Chapter 533: Despair
The shortcomings of contemporary technological development are vividly demonstrated in this escape, with loyal drones wreaking havoc at low altitudes, powerful thermal sensing capabilities that make him nowhere to hide, and specially trained search and capture units to explore his clues, not to mention the indelible footprints under the heavy snow.
As soon as his position is discovered, it is almost a thousandth of a second apart, and his position is sent to all the military headquarters involved in the pursuit, followed by a seamless encirclement by the military.
There are only two ways to survive, one is either to go undetected, or to break out of the siege after it is discovered, before the siege is officially formed.
In such a barren mountain range that is easy to leave traces, in the face of the Federation's high-tech armed and trained army, of course, the former cannot be realized, so Han Xu can only choose the latter.
After skiing down from the hundreds of meters high snow-capped mountain, they went through two round-ups, one was seven days ago in a valley, and they were found by drones again in the face of hundreds of soldiers, Han continued to kill six soldiers after breaking out of the encirclement, and was forced to the cliff, without hesitation, immediately jumped off the cliff with Bai Liuyi, relying on the pure Jun sword inserted into the mountain wall as the force to slow down the fall, and the earth attribute rock shield card as a protection when falling to the ground, plus luck did not touch the hard rock surface, so he was able to escape.
The second time was four days ago, when Han Xu was trying to find the hibernating snake through the snake cave by the frozen river, he encountered a six-person exploration team, and the strongest person in the team was a grandmaster like him. Although in the end, he relied on his strong willpower to defeat the Phantom Attribute Xuanka attack, and killed the Xuanka Master with the Hell Flame, but his own sea of consciousness also suffered a heavy blow, and his last combat strength was wiped out.
After this battle, he took advantage of the situation to grab a car, and the car without much fuel helped them to distance themselves from the enemy to a certain extent, so that they could break out of the encirclement again before the second encirclement was officially formed, but they only drove forty or fifty miles before they ran out of fuel and broke down on the side of the road, and then walked for several days until this place.
Both times he was killed from the ranks with extreme difficulty, and although he survived for the time being, the enemy's pursuit was always like a hungry wolf, and could appear from anywhere in all directions at any time, and his condition became worse and worse.
......
Han Xu knelt on the ground and gasped for a long time, the exhaustion was devouring every cell in Han Xu's body, making him feel like a tree that was rapidly dying in the cold winter. The enemy hadn't found him yet, he had fallen to his knees like this more than a dozen times, and each time he knelt down, the exhaustion that had brought him to the brink of a coma only hit his mind was even stronger, and now he felt like he could barely get up.
All the elixirs have been eaten, all the Xuanka that can be used have been used up, although the spiritual power and vitality can be restored, but there is no source of replenishment without food supplements, so it has always been maintained in a state of exhaustion, plus he has not rested for more than twenty days, and has been kept in a highly tense state of escape, the original powerful dare no longer exists, under all kinds of extreme conditions, on the contrary, the feeling of death began to spread from his body.
When the ammunition was exhausted, this feeling was very familiar, and when he was very young, he understood it in the hands of the White Emperor.
At that time, a group of them were abandoned on the barren mountain, fending for themselves, and without any ability to survive, in addition to facing the attack of wild beasts, the biggest danger was the crisis inside the body. The demands of physical function, extreme exhaustion and mental stress are often more likely to make people desperate than they are injured.
He survived back then, but he will never forget his panic more than ten years ago, and the rest of the children died, all of which occasionally appear in his dreams, but for him who is already strong, it is not enough to become a nightmare, purely a memory of the past. Negative information is the most powerful driving force, and these are also one of the forces that spur him forward.
Now compared with more than ten years ago, he has been countless times stronger, but in a trance, he feels as if he has returned to more than ten years ago, he is still the little boy who is helpless in the face of life and tribulations, and this original motivation to spur him forward, the original fear and powerlessness, but the current situation is superimposed on his heart.
The person on his back was asleep, and the force pressing on him made him feel heavier and heavier, and this heaviness was also a reminder, a responsibility that he was unwilling to let go of no matter what.
He shook his head vigorously to make himself more conscious, gritted his teeth, as if it were an old but still running machine, and struggled to stand up again with a soft grunt squeezing between his teeth.
The snow on his body was rolling down, and the staggering footprints on the white snow began to grow again.
With the white robe on his back, he squinted his eyes with difficulty, and the beautiful eyes that covered the sky were only covered by the sky at this time. Although the toxin was suppressed in the body by Huang Tang Huan, the cold and exhaustion made her body, which was fragile due to her injuries, also in a state where she could faint at any time, and what she cared about now was not herself, but she was very distressed that her body was not burly at the moment, and even in front of this cold winter and the mighty army.
The hand, which was so white that it made people feel sickly, rested gently on his back, and he didn't have the strength to caress it, and the weak strength of his cold fingertips was still transmitted through his combat uniform.
Han Xu could feel what she meant, and he could also feel that there was no need to deliberate in this weakness, which was enough for him to understand, and he turned his head sideways and tried to suppress all the tiredness and weakness, gave her the best smile for herself, and said slowly: "No...... Thing, I'm fine. ”
Bai Liuyi didn't have the strength to answer, closed his eyes slightly, and pressed his cheek against his back.
It was difficult to find food in such a cold weather powerhouse, and some ordinary plant rhizomes were simply not enough to support the requirements of the two cultivators, but they had not eaten all the way, and if they didn't get food again, both of them might really freeze to death in the cold winter.
She understood, but she didn't have to say it.
"Holy Queen?" Han Xu lowered his head and called softly.
In the pocket, the surface of the lotus seed has slowly grown wrinkles, like an ordinary seed that has been dehydrated a lot, inside the lotus seed, in the somewhat fantastic lotus space, the defenseless Huang Tang Huan is suspended in mid-air, and the spiritual liquid that originally completely wrapped her has bottomed out, like a dead well in a dry day.
The significance of the spiritual fluid to her is self-evident, although there is no successful precedent for resurrection and resurrection to learn from, and there is no classic book to rely on for the internal situation, but as a party concerned, he still knows very well that when the spiritual fluid completely disappears, it should be the time when Huang Tang Huan dies completely.
Huang Tang Huan didn't answer, but Han Xu knew that she was still awake, and this silence also made the already oppressive atmosphere even heavier.
Arriving at the Huanglian Desert is the key to the initiation of this resurrection and resurrection, if you can't be reborn in the Huanglian Desert, then even if Huang Tang Huan is reborn once, it doesn't make any sense. Originally, they were supposed to reach the Yellow Refining Desert in a month, but now there are only about ten days left, but they are still in Jianglong Province, and there are still hundreds of kilometers away from the Yellow Refining Desert, and with their current situation, the rebirth plan has basically completely failed.
The corners of Huang Tang Huan's mouth opened a bitter smile, he didn't expect that he would fail in such a way in the end.
Han Xu is not an optimist, but he has never been pessimistic, but the current situation makes him feel hopeless.
He knew that many people in the Federation wanted to see themselves die, many people seemed to let themselves die, and the least thing he liked in his life was to do what the people he didn't like, but at the end of the road, he couldn't think of how to continue to live.
Suddenly a cave appeared in front of him that could barely be seen in the snow, and the survival experience and the knowledge told in the night school survival class made him immediately judge that it was a rabbit hole.
A living creature means the continuation of life for him and Bai Liuyi now, although there is no change in the expression on Han Xu's face, but there is a strong sense of urgency in his heart, as if he has seen the rabbit in the cave and the hope of life.
When he came to the cave and pulled out the sword, this pure Jun sword, which had accompanied him for more than a year, became a farming tool for reclamation, and the cave was quickly destroyed in his hands, and it quickly appeared in front of his eyes.
However, in the end, the cave was empty, and from the remnants of hair, it could be barely seen that there had been no living creatures in the area for some years.
The sunlight fell through the clouds and fell into the forest, and the gray light made the snowy land a little dark, and the reflection of the snow did not add much light, but only made the dim one a little more hurtful.
Han Xu felt endless exhaustion, like the cold wind at the moment, sweeping in, leaving him with nowhere to hide and nowhere to go.
"Cold ......"
"Hmm. ”
"We ...... Will you die?"
"No, it won't. Han continued to shake his head, put away all his negative emotions, and walked forward, "I won't want you to die." ”
Han Xu didn't know how he was feeling when he said this, so he just replied casually.
......
After walking for half a kilometer, it is still in the snow-white pine forest, flanked by two tall mountain walls, as if two giants are looking at it.
Han continued to walk with difficulty, because just ahead, a team of more than ten people was waiting.
