Chapter 042 Attacker
Colin is full of curiosity about the food in this world.
After squeezing into the crowd and waiting in line for more than ten minutes, he finally got a piece of bread.
It's a black
"Move aside, stand behind, don't block the way here." The soldier in charge of distributing bread shouted.
Colin didn't mind. He walked a few steps out of the crowd. Amid the covetous gazes of some people, he took a small piece of the bread with a strange odor and put it in his mouth out of strong curiosity.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, his body trembled slightly, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind - why didn't he bring Li Ming with him?
It would be a great pity in life if I couldn't find anyone to share this unique food from another world with.
The bread in the mouth continues to spread due to the decomposition of saliva...
Colin finally couldn't hold it in anymore, his face was distorted, and he couldn't help but vomit on the ground.
"Hiss... It's not bread at all. It has a strong smell of sourness and dirt. There's wood slag, grass roots, dirt, sand, and everything else. I can't taste any bread at all."
Compared to this thing in my hand, things like Laoshan Snake Grass Water are nothing. I'm afraid only canned herrings can compete with it in terms of smell.
In the spirit of not wasting food, Colin didn't think of throwing it away, and was ready to give it to his teammates.
Sharing of happiness may be late, but it will never be absent.
"snort……"
A groan of pain came from the side.
Colin turned his head and saw a dirty, skinny and small child who was squeezed out by the crowd and fell on his butt.
It wasn’t a big deal. Colin was about to look away when his heart skipped a beat.
The child seemed to sense something and suddenly became alert. He turned his head and met his gaze directly.
Her dirty face was full of vigilance, but when she found that there was no problem, she couldn't help but move her eyes to look at the bread in his hand and swallowed eagerly.
But Colin, who was 1.7 meters tall, was considered tall and mighty among the short refugees, so he didn't dare to have too many thoughts. He prepared to stand up and squeeze into the crowd.
But at this moment, Colin's words made him stop.
"You want this?"
Colin gave a friendly smile and tossed the bread in his hand.
The child was obviously stunned for a moment, nodded hesitantly, and looked like he wanted to do it, but his body was backing away.
He was more afraid of becoming food in the other person's mouth than the food in the other person's hands.
But at this moment, he saw the other party throwing bread at him.
The child who wanted to escape was stunned and subconsciously hugged the bread. It was not until he saw some unfriendly looks from the people around him that he came to his senses. Without even looking back at Colin, he turned around and ran away.
"Very alert, but, what a sharp intuition, is it a coincidence..."
Colin thought that he had just glanced at her casually, but the other person immediately turned his head and locked his eyes on him, which really scared him a little.
But it doesn't look like anything special.
Maybe it's just a coincidence...
But before he could think about it, he suddenly felt something and smelled a familiar scent in the air. He noticed that there were some uninvited guests among the group of refugees waiting in line.
They were the people who had just tried to attack him.
The battle mentioned in the "Book of Numerology" is about to begin?
It was at this time that there was suddenly some commotion at the front of the queue.
"Please, I have two young children. Please give me two more loaves of bread!" An old woman grabbed the soldier's hand, her face like old bark full of pleading.
"The rules say that each person can take no more than two. No more allowed!" said the soldier, and was about to drag the old woman to the back.
But at this time, the noble standing in front suddenly spoke.
"It's okay. Just give her a few more loaves of bread. We're going to Black Rock City soon anyway. Let's divide all the food. It will help reduce the weight."
After the noble lady finished speaking, an old man dressed as a butler with a tired face suddenly came up to her and whispered in her ear:
“Miss, I have no objection to your kindness, but we really should leave now. It will be night soon, and if continue to distribute food like this, we may miss it.
"Why not just leave the food where it is and let them take it themselves..."
The old butler offered his own suggestion, but before he could finish, the young lady waved her hand and interrupted him: "Before we escaped from the disaster, you should have seen what would happen if we did this."
The old butler opened his mouth, but when he thought of the young lady's character, he closed it again.
Of course he knew that if he did so, the refugees would come over like mad dogs to snatch food, trample, fight, and kill...
The number of casualties is likely to exceed half!
But in the old housekeeper's view, these are nothing but the lives of some inferior people, who are ignorant, short, dirty, smelly, and have no manners. Their existence has no meaning at all. What's the point of caring about their life or death?
Since when can the fate of a bad person be told?
The only purpose of their existence is to make food expensive!
"My command is my Father's command. Do it immediately."
Seeing the reluctance in the old butler's expression, the noble lady gave the final order, and the old butler nodded helplessly: "Yes, Miss."
Alas, it’s all because of the Holy Maiden of the Light Church. If it weren’t for her, the young lady would never have paid any attention to these so-called inferior people.
"Thank you, thank you, you are really good people like saints..."
The old woman walked forward crying and tried to take the bread from the soldier, but at this moment, something strange happened.
"what you do?!"
The soldier who handed over the bread changed his expression.
He saw the old woman who had just been crying suddenly raised an awl and stabbed him.
In a flash, he drew the dagger from his waist, blocked the attack with his backhand, chopped off the old woman's head with a wave of his hand, and then kicked the corpse away.
At the same time, when the strange change happened, a large number of figures rushed out from the crowd, raised their right hands, raised wooden javelins, and threw them at the horses in the carriage team.
By the time everyone reacted, the horses that were pierced by the wooden spears let out screams.
Most of the refugees still queuing were shocked by the sudden change and immediately scattered like birds and beasts, fleeing in panic.
Some refugees even snatched a few pieces of bread from the muddy water before escaping .
"Attack! Enemies are attacking!"
The old butler immediately realized something was wrong and stood in front of the noble lady. His body became stronger at this moment, and his muscles made his clothes bulge.
At this time, dozens of wooden javelins flew over from the sky!
The well-trained soldiers reacted quickly and blocked the attack, but what made them nervous was that in the chaotic fleeing crowd, a group of people dressed like refugees surrounded them from all directions.
There were at least a hundred people in this group. They were short but very strong. They came up without any nonsense, carrying more than seven or eight javelins, and started throwing them at the people in the carriage team.
Many refugees who did not have time to escape were stabbed like hedgehogs on the spot.
Colin, who was also included in the attack range, stood behind a tree, stuck his head out, looked at the attackers, and smelled a familiar scent from them.
A smell that makes one feel intensely hungry.
