Chapter 323 I've Got You All Done
After confiscating the weapons from Zhao Lei's convoy, the thugs, led by Zhao Lei, marched in a large group towards Raccoon City.
More than sixty rioters, traveling in a dozen or so dilapidated cars, mingled with Zhao Lei's convoy, raising clouds of dust.
Jason sat next to Zhao Lei, legs crossed, a cigarette dangling from somewhere in his mouth.
How many people are there in Raccoon City?
"More than a thousand." Zhao Lei just made up a number.
"Over a thousand?" Jason raised an eyebrow. "That's quite a lot. What about the weapons? How many?"
"Quite a lot."
"How much is 'most'?"
"More than you guys," Zhao Lei replied, looking rather dim-witted.
"Hmph, so what if they have more than us?"
Jason curled his lip indifferently.
"No matter how many weapons you have, if the people aren't capable, it's all for naught."
"Look at you, I put a knife to your throat and you surrendered obediently. I bet all of you did the same."
Zhao Lei didn't say anything.
In reality, he had already sentenced these people to death in his heart.
This bunch of rabble thinks they can take over Raccoon City?
They really don't know how to write the word "death"!
Just as he was thinking this, Jason's voice rang out again:
"Brother, don't blame me for being blunt, but these days, there are only two kinds of people who can survive in this world."
You either have to be ruthless or cowardly. And you...
It's clearly the latter.
"Hmm," Zhao Lei responded without arguing.
"What, am I wrong?"
Yes. You're absolutely right.
Jason nodded in satisfaction and then asked, "Who's in charge at your base?"
"Someone surnamed Lin."
"Someone surnamed Lin? What's his background?"
"Nothing special. Just... an ordinary person."
As Zhao Lei said this, a barely perceptible sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.
He's right to say Lin Fan is an ordinary person; at least on the surface, he's just an ordinary young man.
Of course, this young man was just an ordinary person who could take on hundreds of mutated beasts by himself.
An ordinary person who can smash the head of an eight-meter-tall bear.
An ordinary person who brought back six nuclear warheads as souvenirs.
Very ordinary.
"Ordinary people? That makes things even easier."
Jason patted the machete in his hand. "Once we get into the city, we'll take control of that guy surnamed Lin first, and the others will naturally behave themselves."
Zhao Lei: "..."
Okay then. Whatever makes you happy.
The convoy continued on its way.
When they were less than five kilometers from Raccoon City, Zhao Lei noticed that Jason's expression had changed.
I wasn't nervous, but rather increasingly excited.
"See that?" Jason pointed to the faint outline of a city in the distance. "Is that Raccoon City?"
"right."
"Is there a wall around it?"
"have."
How tall?
"About seven or eight meters."
"This is indeed a pretty good safe zone," Jason muttered to himself. "Once I take it over, this will be my territory."
Zhao Lei glanced at him, thinking to himself, "You should just take it first."
He ignored the other person.
Such a person deserves to die.
……
However, just as the convoy approached Raccoon City, lookouts on the outer watchtowers of Raccoon City also spotted the situation on the road.
He held up his binoculars and saw a long line of unfamiliar vehicles following Zhao Lei's convoy, and there were clearly many unfamiliar faces mixed in with Zhao Lei's convoy.
Something's not right.
He immediately picked up the walkie-talkie.
"Command post, command post, this is watchtower number three."
Captain Zhao's convoy returned, but it was followed by a large number of unidentified vehicles and personnel, suggesting they had been hijacked.
There was a two-second silence on the walkie-talkie.
"Received. I will monitor the situation closely and report to my superiors immediately."
……
Second floor of the municipal building.
Lin Fan was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, holding a document in his hand, looking at it with great boredom.
The owl sat opposite, reporting on the recent patrol situation.
"...Nothing unusual on the western defense line. A few lone mutated wild boars were found in the south and have been dealt with. As for the north—"
Just then, the communicator on Night Owl's body suddenly beeped.
Night Owl quickly answered the call, listened for a few seconds, and then frowned slightly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fan asked, puzzled.
"Something happened to Zhao Lei. It seems he and his convoy were hijacked by a group of thugs. They're heading towards the base now."
"Hmm?" Lin Fan was slightly surprised upon hearing this. "They've been taken hostage? With their strength... who could take them hostage?"
"I don't know. The watchtower reported that there were about sixty or seventy people, with average armament. They probably wanted to use Zhao Lei and his group to infiltrate. I suspect that Zhao Lei is up to no good."
"That's possible."
Lin Fan, considering Zhao Lei's personality, figured it was highly likely that the kid was trying to trick those people, so he immediately said to Night Owl, "Okay, you handle this."
"Me?" Night Owl was taken aback. "You're not going?"
"What am I going there for? Just a group of ordinary people."
"..."
Night Owl's lips twitched, and he cursed inwardly, "You're so easy."
However, he didn't say much, stood up and walked out.
As he reached the door, Lin Fan called out to him again.
"Night Owl"
"Um?"
"Don't kill too many," Lin Fan said. "Keep the survivors for work. That underground warehouse is short of labor."
"..."
Night Owl glanced back at Lin Fan.
This guy must be a shrew!
"understood."
He didn't say much, turned around and left.
……
Ten minutes later.
Raccoon City North Gate.
Night Owl stood inside the city gate with more than twenty armed men.
Night Owl gave an order into the walkie-talkie.
"Have the pet squad prepare. Position themselves in ambush on both sides of the city gate. Do not move without my order."
"clear."
Following his order, another group of people quickly drove over from the stadium.
After these people got off the trucks, they opened the back of the trucks, and the next moment, one figure after another quickly disappeared into the shadows of the surrounding buildings. A dozen mutated beasts silently lurked into position.
There are mutated wolves, mutated lynxes, and even two mutated bears that aren't too big.
These are all mutated pets that the base has successfully tamed in the past two days.
Their loyalty is currently impossible to estimate, but their combat prowess is undeniable.
After Night Owl and his men were in position, they walked to the city gate.
He stood there at the open city gate, arms crossed, coldly watching the approaching convoy in the distance.
Armed men lined up behind them.
The gun was pointed downwards, but it could be raised at any time.
……
As time went on, the convoy that had kidnapped Zhao Lei arrived at the base.
Upon seeing Night Owl and his group at the gate, the convoy stopped a hundred meters away. The next moment, a bald man jumped off the lead car.
Jason jumped out of the car and subconsciously looked at the Raccoon City gate in front of him.
A strange wall several meters high, an iron gate, and watchtowers on both sides.
A group of people were standing at the city gate.
The leader was a man dressed in black, lean and expressionless.
"Who is he?" Jason asked Zhao Lei, turning around.
"Night Owl. The base's security chief."
"Him?" Jason scoffed. "He doesn't look like much."
He then strode forward, followed by more than twenty thugs.
The remaining thugs stayed behind to guard Zhao Lei's men.
"Hey!" Jason yelled at Night Owl, "Your men are in my hands!"
He pointed to Zhao Lei and the others who were being held captive behind him.
"If you know what's good for you, surrender now and open the city gates to let us in! Otherwise—"
He drew his machete and brandished it in the air.
"I wouldn't mind losing a few heads in your men."
Night Owl looked at him.
Not a word.
Jason felt a little uneasy under his gaze, but he still forced himself to maintain his composure.
"What? Can't you understand human language? I'll say it—"
"I heard you." Night Owl spoke before the other party could press the "forgive me" button.
But his voice was somewhat calm, and somewhat cold.
"so what?"
"So?" Jason was bewildered by this reaction. "Your men are in my hands, and this is your attitude?"
"So what?" Night Owl glanced at Zhao Lei and the others, his gaze as if their lives or deaths had nothing to do with him.
"you……"
The bald man was completely unprepared for such an answer and was momentarily speechless. After a long pause, he angrily shouted,
"Damn it, don't you care whether your men live or die? You really think I won't kill them?"
"Kill them?"
Night Owl glanced at Zui, too lazy to waste any more words on the brainless bald man in front of him, and instead turned his head and said a single word to the person behind him.
"put."
???
The bald man was somewhat bewildered by his actions.
But the next second, when he saw the figure darting out from the shadows on both sides of the city gate, he was completely dumbfounded.
In an instant, a chilling sensation shot from the soles of his feet straight to his head.
He almost urinated out of his bladder.
he……
What the hell did he see?
He actually saw a wolf, a gray mutated wolf, a whole size larger than a normal wolf, with eyes that glowed with an eerie green light.
Then he saw more.
Mutant lynx, mutant bear.
Several mutated beasts he couldn't name charged out of the city gate and rushed towards them...
"Holy crap, it's a mutated beast?!"
"Shoot! Shoot! Shoot the fuck now!"
Upon seeing the mutated beast suddenly charge out, the thugs panicked completely.
Gunshots rang out.
But the mutant beast was too fast; bullets simply couldn't catch it.
A mutated wolf pounced on the foremost thug, biting his shoulder and throwing him off balance.
The mutated lynx was even more agile, weaving through the crowd, and with each leap, someone screamed and fell to the ground.
