Alien paradise

Chapter 70 Bombardment

"Being tortured alone...it shouldn't be like ordinary slave workers." Zhang Zhiyuan reached out and touched the other person's neck, "There is still energy, but there is definitely no way to escape like this."

"Hey, give me a look before you leave." He turned to look at Reske, who was still there, "Do you know this person?"

The boy stepped forward and looked at it carefully before shaking his head.

"I said, you don't want to bring him back to Glory Castle, do you?" Anthony shouted while rummaging through the boxes.

"Sorry, that's exactly what I was planning to do."

"You don't even know who he is."

"No matter who it is, it is unlikely that he is a friend of Gaotian Mining." Zhang Zhiyuan cut the hanging rope with a dagger, then untied the restraint belts and carefully supported the injured on his shoulders. "And the fact that he was kept alone in the commander's quarters must be extraordinary for the company."

"Hmph, as you wish." The Russian said no more.

This reaction surprised Zhang Zhiyuan. He thought that the other party would quarrel with him for a while.

"I found it!" Zhou Zhi suddenly shouted loudly.

I saw him dragging out a heavy iron box from under the bedside table. As the box slid, there was a clanging sound of metal inside.

"But this box has a lock!"

"Let me do it." Anthony raised his gun, pointed it at an angle, and fired two shots at the lock, smashing the lock into pieces.

The iron box opened in response, revealing the contents stored inside - seven or eight full cloth bags piled together, each one looking so solid. He picked one out at random, untied the rope at the bag's mouth, and dumped the contents out!

They were all half-palm-sized coins, and each one reflected a dark golden light under the dim oil lamp.

Wherever you put it, this is an enviable wealth.

Anthony took off his coat and packed all the bags together skillfully, "Okay, we can leave."

"Be careful, the situation is a bit strange!" Naruko Asahara warned at this time.

"What's wrong?"

"When I was guarding the window just now, I could still see them trying to get closer to the car, but now that we have been in the captain's room for so long, no one from car No. 7 has followed."

The captain's cabin was a fully enclosed steel carriage, so they couldn't see what was going on outside.

"When you put it like that... I also think it's a little too quiet near the train?" Zhou Zhi whispered.

It was obvious that the two sides were at war, and the security team of Gaotian Mining also knew that the enemy had broken into the carriage, so they had to try to counterattack, right?

And even if we are wary of their ferocious firepower, there are still a lot of freed slaves outside! If they can't deal with the "violent gangsters", are these thugs not even going to deal with unarmed ordinary people?

"No matter what their plans are, we just need to transport the money under the bridge." Zhang Zhiyuan thought for a moment, "In this way, we will not leave from the No. 7 carriage, but return to the No. 3 carriage, which can be used as cover. There’s also more terrain.”

These words were unanimously recognized by everyone.

But just as they passed through the seventh car, the sharp-eyed Elodie immediately noticed that there was a faint blue light outside the car window!

There is no doubt that it is a lamp specially designed to dispel the fog.

"No..." Reske's expression suddenly changed, "We can't go any further, go back!"

At the same time, Zhang Zhiyuan saw several figures moving around not far from the railway bridge. Then in less than three seconds, a bright red flare shot straight into the sky. Even through the thick fog, it could be vaguely seen. The unique light it emits!

He suddenly realized something, and rushed to the window with the injured person on his back, and looked toward the rear of the car——

I saw a strange steel machine standing on the slope of the depression. The same searchlight as the train was installed on the top, but the range of dispersing the fog was smaller. But even so, it was still enough for Zhang Zhiyuan to see its full picture.

It has multi-legged, spider-like legs, each joint spewing steam as if it were a giant boiler in itself. But Zhang Zhiyuan would never regard it as a water-boiling thing, because its upper body was clearly a turret, and the black muzzle was pointed directly at the carriage they were in!

He finally understood what the terrible weapon the boy had been talking about was.

“Everyone jump off the bus—right now!”

Zhang Zhiyuan shouted with the loudest voice, and at the same time, he moved the person behind him to the front, hugged him tightly and jumped out of the car in one step.

While he was still in the air, he saw a scorching flame from the corner of his eye.

The next moment, Zhang Zhiyuan felt as if he had been pushed hard by something. He flew backwards and fell directly under the wooden bridge. His head was filled with exploding sparks and black smoke.

It was only then that the violent explosion penetrated his eardrums——

boom!

For a moment it seemed as if the earth was shaking!

Zhang Zhiyuan fell headlong into the bushes and rolled several times before stopping.

"Host! Suppress the pain!"

"It has been reduced to 25%." Chaoyang's timely voice reassured him. No wonder no one counterattacked the carriage. It turned out that Gaotian Company’s escorts had no intention of confronting them head-on! Before the other party left, they deliberately left many lighting stones to disperse the fog around the carriage, just to facilitate monitoring their actions from a distance!

But why didn't these people just bombard the commander's room?

Did he not want to kill the man who was being tortured?

Zhang Zhiyuan checked the unconscious man in his arms and found that he had not suffered much impact damage, but his left arm was completely numb and was probably broken.

Fortunately, the wooden bridge was not high, otherwise it would have been absolutely lifeless the moment it was blown away.

"Can you help me confirm the situation of others?"

"Zhou Zhi, Elodie and Naruko Asahara are getting off the bridge from the other side. Anthony is offline." Chaoyang quickly replied.

After receiving this answer, Zhang Zhiyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was bombarded head-on, he did not expect that the casualties were lighter than he expected. In this case, only one person was killed in action, which was considered a blessing among misfortunes.

He staggered to his feet and dragged the unconscious man limping toward the bottom of the wooden bridge. After crossing the bridge, he saw Zhou Zhi and his party. But the boy named Reske still didn't escape alone, but followed them.

"Brother Zhang, are you okay?"

Zhou Zhi ran towards him excitedly.

"It's not a big problem, what about you?"

"Basically not injured." Zhou Zhi patted his chest, looking shocked. "When we saw you jump, we jumped too, and then there were explosions and flames. I thought I was going to die, but the shock wave didn't seem to affect us. Only Anthony... He was pierced through the stomach by a piece of iron sheet that exploded, and he was already out of breath when he landed. We could only leave him on the bridge, but luckily the money was still there. Besides..."

"What else?" Seeing that he hesitated to speak, Zhang Zhiyuan couldn't help but ask.

"I..." Zhou Zhi wanted to say that the moment he jumped out of the window, he had clearly seen the explosion of fire, but the fire did not engulf them, but ended at the window, as if there was an invisible barrier that would explode. The power is isolated in the car. However, since the process only lasted a moment, he was not sure whether it was an illusion, so he finally shook his head and said, "No, it's nothing... I'm probably just lucky."

After all, the outcome of the Russians was exactly the opposite.
