Chapter 1453 - 1453 The grim situation (1)
1453 The grim situation (1)
The sun was just right, and the warm wind was slightly tipsy. It was a good time to play.
In a green field, four motorcycles slowly drove along the narrow Village Road, attracting the attention of the villagers who were farming.
The nearby villagers had long been used to these travel-worn foreigners riding motorcycles around, so they only took a glance and ignored them.
The four motorcycles did not seem to have any intention of stopping. After crossing the ancient stone bridge in front of the village, they headed toward the nearby mountain.
However, just as the motorcycles were about to turn into the road by the cliff, several off-road vehicles suddenly appeared and blocked the road from both front and back.
At the same time, a large number of armed figures suddenly appeared on the cliff and in the fields beside it. They surrounded the motorcyclist.
The sound of brakes, shouts, and curses suddenly became one.
The villagers looked at this scene in a daze. They didn’t know what was going on. Just as they were about to run over to watch, intense gunfire that sounded like firecrackers came from the road. In the middle of it, there were also violent explosions and billowing smoke.
The villagers who had intended to watch the commotion were shocked. They all stopped in their tracks and tried to look for a position with a better view to watch the gunfight on the road from a distance.
Although the distance was too far and the villagers could not see the exact situation, they could tell from the gunshots that the two sides were fighting in full swing!
The battle lasted for a few minutes before it suddenly quieted down, as if nothing had happened.
After confirming that the battle was over, the villagers who could not hold back their curiosity carefully moved closer and saw a shocking scene.
The burning and dismembered cars and firearms, the wounded lying in blood, the damaged roads, and the dazzling bullet shells everywhere.
This kind of scene would only appear in movies in the past, but now it was really happening in front of the villagers!
Seeing this shocking scene, the villagers quickly called the police. At the same time, they witnessed the four motorcycles cross the mountains and quickly disappear into the dense forest.
To the villagers, this might perhaps be a Grand scene that they could only witness once in their lifetime. However, to Tang Zhen’s group, it was merely the beginning of a new round of battle.
It was strange to say that as long as Tang Zhen’s group left behind a trace, they would be discovered by the natives and would be followed.
Ever since they escaped the ambush outside the village, the four of them had been constantly encountering planes, cars, motorcycles, and a large number of interceptors. Sometimes, they would even exchange fire with varying intensity.
These natives were like maggots in their bones, chasing after them and unable to get rid of them no matter what.
However, Tang Zhen’s group did not dare to stop. This was because they would encounter the scene of tens of thousands of people searching together if their movement speed was even the slightest bit slower.
When faced with such a tactic of using a sea of people, Tang Zhen and the others might be completely trapped once they fell into the encirclement!
Many ants could bite an elephant to death. Tang Zhen and the others had already deeply experienced this kind of helpless feeling during their journey.
When a group of natives with strength equivalent to rank 3 cultivators appeared, Tang Zhen finally realized why he had repeatedly exposed his whereabouts. It turned out that this group of people had cooperated with ordinary people and almost caused him to fail miserably in a ditch.
Tang Zhen and the others had long realized this point and had not let their guard down. After setting up a trap to lead them into an ambush, they killed more than ten members of The Guardian family in one go.
Without the Guardian’s interception, the tracking of ordinary people could basically be ignored. Tang Zhen and the rest would at most waste some time before they could successfully escape.
After travelling through the deep mountains and old forests for close to ten days, and after several fierce battles, Tang Zhen’s group of four finally arrived at the location of the third rune sign.
……
This was also a scenic spot. The mountain forest was deep and the ancient temple was hidden in it. Usually, many tourists came here for sightseeing.
However, just a few days ago, this place had stopped receiving tourists. Any unrelated people were ordered to go down the mountain, and the nearby area was strictly blocked by the military and police, not allowing anyone to approach easily.
Some of the villagers even saw armored vehicles and mortars hidden in the valley. They could only be discovered when they got close.
In a corner that no one could see, there were many miniature cameras, snipers, and groups of fully armed patrol members!
In the face of a strong enemy like Tang Zhen, The Guardian family finally decided to seek help from the official forces after a fierce debate. They wanted them to participate in the camp of protecting the rune sign.
Although they had to pay a certain price and even share the magical power of the rune sign, at the very least, they could ensure that the rune sign would not fall into the hands of the devil.
The intervention of the government’s forces had greatly increased the strength of the Guardians. They, who possessed supernatural powers, had already become the biggest threat to Tang Zhen’s group of four!
From the information that they had gathered earlier, they could confirm that Tang Zhen’s group of four should have already arrived here. Perhaps, they were secretly observing and looking for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
At this moment, all the guards were on high alert, waiting for the battle to begin.
……
On a building not far from the scenic Area, Tang Zhen slowly retracted his gaze.
After a long journey, they finally arrived at their destination, but the other party’s impenetrable defense made him feel slightly troubled.
With the items he had in his storage equipment, he could definitely break through the other party’s blockade, but what should he do next?
They still had to travel the mountains and waded the seas to snatch the fourth rune sign, search for the unknown treasure, and deal with the Guardian’s crazy pursuit!
During this process, they were like beasts rolling in a pool of asphalt. The more they struggled, the more they were contaminated and the deeper they sank.
This feeling of being the enemy of the whole world was terrible. It was like walking on a tightrope between a cliff with the whistling mountain wind. If you were not careful, you would fall and be smashed into pieces.
As for the reason why their cultivation base was suppressed, Tang Zhen had already found the answer. It turned out that during the teleportation process, a trace of powerful force attached itself to their bodies. It was the existence of this force that forcefully suppressed the cultivation base of the four people to below the Lord-tier.
It was said that this kind of power would gradually disappear with the passage of time. However, until now, this trace of power did not show any signs of weakening. On the contrary, it was being continuously stabilized to ensure that it could continue to suppress the cultivation of Tang Zhen and the other three.
This was the evil intent of this world, or perhaps it was the deliberate act of the treasure’s owner, to punish these outsiders who had tried to lay their hands on the treasure. This was the reason why invisible world Energy was constantly seeping into the Four’s bodies.
Tang Zhen had once tried to remove this kind of suppression. However, with the strength of a rank 5 cultivator, it was simply wishful thinking to break the seal set by at least a sector Lord!
In order to ensure his own safety and at the same time not to let his previous efforts go to waste, Tang Zhen must think of a way to change this unfavorable situation.
In reality, Tang Zhen wasn’t the only one thinking about this question. Yu Heng and the other two had already had enough of this series of tortures. One had to know that although they were all law Kings, the number of battles they had experienced in their lives could be counted with one’s fingers.
This kind of situation where one’s cultivation base was suppressed after infiltrating the other world and they were chased by countless natives was something they would never have imagined in the past!
“Sir Tang Zhen, what do you think we should do now?”
Yu Heng took a deep breath and turned to ask Tang Zhen. There was an obvious trace of worry on his face.
