Chuck was an ability user, and he regarded ability users as the core fighting force of the Hellfire Bandits. Therefore, Gao Qi firmly believed that if the bandits were to come for revenge, there was a high chance that it would be a battle between ability users.
The more time passed, the more likely it would be that Chuck would come personally.
The reason was simple. The Hellfire Bandits had about six hundred members. If Chuck wanted to come personally, he would naturally have to make arrangements before he could set off.
It wasn't that Gao Qi was flawless, but that he had seen this kind of thing too many times. As a person who had lived two lives, if he didn't have this kind of experience, wouldn't he be useless?
The bandit with the white flag was wearing a complete set of clothes. What surprised Gao Qi was that the bandit was wearing a pair of denim overalls with a simple style, but it was obvious that they were new.
After the Cataclysm, some cities retained their complete industrial production capacity, but most cities, as well as the entire wasteland, had basically lost all industries. The textile industry needed for cloth and clothing had almost completely disappeared.
For a long time after the Cataclysm, even Morning Dawn City was in short supply of cloth and clothing. It was only after City One was able to mass-produce cloth and clothing and export them that Morning Dawn City's fashion industry gradually increased.
But how did a bandit who had always been in the wasteland obtain new clothes?
Gao Qi kept looking at the bandit's jeans. He held back for a long time before finally saying, "Your clothes are not bad. Where did you get them?"
Anna translated Gao Qi's words. The bandit looked back at Anna, gulped, and immediately smiled. "They're new. Do they look good? Do you like jeans? Uh … maybe you can get them too. "
Anna immediately said to Gao Qi, "I don't like his smile. This guy makes me feel disgusted."
She wasn't afraid that the bandit would understand. In fact, it didn't matter if he understood. Anna didn't care.
Gao Qi smiled. "Sorry to trouble you. Where did he get the clothes?"
"They're new."
"Ask him where he got the cloth and how he made them."
Anna asked. She then turned to Gao Qi and said, "He didn't say. He only said that we'll know when we meet Chuck."
Gao Qi shrugged. "Alright, I'll ask Chuck later."
At this time, Niu Lidong couldn't help but say to Gao Qi, "Brother Qi, I still don't think we should let Anna go with us. Even if she goes, she should at least dress up a little ugly. She's so beautiful. If those bandits see her, wouldn't it be … right?"
Gao Qi smiled and said, "I want to see what kind of person this Chuck is. If he's someone important and wants to recruit me, even if I have a peerless beauty by my side, he won't be moved, then I'll let him live. If he's lustful, then I'll kill him and become the boss myself."
Niu Lidong was stunned for a moment and said, "You didn't say that before. You'll be the boss?"
Gao Qi shrugged and said, "Yeah, it's just the three of us. It's not convenient for us to do anything. Since we need manpower, what's more suitable than a large-scale, organized bandit gang? Anyway, the one with the bigger fist has the final say. We'll just take it. "
Anna frowned and said, "You're using my beauty. Is this a honey trap?"
Gao Qi was shocked. Then he said very seriously, "You're a peerless beauty, but this isn't a honey trap. A honey trap is to give a woman away. You just need to appear with me. I just want Chuck to see your peerless beauty. If he has any bad intentions, I'll kill him directly. That's all."
Anna thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then I won't be angry."
At that moment, the bandit holding the white flag suddenly said, "Stop here."
They could already see the car in front. The bandit waved the white flag in his hand a few times. After waiting for a moment, he said to Gao Qi, "Follow me."
Chuck was a cautious person. He was far from the village, and the bandit had actually communicated with him using semaphore. It seemed that Chuck was quite capable.
They could already see people. They could see that there were machine guns mounted on the trucks, but most of them had put away the rifles in their hands and were not aimed at Gao Qi's group. From this detail, it seemed that Chuck wanted to express some goodwill.
He was a middle-aged man in his forties with a ridiculous mustache. He was wearing a white T-shirt, the same jeans with suspenders, a pair of pointed leather shoes, and a cowboy hat on his head. A belt hung diagonally from his waist, and a revolver hung from the belt.
It was a very retro cowboy style. Now Gao Qi knew why the bandit leading the way was wearing jeans. It seemed to be their uniform style.
"I'm Chuck, the God of Fire!"
Gao Qi sized up Chuck, and Chuck sized up Gao Qi. After a moment, Chuck looked at Anna, but his eyes didn't linger on Anna for long. He then looked at Niu Lidong and said, "You're not from the wasteland. Then who are you? Why did you attack my men?"
Gao Qi didn't say anything. There were at least a few dozen people around Chuck, and he had to carefully observe them.
There were four or five people who didn't have guns. Gao Qi thought they were superpowered people. Two of them only had pistols. They were most likely superpowered people. The rest of the people were mostly carrying rifles. They should be ordinary people.
While Gao Qi was still sizing them up, Chuck's face darkened. "Hey, I'm talking to you!"
Gao Qi finally returned his gaze to Chuck. He waved his hand and said, "I don't want to waste time. Let's move on to the next step. Tell me, how many people did you bring with you? How many psychics?"
Anna was a little surprised, but she still translated Gao Qi's words. When Chuck heard it, he looked as if he had seen a ghost. "Do you want to die?"
Anna turned to Gao Qi and said, "He said you want to die? Actually, I wanted to ask you the same thing. Didn't you want to negotiate? Why did you talk like that?"
Gao Qi sighed and said, "Because I found that there's nothing to say. You see, it's just the three of us, but this Chuck looks like he's facing a great enemy. He's even polite to me. What does this mean? It means that he's a very cautious and timid person. He won't attack me before he figures out my background. Since he doesn't dare to take the initiative to attack me, then I'll take the initiative. In any case, I'm going to kill him and take his position, so why be polite?"
There's no need to be polite. "Gao Qi said righteously. Anna and Niu Lidong were dumbfounded. Chuck, on the other hand, had a look of vigilance." What are you talking about! Don't you know that this is very rude?! "
Waving his hand again, Gao Qi said to Anna, "Don't waste time. Ask him if he's willing to be my little brother. In the future, the Inferno will be mine. If he's willing, then I'll let him go. If not, then I'll kill him."
