Chapter 287: Meet Mitch and the Living Scorpion
Chapter 287: Meet Mitch and the Living Scorpion
If there hadn't been the attack on Hermann, Scorpion and the rest of Adecado's fighters would still be alive and well.
To be honest, Ling Luxian really wanted to meet this brother that Panam had been talking about all the time.
"Follow."
Panam walked in front to lead the way, and Ling Luxian followed closely.
Since this was Ling Luxian's first time at the Adecardo Camp, the wanderers here were all very new to him, especially his attire, which showed at first glance that he was from Night City.
Some people saw Ling Luxian following Panam and teased him, "Hey! Panam, when did you bring a little lover from Night City?"
"Screw you!"
Panam was not polite at all and gave the person who spoke the finger.
"Don't take it too seriously, these idiots are just joking."
Ling Luxian didn't mind it much. On the contrary, he was still observing the customs and habits of the Adekado camp.
The Adekado camp is located under an abandoned wind farm.
Although it is abandoned, it is actually somewhat useful.
It can be seen that this was decided by the leader of Adekado in order to save energy.
Although wind power generation is somewhat uncontrollable, it can still save some energy, and the thing that the Badlands lack the least is wind.
The gathering places here are all built on large trucks, with converted houses where people can get on top and get off the trucks.
The decoration style is very simple, just like the bad land. The decoration is too good, and when the wind blows, the dust will still fall.
The advantage of this style of doing things is that you can move your position at any time. Just say you want to move, and it won't take long for everything here to be moved out.
The people of Adecado were poor in material terms, but not in spirit. In broad daylight, some people would take out their guitars, sit by the fire, play guitars and sing songs.
Ling Luxian thought that he should bring his brothers to Adecado for a visit. This kind of lifestyle could not be experienced in Night City.
When we walked to a tent, we saw the owner of the tent was moving a red plastic chair and basking in the sun.
The man saw Panam coming over and asked, "No, Panam, are you really going to do this?"
"Someone has to do it."
“Well…” The man crossed his arms and continued, “You know you can’t do it on your own, right?”
Panam responded with the same words, "Someone has to do this."
After turning a few corners, we arrived at a car repair shed and reached the destination that Panam mentioned.
"Where are Scorpion and Mitch? They said they were meeting here."
Carol, who was repairing the car, was a rare technical expert in the Adecado camp. He was good at repairing cars and guns. The Thunder that Panam had was modified by Carol.
There are three people next to Carol. One is Cassidy, an old cowboy who is good at using revolvers. If he was born in the West, he would definitely be a top sharpshooter.
The other one is Teddy, one of Adecado's fighters. Uh... he doesn't have much of a special feature. The only special thing about him is that he, Carol, and Bob are a close friend of his.
There is another one, Bob, who is quite unique. He wears an auxiliary device on his left hand, and it seems that he is also one of the technical experts of Adecado.
Carol looked at the engine of the car in front of him and said without looking up: "They are going to collect information and may arrive at any time. Hmm... maybe there is some problem with the coupling."
Carol took out the tool, tightened the coupling, and then looked up at Panam. Then, his eyes were attracted by the Ling Luxian behind Panam.
Ling Luxian extended his hand in a friendly manner and greeted Carol.
"You never mentioned anything about foreign aid. Can this pretty boy do it?"
Ling Luxian shrugged and let Panam explain himself.
"More people is always a good thing. Besides, Pilot is a well-known mercenary in Night City. His methods are definitely tough."
Ling Luxian said: "Let's stop chatting and tell me about your plans."
Panam looked back at Ling Luxian and said, "We are going to fight in secret. If we attack head-on with so few people, we will die. Mitch and Scorpion will go to prepare intelligence. I will cover you when the time comes. You sneak into the camp of the Luan Dao Society."
"No way? Just the few of us?"
Ling Luxian heard Panam's tone, as if even if he was included, there were only four people. It seemed that Carol and the other three were just background boards, just waiting for Mitch in their territory.
Teddy explained hurriedly: "It's not that I don't want to go. Who doesn't want to kill a few night-wandering ghosts for fun? But it's just that..."
Teddy hesitated and couldn't explain clearly.
Carol had a bad temper. When he heard Ling Luxian's questioning words, he got angry. "Open your eyes and take a look! The damn supply card is in Reno. As for the equipment... I get angry when I mention it.
The rest of us have to solve the supply problem first."
Cassidy added: "We are going upstream and the boat is about to capsize. We have to fix it, but we may not be able to fix it."
"So, we have to do what Thor wants us to do." Carol looked into Ling Luxian's eyes and said.
"..."
These people are in a bit of a tough situation. Their leader has been captured, but they are still thinking about other things.
Well, the supply problem is also a big problem. If the leader is captured for a day or two, it's not a big deal. If he dies, the worst that can happen is that we can elect a new leader. But if there is no food or water, people will die.
Therefore, it is actually a wise choice for Carol and his team to be concerned about the supply issue.
But no matter how you look at it, they seem a little cold to Thor, right? It can be seen that these guys still have a lot of opinions about Thor leading the tribe.
Fortunately, Mitch and the others came back soon.
Mitch was still the same, wearing a military vest, but the M-shaped bald spot on his forehead was not particularly obvious. It was obvious that his hair fell out so quickly after Scorpion died.
This time, I actually saw a living scorpion.
This guy looks quite young. He wears a leather hood. I don’t know if it’s to protect against wind and sand or to look cool.
Ling Luxian personally felt that it was quite hot to be dressed like this in the Badlands. It seemed that this guy was probably just trying to show off.
"Panam, who is this?"
Since that incident didn't happen, Mitch wasn't very familiar with Ling Luxian.
"Oh, he's the helper I hired. He's helped me before. He's the one who helped me take back the goods and the car from the Random Swordsmen." Panam explained to Mitch.
When Mitch heard that Ling Luxian was Panam's benefactor, he also became enthusiastic and shook hands with Ling Luxian.
"Thank you for helping Panam, and for coming to help us rescue Thor this time."
Scorpion was not so polite. He gave Ling Luxian a bear hug and put his arm around Ling Luxian's shoulders, just like the two brothers.
"Adecado never neglects his friends. When you come back this time, I'll treat you to a drink."
Ling Luxian pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly. This guy really is an old general on the stage, who is very good at raising flags.
