New Gods of North America

"There's a fork in the road ahead. Can a horse-drawn carriage run on that road up the mountain?"

At this time, Inissa, who was driving the carriage in front, suddenly shouted without turning her head.

The sound of pursuing horses' hooves was getting closer and closer. Several bullets hit the ground near the rear of the car, and the noise nearby was getting louder and louder.

Wayne, a local, turned his head to look in the direction of the car and raised his voice:

"It's a bit of a stretch, but it's drivable. Let's go over there!"

Wayne and the old driver Inissa's ideas were basically in sync at this time.

If the carriage continued running in the open wilderness, it would sooner or later be surrounded by the pursuing gang members and turned into a hornet's nest.

However, if you go around the mountain road, the opponent's vision and route will be limited.

At least this way the carriage won't be outflanked.

If the distance is close enough, a pistol is also a gun.

"Then sit tight—"

The carriage swerved and suddenly changed direction.

Reverend Hake lost his balance and the bundle of high explosives almost flew out from behind the carriage.

Lina was quick-witted and quickly pulled the bundle of high explosives back from mid-air.

Then she sat down on the floor of the car and began to untie the bundles of dynamite into the original seven sticks, asking:

"Who's going to find some matches?"

Matches are an almost essential item for people in the western wilderness. Even if you don't smoke, you will inevitably need to light torches or campfires.

Wayne was looking at people at this time.

After shooting the nearest gangster with a single shot, he took out a matchbox and threw it at him.

Then continue to pull the bolt to change the bullet.

The high explosives were taken apart, and Reverend Hake picked up the matchbox and was about to take one of the sticks.

"Don't throw it yet, hit them with the corn cob first--"

As Lina spoke, a corn cob flew out from the rear of the car.

The corn cobs that have been dried in the sun are bright orange in color.

After the corn cob fell to the ground in the wilderness, it continued to roll a short distance due to inertia and was still very conspicuous in the afterglow of the setting sun.

“Oh—”

A few horse neighs were heard at the same time from a little closer to the back of the carriage.

Seeing a conspicuous strip-shaped object flying out from behind the carriage, several approaching criminals suddenly pulled the reins at the same time.

The horses that were a little closer raised their front hooves, and the chasing crowd was suddenly left some distance behind by the carriage.

However, the experienced criminals soon realized that something was wrong, and then they slightly bypassed the last stop of the corn cob and continued to speed up and chase it.

Some of the criminals, feeling fooled, continued to fire their guns during the pursuit.

There were a series of gunshots, "bang bang" and "pa pa".

It sounds like Chinese New Year.

The carriage was now slightly raised and began to climb the hill.

Turning a small corner,

Lina held a stick of high explosive and extended the fuse end toward Pastor Hake.

Reverend Hake struck the match and waited a moment, until the sound of the pursuing horses' hooves grew louder again, before he touched the fuse with the flame.

A long strip of high explosive with a yellow outer shell flew out and rolled several times on the mountain road.

Several of the criminals slowed down slightly, went around the sides of the mountain road, and then sped up again to chase.

But there was one brave one,

He felt that he didn't need to be afraid of such little tricks anymore, so he kept on running at the same speed, ignoring the long object rolling over. He even quickened his pace and stepped over the falling high explosives.

The two gangsters following behind his horse also continued to move forward.

“Bang!”

The smoke spread not far away, and the gangster who was hit in the bull's eye was thrown to the side with his horse.

The horse's stomach immediately started rumbling, and the man collapsed to the side.

Both the man and the horse seemed to have skipped the stage of groaning.

The two horses closest to the back were also frightened, and they jumped up with their hooves raised, and fell over.

"Yes!"

Reverend Harker clapped his fist against his palm, straightened up and cheered, banging his head on the roof of the car.

The criminals who were chasing him were also enraged, and without paying any attention to the wounded on the ground, they whipped their horses and continued to speed up.

There were several shots fired from behind, "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!" The bullets hit the carriage, making a bang-bang sound.

Several people quickly lay down in the carriage and retracted their necks.

Wayne made a rough estimate and decided to count the opposite side as having thirty people. He had knocked down two of them with his two shots, so there were only twenty-eight left.

It seems that there are about three casualties in this wave, and there are still twenty-five.

"Bang!"

Wayne pulled the bolt, twenty-four.

Lina was depressed and lay on the floor of the carriage. When the carriage turned a small corner, she threw another corn cob behind the carriage.

A speeding criminal had just turned halfway around the bend when he saw the orange car rolling down the mountain road.

He hurriedly pulled the reins and changed direction to the side.

When changing lanes while turning, do not use the turn signal.

The rear car hits the front car.

So both of them flipped over.

Twenty-two.

If another person overtaking from the side is knocked out, it’s twenty-one.

Another stick of high explosive flew out.

The effect is average.

twenty.

So Lina thought about it, and the corn cob and high explosives flew out at the same time.

The effect is even worse.

The number of criminals in pursuit did not decrease, but the distance between the carriage and them was slightly increased.

Wayne took the opportunity to "bang" off another one, nineteen.

Lina thought about it for a moment and then began to remove the fuse.

Three sticks of high explosive were simply tied together, the fuses of two of them were pulled out, and then they were slightly more carefully intertwined and then preliminarily tied with thread pulled from clothes.

This was a delicate job and took a while.

Meanwhile, Wayne had finished loading the magazine of the bolt-action rifle and replaced the last five bullets.

He also fired a shot, killing another gangster who was too close.

——The last five are all silver patterned exorcist bullets. It’s actually a bit of a waste to use them to hit people.

During this time, Reverend Hake would throw out corn cobs from time to time.

The criminals would choose to avoid it at first.

After a few times, they seemed to think that the carriage was running out of ammunition and food and could only bluff, so they chased even more fiercely.

There were only four bullets left in the bolt-action rifle, so Wayne could only use them sparingly and try to shoot only those closest to him.

The special little bomb was finally completed.

As the carriage turned a narrow road, Wayne fired a shot at the man in the front, slowing down the opposing formation slightly.

Then Lina lit the fuse, wrapped it in corn leaves, and threw it to the side of the road.

The cavalry, which had already slowed down slightly and concentrated, tightened its formation even more when passing through the narrow road, and then passed by the explosives without stopping.

"Bang——"

The entire mountain road seemed to shake.

This time even Wayne was "Wuhu" and the three heads in the car all gathered at the rear of the car, waiting to see the result.

Afterwards, it seemed that more than half of the gangsters who came out from the smoke were gone.

Let's count a little bit.

There are only seven gourd brothers left.

Under normal circumstances, if the gang had lost so many members, they would have dispersed long ago.

However, it may be because Wayne only has one carriage, which makes him look easy to bully, and the other party is probably already too angry, so I'm afraid the fight will end to the death.

As a result, the remaining gangsters rushed forward more fiercely, and the lever-action rifles in their hands fired continuously during the charge.

"Bang bang bang bang", a series of bullets hit the carriage.

There was a great commotion in the carriage.

Wayne acted as a meat shield, hiding at the back of the carriage, providing some protection for Lina and Pastor Huck, and then a bullet hit Wayne in the shoulder.

What a pity.

I might have been able to achieve the "no damage" achievement.

With Pastor Hack by his side, Wayne symbolically took off his cowboy scarf and simply bandaged his reddened shoulder.

This time, Wayne felt it specially.

Hit in the shoulder,

The spiritual power required for self-healing is about 5% of your mana bar.

All right,

There were three rifle bullets and one high explosive left.

Inventory is running out.

There weren't many people left on the other side.

It's time to enter the "bayonet fight" stage where the pistol comes into play.
