It was supposed to be a good time, but it was completely ruined by the thing he brought. Although the thing was indeed quite nourishing, the thought of what it actually was made Barrett Walker find it hard to swallow. Looking at the elongated thing clamped by Greedy Wolf, Barrett Walker felt nauseous. Luckily, he had already consumed most of the pot and eaten a lot of meat and mushrooms in advance, otherwise, he would have lost his appetite watching him eat.
"Ah! Eating is so satisfying, you have no idea! It's the first time I've been lazy and overeaten so much, I feel all warm and tingly all over, like a fire burning inside!" Greedy Wolf burped, looking at how he ate so much and drank so much soup without any problem, Barrett Walker truly admired him. Where did he store all that food with such a thin figure?
"Do you feel your nose getting hot and itchy?" Barrett Walker stepped back, looking at Greedy Wolf seriously.
"Yes! How did you know?" Greedy Wolf looked at Barrett Walker strangely, reaching to touch his own nose, only to find it covered in blood. He exclaimed, "Damn it! I caught so many prey today, and it's just because I ate an extra tiger whip, is it really necessary to bleed like this?"
Barrett Walker looked at him in surprise and picked up the little cat licking the big bone soup in the stone bowl next to him, saying, "Should I find you some herbs to cool down and stop the bleeding?"
"No need, I have plenty of blood! I'm going back." After speaking, he jumped over the river, grabbing two prey with one hand and dragging them back to the border area, walking back and forth with difficulty.
Even though he had been in the border area for over a month, his contact with the border people had only been for a short time, but Barrett Walker felt incredibly shaken. Judging by Greedy Wolf's level, he might already be a general or even higher. This super genius, actually couldn't handle the nourishment of a tiger whip and ended up bleeding. Was it intentional or for some other reason, Barrett Walker couldn't tell.
"Ah! I'm not a Buddha, I can't cut meat to feed the eagles, so the best I can do for you is to take care of your health and catch more prey!" Barrett Walker looked at Greedy Wolf's departing figure, shaking his head slightly. It's hard to move someone in the apocalypse, but this time he was moved, although one emotion returned to reality, after all, he didn't grow up in the border area and had no sense of belonging here.
After waking up, Barrett Walker stayed in the border area for five days. During these five days, he went hunting in the wild every day, but strangely, the border people always encountered swarms of beasts, while the forest he entered was very quiet. He caught a lot of prey each time, but of course, he ate even more. His strength was gradually recovering, but his body was still weak. His schedule was almost the opposite of the two brothers, so there was no deep interaction, but he knew that the two brothers' temper was not bad.
Today is August 25th, and there are six days left until the university starts. Barrett Walker must go to the War God Academy to register, but today is also the day when the federation aids the border area. So Barrett Walker did not go out, not even the two brothers went to sleep, but stood on the street corner waiting for the relief vehicle to arrive.
"It's here, it's already past the street corner." The border area is not far from the imperial city, only a piece of wasteland away. However, it is this wasteland that blocks the border people from entering, and also prevents the imperial city from expanding outwards. But the border people all know that one day, the federation's patience with them will reach its limit, and then the army will enter the border area with tanks and powerful warriors to expel them further out, and high-rise buildings will be built here for the exploding population to live in.
Although they know, they are not worried. Every day they can live is good enough! Even the majority of young adults who are not seen during the day in the gangs have come this time. This relief distribution action is obviously different from before, and people are in a commotion, trying to find out what happened.

"Dead ducks, what's going on? Why are you here too?"
"I don't know! I heard that there was some news from above, so we came to see, afraid that something happened."
"Is it because the scholars' gang is not satisfied with losing their territory here, so their leader has joined forces with the government to seize the territory?"
"It's impossible. There was an agreement! Besides, the border area is not only the territory of the scholars' gang and the werewolf gang. If they really dare to do this, they will have no status in the border area."
"Stop all this nonsense, we'll know when they arrive." A leader-like figure said sternly, then licked his lips. It seemed like he was about to taste the blood of the nobles, and he really wanted to know if their blood was sweet.
The first to arrive was a Hummer military vehicle, with a machine gun mounted on it. There was a person sitting in the passenger seat, wearing oversized sunglasses, military boots propped up in front of the car, leaning back in the seat. The attitude made the crowd itch, wanting to pull him out of the car and beat him up. But at the thought of the food behind the military vehicle, they suppressed their anger. Perhaps this was the only chain that restrained this beast in the federation.
The car stopped in the center, and looking at the crowded scene, he stood up fearlessly, jumped onto the top of the truck carrying the food, and looked down at the crowd, saying, "I think you don't know me, do you? But you might have heard a name, Machine Gun! I am the head of that unit."
The crowd below immediately started discussing. Why was the one escorting the food this time one of the three major powerful warrior units, Machine Gun, and their leader was also here? Their agreement with the federation was that the federation would provide them with relief food, and they would not cause trouble. And they had never caused any trouble, so why was this person here? Was the federation trying to provoke a war?
"That's right! The federation is trying to start a war, but is this a war? No! This is not a war, this should be called a massacre, a blatant massacre!" He stood on the roof of the truck, looking down at the crowd below with pride. His voice overshadowed the chaotic crowd, then he looked at the clock on his hand and said very seriously, "Alright, the time has come, now listen to the federation's declaration."
The crowd quieted down and watched the projection on the truck, which showed a half-length portrait of Lait Smith. Although they rarely had contact with the news in the imperial city, they still had some common sense. This person was one of the nine executive directors!
"A traitor has appeared in the federation, a traitor who has stolen important information and leaked it to the alien creatures. The entire federation has been put on high alert to search for him, but he has not been found, so it is suspected that he has fled to your area. The reason the federation tolerates your existence is because you protect the imperial city and are loyal to the federation. Now we need you to hand him over, and the federation will allow you to continue to stay here. Otherwise, the army waiting outside will enter the border area in force, and we will personally search." Lait Smith shouted excitedly. The price of the hawkish faction's return to the parliament that day was indeed great!
On the day of the War God's 80th birthday, Monica Rothschild took advantage of the fact that these important figures were all on the mountain, and mobilized funds to cooperate with the military, sniping the entire stock market. Although she was not fully prepared and time was rushed, she still caught these people off guard, and the federation's financial and material resources were also mobilized to War God Mountain. This caused the stock market to be devastated, and countless people who were super rich before going up the mountain had become paupers after receiving a phone call when they came down.
What was even more insane was that Monica Rothschild assembled the military's funds and made a fortune in the stock market, but she did not take the opportunity to escape. Instead, she ventured to confront the entire federation, causing a dark and chaotic battle. Countless people couldn't bear the blow and jumped off buildings. Watching the lines on the screen constantly moving, the entire federation was alarmed. This indirectly shifted the federation's attention away from Barrett Walker, causing them to miss the best opportunity to search for him.
Seeing the stock price being saved by the federation, Monica not only lost the money she won, but even the funds she cooperated with the military would be trapped. If she lost this battle, the entire Rothschild family would be affected. But being affected is better than being engulfed, so despite the Rothschilds' wealth, she did not dare to confront the federation with madness and lose her reason.
How could she save herself and make this proud federation stumble!
