The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 302 - 295 Liu Zheng: Are you sure? It’s a sure kill

"It’s not their fault!"

The Machine Gun Hunter exclaid excitedly.

"Enough, Yula. Why even talk to them like that?"

The Horn Rifle Hunter said.

"Leave this place, foreigners, and the Church’s lackeys. Your damage to Old Yate has been enough. Let these poor people have a mont of peace.

"We will leave, but you need to do sothing for us."

Liu Zheng said.

"Why should we help you?"

The Machine Gun Hunter angrily said.

"Because it’s in my hand."

He pointed at the charred orc that the helt man had knocked unconscious.

"Foreigners, you are similarly in our hands."

The Horn Rifle Hunter scoffed coldly.

As if to prove his point, several gunshots rang out simultaneously, the bullets whizzing past Liu Zheng and his companions.

"Let’s not even ntion whether you can kill us. Even if we stood still and let you kill us, have you thought about the consequences?"

Liu Zheng said calmly.

"What are you trying to say?"

The Horn Rifle Hunter frowned.

"This person here is currently highly favored by Great Archbishop Alia."

He pointed at Andrina.

Andrina promptly displayed her "Holy Blood" Hunter insignia.

"I am sowhat known to Master Beethoven as well. We refer to each other on familiar terms; he calls his disciple, and I call him brother,"

Liu Zheng said leisurely.

"If sothing were to happen to either of us, let’s just say not only a few hunters from the Gunpowder Workshop but all of Old Yate might face another purge. Have you cald down now?"

"Is what he said true?"

The Horn Rifle Hunter looked toward Andrina.

He didn’t know Andrina but he knew the status of a "Holy Blood" Hunter.

"Yes, Master Beethoven indeed wants to take this gentleman as his disciple. And indeed, I was sent by Great Archbishop Alia to guide him,"

Andrina nodded.

"..."

The two hunters from the Gunpowder Workshop exchanged glances and made a gesture to their hidden companions.

"What do you want us to help you with?"

The Machine Gun Hunter asked, his tone much calr than before.

After all, they were just quick-tempered, not reckless; otherwise, they wouldn’t have survived in the ruins of Old Yate for so long.

"Help collect the wing tips of giant ravens and the penises of two-headed mutant dogs,"

Liu Zheng said.

"Why do you want these?"

The Machine Gun Hunter asked curiously.

Hunters indeed collected beast materials, but those were used to make equipnt, and these two materials obviously could not be used for forging.

"As I just ntioned, I am a procurent officer sent by Bloody Restaurant to gather ingredients. Collecting these rare ingredients is quite reasonable, right?"

Liu Zheng spread his hands.

"Ingredients..."

The Machine Gun Hunter was sowhat speechless.

Eating mutated beasts was already outrageous, let alone a part like a penis, which he couldn’t imagine anyone would eat.

However, as long as the other party wasn’t hunting beastified residents, there was room for negotiation.

"We need food and fuel."

The Machine Gun Hunter pondered and said.

Old Yate was, after all, a pile of ruins. Although they could barely sustain themselves, their resources were always scarce; they would take anything they could get.

Since they had no compunctions about exploiting the Church’s resources...

"That’s fine. Any problems with that?"

Liu Zheng looked at Andrina.

"This... no problem,"

Andrina hesitated for a mont before saying.

Following Liu Zheng was not rely as a guide; she also had responsibilities for surveillance and communication.

Before setting out, Alia had given her authorization to agree or refuse demands as long as they were within the authorized range.

Of course, Alia had also hinted that she could agree as long as the demands were not excessive.

Not only because she and Liu Zheng had signed a contract, but offending soone capable of effortlessly eliminating Dickens potentially had a heavier cost than appeasing him would.

Food and fuel were naturally within her authorized range; the Church had ruled Yate for so many years, and their accumulated reserves were considerable.

"Very well, any other issues?"

Liu Zheng looked toward the Machine Gun Hunter again.

"Also, release that Beast."

The Machine Gun Hunter nodded toward the charred orc.

"I can do that, but I want its entire burnt skin."

He nodded.

"Impossible!"

The Machine Gun Hunter flatly refused.

"Hey, I can understand your actions, but not allowing us to remove the skin is too much, right? If they attack you, are you guys just not going to fight back and wait for death?"

Liu Zheng complained.

"Of course not, we haven’t reached that level of nobility. It’s just..."

The horned hunter seed to have difficulty articulating.

"Oh, I get it, this Beast was a hunter from the Gunpowder Workshop, right?"

He realized.

"Correct."

Since the other party had guessed it, the horned hunter didn’t deny it.

Although hunters were reluctant to admit it, there was a substantial number each year who turned into beasts.

Moreover, compared to ordinary residents infected with Beastification Disease, hunters who indulged in their killing desires and absorbed countless Blood Resonances posed a much greater threat after their transformation.

"His condition... there’s probably no saving him."

Liu Zheng looked at the charred orc and said.

Already transford to this extent, drinking his blood might just make one vomit up their bone marrow, if he had any.

"You think I don’t know that?"

The Machine Gun Hunter responded irritably.

Those who had started transforming were beyond saving, a well-known fact.

"Do you have more companions suffering from Beastification?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"What do you an?"

The Machine Gun Hunter asked, frowning.

"I an, if you have companions who aren’t fully transford, I might be able to help treat them."

He said.

The hunters from the Gunpowder Workshop were willing to stay among the ruins to protect the Beastified residents as a form of atonent. Their spirit was indeed admirable.

As long as it didn’t interfere with his procurent mission, he was willing to lend a hand.

"Are you serious?!"

The Machine Gun Hunter widened his eyes.

"Do you have anything worth lying to for?"

Liu Zheng raised an eyebrow.

The horned hunter did not speak, only looked at Andrina.

"There are rumors, but I haven’t seen it with my own eyes."

Andrina answered cautiously.

"Co with us, if you can cure our companion, any condition you put forth is acceptable."

The horned hunter deliberated for a long while before saying.

"Then give its skin first."

Liu Zheng said.

"Is there really no chance for treatnt?"

The horned hunter asked with so reluctance.

"I can try, but basically, it’s a done deal."

"Then let’s try it."

The horned hunter clenched his teeth.

"Rudolph!"

The Machine Gun Hunter looked at him in disbelief.

"Rather than living in despair as a beast, it’s better to die hopeful of turning back into a human."

The horned hunter said solemnly.

"..."

The Machine Gun Hunter stared, then silently turned away.

"Since you insist."

Liu Zheng shrugged his shoulders, reaching out to Xia Kai.

"Ah? Oh, right."

Xia Kai hurriedly handed him the boning knife.

Liu Zheng raised the boning knife, and amid the sad eyes of the horned hunter, he sliced open the scalp of the charred orc.
