The next morning.
The sunlight was still deathly pale, but that did nothing to spoil the good mood of the three people inside the RV.
"Morning, boss!"
Su Qingqian was preparing breakfast. Her eyes lit up when she saw Lin Hui come out.
"Huh? Boss, did you get taller?"
She came over curiously to measure him with her hand. "And... you look even better!"
Su Qingqian's cheeks flushed. Although Lin Hui wore loose loungewear, the masculine magnetism in his every movement made her heart race.
"Maybe I slept well last night."
Lin Hui brushed it off and sat down at the dining table.
Liu Xi came downstairs as well.
As a sniper with keen senses, she looked at Lin Hui with even greater surprise.
Today, Lin Hui resembled a savage beast keeping its claws and fangs hidden. The faint pressure he gave off made even someone as worldly as her feel her heart pound.
Could he have... injected himself with Gene Serum? Liu Xi pieced together everything she knew and quickly worked it out.
But she had never seen Intermediate Gene Serum and had no idea how strong Lin Hui's constitution had become.
Intermediate Gene Serum was extremely rare. So far, only Lin Hui had obtained a dose, thanks to his first-kill achievement.
After breakfast, Lin Hui started the RV and continued down the road.
Along the way, he casually opened the system panel.
[Survivors in current region: 398,791 / 10,000,000]
Seeing that number plunge yet again cast a slight gloom over the RV.
Fewer than four hundred thousand remained.
That meant the survivors were either blessed with outrageous luck, ruthless elites, or formidable people with overwhelming strength.
The RV sped down the highway.
Suddenly.
VROOOOM!!!
A piercing roar of engines came from behind.
Lin Hui glanced in the rearview mirror.
A modified off-road vehicle riddled with bullet holes was hurtling toward them like mad.
Several hundred meters behind it followed a massive convoy of ten vehicles.
They were all Heavy Pickup Trucks and modified jeeps, their bodies painted with blood-red wolf heads and their roofs fitted with machine guns. Some people even stood in the truck beds, holding light machine guns, submachine guns, or RPGs and letting out arrogant whoops.
"The Feral Wolf Guild?"
Lin Hui frowned.
The fleeing Lv4 Off-Road Vehicle had clearly spotted Lin Hui's enormous RV.
Its driver was a young man dressed in black. A flash of delight crossed his eyes as he looked at the black behemoth armed to the teeth.
"There really is a player nearby... and they've got something this big..."
He jerked the steering wheel, accelerated toward Lin Hui's RV, and threw something onto its roof.
Then the man in black switched on his vehicle's external speakers and shouted at his pursuers:
"He's got it! I just threw him the Lv5 Vehicle Upgrade Blueprint! It's in this RV!!"
Su Qingqian's face went pale with anger in the passenger seat. "What's wrong with this guy?"
He was blatantly dumping his trouble on them!
After shouting, the man in black took advantage of the Feral Wolf Guild convoy slowing down to surround the RV. He darted into the roadside brush and sped away.
"A Lv5 Vehicle Upgrade Blueprint?"
Lin Hui narrowed his eyes but did not chase him.
Instead, he gave Liu Xi an order up on the roof.
"Shoot out that Lv4 Off-Road Vehicle's tires!"
"Yes!" Liu Xi had already aimed at the off-road vehicle. The moment Lin Hui gave the order, she pulled the trigger twice in quick succession!
Bang! Bang!
Two bullets left the barrel, flew eight hundred meters, and struck the off-road vehicle's two left tires with pinpoint accuracy!
Warning! Front left and rear left tires damaged!
An alert instantly appeared on the man in black's vehicle panel!
His heart jolted. Looking in the rearview mirror, he saw someone in the RV's rooftop combat room aiming at him!
The Feral Wolf Guild had no intention of letting him go, either. Two vehicles were chasing after him.
"Damn it!"
The man in black cursed under his breath.
"They just won't leave me alone..."
But under the circumstances, he could only grit his teeth and keep fleeing!
Meanwhile.
The Feral Wolf Guild convoy had completely surrounded Lin Hui's RV, and the players in the truck beds aimed their weapons at it!
A man in a leather jacket sat in the modified jeep leading them.
With a brutish face and a shotgun in hand, he looked at Lin Hui inside the RV with mocking amusement.
"Hey! You in the vehicle, listen up!"
"That kid said you've got the goods. I don't give a damn whether it's true."
"Since we crossed paths, let's call it fate."
"The man gets out and leaves the vehicle and supplies behind. As for the woman..."
Through the window, he caught a glimpse of Su Qingqian. His eyes nearly popped out, and he practically started drooling.
"A real beauty! What a fucking beauty! Hahaha!"
"Leave the woman to show the boys a good time, and I might consider sparing your pathetic life!"
His lackeys burst into filthy laughter around him.
Inside the RV.
Lin Hui's gaze turned cold.
He was just about to act.
But suddenly, he noticed something wrong with Su Qingqian beside him.
The normally timid, gentle girl was staring fixedly at the man in the leather jacket outside.
Her body shook violently.
Not with fear.
But... hatred!
Both hands clutched her seat belt so tightly that her knuckles turned white. She had bitten through her lip, and blood seeped out.
"Still not coming out, kid?"
The man in the leather jacket spat out a thick wad of phlegm.
"Or are you trying to play the hero and save the beauty?"
His lecherous gaze moved past Lin Hui and settled greedily on Su Qingqian behind the window.
"This chick looks a little familiar... now I remember!"
A disgusting smile of recognition suddenly spread across the leather-jacketed man's face.
"Aren't you that college girl we ran into a few days ago? Tsk, tsk. Too bad the other college girl couldn't take much. She died before we'd even had our fun. And now you've delivered yourself right to us. This time, I'm going to enjoy myself properly!"
"Hahahaha!"
His lackeys erupted into shrill laughter again.
Inside the RV, Su Qingqian covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face. She trembled like a leaf in the wind.
Memories flashed relentlessly through Su Qingqian's mind.
Xiao Ya, the college classmate who had always protected her, had been dragged away by these people to buy her time to escape.
By the time she found Xiao Ya again...
It was at an abandoned gas station.
Xiao Ya's clothes barely covered her body. Her skin had turned a strange, blackish color, and not a single patch of flesh remained intact. Her death had been utterly horrific.
That sight had become Su Qingqian's nightly nightmare.
Su Qingqian's eyes instantly reddened. Forgetting that she was only a frail young woman, she tried to push the door open and rush outside.
"Calm down."
A large hand pressed down on her shoulder.
Lin Hui's voice was low and firm, an anchor that steadied Su Qingqian's emotions as she teetered on the brink of collapse.
"Trash like this isn't worth dirtying your hands."
Lin Hui watched the leather-jacketed man still shouting outside and spoke evenly.
"Since he's your enemy..."
"We'll settle the old score along with the new one."
"Liu Xi."
"Here." Upstairs, Liu Xi had already set up her sniper rifle. Her voice was icy.
"Don't kill their leader."
"As for the others, do as you like."
Lin Hui's expression did not change at all.
But at that moment, his dark eyes became an abyss utterly devoid of warmth.
"Qingqian, watch closely."
"Your boss is going to teach you something today."
"In this world, when you're dealing with beasts..."
Lin Hui shifted into drive and floored the accelerator.
"You don't need to show them humanity. You just need to send them to hell!"
