Before dawn, the Nanzhao Kingdom launched an attack. The rumbling sound of cannons was endless. The group finally gathered and prepared to escape the fortress that was about to be breached.
After leaving the underground bar, Luo Kai raised his head. There was still a trace of gray fog lingering in the sky. Only he could see it. The people around him didn't feel it.
This reminded Luo Kai of a famous scientific experiment, which was the famous double-slit interference experiment. To put it simply, when human beings observed and observed microscopic particles, the particles would take on two different forms. It was as if microscopic particles had thoughts and consciousness, and they were omniscient and omnipresent. When there was no observer, they were a wave function, but when they knew that someone was observing them, they immediately took on the characteristics of particles.
This was the scary part. The physical world that people saw was only what they wanted them to see. No one knew what the real world looked like.
The double-slit experiment made people doubt the authenticity of this world. The existence of dark matter also supported this experiment. Dark matter accounted for 80% of the total matter in the universe. In other words, the world of dark matter may be the real world, but humans didn't understand it.
Gao Gang and the others had already planned several escape routes. One of them was to climb up the mountain that Ironwood Fort relied on. At the top of the mountain was a small airport. The airport had already been bombed by the Nanzhao Kingdom. It was full of ditches and wreckage, but it didn't prevent them from escaping. At this time, the sky was still dark. The group quietly climbed down from the top of the mountain like ants.
When it was time to say goodbye, Gao Gang was a little hesitant. Finally, he pulled out a large pistol from his waist and handed it over. "Little Luo, this gun is called Desert Storm. It's specially made and very powerful. I'll give it to you as a souvenir."
"Thank you."
Luo Kai reached out and took it. This gun was much bigger and heavier than ordinary pistols. It was not easy for ordinary people to pick it up with one hand. It was a bit like the famous Desert Eagle in his previous life.
Scarlet Cloud hesitated slightly and took out a gene medicine with a light blue liquid. "You may need this. I'll give you one. When you have time, meditate and practice. We Elementalists are different from Physique Warriors. We can practice some simple physical skills to strengthen the body, but there's no need to go too deep." After saying that, she stuffed it into Luo Kai's hand.
Luo Kai was a little touched. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He could only say thank you.
Black Bear came over and patted him on the shoulder. "Little Luo, I don't have anything to give you. When you come to Dongyuan, I'll treat you to good wine!"
"Okay."
Luo Kai nodded in agreement, then whispered in his ear, "I've thought of a way that should be able to get rid of the smell on your body."
"Really!" Black Bear said excitedly.
"I'll go back to do.....
. "Luo Kai smiled. In fact, the rancid smell on Black Bear's body was a manifestation of Evil Energy. It should not be difficult to get rid of it. However, this was a battlefield. There was too much Evil Energy. It would be troublesome if it caused the Evil Energy to go berserk. Moreover, Evil Energy had its pros and cons. It could greatly increase a person's courage and even strength and speed. For these mercenaries who often had to put their lives on the line, the pros outweighed the cons.
After parting ways, Luo Kai walked towards the remote mountains without the smell of gunpowder. Along the way, a beautiful face flashed in his mind from time to time. It made his blood flow unconsciously accelerate. He simply ran faster and faster until his whole body turned into a puff of green smoke.
The feeling of running at full speed through the wilderness was like a bird flying in the sky. It was a kind of unrestrained feeling of extreme freedom. Gradually, his whole body left the ground and directly jumped between the trees. Every time he borrowed a little force, he could slide seven to eight meters away ….
Luo Kai didn't know how long he had been running, but there was still an endless mountain range in front of him. Moreover, it seemed somewhat familiar. Luo Kai stopped and looked around. He couldn't help but scratch his head. He seemed to be running in circles.
It was too easy to get lost in this boundless forest alone. Recalling the limited wilderness survival knowledge, he walked while distinguishing the direction.
After walking for about an hour, the tip of his nose once again smelled the smell of gunpowder. The forest in front of him seemed to have gone through a fierce battle. There were bullet marks everywhere and many corpses. Looking at the corpses' clothes, they were the soldiers of the Nanzhao Kingdom. Luo Kai bypassed the forest and walked towards the southwest. Not long after, he heard an incoherent and faintly discernible sobbing sound.
Luo Kai frowned and stopped walking. He raised his head and looked at the dense canopy. He could vaguely see a figure hiding in the canopy. He hesitated for a moment and then jumped onto the canopy.
A woman in black squatted in a narrow tree hole. She had an oval face, short hair, and red and swollen eyes. It was the little female soldier called Yue Han. Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road!
Seeing her face full of tears, but she did not dare to cry out loud. She had been sniffling and trying hard to suppress her tears. Luo Kai felt a little comfortable in his heart. He wanted to scare her, so he retracted his breath and quietly approached the tree trunk. When he was close, he said in a hoarse voice, "Caught you!"
The little female soldier was scared out of her wits. She did not even dare to look and got out of the tree hole in horror. As soon as she stood on the trunk, her legs went soft and she fell straight down.
Only then did Luo Kai see that her right leg was dripping with blood. Obviously, she had suffered a serious injury. He hurriedly jumped down and his arm suddenly stretched out in midair to catch her.
Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, the little female soldier suddenly took out a pistol and raised her hand to pull the trigger. The distance was too close and both of them were in midair. Even with Luo Kai's reflexes, he could not completely avoid it. He could only slightly turn his body to avoid the vital parts of his chest and abdomen. At the same time, he made up his mind and stretched out his other arm to firmly hold her neck. He suddenly remembered the situation when he first met this little female soldier. The murderous intent that rose in his heart disappeared.
"Bang!" The two of them fell to the ground at the same time. Yue Han screamed and collapsed in his arms.
Luo Kai lowered his head and looked at his left rib. A bullet was stuck in the surface of his skin. The skin had been transformed by the evil spirit energy and was extremely tough. The bullet actually did not penetrate it. He could not help but feel happy. However, when he looked at the person in his arms, he was so angry that his teeth itched.
However, the little female soldier had already fainted from the pain. Her leg was already injured and she had fallen from the tree. Although Luo Kai had taken most of the impact, she could not bear the severe pain when she fell to the ground.
Luo Kai was a little helpless. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have scared her. What should he do? He still had to hurry, but he couldn't leave her alone. After thinking for a long time, he could only pick her up and follow her aura towards the direction of the water flow.
When they came to a small stream, he put the little female soldier on the shore. He tore open her trousers and saw that her slender calf was dripping with blood. A bullet was stuck in her calf bone. The injury was very serious. If it was not treated as soon as possible, the girl's leg would not be saved.
Luo Kai was experienced in treating wounds. However, there was no anesthesia here. He did not know if the little female soldier could bear it. First, he tore a piece of cloth and wrapped it around her thigh artery. Then, he made a fire and took out the tactical knife from his waist. He placed it on the fire and roasted it. When the tip of the knife turned red, he was ready to remove the bullet from her leg.
When the hot tip of the knife touched her skin, Yue Han immediately woke up. Her first reaction was to punch Luo Kai.
Luo Kai reached out and pressed her arm. "I'm helping you remove the bullet. If you don't want your leg, then move."
Yue Han recognized Luo Kai. Seeing that half of her leg was exposed, she immediately said with shame and anger, "It's you. It's you, you bastard!"
"If you want your leg, then obediently listen to this bastard."
Luo Kai was too lazy to pay attention to her. He picked up a wooden stick and put it in her mouth. He coldly said, "Bite it."
Yue Han was stunned. She understood what had happened. She knew that this bastard was indeed helping her. She angrily bit the wooden stick. Her cheeks bulged and her eyes were fierce. It was as if she was biting Luo Kai.
