Chapter 166 - rainstorm (1/2)

Sauron sat on the sofa, behind which lay the ruins of a collapsed building. It was probably a supermarket. A badly damaged signboard was pressed into the rubble, revealing a corner.

In front of the sofa, a bonfire was burning. The firelight illuminated Saurun's face, and an almost imperceptible sense of loss appeared on his handsome face. As for his vision, it fell upon the already deformed revolver in his hand.

After leaving Windmill Town, the convoy headed towards the Blue Ridge Mountains at a constant speed of 80 kilometers per hour. After nightfall, the convoy set out to rest on the edge of the ruins of an unknown city. They would stay here all night, and not continue until the sun rose tomorrow.

Sauron had chosen the ruins of the building as his encampment, not only because it was close to the edge of the city, but also because the collapsed building had become a natural shelter. If there were blind mutated beasts attacking the camp, at least they wouldn't be surrounded from all sides.

Parkland's soldiers quickly set up a defensive net in the camp, a simple defensive system made of wire and empty cans. The base was surrounded by three layers. Unless there was a mutated beast that could fly, most mutated beasts would trigger the defensive net. To mutated beasts, they were not smart enough to understand the difference between traps and waste.

In addition, the soldiers were divided into three groups, which would alternately watch the night to ensure the safety of the camp.

In the left wheel of the palm, the texture of the metal appeared to be twisted. This was caused by the huge impact, and the metal at the edge of the left wheel showed signs of melting. There was no doubt that the revolver had been created in the midst of a violent explosion. In other words, the owner of the gun was at the scene of the explosion.

Saurun raised his head and looked at the dark red sky.

Zero finally died. The duel between him and Lan Qi ended with a grand explosion. From the beginning, Saurun had never thought of letting Zero have a fair fight. In order to ensure that he killed this mercenary who dared to provoke the family's honor, Saurun not only set a time bomb on the dueling platform, but also sacrificed twenty or so famous names to prevent suspicion.

In the end, he succeeded. When the news reached the headquarters of Parkland, Saurun was rewarded by Old Brant. His position as the successor of the family was once again consolidated, and before long, he would return to the Blood Knights. With his potential and the support of his family, even if he couldn't become a general, it shouldn't be a problem for him to get into the colonel's position.

A colonel of the Blood Knights meant the ability of the seventh step, the right to form a thousand-man army, and the legitimacy of a private base. With the financial support of his family, Saurun could explore the dangerous southwest, or enter the no-man's-land in the west, and set up more strongholds for the Dark Council.

In any case, Sauron's future was bright. But he knew that no matter what kind of challenges he would encounter in the future, he would never forget zero.

This was the first man who had left such terror in his life.

Even if it was zero, it would still die at his hands.

The sky rumbled at this moment, and dark red lightning streaked across the radiating clouds. Following that, the wind started to blow again.

”Damn it!” Saurun jumped up from the sofa and shouted, ”Quickly put up the anti-radiation tent! It's going to rain!”
