Chapter 383: Tracking
The sun was setting, and it was about to go down in another half an hour, at this time, Tang Tian followed Old Man Xu out of the city again, if he couldn't rush back before dark, he wouldn't be able to enter the city.
However, for Tang Tian, whether it is day or night, it doesn't matter if he enters the city or not, he is mainly worried about Old Man Xu's safety, and he didn't understand Old Man Xu's magical methods, Tang Tian didn't want anything wrong with Old Man Xu.
If you just look at the green scenery, people think it's summer, but the cool autumn breeze is in the body people, it's already late autumn, and winter is coming soon.
At this time, the number of people entering the city had begun to decrease, and there were no longer as many people as before, and Tang Tian and Old Man Xu did not attract anyone's attention when they left the city.
"It's two guys who don't put monsters in their eyes when they have a little ability, and when they are desperate, they don't know that they regret it, I've seen a lot of such people, and I don't know if I can come back", the soldiers standing guard saw Tang Tian and the two go out, still expressionless, but they sighed in their hearts.
Along the main road all the way forward, it is a straight road, this road goes deep into the area where the monsters are distributed, and generally no one will walk when it is dark, so when I saw Tang Tian and the two of them going, many of the people who came back were very different, but life was someone else's, and no one would care about them.
This road was not the one that Tang Tian went to the Ten Thousand Beast Forest, but in the opposite direction, if you walked all the way along this road, went around in a big circle, and passed through a few dangerous areas, there was a great chance to reach Sword Casting City.
"Old Xu, it's almost dark this day, do you rest assured that your little granddaughter ran so far to play? It's been several miles out of the city", Tang Tian said with a smile after looking at the sky.
"Huh. There's nothing to worry about, this monster within a radius of 100 miles has basically been cleaned up, and she is also with a team of elite soldiers from the City of Hope, there is absolutely no problem with safety", Xu Lao said reassuringly, mentioning his granddaughter. Old man Xu's face was full of smiles.
"It's been a long time since I've seen the sunset, and I haven't walked so quietly, it's okay to go out for a walk, just relax", Tang Tian looked at the sunset on the horizon and smiled, but a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes.
Tang Tian's mind is so keen, he didn't expect that he was already a few miles out of the city at this time, who would let a child run around with peace of mind? Still in the midst of these perilous last days? Don't say weak children. Even a strong survivor could not go out at this time, so Tang Tian had already sensed that something was wrong, but it was not broken, Tang Tian wanted to see who was giving him a moth.
Bang bang bang......
The ground shook, and as far as the eye could see, in front of the road, a group of soldiers were running here quickly, and Tang Tian's eyes flickered. Didn't say anything.
Those soldiers Tang Tian knew at a glance that they were soldiers patrolling in the City of Hope, and they were very embarrassed at this time. There were only twenty or thirty people left in the original team of 100 people at this time, and everyone was injured, and there were many missing arms and legs.
Soon those soldiers approached Tang Tian and the others, and after seeing them, Old Man Xu's face changed greatly, and his old body ran up quickly and asked anxiously, "Captain Wang." What's wrong with you guys? How can this be, my granddaughter"?
The anxiety on Old Man Xu's face was not pretended at all, seeing such a situation, Tang Tianyi frowned, could he have guessed wrong?
"It turned out to be Xu Lao, fast. Follow me back to the city, we were attacked by a sneak attack, dozens of brothers died, your granddaughter and my daughter were taken away, I have to go back to the city as soon as possible to report and let the city send someone to exterminate that group of damned guys", the armor on the head of Captain Wang was split by a long knife weapon, and he said with a sad and angry face after seeing Old Man Xu.
Because of the relationship between the children, this Captain Wang met Old Man Xu in the past few days.
"How can this be, my granddaughter, Captain Wang told me, what is going on"? Old man Xu's eyes flashed with despair, in the last days, there are too many beasts, although his granddaughter is very young, but what will happen if she falls into the hands of those scumbags, Old man Xu naturally knows.
"Just more than thirty miles away from here, we were already on the way back to the city, but I didn't expect a group of guys who specialize in robbing houses to sneak attack us, kill many of us, not to mention, and take away my daughter and your granddaughter, they are only teenagers, I have to hurry back to move the rescuers, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable, Lao Xu, you can also go back with me", Captain Wang said to Old Man Xu.
But seeing that Old Man Xu's eyes were desperate, he shook his head and led his subordinates towards the City of Hope quickly.
Although it was just a few words, Tang Tian on the side wrinkled tightly every day, there were too many restless people before the end of the world, there was no restraint of order in the end of the world, those people could do anything, what would happen to the two teenage girls Tang Tian could already predict.
It's good that I didn't meet it, I naturally had to be consistent when I met Tang Tian, not to mention that one of the girls was still the granddaughter of Old Man Xu, and Tang Tian's eyes had already appeared with a murderous aura.
"Old Xu, don't worry, the place where the accident happened is not far from here, I'll take you to have a look, I'll be there soon, there shouldn't be anything yet", Tang Tian said, and then lifted Old Man Xu with one hand, and his body flew forward.
Tang Tian's liliang was very big, Old Man Xu didn't seem to have any weight in his hand, Tang Tian's speed was extremely fast, and often the afterimage disappeared, and the others had already reached a very far place.
The distance of more than thirty miles is not long, but under Tang Tian's terrifying speed, it can be felt in minutes.
When I came here, I found traces of the battle, the surroundings were severely damaged, and there were dozens of broken corpses on the road, and the scene was extremely tragic.
The people in the last days don't want to fight like before, at most they are dead, once the people in the last days do it, the surroundings will be greatly damaged, and the soldiers on patrol are all above level 20, once the war starts, it is extremely destructive, and the ground around is full of traces of energy destruction, and even a few big trees hugged by one person have been broken.
"It seems that every time Captain Wang said, they were indeed ambushed, but it seems that those who ambushed should not have been away for long", Tang Tian's gaze swept casually in his heart.
Seeing so many people dead, Old Man Xu's face turned white all of a sudden, and he was worried about his granddaughter, and his face was full of despair.
"Old Xu, don't worry, there are no children's corpses here, your granddaughter should be fine, and those people haven't been away for long, I'll look for them, follow their traces and I will soon be able to catch up with them", Tang Tian comforted Old Man Xu while letting out the mutant demon vine.
The mutant demon vine absorbed the corpses of countless mutant beasts, and although it could not fully fuse the abilities of those mutant beasts, the ability to track was retained.
There was the aura of those ambushers fighting here, and the mutant demon vine quickly pointed out a direction for Tang Tian after locking it.
Old Man Xu was already frightened at this time, his eyes were dull, Tang Tian shook his head, and quickly walked in the direction of those ambushers with Old Man Xu.
After climbing over a mountain, Tang Tian found traces of people staying, but the people were already far away.
"Presumably this is where those ambushers have been before, there are traces left by large mutant beasts, there is no fighting, it should be those people's mounts or something, those people are likely to leave quickly on their mounts after the ambush is successful, but it is also haode, their mounts are all walking on land, there are traces to follow, and they can be chased quickly."
Tang Tian thought in his heart, chasing the footprints left by the mutant beast and quickly rushed in one direction.
The more he chased Tang Tian, the deeper his brows wrinkled, although his speed did not use all his strength, it was also very fast, but after chasing for an hour, he had already walked more than a hundred miles, but he still didn't see those people.
"It seems that there are masters among those people, and they can only travel so fast after taming powerful mutant beasts, no wonder, if they don't have enough strength, they won't dare to rob the people of Hope City."
Despite this, Tang Tian still couldn't understand the meaning of those people robbing the patrol team of the City of Hope, and they didn't have much money on them, so they didn't deserve it at all.
"Are you coming for me?" Tang Tian's heart moved, and he looked at Old Man Xu, who was being carried by himself, and thought in his heart.
Suddenly, Tang Tian stopped, in front of him, there stood a large mountain with a height of a thousand meters, which can also be said to be a small mountain range, stretching for several kilometers, there was a bright light on the top of the mountain, it was obvious that someone lived here.
"Those traces go straight to the mountain, it seems that this is their base camp, whether it is coming at me or not, no matter whose territory is here, since you dare to bring me here, you must be ready to bear my anger", Tang Tian's eyes were cold, thinking in his heart, and quickly went to the mountain.
Soon came to the mountain, and what appeared in front of Tang Tian was a wall that surrounded the city with thick wood, surrounding the entire mountaintop, and this mountaintop was extremely gentle, an open field, seven or eight kilometers long and about three kilometers wide.
"If you build a fortress on this mountain, it will be really easy to defend and difficult to attack", Tang Tian thought in his heart, and walked straight to the gate of the cottage.
There was no one guarding the gate, and there was no light, it was pitch black, but it didn't affect Tang Tian to see everything here.
The gate of the cottage is made of an extremely hard mutated tree.
A long knife appeared in Tang Tian's hand, his face was expressionless, and he slashed towards the gate, and the snowy sword qi lit up the night sky, and with a bang, the hard gate was shattered.
Raising his legs, Tang Tian took Old Man Xu and strode towards the inside of the cottage.
"Whoever comes here to make trouble, it's just looking for death......"
"Could it be that the mutant beasts are attacking here? Everyone is ready to fight......"
The gate was shattered, and the people inside the cottage were alarmed at once, and the pot exploded here...... (To be continued......)
