Report

"Are you out of your mind?!"

Colleen yelled at Kieran.

"No!"

Kieran answered firmly.

"Then do you know what you are talking about?"

Colleen's gray eyes looked at Kieran like he was crazy.

"Of course, I know what I'm talking about, and I know what I want to do, just like I know that the nest of the Vulture must be heavily guarded and dangerous. However, I have to do this … This is an opportunity!"

Kieran looked at Colleen and said seriously.

"The Vulture has sent his men to surround us. He obviously doesn't want us to live, even if we fail this time. Or rather, Vulture will be even more aggressive. Just like you said, only by killing us can that bitch defend her reputation, and showing her brutal side is the best way! "

Kieran looked at Colleen's relaxed expression and took a deep breath before continuing.

"When the Vulture sends his men again, they won't be as easy to deal with as the one in front of us. They will be on high alert and it will be hard for us to kill them. Don't even think about ambushing them like this. They will also be better equipped. Don't tell me that before the war, the whole police station relied on these pistols to keep the peace! "

Kieran showed Colleen the loot in his hand.

"But … But …"

Colleen frowned and wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.

She knew that Kieran was telling the truth.

Although she had looked down on the Vulture, it did not change the fact that the Vulture was strong.

"That's why we have to kill him before the Vulture can react! Wipe them out! "

Kieran said with a powerful voice.

"Fine, fine. I agree with Kieran, but you have to know that this is not going to be easy!"

Colleen thought for a while and raised her hands to show that she was willing to compromise.

She still tried to persuade Kieran.

Colleen needed someone to rely on for a long time. Even though Kieran's words made sense, she still wanted the whole plan to be more stable.

Especially when they had gained some advantages.

Colleen wanted to use the spoils of war to exchange for some supplies. She wanted to live a little longer in this bloody war, even if she had to hide.

After all, she had done this for the past four months.

However, Kieran was different!

Kieran was a player!

Moreover, it was a player who had to rely on the game to earn enough money to cure his terminal illness!

Hence, he needed to become stronger as quickly as possible. He needed to kill enough enemy NPCs to obtain weapons and equipment that he could sell and earn enough money to pay for his own healing.

That was why Kieran would not let go of an enemy NPC like the Vulture, who looked like a boss.

As for relying on hiding to pass the rest of the game?

If Kieran was an ordinary player, he would consider it.

Unfortunately, Kieran was not one of them.

"I know it's not going to be easy. That's why we need to make it easier. Colleen, can you help me keep an eye on our surroundings? By the way, I need to borrow your kitchen knife! "

Kieran said, pointing at the captive on the ground.

"Alright!"

Colleen sighed and walked to the other side of the ruins.

Not only was it a good place to hide, but it also had a good view. Before leaving, Colleen followed Kieran's instructions and left the kitchen knife behind.

This knife was Kieran's spoils of war.

But because of the battle tonight, Kieran had given it to Colleen just in case.

Colleen would not object to Kieran's temporary borrowing.

What did Kieran want to do?

Colleen had guessed it, but she still supported him.

After living in the chaos of war for four months, Colleen had changed her mind. She no longer cared about right or wrong. She only cared that this would help her live a better life.

This was the wish of every person in the chaos of war.

Colleen was no exception.

Kieran watched as Colleen walked to the guard position, then looked at the captive in front of him.

Kieran did not know what Colleen was thinking. All he knew was that she was on the same boat as him, and he could trust her.

Kieran gave the captive a kick to wake him up from his unconsciousness.

"Please, let me go!"

The moment the fanged thug woke up, he begged for mercy again.

"Sure, as long as you tell me everything I want to know."

Kieran nodded and said calmly.

His calmness scared the captive even more. He could not tell if Kieran was telling the truth or lying to him.

But he had no other choice.

The initiative was in Kieran's hands.

"What do you want to know?"

The captured thug asked cautiously.

"Everything about the Vulture, including your hideout and the number of people you have!"

Kieran said.

"I don't know much about the Vulture, but the hideout is in an underground storehouse in a shopping mall on Sixth Avenue. There are twenty of us … Aaaaargh!"

Before the captive could finish, he screamed in pain.

Kieran raised his knife and cut off one of the man's fingers.

"Shut up! You know I'm not asking about this. I want to know what you don't know. You have two more chances! "

Kieran looked at the captive coldly with the kitchen knife in his hand.

The captive's scream stopped abruptly. Looking at Kieran's cold face and the bloody kitchen knife in his hand, the captive's fear overcame his pain.

"I really don't know anything about the Vulture. He was not famous before, but he suddenly became famous during the war. The hideout is really in an underground storehouse, but there are thirty of us. A few days ago, the Vulture recruited another group of people! "

The pain and fear forced the captive to say something concrete.

Thirty people?

Kieran squinted his eyes.

Twenty people and thirty people were two different things.

If it had been the former, after dealing with the two armed men yesterday and the seven today, Kieran would have only had to face eleven enemies.

But now, he had to face twenty-one.

Kieran instantly felt the pressure multiplying.

However, the next moment, Kieran frowned as he thought of a problem.

"Under these conditions, how can we gather the daily necessities of thirty people? You don't even seem to lack food and water! The shopping mall where the hideout is located is just a department store, not a supermarket! Don't tell me that the Vulture brought them out from the police station! You're lying! "

Kieran raised his kitchen knife.

Just like what Kieran had said, the necessities of thirty people were quite difficult at the moment.

This was not the era of peace, nor was it the time when the war had just started.

The war had lasted for four months, and the necessities of the whole city had become extremely scarce.

Even though Kieran had only been there for less than two days, he could feel how precious food and water were.

However, the armed man before him did not show any signs of hunger or lack of water.

On the contrary, his body was not only strong, but also full of vitality.

If it was only one person, it could be explained as luck, but Kieran recalled that all the armed men he had encountered were like this.

Obviously, the armed men did not lack food and water, and they had a lot of supplies. They would not run out in a short period of time, and it was not as simple as the necessities of thirty adults.

It was at least two or three weeks' worth of necessities for thirty adults!

Even if the Vulture had the advantage of weapons and numbers, it was impossible for them to do that.

Unless they had robbed a big supermarket.

But that was also impossible!

When the war had started, the place had been emptied by the residents of the city.

So, Kieran instinctively thought that the man was lying.

"No! I didn't! Boss Vulture has a special channel to get supplies! "

The man looked at the kitchen knife in Kieran's hand, and his eyes narrowed.

"What channel?"

Kieran asked.

The man seemed hesitant, but Kieran didn't.

He raised the kitchen knife and swung it down.

Another finger of the armed man was chopped off.

"Aaaaargh!"

The armed thug screamed in pain again.

"Looks like you don't understand your situation. Do I need to remind you again?"

Kieran raised the kitchen knife again.

"It's the rebels! The rebels! "

The armed thug immediately said.

"The rebels?"

Kieran was stunned.

He had not expected the Vulture to have connections with the rebels. After all, according to Colleen and the thug, the Vulture had only been a gangster before the war broke out.

How could someone like him have connections with the rebels?

"Boss Vulture captured some women and used them to cooperate with a major in the rebel army!"

The thug seemed to be worried that he would be stabbed again if he was too slow, so he answered without waiting for Kieran to ask.

The moment Kieran heard that, he gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.

Kieran was not stupid, so he could guess what the Vulture and the rebel major were working together.

Kieran's heart was filled with rage.

Then his rage turned into killing intent.

However, when he looked at the armed thug, he seemed very calm.

"Very good. Looks like you understand how we talk. Now, tell me the layout of the hideout and the positions of the guards!"

Kieran said.

"Yes, yes!"

The armed thug nodded repeatedly and spilled everything he knew like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
