623 A Disagreement that Resulted in Violence (1/2)
Stomp, stomp!
Twelve figures landed onto the firm ground with force.
Jiang Chen stood up with his arms pressed against the ground. He moved his limbs covered with hardened steel and then pressed the digital screen on his right arm a few times. The hologram map expanded and the observation pod hung below the airship synced the aerial map of the water treatment plant to his control panel. Light ripples scanned across the map and marked the red dots.
There were 142 people in total.
Fortunately, they didn't install life signal jammers in the base.
Jiang Chen and his force were wearing the newly research K2 kinetic skeleton. Without decreasing the mobility, it maximized the defense of the external skeleton. In exchange, the cost of the K2 type was four times the K1 type.
And because of this, only the General's private force was equipped with this type of kinetic skeleton.
”All units have landed,” Sun Xiaorou walked beside Jiang Chen and spoke gently.
”Perfect.” Jiang Chen was about to order to move forward when he suddenly saw a few red dots leaving the plant and approaching them.
Jiang Chen raised a fist to signal the soldiers to be on alert.
Not long after, ten thuggish-looking people walked up.
When Sun Xiaorou saw the appearance of them, she almost burst out laughing.
Only a few wore a bulletproof vest, some had a piece of steel dangling in front of their chest, and even some's clothes were torn apart, not much better than hobos. As to the weapons in hands, they were mostly homemade rifles, common among survivors.
The only weapon that looked okay was the assault rifle in their leader's hand.
While infuriated by Sun Xiaorou's expression, Six examined the equipment of these people and then glanced at the airship high in the air, and he intelligently controlled himself.
”Where are you all from? What's your purpose of coming to our clan's territory?”
Jiang Chen and Sun Xiaorou exchanged glances and communicated via the private channel.
Jiang Chen: ”Raiders?”
Sun Xiaorou: ”Looks like it… should we fight?”
Jiang Chen: ”Wait, I still need to ask them a few questions.
Six had a grave expression seeing that the two ”weirdos” equipped to their teeth didn't speak.
There was no one on the wasteland that dared to disrespect the water treatment plant clan like this, even ”Empire” and ”Federation” with power armors in the city were respectful when they came to negotiate.
”Hello, my boss is talking to you!”
A muscular man with tattoos on his face stared Jiang Chen down viciously while shouting at him.
The raiders were not afraid of the kinetic skeletons they are wearing. Even with the homemade rifles, as long as they are loaded with armor-piercing bullets could penetrate their armor, they are unfearful unless they encountered power armors.
”You're the boss of this place?” Jiang Chen ignored the small pawn and looked at the person in the front, intrigued.
”No, not me,” Six thought about the man with his eyes dug out and his back was instantly covered in cold sweat, so he quickly clarified.
But then, he met Jiang Chen's intrigued eyes.
”Fu*k, I'm asking where you came from—”
Six's expression suddenly froze.
