261. Expedition team
O'Connor and the others took advantage of the weakening of the attack of the black-clothed people and seized the opportunity to catch up with the ship, but at this time, they found that there were more than twenty black-clothed people on the deck where they were standing, all of them were bloodied in their chests, and they were obviously killed by Chen Kai's shaking hand just now!
Everyone looked a little ignorant, they all thought that Chen Kai was powerful enough, but now it seemed that they still underestimated his powerful perversion. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you hurry up and start the boat? Let's get out of here. After Chen Kai looked at everyone in a daze, he couldn't help but urge them with some tears and laughter, and then continued to guard the black-clothed people around him, always ready to resist the attack for everyone.
But fortunately, until Chen Kai and the others drove away, the men in black did not fire another shot, and everyone was able to continue driving, and there was a small episode on the way, that is, they met Benny and his group. "H... O'Connor" A torch lit up on the other side of the river, and then the fire showed what appeared to be a group of Americans, and among them came a thin figure gloating towards them, shouting: "You boy is big, and the supplies and horses are on our side!" ”
"Who is he?" Jonathan stepped forward to ask, and O'Connor shrugged his shoulders and whispered, "His name is Benny, a soldier who survived the City of the Dead like me." "It seems that there is nothing to say about it, and it is very troublesome to go back now, and there are not many supplies, so O'Connor decided to leave straight away and not go back to rob it; Looking back at Benny, who was still smug on the other side, O'Connor shouted, "I'll tip you, ... "Chen Kai also knows this guy, in the original book, this Benny is linked to 'desertion, betrayal, shameless ......', this is the case on the battlefield, and it is still the case after retirement, I am afraid that all the derogatory terms that can be found in the dictionary seem to be used on this person, so after learning that the supplies were seized, his first thought was to kill them.
However, since O'Connor had decided not to go back and waste time, he was too lazy to do it, and as everyone continued on the road on the boat lying on his back, he simply had a small amount of supplies on the ship of the man in black, so everyone did not need to pause for the time being; After a day's drive, it was time for them to disembark--- and the river had dried up and could no longer be driven.
So they had to face the dilemma, now they had to start walking on foot before they found the oasis, and because the black market in Cairo had been cleaned up by the military, the plan to replenish supplies was disrupted, and the desert oasis was also the last place for them to replenish supplies, no matter what, now they had to rush to the oasis before dark!
It's just that due to the previous attack and the horses all falling into the hands of the Americans on the other side, O'Connor and Evelyn are not in high spirits, but Jonathan is still more active, in his words, after all, this kind of stimulation does not happen every day.
The people did not have any means of transportation on land, so their speed of progress was also slow, and they needed to walk for at least half a day to reach the oasis market, but this was okay, now this place is closer to the river, they can also replenish the water source, they walked along the river for a little half an hour, and gradually the water trails were no longer visible, replaced by some stone roads, and the ground gradually began to have some small plants on the edge of the desert, most of them have experienced the desert, There are no strange and unaccustomed reactions, but some feel that time will be a little difficult.
In a dreary atmosphere, everyone began a long trek that lasted three hours, except for Chen Kai, who came to the oasis of the desert, and then was led by O'Connor to the entrance of the largest oasis market in front of the desert, where they had to change their clothes and bring supplies.
This oasis is a small town with abundant underground water veins, and almost all other common goods can be found except that there is no one to sell them, especially camels, which are necessary to enter the desert. The people did not hesitate at the moment, and after replenishing all the fresh water and food, they bought five camels, four for rides, and one for loads; Then everyone began to move towards the capital of the dead, even if they were sleepy and tired, they just took a nap on their camels, so that the seemingly long time of three days and three nights passed quickly, and everyone got closer and closer to the capital of the dead.
It's just that there is only one way to the capital of the dead starting from the oasis! So soon, they met again with a group of people they didn't want to meet・・・・・・
"Hi, good morning, my buddy." Benny shouted to O'Connor from a distance, smiling and waving his arms, as if nothing had happened with their supplies before, O'Connor didn't say anything about his cheeky behavior, but just led everyone closer and closer to the opposing team, and then the two sides stood in a row several meters apart, and there was only an empty sand in front of them, and the two sides confronted each other for a while before they began to pack their bags.
An American behind Benny asked strangely, "Benny?" What are we stopping here for? Didn't you say that you were already close to the capital of the dead? If you want to go, hurry up, what are you doing here? Benny pursed his lips and said lightly: "My friend, be patient, it's almost ......"
Behind O'Connor here, Eve also asked in a curious whisper, "What are we doing here?" "Here...... Wait for the destination to appear. O'Connor replied in a low voice. Is there some trouble? Eve looked at O'Connor's slightly furrowed brows and had a premonition, O'Connor nodded, and at the same time tightened the pistol in his hand: "Yes, he led the way for those Americans...... That is to say, Hamnata is no longer our patent, now a group of competitors are coming! ”
"So those Americans also went to explore treasures?" Chen Kai didn't show surprise because he already knew about it, he shrugged: "The one who has the last laugh is the winner, and it's a good thing to have competition; Besides, the vitality of our side is no worse than theirs・・・・・ if we really fight, the outcome is still unknown・・・・・ do you say? O'Connor. O'Connor glanced at Chen Kai and smiled.
