Zhang Biao heard the shouts and knew that the woman in fine clothes was ready.
He looked up, took one last deep look at the people in the shelter across the way, then turned and ran quickly back to the group.
"What, still trying to run away?" the commander said with a disdainful and contemptuous tone.
As soon as Zhang Biao ran back, the woman in the fine clothes quickly raised her hands.
"speed!"
A pale blue light emanated from her, quickly enveloping Zhang Biao and the entire safe zone team.
In an instant, everyone felt their bodies become incredibly light and their speed increased dramatically.
Even the ordinary people in the team felt like they were walking on air.
"Run!"
Zhang Biao shouted to the group, grabbed the woman in fine clothes, and led the way to flee eastward.
The Zhang family members knew that this might be their last chance to survive, so they all ran for their lives.
The group in the safe zone sped away from the side like a gust of wind, splashing countless water droplets wherever they went.
Such a fast movement speed greatly exceeded the commander's expectations.
"Chase them!" the commander roared, his eyes wide with rage.
The people in the nearby shelter immediately chased after Zhang Biao and his group in the direction they had fled.
However, despite their best efforts to catch up, they were unable to close the gap with Zhang Biao's team.
"So fast, it's thanks to the wind ability!" The commander then realized he had underestimated his opponent.
Zhang Biao glanced back at the group of people in the shelter who were hot on their heels, and shouted:
"Let's all give it our all!"
With the aid of wind-related abilities, the Zhang family's safe zone team ran desperately, disregarding everything else.
"Damn it, we can't let them get away."
As Zhang Biao and his men disappeared into the distance, the commander felt a sudden sense of panic.
The Holy Son is right behind him; if the other party really escapes, he will likely be held responsible as well.
The commander glanced at the Holy Son behind him with a heart full of fear, then turned around and quickly chased after him.
"Everyone, speed up! We absolutely cannot let them escape!"
The commander's voice revealed an unprecedented tension and urgency, and he pushed his speed to the limit.
Under their commander's orders, the pursuers from the shelter quickened their pace, attempting to catch up.
The commander himself kept closing the distance between himself and Zhang Biao, but Zhang Biao's troops were still moving at an astonishing speed.
Only then did the Holy Son, accompanied by his attendants, calmly follow.
It seems that whether Zhang Biao escapes or not makes no difference to him.
Both groups quickly disappeared from Li Yu's and his party's sight.
"Great, they're gone." Sun Hao said happily.
"The people in the safe zone are running so fast. Why haven't I seen them use this before?" Zhao Xiong wondered, watching this scene.
If this superpower that can greatly increase speed could have been used earlier, the people in the safe zone would have already left all the refugees behind them, and they wouldn't have ended up in such a sorry state.
Ma Yuanbai, however, did not think so: "To be able to empower so many people with their superpowers, the price must be extremely high. They will not easily use it unless it is the very last moment when life and death are at stake."
"But this is good, let's take this opportunity to leave quickly."
Ma Yuanbai quickly identified the route and led the group towards the mountaintop.
With the threat gone, the group moved quickly.
Before long, everyone could see the mountain peak in front of them.
"Look, we've reached the top of the mountain!" Zhao Xiong couldn't contain his excitement and was the first to rush up.
“It’s a plateau!” Xu Jing exclaimed in surprise.
"It's so vast!" Ma Yuanbai looked at the large expanse of flat land atop the mountain and was somewhat surprised.
Although this was his destination, it was also his first time here.
Suddenly, Zhao Xiong, who had rushed onto the platform, was struck by lightning and froze on the spot.
"What's wrong!"
Seeing that Zhao Xiong was motionless, everyone rushed over to check on him.
When they saw the view from the mountaintop, everyone was stunned for a moment.
Time seemed to freeze at that moment; they were so deeply awestruck by the magnificent scenery before them that they were speechless.
Like Zhao Xiong, they were as if frozen in place, too shocked to recover for a long time.
"This is!" Even Li Yu was speechless with surprise.
What unfolded before them was an endless expanse of green vegetation, a magnificent natural landscape they had never seen in their lives.
The lush green stretched to the horizon, like a giant green ribbon spread across the land, truly a green ocean.
In this relentless torrential rain, green plants sway gently in the wind.
This green sea of life is particularly breathtaking and can truly be called a world wonder.
"It's so beautiful, it's like heaven." Xu Jing's mouth was slightly open.
"My God!" Zhao Xiong finally came to his senses.
"Is this... a miracle?" Fu Xiyao was also so shocked that she couldn't speak.
Li Yu took a deep breath; he never imagined that there was such a vibrant place in the world.
The group quickly stepped forward and touched the rain-soaked plants, confirming that it was not a hallucination.
"This is the grassland! We've arrived at the grassland!" Sun Hao exclaimed, panting heavily.
"It's not grass."
Ma Yuanbai slowly squatted down and carefully examined the plant's stems and leaves.
"It was Xiaoye who bought the hemp vine."
"What is that?" Sun Hao was taken aback; it was a word he had never heard of before.
"It is a gymnosperm."
Ma Yuanbai touched the leaves with his hand. Seeing the strange looks from his teammates, Ma Yuanbai had no choice but to compromise and say:
"Just treat it as grass."
Li Yu remembered the name of the plant, but at the same time, he felt a strong curiosity about Ma Yuanbai.
It's important to understand that a scavenger could not possibly possess the extensive knowledge that Ma Yuanbai had.
Recalling her past acquaintance with Ma Yuanbai, Li Yu even felt that those high-ranking people in the safe zone might not be as smart as Ma Yuanbai.
"How do you know so much?" Li Yu asked softly.
"I..."
Ma Yuanbai was about to speak.
"Ma Yuanbai, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
Suddenly, a voice came, and several people instantly stood up from the green plants in front.
Everyone was shocked, because their team had two sensory ability users, yet they hadn't noticed these people.
These people seemed to have been hiding motionless under the plants for a long time, so much so that even Fu Xiyao did not notice anything unusual.
"It's you..."
When Ma Yuanbai saw the other person, he did not show any surprise on his face, as if he had known this person for a long time.
Li Yu and Fu Xiyao also felt that the person in front of them looked somewhat familiar.
Li Yu quickly remembered that this was the strongest Awakened Squad among the refugees.
Furthermore, he also participated in the fighting with the Black Mountain security zone.
I never expected to run into them here, and it seems they're here for Ma Yuanbai.
The leader slowly walked over and looked at Ma Yuanbai:
“I’ve heard about your plan, and I’m very interested in it.”
