Chapter 140: Baby
Dirt road was difficult to drive on, causing all the vehicles to jolt violently along the way.
Going further south, there were no more ambushes from the wilderness people on the road.
Perhaps they thought the drone swarm was enough to stop the Autumn Hunting team, so they didn't make other preparations.
Or maybe they were shocked by Li Shutong's display of strength and decided to scrap any further plan.
Destroying dozens of drones in an instant, his move was indeed terrifying.
Qing Chen had yet to have a clear understanding of superhuman's power levels, but Xiao Gong and the others were more experienced and knew that this was the work of, at the very least, an A-level superhuman.
In the Autumn Hunting team, Xiao Gong had completed the neuron connection to the second batch of drones.
Of more than ten drones, half flew to the sides of the convoy while the other half flew farther around them.
Soon after, Xiao Gong reported the situation on the walkie-talkie, "Miss Yinuo, no enemy spotted on both sides, but 6 kilometers behind us, the wilderness men have assembled and don't seem to have given up pursuit."
Li Yinuo frowned, their opponent still chose to continue chasing even after knowing there was at least an A-level master among them? Could it be that an elder from the Firepit was also nearby?
She asked, "How far is the Kamidai Family's camp?"
"27 kilometers ahead," answered Xiao Gong.
"Tell Wang Bingxu that all the teams are to keep moving forward at full speed. We'll relax after passing the Kamidai Family's camp," Li Yinuo sneered.
After speaking, she looked at Nan Gengchen, "Baby, did I scare you?"
Nan Gengchen refused to talk.
Li Yinuo asked again, "My dear, are you still angry? I didn't mean to yell at you, it's just that the situation was very urgent just now."
Nan Gengchen huffed, his face flushed red, but he still didn't say a word.
He wasn't actually angry at Li Yinuo. To be honest, when he saw that she immediately brought him to safety the moment danger struck, he was no longer angry.
But the way Li Yinuo called him in front of Qing Chen…
It was no different than a public execution.
At this time, among the people present, Qin Yiyi and Li Yinuo did not know Qing Chen and Nan Gengchen knew each other, Li Shutong was the only one who knew.
Seeing Nan Gengchen's sullen expression, Li Yinuo lifted the hem of his shirt and asked full of concern, "Why does your face look so bad, did you get injured just now?!"
Nan Gengchen wanted to reach out to stop Li Yinuo from checking his body, but he was suppressed onto the cargo by the Beautiful and Mighty Young Miss, completely unable to resist as she took her time inspecting him.
Nan Gengchen's face was ashen.
When other people died three times, it was when their body ceased to function, when they were forgotten by everyone else, or other poetic nonsense.
But Nan Gengchen was different — just by counting social death alone, he had already died three times…
…
In the distance, everyone could already see the bonfire of the Kamidai Family camp.
People with good eyesight could even see Kamidai Josuke sitting with his daughter by the fire, talking to her.
Noticing the arrival of their convoy, everyone from the Kamidai Family came out, with some even taking out weapons and anti-drone rifles.
However, Xiao Gong had already contacted their intercom system in advance. "This is the Autumn Hunting team. To the camp ahead of us, please don't worry, there's no need to open fire, we are just passing by."
When they drove by the campsite, Li Yinuo smiled at Kamidai Josuke from the cargo of the truck, "Hello, have a good night."
The Autumn Hunting team brought along a huge amount of smoke and dust as they passed the Kamidai Family camp…
The fierce gale blew the tents to and fro, flapping wildly in the wind, and even the bonfire was momentarily extinguished.
The hem of the kimono worn by Kamidai Josuke was lifted up by the gust of wind, exposing a pair of hairy legs beneath…
"Baka!" Kamidai Josuke cursed out loud at the trail of the Autumn Hunting team.
Li Shutong said, "Let me translate this for you, he said: good night, be careful on the road."
Qing Chen, "…"
Kamidai Josuke couldn't understand why the Autumn Hunting team suddenly rushed their pace in the middle of the night.
A bodyguard in a black suit asked, "Could they have encountered some kind of danger?"
Kamidai Josuke tried to recall, "It shouldn't be, there's no new signs on damage on their cars."
"Then are they trying to find Qing Huai before us?" said Kamidai Ori.
Kamidai Josuke shook his head. "According to the information I just got, the field operations team from the Second Army made their leave just a few days ago. At our current speed, we should reach the outskirts of Forbidden Land No. 002 by tomorrow morning, while Qing Huai may not arrive until tomorrow afternoon. Just let Li Yinuo go ahead, we don't need to fight for time now."
Kamidai Ori suddenly grasped Kamidai Josuke hand and begged, "Dad, I heard that instead of being as outstanding as the rumors said, Chen Leyou is actually someone who's not quite right in the head. Once you've managed to convince Qing Huai, can you let me change partners with Kamidai Sorane? Let her marry Chen Leyou, and I'll marry Qing Huai!"
Kamidai Josuke thought it over. "It's not impossible, Qing Huai is indeed better than the youngsters from other corporations. However, in order to justifiably change the marriage contract, that trash from Prison 18 has to die first."
The next moment, someone spotted another convoy approaching from the north.
The LED headlights mounted on the off-road vehicles were extremely dazzling, and the roof of all the units on the front row were even equipped with blinding searchlights, making it impossible for the people in front to see who was coming.
A quick and vigorous bodyguard hurriedly ran to the side of the convoy, dodging the headlights before seeing a flag hung on the hood of the car.
On the flag, there was a faint image of a fire pit surrounded by a circle of stones, its flames flickering along with the constant sway of the vehicle.
The bodyguard yelled at once, "It's the wilderness men, the Firepit troops, everyone get in the car!"
Kamidai Josuke felt murderous right now.
No wonder Li Yinuo suddenly greeted him with a smile on her face, she was actually leading the Firepit troops to their campsite!
Had they been slow to run away, perhaps everyone from the Kamidai camp would die in the wilderness!
