Chapter 764: Chapter 764: I Sincerely Want to Talk

"Hey, why are you opening the door?!" The man inside the city bellowed at the driver, but the driver, with a guitar string wrapped around his neck, didn’t dare to speak and desperately signaled to the others with his eyes.

The bus was filled with people, fourteen beautiful, frightened young girls, and five ragged desperadoes, one of whom was injured in the chest and was bandaging himself in the back seat, with two girls lying at his feet, one unconscious with her skirt flipped up, the other dazed with a bloody head.

The girl who just peeked out of the window was being pressed down onto the seat by Bald Head, stepping on her head, while the other three were scattered in the middle of the bus, next to the shivering girls.

Upon seeing Xu Huo, the girl being stepped on suddenly struggled, flipping Bald Head over and opening her mouth in a silent scream for help!

"Smack!" Bald Head slapped her across the face, raised her by her hair, and said grimly, "You think you’re a hero just because you’ve become an Evolver? I’ll decide how you die!"

This was meant for Xu Huo; the doors of the bus were already closed, and the curtains on the windows were drawn. In the enclosed space, the three men, excluding the injured one, stood up.

Xu Huo surveyed the group, "Don’t know how long we’ll be blocked, why don’t we move to the front and talk."

It wasn’t a suggestion; it was a demand.

One of the long-haired, brawny men flicked his hair, "Who do you think you are, daring to act tough in front of the brothers..."

Xu Huo’s gaze lingered on him, and the brawny man instantly choked on his words. Although he was much more robust than Xu Huo, at the meeting of their eyes, his face muscles involuntarily twitched, and sweat broke out on his forehead.

He didn’t utter any harsh words, but just standing there made everyone in the bus feel an unprecedented pressure, a pressure they didn’t know the source of but instinctively feared.

The three men blocking Xu Huo lost their smiles, but they weren’t willing to let it go that easily, and remained stiff on the spot.

Seeing this, Bald Head threw the girl aside and strode menacingly towards Xu Huo. Xu Huo twitched his finger, and just then, the injured man shouted from behind, "Big Head!"

Everyone turned their heads; even Xu Huo turned around to face him directly, leaving his back undefended against Bald Head.

The injured man glanced down at his shoes and chuckled uncomfortably, "Actually, we just wanted to rest for a while in the bus. If you want it, you can have it. We’ll be leaving."

As he spoke, he stood up and walked toward the aisle, but as soon as he did, Xu Huo appeared in front of him... The next second, the injured man fell backwards, blood spraying from his throat, splattering the face of the girl who had just opened her eyes.

The people on the bus must have been affected by a prop and unable to make a sound; they silently screamed, as Xu Huo picked up the short knife that had slipped from the man’s hand and, with a backhand throw, the knife accurately pierced through the driver’s hand reaching for the door.

"Aaah!!!" The driver screamed in agony, Bald Head and the others’ complexions changed, ready to grab a nearby girl to take as a hostage, but before they could turn around, Xu Huo was already standing among them, repeating his earlier words, "Let’s go have a talk in the front."

Cold sweat poured down the men’s faces, and they didn’t dare try anything funny, walking towards the front honestly.

Xu Huo wiped the blood off his shoe and waved his hand for the girls to move to the back, then he himself sat behind the group of men.

The men were terrified to death but didn’t dare to look back, fearful that in the next second their heads would move homes, but Xu Huo really did want to "talk" with them.

"Where are you all from?" he asked.

"A...a small city, almost burned down by players. We escaped," the tall, strong man immediately replied.

"Besides the official safe routes published by the government, do you players not know any other shortcuts?"

"There used to be some... but now it’s uncertain, I personally saw several players get swallowed by a newly generated random dungeon... Right now, only the government-published routes are relatively safe... but it’s not guaranteed. The roads are blocked now, mostly because something has happened up ahead," Bald Head said in one breath, paused, and then ingratiatingly added, "Big Brother, where do you plan to go? We guys are very familiar with this area; we can guide you and help you fight, no problem at all!"

"I’m going to Mao City, ever heard of it?" Xu Huo said.

"Mao City is quite famous," Bald Head quickly replied, "We used to deliver goods there often."

"Oh? What did you do for work before?" Xu Huo asked.

"I delivered meat," Bald Head said. "The business couldn’t go on, but when I delivered meat, I visited many good places. Mao City is the most prosperous place around here. There’s even a top hotel with kitchens more splendid than the lobbies of ordinary hotels!"

Xu Huo searched on his phone, and the top hotel was the one invested in by the Descendant of the Shang family. After the Descendant of the Shang family committed suicide, the hotel had been donated to the local government and was now outsourced to other enterprises.

"This entrepreneur surnamed Shang, he’s quite famous."

"Famous indeed—many hotels, shopping malls, and even the welfare institute were built by him. Don’t believe me? Just ask the people behind. Among them, two came from the Shang Family Welfare Institute," Bald Head didn’t dare turn his head, just pointed backwards with his hand.

The group of girls was huddled together, shivering. They had been pushed to the back and tried to seek help from the outside world, but now everything was chaos. Both the government and the talent agencies couldn’t look after them. Banging on the windows, they tried to ask for help from people outside, but those people, seeing the blood on them, immediately closed their windows tight.

The windows couldn’t be broken, as this minivan was specially reinforced. They had no way to smash them, and the emergency tools were all placed near the driver’s seat.

Although Xu Huo had killed a person, that did not guarantee he was any better than Bald Head and the others. A group of young women, their faces smeared with makeup, curled up to make themselves smaller and prayed that Xu Huo and his companions would leave soon.

"Welfare Institute?" Xu Huo turned around.

The girl who had been hit by Bald Head earlier stepped forward with a swollen cheek, pointing bravely to her throat.

Xu Huo tapped on the back of the seat in front of him.

Bald Head immediately blew his whistle, and as the girl touched her throat, tears of joy rolled down her face. She knelt to the ground and said, "Please save us, we are a girl group under the Mao City talent agency. There are kids of several well-known entrepreneurs in the group. If you take us to a safe place, the company will definitely give you a lot of money... whatever items you want, they’ll surely find a way to get them for you!"

Xu Huo handed her a handkerchief, signaling her to sit up and clean her face, "Wipe your face. Just became an Evolver?"

The girl nervously took it, wiped her face as instructed, and with a shaky voice answered, "Just a day or two ago, I haven’t harmed anyone..."
