Lord of War

Chapter 134 Death Canyon

Zero looked up and looked at Ataisha.

Atesha sat down next to Zero and took a few breaths before saying, "He walked away from the upper reaches of the Larsen River."

"Are you sure?" Zero asked, because the injury needed time to recover, and Zero could not do the reconnaissance work by himself. Artessa volunteered to take over the task, and it took more than two hours before the girl returned to the village.

Atessa raised her eyebrows and said, "I have been the best hunter in the village since I was 5 years old. Always!"

After she emphasized this point, she clicked on the map in front of Zero and said, "This guy is very cunning, as you said! He cleaned up almost all the traces of departure, including footprints, and all the physical traces that could be left, but he could not remove the smell. I have to say that the smell of you outsiders is so obvious that it is like a torch under the night, and I can smell it as soon as I smell it.

"Following his smell, I came to the upper reaches of the Ramason River, where there were traces of plants being cut down and mud marks of heavy objects being pushed into the water. I think he had no extra physical strength to clean up the traces when he got here, so he quickly chose to go into the water after cutting wood and making rafts. Atessa added.

Looking at the map, the Ramasen River is a winding river, and it is not until the area about kilometers downstream becomes flat. During this period, there are mostly rapids and dangerous beaches, and there is no place to land. In other words, if Parkland's killer goes into the water, he must have to go downstream to land again.

Zero points downstream and asks: "How long does it take to drift down the water from upstream to downstream?"

Atessa closed her eyes and appeared to be calculating in her heart. A moment later, she opened her eyes and said, "Three days."

"Three days?"

"This is the most conservative estimate, including that this guy did not flood the rapids or attack the giant toothfish and triangular crocodiles in the Larmasson River." Athesa sneered and said, "It's summer, and the mute beasts in the Ramason River are active. Even if they do not attack this alien, their violent movement in the water will cause various whirlpools and dark currents, which will greatly increase the time to pass through the Ramasan River. Three days is already the shortest time, and it can't be shorter!"

Look at the map from the Semitic village to the lower area of the Ramason River. Except for the waterway, there is only crossing the Death Canyon. Judging from the trend of the map, although the Death Canyon is not a straight line running through the northern area, the slight slope is much faster than the winding Ramason River.

"How long will it take us to reach the lower reaches of the Ramason River if we walk through the Death Canyon?" Zero asks again.

Atessa's eyes lit up: "It will arrive as soon as tomorrow afternoon. The death canyon is full of death flowers, and the strong wind in the valley blows endlessly every day, making death flowers fly all over the sky and become an insurmountable barrier. But during the day, the wind will stop from 12 a.m. to 3 a.m. We can swing through the countless vines criscrossing above the canyon without touching the death flowers. But..."

Looking at Zero, the black girl said with some regret, "Your injury will not be able to act until at least tomorrow, so we have to postpone our arrival for another day."

"That's too late." Ling stood up, took out another roll of poison bandages and wrapped his body around, and said, "We will leave tonight. Be sure to rush to the downstream area tomorrow evening, and then we can give him a surprise."

"Can you hold on? It takes at least two hours to pass through the canyon, that kind of exercise..." Athessa said skeptical.

Zero smiled and said, "As long as there is no fierce battle, there should be no problem."

He is not exaggerating. The estimate of the injury during the day is the recovered data of the previous serious injury as a reference. But Zero found that now his physical ability to recover seems to be a little stronger. The injury, which was basically recovered tomorrow morning, has now reached the minimum standard of action. According to this development, Zero believes that it is not impossible to recover from Hans-like injuries in a blink of an eye, and even the regeneration of the body.

Looking at Zero's insistence, Artessa did not object, so the two quickly packed up.

Zero woke up Moni and saw that it was not early. Naturally, he couldn't let Moni move by herself like going to the Death Canyon during the day. However, the zero situation only allows him to act, and he cannot use more than the fourth-order agile speed, otherwise it will cause the injury to worsen. So the task fell on Athessa. Fortunately, Athesa did not hate Moni, and the black girl did not object.

In this way, the three left the village and shuttled between the mountains at a constant speed of 150 kilometers per hour under the night. Although only the third-order agile speed is used, Zero looked at Athesha's easy-looking face and thought that the black girl would not be much lower than herself in terms of agility strengthening.

Agility strengthening is an auxiliary ability. Generally speaking, only the fighting department, and it is mainly women who strengthen this ability. Because women's physical strength is not as good as that of men, it is decided that they do not have the potential to strengthen their development to higher-level power. Therefore, they need more flexible skills and superior speed to make up for the lack of strength.

Even for high-level fighting warriors, they can choose a third-order degree of enhancement at most in this ability. After all, for them, flexibility is not as clean as the suppression of absolute power. Therefore, in the eyes of many people, they are not optimistic about agile enhancement, although once the lowest ability is developed to a higher level, it will also cause a qualitative effect. But agile reinforcement is a life-running skill in the eyes of many people, and people who choose to invest in this ability usually represent the weak.

Zero has no prejudice in this regard, and he is not good at the technology of elemental domains or fighting domains. Whether it is a sniper or a short-range gunfight, both need to distance themselves from their opponents. Therefore, for him, the cost performance of agile enhancement is the highest at present. For a gunman, distance is life!

Atesa, who grew up in the jungle, seems to have invested a lot of evolution in agile reinforcement. In addition to being a woman, this is more or less related to Athesha's living environment. After all, on Death Ridge, the speed is faster and the probability of life-saving is relatively higher.

Two hours later, the three came to the dividing line they saw in the morning on the downhill. From the time you step on the reddish-brown gravel land, you can clearly feel that the radiation intensity of this area is much stronger than that occupied by mutant plants. To this end, Moni has already put on protective clothing and started a radiation protection kit to resist the huge amount of radiation in this area.

But this is not enough. With Moni's physique and equipment, she can move in this area for about two or three hours at most. After this time, Moni will be infected, causing a series of genetic lesions, which will eventually lead to a complete collapse of the gene.

Therefore, Zero and Atessa do not stay. Only after a short rest before entering on the grass with green vegetation, he plunged towards the entrance of the Death Canyon with shadows.

Both of them understand that this is not only a race with the Parkland killer, but also a competition with time. The time left for them to pass through the valley is just right for the two people's skills. This also ensures that there will be no accidents on the way, and as long as they accidentally fall to the bottom of the valley, the mountains and flowers of death will become their final destination.

When I came to the entrance of the canyon, the wind stopped for about 1 minute, and the time was strictly calculated by Athessa. When the three people came to Gukou, they could just see the grand scene of blue magic flowers falling to the ground all over the sky. This scene is like falling in the sky, as beautiful as a dreamy fireworks. At the same time, it is also the deadliest fireworks.

Ataisha didn't say anything, and Moni, who was carrying her on her back, had been fixed with a bark rope made by Semitic people. Therefore, the black girl does not have to be distracted by Moni. She concentrates on choosing every place, carefully staying away from every place that may step on the flower of death, and keeps moving towards the mountain wall of the canyon. Zero followed her, and the landing point was as accurate as the repetition of Atedonsha's movements.

At night, the figure of the three of them kept approaching the mountain wall of the canyon. When it was close, Zero saw that the wall of the Death Canyon was charred, but there were many holes in the wall. These holes are full of thick-armed vines, intricately entangled in mid-air, and connected to the mountain wall on the other side of the canyon to form a dark green barrier.

These vines are the only plants in the canyon, and they are slightly different from ordinary vines. On the roots on the surface of the vine, there are round hard shells of different sizes, which looks like the mutagenic tissue produced by the human body after staying under the radiation source for a long time. The death flower on the ground of the canyon actually grows from the mutatic tissue of these plants. Death flowers are the product of the vines excreting toxins from their bodies, otherwise they cannot grow so densely in this area where the radiation source is so strong and scary.

I have no time to marvel at the wonder of natural creation and watch Atessa suddenly speed up. She almost ran on the sloping mountain wall with Moni on her back, and then reached the top and hung on a vine. Then, Athessa quickly staggered her hands and moved towards the depths of the canyon through the ubiquitous vines in midair.

Take a deep breath and suddenly raise the speed to the level of fourth-order agility. There were immediately signs of pain from all over the body. Zero's face was pale, but the hard will suppressed the voice of resistance of the body. The huge kinetic energy pushed him up the mountain wall like Artesa, and then suddenly grasped a vine with his hands when approaching the highest point, and Zero relieved his fourth-order agility.

Fortunately, this "distance" of exertion is not far away, and Zero's body can stand it. But looking at the trend of the canyon extending far away, Ling couldn't help laughing bitterly. Now he can only hope that his body can survive this distance as he expected. Otherwise, the dark blue earth under his feet will become his most gorgeous coffin!
