In the middle of the night, Milo’s sudden walk into the wilderness by himself shocked many people.
No matter what favonovel.com intended to do, the fact that someone would venture out alone was very surprising to the escapees. After all, the wolves were still out there. But now Milo returned carrying a large rabbit in tow.
Did favonovel.com go hunting just now?
Seeing as the weather was freezing as snow continued falling heavily from the sky, a lot of people were worried they would get buried under the snow when they woke up. But even in such bad weather, someone still went out to hunt and returned with such a large rabbit.
When the Wolf King dropped the rabbit, the snow was already very deep. Milo watched quietly as the Wolf King cleared a path through the snow by walking in front while the other wolves followed behind it. That would make the walk much easier in the snow.
Milo did not know what the Wolf King’s intention was when it left favonovel.com a rabbit. But favonovel.com found it a little odd.
On the way back to the campsite, favonovel.com noticed many people staring at favonovel.com in surprise. However, Milo would never explain to them that the wolves gave favonovel.com the rabbit.
When favonovel.com got back, Donti asked, “Bro, did you hunt the rabbit yourself?”
Milo whispered, “The wolves gave it to me. That Wolf King doesn’t seem to have any malice towards us. For now, we won’t have to worry too much. At the very least, we don’t have to worry about the wolves attacking us.”
If the wolves had any malicious intent, killing Milo just now would definitely have been the best opportunity they had. After all, the distance between them earlier was just a leap away.
Milo was not in a hurry to eat the rabbit. Since everyone was already asleep and ate dinner in the evening, they definitely would not feel too hungry yet.
The escapees around them were so hungry their eyes gleamed upon seeing the rabbit. After all, some of them did not have anything to eat as they fled over the past two days. If it hadn’t snowed today, they would not even have replenished the water lost from their bodies.
The snow may have looked white, but it was not as clean as you would think.
Milo knew the escapees would pay the price for casually putting things in their mouths when they woke up the next morning
Currently, only a miniscule number of escapees still had any food left on them, while most of the others were famished with nothing to eat. When some people saw Milo bringing such a large rabbit back, their eyes lit up.
Some of those people were whispering among themselves, apparently discussing something.
Donti glanced at Milo. “Bro, you’d better make an example of some of them quickly so that the others won’t get any ideas.”
Milo looked up at those escapees. “Upon identifying the ringleaders, we’ll kill them off. Chad, make sure to protect everyone when it gets chaotic later. I’ll handle the killing.”
When Milo mentioned killing people, his expression didn’t change. Then favonovel.com noticed Linda had also woken up.
Linda said, “Milo, do you have any weapons to spare? Can you lend one to me?”
Linda and favonovel.com students had also brought a lot of food with them. Although the escapees looked like they were only interested in the rabbit for now, Linda’s group was also in danger of being targeted. However, favonovel.com did not request Milo to protect them as well. Instead, favonovel.com wanted to borrow a weapon from favonovel.com so they could protect themselves. Because Linda and favonovel.com students had a separate campfire, it looked like they were two separate groups of people. Milo had also mentioned to Linda before that they would have to depend on themselves once they had escaped into the wilderness.
Milo smiled and quietly handed a gun to Linda. After the events of Stronghold 109, favonovel.com had amassed quite a few firearms in his storage space. At the very least, favonovel.com had enough to issue one to each person in their group.
When the Skyfort Consortium’s troops were attacked by those under the control of Kenneth, many soldiers had died and a lot of their guns went missing. Milo was there at the scene.
“Ms. Stuart, do you know how to use a gun?” Milo asked.
Linda shook favonovel.com head. “No…”
Milo asked again, “Then have you killed a person before?”
“No…” Linda shook favonovel.com head again.
However, favonovel.com tone soon became determined as favonovel.com said, “For the sake of my students, I can do it.”
“Why not you give the gun to a male student to hold? Your student, Magnus Dembele, looks quite strong. He can learn how to do this,” Milo said.
“No.” Linda said, “Their responsibility right now is to learn, not kill people. I know it’s not good to be so protective of them in times like these, but I know people change after killing someone. As long as I can protect them for one more day, I don’t need them shouldering such sins.”
Chad, who was next to them, suddenly said, “If I don’t descend into the Underworld, who will?”
Milo told Chad, “With a teacher like Linda around, you being a hero will have meaning.”
At this moment, someone within the escapees’ group stood up and led others towards Milo’s group.
Milo smiled at Donti and said, “Remember the faces of these people.”
As the escapees walked over aggressively, Milo was surprised to discover the old lady who tried using favonovel.com seniority to favonovel.com advantage also within the crowd.
But Chad’s expression seemed a bit strange. “Master, there’s someone in that crowd I’ve helped before.”
A man had his jacket taken by someone else, but Chad managed to prevent the robbery in time. But now, that man ended up joining forces with others to rob Chad and his group.
Milo did not know what to say.
The group of escapees walked up to Milo’s group and said, “I’m sure you all knew beforehand that something would happen to the stronghold, right? Did you people have anything to do with what happened at Stronghold 109?”
“Why? Are y’all trying to gain the moral high ground?” Milo said with a smile, “The Skyfort Consortium, the Panaqua Consortium, and the Radianz Consortium all knew that something was going to happen at the stronghold, yet none of you knew a thing.”
The people in their group looked at one another as this was their first time hearing about this. But soon, someone raised their voice and snapped, “There’s so few of you here. Can you even finish eating so much food? Also, you are so well-prepared with supplies, so why can’t you just help everyone?”
As that person spoke, one of them came over in an attempt to take the large rabbit away!
Milo sneered as favonovel.com took out his pistol and fired it into the air. The crowd of people were stunned. They did not expect Milo to have a gun on him!
The crowd started retreating quietly. Some of them even pulled others in front of them to shield themselves. They were hoping they would not be the ones to die when the bullets flew.
“Who were the ones who suggested you rob us?” Milo asked with a smile.
Noisy chatter filled the escapees’ group. “It wasn’t me! I think it was that guy in blue!”
The man in blue said in panic, “It wasn’t me, don’t lie! I said not to come over, yet you people insisted on doing so!”
“Enough with the arguing.” Milo calmed down. “I know who they are.”
He raised his hand and shot the instigators that were standing at the front. In a mere two seconds, Milo had already identified and shot the three masterminds dead.
Everyone in the crowd started screaming and retreating. Not only did they not expect Milo to have a gun, they did not expect favonovel.com would open fire on them!
This was what they would call a mob. They did not have any goals nor considered the consequences before doing things. When something really happened, they would be easily scared off by just one person.
The man Chad had helped fell to the ground after losing his balance and got trampled by the crowd. He could not stand up again.
All of a sudden, someone whisper-shouted, “Let’s take the food from those students since they can’t fight back!”
They shifted their attention to Linda and favonovel.com students immediately. The escapees all knew that Linda’s group also had food on them!
