Armed Train in the Apocalypse

Chapter 839 - 476: Scamming and Deceiving_2

After finishing the meal, Su Huan didn’t go out but instead started carving a few wooden pieces.

With a swipe of his finger, a very thin energy blade shaved off a piece of wood.

"What are you doing?"

A clear voice carried a hint of confusion and suppressed anger.

Su Huan didn’t lift his head, pointing to the bed cabinet behind him. The cabinet was about 1.6 meters long, with neatly stacked quilts inside, but due to years of disrepair, one cabinet door had fallen off.

"Repairing the cabinet."

Tasia’s cheek twitched, feeling like Su Huan was playing with her.

A dignified Tier Four Evolver not out seeking resources for further advancement, but instead repairing a worthless old cabinet like a carpenter, did he think she was a child?

Her steel-blue eyes filled with anger, she stood aside staring at Su Huan.

Wanting to see him reach his limits.

Su Huan’s technique showed he wasn’t skilled, but he seemed genuinely focused.

Though puzzled, Tasia didn’t interrupt until Su Huan finished repairing the cabinet.

Su Huan swept the wood shavings from the floor and dusted his hands, looking at the tall woman from the Northern Alliance. It was his first time seeing the legendary General Ju Ru, and to be honest, she was indeed imposing.

But at this moment, Su Huan had no extra thoughts, candidly asking, "What do you want with me?"

"But let me say in advance, I won’t be returning that batch of supplies."

Seeing Su Huan’s justified look, Tasia was infuriated, but she suppressed her irritation and said, "That’s not it, I’m here on official business!"

Su Huan frowned, "Can’t we talk here?"

"It might destroy your house."

"Alright, let’s talk outside."

They found an open space about three kilometers from the train, with the massive armed train reduced to a speck in the sky.

In Su Huan’s surprised gaze, the woman pulled out a 30 x 113mm helicopter chain gun from the ground and aimed it at Su Huan, pulling the trigger.

The roaring noise and flames filled Su Huan’s vision instantly.

The wind across the snowfield stopped, and snowflakes leaped wildly on the ground like boiling water. Centered on Su Huan, the snow shook violently as if hit by cannon fire.

All two hundred shells, under the control of the Tier Three "Trench Crusher," were not wasted, each one targeting Su Huan from head to chest.

The sound suddenly stopped, but the rumbling echoed across the snowfield.

Wind and snow dispersed, and two hundred bullets hovered in front of the tall figure, with narrow eyes glaring coldly, "Had enough fun?"

Tasia dropped the smoking chain gun, her pent-up anger dissipated. If she hadn’t seen how much Su Huan valued that house, she would have done this long ago.

"We’re even now."

The woman lifted her chin proudly.

Su Huan chuckled lightly.

He had only rested for two days, and they thought he had changed?

Without any warning, Su Huan vanished. Before Tasia’s sense of alert could rise, her neck was already gripped by five fingers, feet lifted off the ground.

"That’s not how I settle things."

Su Huan said with a faint smile.

Even so, there was no murderous intent released; Su Huan felt like an ordinary person, but the feeling of having her life in someone else’s hands made Tasia’s heart race.

Belated fear and instinctive reaction caused cold sweat to seep from her back.

The slight anger and pride in her heart vanished instantly.

"They’re looking for you."

"Speak clearly, or I won’t give you a chance to speak again."

Su Huan said calmly.

"The Pale Demon, they’ve swept east of the snowfield, searching everywhere for you. Obsidian Industries has already fallen to them."

Tasia said.

Hearing the name, Su Huan narrowed his eyes slightly. In his mind, images of the "thriving" order across the ocean and the white specter on the throne surfaced. He believed it by seventy percent but still questioned.

"There’s an entire sea between the White Eagle Federation and us. Did they fly over?"

"And how do you prove they’re looking for me?"

Tasia, grabbing Su Huan’s arm with one hand, pulled out a scroll from her coat.

"The White Eagle Strait has frozen. They aren’t afraid of the extreme cold, they just walked over. The Northern Alliance has reformed to combat them; I’m here to inform you on their behalf."

The scroll fell with the wind, unfurling before Su Huan, and its eerie appearance gave him the feeling of looking in a mirror.

What concerned him more was that the image on the scroll wasn’t any ordinary drawing or print but seemed to imprint someone’s "impression" of him directly into the picture.

Given modern science’s capabilities, creating such a magical scroll would be impossible.

The final thirty percent was completed.

’Looks like Obsidian Industries really took the hit for him.’

Su Huan realized somewhat.

However, he quickly connected another issue — it had been months since Obsidian Industries’ first warning, hadn’t it?

But there hasn’t been any mention of the Pale Demon in Donghuang.

Even if it’s elusive, top forces like Changbai Pharmaceutical wouldn’t remain silent.

Obviously, the Pale Demon isn’t in Donghuang.

Or, compared to abroad, Donghuang is somewhat of a safe zone.

Otherwise, Obsidian Industries wouldn’t have sought entry into Donghuang.

With some rough guesses, Su Huan released Tasia, slightly regretful, "I’m truly sorry for the Northern Alliance’s plight. If you offer twice the supplies as last time, I can forgive your offense."

Tasia’s face turned ashen, "Twice?"

"The last batch was already scraped together with help from Obsidian Industries!"

"Now Obsidian Industries is gone, the entire Northern Alliance is at war, and every gun is vital. Even if you killed me, I couldn’t gather it."

Su Huan questioned, "Isn’t your Mao Bear on the other side, separated by us, Donghuang? What are you fighting?"

"They circled over from a more northern area; we need to intercept them to avoid entry to the west."

"Then what about the military?"

Tasia looked at Su Huan, her gaze ice-cold, "If it weren’t for you tricking us into the Eternal Night, we wouldn’t be so miserable!"

This was completely unexpected for Su Huan, and it left him speechless.

With a quick thought, he understood why the country acted this way.

Near Donghuang, many small countries didn’t even have established military forces. The Four Countries Peninsula often comprised security team combinations — a threat to a demilitarized Donghuang, but not as significant as the Northern Alliance.

Although he didn’t know how the country achieved it, he had to admit it was bold and strong!

They physically eliminated this safety hazard.

Yet, Su Huan felt more conflicted inside.

Forcing Donghuang to resort to such underhanded tactics meant the pressure they faced was immense.

Though he had no interest in aiding the Northern Alliance, since they sought him out, he wasn’t going to hide away like a coward.

...

Lao San frowned, "I heard gunfire. Could something be wrong?"

He Jie curled his lips, "It’s bullshit, like guns are but a child’s toy in his presence."

"I remember Tier Three ’Trench Crusher’ can infuse bullets with energy, specifically to break defenses."

He Jie was speechless, "You said it, that requires en-er-gy!"

No sooner had he finished speaking when they saw Su Huan approaching from afar. His steps seemed slow, yet in a few breaths, he covered a thousand meters.

He Jie stretched his shoulders, expression calm, "I think I smell gunpowder."

Su Huan nodded, "Yeah, war’s breaking out again."

Beside him, Lao San also wore a solemn expression.

"Who are the enemies?"

"The Pale Demon."

He Jie pondered, "The one brought by Business Alliance, the kind that possesses people?"
