Mobile City Travel Guide
Chapter 15 Rapid Pursuit
More than an hour later, the Xinghuo stopped in front of a grove of trees by the roadside.
The reason we stopped here was because the trees were laden with wild fruit, each one the size of a watermelon, and very heavy.
The fruit was ripe, emitting a sweet, cloying aroma, and many had already fallen to the ground.
So everyone excitedly started picking wild fruits. To increase efficiency, they didn't pick up the fallen fruits one by one, but instead used the engineering equipment on the deck to pick the bunches of fruits from the trees.
As Li Xin looked around, his brows relaxed. Although this world of giants was dangerous, supplies were easy to find; a handful would be enough for a while, and he should be able to gather the supplies he expected.
But to his surprise, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred a few minutes later.
A car sped towards them amidst a roar that grew louder as it approached.
It resembled a small pickup truck for cargo, with a giant leaning forward in the driver's seat, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. He had a freshly lit cigarette dangling from his mouth, his eyes narrowed and his brow furrowed, as if he were urgently searching for something.
There were four or five giants sitting in the back of the car. Some of them were holding nets, some were carrying shotguns, some were holding sticks, and some were holding a piece of paper in their hands, scratching their heads impatiently as they looked at it.
Upon seeing the Starfire not far ahead, the giant driving the vehicle suddenly widened his eyes, and the cigarette in his mouth fell to the ground with a thud.
He didn't even bother to pick it up; he immediately banged the horn to warn his companions and pulled out his walkie-talkie to shout a few urgent words into it. His companions, regaining their senses, looked at the Starfire and the people on deck, their faces beaming with ecstatic joy.
Li Xin immediately waved his hand sharply.
"Walk!"
Due to the urgency of the situation, the helmsman had no time to turn around and had to slam on the accelerator to make the Starfire reverse at full speed so that he could turn around and escape after creating some distance.
On the deck, everyone ran as fast as they could toward the nearby firearms.
The pickup truck had already arrived, and the giant driving it slammed on the brakes, bringing it to a sudden stop nearby. The other giants grabbed their weapons, jumped out of the truck, and charged over excitedly, roaring.
As the Starfire gradually accelerated to create distance, the giant running at the front made a decisive move, throwing away his club and rushing forward to grab the stern with both hands!
The entire mobile city suddenly shuddered, its tires spinning violently in place, instantly coming to a standstill.
Caught off guard, the people on the deck were thrown about by the immense inertia.
When they instinctively looked up, they were face to face with the giant.
His face, full of flesh and deep wrinkles, with a stubble-covered chin and wide, glaring eyes, was clearly visible.
His face lit up with ecstatic joy, and he turned and shouted urgently a few times towards the back.
The other giants followed suit, throwing off their weapons and beaming with joy. They held onto the Starfire with one hand and tried to grab people and things on the deck with the other.
At the critical moment, a burst of gunfire suddenly rang out.
A barrage of crimson bullets swept across the first giant's hand, instantly shattering several of his fingers. The giant snapped back to reality and let out a heart-wrenching scream.
It was Li Xin. At this moment, he had already rushed to the Flesh Butcher machine gun and was maneuvering it to aim and fire.
As he turned his gun, blood blossomed from several places on the other giants. The sudden, excruciating pain forced them to loosen their grip, and they even instinctively took a few steps back in fear.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the Starfire, having broken free of its entanglement, quickly increased its distance.
Seeing that the cooked duck was about to fly away, the giant driving the car clenched his fist, stomped his foot, and shouted angrily at his companions.
As the giants, enduring the pain of their wounds, grabbed their weapons and prepared to give chase, they were met with a cannonball from the Tiger Crouching Cannon.
A huge, violent shockwave swept out instantly, blasting them backward and sending them tumbling and rolling on the ground.
"We're saved!"
"That was a close call!"
Everyone said with lingering fear.
However, before they could even catch their breath, a new situation arose.
With a series of roaring sounds, dozens of vehicles suddenly appeared on the road in front and behind.
Motorcycles, cars, pickup trucks, vans... all kinds of vehicles, packed with giants.
With the screeching of tires against the ground, the vehicles screeched to a halt one after another nearby, and the giants opened their doors and surged in from all directions.
This sudden sight stunned everyone.
A gentle breeze swept by, carrying the piece of paper left on the back of the pickup truck.
It was a notice with images of a moving city and little people, along with a long, eye-catching bounty.
Li Xin made a decisive shout.
"Run straight into the woods!"
At this moment, his heart was pounding with tension. Countless giants were closing in from all directions, and he could even see their gleeful, almost ferocious smiles.
After an extremely excited cheer, a giant in the foreground took a few steps, leaped up, and pounced. Its massive body was like a mountain pressing down.
He was met with the fierce firepower of the Xinghuo satellite.
The heavy machine guns, well-equipped with ammunition, and the cannons, armed with solid shot, instantly blasted open many parts of his flesh.
A wave of unrest, a wave of up again.
The dozen or so giants at the forefront charged forward with all their might, closing in from several directions. The scene suddenly became extremely dangerous, with a dozen giant hands reaching out from all directions, trying to grab the people and things on the deck.
The crowd fired furiously, venting their fear with roars.
The Spark desperately maneuvered, dodging and turning to evade the giants' pursuit.
Li Xin piloted the Flesh Butcher machine gun, firing relentlessly at the nearby giants. His tension was at its peak.
You never know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. I was only stopping on the side of the road for a few minutes and I was prepared for an accident, but I still didn't expect this to happen.
His only thought at that moment was to prevent any giant from touching the Starfire.
With the strength of a giant, it can hold it firmly once it touches it, and then the other giants will swarm in and it will all be over.
As the giants were about to surround the Starfire, he didn't have time to think and immediately ordered the Tiger Crouching Cannons, which had been re-prepared, to fire at close range.
The powerful shockwave instantly blasted the giants away, and at the same time it caused the Starfire to tremble violently. The mobile city tilted halfway at a dangerous angle, with only one tire barely supporting it.
Inside the cockpit, the helmsman gritted his teeth and, in the instant the city tilted, swerved the steering wheel sharply and floored the accelerator!
The tires on the side of the Starfire that were still spinning suddenly gripped the ground firmly, and the entire mobile city sprang back like a fully drawn and then released bow, grazing past several nearby giants as it broke through the encirclement!
On the deck, Li Xin and his companions struggled to hold onto the railing, their bodies vibrating and buzzing, feeling dizzy and disoriented.
He had just breathed a sigh of relief at breaking through the encirclement, but was stunned when he saw the scene before him.
"Damn it, how did it end up on the highway?"
