Chapter 96 Sequence - Fire Man
Chapter 96 Sequence - Fire Man
"Snapped!"
The second person to jump out was a beautiful young woman who casually slapped the first rude young man on the back of the head.
"How many times have I told you? When you're out and about, you should make more friends. Is this how you make friends?"
"Hey bro, don't be shy. This is just how my brother is. Are you alone? Want to join my team?"
They didn't seem to notice the fire train convoy on the edge while they were fighting.
"Brother Huo, you got hammered by Sister Lily again? You never learn!" The speaker was a boy with a radish-like head who looked to be about the same age as Xiao Luo.
Several more people emerged from the blazing chariot: a burly man, a college student wearing glasses, and a shy girl who only showed half her face at the doorway.
This looks like he's the core of the team.
"How did this kid survive until now? Where's your convoy? Why are you the only one who came up here to steal chickens?" The one who spoke was the burly man with his arms crossed.
The burly man crossed his arms and his gaze swept over Xu Si and the ominous scarlet SUV behind him like a hawk, his eyes filled with undisguised scrutiny.
However, it is clearly not as big as the Tashan.
"Stealing chickens? You mean those two 'scorpions' that helped you share the burden? Do you want me to lure them back and return them to you?"
Xu Si could easily tell that they were almost at their limit, otherwise they wouldn't have all come out at once.
"you!"
The red-haired youth known as "Fire Bro" glared, and a scorching aura emanated from his body, causing the surrounding air to distort slightly.
"Fire Man! If you keep this up, go back!" The beautiful young woman spoke again, her voice still carrying a smile, but her eyes were sharper as she forcefully stopped her younger brother's agitation.
Xu Si couldn't help but glance at the fire man a few more times. No wonder he was said to have a bad temper; it must be the effect of the sequence cost.
The young woman looked at Xu Si with interest: "Young man, you have some nerve, daring to come up and talk to me all by yourself. But... it seems you didn't come alone, did you? Let your team leader speak to you!"
As she spoke, her gaze seemed to unintentionally sweep in the direction Xu Si had come from.
Clearly, the "Flame Chariot" also has strong reconnaissance capabilities and may have already discovered Fu Xiaojian and his group.
"Old Fu! Old Fu! If you can communicate, come on up!" Xu Si said to the convoy behind him through the walkie-talkie.
"Received! Received!"
Shortly after Xu Si sent out the communication, the low roar of an engine came from behind the sand dunes in the distance.
Fu Xiaojian's Mengshi truck appeared first on the horizon, followed by Shao Bing's ambulance, Su Su's pickup truck and the two slightly dilapidated SUVs, as well as Tashan's bus.
The convoy maintained a defensive formation and slowly approached, finally stopping behind Xu Si's "Messenger of Molten Wax".
Fu Xiaojian pushed open the car door and got out.
After advancing to Sequence 2, his calm and composed demeanor befitting a "lord" became even more pronounced.
His gaze calmly swept over the massive and menacing fortress-like body of the "Flame Chariot," finally settling on the young woman and the red-haired youth, and he nodded slightly.
"The Salvation Train Team, Fu Xiaojian, Sequence 2 - Lord." His voice was not loud, but clear and powerful.
"Lord? Interesting." The young woman's eyes brightened, and her smile deepened.
"I am Lin Li, the leader of 'Flame Chariot,' a Sequence 2 Adventurer; this is my younger brother, Fireman, also a Sequence 2 Fireman." She pointed to the still sulking red-haired youth beside her and gestured to the people behind her.
"Zhuang Guodong, Sequence 2 - Barrier; Xiao Zhi, Sequence - Scholar; Aya, Sequence - Listener."
Zhuang Guodong is the burly man, Xiao Zhi is the bespectacled college student, and Aya is the girl who hid directly in the Flame Chariot. She seems to be an ultimate human.
"And there's also me, Lin Xiaotian, Sequence—Brave One."
Fu Xiaojian was surprised. He had thought that the caravan would have a Sequence 3, after all, that cannon shot was really powerful. Now it seems that it was the artifact's own blessing that made it so.
"Nice to meet you." Fu Xiaojian's expression remained unchanged.
"We followed the directions given by the miracle merchant Jia Zhenxin, and we never expected to meet you all here."
"Old Jia?" Lin Li raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in her smile.
"That old fox has come after you too? It seems the 'Martial God Car Team' thing has attracted quite a few people."
"We did receive an invitation," Fu Xiaojian said frankly.
"I wonder if your team is here for the same reason?"
"Of course!" Fire Man blurted out, his tone still very impetuous.
"The bizarre drop of the mid-tier sequence, and that awakening potion—we, the 'Flame Chariots,' are determined to get them! Your small, insignificant team had better not get in our way!"
"Fire Man!" Lin Li glared at him, then turned to Fu Xiaojian with a smile.
"Team Leader Fu, please don't take offense. My younger brother's sequence is a bit special; he's very straightforward. But speaking of which, since we share the same goal, perhaps we can cooperate? That young man just now..." She turned her gaze to Xu Si, who was still leaning against the car window.
"His skills are quite impressive; he was able to take down two 'sand crocodiles' on his own. Such strength is rare in the wilderness."
Her words seemed like a compliment, but in reality, she was also testing Xu Si's background and the team's overall strength. After all, apart from Fu Xiaojian introducing himself, everyone else had shrewdly avoided mentioning their rank.
Of course, it was more likely influenced by Xu Si.
Fu Xiaojian looked at Xu Si, and Xu Si nodded slightly.
"Cooperation is negotiable," Fu Xiaojian said.
The current convoy is clearly weak, but with the support of the Flame Chariots, it is still terrifying.
Being able to form a cooperative alliance with a strong team in advance obviously gives you an advantage when facing other teams.
"Thank you so much for your help, young man. May I ask your name?"
Lin Li looked around and felt that the hooded boy in front of her was more capable, so she had to be more cautious.
"Xu Si." Xu Si's answer was concise, his scarlet star-like eyes sweeping across Lin Li and Huo Nan's faces with a calm scrutiny.
"Good, even more arrogant than me, and just as bad as me." Fire Man was the first to speak, which stemmed from his recognition of Xu Si's strength.
His gaze lingered for a moment longer on Xu Si's "Melting Wax Messenger," which was clearly specially enhanced. It was obviously a rare item, just like the "Flame Chariot."
What's your car's ranking?
Fireman's question was direct and abrupt, carrying an almost naive arrogance, as if in his eyes, the vehicle rankings were like medals of power, more real than any sequence description.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on Xu Si, and even Su Su, Ta Shan and others showed interest.
Because they also did not know the specific ranking of Xu Si's vehicles.
Xu Si, leaning against the car window, didn't move. He didn't answer immediately, but instead asked, "How many units are in your 'Flame Chariots'?"
The fire-man paused for a moment, then grinned, his smile brimming with undisguised smugness: "Telling you won't hurt, our 'Flame Chariot'—ranks within the top 1000, its rare item ranking—911!"
911!
This number shocked everyone in the salary train team.
With such a high ranking, the [Melting Wax Messenger] probably can't handle it!
He had just checked the latest rankings of the [Wax Messenger].
After devouring the [Chi-tailed Shark Crocodile], the [Wax Messenger]'s ranking has risen from 2611 to 2490.
Let alone a thousand, we're still a ways off from two thousand.
"2490," Xu Si said calmly.
There was no embarrassment in the fact that the oddity was ranked lower.
