Chapter 259
Dead silence.
The entire convoy fell into dead silence.
No one had expected Lin Yi to have a gun, much less to shoot Old Zhang without a second thought.
Old Zhang was a Sequence Transcendent, yet he had been killed with a single shot.
This gun had been made by Aru and was considerably stronger than anything a [Mechanic] could produce. Although it couldn't hurt powerful Aberration Creatures, it was more than enough to kill people.
Back when Lin Yi had been Sequence Seven, Aru's gun had scared him into standing still without daring to move.
At humanity's current stage, firearms remained lethal.
Even Sequence Transcendents risked being killed by a single bullet unless they possessed special abilities.
Ren Zhu had wanted to lash out, but then he remembered the gun in Lin Yi's hand and had no choice but to swallow his anger.
There was nothing he could do.
What choice did he have when the other guy had a gun?
A flicker of fear crossed Meng Jie's eyes. Having a gun and not having one were two entirely different things.
With a gun in hand, Lin Yi had a powerful weapon at his disposal.

After a long silence, Meng Jie finally said, "Captain Lin, Old Zhang's death wasn't your fault. He stirred up the convoy members to cause trouble for you, so he brought it on himself. Forget about the instant noodles."
With that, he turned away, wariness lingering on his face.
