What is fought for 2

Daryl was stunned at this moment, simply running unconsciously to the side of the road when he heard a familiar voice calling him. He didn't expect the next scene to surprise him.

Caine was even more surprised at this moment. He only intended to stop and grab a bag of supplies, never imagining he would enter such a big battle. But then he saw Daryl running towards the armored vehicle. He would be a fool not to know what was happening at this moment. He understood that he couldn't let the other party enter the vehicle, otherwise, the advantage he could have with his enemies would be lost.

Taking all this into account, Caine raised the barrel of his gun, intending to stop Daryl.

Boom! 

However, the next moment, a bullet hit Caine's hand accurately, causing him to drop the gun and watch as even some of his fingers flew off, then blood began to spurt as he held his hand while screaming.

"Ahhhhh!"

The rest of Caine's group turned their heads aside and naturally saw their captain's bloody essence while Daryl escaped. When Daryl got into the armored vehicle, dozens of gun barrels protruded from the four armored vehicles through small openings. Caine's group, knowing there was no chance of escape, raised their hands. Only Caine, lying on the ground while tightly holding his hand, looked at Daryl with resentment.

"Son of a bitch..."

As soon as Daryl got into the car, he saw Michonne and the others looking concerned. They all celebrated enthusiastically, but soon they realized it wasn't the time for compliments, and they all turned their heads and continued to stare intently at the people outside.

"Cindy, do you recognize anyone here?"

Cindy, the girl who belonged to the Oceanside community before moving to Airon's community, became excited. She was extremely eager to know if any of those men she had dreamed of killing for months were present, and today she finally saw signs of being able to exact her revenge.

A man's voice from the other side's armored vehicle came through the loudspeaker.

"I'll give you ten seconds to drop your weapons, or we will indiscriminately attack once time is up!"

"Ten..."

At that moment, the few people who had their weapons raised had no idea who to aim at. While they did well not to shoot, which indirectly saved their lives.

When the countdown was about to end, someone finally couldn't bear the pressure and decisively dropped their weapon.

They were just men who recently learned to shoot, not lunatics, and they didn't have the courage to attack those armored vehicles where they knew perfectly well they couldn't cause any harm.

"You damn cowards!" Despite Caine's desperate shouts and curses from the ground, he couldn't stop them.

Seeing someone step forward and throw down their weapon, the rest lost the courage to continue the confrontation. They dropped their weapons one after another and raised their hands up. At this moment, some people finally got out of the opposing armored vehicle, and one of them was George.

Five people got out of each car, a total of twenty people plus Daryl surrounded Caine's team in the middle of the road.

George waved his hand, and several soldiers came out and collected all the weapons thrown by the other group onto the ground, and one of them went straight to Caine and tightly held the blood-stained pistol.

After collecting the weapons, there was another round of careful body searches, and after confirming that the other party was completely harmless, George nodded.

Caine originally thought that the other party would kill them on the spot or that they wanted to use these people as bargaining chips for something else. At this moment, the desire to survive outweighed the pain in his hands, immediately prompting him to say a few words to try to get out of this terrible situation.

"Listen, whatever you want, we can pay for it, so don't harm us!"

Some of the young people also reacted quickly, nodding vigorously and hastily saying, "Yes, as long as you don't kill us, we'll give you a lot for ransom. We have plenty of supplies in our base, so you won't lose out."

Due to Daryl's presence, the base must have been exposed. The most important thing now is to save their lives. Seeing that the other party is looking for something and doesn't immediately shoot them, there is room for negotiation.

But George completely ignored them, instructing the rest to stay alert, and gestured for Daryl and Michonne to step aside.

The three of them boarded the armored vehicle directly, leaving Caine and a group of people staring wide-eyed.

Cindy suddenly emerged from the crowd and stood in front of Caine. She slowly crouched down, looked at the old animated boy, and said in a cold tone, "Do you still remember me?"

Caine could clearly feel the murderous intent in this woman's eyes. He had seen the gaze of an enemy too many times. He searched his memory extensively, but the appearance of the girl in front of him didn't trigger any recollection.

But he understands that the conditions to save his life can be negotiated now, but he shouldn't give in easily. Although he doesn't know what kind of community these people belong to and why they have such sophisticated equipment, they also have a decent strength.

Thinking of this, Caine looked at Cindy and said indifferently, "Many people know me, who are you, darling?"

Cindy's voice was as cold as overflowing ice thorns from her lips, making Caine unable to avoid feeling a sense of foreboding.

"Do you remember the elders you killed in that island community?"

"No, I have never heard of them..."

Ignoring Caine's words, Cindy seemed to be stunned at this moment, looking at the other party, but her eyes were unfocused.

In a trance, she seemed to see her loved ones again, and the hand at her side also held the dagger at her waist. A murderous intent surged in her chest, as if she were about to gut this man in the next second.

Just as she was about to explode, a hand was placed on her shoulder, and a man's voice resonated in Cindy's ear.

"Cindy! You need to calm down. Don't worry about revenge. Don't disrupt the plan now."

A woman suddenly appeared, grabbed Cindy with some force, and quickly pulled her aside.

At that moment, the sound of a car engine could be heard, followed by a shout from the armored vehicle.

"They're here!"

Several people got out of the armored vehicle that was in front of the group.

"Airon, Rick!"

"Haha, Daryl, knew you'd be fine."

"Thanks, brother."

Just now, Michonne and Daryl explained why they came here, and he realized that these people were specifically brought here to save him. It would be a lie to say he wasn't moved, but he's not very expressive, so he could only say thank you quietly.

Airon patted him on the shoulder. Naturally, he was very happy to see him unharmed. After exchanging a few jokes, they all turned their attention to Caine.

"I think I remember you..."

Caine was a bit overwhelmed by this greeting. It seemed like everyone here knew him, but he had never seen them before. Could it be that he had really harmed these people but forgot?

Before he could dwell on it too much, he heard the long-haired man in front of him speak again: "Do you remember that RV in Washington?"

That sentence was like a sharp knife, piercing his guts. He remembered how he was in the group and how everyone was terrified on the ground from the sound of a sniper rifle.

"You... you're... the group of survivors who lured the walkers to attack us?"

The corners of Airon's mouth lifted, revealing a cold smile. "That's right, it seems that day really scared you..."

Except for Arturo, everyone in Caine's team had an extremely nervous expression on their faces. They had already realized that their next destination might not be very pleasant.
