Doomsday Traveler

Chapter 328 The advantage is mine
Unexpectedly, Liu Hua's actions led Boss Liang to believe that he and Xuan Xiaocao had joined forces. Neither Lu Xi'an nor Yao Wei offered any explanation, continuing their pursuit with the swarms of flying ants.

Boss Liang shouted again, "Under the poplar tree, do you think these people from the north can be our enemies? Don't forget that Xuan Xiaocao and the others couldn't do anything to us back then! Apart from Xuan Xiaocao, they're all useless!"

"If you obediently listen to me and give them the power, I will never pursue these matters against you! I mean what I say!"

He seemed convinced that Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei were backed by Yang Shuxia, and that Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei were only able to unleash such power because of the amplification provided by Yang Shuxia's power.

As he spoke, he and Xu Ma retreated while looking around, trying to find the poplar tree in the surrounding environment.

It's very simple for them to find someone.

Chai Xin's current strength is incomparable to that of the past. Her camouflage is excellent, and she can achieve perfect concealment both visually and aurally.

The problem is that Boss Liang and Aunt Xu have eaten the fungus stones, and now everyone, including Chai Xin, has been marked and can be sensed by Boss Liang and Aunt Xu.

Liang quickly locked onto a direction, feeling displeased. He ignored even Lao Tang and Luo Ping, who were standing in the open, and broke off two branches from a tree by the river while running. He found an opening and threw them with a "whoosh".

He had to squeeze through the gaps between Lu Xi'an, Yao Wei, and the swarms of flying ants along the tree branch, heading in the direction he had locked onto.

Lu Xi'an tossed two pebbles with a "whoosh," which hit the two tree branches with a "thud," knocking them down. He laughed and said, "I was prepared for this move."

Boss Liang was even more displeased and said in a deep voice, "Did Yang Shuxia tell you that?"

He suspected that Yang Shuxia had told Lu Xi'an about his fighting style.

However, Lu Xi'an did not answer directly, but simply said, "Guess."

Helpless, Boss Liang and Aunt Xu could only shout angrily, "Then come and follow us if you dare! If you dare to follow us, you'll be sorry!"

Without looking back, he ran straight back the way he came.

This might sound like a provocation, but Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei had no choice but to pursue it.

If they catch up at such a fast pace, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei will inevitably lose contact with Liu Hua soon. In that case, they will lose the support of the Type C new humans and their strength will fall far behind.

Why did Liang Laoda's strength suddenly drop during the fight with Xu Ma?

That must be because Tang Er, Lao Yao, and Gouzi severed the connection between the Type C New Humans and Liang Laoda and Xu Ma, which are those insects.

There are too many Type C new humans among these enemies in Northern County. Once Boss Liang and Aunt Xu return to the range of those Type C new humans' abilities, Boss Liang and Aunt Xu will be enhanced again.

When the tide turns and the balance shifts, this battle will become much more difficult.

and……

Tang Er, the youngest brother, is still in the west with his dog and drone. If those two get back, Tang Er and his brother will be in danger.

Lu Xi'an gritted his teeth and pushed himself to his limits, quickening his pace to catch up. He desperately unleashed his full power, and with Liu Hua's ability boosting his speed, he shot out like a cannonball, throwing a punch at Boss Liang.

We must get these two people under control as soon as possible.

Lu Xian thought to himself.

As long as these two people are entangled and slowed down, Liu Hua's ants can catch up and overwhelm these two Type A new humans who have surpassed their limits by relying on fungal stones.

Seeing Lu Xi'an's actions, Yao Wei immediately understood his thoughts and quickly followed suit, unleashing her full power to strike at Xu Ma. Their movements were perfectly synchronized, one after the other.

However, they had a tacit understanding, as did Boss Liang and Aunt Xu.

The two were focused on escaping and paid no attention to Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei's attacks. When they were hit, they would just endure it, stumble forward, regain their balance, and continue running. Or, when they were knocked to the ground, they would roll forward, get up, and keep running.

Even when their bodies were dented, their heads were concussed, and blood was gushing out, they didn't care and just kept running away.

In the battle just now, they had been beaten up by Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei for half a day, which triggered the potential of the fungal stones in their bodies and greatly improved their strength. Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei chased after them and could only barely hit them, but could not stop them or slow them down.

Anyway, they had fungal stones in their bodies, so their recovery ability was amazing, and their strength was already at a certain level. Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei chased after them and attacked, but they didn't care and were determined to run away. Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei couldn't stop them at all.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei knew they couldn't continue like this; if they kept fighting, they feared that Boss Liang and Aunt Xu would only get stronger.

Such bluffing has only made us an asset to the enemy; what kind of logic is this?!

How could eating the fungal stones turn someone into such a monster?!

Seeing how Liang Laoda and Xu Ma are, I really want to eat the mushroom stone too!

The problem is that they already know that there are significant risks involved in ingesting fungal stones.

The Northern County used this method, and now only Xu Ma and Boss Liang have survived; the others have become food for others.

The flying ants had fallen behind, and seeing this, Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei both decided to stop.

Given the current situation, we cannot act rashly. If we aid the enemy and then suffer further losses to ourselves and Yao Wei, our two most important fighting forces, we will be completely finished.

The best course of action now is to lay out our forces and then engage in battle.

I just hope that the youngest brother and Tang Er on the west side are rational and cautious enough not to fully reveal themselves, and that they can quietly retreat when they see that things are not going well.

But just then, they saw a person running wildly towards them on the road at an extremely fast speed.

Judging from his appearance, he didn't have the support of a Type C New Human, and was definitely one of the Type A New Humans among the group from Northern County. As soon as he saw the four people chasing each other, he immediately showed a look of surprise, licked his lips with a cold expression, quickened his pace, and ran to meet them.

I never expected to catch up with Boss Liang and Aunt Xu here.

What was even more unexpected was that Boss Liang and Aunt Xu ended up at a disadvantage.

But it doesn't matter. Judging from the way Boss Liang and Aunt Xu are, they should only be a hair's breadth apart.

Now that I, the third strongest fighter in the northern county, have arrived, along with Boss Liang and Aunt Xu, it's three against two.

Three against two, the advantage is in my hands!

Thinking this, the man immediately pulled out two small knives and threw them at Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei with a "whoosh".

—His fighting style was the same as Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei's; he liked to start with hidden weapons.

However, just as he threw the knife, he saw Xu Ma glare at him with her teeth bared and shout, "Run!"

He was momentarily stunned, not understanding what was going on, when he saw Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei each extend a hand and catch his knife.

"boom!"

Two fists followed closely behind, landing on his face, one on the left and one on the right.

The man and woman who were just a little distance away from him suddenly appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye.

The punch was incredibly fast; he couldn't dodge it at all and was knocked backward, dizzy and disoriented.

"Choo choo choo!"

Before he could react, he was stabbed several times in the head and neck, leaving him a bloody mess, beyond recognition, and he was dead beyond any doubt.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei stood up and gently exhaled.

If I can't kill Boss Liang and Aunt Xu, I can at least kill you.
Next, we'll have to make a real battle of chariots and horses. Even if you lose one of your men, it'll be good.

Liang Laoda and Xu Ma had ferocious expressions, gritting their teeth even more, but they didn't dare to look back. Their expressions were hidden in front of them, leaving only the back of their heads for Lu Xi'an and Yao Weili to see.

The back of my head is getting further and further away.

Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei did not chase after them, but waited where they were.

The two waited for a while, then heard a noise behind them. Turning around, they saw two cars approaching, one from the 923 Institute base and the other from Lu Laoshu.

The car stopped next to Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei. Everyone got out of the car, and Luo Ping said, "Sorry, I didn't consider the possibility of mobile warfare, so I didn't arrange for a car to come over. I just went to get someone to drive."

Lu Xi'an said, "What's there to apologize for? This is the first time we've fought with so many people; none of us have experience. How are things going with Tang Er and the others?"

Luo Ping seemed to have already seen the resonance gene scanner and had a good idea of ​​what was going on. He immediately replied, "There's one person missing over there. It must be that Lao Yao and Tang Er succeeded."

"But they didn't completely succeed."

Lu Xi'an said, "I hope they're alright, and I hope they knocked out a Type A or Type C new human."

These two types are the most effective in combat.

"Yes."

Luo Ping nodded and said, "Hopefully they'll realize something's wrong and sneak back..."

He had someone move the resonance gene scanner, which was connected to a power bank, out of the car and place it on the front hood. When everyone looked again, they saw that the red dots representing Northern County had changed. There were nine dots instead of the original eleven.

The red dots all stopped on the highway, neither advancing nor retreating, as if they were making a decision.

"Do you think they will retreat or come back to attack?"

Lu Xi'an looked at the map on the resonance gene scanner and asked a question.

Luo Ping shook his head and said, "I don't know. I hope they can back down. It would be best if they could."

"But we have marks on us, and we can never get rid of them."

Lu Laoshu said in a deep voice, "I can sense their location even without looking at this map. This kind of location is too accurate. If we get separated in the future, they will find us immediately..."

Everyone understood what he meant, and their hearts sank slightly.

"Mr. Luo, Mr. Lu, Mr. Yao."

Tang Er's voice suddenly rang out.

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a car suddenly appear out of thin air in the wilderness to the north, with Tang Er standing on the roof.

A drone flew out of the car, the car door opened, and there was a dog.
