Chapter 1264 - 633: Beasts, Beasts, and Beasts
Suddenly, the sky fell and the earth cracked.
On the dark firmament above, cracks spread and emerged, looking as if they were brutally ravaged by an iron hammer, beams of blazing light pierced through, Withering everything.
The ground shook as if trembling, the raging wind howled mournfully, and a Blood Rain poured down like tears.
The originally desolate world instantaneously plunged into Destruction.
It was hard to see what exactly happened in the darkness under the giant trees; the dead silent ruins of the Old Capital had already been swallowed by beams of blazing light and blood.
They're fighting!
Ji Jue was startled.
For the moment, he couldn't bother with Old Ghost Ci Ji who only talked; he dashed madly out of the vehicle.
The camp was in chaos, massive boulders swept through in the raging wind, tearing the fragile walls and shacks into shreds.
Screams rose and fell.
Boom!
Suddenly, the wind, blood rain, and earthquake came to a halt, or rather, were shut out.
Telekinesis flowed like a dome, enveloping the entire camp, cracks continuously emerged, in the hair-raising sound of shattering, gaps spread…
"Brother Shan, what's happening?" Ji Jue finally found Tong Shan.
"The Federation and Empire started fighting." Tong Shan's expression was grim, "Don't say anything, pack up and get in the car, evacuate immediately!"
"Everyone, abandon all non-essential supplies, in half a minute, the convoy will set off!"
He waved expressionlessly, telekinesis surged, clearing all unnecessary items from the truck, frantically shedding weight, racing against time to pack everything.
What more can be said?
Looking at the current circumstance, isn't everything clear?
Bad news! Forest Country is acting!
Good news? Tian Yuan is acting too, damn it!
From start to now, both sides have been acting, to the extent that they were all immersed in their performances, unable to distinguish what the heavens and earth are.
Tian Yuan pretended to probe gradually, actually gathering strength.
The Wolf acted too, pretending a difficult Transformation, actually almost succeeding…
In the seemingly tense situation, secret probes continued, the undercurrent beneath the surface exploded as one side broke the balance, turning into a 'flood' that submerged the entire Forest Country completely.
At this moment, deafening noises erupted, alarms in the outpost blared one after another.
Everyone's face turned pale, they couldn't even react.
Is this… really fighting now?
People always tend to overestimate their own importance, leading to unrealistic expectations and Illusions, mistakenly thinking they can play a valuable role.
Unfortunately, there's no chance anymore.
When the Wolf Pack chose not to bite, the bait had already lost its value.
The reality is always complicated, chaotic beyond description, nobody knows what might happen the next moment, even Tian Yuan is no exception.
Overly complex and beautifully crafted plans are useless when sudden situations truly arise; stubbornly sticking to them is courting death.
The key lies in adapting to circumstances, using strategies according to the situation… most importantly, making decisive cuts!
So, they've been [cut] off.
Or rather, successfully fulfilled their role as 'discarded pieces', slightly distracting Forest Country, causing them to divert considerable attention to handle the trouble brought by this Vanguard Team.
And when preparations were truly made, the bait that lost value was no longer important…
Why keep it?
The Federation and Empire chose to flip the table directly.
You think I have a conscience?
Sorry, I'm pretending!
Whether it's feigning one thing while doing another or launching a diversionary attack, now that action has commenced, the entire outpost has become nothing but a display…
No, even a display is better, at least nobody goes against a display, and now, they can only seek survival on their own.
If they don't hurry to flee, what are they waiting for?!
Wait for death?!
If the Federation and Empire win, at worst, they return for accolades and rewards; if the Federation and Empire's actions encounter any setback…
Then someone is going to suffer terribly!
Tong Shan didn't need to say anything; Ji Jue had already begun the Mechanical Descent as he sprinted out, the freshly unfolded workshop quickly contracted, countless machines scurried like spiders, retreating to their positions.
In just a few seconds, he left a pile of junk and returned to the Little Ox and Horse's compartment, and An Ning was already refreshed in the passenger seat.
Ji Jue stomped on the accelerator, amid the roaring sound, he followed behind the Tongshan Team's truck, ready to retreat.
But in this instant, amidst the sound of wind, thunder, and the dull sound of collapsing, he suddenly heard a crisp ringing sound.
[Ding——]
It's like, in the deepest part of darkness, a faint bell rang.
Ji Jue's vision went black.
[Ding——]
As the second brass bell-like sound rang out, he was engulfed by the face-to-face darkness, in the daze, it seemed he heard Old Ghost Ci Ji's soft sigh and caution, "Be careful."
Screw being careful!
Where were you earlier?!
Ji Jue instinctively wanted to berate, but in the confusion, amidst the chaotic darkness before him, the dark forms of the dense forest seemed to emerge.
Amidst flashing lightning and bursts of thunder, blood-red raindrops fell from the sky. Shadows formed by grotesque and sinister branches intertwined like dancing, engulfing everything.
In Shangrila's resonance, he had already fallen into the Illusion!
Or perhaps…
——Fallen into the [Forest]!
Countless phantoms appeared before his eyes, withered leaves, decayed corpses, Thunderbolt, burning, flames, giant trees, pythons, insects, twisted faces, and beasts…
