Chapter 775: Tragic snowflakes
When Ren Xiaosu saw the Pyro Company’s logo, he roughly understood why Wang Congyang was being pursued.
After all, Ren Xiaosu was not forgetful to the point he wouldn’t know what he had done.
But he did not expect there to actually be a T5 combatant among the Pyro Company’s convoy that was pursuing Wang Congyang.
Even for the Pyro Company, T5 combatants were a very valuable asset. More than a dozen of them had probably been killed in the Sacred Mountains. But they even sent out a T5 combatant to hunt down Wang Congyang. It could be seen how much emphasis the Pyro Company placed on capturing him.
They saw the T5 combatant dashing madly through the wilderness. His shirt gradually burned to nothing and exposed his dark grayish skin. He had a look like he had been smoked on a grill.
His hair and eyebrows were burnt off, and it looked like a hairless hound had just crawled out of hell.
However, this T5 combatant was no longer targeting Wang Congyang. He had turned his sights to Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin!
Yang Xiaojin asked, “Should I use the black bullet? He can’t avoid it since he has to take so ti to make a turn at the speed he’s going.”
Ren Xiaosu felt a pain in his heart. “Ahem, you can take a break first. Let’s not use the black bullet yet. I don’t want you to get exhausted.”
Yang Xiaojin covered her mouth and nearly burst out laughing. She always enjoyed seeing Ren Xiaosu try to make up so dignified excuse when he was obviously just stingy.
A mont later, Ren Xiaosu jumped out from behind the mound and rushed straight for the T5 combatant.
With just a slight calculation of Ren Xiaosu’s speed, the T5 combatant sneered on the inside. When he realized the human in front of him would not be a match for him, he even gave a slight smirk at the thought of it.
A sniper had actually given up on what he was best at to fight him in close combat? What else could he be other than suicidal?
But even if the sniper were to use his sniper rifle, it would be useless. He was already within a 100 ters of him. No matter how good the two snipers’ marksmanship was, not even the gods could save them now!
Then the T5 combatant noticed from the corner of his eye that the steam locomotive he had been chasing for two days had co to a stop a distance away.
The T5 combatant was puzzled. Why had the other party stopped fleeing? Was he not afraid he would continue pursuing him after getting rid of these two?
But he did not have ti to think about that. The T5 combatant looked seriously at the oncoming Ren Xiaosu and thought the young man was pretty brave. He even dared to take on a T5 combatant like him single-handedly.
As he was thinking, the T5 combatant was knocked into the air by “Old Xu,” who had appeared out of nowhere.
The huge collision force from the side left the T5 combatant at a loss. His entire body started twisting at this mont, and he completed three full turns in midair. This was followed by the sound of a sniper rifle.
While the T5 combatant was in midair, he saw a young girl pulling the trigger. However, he felt that as long as he could quickly dodge, the bullet could not get to him.
But in fact, Yang Xiaojin had fired three shots in a row. Even though the T5 combatant was spinning rapidly in midair after being knocked into the air by Old Xu, every bullet landed in the sa wound.
The three bullets pierced right through the T5 combatant!
The T5 combatant fell to the ground like a tattered cloth bag. Ren Xiaosu dusted off the nonexistent dust from his hands when he saw that the T5 combatant was dead. “These T5s seem quite stupid. They just don’t seem to understand that all is fair in war. Did they sacrifice a portion of their intelligence on the path of evolution?”
“That’s possible.” Yang Xiaojin put away her weapon and got up. “They’re different from supernatural beings since they rely on external factors to evolve, so there might be so repercussions. But most supernatural beings who encounter them will still end up in a tragic state.”
Ren Xiaosu looked at the steam locomotive that was parked in the distant wilderness. Wang Congyang was inside that train, and it seed as though he was about to run away again at any mont.
“Why didn’t that guy take the opportunity to escape?” Ren Xiaosu wondered.
He heard Wang Congyang shout, “It was you who caused the Pyro Company to go all out to pursue , right?!”
Ren Xiaosu was stunned for a mont. How did Wang Congyang guess? He hollered back, “Wait, I can justify myself!”
Wang Congyang was surprised.
He nearly spat blood out of the train window. He yelled at Ren Xiaosu, “After I t you at Stronghold 73 when the cave-in happened, the Pyro Company started coming after . After I t you again in the Sacred Mountains this ti, the Pyro Company imdiately upped my wanted level on their wanted list. I find it very hard to believe that this is rely a coincidence!”
Although Wang Congyang still did not know what was going on or what had happened, he suddenly gained the ability to conjure an additional black cauldron after leaving Stronghold 73. He was even wanted by the Pyro Company back then. Now that sothing similar had happened again, and his black cauldron had also beco bigger, he knew this was definitely not a coincidence!
At that ti, he felt that sothing was amiss. Since Xu Xianchu also had a black cauldron, how did he end up having the sa power as him? Sothing must have gone wrong sowhere.
And wasn’t carrying the black cauldron a taphor for taking the rap for soone? This was as straightforward as it could get. All that was lacking was expressing it explicitly.
Xu Xianchu was probably unaware of the origins of his black cauldron and might even feel pleased about getting a new power, but how could Wang Congyang not have thought of it?
Ren Xiaosu thought for a mont and said, “It really has nothing to do with !”
Wang Congyang slowly cald down. “Regardless of whether you admit it or not, I already have a rough idea of what happened. Although I don’t know how you did it, I hereby formally apologize to you. As the saying goes, ‘An eye for an eye makes the world go blind.’ Why don’t we turn our hostility into friendship? You can just continue on your path, and I’ll continue providing my delivery services! I didn’t have a choice in the past, but now I just want to be a good person!”
These were Wang Congyang’s heartfelt words. He really did not want to get involved in those strange matters anymore. He already had enough money to spend, yet he was still being hunted by enemies every day. Who could he go and reason with?!
Ren Xiaosu gave it so thought and replied, “And what if I say no? You’ve found trouble with on more than one occasion, haven’t you?”
Wang Congyang nearly broke down. “Why would you say no? Didn’t you kill my cousin as well? Actually, I didn’t have a good relationship with that cousin of mine. Do you rember when I went to search your house for the first ti? I even said that it would be great if you were a soldier under . You’re much more capable than those good-for-nothings. In fact, I didn’t have any intention of killing you back then.”
Ren Xiaosu raised his eyebrows. “You still think that you’re innocent?”
Wang Congyang said resentfully, “Hold it right there. I know that each snowflake in an avalanche pleads not guilty, but you still can’t single out one snowflake and beat it to death!”
A gust of cold wind blew through the wilderness. Other than the sound of the wind, nothing could be heard.
Yang Xiaojin, who was standing off to the side, suddenly said, “You might have misunderstood. Ren Xiaosu isn’t singling you out.”
Wang Congyang was stunned. “Then what?”
Yang Xiaojin said in an exceptionally serious tone, “He’s gonna beat every single snowflake to death.”
Ren Xiaosu was speechless.
A cloud of black smoke suddenly spewed out of the steam locomotive’s smokestack. Wang Congyang was choosing to leave imdiately! It would not be wise to stay here any longer!
Yang Xiaojin looked curiously at Ren Xiaosu. “Did I scare him off?”
