273 Vicious Hunter (I)
The dense clouds were blown open by the strong wind, and the scorching stellar light poured down, and the various creatures that were still active on the ground immediately scattered and fled, each looking for a dark place to hide. The temperature of the ground rises rapidly, and the hot air that rises soon distorts the scenery on the ground. Apart from the howling of the wind, there were few other sounds in the wilderness, and no trace of activity was visible.
In an abandoned Terran bunker, Zhang Yuan was sitting at the door of the bunker, carefully wiping down the parts of the stepping gun. When the last part was polished, he reassembled the gun with slow but precise movements, and then pushed a high-explosive bomb before carefully placing the gun beside him and covering the mouth with a strip of cloth to prevent dust. The Rifle was the guarantee of Zhang Yuan's survival in the wilderness, and after the Modified Bracelet became a waste due to the lack of ammo supply, the Modified Rifle is now Zhang Yuan's only weapon. And he has to fight with the group of Zerg Zerg puppies, and this step is even more of his reliance.
Zhang Yuan leaned against the wall and fell asleep. Half an hour later, Zhang Yuan opened his eyes, at this time the clouds in the sky closed again, and the wilderness was gray and gloomy, and the heat brought by the scorching sun just now was still lingering, stepping on the land, the heat wave was still steaming under his feet.
For five days, Zhang Yuan walked for two hours and rested for half an hour, alternating day and night. He walks at a constant speed, maintains a certain speed, and turns forward at any time. This is done so that the enemy who is following behind will misjudge. In critical moments, perhaps the slightest mistake can turn the tide of battle.
Zhang Yuan could feel that the enemy was getting closer and closer to Zhang Yuanzheng, but they had not met Zhang Yuan yet, and Zhang Yuan did not know where these enemies came from. When Zhang Yuan finishes a big circle, he may be able to find some clues from the traces left by the Zerg puppies.
Now that there was still plenty of time, Zhang Yuan slowly moved his body, began to organize his equipment, and looked at the map, thinking about the next route. When he saw the Ai Wen base on the map, Zhang Yuan's heart suddenly jumped. Regardless of where these enemies come from, judging by the time and location of their appearance, the Aven base is the most likely place to start.
Zhang Yuan walked out of the small building, and after walking for a few kilometers, he suddenly turned in a direction and slanted towards the Aiwen base.
Less than a hundred kilometers away from Zhang Yuan, Brunella and others found some of the latest traces under a big tree. The part-time electronic expert opened the map, which was no worse than Zhang Yuan's, and it was impressively marked with the route that Zhang Yuan had traveled these days, almost exactly the same. The electronics expert marked the latest location, and an almost complete semicircle appeared on the map. On this map, there are several places marked with red X, which is very scarlet.
"He's definitely spotted us, cunning fellow, and wants to take us around in circles." Brunei said with a sneer. He glanced at the electronics expert and asked, "Is that thing reliable?" ”
The electronics expert looked up and said sternly, "Except for Your Excellency Quivenlar, there should be no one in our team who can discover and destroy my device. ”
Bruneina's face was obviously a little unpleasant, but he didn't have a seizure, but looked at the map and said coldly: "If this guy really wants to go around with us, I hope you can give him a big enough surprise." ”
Brunella looked at the insect hunter again and asked with a little dissatisfaction, "Can't we be faster?" The insect hunter was studying the marks left on the ground when he heard Brunei's inquiry, looked up and said, "It can't be any faster." The traces he left behind are very scarce, and it is now the limit for us to track him, and that is because of luck, there has been no extreme weather in this area recently, otherwise a passing tornado would wipe out a qiē. Looking at the time of this trace, it is estimated that the distance between us and him is less than 100 kilometers. In another three days, we should be able to get into the distance of a dispersed outflanking attack. ”
"Three more days!" Brunei was obviously extremely dissatisfied with this answer, but it was pointless to blame a warrior insect hunter with a high-ranking title, Brunei itself had no replacement candidate, and it was impossible for a more senior insect hunter to come to him as a subordinate.
"Let's keep chasing! And, as before, with a qiē method, provoke him and let him come to us himself. Now take a 30-minute break, and in 30 minutes the whole team will go! Brunei gave the order.
The servants immediately put the dry food in their mouths, drank the water, and began to rest.
Emma ate her share of food slowly, and he wasn't in a hurry because it took ten minutes to eat anyway. In the past few days of cooperating with Brunei and Quivenlar's operation, Emma has been watching from the sidelines, silently remembering the details of what she saw. Both Brunella and Kui Venlar were very talented young men, and six of their ten followers were warrior ability people with high-level titles, and the rest were second-order. From a rough point of view, such a lineup can also be taken out of the Silver Ball Group Army, but the professionals of electronic experts, there are only a few people in the entire Silver Ball Group Army, and this kind of compound talent is in a high position at the Group Army Headquarters. How can they be like these people in front of them, who are almost indistinguishable from slaves?
In addition, the equipment of the Adjudicator Paladins is exquisite, simple, and practical, and almost all of them contain technology that surpasses the capabilities of the Silver Ball Army. For example, this marching pot, the Silver Ball Army cannot produce it on its own. Metallurgy, electronics, and mechanical finishing are all right, but high-efficiency solid fuels are far beyond the scientific capabilities of the group army.
Ten minutes to eat, twenty minutes to rest, the team's movements are as precise as clockwork. After five days of following Zhang Yuan around the wilderness, all the chariots were abandoned due to lack of fuel. Moreover, due to the speed of the car, Zhang Yuan's trace is often lost, and the efficiency is not as good as that of marching on foot.
In fifteen minutes, Emma had a good night's sleep, and as soon as the alarm clock rang, he jumped up energetically. Brunei looked at Emma with some respect. After five days of continuous tracking, even the servants of those high-ranking warriors began to look tired, only Bruneina, Quivenlar and Emma did not show any fatigue.
Night soon fell, and the cold wind dispelled the heat of the day. Zhang Yuan stood quietly, staring at the Aiwen settlement a kilometer away. In the deep darkness of the night, at this distance, even with his faint vision, only a rough outline could be faintly seen.
The wind was blowing, and the smell of rancid smell swept through the nose. You can smell it all the time in the wilderness, but tonight it's a bit stronger, and much fresher than the scents wafting around in the wilderness.
There was silence in the Evan settlement. Although it is usually at this time, most of the people in the settlement should be asleep. But there are still small groups of people who are active, numbing their nerves with alcohol, drugs and irritation. However, tonight's Evan is too quiet.
Darkness is Zhang Yuan's domain. He removed the modified rifle, loaded the bullet, and dove towards Evan like a ghost.
Zhang Yuan already knew that there were about two hundred residents in Aiwen's settlement, which was neither large nor small in terms of the size of a settlement.
After the settlement repairs that Terran base, the available buildings are defended in a ring. More than half of this is due to the need of the original Terran base to defend against external dangers. In the center is a small open space, which is usually a place for residents to meet or trade. The quarters of the Settlement Commander, a small wooden house, sat on the edge of the clearing.
And now, in the gloomy environment, there are now more things in the clearing. A three- or four-meter-long wooden pole with a corpse hanging from it, swaying back and forth in the fierce night wind. A gust of wind occasionally blew the corpse around, and by the faint glow of the night, it was recognized as Aven's commander.
A rope ran around the commander's neck and hung him from a wooden pole. But the rope didn't seem to be the cause of the Commander's death, his body was covered in burn marks, his entire body was almost charred, and a few intact limbs seemed to have been deliberately preserved, as the charred clothes were deeply embedded in them. However, his face miraculously did not show any signs of burning, and it was because of this that his expression of extreme pain before death was engraved.
