Chapter 294: Dilemma

The stone projectiles thrown by the cyclops were fast and accurate. The first one had already shot at the position of Shen Hao's vest, but the next four or five fell in front of him, completely blocking his way, if he continued to charge forward like this, even if the stone bullet behind him could not kill him, then the next few would fall on him one after another.

Shen Hao gritted his teeth, his forward legs suddenly stopped, his body fell forward, and a stone bullet flew past his upper body, and then he supported the ground with one hand as the axis, and his body folded in another direction under inertia. Before the second stone bullet flew again, he kicked hard with both feet at the same time, and his body flew forward about ten meters away against the ground.

The cyclops were still smashing the stones hard, but because Shen Hao temporarily changed the direction of his progress, most of the previous stone bullets were smashed into the air, making it rare for him to win a gap for himself to escape. By this time, he had already deviated from the direction of rushing back to the Stronghold of Harryon, but he did not dare to stop.

The ground behind him began to shake again, and it was the heavy rhinoceros cavalry who began to pursue, and only the eye could see it, a squad of wolf cavalry outflanked him, and in a short time completely cut off his way back to the city. Shen Hao secretly smiled bitterly, these Crulord fools actually dispatched almost all the troops for him alone, should he feel honored or consider himself unlucky.

In this direction is a wasteland of a flat river, and it is at least twenty kilometers away from the nearest mountain forest. On such terrain it is simply the world of cavalry. Not to mention the wolf cavalry, which is known for its speed, even those bulky woolly rhinoceros can run an average speed of forty yards on such terrain.

But Shen Hao must not give up, if he is caught up by the group of crazy beasts behind, even if he steps on it, he can be trampled into pulp. He exhaled, and the muscles in his body suddenly swelled, and he actually forced the already tattered iron armor on his body to pieces, and the full-covered helmet was also thrown to the side of the road by him. At this time, he only had a pair of boxer briefs left in his body, and the only thing left in his hand was the ruddy Shizhong sword.

Throwing away the extra weight, he was a few percent faster. In fact, in terms of the weight on the body, the sword in the stone also accounts for a large proportion, but in such a chaotic world, a competent weapon is more important than anything else. He even abandoned the scabbard, leaving only a chain to tie the blade to his bare back.

The wolf cavalry let out a long howl in unison, and slowly chased after the rhinoceros cavalry. The few wolf cavalrymen who were chasing closer touched the animal skin pouch on the wolf's back, and then pulled out a pair of pitch-black nets. Throwing nets is one of the housekeeping skills of orc wolves, their nets are made of a special plant, not only flexible, but also have countless tiny stingers inside, once hooked into the body of the prey, it can produce a certain paralyzing effect, even if the bipedal wyvern flying in the air is covered by such a net, it will fall from the air uncontrollably.

A whistle sounded, and the three net pockets came towards Shen Hao's head in a zigzag shape. Of course, Shen Hao could dodge, but once he slowed down, then more wolf riders would catch up, and more nets would make him tired. So there was only one choice left, Shen Hao took a deep breath, and the green tendons on the surface of his legs bulged like a dragon, making him actually accelerate again under the gallop. Three nets grazed his back and fell into the dust, and the wolf cavalry in hot pursuit lost the last chance to intercept him.

The howl of the wolf faded away, and the thunderous footsteps of the rhinoceros cavalry faded away. Shen Hao accelerated twice, and actually ran out of a high speed of hundreds of yards, and the rhinoceros cavalry couldn't even see his back after a wild run, and the wolf cavalry with a long speed still insisted on pursuing for half an hour, and could only give up unwillingly, after all, the wolf's endurance was limited, and such a long-distance run made many wolves lie on the ground weakly, mouthing out their tongues, and they were no longer able to chase down.

Grad angrily slashed at a rock on the side of the road, and the rock shattered, and the purple lightning attached to the axe blade even blasted a shallow circular crater in the ground. He stared at the direction where Shen Hao had gone, his eyes were as red as fire, he really couldn't imagine that there were humans in the world who could run faster than the most elite wolf cavalry under his command, if such a thing was told to him the day before, he would only take it as a joke, but now the cruel reality has torn his remaining dignity to pieces.

With an army of tens of thousands, one of the three strongest legions of Crulod, he actually let an unknown human slash the general's mount in front of the battle, and also caused heavy losses to the ogre legion, and finally managed to retreat under the pursuit of their entire army. Grad could already foresee how his competitors would make fun of him when he returned to the Empire. At this point, the joy of ambushing and annihilating the 20,000 human army had vanished.

......

After completely shaking off the Krulord cavalry, Shen Hao changed direction and ran towards the depths of the Esquil Mountains. He didn't want to return to the Erathia Empire for the time being, after all, he was a soldier at the moment, and he would definitely be incorporated into the army when he returned home. And he also felt that in this world, the power of one person is really limited on the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, and his mission in this world is not to win those damn wars.

This kind of war between races has no distinction between good and evil, and it is only for nothing to be killed if they are caught in it. He needed a chance to move freely, he had to find his lost companions this morning, find a way to help them regain their memories, and then he had a chance to find the Nightmare Lords behind the scenes, kill them, open the gap to the plane's passage, and then put an end to it......

Maintaining such a high-speed run for a long time was unbearable even for Shen Hao, and after entering a dense grove, he stopped. Leaning against a tree trunk, he gasped for breath, as if he had been fished out of water, leaving a large puddle of sweat even where he stepped on it with his bare feet.

The marching bag was also discarded, there were no water bladders, no dry food, and although the sun in the forest was not too violent, the after-effects of excessive exercise were still beginning to emerge. He was very thirsty and hungry, after a big battle, his body was hit by purple thunder and lightning and he was injured five times, and then he continued to run at a high speed of more than 100 yards for more than two hours, after all, he was still a human, not a machine, even if it was a machine, there was a time when he ran out of fuel.

However, it was not safe, and although the mountainous area had deviated from the territory of Korulod, it had not yet reached the realm of true peace of mind. You have to go further and cross the top of the bombbla in front of you to enter the strategic buffer zone of Korulod, Erathia and Tataria, which is, in fact, a three-way zone. It's only when you get there that you can really catch your breath.

Shen Hao folded a sturdy and straight tree trunk as a mountaineering stick, and peeled off some soft bark to make himself the most primitive armor. Walking through the mountains and forests, there are many poisonous mosquitoes and flying insects, as well as those thorny plants will bother passers-by, and the coat made of tree bark has a certain protective color effect.

Dragging his tired body up the steep mountain rocks, Shen Hao hadn't felt such a hunger for a long time, this mountain forest hadn't encountered a single living thing, and he didn't have that kind of idle effort to hunt. If it is really chased by Crurod's troops to this vicinity, it will be difficult to get out, although the orcs of Crulod are not as good as the elves of Avli, but they are also a race that is very good at fighting in the mountains and forests, and the most worrying thing for Shen Hao is that Crulod also has a powerful flying class that is comparable to the cyclops - Lei Peng.

This kind of giant bird, like the legendary golden-winged roc, is not only fierce and abnormal, but also has the ability to summon thunder by nature, if he encounters such a thing on such a cliff, Shen Hao is a little skeptical that he can survive five minutes.

Fortunately, Lady Luck still favored him, and it seemed that only the Beast Legion was the only force that raided the Fortress of Hairian this time, and the Beamon Legion equipped with Lei Peng did not participate in the battle, so the escape along the way was quite dangerous.

Half of the cliff had already been climbed, and Shen Hao's left hand that leaned out suddenly hit a recess, and when he climbed up, it was actually a half-human-sized cave. The cave is very deep, there is a small platform in front of the cave, Shen Hao sat on the platform with his body over, and took a breath, this is not far from the top of the mountain, and if he climbs over this mountain, he will find a way to hunt some animals to replenish his energy. Not to mention the hunger burning in his abdomen, his lips were dry and cracked to the point of blood after not drinking water for a long time, and his throat was even more smoky and uncomfortable.

Just as Shen Hao was about to leave again, a soft whistle came from the cave behind him, accompanied by an unpleasant fishy stench, and a black shadow rolled towards Shen Hao like a long whip. Although Shen Hao was tired and his physical strength was no longer at its peak, such an attack was still discovered by him in advance. However, this was on top of a cliff, and there was no space around him for him to move and dodge, and under the crisis, Shen Hao put his arms close to his ribs and made a passive defensive posture.

The black shadow swept Shen Hao without any suspense, and a strong force was about to drag him into the cave. Shen Hao supported the rock wall with his feet, the black shadow dragged it twice and still didn't move, Shen Hao also saw clearly at the moment, this was a blue-veined python, thicker than his own thighs, and the brown scales were covered with diamond-shaped cyan patterns.

However, this snake was obviously not a demonic beast, just an ordinary mountain beast, so despite his efforts to drag, he was helpless against Shen Hao for a while. The so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, although Shen Hao's physical strength is now very overdrawn, but it is not such a beast that can be bullied at will.

After a few more drags, the giant python saw that Shen Hao was indifferent, and in anger, he opened his snake kiss and bit Shen Hao fiercely on the back of his neck. This is also one of the python's housekeeping skills, although it has no fangs, but usually with its biting force, the cervical vertebrae of ordinary animals are easily bitten off by it, and then the opponent who loses the ability to resist is the food of his own stomach. However, this time, it hit a wall again, and the snake's fangs pierced into Shen Hao's muscles like piercing into elastic rubber, no matter how hard it tried, it couldn't penetrate a single point.

Just when it was still struggling with Shen Hao's neck, Shen Hao sneered slightly, and his arms that were twisted by the giant python slammed hard, and the sound of broken bones like bursting beans sounded one after another. As soon as the snake's mouth that was biting the back of his neck loosened, the snake's head immediately hung down weakly.
