Chapter 135: Interrogation

A strong gust of wind blew past, causing the wild wheat and grass patches across the wasteland to sway in succession, rustling. Sharp roars came from amidst the grass, and Scarecrow and Rot Soil Hound appeared one after another.

They suddenly appeared, letting out hisses as they charged straight toward the team.

Rushing at the front were upright, ferocious Scarecrow, followed closely by two Rot Soil Hound transformed from sludge.

With just a thought from Wang Ting, Giant Claw Night Demon and Vine Spider Nurse rushed out separately, heading toward the monsters.

Giant Claw Night Demon tore the body of Scarecrow to shreds with a single grab, while Vine Spider Nurse dashed straight for Rot Soil Hound, wrapping its vine tentacles around it to pull it forward before biting off the head of Rot Soil Hound.

The two monsters handled it neatly, resolving the battle in an instant.

Seeing that the sky was growing slightly dim, Wang Ting said to the crowd, "Let's withdraw from the floor first, deal with the people from Bullet Town, and once things stabilize, we can explore further."

The team withdrew from Infinite Building and returned to the location of the staircase passage entrance.

The remaining vehicles were driven over by Dong Hu, forming a temporary barricade.

This place was still on sandy ground, making it impossible to build any fortifications.

Furthermore, the people from Bullet Town wouldn't take long to arrive, and they didn't have time to continue preparing. To achieve this level of readiness was already considered experienced.

Wang Ting called over Dong Hu, took out the crow feather drone from the macrophage bracelet, removed the control bracelet, and handed them both to Dong Hu.

"Take a few people to scout the movements of Bullet Town and see when they are coming.

This thing can fly 10km away; report to me immediately once you spot their traces.

We're going to hit them hard."

"Good."

Dong Hu immediately led his men closer to the direction of Bullet Town. The crow feather drone took off directly, darting up into the sky with a swoosh.

"Good stuff, it's actually this fast. This is another transcendental item."

Seeing the flying speed of the crow feather drone, Dong Hu's eyes lit up. In the apocalyptic era, this kind of speed and control method was equivalent to gaining an extra eye.

He immediately thought to himself, "If we could use this thing when searching for wanderers, the efficiency would be much higher, and we could also search Infinite Building. Next time I have to ask the boss for this thing."

As soon as Dong Hu left, Xu Yan and Xiang Nan arranged for everyone to scout the surrounding environment and make preliminary defense arrangements.

After bustling about for quite a while and dealing with a few zombies attracted by the sound of the explosion, they finally took a short rest.

Feng Bo did not make Wang Ting wait long. Although Deputy Leader Chu Quan was tough, the fact that he previously attempted to abandon his team members and use them as bait to attract monsters had long been witnessed by the members, harboring resentment in their hearts.

If it were ordinary times and everyone was fine, they could naturally suppress their thoughts for the time being and unite against external threats.

But now, as soon as Feng Bo separated them for interrogation, applied a little trickery, and incited them, it quickly yielded results.

"Li Feng, right? Honestly confess the situation of Bullet Town. If you talk now, I can still leave you intact. If you speak too slowly and someone else talks first, you won't have this value anymore."

Li Feng braced himself and said, "Sir, there really isn't anything to say. We are just small fry at the bottom, I'm afraid——"

Pfft! Feng Bo directly pulled out the dagger at his waist and pierced straight through Li Feng's palm.

He pulled out the dagger expressionlessly, and blood immediately splattered along the dagger. Excruciating pain instantly invaded Li Feng's palm.

"Next time, I'll cut off your thumb first."

The knife grazed across his thumb, leaving a trail of blood—that essential thumb for holding things with his right hand. Gradually, fear surged into his heart, and he cried out, "I'll talk!"

Feng Bo's cold expression made it impossible for Li Feng to withstand the pressure. Anyway, even if he didn't talk, someone else would confess; why should he suffer?

"Deputy Leader Chu Quan is the biological younger brother of leader Chu Gan. If you capture him, the leader will definitely find a way to rescue him."

Feng Bo's eyes widened, and a wave of joy instantly surged in his heart. He thought to himself, "We've caught a big fish this time. With such a heavy bargaining chip, if we play our cards right, taking down Infinite Building will be much easier."

"How many transcendents are there in Bullet Town, and what pathways are they on?"

Suppressing the joy in his heart, Feng Bo asked with an expressionless face.

"Leader Chu Gan is a Tier 1 Bullet Ant Knight. Deputy leader Lin Ping follows the Painless Pathway."

Since Li Feng had already leaked the bottom line of Bullet Town, he threw caution to the wind and continued, "Aside from the two leaders who are transcendents, Bullet Town also has four secondary limit-breaking captains: Deputy Leader Chu Quan, Zheng Lin, Li Tianlong, and Zhao Chengfeng."

Listening to Li Feng's information, Feng Bo's expression gradually became solemn. Such a force was already very formidable in the southern part of Tieling Wasteland.

"What about heavy weapons?"

Feng Bo asked in a deep voice. Li Feng said, "There are heavy machine guns, rockets, and mortars, but mortars are generally kept at the Shelter. However, if we are dispatched on a large scale, we will definitely bring heavy machine guns and rocket launchers."

The sky was gloomy, the strong wind howled, and a massive amount of dust swept across, crashing heavily against the hard city wall poured from concrete.

The soldiers on the city wall of Bullet Town tightly gripped their rifles, patrolling back and forth with earnest expressions, closely watching the situation outside.

Half an hour ago, Ou Mo had rushed into Bullet Town without stopping at all. After reporting, he went straight to find the leader inside the bullet factory—Chu Gan.

The entire bullet factory clattered and clanked as machinery ran non-stop. Workers filled bullets one by one, then neatly stacked them in boxes. The golden-orange bullets were as neat as piano keys.

Chu Gan stood on the second-floor metal corridor, looking down condescendingly at the bustling appearance of the entire processing plant.

This was the lifeline of the entire Bullet Town. Lacking a habitable floor, they could only rely on the monster floor known as the Giant Ant Desert Floor, hunting ant beasts inside to acquire corrosive acid and prepare smokeless gunpowder.

Bullets, firearms, and bombs were their most presentable goods, and it was precisely these hard currencies that made them more prosperous than ordinary Shelters.

"Tap, tap, tap."

Ou Mo hurried over, the hurried footsteps falling on the metal corridor producing loud echoes.

Seeing Ou Mo, Chu Gan showed a bit of surprise. "Weren't you going to hunt monsters with Deputy Leader Chu Quan? Where is Deputy Leader Chu Quan?"

"We found Infinite Building, which might be a habitable floor, out in the wasteland. The deputy leader ordered me to come back and report."

Ou Mo kept it brief, telling Chu Gan about the discovery in just a few words.

Hearing this, Chu Gan immediately turned around, his gaze locked onto Ou Mo. "Really?"

"The projected monsters are Scarecrow, identical to the monsters in Scarecrow Town, so the probability is very high. However, we also encountered people from Iron Ash Town, and their people escaped. The leader must bring people over as soon as possible, otherwise Iron Ash Town will definitely bring people over."

"Hmph, mere Iron Ash Town. Even if their boss Pang Ke comes, he is no match for me."

Chu Gan was extremely confident. His transcendental pathway originated from Sandstone Ant, and he named himself Bullet Ant Knight. Although he had not yet broken through to Tier 2 at this moment, nor did he have a mature potion,

the combat power of Bullet Ant Knight was nonetheless among the top tier among transcendental pathways.

Even upon hearing the news that the leader of Iron Ash Town had successfully embarked on the transcendental pathway, Chu Gan didn't put the other party in his eyes at all.

"Call Lin Ping and have all the fighters assemble."

"How many brigades?"

Chu Gan pondered for a moment before saying decisively, "Three brigades."
