Su Ziyu finally took away the handgun from the little girl’s hand.
Then he asked Jie Se for so paint, turned the handgun pink, handed it back to his daughter, and crouched in front of her, whispering softly: "You’re still a child, you can’t play with such dangerous toys."
"Doesn’t it look much better now?"
Poof.
Beside them, Matty couldn’t help but laugh, then covered her mouth, her whole body shaking with laughter.
Su Ying’s delicate and cute little face looked a bit bewildered, but soon she couldn’t help but giggle, hugging Su Ziyu’s neck while holding the little handgun, she tilted her head and pecked his cheek lightly, whispering, "Thank you, Dad."
Her mind was even more mature than Su Ziyu had imagined.
Indeed.
If her mind wasn’t mature enough, how could she have escaped from the Academy?
After Su Ziyu left, Matty couldn’t help but nudge the little girl beside her with her arm, leaned in, and whispered: "Your dad is so fun. He still treats you like a child."
"At first, I thought he was going to take your gun away."
"Who would’ve thought he’d change it to a pink color and hand it back to you."
The little girl turned her head to look at Matty beside her, her big bright eyes looking at her, then she couldn’t help but laugh, her pretty big eyes turned into crescent moons, earnestly saying: "Because that’s what a father is."
Hearing this, Matty looked thoughtful, then sighed, "Your dad is really nice."
He doesn’t want his child to revere violence but must let her learn how to protect herself. If he shouldn’t take her gun away, then paint it a cute pink; that’s the kind of little toy a girl should have.
A whole convoy took more than an hour to set off.
The entire team had over ten vehicles going out, and basically everyone Su Ziyu saw that day was there. Besides, there were so gunn from the Chinese District; so people were unwilling to stay as Scavengers, and now, with a little persuasion from Jie Se, they agreed. If the Water Plant opens, a large group of guards will definitely be needed.
Su Ziyu took his daughter and Matty in a separate off-road vehicle.
Whatever the case, Jie Se had helped him a lot, so he should also help with this task of clearing the Swamp Crab Queen; otherwise, if they do it themselves, there might be significant casualties.
A day’s delay to gain so Source Power Value and to return a favor, building a good relationship, was quite worth it.
His daughter was whispering to Matty in the back.
Su Ziyu didn’t mind his daughter’s closeness with Matty because this young girl was quite nice and wasn’t much different in age from his daughter. Kids still need so peers at this age.
Matty was all alone at Elk Camp.
She seed to treat Su Ying as a sister, and just for daring to risk her life to stop those androids, Su Ziyu had to acknowledge he owed her a big favor.
The convoy drove for a long ti.
After about two or three hours, a dirty little creek appeared in front of Su Ziyu, and Jie Se slowed down the car, opened the window, and said, "We’re almost there."
"Want to try my culinary skills later?"
"These swamp crabs are one to two ters big; the at in their pincers is quite tasty."
Swamp crabs are considered a food source.
Most of their body cannot be eaten, but the at in their pincers tastes quite good, and the pollution value is low. However, dealing with such creatures is difficult, and their at is quite expensive, costing around five or six Bottle Caps to buy a portion.
"Sure." Su Ziyu smiled and said.
Fifteen minutes later.
The entire convoy stopped outside, in front of a large lake area, surrounded by so muddy grounds, with traces of giant claws left on the surface.
"We’ve arrived."
"Everyone, prepare yourselves!" Jie Se jumped down from the vehicle.
He turned to Zhao Ang and said: "Go. Get the weapons down and distribute them to everyone."
Clank clank clank.
Three boxes were carried down, all filled with firearms and ammunition, and Zhao Ang picked up a rocket launcher, fiddled with aiming for a while before putting it down. Noticing Su Ziyu’s gaze, he smiled and said, "Ordinary bullets can’t penetrate the Swamp Crab Queen."
"We can deal with the smaller ones. The big one might need you to handle."
"This rocket launcher can provide you so firepower support."
Most of what was brought over were rifles and machine guns; Jie Se was carrying a six-barrel Gatling heavy machine gun, loading ammunition as he spoke, "Actually, we dealt with it once before."
"When that creature burrows into the lake, there’s not much we can do."
Su Ziyu looked at the swamp in front of them, seemingly noticing his hesitant expression, the little girl earnestly said: "Dad. I can take care of myself."
Beside them, Matty also spoke up at this ti: "I’ll stay with her; I won’t run around, no need to worry."
Su Ziyu nodded, turned, and took out his Anti-Material Sniper Rifle, then began loading Armor-Piercing Bullets. To deal with the Swamp Crab Queen, one had to hit its vital points; shooting it normally was almost ineffective because the shells were too thick. Previously at Polaris, soone had killed the Swamp Crab Queen, using three or five rocket rounds, relying on heavy firepower suppression to solve it.
