Chapter 247 - 247 Fine Prey
He had a feeling that someone was trying to persuade him to apply for a card.
“Everyone, I’m sorry. We’re short on resources right now, so we don’t have much to entertain you withm” the redhead said awkwardly.
“It’s fine, it’s fine. We brought our own.”
Wang Ran took out a packet of melon seeds, a packet of peanuts, and two tomatoes from the bag behind him.
The tomatoes were for Xiaoyu and Zhou Meng.
Wang Ran, on the other hand, calmly munched on the melon seeds.
“F*ck…”
The faces of the redhead’s team twitched.
They brought their own snacks while visiting someone’s house…
No one else could do this.
“Do you guys want it?
“Feel free!”
Wang Ran threw the peanut at Redhead.
“Thank you…” Redhead said awkwardly.
As the host, he was being offered food by the guest. It was indeed quite awkward.
But…
‘This peanut brand!
‘I haven’t seen it in a long time!’
Redhead and the rest immediately divided the peanuts and began to eat.
“By the way, I heard on the radio that N-City has been unified.
“Why would you still be having zombie troubles?” Redhead asked, confused.
“Ah… It’s a long story.
“The leader of N-City is in cahoots with the zombies.
“Although we have temporarily gained peace, our days have not been good.”
Wang Ran started spouting nonsense.
Su Xiaoyu, who was standing beside them, almost burst out laughing.
“F*ck, such a thing is possible?”
Redhead and the others trembled.
They had never imagined this in their wildest dreams.
“In comparison, the environment of S-City is much better!
“The zombies have almost been wiped from S-City.
“However, there are two survivor factions in S-City that are at odds with each other. They each occupy half of the territory and are in a stalemate.
“As long as you’re not stupid enough to kick up a fuss, no one should make things too difficult for you.”
Redhead explained the situation.
“Ah, that’s right. If you’re interested, I can bring you to the camp in the east.
“As long as you offer up 20 grams of gold or a certain amount of food, they’ll accept you.
“When the time comes, the higher-ups will arrange for you to plant some sweet potatoes, potatoes, and so on. Food and clothing will not be a problem.
“It’ll be different in the other camp. You’re not allowed to retain any of your property.
“Besides, your wife and sister-in-law are beautiful. If you head there…”
Redhead didn’t continue, but everyone understood what he meant.
“Sure, take me to the eastern camp.”
Wang Ran had a rough idea in his mind.
Since there were two local forces here, and they had cleared out the zombies, this place had to have considerable strength.
If these two forces were united, they could set up a temporary line of defense here.
They would not stop the tide of zombies, but as long as they were delayed for a day, they would have served their purpose.
“Brother Hong, don’t we still have to patrol the city?
“Just tell them the address and let them go by themselves.”
A green-haired underling muttered.
“F*ck, who’s the boss here?”
Redhead looked at Greenhead with dissatisfaction.
Greenhead pouted and didn’t answer.
However, it was clear that he was not subservient to Redhead.
Redhead knew that his hold of leadership over this group was waning, so he did not push the matter.
“I’ll take you to the camp.
“I’m doing pretty well in the camp. They should be willing to accept you.
“But, don’t take out your food so easily. After all, it’s dangerous to show off your wealth in this world.”
Redhead warned Wang Ran.
Wang Ran laughed. Nowadays, a bag of peanuts could be considered as showing off one’s wealth.
However, Redhead seemed to be a good person.
He was not like his underlings, who were eyeing them with bad intentions.
“Sure, thank you.
“Come, come, come. This is a thank-you gift for you. Don’t stand on ceremony.”
Wang Ran took out a bag of beef jerky from his backpack and handed it to Redhead.
“Ah, you’re too kind.
“Then I’ll accept it.”
Redhead politely accepted the beef jerky.
He would be a fool if he didn’t.
Meanwhile, the eyes of his underlings were shining as they stared at Wang Ran’s backpack.
There must be a lot of food in there…
Greenhead exchanged glances with his other underlings and got their approval.
They had decided to strike!
They were just a few outsiders anyway, so they would not be breaking the rule against killing each other in the eastern camp.
While Redhead was chatting with Wang Ran and the others, Greenhead and a few of his underlings took out a razor-sharp razor from the barber cabinet behind them.
These long razors were extremely sharp, second only to scalpels among other tools.
It was extremely easy to slit a person’s throat.
“Let’s go!”
The Redhead stood up and prepared to lead the way.
At that moment, a flash of green darted Wang Ran, and a razor was placed on Wang Ran’s neck.
The other underlings slowly walked towards Su Xiaoyu and Zhou Meng with knives in their hands, obviously not viewing them as threats.
“What, are you offering me a shave?” Wang Ran asked calmly.
“Hahahaha, you can still joke in this situation?
“I’m not going to cut off your beard, I’m going to cut your throat!”
Greenhead felt that victory was in his hands.
He was a rank-two Awakened, so his reaction speed and strength were far superior to ordinary people.
With the razor at his neck, there was no chance of turning the tables.
“Ah Zhong, what are you doing!
“Didn’t we give up on this?”
Redhead’s expression changed.
“Do you really think you still call the shots here?
“We’ve been constantly starving under your lead!
“I’m telling you, if you know what’s good for you, fall in line.
“We’re both rank-twos. I’m not afraid of you.
“Besides, look at what our brothers think.”
Greenhead smiled.
Redhead looked around and saw that his other lackeys were all holding razors and smiling maliciously.
Nobody was on his sight.
This time, not only was it a robbery, but it was also a power struggle.
“They’re so loaded, even if we don’t slaughter them, others will!
“How is it? Are you planning to join us… Or are you going against us?”
Greenhead looked at Redhead, waiting for his response.
The camp had rules, so naturally, he did not attack him directly.
However, if Redhead was going to put up a fight, Greenhead would carry on through with it. At most, he would just push the blame to the outsider who was about to die.
