"Hurry, hurry, faster!"
"This is already the fastest speed, City Lord."
"Think of a way, those guys are about to catch up!"
“…”
Underground in the wasteland, in the mole people's mobile fortress, the conscientious merchant's urgent shouts continued to ring out, but all he got in response was the mole people's silence. It was not that they did not want to speed up, but the conditions did not allow it. The speed of digging the hole was so fast that the front end of the drill bit had turned red and was emitting sparks. Even if the city lord urged, the speed could not be increased.
The mole people are more accustomed to preparing in advance and digging enough passages underground so that when attacked, they can escape into the maze-like cave network.
This was indeed what they did before, but the city lord suddenly asked them to move in a certain direction. Moreover, that area was a forbidden area, a place they were unfamiliar with, so naturally there was no underground cave leading to that area. They could only dig holes while moving forward, but how fast could they dig holes now?
A group of ferocious headhunters were chasing them from behind, and the mole people were also panicking. Although they didn't want to hurry, they were helpless.
If the speed cannot be increased, then think of other ways!
The conscientious businessman had sweat on his forehead and looked panicked, but he knew in his heart that the more critical the moment, the calmer and more sober he had to be.
He forced himself to calm down, thinking hard about how to escape.
Digging a hole will slow down your own speed, but the enemy doesn't need to slow down when passing through the cave, so... Damn, I'm stupid, why do I have to dig a hole underground to run? Can't I just go to the ground? Anyway, the distance to the coordinate point is not too far. If I try hard, I can still get there before the headhunters catch up.
"Up! Upwards diagonally, rush to the ground!" The conscientious businessman who had figured it out did not dare to hesitate at all and gave the order immediately.
After receiving the order, the rat people immediately turned the fortress and rushed towards the surface, leaving behind a long slope.
Boom!
Amidst the roar, a huge drill broke out from the ground. Behind the drill was a carriage made of thick tree roots and vines, which also rushed out from the ground.
The moleman's mobile fortress emerged from the ground, and without hesitation, it quickly adjusted its direction, aimed at the coordinates, and sped away at full speed.
Not to mention, moving on the ground is indeed better than moving underground. At least you don't have to dig holes while running, which saves a lot of trouble and can also increase the speed of the mobile fortress.
Shortly after the mobile fortress left, dense footsteps were heard in the underground cave, and a group of headhunters caught up.
The leader of the headhunters raised his hand, and the tribesmen immediately stopped. A headhunter who was good at tracking came out, touched the ground, walked forward a few steps, looked around cautiously, and then returned to the leader to report.
"There was no ambush."
"Chase!"
After chasing for so long, there is no way they can give up. The leader took the lead and rushed into the new cave.
This cave was different from the previous ones. It was slanted upwards and had a slope. Chasing upwards consumed more of their energy and slowed down their speed.
When the leader of the Headhunters came out of the cave with his men, the rat people's mobile fortress had already disappeared, but there were wheel tracks left on the ground. No need to be reminded, everyone knew which direction the fortress was heading.
The leader said nothing and followed the wheel tracks.
…
"It's a bit slow, isn't it here yet?"
Li Ziyu checked the system and found that the agreed time had almost arrived, but the Gopher Man's Moving Castle had not appeared yet.
Just when he was getting impatient, a skeleton undead came to him and told him that there was a breath of life approaching quickly in the distance.
Here we come!
Li Ziyu's eyes lit up, and he asked all the undead to get ready, while he himself waited with the skeleton warriors.
In the distance, two beams of light came.
Li Ziyu squinted his eyes and vaguely saw a large object. At the front was a large drill, and behind it were carriages that had been thrown into the air.
Okay, is this a train with such high technology?
In the darkness in the distance, the mole people's mobile fortress was moving at full speed, but their fortress was more adapted to underground life. Being on the ground was not as comfortable as underground. The whole fortress was shaking, as if it was drunk.
【Private Chat】
Conscientious Businessman: I think I see you.
Don’t want to take a driving test: If you think you’re going to go, that’s me, why the hell slow down, do you want to hit me to death?!
Conscientious businessman: ...I understand!
After exchanging a few words, the crooked and wobbly "Mole Man Train" suddenly braked, its wheels sliding on the ground, raising a cloud of dust, and slid all the way in front of Li Ziyu, barely stopping.
Li Ziyu slowly raised his head and looked at the tall and heavy drill that was so close to him. The muscles on his face twitched and his eyes slowly narrowed.
It was so dangerous! If I had gone any further, I would have lost my life!
The extra-large carriage behind the drill opened, and a group of people ran out from it, approaching Li Ziyu. The leader was a human, and behind him were mole people.
As soon as they approached, the skeleton warriors stepped forward, pointing the bone knives in their hands at these uninvited guests.
"Uh... stop, stop, stop!" The conscientious businessman quickly stopped, raised his hands in surrender, and shouted loudly.
In fact, he didn't need to shout. When the mole people saw the undead clearly, they stopped and hesitated to move forward.
Li Ziyu was looking at the people in front of him from behind the undead. The human in front should be the conscientious businessman. He looked young, probably in his twenties. In his previous life, he should not have graduated from university yet. He was not what he imagined.
