PFC Chapter 335: Gladiator No. 9
Chapter 335: Gladiator No. 9
Just as he walked out of the Elvis Gang’s stronghold, Yi Beiwang suddenly remembered that he seemed to have another clone in Thorn City.
I have summoned this clone for almost a month, but I haven't remembered to use it. I don't know what he looks like now.
Yi Beiwang activated his skill, shared vision with his clone, and saw his miserable condition.
I saw Yibei (the clone) wandering around Thorn City aimlessly and mechanically, looking more like a beggar than a beggar.
Fortunately, eBay has no self-awareness and does not need to eat, drink, defecate, urinate or sleep, otherwise it would probably rebel.
However, the use of clones is also very large. Take the shared vision as an example. It can be very useful if used well.
Yi Beiwang walked to a deserted place, used Yibei's vision to visually lock onto a stone, and initiated replacement.
When he was brought in front of Yi Bei, Yi Beiwang quickly tidied him up, changed him into new clothes, and put a layer of armor on him.
Then he found an empty house nearby and let Yibei use it as his teleportation anchor.
It would be great if there were more clones, so that we could fill the entire Mojave with humanoid teleportation anchors.
You're thinking too much. It's good enough to have a clone. What else do you expect?
After hiding Yibei, Yi Beiwang walked to the location of Thorn City, lifted the manhole cover and crawled in.
There seemed to be some activity in Thorn City at this time, and there were more people than the last time we came.
Various obstacles are being set up in the arena below, probably because someone is about to challenge a powerful monster.
Manager Lucy was standing on the platform, watching the people working below. Seeing Yi Beiwang coming to Thorn City again, she smiled and said, "Boss Yi, I heard that you made a fortune recently. Are you interested in gambling?"
Yi Beiwang asked doubtfully, "By the way, have I become so famous recently? People in Liberty City can recognize me."
Lucy replied, "Now half of the Mojave people know that you and your eBay business group have occupied the launch base."
"With food and drink, guns and cannons, and even power armor, your caravan can be considered a large one."
"Boss Yi came to Thorn City today. Do you want to see something exciting, or do something exciting?"
Yi Beiwang always felt that something was strange.
It's been less than half a month since we took over the launch base. In this wasteland where transportation basically relies on walking and communication basically relies on shouting, can the reputation of the merchant group really expand so quickly?
It seems like someone is behind this...
Yi Beiwang temporarily suppressed his doubts. He had not forgotten that he was here to do serious business.
He looked around and didn't see the postman, so he asked, "Have you seen the postman? I have something important to talk to him about, something urgent."
Lucy shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, the postman hasn't been to Thorn City for a long time, and I don't know where he went."
Yi Beiwang didn't expect to find the postman here, so he wasn't surprised at all. He asked, "I heard some gossip that many people have disappeared in Liberty City and Thorn City recently. Do you know any details or clues?"
Lucy said helplessly, "What clues are there? The people disappeared, not even the bodies were left."
"I believe you also know the special features of Thorn City. It is very close to the New Vegas gambling district. Many merchants come here to trade, and it also attracts many wanderers and mercenaries."
"But just two months ago, people started to disappear in Thorn City. At first we thought it was an enemy seeking revenge, but a few days later the enemy also disappeared."
"We also thought that maybe someone was capturing slaves on a large scale, but there are still many children and elderly people who are unable to work missing, and the rate of missing persons among the disabled is even higher."
This is strange. It is understandable to capture people as slaves, but what is the point of capturing the elderly, children and the disabled?
Just as I was thinking about it, a competition started in the arena below.
Yi Beiwang saw Kane, the boss of the Khorne gang, walking into the arena. He had power gloves on both arms and his body was bulging with muscles. He looked like a human Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Faced with the giant mantises and mutant scorpions that rushed out, Kane punched each of the monsters one by one and killed them in no time, with an expression of dissatisfaction on his face.
As if noticing the gaze, Kane raised his head and looked at Yi Beiwang. He said nothing, but just showed off his muscles and then continued to fight with the mutant creatures he released.
Yi Beiwang saw this and asked Lucy, "Do you think it was done by the four major gangs?"
Lucy shook her head and said, "That shouldn't be the case. Aren't they also looking to you to buy water and food? This shows that they can't afford to support their people."
"Come to think of it, I haven't seen many minions from the four major gangs recently. They can't be missing too."
"By the way, if you really want to investigate these matters, I suggest you ask the families of those missing persons. There happens to be a suitable person there."
Looking in the direction Lucy pointed, a burly gladiator with a scar on his face was standing there looking at the arena.
At this moment, he seemed to have just finished the competition not long ago, and his hands were still covered in blood, which he was wiping clean bit by bit with a dirty cloth.
Seeing Yi Beiwang looking at him, there was no reaction. He was just quietly doing his own thing, and his eyes seemed a little gloomy.
Yi Beiwang walked up to him, handed him a bottle of water, and asked, "What's your name?"
The gladiator did not take the bottle of water. He looked at Yi Beiwang with a scrutinizing gaze. After a while, he replied, "No title. I don't have a name."
"If you must give me a whole title, just call me Number Nine, the Ninth Gladiator."
"So, the big boss of the business group came to see me today. Is there some important job for me to do?"
