Mechanical Flesh - Chapter4

The dust from the pickup truck slowly settled down, and more and more Wilderness Hunters returned from their hunt.

Compared to the fear they had for the people in the pickup truck, the town's guards were not too polite to the other Wilderness Hunters.

Blackstone Town was located at the border between the Black Steel Shelter and the Quicksand Shelter. It did not have its own stance, nor did it have any real enemies. There was only one type of danger that needed to be taken care of, and that was the polluters mixed in with the crowd.

The Polluters were a powerful source of pollution. Once they entered the town, the entire town would face the threat of pollution and mutation.

One of the guards pointed his gun at a Wilderness Hunter with disheveled hair and shouted, "Raise your head!

"Raise your head, lift your hair, and reveal your face!"

Qi Yuan noticed that the Wilderness Hunter who was being pointed at by a gun suddenly tensed up. Although his body was thin under his tattered clothes, he had well-defined muscles, like a cheetah ready to pounce.

This was a body with powerful explosive power, a sensitive and dangerous Wilderness Hunter.

Facing the Wilderness Hunter's reaction, the two guards did not care at all. Their fingers were already on the trigger, ready to fire at any time.

Hunters who dared to hunt in the wilderness were mostly arrogant and unyielding. However, in front of Black Stone Town, be it Supers or genetic warriors, they had to lower their arrogant heads.

This was not only because the watchtower at the border of the town had a heavy weapon that could tear Zerg to pieces — Metal Storm. It was also because the town's leader, Stu, had already stepped into Grade 2 and had a powerful Skull Crusher.

The guard on the watchtower noticed the movement at the door. The black muzzle of the Metal Storm turned and locked onto the target at the door.

The surrounding Wilderness Hunters all moved away, afraid that they would be engulfed by the terrifying firepower of the Metal Storm.

No one could block the terrifying power of the Metal Storm. At least, there was no such powerful existence in Black Stone Town.

The Wilderness Hunter who was locked onto by the Metal Storm trembled slightly. Before the guard lost his last bit of patience, she finally raised her head and used a stiff movement to pull back her hair, unexpectedly revealing a delicate and pretty face!

The guard at the door was also stunned for a moment before he laughed out loud.

"Haha!

Hahahaha!

It's actually a woman! "

The guard's laughter drew the attention of the other hunters around him. Due to the differences in their body structure, female hunters were a rare sight.

One of the guards was obviously tempted. He reached out and touched her face, leaving a black mark. Just as he was about to touch her chest, another guard pulled him back and whispered something in his ear. Only then did he resentfully withdraw his hand and move out of the way.

The woman put down her messy hair to cover her face and walked past the two of them into the town. Before she walked through the gate, the guard who tried to take advantage of her shouted at her back.

"Little girl, if you're short of money, you can come and find me. I like little wild cats like you very much!"

The woman did not stop and soon disappeared into the small town.

The brief commotion soon subsided, and the hunters once again gathered at the entrance. Qi Yuan noticed that although the guards were arrogant, they had different attitudes towards different people.

To the hunters who came empty-handed, the guards were arrogant and unscrupulous. To the hunters who had a strong aura or returned with the carcass of a bug beast, the guards were obviously much more restrained. This was the most basic respect for strength.

Qi Yuan walked to the gate. When the guards saw the gun on his back, their gazes were obviously a little strange.

His combat uniform was stained with dark blood and emitted a rancid smell. There was a pistol at his waist and a bag soaked in blood. He also had two rifles and an AK on his back. He did not look like a hunter at all. He looked more like a scavenger on the battlefield.

More importantly, this person looked unfamiliar. He did not match the hunters in their memories. He should be a newcomer.

Blackstone Town did not reject newcomers, but it was not friendly to them either. This was especially true for the town's only Class 2 Extraordinaire, Xu Kui. After controlling a powerful Class 2 bug beast, the town was even more unfriendly to strangers.

Extorting money from newcomers had become one of the main sources of income for these guards.

Two guards surrounded Qi Yuan at the same time. The muzzles of their guns were slightly raised, vaguely aiming at him.

"Where did you get these guns?" One of the guards asked with a faint smile.

"I picked them up from a corpse," Qi Yuan said calmly.

One of the guards' nose twitched slightly, as if he was trying to distinguish a smell.

The other guard used the muzzle of his gun to poke the bag at Qi Yuan's waist and scolded, "Open the bag.

You're not allowed to bring in contraband. "

The way to deal with contraband that could not be brought in was to confiscate it.

Qi Yuan remained calm in the face of the guard's provocation. Steel Defense could withstand the old rifles in the guard's hands, but it definitely could not withstand the sweeping of the metal storm.

To withstand such a terrifying weapon, one would need at least a Class 3 defensive ability or two Class 2 defensive abilities stacked together. Only then would there be a slight chance of success.

Qi Yuan glanced at him and moved his hands to his waist. Just as he was about to open the bag, the sniffling guard suddenly saw a streak of white stained with blood from the corner of his eye. It was a sharp fang. After piercing through the bag, a section of it was revealed.

His expression suddenly changed. The arrogance on his face quickly dissipated, turning into a kind of bewilderment.

"There's no problem with the item. You can go in!"

The guard lowered his head slightly and lowered the muzzle of his gun to make a path. At the same time, he pulled his confused companion to the side, not allowing him to continue making things difficult.

Qi Yuan glanced at the guard and did not say a word. He slowly walked past the two of them.

Only when Qi Yuan was far away did the guard with his head lowered let out a long sigh of relief.

"What's going on?

Could he be an Evolver like that woman? "the other guard asked softly.

"I don't know."

The guard with his head lowered shook. "But this person is definitely more dangerous than most of the Wilderness Hunters in town."

"How do you know?

He's just a newcomer. How do you know he's dangerous? "

"If you know what's in his bag, you'll know why!" The guard with his head lowered sighed.

"Rotwolves!

His bag contains the claws and fangs of Rotwolves!

He's a Wilderness Hunter who can hunt Rotwolves alone! "

"Rotwolves!"

The guard's eyes twitched. He was obviously a little scared. A Wilderness Hunter who could hunt such Insectoid Beasts was indeed dangerous. He was not someone a gatekeeper like them could make things difficult for.

"You saved my life this time!"

The guard also recalled the familiar rancid smell. It was the smell of the Rotten Wolf. He took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it over, and whispered, "You're right.

"Brother Tiger, your eyesight is better than mine. I'll need your help in the future to avoid stepping on landmines!"

The guard called Brother Tiger blew out a smoke ring and signaled the Wilderness Hunter who had entered the door to leave quickly. He then nodded and said self-deprecatingly.

"Our little salary is only enough to fill our stomachs. If we didn't get some extra money from these newcomers, we would've starved to death long ago. But recently, more and more ruthless people have come, and it's getting harder and harder to get the money."

"If I'm not wrong, based on the size of the bag on that person's waist, there should be two Rotwolves inside."

"Hey, in the whole of Blackstone Town, there are originally no more than five people who can hunt two Rotwolves alone. Ever since Xu Kui took control of the Black Scorpion, the number of ruthless people has more than doubled."

"Is Blackstone Town going to change?" the guard said with some fear.

"Keep your voice down. Although the Black Scorpion controlled by Xu Kui is powerful, Chief Situ is not weak either. The Metal Storm on the sentry post is firmly controlled by Chief Situ's men. Even if Xu Kui can get some helpers, he might not dare to offend Chief Situ."
