Watching the flashes of swords and blades on Kallen's side, and then watching Kiana and the undead dead soldier's god-like fight, Shu increasingly felt that the fire axe in his hand was like chicken ribs.
But he didn't want to leave the battlefield and watch the show on the sidelines.
He wasn't injured, nor was he so tired that he couldn't move. How could he stand on the sidelines, like a certain guy, with his hands in his pockets, watching the show?
Shu glared at Otto resentfully, attracting Otto's alert gaze.
Shu sighed and began to think about how to squeeze out his remaining value.
Unfortunately, the times Shu was most resourceful were when he was in games exploiting certain "human companions." Shu was really unfamiliar with squeezing out value.
"If you still want to help, maybe you can try to find Kallen and Kiana some weapons." Otto's voice drifted from the side and entered Shu's ears.
As expected, you're good at this! Thank you, best roadside lamp ornament.
Shu suddenly realized. He gave Otto a thumbs-up, then quickly ran toward Kallen.
Otto's smile froze for a moment. He felt that Shu wasn't thinking of anything good.
"Kallen!" Shu ran to about ten steps away from Kallen and waved the fire axe in his hand. "Catch!"
Kallen looked back and saw what Shu was holding, then, very decisively, kicked one of the dead soldiers away.
Shu: "?"
Do you really need a weapon?
Taking advantage of this gap, Kallen quickly ran out of the dead soldiers' encirclement, ran to Shu, and took the fire axe.
"Thanks!" Kallen said, then turned around and fought the two dead soldiers who were chasing her.
Hey, this person is quite polite!
Shu looked back at Otto, bewildered, pointing at Kallen, who had switched her attacks to slaughter. His eyes were full of questions that said, "*What did you teach this person?*"
Otto gave a smug smile.
Shu stood still for a while, and then he looked at the other battlefield.
Kiana also needs a weapon!
But he only had a broken fire extinguisher left on his hand…
Shu's eyes lit up. He turned and ran to the pile of dead soldiers, grabbed the scythe again, and pried open the stubborn five fingers one by one.
"Look at you, you don't even make a living with this thing, why are you being so stubborn?" The dead soldier's thumb was particularly stubborn. Shu was mumbling.
The dead soldier was lying on the ground, its orange-yellow eyes staring straight at Shu.
Shu felt a little creepy. He now understood why the two people who had killed Zhang Fei were scared half to death when they found that Zhang Fei's eyes were open.
"It's useless even if you stare at me like this!" Shu quickened his movements, while also keeping his mouth running. "How much do you get paid a day? Oh no, how much Honkai energy do you get a day that you're working so hard? You can't even move now. What's the point of holding on to this broken scythe?
"We were all humans once. Let go, and consider this your last time helping yourself, alright? Give me some face, okay?"
The dead soldier: "…"
"Whoa! Success!" Shu pried open the last finger, then, carrying the scythe, scrambled to his feet. He even remembered to thank the "resentful" dead soldier.
"Kiana!" Shu ran over with the scythe. By this time, Kallen had already taken down all the dead soldiers, and Bronya had even stuck her gun into the nostrils of the two archer dead soldiers.
The only ones left standing… floating…
The only one left with fighting ability was the undead dead soldier. Suddenly, the situation became that the undead dead soldier was fighting five people.
Kallen, plus the main three, plus Theresa. This lineup was so luxurious that it was enough for the undead dead soldier to brag about it for a whole year among the other dead soldiers.
And their role was to send this dead soldier to see the other dead soldiers!
With the addition of Kallen and Theresa, Kiana, who had been in intense combat, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and temporarily retreated.
"Kiana! Are you okay?" Shu ran to Kiana's side. Looking at Kiana, who was covered in sweat and breathing heavily, Shu couldn't help but look her up and down.
"Don't worry! This miss is still a hundred years away from getting hurt by that guy!" Although Kiana looked a little disheveled, she still straightened her body in front of Shu.
"It's good that you're okay." Seeing Kiana like this, Shu breathed a sigh of relief, then handed the scythe to Kiana. "Here, this is the best in the village… cough cough. Here, your weapon!"
Kiana's eyes lit up. "Wow! Shu! You actually managed to snatch the dead soldiers' scythes!"
Kiana took the scythe and swung it around. She felt it was a bit unwieldy, but the strength of the scythe had already surprised her.
"Ooooh! I feel like my whole body is full of power!" Kiana yelled, raising the scythe and rushing back into the fight.
"Huu..." Seeing that the situation had gotten better, Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease putting his hands in his pockets.
"Hmm, that was quite a wonderful battle." Otto walked to Shu's side with a smile. Shu gave him a hard eye roll.
Otto chuckled. He didn't mind the contempt that Shu was exuding. "It seems that you are also facing these dead soldiers for the first time?"
Shu's lips twitched, then he nodded.
He had surrendered.
Otto didn't ask anything more. Instead, he walked to a fallen dead soldier, squatted down, and began to observe the dead soldier up close.
He wasn't simply watching the show. Just like how he tracked and observed the habits of Honkai beasts, Otto had already seen the behavioral standards of these three dead soldiers during the previous chaotic battle.
They had no highly independent consciousness, but they were more rational than zombies. These were a group of dead soldiers that could analyze, coordinate at a basic level, and even form physical reflexes.
He just didn't know if these dead soldiers were summoned by the floating dead soldier like Shu said, or if they were wild dead soldiers that had gathered together.
Or were they together since birth?
Otto's expression was a bit dark.
He strongly suspected that these dead soldiers could form a terrifying army under certain circumstances.
After studying them carefully for a while, Otto stood up and looked at the group who had already pinned the undead dead soldier to the ground.
"Are you ready? We can depart after we inspect the train again." Otto took out a handkerchief, wiped his hands, and smiled at everyone.
"Ah?" Shu was stunned. "You're not going to take any samples?"
"Are you going to provide me with research equipment? Or do you have some cheap preservation methods?" Otto threw the handkerchief on the ground, covering the dead soldier's face. "Of course, perhaps you can borrow two more weapons from these dead soldiers. Remember to say thank you."
"Forget it." Shu said with a bitter face, looking at Otto with a smile. "I might as well go to the security room to get some equipment. There are riot shields there. They'd be quite suitable for me."
He knew that Otto had been watching him the whole time.
