Chapter 102 Hostages

"Captain! I..."

The man picked up the pistol tremblingly, holding it tightly in his hands, but still trembling.

"Kill all these people, and this gun will be yours to use from now on."

After Lin Qi said that, he turned around and walked forward.

When he reached the obstacle, Xu Sen quickened his pace, lifted the car with both hands, and threw it several meters away.

There was a bang-bang-bang gunshot from behind, followed by a roar of release.

In the apocalypse, the fittest will survive. If you still value the lives of others and dare not kill easily, sooner or later you will be the unlucky one.

Only by taking this step bravely will the road ahead be smoother.

Lin Qi didn't want to see his subordinates with the heart of the Holy Mother die in front of him because of a single thought of kindness.

After opening the roadblock, several cars behind slowly drove forward. With modified cars opening the way, they were almost unafraid of any risks ahead.

But when they arrived at the square of the Life Supermarket, they saw nearly a hundred people pouring out quickly, each holding a weapon and using the car parked at the entrance of the Life Supermarket as a cover, on guard.

"Where are you from? Don't you know that this is already our territory?"

Although the voice was conveyed, the speaker hid behind the car and did not dare to show his head.

Not to mention the threat of the gun, just the bow and arrow in the man's hand made people feel cold all over.

"We are from the Central Plains Safety Zone. Order has been restored there and survivors are being recruited from all over. You people are hiding here. Why don't you follow the federal instructions and enter the safety zone to enjoy protection?"

Lin Qi leaned in front of the modified car. The leader of these people had been killed, and those who were blocking the road and robbing outside were all shot to death. The purpose of shock was achieved.

Although these people who came out looked menacing, they were not even as threatening as those fierce people before.

"People from the safe zone? Are they people from the safe zone?"

When they heard that it was someone coming out of the safe zone, some of these people started talking about it.

If given a choice, they would rather join the safe zone than become the subjects of the person who occupies the supermarket of life and have to perform cumbersome etiquette every day.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. How can people in the safe zone kill people just because they disagree? He just killed our lord and many of his companions!"

Hearing someone's hesitation, the person objected sternly. In the minds of ordinary people, the safe zone was established by the federation, and disciplines must be strictly observed, at least not to kill ordinary survivors easily.

After the man finished speaking, he poked his head out for a look, and then quickly retracted.

"Captain! Kill them all!"

The man who had been rewarded with the pistol before had his face flushed, and there was even a hint of madness in his eyes.

He didn't seem to know that there was only one bullet left in his pistol.

"What are you doing? There are at least hundreds of survivors inside, and they are all done?"

Lin Qi glared at this guy uninterestedly and waved him to stay away.

Although killing was the best way to solve the problem, it was impossible for Lin Qi to kill the old, weak, women and children.

The only solution is to kill all those who were loyal to the previous boss, so that the other group of people who want to go to the safe zone can escort these people into the safe zone.

"I'm giving you two choices now. Anyone who wants to go back to the safe zone should go back to the supermarket. I will contact the rescue team in the safe zone and come to escort you into the safe zone. The second is that you all come up and see what I can do. I can’t kill you all!”

Lin Qi took the rifle from Tuantuan. In terms of deterrence, the rifle was stronger than the bow and arrow.

"If you want to kill us all, don't think you're the only one with a gun!"

There was another shouting from behind the car, several of them echoing each other and emboldening each other.

But no matter who listened, a few people immediately shrank and wanted to return to the supermarket.

Most of those who don't want to go to the safe zone have obtained a lot of benefits and rights from the owners of the Life Supermarket. These are happiness that they cannot enjoy before the end, and naturally they will not be willing to give up.

Although the lord is dead now, as long as the next lord is elected, they can still enjoy the ultimate happiness in the world.

"I will kill anyone who dares to go back!"

Noticing the flinching behavior of someone beside him, one of them stood up, picked up the spray gun in his hand, and pointed it at the back of his companion.

However, before he could shoot, Lin Qi's rifle shot across the target.

One magazine was quickly emptied, and after another magazine was replaced, he walked directly towards the supermarket entrance.

Lin Qi's purpose in deliberately delaying the conversation just now was to remember the location of those who spoke, most of whom were stubborn and did not want to leave here.

As long as these people are cleared away, even if they are not very clean, the remaining people will not be afraid.

"boom!"

Another person who stood up to resist was shot in the head by Lin Qi. With the gene lock turned on, Lin Qi's reaction speed was ridiculously fast. As soon as the weapons in the hands of those people were raised, he shot them and directly exploded the barrel.

At this moment, less than half of the hundreds of people in front of the supermarket died instantly. The remaining people did not dare to show any resistance at all, so they dropped their weapons and ran into the supermarket.

"You five go collect the weapons, and the rest of you will follow me inside!"

The firearms used by these people were also made by small factories, and most of them were shotguns.

As long as you know some abilities such as gunpowder development, you can basically create shotgun elixirs. As for bullets, most of them are steel balls or iron sand.

At close range, the power is also fierce. When we entered the supermarket, it was empty. The survivors who had just ran in were nowhere to be found. When there was an attack from a foreign enemy, ordinary people could only hide in the corner and pray that the crisis would end soon.

The first floor of the supermarket was in a mess. Most of the counters here had been destroyed, and everything inside had been looted.

"If anyone's clothes are dirty, just change them for new ones if you like them. Don't pick up the useless things for now. Come two people and follow me to the second floor."

There is also a living area on the first floor, where most of the supplies are located. However, the people in the supermarket have not been dealt with yet, and there is no rush to move the supplies.

Following the stairs to the second floor, I saw many survivors hiding in the corners of the counters on the second floor.

The second floor is where homes and clothes are sold. The bedding and beds are all occupied by survivors and used as temporary beds, which can be regarded as making the best use of everything.

"Whoever can speak up should stand up."

Lin Qi knew that there was someone else on the third floor, but they never showed up.

This group of survivors looked at Lin Qi in fear. After all, they knew a little bit about everything that had just happened outside.

Those who died were here just a few minutes ago.

"Leader, we are all being coerced. They won't let us leave, saying that we are citizens of their territory. We really have not committed any crime!"

An elderly man in the crowd trembled and said that although they had no worries about food and clothing every day here, they were enslaved by a group of crazy people. Women were often selected to serve on the third floor, and even children were not allowed to live there. Will let it go.

The biggest role of the elderly is to be insulted and to vent their grievances.

At this time, several men also stood up, their faces full of guilt.

"We are willing to go to the safe zone, please give us a chance!"

These people had just escaped from the outside, but no one knew whether they really wanted to go to the safe zone.

"Well, how about you point out to me who usually bullies you, and I will seek justice for you today."

Lin Qi moved a chair and sat down, but he already held the rifle in his hand and pointed it at the man who just spoke.

Sure enough, there was a trace of panic on his face, but he seemed to still have the confidence in his heart, and he suppressed it without revealing any flaws.

"No, no more. Those people were all killed by the leaders. We all want to escape the sea of ​​suffering and go to a safe zone. These young men are usually nice to us and do not bully us."

The old man quickly explained that although there were some abnormalities among the people near him, no one dared to come forward.

"Really? Do you mind if I go to the third floor to take a look?"

As soon as Lin Qi stood up, he saw visible panic on the faces of those people. One of them even shook his head slightly with a pleading look on his face.

"Leader, there's nothing on the third floor. You'd better not go up there."

There was a hint of crying in his voice, and he even bent down a little.

"Well, since it's nothing, let's not go and see it. You all come down and help me carry some supplies. Since you came here, you can't go back empty-handed."

Lin Qi seemed to understand something. He raised his head and glanced upstairs, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

The people on the second floor started to move and followed Lin Qi slowly downstairs.

"Captain, why don't we go upstairs and take a look? Why do I feel something is wrong?"

The man who had been given a gun by Lin Qi whispered softly. He was in high spirits at the moment, and his eyes were bloodshot, but he was not carried away.

"Even you noticed something was wrong. How could I not have thought of it? Haven't you noticed that among the survivors on the second floor, there are no beautiful women and children?"

Lin Qi just took a general look and found that there were only a few women, all of whom were very ordinary in appearance, and there were no children. It was likely that they were all taken to the third floor and used as hostages.

This method is used to deal with those who have a sense of justice or a holy mother's heart in their hearts. It will undoubtedly grasp the opponent's weakness.

But Lin Qi didn't care about that much.

"I understand. The captain needs to take a step back for now and then make plans, right? Are we going to sneak up and kill him later?"

His eyes lit up and he thought of the best solution he could think of.

"Kill the hell, come down and let them help us move supplies, and then leave after moving. Don't even think about such a thankless thing in the future!"

Lin Qi slapped him on the forehead, completely putting an end to this thought.

No matter how hateful the lord who occupied the supermarket before was, he didn't seem to abuse the people here. Although some people may have suffered physical or even mental insults, they survived after all.

If he charged forward forcefully, he might be able to kill all those people, but the hostages would inevitably suffer casualties.

When the time comes, if he complains or anything else, it will really disgust his grandma's house.

These people just voluntarily endured the humiliation and did not dare to resist, so why should they stand up for themselves?

"Captain, do we really not care about them?"

Hearing Lin Qi's words, the man was slightly stunned, feeling a little incredible.

"What is our mission here? We are looking for supplies. Now that we have found the supplies, why don't we just go back and explain to the rescue team in the safe zone and let them rescue people."

Lin Qi felt that he had taught him enough, and he had to rely on him to understand the rest.
