The bounty hunter had a contemptuous smile on his lips, and just as he was about to pull the trigger of his submachine gun, the liquid armor system all over his body suddenly sounded a sharp alarm.
Without looking, he subconsciously made evasive movements, and with the help of the armor system, he jumped to avoid Qi Meng's attack.
A little orange flame came to the hunter in an instant, and before he could stand still, he was engulfed by the flame.
The bounty hunter felt his body hit a wall instantly, and the huge impact caused his whole body to fly away.
The branches and leaves of the forest were flying in disorder, startling a group of sleeping birds.
Qi Meng immediately fired another shot to make sure there was no movement on the other side. He glanced at the shotgun in his hand. The energy was full again, and the cold gun body exuded a bloodthirsty color. Of course, this was not the standard equipment on the street, but his A special version of the miniature shotgun that can be obtained by spending one-half energy block on the dungeon black market. Compared with ordinary shotguns, it has better accuracy and power. It is said that it once equipped the most elite soldiers of the Guards Corps to fight against the invasion of the Oceania Clone Corps and helped the elites of the Empire to make great achievements in the North African battlefield.
Qi Meng gently touched the handle of the gun. As a senior game designer at Vine Company, in order for players to have a better gaming experience, he needs to be exposed to all kinds of real firearms. In those years, he has handled not only 800 but also a thousand firearms. Therefore, all kinds of light weapons of the empire are treasured.
"Tonight, you will be glorious again, fighting for freedom."
This shotgun has been with Qi Meng for almost a year. Ever since he walked out of the underground city and fled all the way to the northern part of the Chu region, thousands of miles away, he has relied on this weapon to kill bounty hunters several times.
This time, however, the bounty hunter escaped.
Qi Meng glanced around and carefully activated the night vision function. There was only a wild wolf running away in the thermal imaging image. Maybe the beast had sensed the breath of death.
"If you want to kill me, why hide? Or are you waiting for other hunters?"
If the other party wants to disperse and outflank, that would suit Qi Meng's wishes. He has long lost patience with these bounty hunters who are as annoying as flies. These days when he is on the run, he encounters some vulnerable opponents who are constantly consumed. His energy.
He shouted twice into the forest, but no one responded, so he immediately put away his night vision goggles, jumped onto a big tree with the help of his power armor, and stood on the treetop to look down at his surroundings.
Under night, the injured bounty hunter appeared on the mountain ridge a few kilometers away. At this moment, his footsteps were flying, and he ran away along the ridgeline.
Qi Meng gave up the pursuit. Such a weak opponent was not worth wasting his energy on.
He packed up his equipment, picked up the downed swarm aircraft on the ground, disassembled the remaining energy blocks and collected them in his backpack. He returned to Zhao Can's body, raised the shotgun and pulled the trigger. A blazing flame instantly burst out. Submerged guide.
When Zhao Can turned into a wisp of green smoke, Qi Meng followed the address he mentioned and walked 30 kilometers westward along the ridgeline to the vicinity of the guide's home.
It was a run-down town.
An aircraft of unknown age was left at the entrance. It was already rusty and its fuselage was covered with green moss.
The morning stars in the sky were covered by the gray sky. Qi Meng stood there for a moment. Fortunately, the town was as bright as day, even a little dazzling:
Holographic projection advertisements do not exist here, probably because of investment costs. There are only giant neon lights, colorful, dazzling, eye-catching, and various provocative words and images, which make people feel like they are in a trance more than a hundred years ago. time and space.
A flying car on the verge of being scrapped staggered down in front of Qi Meng. The door opened and a drunken red-haired middle-aged man stepped out.
"What services do you need?"
"I'm looking for this place."
Qi Meng opened his palm, and the ring on his ring finger projected a three-dimensional map. Zhao Can's home became a small red dot in the corner of the map.
"Good stuff, good stuff only available in the upper space..."
The red-haired driver said as he came closer and suddenly attacked his passenger with an uppercut.
Qi Meng grabbed the opponent's wrist with his left hand and pinched his throat with his right hand.
With a little force, the red-haired man was lifted up.
Five or six men with the same hairstyle as the red-haired man quickly gathered around. They were burly, holding weapons such as pistols and rifles in their hands, and they shot violently without any explanation.
The bullet hit the protective cover, splashing sparks, and then fell silent.
Qi Meng casually aimed at one of them and pulled the trigger. The man was instantly torn into pieces by the shotgun, not even a single intact bone was left.
He turned around and looked at the red-haired driver who was almost suffocating, and said kindly: "Take me to this place, immediately, when you reach the destination, I will give you ten grams of energy block. Is this deal okay?"
The red-haired man nodded wildly.
~~~~~
About ten minutes later, the red-haired man flew the aircraft to a deserted village. Qi Meng jumped from an altitude of thirty to forty meters and arrived at his destination smoothly.
Of course, the red-haired man did not dare to ask for the energy block and hurriedly turned around and ran away. Qi Meng slowly raised the shotgun, aimed at the dangling target, and pulled the trigger.
The burning fragments fell behind him one after another, and Qi Meng did not look back.
He looked around to make sure there were no threats around the deserted village, and went straight to Zhao Can's home at the entrance of the village.
"Old man, I am Zhao Can's friend. He asked me to come and see you."
"He's Acan's friend. He hasn't been back for a long time. Our village is far away. You came by boat, right? Come in and have a seat."
An old woman opened the door. She looked like someone who had come from the old times. She was wearing a Qimeng jacket from an unknown brand. She looked like she was not in a good state of mind.
The old woman raised her hand and led Qi Meng into a room.
This room is probably not used normally, and there is not even a touch screen door installed. Standing at the window and looking into the distance, the Han River stretches as far as the eye can see.
Walking into the living room, Qi Meng looked around curiously. The layout of the house was completely different from the houses he had seen before. There were all kinds of old-fashioned furniture and electrical appliances. The sweeping robot was busy on the carpet. The smart trash can reminded the owner that it was about to run out of power. The last one A movie was playing on a century-old inferior projection TV.
Qi Meng glanced at it. It seemed to be an old movie shot in the 1970s, about the eldest princess resisting the tyranny of Emperor Qi Yang.
The old lady came in to deliver tea, and Qi Meng scanned it with a retinal scanner to make sure it was not poisoned.
"Thank you." He took a sip, the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth.
"Can you see clearly?"
He pointed to the collapsed Wudang Mountain in the projection screen, and the flash flood was engulfing Junzhou City.
"I can see clearly. I just had my left eye replaced last year."
Qi Meng snorted and said nothing more.
The plot of the movie begins to reach its climax, and the fairy mountain where the eldest princess is imprisoned collapses, as if Liu Kan's rule is about to collapse.
Surrounded by guards, the eldest princess climbed to the top of Junzhou City. Facing thousands of refugees who had lost their land due to floods and were desperate, she raised her arms and shouted:
"Kill all the local tyrants and evil gentry and take back the land that belongs to you!"
