Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Zhuang Xuteng closed the door, locked the lock, and put the key in his pocket. Three months of training officially ended, and the outside world welcomed them with a heavy snowfall.

"Phew...it's a bit cold." Zhuang Xuteng was still wearing the clothes he had worn three months ago. Although they were all long-sleeved and long trousers, today's wind and snow were quite strict, and the requirement was that winter clothes must be winter clothes. He rubbed his arms, stamped his feet, and looked around. Although his home is nearby and there is enough warmth there, he still wants to keep it secret unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Where is the cold?" Ge Gongdao rolled up his sleeves and let the wolf hair on his arms shake in the cold wind. "I think this temperature is just right, hahaha."

"What's there to say? I'll see if you lose your hair when the weather gets hot!" Zhuang Xuteng wrapped his clothes tightly and said, "Let's go back to Peicheng quickly. It's too cold in the countryside without shelter."

"When I came here, I saw a steakhouse in town. Do you want to go there and eat something good first? I've been eating steamed buns for three months in a row. Now I just want to change my taste. Phew, I'm getting hungry just talking about it. "

Steakhouse? Zhuang Xuteng shook his head. He knew very well how the so-called steak was made there. "The first thing we do after completing the commission is to stay away from the scene. These three months are equivalent to one commission, so we must first distance ourselves now."

"That's okay, I'm not hungry now anyway. Why don't you go to town and buy a set of warm clothes?"

"Get in the car first, it's not cold in the car."

So, the two of them complained about the dilapidated bus that was leaking air everywhere, and they stopped for a while when they called Lucy. They wanted to retrieve their car and belongings, but they heard the news that Lucy was not in the city and would not be back until midnight today. They won't be able to meet until tomorrow at the earliest, so they can only solve it themselves today.

Ge Gongdao shouted that he wanted to eat a big piece of meat and refused to return to the warehouse's base of operations. The base had been vacant for so long and had no heating pipes. It must have been as cold as an ice cellar, and he had no desire to make do with Puff bars, nor did he have the will to cook. So they got off the transfer station and went straight to the Golden Bird Restaurant next to it.

They followed the lead of their noses.

This is a local restaurant that focuses on repeat customers from the neighborhood, and the decor is very rustic and warm. In front of the long iron counter are high stools for lone diners. They can talk to the boss while eating, so they won't feel lonely. There are only four tables facing each other for two by the window, and most of the others are for four or six people. There are worn old menus on the table, as well as bottles of chili oil, pepper, salt and soy sauce.

The restaurant's main food is fried chicken, but there are no whole chickens here, only chicken breasts, chicken legs, chicken wings and the like. Zhuang Xuteng looked at the price and knew that synthetic chicken was used here. The main ingredient was mealworms, and then some chicken flavor was added. This is also the common practice in most restaurants now. Chicken breasts are the cheapest, and chicken wings are the most expensive. The reason why they are expensive is that one whole wing requires six bones, which is more troublesome to make.

"Give him a pot-bellied set meal. I want one of your classic set meals. When you don't know what to eat, choose classic or standard. They can at least do this well. Otherwise, they won't be able to operate and there will be no other expansion." Zhuang Xuteng was glad that he had brought his wallet with him, and D Fatty’s sponsorship funds had always been kept in it. He paid, including a sizable tip, and asked, "Is there anyone selling thick clothes around? I'm a little too cold."

"There is a ready-to-wear shop diagonally opposite. There is no obvious signboard. It just has a cartoon man wearing a jacket drawn on the wooden board next to the door. People around will patronize there, and you will definitely find something you like." The waiter was quite enthusiastic and took the initiative. The introduction said: "The classic set meal takes ten minutes to be served. This time is enough for a round trip."

"That's great." Zhuang Xuteng stood up and said, "Brother Dao, let me go."

"Go ahead, go ahead." Ge Gongdao waved his hand and kept staring in the direction of the kitchen.

Ten minutes later, Zhuang Xuteng returned to the store wearing a brand new down jacket and found that Ge Gongdao was surrounded by four tattooed gangsters, and the waiter just now was trying to dissuade him. These are probably members of small nearby gangs. They also have the ability to collect protection fees, and then they have to pay protection fees to larger gangs and become vassals of the larger gangs in order to survive.

Are these people too indifferent? Ge Gongdao was obviously the tallest and strongest guy in the whole store, and he was just sitting there waiting to eat. Why bother with him? Even if he shows the long hair on his arms, he looks a bit alien, but the more alien he is, the more wary he should be, right? Alas, there are also many rookies in the mercenary world who don't know their importance, and there will only be more such people in gangs.

They were laughing at Ge Gongdao's body hair and making barking noises, which made Ge Gongdao just roll his eyes. Zhuang Xuteng thought for two seconds at the door. He wanted to practice with these people and see what the results of three months of training were.

In fact, those four people were not skilled enough to fight. Zhuang Xuteng had to worry about not being able to defeat his opponent, but he also had to consider the interests of the restaurant. So he pretended to be an enthusiastic passerby and dragged the waiter away, lowering his voice and asking: "If we beat those four down, it won't have any impact on you, right?"

The waiter was stunned for a moment, rolled his eyes, and said, "If they go to report the news and call more people, you will be in trouble."

Okay, I understand. As long as you don't let them go immediately after defeating them, you can still finish eating here. Zhuang Xuteng patted the waiter on the shoulder to thank him and asked him to stay away.

Just as the restaurant owner was shouting behind the counter and trying to attract the attention of the four gangsters, Zhuang Xuteng had already walked towards them and improved himself to the level of three dodges. He pointed at two of the gangsters and said that they belonged to him, and the other two returned to Gongdao. Unexpectedly, Brother Dao raised three fingers, indicating that he wanted three quarters.

Whatever, one or two doesn't have much impact on Zhuang Xuteng. He just wants to compare with ordinary people and understand the training results. So he slapped him from behind, giving one of them a big slap, which knocked one of them unconscious.

This slap was like a horn that was activated. Ge Gongdao suddenly stood up and punched him high. His opponent immediately raised his arms to block, and his reaction was quite fast. But he used such two thin arms to block Ge Gongdao's fist?

Of course, Ge Gongdao didn't punch directly - that was his previous fighting style. Now with the super-computing martial arts three-dodge, he is more flexible. The punch turned in the air without slowing down at all, but it bypassed the opponent's defense line and changed from a punch to the face to an uppercut to the chest.

I didn't hit the chin because I really didn't want to kill someone.

The first person was punched off the ground, airborne for half a second and then fell back down. Ge Gongdao stretched out his hands to grab the other two people, pretending to choke them. The two people were stunned for a moment, then retreated and advanced respectively, one trying to escape and the other trying desperately. They made different responses, but the result was the same, they were all responded to by Ge Gongdao.

Two big hands made beautiful turns in the air. One put the heel of his palm on the gangster's nose, and the other grabbed the back of the escaper's neck. During the short period of time when the two people's centers of gravity were unstable, Ge Gongdao pulled and tugged, colliding the two people's heads, and solved them cleanly.

On the other hand, Zhuang Xuteng, after giving the slap, waited for his only opponent to attack so that he could take advantage of him. Only when splitting moves can we better measure the difference in reaction speed. Unexpectedly, "his gangster" kept covering the back of his head in a daze, and he didn't attack until the other three were all knocked down.

"If you don't take action, I will beat you first." Zhuang Xuteng raised his fist and shook it slightly.

"I was wrong!" The gangster glanced at the three companions who had fallen on the ground with his peripheral vision, and quickly begged for mercy: "Please let me go, I am just stupid, I have a bad mouth, I am such a bastard!"

Zhuang Xuteng sighed. It seemed that he couldn't experience the three flashes this time. "Brother, you can knock him out, I won't hit him lightly or hard."

"Huh? Still have to..." Before the gangster could say the word "beaten," he was punched in the side by Ge Gongdao, and he fainted with a buzz in his head.

He raised his fist and beat the three people on the ground again, making sure that they were all unconscious. Then he smiled and said: "You are so unlucky to meet someone who is good at begging for mercy. This is your choice, not mine." It’s assigned to you. And, boss, where’s our set meal? I’m almost starving!”

Zhuang Xuteng shook his head and dragged the four gangsters under the table on one side so that they would not block other people's entry and exit in the aisle. When he came back and sat down, the boss just brought their set meal. Steaming golden fried chicken nuggets are topped with sauce and topped with generously breaded, hardened mashed potatoes. Everyone has a glass of light orange juice, which has unlimited refills and is still hot, which seems very humane. There is also a plate of various pickles in the set meal, which is no problem at all to relieve boredom.

"I'm sorry that you encountered these idiots. I know you are not afraid, but one more thing is worse than one less thing." The restaurant owner said: "It is neither fun nor profitable to fight with them. It mainly affects the mood of the meal. You said it is no?"

"Yes and no." Ge Gongdao shook his head, waved his hands, and said, "You don't have to worry about us anymore. We will leave after eating these. They won't wake up before then."

"I understand. I won't disturb you anymore. I wish you a pleasant meal."

After the boss left, Zhuang Xuteng lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Dao, how did you feel just now?"

"They are too weak. There is no challenge at all. No matter how I fight, I will fight. But..." Brother Dao smiled and said: "Training is indeed useful. After entering the state, I feel that the world has slowed down. I can do whatever I want." Why are you here? We won’t tell you here, many people are pricking up their ears! I know a place where you can experience it!"

"Hurry up and finish your meal. I'm so curious right now!" Zhuang Xuteng said while mincing the chicken and mixing the sauce: "Just looking at your actions, I think it's ordinary and I don't feel anything at all."

"I can completely understand." Ge Gongdao said: "You are basically at the same level as me. We are improving at the same time. Of course we won't notice it. Eat first, and you will know what I mean later."
