The ear-piercing roar of military off-road vehicles pierced the night sky.
As I rushed out of the garage, I was greeted by a pitch-black night.
Ahead lay a narrow tunnel. Lu Zhufeng and Chu Nanfeng quickly adjusted their direction and drove into the tunnel.
The tunnel was dimly lit. Lu Zhufeng looked serious as he focused intently on maneuvering the vehicle and avoiding obstacles ahead.
As the off-road vehicle sped along, an iron gate suddenly appeared under the headlights, with heavy chains wrapped around it, making it look extremely sturdy.
"This is the door. This door is one of the three exits from the Dark Realm."
Sitting in the passenger seat, Beishan quickly spoke up, "It's a pity it's not a smart lock; it can only be opened with a key or by brute force."
As they approached the closed door, Lu Zhufeng slammed on the brakes. In the back seat, Chu Liyue tightly protected Xiao Wujie's body and head, her beautiful and cold face calm and composed, showing no sign of panic.
"Don't panic, there must be heavy cutting tools in the trunk of the military vehicle. I'll go cut the door lock. Lu Zhufeng, you protect them."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Liyue was about to get out of the car when Xiao Wujie, who was in her arms, let out a soft, uneasy groan.
"He can't live without you now, I'll go!"
Lu Zhufeng glanced anxiously at the haggard and pained Xiao Wujie, then kept the vehicle idling and quickly jumped out.
As expected, the trunk of the car was full of emergency supplies. Grabbing a large axe, Lu Zhufeng's thick arms were bulging with muscles and veins, and he swung the axe to cut the chains wrapped around the iron gate.
Yunmo, who was sitting in the car behind, also quickly got out of the car, made hand seals, and used his special technique to help.
Time passed second by second, and amidst the intense clanging of metal, fine beads of sweat appeared on Lu Zhufeng's forehead.
Finally, the chains broke, and Lu Zhufeng exerted force with his hands, causing the iron gate to open wide.
Lu Zhufeng sped back to the car, floored the gas pedal, and the vehicle roared off.
With the help of the car headlights, the outside world was already faintly visible. "We've succeeded! We've successfully exited the tunnel."
Hearing Bei Shan's slightly excited voice, Lu Zhufeng remained vigilant, his eyes fixed sharply ahead as he continued to drive the vehicle forward at high speed.
Just as they were about to leave the tunnel, the roar of engines came from behind the two vehicles, and several similar military off-road vehicles came after them.
Damn it!
Gritting his teeth and cursing under his breath, Lu Zhufeng understood that the moment he broke the iron gate had given the guards behind him an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
The problem is that with the same military off-road vehicle and the same maximum speed, it's difficult to shake off the other at this distance.
Lu Zhufeng and Chu Nanfeng each drove a military off-road vehicle, one in front of the other, rushing out of the tunnel and speeding away.
But nearly ten military vehicles were sticking to the rear like glue, maintaining a distance between them, making it impossible to catch up or shake them off.
The pursuing guards were clearly aware of this as well, and gun barrels protruded along the car windows, with a continuous barrage of gunfire hitting the car body and tires.
The sharp scraping sound was so loud it hurt your eardrums, and sparks flew everywhere on the car body.
Looking at Xiao Wujie in her arms, whose ears were covered and who was still in shock, frowning and in unbearable pain, Chu Liyue's gaze was extremely sharp as she looked at the situation behind her through the rearview mirror.
With a slight frown, just as Chu Liyue was about to get out of the carriage to deal with the persistent nuisance behind her, Beishan suddenly spoke up:
"Sister Liyue, are we going to the Chinese Embassy?"
Chu Liyue slightly raised her cold eyes and uttered a soft "hmm".
She didn't trust anyone else to treat Xiao Wujie, so she had already contacted Lin Qingyi beforehand to ask her to make preparations.
Moreover, given their current status as fugitives, only the Chinese Embassy can provide them with shelter.
With his small eyes fixed on the satellite navigation map on the microcomputer, Beishan pointed out the darkness outside the window.
"Take a right turn about 100 meters ahead. There's a small road there that can reduce the distance by nearly a third."
Lu Zhufeng's eyes lit up slightly. The shortcut not only reduced the distance, but also, given the complex terrain, made it easier for him to shake off his pursuers.
He honked the horn a few times to signal Chu Nanfeng behind him, then turned the steering wheel sharply with one hand while pressing the accelerator pedal without reducing its pressure.
Turning corners, flowing smoothly, enjoying a silky-smooth ride.
The car swerved and quickly drove into the dark, winding alley.
Chu Nanfeng, who received his signal from behind, also drove with superb skills, executing a swift maneuver and following closely behind.
On the narrow road, the road conditions were complicated. Lu Zhufeng kept his eyes fixed on the road ahead and skillfully avoided various obstacles with his superb driving skills.
At the same time, he kept glancing back, and sure enough, on such a winding road, the advantage of driving skills became apparent, and there were significantly fewer cars following closely behind.
Just then, a sharp turn appeared out of nowhere ahead. Lu Zhufeng's pupils contracted sharply, and he jerked the steering wheel, almost causing the vehicle to lose control.
Chu Nanfeng reacted extremely quickly. As his car swayed, the two cars almost brushed past each other, and their positions were instantly reversed.
It was during this brief moment of unexpected slowdown that a pursuing vehicle quickly flanked them from the side, blocking their path.
"What should we do?" Beishan asked anxiously.
Chu Nanfeng and his group have already escaped, and it would be a loss if they had to turn back because of them.
Lu Zhufeng's rugged face was cold and indifferent, his eyes sharp and piercing, showing no sign of panic.
"Stop abruptly, reverse and hit him, then drive off!"
In the back seat of the car, Chu Liyue looked at him through the rearview mirror and said the most provocative words in the calmest voice.
"Hold on tight!"
With a loud shout, Lu Zhufeng did not hesitate at all and immediately slammed on the brakes, bringing the vehicle to an abrupt stop on the spot.
Immediately afterwards, he pulled the gear lever sharply, floored the accelerator, and reversed rapidly, using the vehicle's momentum to rush towards the pursuing vehicle.
The two vehicles collided with a loud bang, and the pursuing vehicle was overturned in the middle of the road.
On the narrow road, the vehicles chasing from behind were unable to avoid the overturned vehicle and crashed into it one after another. Thick smoke billowed from where the front and rear of the vehicles collided, resembling a scene of a major car accident.
Lu Zhufeng seized the opportunity to shift gears and accelerate, speeding forward with the wrecked rear end of his car in the air.
Having shaken off his pursuers, Lu Zhufeng gritted his teeth and sped away, taking shortcuts to reduce the two-hour drive to Beishankou to fifty minutes.
During the frantic run, Xiao Wujie's condition, as Chu Liyue had predicted, fluctuated, and he was in so much pain that he almost fainted.
After a thrilling and frantic journey, the group finally arrived at the Chinese Embassy.
When they were exhausted and preoccupied with many trivial matters, they naturally found it difficult to notice that in the dark corners unseen by the embassy, a pair of sinister, empty, and seemingly struggling eyes were silently watching them.
