The Death List Novel - Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Violent Corps
“Big Brother Xiao Nan, don’t eat me. Little Ya isn’t delicious!” Little Y’s face was full of tears and snot, and her small black eyes were filled with uncontrollable fear.

Although Meteor Street was named after a street, it was actually equivalent to a small autonomous region. Most of Meteor Street was a desert filled with poisonous sand and dust, filled with garbage mountains. Only the northeastern corner was slightly better air quality due to its proximity to the large forest, making it suitable for human survival.

Although Meteor Street had a council of elders, it did not form a dominant superstructure because most of its living resources came from the recycling of garbage. The Council of Elders was composed of respected elders and was responsible for coordinating the daily disputes between large and small violent gangs in Meteor Street.

Due to the extremely harsh living environment, Meteor Street was basically unable to produce agricultural products and meat. Compared to daily necessities, the thing that was most lacking here was food. In many parts of Meteor Street, cannibalism is common.

There are many abandoned infants and orphans in Meteor Street. Most of them are disabled and it is difficult for them to make a living like normal people. Because of violence and strife, women and children who have lost men are often unable to survive, both of whom are the most common victims of cannibalism.

Hearing Little Ya’s cry, Little Nan stiffened his body and slowly raised his head. Looking at his little companion with a face full of fear, his eyes slowly revealed a deathly gray color. “Little Ya, I won’t eat you. You will live.” He suddenly grinned and let out a weird voice that seemed to be crying but not crying, “Little Ya, I won’t eat you. You will live.”

The boy slowly stood up and took off his upper body’s vest, revealing a rib-shaped figure. His voice seemed to come from the sky, carrying a trace of seeping calm. “Bone boss, how many days can I exchange for food?”

“Are you really going to do this? You should know that without you, Little Ya won’t be able to live for a few days. How about … three or one week, Little Ya can get a week’s rations.” Bone was only halfway through his words when he looked up and saw the expression on Xiao Nan’s face. He then fell silent.

“Boss! This brat isn’t enough for us to eat. It’s only worth three days at most” In the group behind Bone, a strong man with a camel jumped out indignantly. This person’s left arm was somewhat atrophic, but his right arm was several times thicker than an ordinary person’s. The sarcoma on his face was slow. He was the second-ranked figure of this violent group. He was called one-armed.

“Shut up!” Bone’s expression darkened as his eagle-like eyes glared fiercely at his one arm. One-armed retreated embarrassedly, but his gaze flickered and he secretly made up his mind.

Bones had seen the expression on Xiao Nan’s face many times. This was an expression that only those who had died in their hearts would have. Growing up as an abandoned infant, he felt the same way about Xiao Nan. However, as the leader of a violent group, he could not violate the law of the jungle. Increasing the rations for three days to a week was already the greatest help he had given Little Nan and Little Ya.

“Brother Xiao Nan, I don’t want you to die. Don’t leave me alone!” Although Little Ya was young, she was already sensible enough to survive in a place like Meteor Street. Immediately realizing that Xiao Nan wanted to trade her for a chance to survive at his own expense, he immediately sobbed and hugged Xiao Nan’s arm tightly.

“One-armed!” Bone turned around and shouted.

“Hehe!” Hearing the boss’s greeting, a sinister smile appeared on his ugly one-armed face. He walked out from the crowd, stretched out his thick right arm, opened his praying fan hand, and pinched towards Xiao Nan’s slender neck.

“Bang!” At this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded from the open space.

“En!” Along with the gunshots, there was a muffled snort. A bloody hole appeared in the palm of his one-armed right palm and he was bleeding profusely.

“Who?” A glimmer of light flashed through Bone’s eyes. The originally scattered and lazy violent gangs also stood up. Their faces revealed fierce expressions as they looked in a certain direction.

“The two of them, I want them.” Qin Lun smiled warmly as he slowly walked into the open space from afar. The salute from the angel in his right hand was still emitting a trace of smoke.

Just now, Qin Lun had been hiding in the dark to observe the situation here, and the results of his observation surprised him a little. Most of the members of this violence group led by bones were deformed people with incomplete bodies, including their leader, the skeleton-like bone.

However, this understanding made Qin Lun even more cautious.

Meteor Street’s living conditions were extremely harsh, and it wasn’t surprising for newborns to have various deformities. However, the fact that these abnormal children were able to survive in Meteor Street and grow into adults speaks volumes. If it weren’t for the fact that they possessed more powerful abilities than normal people, they would have died long ago and become the “rations” of the rest of the population.

This was not just saying that poor mountains and wicked waters gave rise to troubles for the people. The harsher the living conditions, the more likely it would be to have strong folk customs, not to mention Meteor Street, which was filled with violent gangs. Even if Qin Lunyi was bold, he still had deep concerns about interfering with the lives of the two of them.

Although it was very likely that Xiao Nan and the other two were mission clues arranged for him by the Broken Star System, Qin Lun also had to consider whether it was worth angering this violent guild. However, when he saw that the leader of the violence group seemed to have sympathy for Xiao Nan and the other two, he decided to intervene to save the orphans.

“Who are you?” Bone glanced at the angel salute in Qin Lun’s right hand, his sharp gaze fixed on the young man like a razor.

“They attacked me just now.” Qin Lun didn’t say much and looked at the bones calmly.

Qin Lun’s words caused a commotion in the violence group. Many malicious gazes focused on the young man’s face. With a command from Bone, they immediately attacked. On the other hand, the two orphans calmed down. Xiao Nan’s expression was numb as he hugged Xiao Ya and slowly pushed her away, giving way to the center of the arena.

The violent groups on Meteor Street were very united. Although they had forced Xiao Nan and the others into desperate straits just now, they would not watch Qin Lun take them away helplessly. A violent group without a backbone was not a good violent group, and Meteor Street had no room for such a violent group to survive.

Looking at Qin Lun who was not far away, a cunning and fierce light flashed in his one-armed eyes. His bloody right palm quietly reached behind him and pulled out a thick iron rod. The iron rod was covered in dark red marks. These were not rust, but blood stains that had seeped into the iron rod over the years.

“Hu!” One-armed, unusually thick right arm swung an iron rod and silently smashed it at the back of Qin Lun’s head.

“Stop!” The one-armed sneak attack was too sudden. When the corner of Bone’s eyes noticed it, it was already a little late. The skinny leader’s expression immediately changed.

The one-armed man heard the leader’s shout, but it made him even more dissatisfied. The strength of the iron rod was even more intense. Previously, his favoritism towards Xiao Nan was fine, but now that he was facing an outsider and was trying to stop him, he could only cause one-armed rebellion.

At this moment, the one-armed man even made up his mind to challenge Bone’s position as the leader once this matter was over.

However, apart from complaining, one-armed didn’t notice anything. Bone’s shout wasn’t actually directed at him, because even now, the leader of the Violence Group was still staring at the outsider.

The smile on Qin Lun’s face was the same as before, but a trace of violence flashed through the depths of his pupils. The Evil Dagger slid down from his sleeve and quietly fell into his left palm.

One-armed only felt his eyes flash, and the young man who had just stood in front of him suddenly disappeared. One-armed was shocked. His right hand paused, and the iron rod that was swinging empty was forcefully turned around by him, sweeping across half a circle in front of him. He had plenty of combat experience. If he failed to sneak attack, he knew that he was in danger. Now, he didn’t want to injure the enemy, he just wanted to protect himself.

A trace of novelty appeared in Qin Lun’s eyes, but his subordinates did not show mercy. The black light of the Evil Dagger flashed and lightly tapped on his right shoulder.

“Pu!” A bloody arrow was marked on the shoulder of one arm. The thick right arm hung down softly, and the iron rod dropped to the ground.

Qin Lun’s attack was successful, but there was no complacent expression on his face. Instead, he became even more serious. He flew up and kicked his one-armed butt, causing the sturdy man to lose his balance. He staggered and fell out, blocking the flying bones.

Bone had been staring at him. The moment Qin Lun attacked, the leader of the Violence Group had also activated it. He didn’t even look at his one arm. He raised his right foot and stepped on the strong man’s abdomen.

A ruthless expression appeared on his one-armed face. Not only did he not avoid the trampling of the bones, he instead pounced forward, his body shortened by half, and he purposely placed his injured shoulder under the feet of the bones.

Bone seemed to know that one arm would do this, and his right foot became heavier and heavier as he stepped on his shoulder. The bloody hole on his right shoulder once again marked out a blood arrow. The burly man’s eyes were completely red as he roared wildly. He straightened his upper body and sent the bone out.

A skeleton with a rib-shaped body had astonishing agility. With the help of one arm, it sprinted towards Qin Lun like a spring. His hands were like eagle claws. His sharp fingernails flickered with a dark light under the sunlight and fiercely grabbed Qin Lun’s throat and heart.

The two main and deputy leaders of the Violent Corps, who were at odds with each other, unexpectedly put aside their distracting thoughts and completed a set of combined attacks with incomparable tacit understanding.

The smile on Qin Lun’s face finally disappeared. He took a side step and avoided the bone grabbing the right hand of his throat. He raised his right arm and clamped the bone’s left arm under his armpit.

“Kacha!” A crisp sound of a bone fracture rang out. The left arm of the bone started from the elbow and twisted backwards in a posture that normal people did not possess, revealing a white bone stubble.

However, the bones didn’t seem to feel any pain at all. Eagle-like sharp eyes flickered, and the right hand that was grabbing Qin Lun’s throat suddenly swelled. With a flip of his wrist, his sharp fingernails ruthlessly stabbed into Qin Lun’s left temple.

Qin Lun’s eyes were filled with ferocity as he tilted his head away from the bone’s claws. He raised his left knee and fiercely pressed it against his abdomen, sending him flying.
