The First Order Chapter 774

Chapter 774 - The steam locomotive gets pursued

Luo Lan sulked to the Zhou Consortium.

Even though he and Ren Xiaosu had formed a solid friendship, and even though he knew how annoying Ren Xiaosu was usually, he would still get angry at him if there was a reason to.

For his trip to the Zhou Consortium in the South this time, Luo Lan had planned to get there by going around the Wang Consortium’s territory. As such, he could not travel together with Ren Xiaosu.

According to him, the Wang Consortium was increasingly getting crazier by the day. In normal times, he might be able to go there and walk around openly since both parties had maintained a polite restraint with each other. But as of now, who knew if the Wang Consortium would do something bad to him?

Ren Xiaosu watched Luo Lan’s receding figure as he left, while Yang Xiaojin stood beside him with her hands in her jacket pockets. They were the only ones left in the originally bustling group.

“Whatcha you thinking about?” Yang Xiaojin asked.

“I feel like I’ve been constantly faced with separation ever since I left Stronghold 113’s town.” Ren Xiaosu said, “I guess this is what adult life is like.”

But not long after Luo Lan left, the sound of a steam locomotive traveling through the wilderness could be heard.

As the sound approached, Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin looked at each other. “Wang Congyang?”

Honestly speaking, they did not expect to bump into Wang Congyang here. Didn’t he flee from the Sacred Mountains? Why would he appear here?

And from the sound of it, the steam locomotive seemed to be traveling from the direction of the Sacred Mountains towards them at full speed.

The two of them hid behind a mound and waited to see what was going on. Ren Xiaosu wondered, “Could he be here to seek revenge on me? That old bastard is usually very cautious. He can’t be that bold, right?”

Yang Xiaojin looked at Ren Xiaosu in silence. So in your opinion, seeking revenge on you was a sign of audacity?

While pondering, Ren Xiaosu could see the steam locomotive appearing on the horizon. The steam locomotive kicked up a cloud of dust and smoke in its wake, looking like it was making an extremely powerful appearance.

For some reason, the rugged-looking steam locomotive looked particularly compatible with the wilderness out here.

“Wait a minute,” Yang Xiaojin said as she held up her spotting scope, “There’s others behind the steam locomotive.”

Ren Xiaosu was surprised to see through his spotting scope about 10 off-road vehicles following the steam locomotive. It looked like they were aggressively chasing after Wang Congyang!

“A great escape in the wilderness? A grand pursuit in the wilderness? This is spectacular!” Ren Xiaosu exclaimed emotionally as he looked on in amazement.

Some time ago, he had heard the female singer, Li Ran, discussing making movies with Director Mu. They both expressed it would be very difficult for the film industry to recover to its previous level before The Cataclysm as there were too many scenes that could not be achieved now.

That was why Director Mu Wan’ge wanted to make a documentary about supernatural beings. That was because the actual combat scenes of supernatural beings these days were even more enjoyable to watch than the stunts and special effects in movies before The Cataclysm.

In the past, who would really destroy a stronghold for you to see? Who could witness what a real cave-in at a lake looked like?

“Shouldn’t we be thinking about how to solve this current situation?” Yang Xiaojin reminded him.

“Oh, yeah.” Ren Xiaosu nodded. “Wait, let’s see what happens next.”

Ren Xiaosu was a little puzzled. Who could possibly be so bored to pursue Wang Congyang out here in the middle of nowhere?

Oh, it wasn’t without reason, after all. Ren Xiaosu had seen the Pyro Company’s logo on the off-road vehicles at the back. From the looks of it, they had been chasing him all the way here from the Sacred Mountains.

Ren Xiaosu muttered, “It’s all my fault…. There’s a total of seven off-road vehicles behind the steam locomotive. They should all be from the Pyro Company. Let’s get rid of them first. I feel that killing them should be a higher priority than taking Wang Congyang out.”

“Alright.” Yang Xiaojin had already conjured her black sniper rifle and started adjusting the scope’s ranging. “Let’s switch to incendiary bullets and just blow up the fuel tanks first. I’ll take the four vehicles at the back, and you can take the three in front.”

No matter how powerful Ren Xiaosu was now, Yang Xiaojin was still the main force when it came to sniping targets.

Wang Congyang, who was fleeing for his life, suddenly heard a sniper rifle go off. After the sniper rifle’s gunshot rang out, it was followed by the sound of an off-road vehicle exploding behind him.

When Wang Congyang turned around, he was overjoyed. He looked out of the steam locomotive’s window and was surprised to see the Pyro Company’s vehicles that had been pestering him for a long time had exploded into balls of fire one after another.

Over the past few days, Wang Congyang edged to the verge of a breakdown. At the beginning, he thought he would shake off the pursuers behind him very quickly. However, he realized he was wrong.

The Pyro Company was far more determined to kill him than he had imagined.

Although the Pyro Company needed to stop their vehicles and get gas from the trunks to refuel, there were limitations to his superpower as well. Otherwise, he would also have sixteen carriages instead of only four.

Afterwards, Wang Congyang started traveling over the treacherous mountains as he attempted to make use of the terrain to shake off his Pyro Company pursuers. However, a new convoy would always manage to catch up with him. There were even T5 combatants deployed to encircle and intercept him in the mountains.

Wang Congyang was puzzled. ‘Did I dig up your Pyro Company’s ancestral grave or what? What are you all getting so mad about?!

In the end, Wang Congyang had no choice but to head all the way south towards the Wang Consortium’s territory. Surely the Pyro Company’s troops wouldn’t go so far as to cause trouble in the Wang Consortium’s territory, right? Even if they did, the Wang Consortium would not agree to it!

That was what led to the sight Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin were witnessing at this moment.

Wang Congyang continued watching as the vehicles behind him exploded into fireballs one after another. He was extremely delighted. “Where did this hero pop out from? Someone actually stepped in to help me in the face of injustice!”

With that, Wang Congyang drove the steam locomotive right for the sniper’s gunshots. Just as he was about to get close, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and tried his best to make out who was helping him.

But at this moment, the ominous feeling within Wang Congyang started getting stronger, until he saw Ren Xiaosu’s attire clearly.

“Fuck!”

Wang Congyang panicked. He got very flustered!

When he saw the Pyro Company had been attacked, he thought it was the Wang Consortium that had stepped in. Now that they were inside the Wang Consortium’s territory, who knew if it were the Wang Consortium’s border guards who had ambushed the Pyro Company here?

But the moment he saw Ren Xiaosu, he immediately understood that after the Pyro Company members were all dead, he would be the next to die.

Sometimes, the enemy of the enemy might not be your friend, but still an enemy.

When the steam locomotive in the wilderness made a sudden left turn, the inertia caused the rear of the train carriages to nearly swing into the air. From afar, it seemed like all four segments of the steam locomotive had just completed a drift in the wilderness.

“What a spectacular sight!” Ren Xiaosu said again emotionally.

He was about to pull the trigger to blow up the final vehicle of his target. But before he could pull the trigger, the vehicle exploded. It was Yang Xiaojin who fired at it.

Although they had agreed that Yang Xiaojin would take four vehicles while Ren Xiaosu took three, Yang Xiaojin blew up five of them in the end.

Ren Xiaosu thought to himself that this was probably the difference between a Master Firearms Proficiency user and a Perfect Firearms Proficiency user.

But a second later, a shadow leaped out of the last vehicle that was engulfed in flames. Although the other party’s clothes were on fire, he seemed to be fine.

Ren Xiaosu said with a frown, “There’s even a T5?”
