Armor-Piercing Munition: Face Me, Carbon-Based Monster! Chapter 130 - 39 Counter Ambush

As Xie Liu uttered the words "Blood Skull," the atmosphere instantly beca tense.

Everyone pulled back their rifle bolts, released the safety, and raised their guns, aiming at the residents ahead who were similarly ard.

The drone ascended, and Li Shi crouched at the front like a shield in front of Chen Jian.

The battle had entered a stage where it could erupt at any mont; any unnecessary movent from anyone would unleash a rain of iron bullets, sweeping everything into an abyss of no return.

The woman kneeling on the ground continued wailing, and from her broken words, Chen Jian roughly grasped the outline of the situation.

Monsters, Blood Skull, the kidnapped won, prolonged unconsciousness, swollen bellies, traders coming to negotiate...

Everyone there could actually guess the truth.

They surely knew that what those "traders" did resulted in this tragic outco.

However, they were powerless to resist.

The won could only hand over the children in their wombs to the traders in exchange for food, tools, and supplies for the town.

Where those children ended up, they didn’t know.

Could those who did such things truly have any pity for the babies?

Death was the most likely outco; this was why the woman wanted to entrust her child to Chen Jian’s team...

Perhaps, to her, this caravan seed at least a normal one.

Of course, it was also her last hope.

A naless anger rose within Chen Jian.

Discovering that Huadu was a city fallen due to drugs was one thing, rely touching his baseline, but what they were doing now really rubbed Chen Jian’s tolerance in the dirt.

This wicked bunch had actually gone this far...

Using living people as their "seed beds"?

Why don’t you do it yourselves?

He turned to his teammates, seeing similar expressions on their faces.

Clearly, everyone had already placed the na "Huadu" on the list.

As for when this na would be crossed off...

The sooner, the better it seed.

Quan City... doesn’t seem far either.

Chen Jian made a quiet decision, but at this mont, the problem they faced remained unsolved.

He reached out to pull the kneeling woman up, then asked:

"You know what the child you gave birth to is, right?"

The woman hesitated, shook her head first, then nodded despairingly.

She couldn’t speak a word.

She knew that from the mont the child was born, its fate was sealed.

She ought to accept this result, yet her maternal instinct made her unable to decide.

This was probably one of the weaknesses Huadu could exploit...

Seeing her action, Chen Jian took a deep breath and asked:

"The traders you ntioned, when are they coming?"

"I don’t know... but they co at least once a month."

"The last ti they ca... was just a few days ago..."

"They took away several children, one of them my sister’s child..."

"My sister... my sister chased them... but she didn’t co back..."

The woman’s voice was nearly drowned in sobs, and Chen Jian softly consoled her:

"Calm down."

"I will help you."

"Now tell , where did they co from?"

"I don’t know..."

"Think carefully! Which direction?"

Chen Jian’s tone was firm; he knew that the other party was in turmoil, and comforting or encouraging her would be useless at this point.

Only by being sufficiently forceful could she regain her composure.

Indeed, after hesitating, the woman finally said:

"Northeast... Northeast!"

"Then it’s likely Anqing."

Shen Yue interrupted:

"Though the Yangtze River Waterway isn’t particularly busy, it’s still crowded with eyes."

"If Huadu wanted to do this, they’d never risk the waterway."

"They probably established a covert transport network centered around Anqing, enveloping all surrounding settlents."

"This place is already corrupted like this, 100 kiloters from Anqing."

"Getting closer to Anqing... tsk tsk."

"My biggest hope now is that Anqing has more than just Terror Demons."

"Hopefully adding so Huadu people, otherwise I can’t let this go."

"If nothing else, encircle and strike."

Chen Jian said calmly:

"In any case, they must pay the price."

"Leaving this aside—Zeng Yi, go communicate, explain the situation to those people."

"I don’t believe all the n here are cowards; their own won desecrated like this, could they possibly see us, who want to stand up for them, as the enemy?"

"Understood."

Upon hearing Zeng Yi’s words, he shouldered his gun and walked toward the already-panicked group opposite.

A mont later, everyone hesitantly put down their guns.

As Zeng Yi led them closer to the team, Chen Jian gathered more information from them.

Huadu’s experints had actually started a long ti ago.

These won were not the first victims; in fact, so of them had fled from further east, from Wangjiang Town!

They thought leaving that town would escape Huadu’s clutches, but just two years later, that hand reached out further, extending here to Susong.

"Why not resist?"

This thought circled in Chen Jian’s mind, but the question he asked was another.

"Has anyone tried to resist?"
