Chapter 179 Western Town
Chapter 179 Western Town
Bang, bang, bang.
The descent was complete. Before Jiang He even opened his eyes, he heard a clanging sound that suddenly appeared and gradually accelerated. The sound of the whistle was distant, and he immediately realized that he was on a train, a modern steam train.
Jiang He opened his eyes and looked around. In front of him was the train bar. A silver-haired waitress was busy wiping wine glasses. Outside the window, the scenery was rapidly receding. There were sparse trees on the yellow-brown land, but there were endless bushes. A few clouds cast shadows. Someone was riding a horse at full speed, leaving a trail of dust.
Dusk.
Everything seemed dry, barren and desolate.
“Similar to the Gobi Desert in western America.”
The noise in the carriage seemed to be getting closer and closer. The silver-haired waitress put down the glass, leaned over the counter, supported her chin with one hand, and her tone was full of boredom.
"Would you like a drink? I'm a bounty hunter and bartender, my nickname is Silver Moon, and your name is Rhine, right?"
The young man in front of him had a monocle in his eye socket, his tall body was covered by a black windbreaker, his trousers and boots were all black, the style was similar to a military uniform, he had a handsome face, and his eyes were like cold gems.
The silver-haired waitress found the other person pleasing to the eye.
"A glass of iced rum." Jiang He took out the Whale Song revolver and placed it on the table, saying, "My position is a gunner, and I have three rare-level shooting abilities."
"A cowboy who couldn't shoot would have died long ago." The silver-haired waitress covered her mouth and laughed, "What is the rare grade?"
Jiang He nodded, it turned out to be just a passerby.
“It’s just rarer.”
When he first carried out the derivative mission, the Ten Massacres of Yangzhou, he came together with other players. This time seemed a little different. Six people were fighting against the dungeon. Normally it should be 3V3. There were no other players in the same camp at the moment, which meant that the search would require energy. Of course, there were other possibilities.
Realizing that the other person was a boring guy, the silver-haired waitress bent down and took out a palm-sized ice cube from the ice bucket, then picked up a file and cut the ice into a ball. Her movements were extremely smooth. In a moment, the ice cube fell into the wine glass, then it was poured with rum and pushed across the table.
The ice ball was like crystal. The silver-haired waitress found a few long ropes and sighed, "Art is life. The residents of Rock Town are very irritable. You may need these ropes, but for someone like you who can't chat or strike up a conversation..."
呲!
Suddenly, the train braked slammingly, and there was a sharp friction sound around the rails. People in the carriage fell to the ground, and then there was a clang, and the train seemed to have hit a huge rock.
The silver-haired waitress lost her balance in the sudden brake and fell to the side. With a look of shock on her face, her forehead hit the corner of the table, and there was an immediate sound of bone fracture. Blood gushed out and she fell in a pool of blood and soon died.
"Although you seem to be about to say something offensive, you don't have to die in front of me."
Jiang He was speechless. What a novel way of apologizing.
Bang bang bang!
Several gunshots in succession forced back the passengers who were trying to climb out of the windows.
"Don't move!"
"Everyone, sit down!"
"Hand over your valuables and I'll spare your lives!"
A group of five robbers quickly boarded the train. The leader roared continuously and successfully controlled the situation in the carriage with the help of revolvers and Winchester rifles.
At the gambling table behind Jiang He, two passengers were talking.
"This is so realistic! These aborigines look exactly like real people."
"Dawning is famous for its high technology. One hundred thousand dollars buys a day of play time. Rock Town has hundreds of complicated story lines. I have already said that it is worth the money."
"I mean dangerous, they have guns!"
"Don't worry, we are all new immigrants. The guns in the hands of the indigenous people may look old, but they are actually very advanced. They will not hurt us. Moreover, the indigenous people's free actions will not exceed the script settings. Even in the worst case, it will not cause life-threatening danger. We can do whatever we want." The blond young man comforted his companions and stood up, took off his cowboy hat and put it on his chest, and said excitedly:
"Everyone, have you thought about how you're going to die when you draw your gun?"
In the carriage, the indigenous passengers were amazed, their expressions were lifelike. In fact, the conversation just now was not concealed, but everyone seemed to ignore it deliberately and did not react at all.
"My God, he's such a warrior."
"Look at his hand gestures. He must be a quick shooter."
"Maybe he's just a fool."
Jiang He turned around and drank up the ice rum in his glass. There must be something else going on in the current situation. This guy who claimed to be a new immigrant had an indescribable sense of superiority. Moreover, the words "Shuguang Company", "high technology" and "story line" made the western town at the train's destination look like a man-made stage.
"You are looking for death!"
The leading robber glared at the other side with malicious intent. If this resistance was not suppressed immediately, the situation that had just stabilized would surely get out of control.
"Come on, duel!" The blond young man was eager to try.
Both sides stood firm.
In an instant, the leading robber pulled out the revolver from his waist. As a cowboy, he drew the gun so quickly that it was unexpected.
boom!
With a gunshot, the blond young man was shot in the abdomen. He felt like he was hit by a heavy punch. The pain made him bend over involuntarily, but the bullet should not have had only this much power.
The blond young man had an excited look on his face, with a hint of wildness as if he had been freed from his shackles. He repeatedly reminded himself in his heart that in this small western town, he could do whatever he wanted without suffering any punishment or losing his life.
This is just an abject game.
But the next moment, someone suddenly stood up.
Five revolver gunshots seemed to burst out at the same time, and all the robbers fell to the ground dead with bullets in the eyebrows.
The passengers were stunned. When someone stood up, most of them guessed what the other person was going to do, but the series of actions of drawing a gun, aiming, and shooting were too fast, like a flash of lightning.
The leading robber fell in a pool of blood, the back of his head almost shattered due to the cavity effect. Jiang He stuffed the Whale Song revolver back into his waist. His agility value was as high as 13 points, allowing him to attack at a speed far beyond the limit of ordinary people. Moreover, at such a close distance, for the elite veterans who crawled out of the Somme hell of World War I, he didn't even need to aim, he could handle it simply by feeling.
"Look what you have done!" The blond young man walked over angrily and reached out to grab the other person's collar. As a new immigrant, he lacked respect for the indigenous people no matter how powerful they were. After all, according to the script, the other party could not hurt him.
Jiang He said calmly: "You have been chosen."
"What!" The blond young man was surprised.
"You have the courage to defend the people, and I have witnessed it all. We in the Cowboys League need a hero who can stand up."
The blond young man suddenly realized, no wonder the leading robber drew his gun so quickly, it turned out to be just part of the cutscene, he opened up a hidden story line.
"Come with me, I will teach you how to deal with the corpse first." Jiang He dragged the leading robber forward.
The blond young man's anger turned into joy. He took off the pendant, took out a small pill from it, and swallowed it. His whole body was trembling, and his expression became even more crazy. He walked to his companion and patted him on the shoulder.
"William, wait for my good news!"
