The body that the hunter had just controlled immediately turned into a raging fireball. The weird flames surged out of his internal organs and even his cells. The pouring rain could not extinguish them at all.

In the raging flames, he screamed like a monster from a different planet. His entire body was like an elastic rubber that was sometimes lengthened, sometimes grew horizontally, and sometimes expanded into a ball. In the end, he exploded. The black object that looked like a mist, a chimney, and a flame crawled out again and looked for a new ‘carrier’ like a viper in the void.

Li Yao was going to blow out a second cluster of flames and burn the hunter’s soul to ashes, when he felt excruciating pain deep inside his brain, as if every one of his brain cells was being torn apart. It was so painful that he could barely stand straight and almost fell off the tank. He could only lie on the ground and breathe heavily.

It was obvious that he had just awakened and was not able to control the power of flames inside his body yet. He was already on the verge of being burnt out. If he tried to activate the technique by force, it was possible that the mitochondria factory inside his cells would go out of control, and he would be burnt to ash.

Thankfully, they had backup plans.

Maybe it was his strongest backup plan.

“Uncle Hui!”

Li Yao screamed at the top of his lungs.

Hu!

The window of the tank exploded. A cluster of purple flames that seemed to be alive rushed out and hit the black mist that represented the soul of the hunter. The purple flames were wreathed in black mist and tied up another viper like a viper. It even cut the ‘snake’ that represented the hunter into five pieces. While squeaking, it fled to the coach in front of it.

It seemed that the hunter’s soul had been seriously damaged. It would take a long time for him to be reborn even if he could find a new carrier.

However, right at this moment, a strange explosion came from the front of the train. A ball of lightning soared into the sky from the front of the train. Then, the train suddenly slowed down. The wheels in front of the train even burst forth with a series of dazzling sparks. From the looks of it, it wouldn’t be long before the train came to a complete stop.

This place, on the other hand, was not a hill or a high platform, but a rarely-seen flatland among the continuous mountains.

The train would pass through a small station here, so the elevated platform was gradually lowered, and the train tracks were parallel to the ground.

He could vaguely see that dozens of headlights were shining near the station, which looked like the eyes of dozens of hungry wolves.

With such bad weather and the fact that the train was not going to stop here, it was obvious that it was not an engineering vehicle but an ambush of the Heaven’s Origin Sector!

“Li Yao—”

The grey mist lady kicked a puppet out of the car and landed beside Li Yao and Uncle Hui like a dry leaf. “Your driving skills are not bad. Take the ghost cat and Zhang Daniu and leave first. The brain structure of the ghost cat is different from that of an ordinary person. Her brainwaves are extremely powerful and are equivalent to a special ‘antenna’ and ‘server’. As long as you bring her along, you will not lose contact with the satellite navigation system no matter how bad the weather is. This place is not far from the border. The ghost cat knows where to pick you up. As long as you escape, a large team of people will naturally pick you up.”

“Sparda, Uncle Hui, and I will defend this place. Rest assured!”

While the grey mist lady was talking, her eyes had turned into a gray color where one could not tell her pupils and the whites of her eyes. Thick grey mist was spurting out of her eyes, ears, nose, and even her pores. Very soon, the three coaches in front of and behind them were enveloped in the grey mist. Li Yao and his companions’ senses were not affected much, but the enemy seemed to be caught in a weird state where all their senses were cut off. They were all scratching crazily, not knowing where they were going or where they were going. One moment of carelessness, and they would slip and fall off the moving train.

The situation was critical. There was no time to hesitate. Li Yao took a silver spray can from Uncle Hui’s hands and sprayed a large amount of cold green gas on his wounds. The pain was finally relieved. He nodded at the Grey Mist Lady and the other two before he fell into the carriage like a bat.

BAM BAM BAM BAM!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

From time to time, intense sounds of fighting and explosions could be heard coming from the roof of the train. In fact, the entire roof of the train was already riddled with holes. The storm could pour in unscrupulously and turn the train into an aquarium.

Thankfully, the Ark Foundation had replaced Zhang Daniu with an engineering special computer with a very high defense index. He was not scared that it would be damaged in such a harsh environment. However, after such a heated battle, it was obvious that Zhang Daniu could not write anymore. He screamed and crawled into the arms of the ghost cat, trying to bury his head deep inside.

“Let’s go!”

Li Yao ruthlessly kicked the ass of this guy. He pulled open the partition between the two coaches. In front of him was a jet-black, shining off-road vehicle. It was as wide as two ordinary sedans, and its extremely domineering tires seemed to be filled with teeth. Even if it had not been started, it still gave off a feeling of overwhelming strength.

Li Yao checked the quick detaching device that the grey mist lady had set up for the off-road vehicle. He jumped on the vehicle and started the engine. A lion-like roar pierced through his eardrums all the way to his heart and lungs, opening up every cell in his body, giving him the confidence that he could charge through the most furious mudslide.

The ghost cat pushed Zhang Daniu in and closed the door heavily.

“Are you ready?”

Li Yao didn’t even turn his head. “Today is an emergency. We might need to drive faster.”

“What—”

Zhang Dapao’s face turned from pale to green, and then from green to pale, as if a cabbage had slapped his face.

Before he realized what was going on, Li Yao had already put on the gear and stepped on the gas.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

His blood seemed to have turned into fuel and filled every crevice of the off-road vehicle. The iron beast was consumed by his soaring fighting will and was about to burst into flames in the middle of the thunderstorm!

The front of the train was already aimed at the side door of the train. The moment he started the engine, the door slid open slowly.

However, there were no stops here. Not only was the train still travelling at a speed of dozens of kilometers per hour, it was also three to five meters from the ground.

Of course, it would be too late to break away from the train station. The iron nail would be surrounded by the enemy and completely locked.

Li Yao roared like an animal. The four wheels of the off-road vehicle turned into wind-fire wheels that were wreathed in white smoke, almost scraping four holes on the bottom of the train. When the power was accumulated to the limit and the speed of the train was further reduced, the seal that bound the off-road vehicle was finally torn to pieces. The steel beast accelerated to its maximum speed in almost 0.1 seconds, as if it had grown wings, and flew out of the moving train.

At that moment, time seemed to have frozen.

But Zhang Daniu’s screams were as prolonged as ever.

The off-road vehicle drew a perfect curve in the wind, rain, and thunder and crashed into the muddy ground dozens of meters away.

The ground that had been softened by the rain was an excellent cushion. Even so, the tires, the chassis, and the anti-shock system were still moaning in pain because of the overwhelming load. They were about to fall over because of the inertia. Li Yao did not even blink his eyes. After a series of rapid operations, the off-road vehicle drove diagonally with the two tires on the right side for a long distance before it straightened up again.

The dozens of headlights around the train station moved. Like hungry wolves, they changed their tactics and lunged at their prey.

“Tell me the terrain nearby and the weather!”

Li Yao looked far into the distance, trying to find a highway parallel to the railway, or a terrain that was slightly gentler between the mountains, but as expected, he failed. Calculating the time, it should have been noon, but the rain-filled world was as dark as midnight. The raindrops hitting the windows of the train could not be described as ‘raindrops’. They were ‘raindrops’ the size of hailstones.

Visibility in the front, back, left, and right was no higher than fifty meters. How could they find the highway? Even if they did, it was possible that it had been cut off by the flood or blocked by vehicles.

Thankfully, they still had the ‘Ghost Cat’, a ‘human satellite navigation system’ that wouldn’t malfunction under most circumstances.

“We are here, near the station named ‘Spiritual Stream’.

Carrying a weird-looking computer, Ghost Cat crawled to the front row. Despite the pale face caused by the bumpy ride, he pointed at the satellite map for Li Yao to see. “The closest highway to us is this—Highway 370. But part of the highway was cut off by the flood two hours ago. Even with our off-road performance, we won’t be able to pass through it. And here, here, and here. These are the main roads. There is a possibility of mudslides. Chances are that they have already been blocked!”

“Understood. We seem to be locked in a small basin between mountains, and the main roads leading to and from the basin are blocked, aren’t they?”

While Li Yao was rushing forward and fighting against the muddy ground, he looked at the map provided by the ghost cat and suddenly noticed a dotted line. “What is this road? It seems that we can get out of here.”

“Well…”

The ghost cat took a closer look. “It seems to be a village road that has been abandoned for many years. Decades ago, it was the only way in and out of this area. But because it was built next to the biggest river nearby, ‘Spiritual Stream’, and because it was built on the mountain, it has a lot of twists and turns. It is very dangerous. Many accidents have happened in the past. Countless vehicles have directly fallen into the Spiritual Stream from the village road. Since the national highway and highway have been repaired, it has been abandoned. Now that it has been in disrepair for a long time, the torrential rain will definitely cause the water level of the Spiritual Stream to soar. Mudslides can rush down the river at any time, making it even more dangerous!”

“The twists and turns… right?”

Li Yao grinned. His smile was confident and even crazy.
