On a manic night, the moonlight was obscured by thick black clouds, casting endless darkness like ink.

The wind, which had begun to cool down, swirled across the desolate ground, picking up small whirlwinds of dirt and blowing them towards the dilapidated ruins in the distance.

Although this block occupied by refugees has always been filled with endless silence and despair, the sudden sharp gunfire tore this dead silence like thunder.

"Bang--".

The echo of gunshots seemed to linger on the empty streets for a long time, hitting everyone's heart like a heavy hammer.

The thirty thugs who were originally menacing at the street corner were like a frozen scene, squatting motionless in the shadows.

Everyone's faces were filled with panic, and their eyes revealed a look of disbelief, as if they had just heard the call of death.

And even the refugees who were extremely angry just a second ago were all stunned now, looking at the direction where the gunfire came from, their faces full of shock and confusion.

In the past days, whenever chaos broke out in the neighborhood, the defense team always chose a relatively mild or even turned a blind eye, but now it has shown unprecedented toughness and decisiveness.

This shot was not only a warning to the mob, but also seemed to break some long-standing delicate balance.

However, the sudden change not only failed to make the refugees feel half happy, but on the contrary, many people felt a sense of fear that a storm was coming.

"What a ruthless shooting technique, headshot!"

"Kill the defense team to kill people!"

"It's over now. The people who died are the Jiutian Gang in the city. They will definitely not be kind."

"Leave, let's leave here quickly. It would be terrible if we were accidentally injured."

"Oh, why do we have to make such a fuss now just for the sake of a bite to eat?"

""

When thugs were indiscriminately harming innocent people, this group of refugees had hoped that the defense force would step forward to maintain order and severely punish those who did not obey the rules.

However, when this moment really arrived, when the expected justice and power were displayed in front of them in such a shocking way, this group of people found that they were not ready to receive this sudden "gift".

Perhaps this is the power of modern weapons, which can attract worship and fear.

Of course, there are also sober people.

"I'm going to kill you M. How can those bastards be considered human beings? Do you feel uncomfortable because they didn't rob you?"

"It's okay if you didn't take care of these people before when they were doing evil, but now they're still making sarcastic remarks."

"When you were distributing supplies, you were all smiles. When you had to bear the consequences, you wanted to be the first to escape. Have you forgotten who the defense force is protecting?"

"Get out now, if you want to leave, get out quickly, the provincial defense team won't send us supplies tomorrow."

"That's right, if there is one less person to collect supplies, maybe we can get two more days of supplies."

"That group of people has gone crazy and rushed here to grab supplies today. If no one comes out to take care of it, I'm afraid they will take you to the pot tomorrow."

"Support the defense team. If anyone dares to come to this neighborhood, we will fight them!"

"That's good. If you try hard, you will die with me if you don't survive!"

More and more people are turning from theatergoers to authorities.

As thin figures walked out from behind the bunker, their faces turned red and ferocious, and they gathered around with various weapons in their hands.

The thugs squatting on the ground became more and more panicked, looking at the approaching crowd around them in panic, their hearts filled with fear and uneasiness.

However, no one dared to be the first to run away, for fear of following Lao Liu's fate.

Until they were completely surrounded by the angry crowd, these usually arrogant and domineering thugs finally panicked, and some people couldn't help shouting in a trembling voice: "What are you going to do? I didn't steal your food!"

"I'm still robbing you, I'm robbing you x!"

"Beat them, beat them to death!"

"Kill one without loss, kill two with blood, let them all know!"

"With the defense team here, I don't believe they dare to fight back!"

The refugees' emotions that had been pent up for several days erupted like a volcano at this moment, and they were already unable to accept any explanation, let alone such a weak threat.

At this moment, they just want justice, justice that can allow them to regain their dignity and hope.

Inexplicable weapons fell, and the crowd surrounding them beat the thugs squatting on the ground like crazy.

At first, some people wanted to fight back, but the sudden sound of gunshots pierced the night sky again.

Although it didn't hit anyone, the shock and deterrence it brought were enough to make everyone quench their resistance.

"Ah, Kisaragi, won't this kill someone?"

Looking in astonishment at the crowd frantically beating up the thugs, Chu Chaofei swallowed and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xi Ruyue, who was squinting next to him.

Who would have thought that Xi Ruyue, who is usually extremely kind and always protects the refugees as much as possible, actually has such a side?

"It's not a good idea to beat them to death. It will save us having to screen them again."

Xi Ruyue said this while her eyes never left the center of the melee.

When people in the wasteland get into fights, they usually start with neither light nor heavy blows, and beat them to death.

In less than half a minute, at least half of the thirty or so people were taking in less air and outgoing more air.

What a relief!

The other thugs in the gathering area were at least a little bloody, and they only took supplies from those who were willing to participate in the chaos.

Usually, as long as the refugees take the initiative to give 30% of the supplies after encountering them, or indicate that they do not have many supplies, and shrink to the refugee areas that everyone secretly admits, they will deliberately avoid these places.

But these turtles from the Jiutian Gang are just scum.

He only dares to bully the weak and fears the strong, and never dares to compete with other thugs of equal strength.

Now he has openly come to the refugee area. He is a scumbag!

"Screening? What do you mean?" Chu Chaofei's attention was immediately attracted, and several guards around him also quickly pricked up their ears.

Being able to contact Tianyuan to find some material support is already great news.

Now, looking at Xi Ruyue's statement, is it possible that there is further support?

"Of course it's literal. Have you forgotten what I said in the early stage?"

"Holy crap, really, can we go to Tianyuan?"

"I can't lie to you." Speaking of this, Xi Ruyue couldn't hide the joyful smile on her face.

When leaving the venue of Ten Thousand Paths Battle, Sumo asked Lao Dao to prepare a set of special contact codes for future communication with fellow travelers.

In recent days, in addition to sending people to monitor every day and make contact every six hours, Xi Ruyue has also developed a habit: whenever she has free time, she will go to the world channel, hoping to capture any information about Meng Yue.

News from the territory.

It's a pity that all the secret messages released by Tianyuan are contact information with other territories.

The request for help from Mengyue Territory has never received a response.

When she saw it just now, she immediately thought it was returning to other territories.

It wasn't until the surveillance person came to tell her that Tianyuan had just replied to Meng Yue's territory that she woke up from a dream and was completely confused!

The secret text not only replied to their request for help, but also described in detail Tianyuan's support plan for Mengyue Territory and their upcoming action plan.

"To be honest, I only contacted with the mentality of giving it a try. I didn't even dare to expect that Lord Su would really agree to support us." Xi Ruyue shook her head with emotion: "Now Tianyuan not only wants to send supplies, but also plans to send a ship.

If you come to support via waterway, you can take people directly to Tianyuan!"

"Then they shouldn't be able to take too many people away, right?"

Chu Chaofei's eyes flickered, and he immediately understood the meaning of "screening".

Although taking the water route can avoid various complex terrains on land and greatly reduce the pressure of long-distance travel, it also has many unavoidable disadvantages.

First of all, supply is a big problem.

If you bring enough people, the amount of food, drink, and diarrhea in just one day will be an exaggerated amount.

In addition, the journey was long, and there were no docks for supplies along both sides of the river like in modern times.

If you want to take someone with you, no matter how little you eat, you must prepare at least fifty kilograms of food per person.

One thousand people, that's about three tons.

Ten thousand people, thirty tons!

If we want to take away the current 200,000 people in Mengyue Territory, we will need 600 tons of food alone.

How can this be transported?

What's more, Chu Chaofei himself is very confident and knows the current value of Mengyue Territory.

To put it bluntly, Tianyuan, who is so cumbersome and willing to send some supplies, is just pity for them.

If they really want to take people away, they still want to take everyone with them, and take those scum with them. They are really embarrassed to say this.

"It shouldn't be much. I haven't said the specific number yet."

Naturally, it is impossible to explain all situations in a general secret text, otherwise it would be troublesome for other territories to see it.
