Chương 7: Chapter 6
I seem to have found the reason why this trail was abandoned we had come across two more carts filled with things. The first one we came across seemed to be catered to a slinger's every need I grabbed a case of extra shells just in case, and another few baggie of slug food for Kilowatt, and Anan. The blasters that were left in the cart were too old and seemed to be unstable at best. Most of the gear seemed to be the same as the blasters too old to be safely used, so we had left the remaining items behind.
The second cart looked fairly new this one was filled with little everyday items silverware, flashlights, a camera that I took, we also found another secret hatch hidden under some old rope it had another big bag of gold in it… and of course we took it. Grabbing a long piece of cordage my backpack was full so I moved on. Other than that it was rather peaceful with the occasional hostile slug hounds but Anan, and Kilowatt quickly delt with them. Which brings me to another point: slugs are scary powerful. Like seriously some of the attacks that Anan, and Kilowatt can just throw around like it's nothing is scary, kilowatt can one shot a slug hound, and the time I slung him at a slight sound he had fried up one of the mushrooms by clinging to it for like two seconds, and don't even get me started on Anan, heck his first shot distroyed a several ton boulder when he slammed into a slug hound it went flying and landed not moving. When that had happened I quickly realized that these slugs were dangerous, and that made me seriously worried about the society I was walking towards. People slung these things at each other for fun. Not to mention the gouls that were not just more powerful but also more vicious and violent than normal slugs and that didn't paint the prettiest picture of the world under the surface.
As my thoughts spiraled deeper and deeper into the depths of the corrupt system that was slugterra, we came upon the scene of another cart. At first I thought it was another abandoned one, but the screaming and shouting that was demanding the owner to give them all their money quickly made the situation very clear. Now I just needed to decide what I was going to do. On the one hand, helping might get me robbed of all my possessions I was practically a rich man, on the other I could help him potentially gain a friend or at the very least a friendly acquaintance, and I saved someone from being robbed…
Quickly loading Kilowatt I took aim at the the big guy with the blaster held in the older gentleman's face that was demanding payment for "let you pass alive"
"Non-lethal amounts please Kilowatt," getting the single chip to indicate that he had heard me, I double checked my aim and fired. Kilowatt fired out of the shell with the customary sound, onece he reached the required level of speed he transformed with a victorious look he fired out an arc of electric energy as the bandit turned around stunned and was… well stunned, he fell to the ground out cold.
Having been running since I fired Kilowatt I quickly scooped him up in a new shell and reloaded him into my blaster keeping my blaster trained on the thief as I check on the old man.
"Are you alright sir?" I questioned the man throwing him a side glance he was older mid sixties was my guess he had a thick head of hair that was a pure white, he had deep laugh lines and his eyes sparkled with a hidden smile but his face was serious as he nodded.
"Yes thank you young man I was afraid that I would become the victim of yet another random thievery attempt!" Asserting that the old man was okay I took a closer look at the goon he was wearing a all black outfit with a familiar red insignia. Crouching down I flipped him over so he was facing the ceiling of the cavern, and just like I had suspected he had the black insignia.
"This is that black's doing isn't it?" Turning my head slightly I saw the man out of the corner of my eye. Standing up I let out a deep sigh "I think so," I confessed, he nodded then gestured at the cart "I'll get a set of cuffs, if you'll keep an eye on him then we can take him to the jail," I nodded and he got the cuffs, rolling him onto his back with my boot I quickly cuffed him and took his blaster his slugs were long gone so I didn't worry about that. I slung the bigger man over my shoulders and carried him to the cart, think 'well it looks like I just made an enemy of the black company.'
