C160 Chapter 160

Perhaps it was a coincidence, but the stormy weather suddenly cleared up. The crescent moon that was covered by the dark clouds, like a bride who had just entered the bridal chamber, finally revealed her face that was as red as she could get.

Faang Xuan's memory was still stuck on the day of the safety deposit box explosion. He only remembered that he was surrounded by Spider Monsters. When he thought that he would die for sure, the safety deposit box in his hand suddenly exploded. With his body, he slipped out of the wall. As for what happened afterwards, he didn't remember anything.

"What about those monsters? How long have I been unconscious for?"

Dragging his muddy body, Faang Xuan walked around the desolate plain. According to his memory, he came to the original farm. However, at this moment, apart from the ruins, there was no other mansion.

Not only that, even the mountain peak in the distance seemed to have changed. The originally lush and verdant trees were now hard to find.

"What happened? Where are the Spider Monster?"

They had already walked onto the road outside, but they still did not see a single Spider Monster. What they saw and heard were all ruins, even more so than the scene after the earthquake.

"Could it be that this place was once bombarded by a powerful bomb? Then how did I survive?"

At this moment, Faang Xuan's mind was filled with questions. However, he could not find anyone to answer, "Forget it. Let's wait until there are passing vehicles. We'll take them back to the city first."

Thus, a muddy person whose entire body was covered in black paint squatted by the roadside, waiting for the passing cars.

He waited from night to morning, then from morning to afternoon. His stomach had started to growl non-stop, but there was no passing car for him to intercept.

"Damn it, it's really unlucky. Why is there not a single car?"

Faang Xuan cursed in a low voice, but he did not know that this road had been blocked long ago. If he wanted to pass through this road, he could only take a detour. Not to mention waiting for a day, even if he waited for a year and a half, he would not be able to wait until a car passed by.

Although Faang Xuan was thick-skinned, he was too embarrassed to walk on the road. He rubbed his dry stomach and decided to wait for the night. If there were no cars passing by, he would just run back to the city. It was only a few hours' journey.

With his physical fitness, there should not be any problems. As the King of Assassins, he had already traveled a long distance. Why would he care about such a small distance?

Gugugu...

His stomach let out another howl. Faang Xuan's hand naturally reached for his stomach, and a helpless smile appeared on his face, "If only I had a cigarette now, how good would that be?"

When his stomach was rumbling with hunger, the first thing Faang Xuan thought of was not to eat, but to smoke a cigarette. This kind of feeling, other than years of old smoking cigarettes, no one else could understand.

One day was not a long time, but it was extremely long for Faang Xuan. In this kind of days where there was no smoke, no food, and no drinking water, time was especially unbearable.

Faang Xuan counted the time on his fingers almost every second.

Until now, he did not expect to encounter a car that passed by. With his brain, he finally understood. In front of him... There must be something that he did not know about on the way out of the city. Otherwise, although the road was still desolate, there was no lack of people on it. It was impossible for there to be no one, not even a car.

"I hate the sun."

Looking at the half sun that should have landed on the horizon, but was unwilling to land, Faang Xuan spat at the sky.

He could not wait. Although the sky was not completely dark yet, he could not wait any longer. Faang Xuan decided not to wait any longer. He could barely endure the hunger. However, his throat, which felt like it was on fire, and his lips that had no moisture at all... It made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

It was really impossible for a person not to drink water...

With a sigh, Faang Xuan's legs moved quickly. He stepped onto the road like a gust of wind and sped towards the direction of the city.

His speed wasn't the fastest because he had to control the flow of water in his body. Even so, his speed exceeded the speed of the Olympic champion's 100m sprint. Moreover, he didn't slow down at all even after running for so long.

The wind whistled past his ears and eyes. It was an itchy feeling that stimulated his nerves. He couldn't help but feel excited. The only flaw was that he couldn't feel any traces of the wind slipping on his skin.

Because his entire body was covered in a thick layer of mud. After a night of dry wind, from afar, he looked like he was wearing a black armor.

The rapid running and the great physical exercise brought about the loss of water on his body. The consumption of energy. Even though he ran all the way, closing his pores as much as possible to prevent the air from leaking out of his body... And thus allowing his body to bear the long distance running for a longer period of time... However... He couldn't bear the continuous running.

After running for two hours, he was panting like a cow. He tripped on a sharp protruding rock on the ground and lost his balance. A vicious dog pounced on him and fell to the ground.1

At this moment, his closed pores suddenly exploded. The force that he had been holding back was relaxed, and his skin, which was covered in mud armor, was covered in sweat. Even the layer of mud that was stuck to the skin was soaked, and it was slippery to the body. If he felt so uncomfortable, then so be it.

Gugugugugu...

Before he could feel the soreness and pain in his body, his stomach started to sing the stratagem of Empty City, which made Faang Xuan angry.

Rubbing his stomach that was covered in black mud, Faang Xuan sighed, "Can't you be quiet for a while? Do you think I'm willing to let you be empty? I also feel uncomfortable. "

The more Faang Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Why was he so hungry? How long had it been?

After resting for a while, Faang Xuan felt that he had recovered a lot of strength. He stood up again and continued the marathon that was tens of thousands of meters long.

The moon that had been unwilling to rise for a long time finally climbed up to the sky. And so, on a quiet road, a monster covered in mud that looked like a barbarian... Just like that, he was running wildly, replaying the scene of Kuafu chasing the sun (he was chasing the moon) in the legends.

Huffing and puffing continuously, another hour passed. This time, Faang Xuan did not hold his breath and did not let it out. He only felt that all the water in his body was about to flow out. The layer of muddy armor on his body was soaked in sweat. As his body shook, pieces of armor fell off from his body, one from the east and one from the west. All that was left was pitch-black filth.

The journey from the downtown area of New Nederland to the farm would take more than three hours. Faang Xuan, on the other hand, would arrive in less than three hours if he were to run freely. However, he had not eaten for half a month in a row, and his physical strength had been exhausted to the limit. He did not dare to let go and run, so his speed naturally decreased. Therefore, even though he had been running for more than three hours, the checkpoint that indicated returning to the city was still far away.

"Damn it, how long until we arrive?"

Faang Xuan cursed in a low voice. He could not take it anymore, as he had exhausted his stamina. If it were not for his physical fitness being a hundred times stronger than an ordinary person's, he would have made such a long journey after not eating or drinking for a week. He was afraid that he would have fallen long ago.

Knowing that his body couldn't take it anymore, Faang Xuan once again stopped in his tracks. He sat down on the ground and gasped for breath. He didn't care about the iron rule that he couldn't immediately sit down after running, that was only for ordinary people. The current Faang Xuan only wanted to recover some of his strength in the shortest time possible.

About fifteen minutes later, when he felt that he had rested enough, Faang Xuan, who was ready to stand up and continue running, suddenly saw two piercing flashes coming from the straight road. At this moment, he wanted to cry.

As the saying goes, one can walk a hundred miles and half ninety miles. Although Faang Xuan was not far away from New Nederland City, however, the last part of the road was also when one's physical strength was exhausted to the extreme. At this time, to be able to run into a car, that kind of feeling... It was simply indescribable.

Ignoring the shock of the world, Faang Xuan jumped onto the road and saw it. He waved his hands and legs in an exaggerated manner, hoping to attract the car to come over as soon as possible.

As the saying went, a horse would die if it saw a mountain. When it saw the car that was not far away, it was already seven or eight minutes later when it ran in front of him.

The car that was flashing was getting closer and closer. Faang Xuan suddenly frowned. It was actually a patrol car.

A Big Chenoji with the insignia of a patrol car was driving over at lightning speed. And from the looks of it, it had already discovered Faang Xuan.

This place was indeed not far from the city, and this Big Chenoi was the nearest inspection station. It had been sent out to patrol the area to see if there were any survivors of the explosion.
