Wasteland Border Inspector

Chapter 67: Newcomers Old Hands War of Words!


From their attire and the strength they showed, they didn't resemble the sleazy pests inside the Buffer Zone.

"I didn't expect this Buffer Zone to be full of hidden talents. Are you new here?"

"Indeed, I haven't been here long." The middle-aged man paused for a moment, clasping his hands together, "Hey big brother, I've been watching this place for several days now. Can you move to another spot?"

"Just move because you say so?"

"You're old. Even with that sword, you can't beat me."

The middle-aged man spoke bluntly, casually undoing the buttons of his short shirt, preparing to use his fists to explain why he was so confident.

However, the next second, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Continue talking."

Holding the Wild Bull Fighting Handgun, Master Tian's expression was peculiar.

"In this day and age, coming out to fight without even bringing a gun?"

"I..."

"What do you mean, 'I'? What's your name?"

Master Tian hooked the safety with his pinky finger, his body slightly twisting, and although he didn't make any large movements, he seemed to merge with the wind like a fallen leaf, instantly losing his presence.

"Come, try it within seven steps. Is your fist faster or my bullet faster?"

The middle-aged man was frozen in place, stunned for a moment, then slowly buttoned his shirt back up.

If it were a regular person, he was confident his fists weren't slow.

But the person opposite was a Celestial Union expert, and his Sixth Sense told him that making even a slightly rash move would result in him getting shot in the head the next second.

"Answer me."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, slowly squeezing out three words from his mouth, "Chu... Yunfeng."

"Where do you live?"

"I..."

"My patience is limited. Be honest or shall I shoot?"

"Slum... slum area."

"You newcomers always think about crooked ways to make money instead of finding a proper job to support your family. Do you really think having Celestial Union strength in this Buffer Zone allows you to walk around arrogantly?"

Master Tian shook his head coldly, "Leave immediately; I don't want to say it a second time."

"No."

Chu Yunfeng hurriedly said, "I need the bounty for reporting them, and I need the weapons they have. Without these, during this infection outbreak, my... my family won't survive."

"Bounty for reporting?"

Master Tian was suddenly stunned, thinking he had misheard, "Uh, you too..."

"Times have changed, the systems in Happiness City are very complete, way more advanced than many Shelter Cities I've been to. The money from fighting and killing isn't clean, and unless you have connections, you can't spend it. I've been squatting for several days. This group uses the library as a cover to smuggle at least five hundred kilograms of Antidote Powder hidden inside. Later, there's another three hundred kilograms. Bounty for reporting is at least... two hundred coins."

"How do you know about the infection outbreak?"

"I 'asked' it out of them. They all know."

Gesturing towards the library, Chu Yunfeng sighed, "Only regular people don't know."

"This Shelter City is in such a state, how can it match up to being complete and advanced?"

"Run-down?"

Chu Yunfeng slightly shook his head.

For some reason, the first day he arrived in Happiness City suddenly flashed through his mind.

Run-down, indeed run-down. Even the Inspectors at the top of Buffer Zone's power exploit regular people.

Good, indeed good. Some Inspectors are willing to help without any motive, providing assistance selflessly.

Plus, in these days, he had met too many good people, all trying their best to help him take root in this Shelter City.

It's just a pity that his luck was really bad.

Just as he'd prepared to make a big move, he learned of the outbreak of contact infection sources.

"Big brother, maybe you haven't been to other Shelter Cities in years. Compared to those places, this truly is a paradise. At least... adults here, and some Inspectors, really treat us as people, not as tools, numbers, or guinea pigs for random tests."

After his words fell.

Chu Yunfeng wanted to say more, but Master Tian's hand suddenly trembled, and he flung his gun over.

After he woodenly caught it, Master Tian flung the Defense Communication device over as well.

"Big brother, what is this?"

"Remember what you just said: since you've come here, treat yourself as a person, and don't talk like a tool. Live honorably."

Master Tian smiled openly, "This gun is yours, and this Defense Communication device, anonymously, I've already reported 6 locations, never taken the reward. You know what I mean, right?"

"This..."

Chu Yunfeng was stunned, his eyes filled with incredulous realization.

"No matter what happens, remember to go home before 11 o'clock. Your family needs your protection more than the Buffer Zone does."

"But?"

"Don't argue with me. Eliminating threats... is not yet your turn as newcomers; surviving is your mission."

"This place."

Master Tian paused, "At least for now, it's still the territory of us old folks!"
