Chapter 168 Killing and Robing
As expected, Wang Feng heard people fighting from far away in an hour after dark, which suggested that someone started to kill others for food.
Though he couldn’t see them clearly with the limited X-ray vision, he didn’t want to leave there to explore.
Like everyone, he also yielded to hunger, but it was not the best time to fight. When everyone had collected adequate food, he could manage getting some from them.
That mission only asked them to stay there for seven whole days. Wang Feng did not want to be eliminated or to prematurely expose his ability.
The battles never stopped. At midnight, Wang Feng could smell the blood in the air. Obviously, the night was not so tender for the people who stayed there, for some were injured, and maybe some had already died.
The clock ticked away. Around three o’clock in the morning, suddenly, Wang Feng, who was nodding off slightly changed his expression and slowly opened his eyes.
About a dozen meters away in front of him, two people were fleeing fast ahead, while three men were chasing them relentlessly, resulting in a big noise.
With X-ray vision, Wang Feng was surprised by the two escaping people for they were not men, but the only two women in the team, Dongfang Yu’er and Zhong Xiaoqian.
They were close friends, so they chose to stay together even under that situation, but they were eventually targeted by others who aimed for their food.
Everyone was equal there, all striving for joining the Dragon Spirit Squad, so no one would protect them. Instead, they were more likely to kill them.
They were badly injured by the three men who were chasing behind.
Moreover, at that time, nobody would save them. How could a man invite troubles when he could hardly look after himself? After all, life counted above all else.
“Yu’er, let’s fight with them.” In the forests, Zhong Xiaoqian said with her hand on her bleeding abdomen.
They originally hid in a secret place. However, they were found by three men who teamed up. Although they escaped and drew away with the enemy, both of them were seriously injured. If they continued running, they would be caught sooner or later.
They’d rather fight with the enemy than fleeing desperately and exhausting their strength. Maybe they could fight their way out.
“Don’t say that, just run. Obviously, they want to kill us. If we stop here, we will die.” Dongfang Yu’er said with a quite calm face while she knew that they would possibly die there.
Along the way, they also met other people, but those who had admired them before now chose to avoid, with no intention of helping them at all.
They just loved their appearance, which was unworthy of mentioning compared with their own future.
Beautiful women were countless in the world. As long as they joined the Dragon Spirit Squad, all kinds of beauties would come for them.
At that time, they were benevolent and righteous enough for they didn’t attack women.
“No, we can’t escape. We are soldiers. I’d rather die in a vigorous battle than by exhaustion. I will not run away any more.” Zhong Xiaoqian said, giving off a sense of determination.
She was a beauty, but she had become a solider the day she joined the army who would not escape death just beacuse of fear.
“Xiaoqian, you...” Seeing Zhong Xiaoqian stopped, Dongfang Yu’er couldn’t continue running no matter how much she wanted, for she would never leave Xiaoqian alone.
“Yu’er, run! I will block them for you.” Zhong Xiaoqian firmly said.
“We joined the army together, so I won’t leave now. I will share life and death with you.” Dongfang Yu’er shouted and then stood next to Zhong Xiaoqian.
Although they were women, they were definitely not the kind of people who cravenly clung to life instead of braving death. Otherwise, they would not have joined the army.
“Weren’t they running away?” The three soldiers soon caught up and were surprised to see that they were still waiting for them.
The three men were about to give up chasing. After all, they were not the strongest team among all of the soldiers. If someone got in the way, they might lose their food instead of robbing others; at that time, their loss would outweigh the gain.
“Why should we escape? You’ll only get our food over our dead bodies.” Zhong Xiaoqian said in a firm tone.
“Yes. You’re getting nothing from us. We’d rather feed a dog than give it to you.” Dongfang Yu’er added.
“Haha, good.” Hearing what they said, one of the three men suddenly laughed and said, “No wonder you are elites. But since you said so, don’t expect mercy from me out there.”
While speaking, the other two men tacitly outflanked them in no time, to block their way.
It seemed that those guys left no chance for them to live through that.
“Are we gonna die?” Looking at them, Dongfang Yu’er could not help but fall into despair. Now since everyone obeyed the primitive law of the jungle, they would fight for survival. Anyway, anyone could possibly die there, but no one had the right to overrule the Dragon Spirit Squad and avenge them.
That was the reason why all people there made unbridled attacks on each other. After all, the Dragon Spirit Squad would assume the responsibility.
“Give us your food, dear. I will think about letting you go.” Looking at his men who had surrounded the two beautiful women, the leader showed a slight smile.
They could easily defeat two women without any effort, just like catching two rats in the hole.
“Stop dreaming! You can’t get anything from us unless we die.” Zhong Xiaoqian blew a raspberry for she would not budge on her stance.
“Xiaoqian, we may die today, but don’t be afraid. You have me, I will die with you.” Dongfang Yu’er said, standing back to back with Zhong Xiaoqian.
“I will never be afraid; I will kill them before we die.” Zhong Xiaoqian decided to put up a desperate fight; a menacing sense pervaded her whole being.
They were impelled to conquer or die. At any rate, there could be no going back.
“I had decided to let you go, but you are really ungrateful. Go die now!” The leader finally ordered since they left no room for compromise.
“Well... three men picking on two women. Shame on you!” Just as the three men were about to attack, suddenly a voice came from above. Then, all the gazes fell on an unexpected man who jumped down from a big tree.
Indeed, he had jumped directly from the top of the tree, which was at least ten meters high. Didn’t he worry about falling to his death?
However, what really surprised them was that they didn’t even notice how long the young man had been there, for he made no sound at all.
“It’s you.” Not only the three soldiers were shocked to see the man in front of them, but also the two beautiful women. Dongfang Yu’er and Zhong Xiaoqian stared at him in amazement, for it was hard to believe that they could meet him there.
Surely, the man was Wang Feng. Originally Wang Feng did not want to help them, but would be too cruel of him if he stood by and watched two beauties being killed in front of him. What’s more, Dongfang Yu’er taught him how to shoot yesterday. Anyway, Wang Feng could not watch them be killed, could he?
There weren’t too many beautiful women in China, not to mention the top-grade beauty such as Dongfang Yu’er. Her death would be a great loss for the entire world.
“What are you doing here?” Dongfang Yu’er shouted to Wang Feng, because she didn’t know what was Wang Feng’s ultimate aim.
“Of course I’m here to save you. What else can I do here?” Wang Feng sulkily glanced at Dongfang Yu’er and then he gazed at the three soldiers and said with a smile, “Brothers, I think you must be hungry. Since that’s the case, how about I give you my food and you let us go?”
Dongfang Yu’er scornfully reversed her thought about Wang Feng being a real man, due to his complaisant words. How could a soldier fear death like him?
“I know you’re Wang Feng who won first place twice. But today you are not our target, so you’d better go away.” The soldier fearlessly glanced at Wang Feng though he was also shocked by his performance.
They had gone there with no guns. What if you were a sharpshooter? Plus the results of the first two tests were much different from the actual combat ability, so the man naturally didn’t take Wang Feng too seriously.
Did he look like a fool who would be moved by a tiny bit of food?
“What if I refuse?” Hearing the man’s words, Wang Feng smilingly said.
“Then you die here too!” With that, the man’s malevolent face twisted and attacked Wang Feng at once.
He acted so fast that if Wang Feng were an ordinary man, he would be crippled or dead. However, the man had looked down on him. How could Wang Feng give his food to others? That’s was a joke.
Wang Feng indeed stood in front of him, but when his fist attacked him, he suddenly panicked, because he had not touched anything but directly passed through Wang Feng’s body.
The man who stood in front of him was just a shadow. He hadn’t touched even Wang Feng’s clothes.
Though he realized that he was trapped, it was too late.
