Chapter 268: Wildfire
A gust of wind blew.
The snow on the branches of the pine tree was shaken off by the wind and fell on Luo Songxi, who was sleeping on his side under the tree.
Luo Songxi jumped up from the ground like a spring and looked around blankly.
It's just that the snow is falling on me.
Toramis reclined on the fence of the roll cage, covered with a thick marching blanket. His vitality had become weaker and weaker, but he still showed a smile towards Luo Songxi.
"You've only slept for forty-eight minutes, and there's still twelve minutes left, so time is precious, so hurry up and get some rest. ”
Luo Songxi shook his head, picked up a handful of snow from the ground, rubbed it on his face, and then began to patrol in circles at their temporary rest spot.
Although Ameyas had not yet caught up with them after letting them flee into the forest, they had been running wild in this vast forest for a day and a night.
Although Amyes let them go for the time being, his extremely powerful airship has the means to monitor the direction of Luo Songxi, and the spirit body can expand his line of sight to an area of several square kilometers.
In order to escape from the airship with his team, Luo Songxi must pass through this vast dense forest, re-plunge into the lofty mountains, and find those natural caves that can cross the mountain's belly. In this way, the disadvantage in mobility can be offset.
They had to go fast to make sure they didn't go into the search range of the spirit body of Amyes. That wouldn't allow Amyers to lock down their exact position, and it would also allow 77 to play their part.
They can't walk in a straight line across the forest, they have to change direction constantly.
The rapid march for a day and night had already caused the death of two wounded due to the deterioration of their injuries. When even Luo Songxi couldn't hold it anymore, 77 finally announced that after her careful calculations and deductions, they could get an hour's rest.
In Luo Songxi's life of less than twenty years old, running away is not new. Just after the outbreak of the war, he also took Zhou Zhuo with his big tooth and they went through several escapes.
But this time, it was undoubtedly the most panicked escape he had, without any chance or room for counterattack.
He circled around the makeshift rest point, checked the injuries of several seriously wounded again, and checked the preparations before resuming on the road.
"You don't have to be so nervous. 77 said to him.
"I can't be a good commander. "Luo Songxi Road.
"Your power of punishment hasn't increased even a bit since you broke through. You take your responsibilities too seriously, and you are tied too tightly, which is completely contrary to your own path of freedom. ”
"But isn't that wrong?"
"Why don't you part ways with them, maybe Amyas will let them go and chase you?"
"You know it's too low. How could Amyas ignore such a force that was close to him?and it was only if we planned the route that there was a slight chance of leading them into some intricate cavern and continuing to deal with Ameyes. ”
"But for you, they are not a strength, but a burden. ”
"Don't say it, it's time, we're on our way. ”
77 Yiyan no longer spoke, but began to carefully experience Luo Songxi's emotional changes at the moment.
It may be that she will continue to grow on the path of life, not relying on her already incomparably powerful calculation and reasoning abilities, but on these perceptual worlds that seem incomprehensible on a rational level.
Doon quickly helped Toramis onto the cage, grabbed the handle, and pushed forward with all his might.
Perhaps the only thing that pleased Luo Songxi was that this real prince of the empire had become extremely tame. Moreover, he has the foundation of a gold-level martial artist, and his physical fitness is better than most people in the team.
Regardless of whether the tamed Doao will one day be able to sit on the throne of the emperor of the empire, at least for now, they will not have the burden of escorting prisoners of war.
Another prisoner of war, Brigadier General Darsk of the Sanctuary Rank, thought he was about to be rescued by his commander when he saw Ameyes' airship. But he felt that he had been insulted too much, and he was ashamed to see his respected superior, so he committed suicide.
Since the situation was critical, no one had time to sigh for Dusk Qingqi's brain circuit. Anyway, after Dusk's suicide, Doon performed better.
......
......
In the dense coniferous forest, the scenery is the same everywhere. The massive canopy of trees obscures most of the sky, making it difficult to feel the passage of time.
Traveling in such a dense forest for a day and a night can even give the illusion that time and space have been closed.
Joyce, who was carrying calf cramps with big teeth, turned around, gasped, and shouted to Luo Songxi, "Let's not run away, okay? Go back and fight with them." Even if you can't fight it, you can spell out one return to the original and fight two net earnings. ”
"Not good. Luo Songxi flatly refused, "Give me all the life, this is an order." ”
Joyce, who was on Big Tooth's shoulder, suddenly said, "What sound did I hear?
Luo Songxi did not have the keen sense of animals like Joyce, but after a while, he saw a large flock of birds, from their left, at great speed, passing over their heads.
In the winter in the mountainous woodlands, the density of wild animals is not high, and most of the animals have moved to warmer and more well-fed places. So they marched through the forest for a day and a night, and did not meet a large herd.
77 realized something, and the little girl frowned and quickly rose into the air.
"Smoke, smoke, to our left, billowing smoke. Amyas is setting fire to the forest!"
"Turn, the whole team turn," Luo Songxi ordered, "change to the right front forty-five degrees." ”
However, no sooner had the steering been completed than the 77 sent another message:
"There is smoke on the right, and Amyas has divided his troops, at least two teams of magicians will be divided, and they will set fire to them from both directions at the same time......"
"Not only that, but in three directions, behind us, there was also a fire. ”
It is clear that Amyes has been chasing for a day, not catching up with the rebels, and has lost patience to pursue. He was able to frame the general area where the Resistance was located, and set fire to it from three directions, leaving the Resistance with no way to escape.
With the presence of a great magician of the Sanctuary level, setting fire to the mountains and forests could not be simpler. The great magicians have fire magic in one hand and wind magic in the other, and the fire spreads extremely quickly by borrowing the wind.
Soon, they saw growing smoke through the foliage overhead.
Even to their left, the light of the fire could already be faintly seen.
The more areas that are on fire, the smaller the area they can move around until they have to emerge in the flames.
"We are close to the line of fire on the left, is it possible to cross the line of fire?" asked Luo Songxi77.
"If you rush out against the fire...... At most, half of us here will survive. ”
"And it's impossible to extinguish a fire, whether it's to extinguish a fire with water magic or to set up a barrier, it's too slow, and our position will be exposed immediately. "77 tracts.
Now the only way to survive is to move forward, before the mountain fire forms a circle, out of this dense forest.
The team moved forward in silence at top speed for about half an hour.
"77, how long will it take to get out of ......"
However, before Luo Songxi could finish asking, he heard 77 snort as if he was enduring pain, and then plunged headlong into the fragments of the Mirror of Viewing the World.
"It's too late," 77's voice came from now, "their spirit bodies have already discovered us. ”
Huge airships, flying in from the road ahead of them. Surrounded by three missing one, how could Amyers give them a way out?
