Five Frozen Centuries - Chapter 316
Chapter 316: Hunting Enemies In The Dark
The old man’s meaning was clear. He wanted to build a good relationship with the natives and use them to deal with the Atlanteans from the other teams. However, he had neglected one thing.
Four black-skinned humans jumped out of the forest with guns. They planned to attack Wei Huo and the old man immediately.
“Kill these aliens!”
“Kill them all!”
“There are only two of them. This is a good opportunity!”
Wei Huo had never heard their language before, but the system had translated it.
Based on their skin color, these people should be Africans from before the time halt who were also from the Southern Continent. However, the weapons in their hands were not simple.
Any prejudice about them being backward was thrown out of the window. They were holding cool, slick technological weapons. Blue particles were emitted from the gun. These people were also wearing power armor. The armor protected their wrists, ankles, and various joints.
They were also wearing helmets that had a small lens similar to the Power Level Scouter in Dragon Ball. This lens could help them aim and increase their shooting accuracy.
Apart from that, they were wearing shield belts. Meanwhile, a faint energy shield appeared around them.
This technology set was simply impressive. Even an ordinary warrior could kill a Rare-ranked creature with it, albeit an unarmed Rare-ranked creature.
The four black-skinned people pointed their guns at Wei Huo and the old man and shouted, “Don’t move! You should know what we’re holding and what we’re talking about. If you dare move, we’ll shoot you!”
One of the black men asked, “Are we capturing them alive? Why don’t we just kill them? They killed so many of our compatriots. We can take revenge by killing them!”
However, a black man who looked like the captain of the team said, “No, living aliens are more valuable than dead ones.”
The old man was confused. The person who claimed to know the language of the land people did not know what they were talking about.
Although Wei Huo understood, he did not want to be captured by the four black men. That was why he grabbed the old man’s neck.
Then, the characteristics of the Atlanteans on Wei Huo’s body gradually disappeared. His hair turned black, and his skin reverted to the Asian skin color. The mercury spots disappeared bit by bit.
The old man was terrified, but he could not speak.
The four black men were shocked as well. They heard Wei Huo say, “Don’t panic. I’m a land person like you guys.”
The four black men panicked. One of them pointed at Wei Huo and said, “Don’t move. We don’t believe you.”
However, their captain seemed to have thought of something. He said, “Are you Asian? Are you from the Northern Continent?”
Why had the administrator poisoned the young man and the old man? It was because words could explain a misunderstanding and resolve conflict.
Wei Huo said, “Yes, I’m from the Northern Continent, and the person in my hands is not an alien. He’s an Atlantean who lives in the deep sea. He appeared on this island because the Atlanteans treat this island as a battlefield. In the past, countless Atlanteans fought on this island. Based on your reaction, you should have fought with them many times, right?”
The black captain took a step forward and did not put down the gun in his hand. He said, “I won’t believe you unless you kill the person next to you to prove your identity!”
A common television drama scene took place. When a spy wanted to sneak into the enemy camp, the enemy asked him to kill his own people to prove himself.
Wei Huo threw the old man in front of the four black men and said, “I don’t care if the old man dies. The reason I revealed my identity to you was to save you. If you don’t believe me, I don’t care.”
The black captain did not believe Wei Huo. Wei Huo knew that very well. Besides, even if he really killed the old man, they would still not believe him. Instead, they would think that this was a spy’s trick.
Stories in television dramas were ultimately fiction. If the enemy wanted someone to kill their own people to prove themselves, it would mean that they were already suspecting that person. Under the circumstances, killing one or two people would not help one prove oneself.
Although the black captain did not want to believe Wei Huo, he wanted to know something. Thus, he said, “You said that you want to save us. You have to prove your strength first. Are you going to rely on your ability to change your body to save us?”
Wei Huo’s eyes emitted a golden light as he said, “You will soon discover my strength.”
He extended his mental strength, and four streams of it drilled into their minds and established a connection. Soon, Wei Huo started scanning the surroundings with his mental strength. Images within a radius of thousands of meters appeared in their minds.
The black captain was shocked. “What is this?”
Wei Huo said, “The view of God. I can scan the surroundings with my mental strength and transmit images to your brain. How far can your guns shoot?”
The black captain was doubtful. “Are you really a human from the Northern Continent? My Melting Sniper Rifle is the most long-range gun in the team. It can hit targets within 1,200 meters. If we can calculate wind speed and falling speed, we can hit targets within 2,000 meters!”
Wei Huo looked at the other three people, who reported their guns’ data.
“Our guns are rifles. We can only hit targets within 800 meters. If we can calculate all the data, we can also hit targets within 1,200 meters!”
Wei Huo shook his head. “That’s too close. Captain, do you have a talent for sniping? If I give you a gun, can you handle it?”
The black captain said, “That depends on what kind of gun it is.”
Trust was accumulated through contact. At that moment, Wei Huo wanted to gain their trust. That was why he had purchased a terrifying gun from the Godfiend Mall.
The gun was 2.5 meters long and filled with futuristic technology. Electricity crackled in the gun’s body, and red particles surrounded it. The scope was not a lens. It was actually a small virtual screen projector. A small data line was hanging from the gun’s butt, and there was a small clip at the end of the data line.
Wei Huo handed the gun to the black captain and said, “See that clip? Pin it to your ear. You can use your mind to control the zooming-in function of the scope. Its range is 4,200 meters, and each bullet contains an intelligent chip. It will automatically control itself based on the wind’s speed, the falling speed, and the angle of the Earth’s surface. At the same time, it has an aiming function. It can automatically lock onto the enemy.”
As Wei Huo spoke, the sky turned dark. However, due to Wei Huo’s spiritual power scan, they could still sense the surrounding situation clearly. Wei Huo asked, “What do you think? If you trust me, we will hunt down the enemies in the dark.”
