough …"
"You're welcome. Just treat it as paying the rent."
Fangzheng waved his hand, then left the town with Kite. The corners of the sheriff's mouth twitched as he watched the two of them leave, but in the end, he turned back and started his work. Although the army's attack was repelled this time, since they launched the attack, it meant that the army's sphere of influence had spread to this place. Now, they had to come up with a plan. They could either go to the NCR or leave this place and find a new stronghold … After all, the next time the army attacked, they wouldn't have a Death Claw to help them.
When Fangzheng and Kite arrived at the battlefield, the battle was already over. The Death Claw was lying in front of a dying army soldier and tearing his body, while several people were moaning beside him. The reason why they survived was obviously not because of good luck.
Kite took a step back when he saw the Death Claw gnawing at the human, while Fangzheng glanced over there and withdrew his gaze.
"Okay, go and interrogate them. See if you can get some information about your brother from them."
"Okay."
Kite nodded. She turned around and no longer looked at the eating scene over there. Instead, she strode over to the army soldiers who were moaning and crying. These guys were not much better. Although the Death Claw could understand why Fangzheng wanted it to 'keep them alive', it was up to it to decide how to keep them alive.
After all, even if it lost a leg or an arm, it could still live, right?
Kite was no longer the naive and ignorant little girl in the refuge. She looked at the army soldiers in front of her and grabbed one of them without hesitation. She glared at him and roared.
"Tell me, you attacked a refuge a month ago and captured the people there. Where did you take them?!"
"I, I don't know what refuge! I don't know anything!! "
The army soldier shook his head desperately and shouted loudly, while Fangzheng just looked at him silently.
"That's useless. Give them to my dog meat as an extra dish."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, Kite grabbed the army soldier and dragged him towards the Death Claw. The army soldier screamed when he saw the monster eating the internal organs of his comrade.
"No, no, let me go! I don't want to die! Damn it! I don't want to die! Oh, right, you're talking about those slaves, right? They were all sold! Really, I promise I'm telling the truth! "
"Who were they sold to?"
"I don't know. It's normal for the army to buy and sell slaves, but I guarantee someone knows …"
Kite stopped and looked at Fangzheng. The latter just glanced at the soldier.
"He's lying."
Kite raised her hand without hesitation and threw the soldier in front of the Death Claw. Before the latter could react, the Death Claw had already bitten off his neck.
"Don't try to lie to me!!"
Kite held the handle of her gun and glared fiercely at the remaining army soldiers.
"Do you think we can't tell if you're lying? You're too naive! Your lies aren't worth mentioning at all! If anyone dares to lie again, you'll end up like that bastard!! "
At first, Kite had a headache on how to interrogate these damn bastards because she could not be sure if they were lying or not. But Fangzheng told her that he could tell if they were telling the truth or lying. At first, Kite did not believe him, but after a few experiments, she had to admit that this man did have a magical power. She even suspected that Fangzheng could see through people's minds.
Kite now suspected that this man was not human, but a devil from hell or something. But … as long as she could find her family, so what if she sold her soul to the devil?
This world had already turned into hell anyway.
After delivering two more meals to the Death Claw, the third army soldier finally broke down and told Kite the information she wanted.
According to him, the slaves were taken to the base camp of the legion and interrogated by Kaiser himself. As for her brother, the army soldier said that there was indeed such a person among the slaves. Although he did not know the current situation of Kite's brother, according to the legion's regulations, any slave who joined the legion must go through training, especially the young and strong ones. Kite's brother was a boy, so it was very likely that he was sent to the legion for education so that he could become a member of the legion and serve Kaiser.
After confirming that the army soldier was telling the truth and getting the location of the legion from him, Kite did not hesitate to shoot all the remaining wounded soldiers. Meanwhile, Fangzheng just sat on a rock nearby and watched her blow up the heads of those soldiers.
"What are you going to do now?"
Fangzheng asked as Kite walked over. Kite looked a little confused when she heard Fangzheng's question.
"I want to save my brother, but … … I don't know what to do."
Looking at the gun in her hand, Kate seemed very helpless. Of course, she had heard about the situation of the army's encampment from the captives. There were hundreds of elite warriors and thousands of soldiers stationed there, and Kaiser himself was also a powerful existence. The guards around him also had terrifying firepower. To be honest, it was very difficult to rescue her brother from them.
Or rather, it was impossible.
"You still want to go?"
"Of course, I must save my brother. He's my family, and … … I won't let that damn legion go."
Kite clenched her fists tightly. She would never forget the day when the refuge was captured. On that day, her little world was completely destroyed and replaced by a new world full of death and radiation. She did not care who these people were, what their ideals and beliefs were. They destroyed her home, so they had to pay the price.
As for Fangzheng, he looked at her with interest and asked.
"What are you going to do?"
"… ….."
This time, Kite was speechless. She only had a pistol in her hand. Although she was very skilled, was very good at stealth, and knew how to make some firearms and spare parts, that was all she could do. There was no way she could fight against an entire legion alone.
"I … … I might be able to sneak in, find my brother, and escape with him."
This was the most feasible method Kite could think of. She had a certain degree of confidence in her stealth skills.
However, if she were to be discovered, she would be in deep trouble.
"You can give it a try."
Fangzheng nodded.
"I'll wait for you here for five days. If you need help, you can use this."
While saying that, Fangzheng took out a signal flare and threw it over.
"What's this?"
"When you're in danger, aim it at the sky and pull the line below. It can save your life."
Fangzheng did not intend to help. He wanted to see what the "protagonist" would do. After all, the protagonists in the Fallout games that Fangzheng had played had the ability to single-handedly kill a group of people.
If he remembered correctly, the protagonist in Fallout 2 even blew up the headquarters of Enclave.
Fangzheng felt that the girl in front of him also had the qualifications to do so.
"I … … I understand."
After taking the signal flare, Kite's expression was somewhat complicated. She glanced at the Death Claw not far away. For a moment, she seemed to hope that Fangzheng could help. But in the end, Kite gritted her teeth and nodded at Fangzheng with a smile.
"Thank you, sir. I'll definitely bring my brother back!"
"I hope so."
Fangzheng shrugged. Kite then turned around and walked into the depths of the Gobi Desert alone. Soon, her figure disappeared in the sandstorm.
At the same time.
A pair of white arms stretched out from behind Fangzheng and hugged his neck.
"Master, are you really not going to help?"
Lestia curiously stuck to Fangzheng's back and asked with a smile. Fangzheng just shrugged.
"If she asks me, I'll help. But since she decided to do it herself, I have nothing to say. Besides … … "
"Besides?"
"If she's here, I won't be able to sleep with you."
As he said that, Fangzheng turned his head to look at the smiling Lestia behind him.
"Tonight, we can finally have a good rest."
