“Okay, let's do what you’ve planned. Hey Brother Zhang, pay attention to your surroundings.I will stay here and protect the yacht with my life.” Wang DeCheng promised Liu Gan.
“Is there any of you locals who are more familiar with the area? I need a guide so we can search around for fuel,” Liu Gan asked the local survivors.
“While I was in the urban district, there were quite a few times I’ve had to come by here to do deliveries, so I am quite familiar.” HuJun had volunteered himself after he had looked around and saw that no one else was saying anything. HuJun wanted to proactively offer assistance so he could gain favour with Liu Gan and be accepted as one of the core members. This was one way for him to be able to enter level 5.
“Okay, then you can lead the way. Since the yacht is empty on fuel, lead us to the nearest gas station,” Liu Gan instructed. HuJun was now part of his investigation squad.
Zhang ShengLi gathered a few empty oil canisters taken from the yacht and he gave HuJun two to carry. These canisters would be filled with the fuel at the gas station. The four of them in the investigation squad proceeded down nearby streets and buildings.
[TL: Liu Gan, Zhang ShengLi, HuJun, Yin He, these four. ]
HuJun had been in this area for two months of deliveries, so he was quite familiar. HuJun led the investigation squad on the shortest path to the gas station nearby. This district was relatively closer to the suburban areas so the tornado hadn't reached this area and the damage to the buildings was minimal.
As the four people of the investigative squad got close to the gas station another group of people poured out from houses on both side of the streets to stop the investigation squad.
“This whole area is our territory! If you want to pass through here alive, then you have to pay a tribute. Only when we are satisfied with the tribute, then you may continue forward,” said the leader of the opposing group. It seemed like this enemy group wanted to collect toll money from any passerby's.
“This road leads to heaven! Stand aside if you don’t want to be on it! What will you do if I don’t agree?” Zhang ShengLi walked up to confront the leader of the group.
“Then go on a different street to pass! These few streets have been cleared out by us. It wouldn’t be fair for us to do the work for you,” the leader of the group said in a frustrated tone. The leader of the gang stood there blocking the road but didn't seem to have any intentions of fighting.
“Do you really think that with only a few of you, you could block our Elder Liu? If you don’t move, then don’t blame me if I didn’t warn you about our Elder Liu!” Zhang ShengLi walked up with his ax in hand.
Even though Zhang ShengLi was a muscular man, his original personality in the real world was very calm and collected. It was very rare that he would display such arrogance. Ever since entering [The Trembling World], he’d had experienced the tremendous pain of losing his only sister, Zhang Shengnan, and his best friend, HuRong, all in a flash. Now that he was paired up with Liu Gan, they’ve been through numerous life and death situations. Zhang ShengLi didn’t want to suppress his inner feelings anymore, so from deep within, a new personality was coming forth.
Zhang ShengLi had the ability to backup his words too since he was now level 5, it was a major boost to his confidence.
“Are you [Flying Snow]?” Liu Gan walked up to stop Zhang ShengLi. Liu Gan had to confirm the gang leader’s name.
[TL: “Flying Snow” from the movie Hero starring Jet Li. They just borrowed the name, no correlation.]
