Chapter 133 - Hunters and foxes (2/2)

”It's very easy to find him, Atasha. As long as you follow me, you will meet him. ” Zero sighed and said seriously, ”But staying by my side is very dangerous. You are the only blood of the Shapeshiva, Atasha. I want you to stay and rebuild this pure land. I think that's what Gunter wants you to do, too. ”

However, a moment later, she straightened even more. ”What you said may be true, but if I do not do so, I fear that every night I will hear the wails of my people. They would blame me for not taking revenge for everyone! ”

Zero knew that Atasha wouldn't change her mind, but the look in the girl's eyes explained everything. Suddenly he saw himself in her. When Leah committed suicide, Zero never wavered in his desire to avenge her. Even if his hands were covered in blood, even if the end of this road was a bottomless abyss, he had never regretted it.

As Atasha said, if nothing was done for the dead. Zero or Atasha, they couldn't get past him.

”Okay, but you have to listen to me on the way, including a detailed plan for revenge. ”Believe me, that guy is no ordinary character. He's the most cunning fox.” Zero said.

Atasha put away the saw, pointed at herself and said, ”But I am the best hunter!”

”Self-confidence is a good thing, but if you overdo it, you become arrogant.” Zero shook his head.

”Your words are very similar to those of the Prophet,” she said.

But at the mention of Gunnar, the girl's eyes reddened again. But this time, she didn't cry. Not even a single tear flowed down her face.

”Well, let's see how we can kill this fox. First of all, we have to fill our stomachs before we have the strength to take revenge. Second, we have to rest for the night, and I'm afraid my wound will have to wait until tomorrow to be able to perform its most basic activities without worsening the injury. ” Zero already knew about his injuries from Moni. Although the dead muscles had been removed, there was still some poison left in his body.

He would only start moving tomorrow morning. It was already zero trying to overestimate his body's recovery ability. Atasha knew this too and did not object.

It was night. Zero was sitting on the ground, leaning against a large tree that wasn't affected by the fire. He had just eaten a portion of dry food that Atasha had found in the village, which had been burned to the ground. Originally, these things were used by the clansmen for winter, but now that the village was gone, there was no point in preserving these foods.

The meat of some unknown mutated beast couldn't even be considered delicious after being dried by the wind. But the fiber and heat in the meat can quickly turn into nourishment, to help the recovery of zero as soon as possible. The snacks are very careful, almost dividing the meat into pieces and eating them with shredded meat, helping the food to be absorbed into the stomach.

A map was spread out in front of Zero's eyes. The torches burning with pine oil provided an unlit illumination, but that did not prevent Zero from seeing every important part of the map. His index finger pointed to the location of the Flash village on the map. From here to the north, if he didn't go through the Death Canyon, he would only have a winding river to travel through. The river was marked with Ramachan.

Monnie slept curled up beside Zero, who had taken off her tactical uniform. She was sleeping soundly, and everything around her was quiet. However, at this moment, light footsteps could be heard. Zero immediately found Colt, but only after he saw that it was Atasha did he remove his finger from the sniper rifle.

Atasha's entire body was covered in fine sweat, and her body was emitting a faint heat. Clearly, she had just come back from a violent movement. Of course, she wasn't going to exercise, she was going to track down Parkland's killer.

Zero looked at her, and the latter walked over and pointed to a certain location on the map.

That position was the upper reaches of the Lamarsson River!
