When Ren Xiaosu saw the Pyro Company's emblem, he roughly understood why Wang Congyang was being hunted down.
After all, Ren Xiaosu was not that forgetful since he was the one who did it.
But he did not expect there to be a T5 combatant among the Pyro Company that was hunting down Wang Congyang.
Even for the Pyro Company, a T5 combatant was very precious, right? More than a dozen of the Pyro Company's T5 combatants had died in the Sacred Mountains. Yet they still sent a T5 combatant to hunt down Wang Congyang. It could be seen how much importance the Pyro Company placed on Wang Congyang.
The T5 combatant was running wildly through the wilderness. His shirt was gradually burned to pieces by the flames, revealing a grayish-black skin that looked like it had been scorched by the flames.
His hair and eyebrows were all burned away, and he looked like a vicious dog that had just crawled out of hell.
Moreover, the T5 combatant's target was no longer Wang Congyang. It was Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin!
Yang Xiaojin asked, "Should he use the black bullets? If he's sprinting at this speed, it'll take him some time to change directions. He won't be able to dodge the black bullets. "
Ren Xiaosu felt his heart ache. "Ahem, take a break first. Let's not use the black bullets for now. I'm afraid you'll tire yourself out."
Yang Xiaojin pursed her lips and nearly laughed out loud. She liked seeing Ren Xiaosu trying to come up with a dignified excuse even though he was the stingy one.
A moment later, Ren Xiaosu jumped out from behind the mound and headed straight for the T5 combatant without any concealment.
The T5 combatant only calculated Ren Xiaosu's speed and sneered in his heart. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. The human in front of him was not a match for him.
A sniper had actually given up what he was best at to compete in close combat with him. Wasn't that just courting death?
However, it was useless even if he used a sniper rifle. He was already within a 100 meters of him. No matter how good the two snipers' marksmanship was, they would not be able to save him!
At this moment, the T5 combatant saw the steam locomotive he had been chasing for two days coming to a stop in the distance.
The T5 combatant was puzzled. Why was the other party not running anymore? Was he not afraid that he would continue chasing after him after he finished off these two people?
However, he did not have the time to think about this. The T5 combatant looked seriously at the oncoming Ren Xiaosu and thought to himself that this young man was quite strong-willed. He even dared to fight a T5 combatant one-on-one to the death.
As he was thinking this, the T5 combatant was knocked into the air by "Old Xu," who had appeared out of nowhere.
The huge impact from the side left the T5 combatant at a loss. His entire body began to twist at this moment. Then he completed a 1080-degree spin in the sky, accompanied by the roar of a sniper rifle.
The T5 combatant saw the girl pull the trigger in midair, but he felt that as long as he turned quickly, the bullet would not be able to catch up to him.
But in fact, Yang Xiaojin had fired three shots in a row. Even though Old Xu had spun the T5 around at high speed, each bullet still landed on the same wound.
The three bullets had penetrated the T5 combatant's body!
The T5 combatant fell to the ground like a rag bag. When Ren Xiaosu saw him die, he dusted off the non-existent dust on his hands. "These T5s don't seem to be very smart. They just don't understand the principle that all is fair in war. Could it be that they've abandoned some of their intelligence on the path of evolution?"
"That's possible." Yang Xiaojin put away her gun and stood up. "They're different from supernatural beings. They rely purely on external forces to evolve, so it's very likely that there are some side effects. However, most supernatural beings end up very tragically when they encounter them."
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu looked at the steam locomotive that was parked in the wilderness in the distance. Wang Congyang was inside the train and looked like he would start running away again at any moment.
"Why didn't that guy take the opportunity to run away?" Ren Xiaosu wondered.
However, he heard Wang Congyang roar, "You're the one who the Pyro Company is hunting me down, aren't you?!"
Ren Xiaosu was stunned. How did Wang Congyang guess it was him? He shouted, "No, listen to my quibbling!"
Wang Congyang was speechless.
He nearly spat out a mouthful of blood out of the window. He shouted at Ren Xiaosu, "After I met you at Stronghold 73's East Lake, the Pyro Company started putting me on the wanted list. Now that I've encountered you in the Sacred Mountains, the Pyro Company immediately increased the bounty on me. I find it very hard to believe this is a coincidence!"
Although Wang Congyang still did not know what was going on or what exactly had happened, he suddenly gained the ability to become a scapegoat when he left Stronghold 73. He was even wanted by the Pyro Company. Now that something similar had happened, his scapegoat had grown even bigger. How could this be a coincidence?
At that time, he already felt something was amiss. Xu Xianchu clearly had the ability to take the blame as well, so why did he suddenly gain the same power as Xu Xianchu? Something must have gone wrong somewhere.
And wasn't the so-called power to take the blame for someone else taking the blame? This hint was so straightforward that it was just short of being explicit.
Perhaps Xu Xianchu could not think of the root cause and was even feeling smug about gaining a new power. But how could Wang Congyang not have thought of it?
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, "It really doesn't have anything to do with me!"
Wang Congyang slowly calmed down. "Whether you admit it or not, I know what's going on. Although I don't know how you did it, I'd like to formally apologize to you here and now. As the saying goes, revenge breeds revenge. Why don't we bury the hatchet? You can continue on your path, and I'll continue delivering my deliveries! I didn't have a choice in the past, but now I just want to be a good person! "
These were Wang Congyang's heartfelt words. He really did not want to get involved in any more strange matters. He already had enough money to spend, yet he was still being hunted down every day. How could he justify himself?
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment before replying, "What if I say no? You've made trouble for me more than once or twice, haven't you? "
Wang Congyang was breaking down a little. "Why not? Didn't you even kill my cousin? Actually, I don't have a good relationship with that cousin of mine. Do you remember when I went to search your yard for the first time? I even said that it would be great if you were a soldier under me? You'd be much better than those useless soldiers from the private army. Actually, I didn't have any intention of killing you at that time."
Ren Xiaosu raised an eyebrow. "You still think you're innocent?"
Wang Congyang said bitterly, "Stop right there. I know that no snowflake is innocent during an avalanche, but you can't just grab onto a snowflake and beat it to death!"
A cold wind blew across the wilderness. Other than the sound of the wind, there was no other sound.
At this moment, Yang Xiaojin suddenly said, "You might have misunderstood. Ren Xiaosu didn't grab onto you and beat you to death."
Wang Congyang was taken aback. "Then what?"
Yang Xiaojin said in a serious tone, "He beat every single snowflake."
Ren Xiaosu was speechless.
The steam locomotive's chimney spewed out a plume of black smoke. Without another word, Wang Congyang chose to leave! This was not a place to stay for long!
Yang Xiaojin looked at Ren Xiaosu strangely. "Did I scare him?"
