Chapter 165: It's all fate
"Run, run, run!"
The turtledove pulled the worm, and the two of them scurried between the buildings one after the other, and they just took advantage of Rebecca's attention to be attracted by Goliath, and easily burrowed into an alley on the side of the road, and thanks to Goliath, the momentum was amazing enough, Rebecca really didn't notice that the turtledove and the worm were gone.
By the time she came to her senses, the two young men had fled to the middle of nowhere.
The little worm is not a madman like a turtledove, and her physical strength is far from enough to support such a vigorous long run, not to mention that she has only been hit on the head twice in front of her, and the symptoms of concussion are faintly showing signs at this time.
But the little worm didn't dare to stop, she didn't know if she and the turtledove had gotten rid of Rebecca, in case she and the turtledove had absolutely no chance of winning, only a dead end.
But the worm still couldn't hold on.
"Wait, wait," the little worm shook off the turtledove's hand and held his knee breathlessly, "Can you let me catch my breath first, IāI can't breathe." ā
When running, the insect was still able to barely support, and when she stopped, the whole person of the insect instantly seemed to be drained of strength, gasping for a few seconds, cold sweat broke out on her face, and finally her eyes turned black for a while, and she sat on the ground with a "bang".
"Oh, oh my god, I feel like I'm going to die."
The breathless little worm simply lay on her back on the ground, she opened her arms, panting heavily, her chest fell together, and she looked really tired.
The turtledove was not easy either, he pinched his waist with both hands, paced in place several times in a restless manner, and from time to time raised his head to look around vigilantly, his eyes revealing nervousness.
"Get up," Turtledove felt unable to sit still, "I'll carry you on my back." ā
As she spoke, the turtledove had already bent down to pick up the little insect on the ground, and carried her on her back, and the turtledove shook off its two long legs, and ran wildly in a hurry.
ā¦ā¦
After a morning of tossing, the time came from early morning to morning, and the turtledove, who had escaped for a long time with the worm on his back, knew that if he continued to stay in the abandoned city, he would be caught by Rebecca sooner or later, so the safest way was to leave the abandoned city.
It's just that on the other side, Schultz and Natalia are still waiting for him and Worm to go back, although Schultz said that he will definitely leave with Natalia before noon, but Turtledove knows that if he and Worm really don't go back by noon, Schultz may not leave with Natalia.
Because he is such a person, not to mention that Natalia is still Worm's little aunt, she can face Geraint and Enid alone in order to protect Worm, so it is basically impossible for her to leave Worm and leave the abandoned city with Schultz.
It seems that he and Worm have to hurry back to Schultz and Natalia round, and then the four of them will leave the abandoned city together, which is the safest way.
Thinking so in his heart, the turtledove did not stop under his feet, and he said in his heart that this place was very close to the residents' committee, and the residents' committee was not too far from Schultz and Natalia's hiding place, and it was still some time before noon, and he should be able to make it in time.
ā¦ā¦
The whole abandoned city was still in the turmoil of the previous night, and there were no pedestrians in the streets, or no normal person would choose to go out at this time, not to mention that the governor himself ordered that all the inhabitants should stay in their homes, and that the roar of the tide callers could be heard everywhere, and the monsters that could be seen everywhere, and that no one in his right mind would go out of the house.
Turtledove wasn't familiar with the abandoned city, and he didn't know where the roads led to, but as long as they were in the right direction.
That being said, when the turtledove had really passed a few intersections, turned a few corners, and passed through a few small alleys, he looked up sharply, and found that he seemed to have been there.
It's not like, it's that he did.
"Lost?"
The little worm lying behind the turtle dove finally gasped for breath at this time, and she looked around with her neck high, - no, the turtle dove carried her around and came back again.
"What people!"
Turtledove was about to defend his sense of direction when there was a sudden noise behind him, and he turned around in a slightly panicked way to see several soldiers armed with guns, a patrol loyal to the Abandoned Residents' Committee.
"It's over."
One of Turtledove's hearts fell to the bottom, and he subconsciously took two steps back, only to see more patrol members appear in the other direction.
Swallowing his saliva, the turtledove said that there were jackals in front and tigers in the back, and that both ends of an alley were blocked, and that he was not a parasitic beast in Goliath's stomach, and that he could not climb the wall.
"It's over, it's over, it's over."
The turtledove looked at the front for a while, and the back for a while, it was not convenient for him to carry the worm on his back, and the worm was not only seriously overdrawn, but she also did not have any firearms at hand, and the worm in this state had almost no combat effectiveness.
The Tide Caller failed to kill himself and the Bugs, and neither did the Humanoid Monster, the Wanderer, and Goliath, and managed to escape from under Rebecca's nose, only to die at the hands of a group of ordinary patrolmen, which made the turtledove feel like a nest.
Turtledoves are ready to fight hard with these patrol members, anyway, they are all dead, and turtledoves are not a person who likes to sit still.
ā¦ā¦
"It's the two of you?"
The patrol team members parted, and a man who looked like a captain walked out, and the turtledove and the worm were looking at him, and he was also looking at the turtledove and the worm.
The worm had seen him, and the turtledove had seen him, and the two of them had just rescued the patrol leader from the wanderers and a pack of humanoid monsters.
Turtledove didn't expect to go around in a big circle, and actually went back to the area where the other party led the team to patrol, if this is not called fate, Turtledove can't think of any other words to describe this coincidence.
At the signal of the captain, the patrol members put down the guns in their hands one after another, and one of them nervously whispered a few words in the captain's ear, as if to advise the captain, saying that his behavior might be unfavorable to himself, who knew that the captain waved his hand and said:
"Needless to say, let the two of them go, I'll take care of what happens."
The captain spoke like this, how dare the patrols under him stop again, watching the patrols in front of him give way to an exit, the turtledove was about to leave with the worm on his back, and when he passed by the patrol leader, the turtledove whispered:
"Thank you."
Looking at the backs of the turtledove and the insect gradually moving away, the patrol leader didn't say anything, he turned around and looked at his group of brothers, and said:
"We owe it to both of them that we are still alive."
