Chuck had indeed made the right and wise choice, and now he knew that. Therefore, the existence of brainless villains was very meaningful, or rather, the purpose of brainless villains was to provide negative examples for those with brains.
"You've made a wise decision."
Hearing Anna's words, Chuck quivered, then he looked at Gao Qi and asked, "Who are you?"
Gao Qi spread his hands, thought for a moment, and said, "My name is … Gao Qi, but people call me Grandpa Fire."
Chuck seemed to have never heard of Grandpa Fire. He licked his lips and said, "So you're a fire ability user."
"Yes, not just fire, but I'm called Grandpa Fire."
Chuck's expression became more and more respectful. He lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Are you also a metal ability user? Boulder is a very strong metal ability user, but he couldn't even resist, he couldn't control those bullets. "
This question was not easy to answer, but at this time, Niu Lidong said, "That's right, brother Qi, how did you do it? How did those bullets all fly to you?"
"Boulder used his ability to stop the bullets, but his range of control was limited, so I used a spatial array to cover his range of control. When he controlled the bullets to fly randomly, the bullets' flight path would be disturbed. This is a new method I came up with to deal with the bullets, and the effect is not bad. Oh, but you don't have to tell him this, just say that I'm a metal ability user."
Anna looked at Gao Qi, then she said to Chuck, "Yes, he's a metal ability user."
There seemed to be nothing more to talk about, Gao Qi waved his hand and said, "Now let me ask him a few questions. First, I want to know why he brought so many people here, but in the end, he had to fight with Boulder."
Chuck founded Hellfire, he pulled together a team, and relied on plundering in the wasteland for a living. Then he took in Boulder, and Boulder was lucky enough to awaken as an ability user.
Boulder was getting stronger and stronger. He was the leader of the ability users. If Chuck needed to deal with a powerful enemy, he no longer needed to do it himself. Boulder could just lead the ability users there.
As time passed, Bolt's prestige among the superhumans grew higher and higher. However, he was dissatisfied with the fact that no one else was willing to listen to his orders.
And this incident was the fuse. When the escaped criminals brought back the news, Chuck still hadn't decided whether or not to retaliate, but Bolt strongly insisted that they must.
After that, Chuck had no choice but to personally lead the team because he was worried that he would lose control of the Hellfire.
Then, when Chuck didn't dare to act rashly in front of Gao Qi, Bolt couldn't hold himself back anymore. He felt that this was a good opportunity to kill and seize power.
Chuck's answer was similar to what Gao Qi had expected. This was a cliché story of an old king who had yet to abdicate and a new emperor who was in a hurry to ascend the throne.
However, Gao Qi was a little puzzled at this point because Chuck's explanation was too brief. He had to understand the crux of Hellfire's internal struggle.
"Wait a minute."
After gesturing for Chuck to stop talking, Gao Qi pondered for a long time before asking, "Did you and Bolt have a grudge for a long time, or just recently?"
Chuck replied in a low voice, "We've always been on good terms, but ever since we were driven away, Bolt became dissatisfied with my methods."
"Is it a battle of ideals? What's the difference between the two of you?"
Chuck thought for a bit and said, "I'm more moderate, but Bolt's methods are too radical. He used to be a slave when he was young, which made his way of thinking very extreme. He never understood why I always left enough rations for the people I robbed to survive instead of directly robbing them of everything."
Gao Qi's interest was immediately piqued. He looked at Anna and asked, "Slaves? Did he say slaves? Are you sure you didn't translate it wrong? "
Anna said in dissatisfaction, "Of course I didn't translate it wrong. He was talking about slaves."
Gao Qi thought for a long time before nodding. "Do you rescue slaves?"
Chuck was stunned for a moment before saying, "Yes, I rescue slaves."
Gao Qi was getting excited. He immediately asked, "Why do you rescue slaves? Is it because you find them pitiful, or do you think slaves can become your followers? "
All kinds of ugly things could appear on the wasteland, so the appearance of slaves was not strange at all. Slaves were treated differently, so there was no need to ask why there were slaves, only why Chuck rescued them.
Chuck was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and said, "I used to be a slave, but then I suddenly became an Adept, so I killed my master's family and rescued all the slaves in the town. Then I took them and escaped."
Most of the time, a problem would lead to more problems.
"Why did you escape instead of choosing to stay and enjoy the resources left behind by your master after killing him?"
Chuck exhaled and said helplessly, "Because that place is under the protection of the city. When I made my move, someone had already notified the city via radio. As the protector, the city has the obligation to send troops to clean up the slaves who dare to resist."
Gao Qi said from the bottom of his heart, "My God, this is really a paradise for rebellion! Slavery is actually institutionalized? Oh my god, it's hard to imagine. "
Anna frowned. "Do you need to repeat that sentence?"
"No, hmm, ask him if slavery is common here."
After hearing Gao Qi's new question, Chuck could not remain calm. He looked at Gao Qi again and again, and finally could not help but say, "It's very common here. Big Wasteland forces annexing small Wasteland villages, because all of this started in the City of Sin. When the trend was formed, everyone began to follow suit."
Gao Qi was very, very excited. He said in a trembling voice, "The pinnacle of Junglism, this is the real Junglism, a new order established after completely losing the constraints of law and morality. Oh, this is great!"
Anna widened her eyes in surprise, but Gao Qi said to Chuck, "Then are the people of Hellfire slaves? Are they all slaves that you rescued? "
Chuck shook his head and said, "Not all of them, but most of them. But after we left the City of Sin, we rarely saw slaves, so I only took away a portion of their resources and didn't kill them all. Bolt felt that I was merciful to him, but he always felt that I didn't have to be so kind."
Gao Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about Bolt. Now tell me, why did you rescue these slaves?"
Chuck frowned. "Why? There's no reason. They are slaves, after killing their masters, they have nowhere to go. Why did I rescue them, other than the fact that they are pitiful, it's also because … I want to be Robin Hood. "
After hearing Chuck's answer, Gao Qi was silent for a long time, and only shook his head and sighed. "You only want to be a hero thief, your vision is too small."
