Chapter 828: Escape, Primitive War!
The external situation suddenly changed, wars broke out everywhere, and killings were rampant.
Su Mo and his party fled quickly, taking detours from time to time to avoid all the territories that were in war.
Of course, occasionally when he really couldn't avoid it, he would choose to take action and force a way to the Tianyuan territory.
But unfortunately, there are now more than tens of thousands of evolvers infected with the genes of the five royal families.
When fighting with these people under the divine power barrier, if you are not careful, you may be surrounded and killed and exhausted.
At the beginning, everyone could fight and retreat, but in the end, they could only flee in panic.
This is how five days passed.
It was getting dark.
At a stream path near the forest, after being forced by the evolvers for a whole day, the group finally got a chance to breathe again.
Set up camp, collect water sources, and cook.
As a bonfire rose, everyone gathered around and sat beside it, with endless sighs on their faces.
"Captain, the strength of these evolvers is getting more and more terrifying, especially in places covered by divine power barriers, they are simply too numerous to kill," one person in the team couldn't help but speak out.
"These people are fearless and are completely exchanging their lives for lives in hand-to-hand combat. We have many concerns when we fight, so we are naturally no match."
Bao Lei spoke slowly while treating the wound on his arm that was left during the day.
After speaking, he looked at Su Mo, who was sitting in the center:
"Sir, we have missed the time to reunite with the ship. Now they are surrounded by evolvers. Do we still want to try?"
"The risk is too high. Let's continue to break through the evolutionary encirclement like this, otherwise we may be surrounded by them on the ship."
Su Mo said calmly while flipping the skewers on the campfire.
Plans can never keep up with changes.
He didn't expect the offensive of these evolvers to erupt so fiercely. The situation changed drastically almost overnight.
First, the Northland and the Golden Eagle in the three major territory alliances fell into civil strife and turned into a drug den, completely losing order and control.
Then, normal people in countless large, medium and small territories suddenly mutated, began to attack the humans around them crazily, and spread the evolution virus wantonly.
Because the alliance was busy with its own affairs, the fireworks that were seen every day in the past have not been seen for a long time, causing the offensive of the Divine Court to become more and more fierce.
Especially now, as a large number of evolvers are moving towards the Tianyuan territory with a purpose.
There is no doubt that as an upcoming world-destroying disaster, the corpse tide has begun to show enough power.
Tens of millions of evolvers, and the five royal ancestors who may come at any time.
Even if everyone is optimistic, they can't help but have a strong worry about the future.
It can be said that only by resisting the tide-like attacks of these evolvers first, there will be a subsequent turnaround.
If it can't resist, the Tianyuan territory will fall and collapse instantly like the Northland and the Golden Eagle.
"There are still more than 2,000 kilometers to go. If we walk faster, we may be able to get back to the territory within half a month."
"Besides, aren't there a lot of survivors who are seeking refuge in Tianyuan Territory along the way? When we pass the area controlled by the Divine Court, it will be much safer than it is now. Su Mo took out the skewers and distributed them to more than ten people sitting by the campfire, and then spoke softly.
However, the fragrant skewers could not drive away the worries and fears in my heart.
Especially the thick fog and mountain wind in the surrounding dense forests sounded like ghosts crying, making everyone's backs cold.
But with this little comfort, after a hurried dinner time, everyone tiredly returned to the tent to rest.
No words were spoken all night.
As the sky turned pale, after identifying the direction, the team set off again along the previously planned route.
When we passed through the dense forest at noon, it was finally time to finish the area controlled by the Divine Court.
And not far away, many human teams heading to Tianyuan Territory finally began to appear!
"Hurry, hurry, hurry! ! "
"Speed up the pace and quickly pass through the area where the Divine Court may attack. Once you get to the back of the mountain, you can rest today!"
The sun is overhead and the heat is coming down.
On the plain behind the dense forest, a team of thousands of people and horses are moving quickly with their heads down and their bags on their backs.
On both sides of the team, humans riding mutant lizards occasionally bypass them, maintaining order and urging them loudly.
Compared with ordinary fleeing teams, this team is obviously much more disciplined.
As soon as the people in the front row slowed down their pace, the people in the back row could react immediately and slowed down synchronously to maintain the integrity of the formation.
And those who surrounded this team, wearing rattan armor and holding wooden spears, were also extraordinary.
Although there were only a hundred of these people, their aura was the same as that of ordinary people. There is a world of difference.
If Su Mo could be here, he would definitely find that these people's lower bodies are all very solid, and their close combat strength is not inferior to the elite soldiers in the large territory.
At the front of the team, there are seven large carts pulled by mutant lizards.
From time to time, the canopy in front of the car was blown up by the wind, and you can see that the people lying inside are all seriously injured, with bandages all over their bodies.
Suddenly, several people came up from the back of the team and went straight to the middle-aged man with a long bow on his back.
"Master, the evolutionary team chasing behind has increased its speed again. We must go faster, otherwise they may find the camp where we are stationed tonight!"
The remaining sanity of the evolvers who have fallen into a manic state varies according to individual circumstances.
But according to the experience gained during the days of escape, as long as the distance between them and these evolvers is more than five kilometers, they will basically not be discovered.
If the distance is less than this, they will attack like sharks smelling blood.
No matter day or night.
"It has to be faster?" The man called the master turned his head and looked, then shook his head solemnly: "This is already the fastest speed, otherwise someone will fall behind, and it will be even more dangerous if they are chased."
"Well, I will go and talk to Elder Liu, and you continue to investigate behind.
"Yes, master! "After receiving the order, several people quickly returned along the way they came.
The sect leader stared at his feet with some worry, calling the lizard to move to the side.
They were originally a secluded village on Feifeng Mountain in a remote area in the area controlled by the Golden Giant Eagle.
Because most of the people who joined here have a martial arts dream in their hearts and like to practice martial arts, the village is also named Nirvana Sect.
As the leader of Nirvana Sect, Yan Xiangfei did not intend to take people all the way to Tianyuan Territory.
But the rapid collapse of the Golden Giant Eagle forced him to choose to embark on this road.
At the beginning, Nirvana Sect had only more than 300 people, and basically all of them had kung fu skills, so the journey was relatively smooth.
But as more and more people joined the team these days, the courage on his shoulders naturally became heavier.
Riding to the right wing of the team, Yan Xiangfei slowed down and rode side by side with a bearded strong man.
"Elder Liu Xian, the evolvers behind are catching up again!"
"No, I won't go no matter what. "When he heard the word evolver, the bold-looking Elder Liu shook his head repeatedly.
"In order to protect them these days, almost everyone in our Liu family was injured. Now we have finally passed the area controlled by the Divine Court. I think it's time to disband and go our separate ways!"
"Without our protection, these ordinary people can only survive for a few days, but they can only wait to die when they encounter evolvers." Yan Xiangfei also seemed a little helpless: "Besides, if we take these people to the Tianyuan territory, we have more people and will surely get better treatment."
"Master, this is the truth, but it's not that I don't want to go, it's just that the brothers below are tired." Liu Xian sighed and felt a little helpless: "Everyone understands these truths, but every time you meet outsiders who want to join, you don't make any demands. Let's not talk about collecting protection fees or something. It's not a problem to ask them to supply some food, right?"
"Okay. I will follow your wishes for the people who join the team next, but this time the evolvers behind still have to..."
"I understand! "
Hearing that Yan Xiangfei was finally willing to let go, Liu Xian breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly slowed down.
As more than 20 members of the Liu family were inspired by him, everyone immediately turned around and approached the direction of the evolutionists' pursuit.
These days, they have fought with these lunatics at least hundreds of times.
From the initial fear and fear to the current habit and even some excitement.
The group galloped on horseback and soon separated from the team, pulling away a considerable distance.
But this time, the situation was obviously different.
Before they could see where the evolutionists who were chasing them were, a blue barrier suddenly rose from the end of the earth.
About three seconds later, it was steadily upside down on everyone's heads.
"Is this a level three divine power barrier! ! ? "
After checking the coverage area, a man in the team couldn't help but speak out.
"Level 3 covers 200 kilometers, and the material strength of all firepower weapons will drop to the point where they are completely unusable. Only wooden weapons can be used." Liu Xian strangled the lizard with an ugly face.
The divine power barrier has appeared for more than a month. Under the unreserved publicity of the Divine Court, it is no longer a secret.
From level one to level five.
The higher the level, the larger the coverage of the divine power barrier, and the more intuitive the effect of the change.
For example, at level one, the steel strength of ordinary guns can barely shoot a few times, and alloys can maintain their original strength.
At level two, steel will be completely eliminated, most alloys will be restricted, and a small part will still maintain its power.
Only at level three will there be a qualitative change, whether it is steel, iron, or common alloys will be completely restricted.
As for the higher levels four and five, there is no specific information at present, and no one knows what the effect will be.
"Don't panic, our goal is not to wipe out these pursuers, as long as we can attract their attention and take these crazy guys for a few laps! "Liu Xian took a deep breath and took the wooden bow behind him.
Others followed suit, took off the wooden weapons hanging on their backs, and moved forward cautiously.
The hot breeze blew, and the meaningless hissing of the evolvers could be heard faintly from the back of the hill in the distance.
"If there are few people later, we will gather to the right and take them around the edge of the dense forest."
"If there are many people, we will split into two teams, walk left and right, and gather at the resting place at night."
"Yes!" More than 20 people responded in unison, and they couldn't help but tighten their weapons.
However, just when their nerves were completely tense, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared on the hillside.
These people were strong, carrying weapons, and their temperaments were solemn, full of murderous intent.
Especially the two people walking in front, they walked like dragons and tigers, with extraordinary momentum.
From a distance, I saw that everyone here stopped and the team slowed down. One of the two leaders walked out and bowed slightly:
"Friends, there is a large group of evolutionists chasing us from behind. Can you give us a ride? We are willing to pay a satisfactory reward."
While speaking, the figure flipped his hand slightly and took out three thick coarse flour cakes from the bag behind him, and took out a can of potato chips with colorful packaging.
When Liu Xian heard the familiar request, he didn't care, but when he saw these things, he was immediately stunned and looked happy.
The Nirvana Sect didn't store much food. After these days of rushing on the road, although it was not exhausted, it still had to plan the distribution of food.
Especially recently, with more people, the less food they can get, and they can only eat about half full at each meal.
Therefore, he just made such a request to Yan Xiangfei.
But he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he would meet a group of sensible refugees here.
"Okay, okay, are you guys also fleeing to Tianyuan Territory?" Liu Xian got off his horse, gave a look to the person next to him, and then took the initiative to bow and step forward.
"That's right, we came from the Nakohuai Territory in the north and went to Tianyuan Territory for refuge!" The figure replied after a slight pause.
"Nakohuai? What a coincidence, there are many people in our team who escaped from your territory." Liu Xian smiled: "You can walk so far in this chaotic situation, you must be strong, why don't you join our team and go to Tianyuan Territory together?"
"You guys?"
"No, no, no, we are responsible for distracting the attention of the evolvers in the back, the big team is in front, there are more than two thousand and almost three thousand people!" Liu Xian saw that the other party was confused, and hurriedly explained.
On the way, he reached out again without leaving a trace, took all the pancakes and potato chips, and put them into the bag beside the lizard.
"So many people?" The figure was slightly surprised, and then he was delighted: "Then I'd rather obey than be respectful. What's your name, friend?"
"Nirvana Sect, Liu Xian. These are all my clansmen. May I know your surname, brother?"
"No need to be surnamed Su, Su Lei." The figure bowed again, raised his head and revealed an ordinary but memorable face.
This person was Su Mo who had just walked out of the dense forest.
After a night of delay, the evolutionary brigade that had been heading to Tianyuan Territory finally caught up again.
Because few people had seen Su Youzong's face, he was not afraid that his identity would be exposed.
"This is our first meeting. Please take care of me, brothers of the Liu family."
Su Mo took out three more cakes from his backpack and handed them over.
Liu Xian's face smiled even more, and he even started to call him brother in his words.
"Brother Su is so polite. So, all of you can sit up." He waved his hand, and more than a dozen Liu clansmen immediately ordered the lizard to lower his body.
Su Mo casually sat on one of the lizards, and the tension in his body instantly relaxed.
"You must be tired from walking these days. Don't worry, as long as Brother Su can afford the price, you can take a car every day for the rest of the journey!" Liu Xian chuckled and shouted strangely: "Brothers, let's go!"
Swish.
The reins on the lizard's neck were pulled, and it began to run forward.
Seeing these people still running towards the direction of the Evolvers, Bao Lei felt a little uneasy, but after finding that Su Mo was still calm, he still resisted the urge to speak.
And then, this group of people also used their strength to refresh everyone's understanding of the adaptability of wasteland humans.
The Evolver Brigade of nearly a thousand people was stuck at a distance of 100 meters by these people because of the lack of long-range attacks. They flew kites back and forth to attack.
Sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right.
With the advantage of moving speed, the Evolver Brigade, which only knew that it took half an hour to advance less than 400 meters.
There was even chaos in the team, and many people fell together, causing the subsequent evolvers to stop.
"Don't worry, Brother Su, these people are just like zombies, they have no brains, but we only use wooden bows, and we can't kill them all."
"Delay for a while, and wait until our team leaves, they won't be able to catch up~"
Riding a lizard in front of countless evolvers, Liu Xian seemed to enjoy the feeling of being "the center of attention".
He shouted with a red face, and after shooting down several people with a bow, he blew the whistle.
"Brothers, retreat!"
After delaying for more than an hour, according to the team's footwork, they can at least walk three kilometers away.
And when it gets dark, the speed of these evolvers will slow down significantly.
As long as there is no sudden accident, the distance pulled out is enough for everyone to spend another peaceful night.
