C597 Trap
Things have been like this, all we can do is keep chasing!
When they reached the north side of the forest, they saw a pile of burnt ruins, and some broken people were left there forever.
Shadow's expression was very bad.
These were all his brothers in the martial arts world!
This time, they risked their lives to help him, not because they had any requests.
Now that they had died because of their friendship, they had fallen to their deaths, but what had they become? He was a villain who had harmed his brothers in the Jianghu!
The woman in black looked at the shadow and sighed. "Victory and death are for the sake of justice. They have been wandering the Pugilistic World for their entire lives. How many things have they really done for the country and the people? Now, they have died for justice, for the people of the world. Even if you want to be benevolent, you don't have to worry too much about it."
The shadow smiled bitterly and sighed, "That would be best."
Her tone made the corners of the woman's eyes twitch.
She immediately turned around and stared at Shadow's face.
Shadow was stunned for a moment and hurriedly smiled bitterly.
He knew that he had misspoken.
"Forget it, quickly chase after him!"
The army entered the deep mountains.
It was as if they had been swallowed.
Not to mention a few thousand people, even if there were tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people, they would not be able to make a single splash if they were thrown here.
A day passed just like that.
The black-robed woman and the shadow knew that they could not catch up to the other party now, but the other party could not run too far either.
According to the information provided by the tracking expert, they would only be able to measure the distance for six hours. It would not be too long. If the expert were to shuttle through the forest and chase after them quickly, they would still be able to catch up.
But...
Experts would also be tired!
After Leng Yueling and the rest came out, they had eaten their fill and slept again, but they did not enjoy this kind of treatment.
They had been preparing for the whole day yesterday, and then the battle for the entire night did not stop for a moment.
Now, they went out to chase after them, and they did not even have a moment to rest.
Even the iron man couldn't take it anymore.
Some people naturally started to fall behind.
Even if they sent someone to chase after them...
However, they would still have to face the army of over a hundred women. Putting aside the fact that they had immortal artifacts, just their strength alone was not something that could be easily defeated.
If they rashly chased after them, the losses would be even greater.
Thus, the black-robed woman fell into a dilemma.
As for her dilemma, there was no one else who could give her encouragement.
Everyone would only look at her and wait for her orders.
Just as she was in a dilemma.
One of the rebel soldiers in front of her couldn't open his eyes.
When he walked, he was also frivolous.
He swayed left and right, as if he would collapse at any moment.
A soldier by the side saw this and hurriedly came over to support him. He said softly, "Hold on for a while longer. It will be fine when we catch him."
"Yes, I know, but... but when can I rest for a while? I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on any longer."
"Persist for a while more. We have already done so many things. We only need to show off for the last time. Persist!"
As he spoke, he took out a small package from his pocket.
Inside was a dried plum.
He handed over a plum and said, "Eat one, it will help you regain some energy."
"Oh..."
That person took it. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he felt a burst of salty acid. It stimulated the flow of his saliva. However, he was hungry and thirsty now, so he did not secrete much of his saliva. It was just that his face was distorted by the sourness.
As expected, he also became a little more energetic.
But... the effect was really limited.
At least his eyes, which had just opened wide, were about to close again in a moment.
At that moment, he leaned sideways and almost fell down. Luckily, he held onto a tree.
Just as he was rejoicing, he heard a hissing sound.
He looked around and saw nothing strange.
He felt that it might be because he was too tired and his ears were ringing.
But in an instant, he saw a white and black smoke coming out of the tree.
Then, he smelled an extremely pungent smell.
"This is..."
He turned his head to look.
At this moment...
Boom!!
A huge explosion directly blasted him into midair.
Trees exploded, and sand and stones flew everywhere.
The area was soon engulfed in raging flames.
All the pursuing soldiers were shocked.
They looked in that direction in horror.
"An immortal magical artifact? They are nearby? "
Shadow was shocked and immediately sent people to look for them.
The black-robed woman immediately called out to him.
"Don't move! Everyone, don't move! Pass down the order, no one move!"
Everyone stopped moving.
The black-robed woman was panting heavily.
She even used her sight to look around carefully.
She realized that this was a trap!
Back in the great hall, she had seen the entire process of the female army using the Terraflame up close.
That thing was very easy to operate.
It was to directly use a fire piston to burn the opening of the jar. After smoking for a while, throw it out directly, and it would explode!
This also meant that.
If this thing was placed in a certain place, then it would be turned into a trap.
As long as someone triggered the trap and let the fire piston touch the inlet...
Actually, there was no need for people to stand there, this thing could also explode!
The previous explosion must have been this kind of trap.
There was simply no need for them to leave someone behind to guard the rear.
These people were extremely tired.
Any trap was easy to fall into.
Meanwhile, this type of immortal magical artifact had the greatest impact on the hearts of people!
That was why the black-robed woman couldn't reveal her suspicions.
Once she did.
Who else would dare to walk forward?!
But if he didn't say it...
Who knew how many of these traps the other party had set up?
If it wasn't for the fact that the others were at the front and he had touched the traps...
The black-robed woman felt a chill run down her spine.
She wasn't afraid of death.
But... this kind of death, this kind of death where a corpse was blasted into countless pieces, she still couldn't accept it.
However, even if she didn't take the initiative to say it, the rebel soldiers and people from the pugilistic world would still be able to see it.
Especially those people from the Jianghu.
They had experienced too many mutual deception in the martial arts world, so they knew nothing about traps like this.
To put it bluntly.
This was an ordinary trap, just a place where the power of the trap was exerted. It was not a sharp thorn, a saber, or a giant tree, but an immortal magical artifact.
That was why they understood.
Moreover, they determined that there was this type of trap in the vicinity.
At the same time, they started to feel afraid.
This thing was too scary!
No one wanted to die without knowing why.
Moreover, he was killed by an immortal magical artifact, right... Even his soul was destroyed? At that time, he wouldn't even have the chance to reincarnate? He wouldn't even be able to become a wandering ghost?
This was too terrifying!
Who wouldn't be afraid?
Whether it was those who walked the martial arts world or those in the army, they actually believed in ghosts and gods more than the common people!
This was actually very easy to understand.
People in the martial arts world lived on the edge of blades every day, but those who were unlucky would have died long ago!
Those who were able to live until now had experienced the baptism of luck countless times.
In order to be safe and steady, one could not only rely on one's own strength. Even those famous top masters in the martial arts world would often fail miserably in an easy task.
When faced with such people, people would often say that they "offended too many years old," or "offended gods." Otherwise, why would a person's luck be so bad?
In the army, although everyone did not believe in the gods on the surface, the imperial court did not allow it either.
However...
In a battle of tens of thousands of soldiers, you are not stronger than others, but you can live longer than others. Why is that? Naturally, it was luck. Being cautious on the battlefield was useless.
Moreover, they had seen too many strange things, including strange ways of dying.
For example, they had clearly withdrawn their troops, but a single person had suffered a small injury. For example, his finger had been cut, and in the end, those who had broken arms and legs around him were fine. They had all survived, but he had died of illness!
This was very strange.
There were even some who had even suffered a few rounds of rain of arrows. A group of people had all withstood it. In the end, when they returned to camp to rest, an arrow came out of nowhere. The thick cowhide tent, which was originally impossible to pass through, was directly pierced through. Then, it happened to be a coincidence. With the last bit of strength, it directly pierced into a person's eyes.
However, it was fine to change places, but it was the eye!
This kind of thing, they had seen it many times!
The more they saw this kind of thing, the more they felt that there seemed to be something in this unseen world. It was an existence that could not be explained, could not be seen, and could not be seen. It was an existence that influenced their own life and death!
Hence, they were afraid.1
At the same time.
At a place forty miles away from them, Leng Yueling was leading a group of people to rest.
A group of people made food out of fire.
Leng Yueling seemed to be so relaxed and casual.
However, the others all looked nervous.
Especially after they had slept earlier, they were almost surrounded by enemies. How could they dare to be so relaxed now?
Some people even asked Leng Yueling directly, could they really be so relaxed? Shouldn't they be rushing?
Leng Yueling lightly smiled and said, "Didn't we leave behind an earth fire trap previously? Just based on that, they would not leave without eight hours."
