Game Hunter - Chapter 19
Chapter 19 Cooperation With Shen Shi
Ignoring Xi Qing, Luo Fei turned his gaze to Locust Weirdo.
Luo Fei said in a low voice, “Should I call you Locust Weirdo or Shen Shihao?”
Locust Weirdo looked at Luo Fei coldly. His eyelids twitched slightly, but he still looked expressionless.
Luo Fei continued, “Let go of the hatred in your heart. Even if you kill them, Shen Kuo won’t come back. I think Shen Kuo doesn’t want to see you like this. Let go of the past and start a new life!”
Luo Fei roared in response to Locust Weirdo’s proposal.
Locust Weirdo waved his paw at Luo Fei. Fortunately, Luo Fei’s reaction was fast enough to dodge in time to avoid injury.
“Ai! Looks like we can’t communicate properly!” Luo Fei looked at Xi Qing and asked, “Where are my drives and game cassettes?”
“It’s in my backpack!”
Taking the backpack from Xi Qing’s hand, Luo Fei entered the game state.
Locust Weirdo also used his avatar ability at the same time. The exit was blocked by Locust Weirdo. It seemed that it was imperative this time.
“What a headache!” Luo Fei sighed.
“Hey, close your eyes immediately!”
“What?”
Xi Qing and the others were puzzled by Luo Fei’s sudden suggestion.
“Forget it, just do it!”
Xi Qing and the others obediently followed suit.
Luo Fei turned to look at Locust Weirdo and smiled, “I originally wanted to have a good fight with you, but with someone else here today, I’ll have to wait until I have a chance to have a good fight with you in the future.”
Luo Fei’s words gave Locust Weirdo an ominous premonition. Locust Weirdo pounced on Luo Fei, but it was already too late.
“Flash, speed up!”
Luo Fei could not fight while protecting a few burdens. In this situation, Luo Fei could only choose to retreat temporarily.
Under the intense light, all Locust Weirdo were like blind people, unable to see Luo Fei’s actions clearly.
Luo Fei was also an iron head. He picked up Xi Qing and the others, directly smashed through the wall and fled into the distance. Seeing Luo Fei and the others gradually move away from him, Locust Weirdo roared towards the sky. It watched as its enemy left, but it was helpless. It could only let out an incompetent roar.
In extreme anger, Locust Weirdo set fire to Xi Qing and the others’ homes until they were burnt to ashes. Only then did Locust Weirdo leave reluctantly.
When he returned to the cave again, Yangren, who was handcuffed in the cave, saw Locust Weirdo’s arrival and immediately asked about the situation.
Locust Weirdo wasn’t stupid. Of course, he knew that Yangren couldn’t help him wholeheartedly. Thus, in order to prevent Yangren from escaping, Locust Weirdo would be handcuffed to the cave every time Yangren acted.
“Did you succeed?”
Yangren asked Locust Weirdo about the situation, but when he saw that Locust Weirdo had a bad face, Locust Weirdo guessed what was going on without Yangren speaking.
“This is the last thing I can do for you.” Yangren sighed, “After that, I have no other choice.”
Hearing this, Locust Weirdo turned around and looked at Yangren coldly. Yangren complained, “I’m a wanted criminal now, and I don’t have any resources anymore. Even if you want me to help you, what should I do? The police outside are all looking for me, and I can’t sneak out.” “Xi Heng’s residence is already the last piece of information I can give you. In my opinion, our cooperation ends here. From now on, the road will face the sky. Let’s go our separate ways. I…”
Before Yangren could finish speaking, Locust Weirdo grabbed Yangren’s neck with one hand. The power coming from Locust Weirdo’s claws was slowly torturing Yangren.
Yangren panicked and said, “Spare me, spare me, I know. I will help you. I will help you search for news of another person with all my might.”
Locust Weirdo remained unmoved. He looked at Yangren expressionlessly.
Yangren said painfully, “I guarantee that I will find the news of Shangguan Wen, okay? I will definitely help you find the whereabouts of Shangguan Wen. If you kill me now, then you won’t be able to avenge Shen Kuo for the rest of your life, Shen Shi!”
Locust Weirdo narrowed his eyes and looked at Yangren, who was as tiny as an ant in his hand. In the end, he let Yangren go.
Even ants were useful. Locust Weirdo also needs to use Yangren to help him locate Shangguan Wen.
Yangren breathed heavily in the air. At this moment, he really regretted it. They said that Game corpse killed without blinking an eye. Now, Yangren finally understood the true meaning of this sentence.
Back then, after Xi Heng and the others forced Shen Kuo to death, Shen Shi began to retaliate against Xi Heng and the others. Unfortunately, the background of Xi Heng and the others was not something that an ordinary worker like Shen Shi could compare to.
Xi Heng and the others were all from wealthy families, and they usually had bodyguards secretly protecting their masters. Shen Shi’s revenge against Xi Heng and the others was simply a fantasy. The first time he took action, he suffered a tragic failure.
Shen Shi’s first goal was to often instigate Xi Heng and the others to beat Shen Kuo’s Ling Xiao. However, when Shen Shi was about to launch an operation, Ling Xiao’s bodyguards discovered Shen Shi’s existence and subdued Shen Shi on the spot.
Shen Shi, who was trapped in his hands and feet, was beaten by Ling Xiao. How did Ling Xiao torture Shen Kuo in the past? Now, he continued to torture Shen Shi in the same way as before.
With Shen Shi on the verge of death, the game virus in his body went from dormant to explosive. Shen Shi mutated into Locust Weirdo on the spot and killed Ling Xiao and his bodyguards on the spot.
And this scene happened to be seen by Yangren.
Locust Weirdo originally wanted to kill people to silence them, but the bold Yangren came up with an idea. Yangren needed news, traffic, and attention. Locust Weirdo needed revenge, and he needed to find the whereabouts of his enemies. Thus, Yangren suggested that Yangren help Locust Weirdo find the main culprits who maimed Shen Kuo. In return, Locust Weirdo only needed to let Yangren obtain first-hand information afterwards.
As a result, the two of them hit it off, Yangren avenged Locust Weirdo, and Locust Weirdo allowed Yangren to shoot the scene as soon as possible.
The cooperation between the two lasted for more than three months, until Yangren confirmed that Xi Heng and Shangguan Wen had already taken refuge in Shangxi City. Only then did Yangren and Locust Weirdo extend their scope of activities to other cities.
After a period of investigation, Yangren learned that Xi Heng’s mother, Xi Ruo, had changed her name to Li Ruo and was living in the Seventh District under an anonymous name. In order to force Xi Ruo out and find Xi Heng, Locust Weirdo took action against all the places Xi Ruo had been to.
Thinking back to his past with Locust Weirdo, Yangren sighed bitterly. Back then, he had truly chose to cooperate with the Abyss Devils because of his interest. Now, he wanted to get rid of the Abyss Devils, but the Abyss Devils did not allow Yangren to do so.
On the other side, after saving Xi Heng and the others, Luo Fei brought them back to his base.
Luo Fei said, “This is our base camp. Just stay here peacefully. No matter what, Locust Weirdo won’t be able to find this place.”
Xi Heng looked at the pitch-black environment with a self-evident expression of disgust on his face.
Xi Heng said without any hesitation, “Can someone live in such a dirty and messy place?”
Luo Fei didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He really had a young master’s temper. He couldn’t stand such a little mess.
Looking at Xi Qing and the others, Tang Ran’s expression was also unpredictable.
Seemingly noticing that something was wrong with Tang Ran, Li Li hurriedly moved away from Xi Qing and the others.
After Xi Qing and the others left, Tang Ran said, “Do we need to save them? If it weren’t for the school violence, Shen Kuo wouldn’t have died, and Shen Shi wouldn’t have turned into a game corpse. In other words, they deserved it, and Shen Shi only wanted revenge. Is that wrong?”
Tang Ran’s words caused Li Li and Luo Fei to be silent. In fact, Tang Ran’s words were exactly what Li Li and Luo Fei thought in their hearts. They were also confused. Was protecting such scum worth it?
“Not only is Shen Shi wrong, you are also wrong!”
The one who spoke to break the silence was Ou Sheng, who had a cold expression from just now until now.
Ou Sheng coldly said, “Game corpse’s existence is a kind of mistake. If Shen Shi mutated into Game corpse, then he is wrong. Moreover, in order to avenge himself, he implicated innocent people, which is even more wrong.” As for you, your minds have also made mistakes. You are soldiers. Soldiers only need to obey orders. You don’t need to have any other thoughts. When you have doubts about the orders you carry out, it means that you are no longer a qualified soldier. ”
Tang Ran wanted to refute, but he didn’t know what to say.
Luo Fei looked at Ou Sheng and questioned, “Soldiers take obeying orders as their duty. What is our duty as humans? Besides being soldiers, we are also humans!”
“The moment you became soldiers, you abandoned your human identity.” Ou Sheng said coldly, “No matter how much you hate Xi Heng, it’s our duty to protect him. As for what Xi Heng and the others did, it’s not something we should care about! I know you guys are unwilling, but there are too many things in this world that you can’t help but experience in the future!”
Luo Fei and the others didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, what was this all about?
“Why do they all look so lifeless?”
After breaking the awkward atmosphere, Luo Fei and the others noticed Zuo Jie’s existence.
Zuo Jie leaned on his cane and limped back to the base. This scene left Luo Fei and the others dumbfounded.
Li Li asked in surprise, “Didn’t the doctor say it would take you at least a week to leave the hospital? Why did you leave the hospital so quickly?”
Zuo Jie rubbed his nose and said, “The doctor said, do I have to be 100% obedient? I was so bored in the hospital that I snuck out.”
Luo Fei looked at Zuo Jie in shock and said in shock, “Really?”
Zuo Jie looked at Ou Sheng and laughed dryly, “Sorry, Captain, my body has already rusted. If you let me stay in the hospital, I will be suffocated. I request to return. Captain, please let me carry out my mission!”
The corner of Ou Sheng’s mouth twitched as he looked at Zuo Jie speechlessly.
After a long time, Ou Sheng said, “Whatever you want, as long as you don’t drag us down!”
With Ou Sheng’s approval, Zuo Jie was extremely excited. He said solemnly, “I promise I won’t hold my comrades back.”
After stabilizing the morale of the army, Ou Sheng also asked Xi Qing about Shangguan Wen’s situation.
Ou Shengkai said, “Although you and Shangguan Wen came to Shangxi City one after another, you are certain that you also noticed Shen Shi’s revenge actions, so you left your original residence. In private, you must still be in touch. You must know Shangguan Wen’s current residence, right?”
Xi Qing had no choice but to answer Ou Sheng’s question honestly, “I do have contact with Shangguan Wen, but I’m sorry, I can’t reveal Shangguan Wen’s current residence to you!”
