Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 199: Robbers
Chapter 199: Chapter 199: Robbers
Without the obstacle of mutated fish blocking the way, the group moved faster than before. Even though the rain was still falling heavily and persistently, it didn’t hinder them.
Chu Miao chose not to use spiritual power to cover the boats because she wanted everyone to get used to such hardships. Things were only going to get worse and not better. Therefore, having the ability to weather different storms calms calmly is.
She decided to have the team members train in different ways and this was one of them. Combat wasn’t the only thing requiring training. Resilience also needed constant training.
The group had only left the street for about two kilometers before they found themselves surrounded.
This time, it wasn’t fish surrounding them but human beings. A group of over a dozen people in four motor boats blocked their way in all directions.
Chu Miao, Ye Xuan , and Chu Hao had actually sensed these people long ago but they thought that they were fellow survivors coming out to look for supplies. They had not expected them to be robbers.
Looking at these people, each boat had three people, all holding weapons. One of them, who seemed like the leader, had a gun while the others had knives and machetes.
There was a thick smell of blood on them even though they appeared clean. Chu Miao knew what that smell meant. These people had blood on their hands.
They had killed innocent people and the number wasn’t small. Otherwise, the bloody smell wouldn’t be so strong.
Thinking of this, her aura changed in an instant and she became as sharp as an unsheathed sword. Everyone around her whether teammate, or the robbers shivered.
She was too terrifying. Even Chu Hao, who grew up with her, had never seen such an aura in his sister. However, there was one person who wasn’t as affected as the others. It was Ye Xuan.
He had seen this side of Chu Miao before. Even though it had been in a dream, he had seen it. He hadn’t expected the real thing to be so terrifying.
But he understood why she was like that. The others might not have smelled the blood, but he could smell it. He had been to the frontlines before. He had fought terrorists and other criminals many times while in the military.
He was too familiar with that smell of blood and what it represented. Even he couldn’t wait to tear these people to pieces.
After the robbers came back to their senses and realized that they had been intimidated by a little girl, they were angry at themselves and at Chu Miao too.
"Who are you putting on airs for? If your group wants to live, leave behind all the supplies in those boats and go." The bandit leader said with a malevolent voice.
"What if we don’t?" Chu Hao asked as he looked at the leader with a mocking gaze
Seeing how he was looking at him, the leader felt challenged. He felt that his prestige was challenged and looked down upon. If he didn’t teach these people a lesson, then he wouldn’t be able to lift his head high in front of his subordinates in the future.
"Since you know how to talk back, then I will take more interest, leave the supplies and the boats behind together with the two girls and you can keep your life. Otherwise, face the consequences." The leader changed his words, feeling that now he looked more imposing.
Not knowing that he was digging a deeper grave for himself.
When Chu Hao and Ye Xuan heard his words, their expressions changed and their eyes turned bloodthirsty.
Anyone who had designs on his sister couldn’t be let off. Ye Xuan thought that for having inappropriate thoughts about his beloved, the leader could no longer keep his life.
He would never let off anyone who even thinks of hurting Chu Miao.
When Chichi heard the leader’s words, she was so scared that she moved behind Chu Hao and hid. She didn’t want to fall into the hands of such desperados. One could imagine what would happen to them if they were captured by such people.
Feeling the movement behind him, Chu Hao also came back to his senses. Yes, there wasn’t just his sister to protect, there was also another delicate flower that needed his protection.
Turning to look at Chichi, he saw that her face was as pale as a sheet of paper and she was trembling. He could tell it wasn’t from the cold but from fear.
"Don’t worry, they can’t get close to you let alone touch you. Since you are part of our team now, you have our protection. You don’t have to worry about such trivials." Chu Hao said as he touched her head to comfort her.
Chichi looked up and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the gentle look in Chu Hao’s eyes. He was looking at her tenderly as if she was a treasure worth protecting.
She didn’t know what came over her as she felt all the fear melt away and nodded her head.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Chu Hao turned to look at the men in the boats. The men had, of course, heard his statement, but didn’t take it seriously. They had more people and their leader even had a gun. There was no way these people could overpower them.
"Have you made your decision? Leave the supplies, boats, and women behind and we will spare your lives. Otherwise, you can die here. I don’t mind spilling some blood." The leader said again as he eyed the few people in the two boats.
At first he had been measuring their movements to determine whether they were dangerous. But after seeing the girl curling up in fear behind that man, he dismissed such thoughts and decided to take everything.
There was no need to spare such people.
"Listen to the leader, we have a gun and you are empty-handed. You only have a few swords as weapons and moreover, we also outnumber you.
So, it’s better to make a smart choice and save your lives. After all, with life there are possibilities." One of the followers with a sharp face and shifty eyes said and the others almost collapsed with laughter.
