Chapter 224: The Doctor Escapes
Old An 【, the elder who had previously infiltrated Sang Chu’s Base ), had his subordinates gathered together, looking at the newly appointed big shot of New City, the Doctor, and asking, “Where did you get the news? Is it accurate?”
The Doctor pushed his glasses up and said with great confidence, “The news is naturally accurate. If it weren’t for the fact that we are all in the same boat now, why would I go to the trouble of informing you? They will be attacking soon. See if you want to wait for death or fight with me.”
A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks shouted loudly, “Of course, we’ll fight them! I haven’t even made a move against them, and they’re getting arrogant first. Tell me, how many people are there in total!”
A hint of cunning malice flashed in the Doctor’s eyes, but his face remained very calm as he said, “Currently, we know that their Base has added two Level Seven Supernatural Ability Users and three Level Six Supernatural Ability Users. We have no chance of winning in a head-on fight, but we can make them miss.”
“How do we do that?”
Upon hearing that Sang Chu’s Base had Level Seven Supernatural Ability Users, these people deflated, no longer as arrogant. Now, hearing the Doctor say there was a way, they all stared at him with wide eyes.
The Doctor said, “My idea is, if the green hills remain, there will be no lack of firewood. We definitely can’t win in a fight, but we can escape, and then unite with people from other Bases to attack Sang Chu. Old An hasn’t contacted us for so long, it’s likely he’s met with misfortune. Think about it, the Base that even Old An covets, can it be lacking in good things?”
“Stop talking nonsense, just tell us how to escape!”
The Doctor said, “I am a Mental Supernatural Ability User, I can help cover your retreat. You people, split into three waves and escape separately. Hai Shi has three exits. One is the seaside, but the sea is very unknown, and I’m sure none of you want to take the risk. Then there are only two paths left. The cliffs have many Mutated Plants, which are also very dangerous. So, the only real escape route is one.”
“Hai Shi is surrounded by the sea, with mountains behind it, and only one road leading outside. Once this road is blocked, we won’t be able to get out at all.”
The one who spoke was a burly man with a scar on his face. After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent. A hint of apprehension flashed in the Doctor’s eyes, but he still said with a composed expression:
“Therefore, we must be quick. We will split into three groups and rush towards the highway at the fastest speed. Those with lower Supernatural Ability levels will be at the front, don’t think about anything, just charge ahead. The second wave with intermediate Supernatural Ability levels will run, and the high-level ones will stay behind to block the road.”
The atmosphere instantly froze.
A bald, burly man said, “This is not practical. It’s better for everyone to escape separately. I am Earth Element, and I think Earth Element Supernatural Ability Users should head towards the mountains. If they chase us, we can drill underground to escape.”
He always felt that this Doctor was unreliable, so he thought heading towards the mountains was better. He was an Earth Element Supernatural Ability User, and if anything really happened, he could hide in the earth and at least save his life.
The Doctor said, “This is also good. I was just making a suggestion. Everyone should make a decision as soon as possible. If Mental Supernatural Ability Users trust me, stay with me to cover the retreat. In order for everyone to escape Hai Shi, we must work together. At least we have to disperse all their Power. If they pursue us as a united force, none of us will be able to escape.”
These people all had their own selfish motives. Honestly, no one wanted to run towards the highway. That road was bare, with nothing, not even cover. Once discovered, they would be live targets.
“I’ll go to the seaside. I’m a Water Element Supernatural Ability User, and fighting in water is not a problem.”
“I’ll go to the mountains.”
After the group finished discussing, only a few people with low Supernatural Ability levels were left looking at each other. However, they didn’t even have a chance to resist before their fate of escaping via the highway was decided.
The Doctor said, “Since everyone has decided, let’s leave quickly while we can. Those heading to the highway, the seaside, and the mountains will act separately. The Mental Supernatural Ability Users will stay with me, and we will head towards Sang Chu’s Base. We will hold them off for as long as we can, doing our best.”
“Okay, let’s split up!”
The group that split up acted very quickly. After the Supernatural Ability Users following the Doctor could no longer see anyone else, they stopped. “What do we do now?”
“Cover yourselves with your Supernatural Ability to reduce your presence, then split up and run towards the highway. We’ll rendezvous outside the city. Once everyone is gathered, we’ll go to Winter City.”
“Okay, we’ll listen to you.”
The five people, including the Doctor, took advantage of the fact that no one was around and covered themselves entirely with their Supernatural Ability, then ran at high speed towards the location of the highway.
However, when no one else was paying attention, the Doctor quietly slowed down and went around to a Mutated Plant.
Sliding down from the tree, he moved unimpeded. He obtained a red Seed from the Mutated Plant, swallowed it directly, and the Mutated Plant disappeared, replaced by a dark, winding path.
This path went through the Deep Sea and directly led to the outside world.
Sang Chu arrived on the highway with the Flying Demonic Beast squadron and saw a few Supernatural Ability Users escaping. Sang Chu frowned slightly.
Had the news leaked after all?
“Go down. Do not eat people. Capture all of them alive!”
‘Roar!’
A sky-shattering roar came, and the Demonic Beasts flew down, attacking those Supernatural Ability Users. The unstoppable Demonic Beasts instantly shattered the weak attacks of those Supernatural Ability Users.
Looking at the Supernatural Ability Users being trampled under the feet of the Demonic Beasts, Sang Chu, riding a Hellhound, looked down at them from mid-air. “Who told you to escape? Tell me, and I can spare your lives.”
Liu Zhe looked at Sang Chu and the strange-looking animals she brought with terror, trembling. “You, you keep your word!”
“You are not qualified to negotiate with me. Speak, and you might be able to keep a small life.”
Hearing Sang Chu’s cold voice, Wang Ji’an shouted, “Yes, the Doctor from New City. He said you were going to attack us and told us to run quickly.”
Sang Chu asked, “How many people were there in total, how many escaped, and why are only you few here?”
Liu Zhe replied, “I, there were over forty of us. The Doctor brought four Mental Supernatural Ability Users to cover our retreat, saying we should leave first. The remaining twenty-odd people, half went to the seaside, and half went to the mountains. They said the chances of escape were greater if they split up.”
That’s what they said, but Liu Zhe knew in his heart that the chances were slim. They were just pushed out as targets, and now, as expected, they were captured before they even reached the highway.
These people were flying to capture them. They had two legs, and they couldn’t outrun those who could fly, no matter how hard they ran!
Sang Chu was unaware of Liu Zhe’s complaints. She simply sent a message to Xi Rui and Sang Jing Wen: 【 Someone is heading your way, be careful. 】
