Chapter 10, The Desolate Thief (Part 2)

He scanned the crowd and asked, "Who is in charge?"

Others imitated and raised their weapons to unleash a barrage at the rolling mounds of earth, while the speed of the vortex beasts seemed to increase slightly, causing them to miss their shots more often due to the erratic movement patterns.

No. Puge shifted his head and lay down, intending to play dead. He thought to himself, forget it. Since the day before yesterday, when he ventured into the wasteland area until today, how many bizarre things had he encountered in the wasteland?

"I am sorry," the little man said, panting.

The convoy slowly set off again, with still two days' journey to Adventure Valley. Therefore, as night approached, the convoy camped at a temporary site near a lake to rest and recuperate.

When the stars hung high in the night sky and the sounds of insects began to rise, the camp had completely quieted down

The spider that was larger than his entire body is not worth mentioning. The day before yesterday, he even witnessed a fire-breathing snake that directly incinerated a whole elephant with a single breath of fire, and then swallowed it...

The muscular man nodded and then waved to his subordinates, instructing, "Take them all back to the camp!"

Before he could finish speaking, the sound of intense machine gun fire erupted from the convoy, with dense bullets whizzing through the air, cutting down the shrubs growing by the lake. The merchants attempted to counterattack using their vehicles, but due to the overwhelming firepower of the enemy, several more people in the merchant group were instantly turned into Swiss cheese, forcing Lip to cease the counterattack.

Puge tilted his body slightly, only to discover that the neck of the young man beside him was very fair, tender like that of a woman. Moreover, his facial skin was exceptionally delicate and pale, and the trembling of his closed eyelashes was even more enchanting, resembling that of a woman. Before long, this young man fell asleep in his fatigue

What do you want to do? The thin man beside him seemed to want to stop him, but unexpectedly, he was pushed aside with one hand. However, it seemed that his hand had pushed against something, causing his expression to change as he looked at him.

Damn, how come he looks like a woman, making me almost fall into the trap of becoming a back-to-back mountain. Puge muttered to himself and then turned around, facing away from him.

I am!" replied Li Pu as he stepped forward

In the wasteland, there are no perverts, only more perverse individuals. Puge's adaptability has indeed gradually strengthened, and everything, influenced intentionally or unintentionally by the *illustrations*, has become less surprising.

"Desolate Thieves!" Li Pu said gloomily. Over the past decade, there have been numerous families or organizations in the Desolate Belt. Of course, the Desolate Thieves are one such group; however, they survive by robbing merchants or adventurers engaged in trade. Most of these individuals are either former mercenaries or fugitives wanted by adventure guilds in safe zones.

Just as Puge was about to turn around and curse him, several screams suddenly erupted from outside the camp, prompting Puge to quickly dart out of the tent

Soon, Puge had replaced the tire, but Lipu insisted that he sit in the same vehicle as him. When Puge got into the car, he discovered that there was a person in a white robe sitting next to him. Nevertheless, he simply clapped his hands and settled down quietly in his seat.

This fellow appeared somewhat awkward as he scratched his head and said, "Um... did you hear any sounds just now?"

Ah... Help! A sharp cry pierced the air. Xiao You turned around, intending to rush over, but unexpectedly, the young man named An Luo was even faster. He dashed forward, grabbing the small man who had been caught in the vortex and pulling him out. Then, he drew a dagger from his thigh and plunged it fiercely into the center of the vortex. Following that, a spray of black blood erupted, and the vortex beast let out a final, desperate cry before dying in the mound of earth.

After a while, the bullets came to a stop, and several vehicles with their lights on surrounded them. People of various skin tones began to jump out of the vehicles, each armed with weapons of different sizes, resembling a group of terrorists.

Puge rubbed his nose, shook his head, and walked out, deftly taking over the tire that Xiaoyou had only partially changed.

A strange cry echoed from afar, and suddenly, Pu Ge felt his tent move. Then, a person crawled in, and it was the slender, delicate-looking man.

However, Puge also received attention from Lip. Lip took an older tent from the car and tossed it to him. At the same time, to his surprise, Lip actually helped the rather slender man in a robe set up the tent. Could this guy be a relative of Lip?

Haha... Those who are sensible should quickly throw down their guns and surrender, otherwise, we will kill them all! The crowd in the convoy parted, and from within came a muscular man with tied-back hair, dressed in a full set of gray mercenary attire. Clearly, this guy is the leader of this group of marauders.

"Who exactly are you?" Xiao You questioned, aiming the submachine gun in his hand at Park Ge's head.

The person cloaked in disguise then pressed a communicator resembling a wristwatch against their wrist and whispered, "Prey has entered the hunting range! Prey has entered the hunting range!"

It is a vortex beast

Indeed, the method to deal with the vortex beast was conveyed to him by Xiao Xian, yet it unexpectedly aroused Xiao You's suspicion

Lip raised the handgun in his hand and fired a shot at the mound of earth rolling towards him on the ground

Puge thought for a moment, sighed, and realized that if he did not agree to him, he would probably be driven to death by this insufferable sissy

Puge curled his lips and said nothing, turning around to continue sleeping. However, the person behind him said, "Can you... talk to me for a few minutes? I can't sleep."

Just as Puge was about to fall asleep

The valley seems to have quieted down again, while the scene that just unfolded was clearly observed by someone well-hidden on the mountainside of the canyon using a pair of binoculars

Under the pale moonlight from www.hetushu.com, Pu Ge observed the small mounds of earth around the campsite rolling back and forth in layers. The two tents were directly struck by these rolling mounds, instantly transforming the area into a vortex. In an instant, the entire tent, along with the people inside, was dragged into the vortex, disappearing into the gravel.

However, that delicate and slender man did not seem inclined to let him off the hook, continuing to pester him by asking, "Then can I sleep here?" He noticed that there was still a large empty space in the tent of Park Ge, and could not help but ask.

"Don't!" A sudden shout from behind startled Park Ge, causing him to wake up abruptly. Park Ge turned around in anger to look at him.

"Hello, what are you doing?" Park Ge lay in the tent and asked him.

The little man ran out of the tent with a joyful expression. After a while, he returned, clutching his blanket, and dove back into the tent. Puge adjusted his position slightly, making more space beside him, while the little man spread out his blanket and lay down next to him

The entire team consists of about ten people. When everyone finishes dinner, they begin to set up their tents.

It is possible
