Doomsday magician

Chapter 239 Pursuit
"Who dares to break ground on Tai Sui's head, touched Anshun Island, injured Boss Xu's subordinates, and even stole things?"

After Xu Bai ordered his subordinates to mobilize the full strength of the alliance, this somewhat shocking news quickly spread throughout the Changshan Lake area. !I don't know who dared to attack Xu Bai's garrison who has more than 4000 troops and many supernatural beings.

However, doubts were nothing but suspicions. After receiving Xu Bai's request for assistance, they still cooperated and dispatched their staff.

Among them, An Hai and the others were the most active.In any case, more than half of Anshun Island is still in his hands.Someone who entered Xu Bai's residence was actually equivalent to infiltrating into his territory.Several people sneaked in quietly, and left quietly with their things. They didn't realize that this was undoubtedly a provocation and a slap in the face to the strength of the Anshun Island camp.

Therefore, after learning about those men in black, Anshun Island dispatched 800 people to help.

Because it was already dark, the people sent out to search did not dare to leave the lake shore too far, but searched nearby.Moreover, the only thing they can use is torches. In the dark night, it is indeed not easy to find the traces left by a few well-trained masters.

"Ah, help!"

A person who accidentally left the brigade was unfortunately attacked by a wandering second-order mutant zombie. Because of the cover of darkness, he did not find the zombie in advance.It was too late by the time of the close encounter, and this unlucky guy couldn't escape.

This kind of danger immediately made many people retreat.

Although it has only been a long time since the war, and there are many supernatural beings hunting all day long, there are very few zombies nearby.But there are always exceptions to everything, and this second-order mutant zombie is the best proof.Coming out at night, the danger is higher, and they don't want to risk their lives for other people's affairs.

After learning about this situation, Xu Bai made a decisive decision and offered a substantial reward.

"The first to discover traces of the enemy, after confirmation, will be able to obtain a position unconditionally, and his companions will also get fifty catties of food each."

"Position?"

The newly issued incentive measures had an immediate effect, and under the stimulation, everyone went crazy.Although there is usually one opportunity in weekly training, but there are so many strong people, it is difficult to grab that position without real skills.But it is different now. Searching for this at night is not only a little risky, but also depends more on luck.If you have a good character and discover the direction of the enemy's escape and the traces left behind, that seed will be yours.

Taking a step back, even if the seeds are not his own, if a companion finds them, he will still have fifty catties of grain to take.

Thinking of this, the hearts of everyone who went out to search were filled with enthusiasm, wishing to put their faces on the ground, eager to find any suspicious traces.Some survivors who stayed on the island couldn't sit still anymore, and under the temptation of their positions, they took the initiative to take a boat to the lake, wanting to join the search temporarily.

"There are a series of footprints here, which seem to be newly left."

"Traces of broken branches were found on the east side."

"A pile of fresh poop, is it the intruder's? Haha, the position belongs to me."

A mess of information was quickly reported to Xu Bai's subordinates, and some people vowed to come to the door from time to time, saying that they had found reliable news.But after tossing around for most of the night, it was proved that these news were not the men in black who had sneaked onto the island.

"Have you not found it yet?"

Xu Bai, who was waiting in the station, couldn't sit still anymore.

You know, those people had been away for seven or eight hours since they found out.After most of the night, they don't know how far they have gone. If it's okay to go by land, if it's by water, after such a long time, it's almost impossible to find it again.The easiest way is to enter the Yangtze River, such a wide river basin, God knows where they will land.

"We can't help it. The opponent should have a very professional anti-reconnaissance awareness. We have searched all possible places, but we can't find any traces." Leopard, who was in charge of screening the reported news, said with chapped lips. As a former underworld Second in command, he and several of his subordinates took on the heavy responsibility of searching for traces of the enemy.Besides him, the fourth child under Boss Liu also participated in the whole process.As a reconnaissance company of the army, the fourth child is undoubtedly more professional in this regard.

"Also, the low visibility tonight has seriously affected the progress of the search," he added.

Xu Bai frowned, and asked, "You mean, there might be a result at dawn?"

The leopard nodded and said, "Thousands of people are looking for it together. Unless the other party can fly with wings, it is absolutely impossible to leave no trace. If it is dawn, there should be a high possibility of finding something."

What he said was right, almost at dawn and the sun peeking out from the horizon, someone finally found footprints and ruts on a shoal on the east bank of Changshan Lake District.Despite the disguise, under the vicious eyes of the fourth child, he still keenly noticed the suspiciousness.

"The method is very clever, it should be the elite or special forces in the army."

Seeing Xu Bai coming after hearing the news, the fourth child who had already seen through the appearance confidently pointed out to him one by one.Under his guidance, Xu Bai and the others walked all the way up along the shoal that was nothing out of the ordinary. Sure enough, they saw water stains and faint ruts in the shape of footprints on the road not far away.

"I have to say, the other party is very powerful. If it is placed before the end of the world, when there are people everywhere, the traces of the treatment may soon be lost in the cover of other people. But it is different now, this place is relatively remote, and there may not be any people in a week Survivors passed by. Any sign of unnaturalness can become decisive evidence to reveal the direction of their escape."

"Then what are you waiting for? Go after it."

Xu Bai didn't say a word, let the fourth one sit on the Dongfeng Warrior who he transported to the shore with the boat, and Leopard was with him.In the previous battle against the 14 zombies, Leopard benefited a lot.

Xu Bai brought him along this time just in case.Although he has enough confidence in his own strength, if the enemy escapes separately, they will not be helpless.

"Boss Xu, that position..."

The person who noticed the trace first rubbed his hands with a flattering smile on his face.

"For you."

Xu Bai's thoughts were all on recovering the kidnapped supernatural being. He opened the window and threw a note to him.Then, in his gratitude, the warrior car accelerated towards the east with a low and powerful roar.

Sitting in the passenger seat, the fourth child stared wide-eyed, carefully examining the front, and refused to let go of any possible clues.However, no matter how hard he tried, the three of them quickly lost the traces left by the enemy.

"strangeness."

The fourth child shook his head and jumped out of the car.After wandering around for a while, he found the right direction again.

Next, familiar things happened again and again.At every interval, they were losing track of the enemy.After the fourth child tried his best, they would not be left halfway.But in this way, their pursuit speed was greatly slowed down, and sometimes they even turned around because they were misled.Several hours passed, and the three of them hadn't driven fifty kilometers.

When he found the opponent's direction for a while, the fourth child did not get into the car immediately, but pondered for a while, and said: "It seems that the opponents are not only more cautious than I expected, but the number is far more than three or five."

"why?"

Xu Bai glanced at him, wanting to hear his reasons for making this inference.

"Is it necessary for them to take such rigorous measures for the camps that the survivors set up spontaneously? If it was me, I'm afraid it wouldn't take so much effort. The most likely reason is that these actions of erasing clues and traces have become their Instinct, in a nutshell, is habitual. As for the number, it can be seen from their car marks and the people who support and mislead us. I estimate that there may be at least 15 opponents, or even more.”

His words silenced Xu Bai and Leopard: "You mean, it's hard to catch up with them?"

Since there are so many opponents and they are very cunning, Xu Bai can easily think of this result according to common sense, which makes him a little hard to accept
"No, quite the opposite."

The fourth child sniffled and smiled confidently: "I think we are close to catching up with them, and it may only take an hour or two."

Xu Bai was a little confused by his contradictory words, he asked, "How did you see that?"

The fourth child grinned, and asked back: "If the opponent kidnapped someone and turned around and ran away, why did they come up with so many methods to cover up their traces? They just need to speed up and leave so far in advance, it will be difficult for us to leave." Can catch up. Even if it is out of habit, it is impossible to explain it all. The more likely reason is that they did not plan to go too far, but continued to entangle nearby for some reason. Another point is that the roadside Zombie limbs, I noticed that the distance between the corpses of the zombies killed along the way was not consistent. I guess they had been stranded on the way for a while, so that they just passed by our current location three or four hours ago. "

Xu Bai's eyes lit up, and he said, "In other words, they didn't actually pull us too far."

The fourth child nodded: "That's right. As for the reason, maybe they are confident enough in their means."

"Very good." Xu Bai waved his hand to signal him to get in the car quickly, and then let the leopard speed up the pursuit: "Since they haven't gone far, then don't even try to escape."

More than 40 minutes later, under the guidance of the fourth child, the Mengshi car drove into a deserted small village.
