Chapter 278: 246. This world is a dark humor_2
"Understood!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Yet many were not very confident.
Our leader himself couldn't kill the opponent earlier, can we really take down this Great Xia person?
*
Another corner of the icefield.
The Arctic Expedition Team organized by the Dakot Group encountered a massive crisis.
Jackson, like a beast, ran franticly on all fours in the endless snowy plains.
A layer of black hair grew over his skin, making his face completely unrecognizable.
This was precisely his awakened superpower—Beast Form.
"Caw!"
The crow he raised stood on his back, its cry carrying a sense of urgency.
This crow's sense of hearing was extraordinarily sharp, it heard a different sound.
Jackson glanced back, increasing his running speed a bit more.
He recalled the nightmare-like experience that had just occurred, and cursed fiercely: "Damn Carmenians!"
Just half an hour ago.
The Dakot Expedition Team happened to encounter a group of superpower users organized by the Carmenia Federation.
Captain Arnold, taking into account their shared Caucasian race, went over to greet the Carmenians, and shared his gathered intel in a friendly manner.
The team then found a spot nearby to rest for a while.
However.
The unexpected happened.
The Carmenians suddenly launched an attack on the expedition team.
Including Arnold, the majority of the team members were killed on the spot.
Jackson relied on his Beast Form superpower, realizing the danger at the onset of the attack, and fled without hesitation.
Otherwise, he'd likely have been caught off guard and killed by the Carmenians.
"Whew!"
Jackson took a few heavy breaths, silently guessing the Carmenians' motive for such action.
"Deceitful Artifact!
"Probably because of a Deceitful Artifact!
"These bizarre things thrive on flesh and blood, the Carmenians must have brought along a number of deceitful artifacts.
"This group of scoundrels aimed to feed the deceitful artifacts, and the expedition team unwittingly presented themselves, giving the Carmenians reason to slaughter us mercilessly."
Jackson then thought of something utterly absurd.
"Captain Arnold always believed that the Caucasian world must unite to resist the rise of the Yellow race, otherwise, they would become Canglan Star's leaders.
"The captain also believed firmly that only the Carmenia Federation could lead the Caucasian world and prevent them from becoming second-class citizens.
"I suppose Arnold deeply regretted trusting the Carmenians at that fatal moment?"
Just then.
Jackson suddenly heard a very faint sound of wind.
He instinctively leapt high up, his hair instantly becoming like steel needles.
"Bang!"
A soft sound was heard.
Several sharp ice shards shot violently toward Jackson.
At that instant.
Jackson seemed to have lost his bones, his body became a soft mass, stretching over three meters long, twisting into a bizarre shape.
The ice shards brushed by.
Only one shard grazed his body, leaving a bloody gash, the cold Qi erupted, freezing a large chunk of flesh badly.
The other ice shards missed completely.
Using his superpower, he successfully avoided a deadly strike.
Then.
Jackson landed on the snow, gasping in pain, his face nearly contorted.
But he couldn't afford to treat his injury.
Because this was a matter of life and death.
Jackson roared ferociously, desperately squeezing out his body's potential, amazingly turning his hair to needles again.
His speed increased by thirty percent, turning into an afterimage, rushing forward.
Run!
If you don't want to die, keep running till you drop!
However, there's no free lunch in the world, such exhaustion could not come without a price, this strained potential would likely reduce his lifespan by at least two years.
"Caw!"
The crow cried again.
It was alerting that the trailing enemies had fallen back a bit.
Jackson subtly relaxed.
But after five minutes.
"Caw!"
The crow cried again.
The enemies had caught up again.
Jackson realized another troubling matter, couldn't help but murmur: "Damn it!"
The wound was initially on his back, not significantly affecting his running.
But things had changed, a thread of cold Qi seeped into one of his legs, rendering it slightly stiff, hampering his speed.
Jackson had no choice, he roared again, once more stimulating his potential.
The cold Qi subsided.
His running speed resumed.
Half an hour passed.
Jackson had been running wildly for over 200 kilometers, exhausting himself over 10 times, but still he couldn't shake off his enemy.
He even suspected that the enemy intended to wear him down to his limits like this, then strike to kill him.
The patience shown by the enemy filled him with fear indeed.
"Bang!"
Jackson leaped over a crevasse, landing heavily on the snow.
Due to severe physical exhaustion, his control over his power diminished, resulting in a much louder landing noise.
A crow cawed again, and its voice was extremely urgent.
Danger was approaching.
Fear covered Jackson's face.
He had a strong premonition that the enemy understood his tactics and was about to make a real move.
Even if he used the secret technique to stimulate his potential again, he feared it would be difficult to escape this calamity.
Just then.
Jackson suddenly sensed a slight tremor coming from the ice ahead.
At the same time.
A terrifying supernatural aura swept in.
Jackson merely sensed it and felt his scalp tingling.
His steps involuntarily halted, and he looked ahead in shock and doubt.
So strong!
Could it be a monster?
Jackson fell into deep despair.
With a monster in front and an enemy behind, is there no way to survive?
The next moment.
A booming voice echoed through the cold wind: "This is the Great Xia Arctic Expedition Team, who are you?"
Jackson was stunned for a moment, then an idea suddenly occurred to him.
He immediately shouted with all his might: "Honorable Superpower Users of Great Xia, I am willing to serve Great Xia!"
Just as the words fell.
"Woo~"
A shrill wail rose from behind.
The Carmenians at his back decisively launched an attack.
At the same time.
"Woo!"
A piercing screech was heard.
A green shadow, like lightning, shot through the blizzard.
"Ah~"
Jackson heard a scream from behind.
He couldn't help but freeze for a moment.
Was the enemy killed?
This guess was soon confirmed.
After a dozen seconds.
Jackson saw the enemy's corpse.
A long spear, entirely green, pierced through a sturdy man's head, pinning him to the ice.
The head had completely burst like a watermelon, with many green tendrils emerging from the surface of the corpse; the scene was somewhat horrifying.
He gazed at the corpse, feeling an unreal sensation: "The Carmenians who had me so desperately chased like a dog were so easily killed by the Great Xia people?"
Jackson also felt an indescribable subtlety in his heart.
The Captain hoped to lead the Western Hemisphere against Great Xia, defending the glory of the white race, but ended up killed by the Carmenians.
I was hunted by the Carmenians, but in the end, the Great Xia people saved me.
This world is simply a dark comedy.
Beside him, a Great Xia person glanced at the corpse, mumbling, "This guy seems to be Gulite, one of the top ten Spiritual Ability Users in Carmenia Federation."
Jackson was taken aback: "Ice Prince Gulite?"
The Great Xia person sneered: "What bullshit Ice Prince, just a weak chicken."
Jackson was silent.
On social media in the Western Hemisphere, the Ice Prince is considered one of the more notable superpower users.
He had watched many videos, and the Ice Prince's strength was indeed formidable; he had once frozen an entire ice lake with a full-strength attack.
He didn't think Gulite was a weak chicken.
But the Great Xia people had the right to say so.
Jackson looked at the other person and sincerely said, "Sir, thank you very much for saving me."
The Great Xia person waved his hand: "It wasn't me who saved you just now, it was Mr. Linjiang who acted."
Jackson was very curious: "Who is Mr. Linjiang?"
He thought, anyone who could easily kill the Ice Prince must be a famous powerhouse.
But Mr. Linjiang being unknown was a very strange affair.
The Great Xia person smiled: "You'll find out later."
He also introduced himself: "By the way, my name is Yu Wentai, and I want to confirm with you, do you really plan to serve Great Xia?"
Jackson nodded firmly: "Of course!"
The man paused for a moment and added: "You Great Xia people have a Slaughter Battleaxe; I want to be like the Slaughter Battleaxe and fiercely kill Carmenians."
Yu Wentai laughed: "You'll have the opportunity!"
Soon enough.
Jackson finally met Mr. Linjiang.
He looked up at the giant tree, utterly stunned.
