PEOPLE FOUND OUT ABOUT THE BASE I BUILT ON THE MOON - Chapter 855: The Battle

Chapter 855: The Battle

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Seeing how nervous Old Yu was, Zhao Yu also became nervous.” Isn’t he one of your people?!”

If it was Old Yu’s men, he might still be able to threaten them. However, if it was other forces or hostile forces, he might be killed as well.

Immediately after, Zhao Yu realized that the group of thugs who had been confronting each other earlier had all started to tidy up their clothes, and their expressions had become serious.

From the looks of it, it didn’t seem to be a hostile force. Instead, it seemed like the boss of these thugs had come.

“They are indeed our people…”

Old Yu’s expression was solemn.” He’s the warlord behind our group. Normally, he wouldn’t interfere in the matters here…”

He usually dealt with the top management thugs. Some of them were at the military there, and some were at the company’s headquarters.

There were at least one or two hundred soldiers who had come. They were definitely not the people from the company’s headquarters. They could only be the warlords who provided the thugs.

People of this level were not people he could come into contact with. He did not know how he would deal with them after they came.

Perhaps he could scare the thugs in front of him, but the person who came now could mobilize 200 soldiers. He was definitely a high-ranking in position. Even their boss had to put on a smile now.

“Zhao Yu, it’s over. Don’t be too arrogant and despotic later. Otherwise, I might be buried with you…” Old Yu panicked and kept persuading him, saying that the level of the people who came this time was too high. A character like him could be easily given up as deposable.

Zhao Yu was also a little confused. He didn’t understand how he had provoked the warlords by holding Old Yu hostage.

If he had known earlier, he would not have been a hero and left with the people on the bus.

Looking at the approaching convoy, Zhao Yu couldn’t help but retreat behind a tree. He pressed his back tightly against the tree and held Old Yu in front of him.

“Tsk ~””Tsk ~”

The sound of the truck’s brakes rang out. A group of armed men in uniform jumped down and surrounded Zhao Yu.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Yu sighed in his heart. He knew that he was doomed.

Just like what Old Yu said, if they encountered such a fierce person, it was possible that they would even kill him.

However, he did not want to give up just like that. He could not help but ask, “Supervisor Yu, can you negotiate?”

Old Yu opened his mouth but could not say a word.

Not to mention Zhao Yu, even he himself had never seen such a scene before.

However, he was familiar with the cruelty of warlords in the group. They were not people he could threaten or negotiate with.

Zhao Yu had experienced what it felt like to have hundreds of guns pointed at him. It was a feeling that made his soul tremble.

Unexpectedly, after waiting for a long time, there was no trial. These soldiers only surrounded them and did not open fire or speak.

Waiting was torturous. It was like waiting to be executed. Instead, it made Zhao Yu want to shoot himself to death.

Half a minute passed.

“Bang ~!”

The sound of the car door closing rang out.

The armed soldiers and thugs surrounding the two of them opened up a path.

A bald man wearing the same uniform but without a hat walked over.

This was a man distinctly different from the surrounding gaunt ruffians—a robust figure standing at a towering 2 meters, his body rippling with sinewy muscles. His eyes were sharp and fierce, reminiscent of a bald eagle.

As the bald-headed leader moved, the surrounding soldiers and thugs instinctively moved their gun barrels aside.

The bald-headed leader stopped about ten meters away from the pair, turning his gaze to the ruffians who had been adjusting their attire earlier.

This look alone immediately made the previously arrogant thugs tense up.

Even though he didn’t utter a sound, Zhao Yu could still sense their trembling fear, a dread that emanated from the depths of their souls.

“Did you lose the hostages in your hands?!”

The bald-headed leader finally spoke, his voice as deep and powerful as if ground through millstones, carrying an imposing authority.

“Reporting to the general…”

A leader among the armed thugs stepped forward.

“Bang~!”

An unexpected scene unfolded before Zhao Yu’s eyes.

Just as the leader of the thugs began to speak, the bald-headed general raised his pistol and pulled the trigger, shooting the man straight in the head.

The thug leader’s eyes held a trace of unwillingness, his hand still gripping the rifle, but as he thought of his family, he finally let go.

“Thud~~!”

With the sound of the body hitting the ground, Zhao Yu was overwhelmed by a stench.

Looking down, he saw that Old Yu, whom he was holding hostage, had wet himself in fear and seemed unable to stand, relying entirely on Zhao Yu’s arm for support.

The other thugs, witnessing this, shuddered but dared not resist, only trembling incessantly.

Fortunately, the bald-headed leader paid them no mind, turning his gaze to Zhao Yu instead.

“Not bad, kid. You managed to let a group escape from me…”

Hearing this praise, Zhao Yu didn’t know how to respond.

After all, the man in front of him was a ruthless killer who had just casually eliminated his own lieutenant. Perhaps saying the wrong thing might provoke him.

The bald-headed leader didn’t get angry. He said calmly, “Kid, what’s your name?!”

“Zhao Yu!”

Witnessing someone die right in front of him, Zhao Yu’s initially tense nerves surprisingly relaxed a bit, even thinking to himself that at worst, he could just die, and there was nothing to fear.

“Not bad!”

The bald-headed leader nodded in satisfaction. “You’ve got guts and some skills. Now tell me, do you want to live?!”

Zhao Yu was silent for two seconds, then nodded, “I want to live!”
