More than 20 bandits were able to intimidate several hundred refugees. Moreover, Ren Xiaosu did not see any signs of resistance from these refugees.
The bandit leader, Jin Lan, was still chattering away. "Don't worry, I, Jin Lan, went to school for two years back in town. I'm not a brute who kills without batting an eyelid, so I won't do anything to you."
At this moment, someone chimed in, "That's right, our boss is very knowledgeable. Those people from the other strongholds can't compare to him at all."
Jin Lan smiled modestly. "It's not that exaggerated. Speaking of which, I, Jin Lan, brought y 'all back to the stronghold because I wanted to give y' all a good life. Look at how thin y 'all are, especially you!"
Then he pointed at Ren Xiaosu. "Look at how thin you've become. You're sallow and emaciated. It looks like you don't have any strength at all."
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a long time. He looked at his own body. Ever since he achieved a balance between his Strength and Dexterity attributes, he did look a little thin.
Meanwhile, Yang Xiaojin was chuckling beside him. It was as though she had heard something very amusing.
Jin Lan did not care about Ren Xiaosu's reaction. He continued nagging, "Y 'all don't know how intense the fighting is in the north, nor do you know where these forces came from. The more they fight, the fiercer they become. Y' all can only survive if you follow me, understand?"
Ren Xiaosu looked at her speechlessly. They were escorted by more than 20 bandits for more than five kilometers before they finally arrived at the bandits' campsite.
The campsite was extremely simple and crude. It was just an open space surrounded by a wooden fence. There were only some mud huts in the campsite, and there were even big holes in the roofs.
Other than the new firearms, everything else was in tatters!
Ren Xiaosu could imagine how miserable these people were before they received the Kyung Clan's support.
But it was different now. There were dozens of brand-new motorcycles parked in the open space of the campsite, and dozens of green-painted oil drums were placed next to them. Next to the oil drums were boxes of firearms.
Grenades and bullets were all piled up next to the oil drums. If something were to fucking explode there, the firearms would probably engulf the entire stronghold in an instant.
Seeing this, Ren Xiaosu had some misgivings. He better not get killed by these stupid bandits. That would be such a waste.
But right after, he saw the bandits who had just returned home planning to start a fire less than ten meters away from the oil drums.
Ren Xiaosu's hair stood on end. He muttered to Yang Xiaojin in a low voice, "If another mountain stronghold were to attack, these people would probably die without even knowing how they died. Even the Zong Consortium can't defeat bandits of this caliber?!"
But even so, just by looking at the miserable state Jin Lan and his bandits were in, it was clear that Jin Lan and his men were probably the worst group of bandits in the entire valley. They did not even know where their next meal would come from.
All of a sudden, Jin Lan said, "If you're willing to fight with me, go to the side and collect your guns. I'll give you a chance to choose!"
Ren Xiaosu was shocked. How did this guy manage to occupy the stronghold? Wasn't he afraid that these refugees would just take out their guns and kill him?
But something even more shocking to Ren Xiaosu happened. In the end, more than 30 men still went to collect their guns. But after they collected their guns, they just squatted down in a daze and continued listening to Jin Lan's lecture.
They did not even have any thoughts of resisting!
All of this in front of him was just like the absurd fantasy novels he had read in Stronghold 88's library. In fact, it was even stranger than the novels.
Those refugees had been told since they were young that they had to obey and obey orders. If they disobeyed, they would be beaten up.
They did not have the courage to resist the consortiums. No matter which stronghold they occupied, they would subconsciously choose to submit to it. This was a habit imposed on them by their difficult lives.
At this moment, one of Jin Lan's subordinates came up to Ren Xiaosu. When he saw Yang Xiaojin, he was stunned. Although Yang Xiaojin had deliberately tarnished her reputation, it was still difficult to conceal something like her background.
The bandit said excitedly, "This girl looks pretty good. If she cleans her face, she'll definitely be very pretty. She's mine now."
When Ren Xiaosu heard this, he sighed. Bandits were still bandits after all. He said, "Um, I'm sorry, but I'll have to interrupt you for a moment."
A second later, Ren Xiaosu suddenly jumped up and broke the bandit's right rib with a punch while he was defenseless. The bandit's chest instantly caved in.
The people around him were shocked. He had even broken the bones when he said he would break them! What kind of interruption was this? Was it a physical interruption?!
Jin Lan and the others were starting a fire when they were shocked by this scene. They wanted to pick up the guns around them to defend themselves.
But Ren Xiaosu did not stop at all. Before Jin Lan could reach for his gun, Ren Xiaosu had already arrived in front of him and kicked him in the face!
Jin Lan instinctively flipped over and leaned back. It was this movement that saved his life, but his head was buzzing.
Gunshots rang out in succession. Yang Xiaojin was covering Ren Xiaosu with an exquisite pistol in her hand. The bandits who had picked up their guns suddenly felt their palms go numb. Everyone's wrists that were holding onto their guns were bleeding profusely.
The surrounding refugees were dumbfounded. Just who were this couple who had just joined them?
Some of the smarter bandits knelt to the ground with a thud. "Supernatural beings! Spare me! "
The speed and strength displayed by Ren Xiaosu were definitely above that of mortals. Therefore, the bandits were not stupid. They knew exactly what they were facing right now.
As for Yang Xiaojin's marksmanship, it was a shock that could be felt directly.
Jin Lan knelt on the ground and saw stars as his nose bled. "Bro, spare me, spare me! It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! We've only just become bandits and haven't killed anyone yet! "
Ren Xiaosu looked around and realized that this group of weaklings were all kneeling on the ground. They had even thrown their guns far away.
What kind of fucking bandits were these? Did they not have any guts at all?
Ren Xiaosu looked at Jin Lan and said with a frown, "How did you become a bandit?"
Jin Lan wiped the blood from his nose and was on the verge of tears. "We were farming at Mt. Tangwang in the north, but someone told us that we would be given guns, motorcycles, and food if we became bandits. So we went up the mountain and became bandits. We've only been bandits for two months …."
Ren Xiaosu was speechless for a long time. What on earth was the Kyung Clan trying to do?
Jin Lan looked at Ren Xiaosu and said, "Bro, you'll be the boss of this mountain from now on. I hope you can lead us to become stronger!"
"No, wait a minute." Ren Xiaosu facepalmed. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Jin Lan smiled obsequiously and said, "You probably don't know, but there's a group of bandits in the north who are especially fierce. It's because their boss is a supernatural being. You're also a supernatural being, so you'll definitely be better and more powerful than him!"
