Novel Full Chapter 107 - 107 – Revelation
Meanwhile, Emma looks like she's having a hard time targeting Leva, who keeps getting closer to Hans. The female shooter couldn't get a clear target.
An arrow suddenly shot out of nowhere, but it could only graze Emma's cheek. The female shooter immediately pointed her rifle in the direction the arrow came from, then pulled the trigger.
An explosion was heard, followed by a man's scream. "Argghhh!!!"
"Pif!" Leva flinched, kicked her foe again, and came towards her lover. But, the machete-wielding man appeared and blocked her, instantly delivering a combination of slashes.
Now, it was Leva who was overwhelmed. She had to block and avoid attacks from the two enemies, no longer able to attack.
Emma then walked over to the big tree where Pif was hiding.
However, suddenly another arrow shot, this time from another direction, almost hitting Emma's rifle-wielding arm. Emma immediately sped up her run, dodging Kat's arrows.
Gunshots rang out again, this time from some distance away from Emma. Kat's shooting stopped immediately.
Shit. Does this mean Kat's position has been found by another gunman? Did Kat get shot too? Why is everything so messed up!?
I pressed the pause button and went straight to Kat, who was crouching behind a mound of snow with her dog. Fortunately, the girl did not get injured at all.
However, when I arrived at Pif's location, I found the young man was self-tending his wound on the right hip. I don't know if the bleeding wound was caused by a bullet or just grazed by it. Pif had started covering the wound with bandages.
And Emma was so close to Pif's hideout.
I turned around, about to ask Leva to help Pif. After all, she was the strongest in terms of attack.
And that's when I felt like electricity was running through my body. Leva did manage to bring down Hans, the ax holder. Even Hans' leg was showing a gaping wound. His machete-wielding companion also seemed to be pressed against the woman.
However, a few meters behind the red-haired woman, there was Jill with her gun ready. If I pressed play button now, Leva would definitely get shot.
I held my head, panicking even more. There's nothing I can do now... Wait.
I approached Jill and studied the direction of the woman's gun muzzle. Strangely, she didn't seem to be aiming for Leva's vitals and would just shoot my female colonist in the leg instead.
A conclusion flashed through my head. Perhaps this was due to an order from their guardian spirit. As much as possible, the guardian spirit did not want to kill other humans unless absolutely necessary. I used to be like that too.
However, that doesn't mean my colony is safe.
I moved to the house of my colonists. Manu was on standby with his ax on one side of that building, while Seb just crouched down in fear.
A few meters away, the man wielding a katana had come to the house.
I checked the Katana wielder's stats.
[???? (Raiders, Colonists)]
STATS:
Ranged attacks: 11/100
Melee attacks: 69/100
I was stunned. This man's melee attack stat was greater than Manu's, which was only 44.
Damn it.
The only hope I have left is Kat. Unfortunately, while maybe my colonists won't be killed, I don't think the amber-eyed woman can do anything. If she hid and continued to attack with her arrows, she could be shot. That is even more dangerous.
Yes, these raiders probably won't kill. But if they were attacked in a sneaky way like Kat usually did, they couldn't help but retaliate.
It took me a while until I approached Manu. With mounting frustration, I whispered something to him, then took turns whispering another.
This is all I can do for them.
As soon as I pressed the play button, gunshots echoed, followed by Leva's scream of pain. I hit the pause button again and checked what had happened. Leva had fallen and raised her hands as I ordered. She winced in pain. Her right thigh was already bleeding from the bullet.
I then returned to where Manu was because it was the most important location for my colony. The place has a stock warehouse.
"We give up!" Manu throws his ax, comes out of hiding, and raises both hands.
The katana wielder instantly pointed his sword at my colonist. Not long after, Seb also came out of hiding. The blonde-haired man walked up to Manu's back, bending and trembling.
"Good decision." The katana wielder approached Manu, still pointing his weapon. "We don't have any killing intent...."
The katana wielder, whose mouth was covered with a cloth, looked at Seb with a frown.
"Dad?" The man lowered the cloth over his mouth, revealing his entire face.
What? I immediately pressed the pause button again before Manu and Seb could even react. Then, I went over to the katana-wielding man, observing his face.
Aside from his blue eyes, it's undeniable that this man has the same facial structure as Seb, despite his brown hair. What confuses me is, this man in front of me can't be called a kid anymore. He was even taller than Seb. I'm guessing that this katana wielder is in his late 20s or early 30s. This means that the age gap is not too far from Seb.
Is this a bug? It's impossible for Seb's child to enter a device that instantly turns him into an adult, right?
After thinking for a while and finding no satisfactory answer, I pressed the play button. Yes, the only way to really know what's going on is to let the scene continue.
"Dad? Do you still know me? I'm Eric, Dad. One of your children." The man from the Congraylham colony put his katana back on his back, then walked over to Seb, who didn't respond and just hid on Manu's back. "Finally, I can meet you after so long."
Manu raises his eyebrows. "You claim to be Seb's son? That's impossible, right? You two look the same age."
The man who claimed to be named Eric was silent for a moment with a gloomy face, then looked up at the sky.. "That's because something happened to the big expedition that was supposed to bring us here."
