Gecko started the car without saying a word.
The off-road vehicle, like a roaring beast, plunged violently into the path on the left and drove away.
The few investigators who stayed on the spot looked a little strange. They had already conducted an extremely detailed investigation of the surrounding area and determined that those people were heading south. However, there was no trace of the trail on the left that went around the abandoned city. They also didn't know why the two Special Action Team, who had been sternly told by the top to cooperate, wanted to go there.
It was difficult to understand, and they couldn't help but feel...
... felt a sense of admiration, looked at each other, and whispered, "This may be a master. I can't understand what he is doing."
"It's time to head south."
Under the control of Gecko, the off-road vehicle drove at crazy speeds on the rugged road.
Every time we reach a critical moment, Mom will gently point out the direction.
Lu Xin didn't think much about it and told Gecko directly.
This made Gecko very surprised. He would drive with one hand from time to time and spread out the map with the other hand, flipping through it.
This is the latest map that Qinggang City has drawn in recent years about the surrounding terrain, traffic conditions, and some general situations. It marks all the gathering points and dangers within a thousand miles of the surrounding area. There are also different colors for road conditions. Some unfeasible, broken or obstructed roads are outlined with red pens.
A small cross sign means that vehicles cannot pass here.
Those connected by dotted lines mean that the road conditions are extremely difficult to drive, but you can barely pass.
A small map contained a lot of particularly valuable information, but Lu Xin couldn't understand it.
But fortunately, he can use Mom's ability to determine the enemy's location.
These directions, combined with Gecko's driving and road condition judgment capabilities, can help you find the best route.
"These guys are pretty good at running..."
After running around in a roaring manner for more than two hours, Gecko turned over the map and muttered.
Lu Xin nodded. Since leaving the city, they have not wasted time and have been catching up quickly. Moreover, he believes that the direction pointed out by Mom is accurate, which saves them a lot of time.
Although some road conditions were good and some were bad, under the driving of Gecko, their speed was always maintained at a speed of at least one hundred kilometers per hour.
Now after driving for more than two hours, they were almost two to three hundred kilometers away from Qinggang City.
Even the straight-line distance should be more than one hundred kilometers.
In this case, it means that after the opponent succeeded in Qinggang, he immediately fled away and did not even stop on the way.
It can be seen that the other party is very careful.
"However, this can at least prove that the other party is not the knights around us."
Gecko also analyzed verbosely. "There has always been a Knights outside the high wall. But the Knights are actually a group of robbers who drive a few broken motorcycles and carry a few broken guns to rob everywhere. Their targets are often small gathering bases or some transport teams walking around. They don't have the courage to attack High Wall City directly."
"Nowadays, as our influence in Qinggang is growing, many knights have begun to take the right path and have begun to take on transportation and escort tasks in our city, or some commissions for searching wasteland. Of course, they will still grab the opportunity occasionally as a side job."
Gecko said in a more confident tone, "The gathering points and activity ranges of these knights around us Qinggang City are basically under our control. And now that the few people we are chasing do not stop at all and keep walking outside, it means that their base is not around."
"I suspect that other High Wall City may have hired them to come to our Qinggang City specifically to do bad things..."
"..."
Lu Xin nodded slightly.
Judging from what I learned, this group of knights should be headed by Qin Ran.
They are not many in number, only about "seven people", but they are very capable, there are even three ability users among them, and they can cause chaos in the city. They can also target his and Chen Jing's convoy, ambushing him with six multi-barreled transformation machine guns.
The purpose of this group of people should be to steal the painting.
No one knows where they came from, why they snatched the painting, or how long they secretly investigated to find the painting.
But there is no need for him to know.
Investigating these things is Chen Jing's business. I went on this mission just to take them back.
"Whoosh..."
The tall and powerful modified off-road vehicle drove on the endless wilderness.
The four huge special rubber wheels coupled with the insanely strong steel skeleton make this car really look like a steel giant. No matter what kind of cracks or ravines it encounters, it will crush it with a "swish".
There were wolves walking in packs in the wilderness. They heard the noise from a distance and began to listen.
But when the monster approached, he was frightened and ran away.
Youbai Wang Wang looked at the puddle that didn't know what danger was lurking in it, and was rushed towards it by Steel Monster.
Huge water splashed up to a height of two to three meters, washing away the muddy car body.
There was a humanoid "lunatic" whose body had rotted and was walking mechanically and slowly in the middle of the road. When he heard the roar of the engine, he turned around dully, and only one of his cloudy eyes showed a sense of madness...
... But just as it turned around, it was hit by the roaring front of the car and turned into a puddle of meat.
"Don't look at me as just a sheep, oh..."
"The green grass also becomes more fragrant because of me, oh..."
"The sky becomes bluer because of me, wow..."
"The white clouds have also become soft, ouch ouch..."
"..."
Night was gradually falling, and the off-road vehicle had been driving for a long time without seeing anyone.
Only the ruins of some dilapidated villages can be seen in the distance and near, hidden by wildly growing vines or weeds. Perhaps not long after, even the last traces of these villages will disappear.
On the road covered with grass, there are only bright lights and the sound of Gecko singing.
His singing voice felt very familiar to Lu Xin. My sister seemed to like watching this cartoon before.
Later she stopped watching it, saying that the main character never got to eat the sheep.
However, the version sung by Gecko is different from the one Lu Xin remembers, and has a bit of a wild flavor.
Singing out the arrogance of those villains.
The singing spread far away, and from time to time, wild beasts from deep in the wilderness would roar in response to him.
"Won't singing like this attract a lot of lunatics?"
Lu Xin asked before he started to climax.
"Crazy?"
Gecko laughed and said, "It's not like ten or twenty years ago. There are not many lunatics now. Especially now, the roads we are taking are all the roads that some transport convoys used to take. They have already been cleaned up. The few we encountered along the way are all rare animals. If we can meet a group of them so easily, we are lucky..."
After brewing for a while, he started singing loudly again. "If there is any problem..."
Lu Xin had no choice but to interrupt him again and asked with a smile, "Why do you keep singing?"
Gecko turned to look at him and said, "Because you don't chat with me either. I sing to cheer up..."
Lu Xin thought for a while, Gecko had been driving for four or five hours, and said kindly, "Do you want me to take over for you?"
"No, no, no..."
Gecko shook his head repeatedly. "I can still hold on."
Lu Xin smiled helplessly and said, "Are you afraid that I can't drive?"
Gecko gave him a serious look and said, "No, I'm afraid that if I become useless, your family will..."
As he spoke, he made a gesture on his neck with his hand.
Lu Xin was surprised and thought: This guy also described my family so unreasonably...
Then I saw in the rearview mirror, Mom and my sister who got back into the car, both looking at Gecko with interest.
"If you can't catch up today, let's first..."
Lu Xin had no choice but to consider this issue and planned to find a place to rest first.
Gecko has been using his ability to drive. Although the use of his ability in driving is very simple, maintaining such intensity for four or five consecutive hours must be quite tiring. He does not want Gecko to get tired.
... After all, if you collapse from exhaustion, no one will drive for you.
However, just when he was about to make this suggestion, Mom in the back seat suddenly sat up straight.
She frowned slightly.
His expression looked a little disgusted, but he couldn't hide the slight excitement deep down.
The younger sister was obviously excited. She stuck her little head to the car window and sniffed hard.
Underneath the black hair, his eyes brightened visibly.
Lu Xin noticed something, slowly rolled down the window and looked out the window.
Gecko immediately covered his mouth and nose and said, "What does it smell like?"
Lu Xin looked out the car window without saying anything. He also smelled the refreshing smell of fresh blood.
The particularly strong smell of blood drifted in from the car window.
"I found it..."
At this time Mom smiled, covered his mouth and nose, and looked out the window.
"Right there..."
