Qi Shu watched both of them leave through the window. He then fell into deep thought.
He had obtained a lot of useful information just now. Right now, Yangcheng was surrounded by danger both internally and externally. Even the military was forced to take up a defensive stance and await reinforcements.
He had also obtained another piece of good news, which was the fact that there were many pieces of the source of life within the Yangcheng Mountain Range. It seemed like not many people from the military and the Deity Organization had entered that area. If he headed there, he would definitely gain quite a lot of benefits.
One would understand the benefits of the source of life after absorbing it once. Just a small amount of it was equivalent to a few days of upgrades through the cheats system.
Yangcheng Mountain Range was like a treasure trove right now, and it was so nearby. It would definitely be a pity if he did not go in and get some of the source of life.
Although it was relatively dangerous, he thought about the movement technique he possessed. It would be hard for ten evolutionary beasts or so to threaten him. He would head there to search for some of the source of life. As long as he was careful, there should not be any problems.
Qi Shu was also confident that as long as he did not encounter any evolutionary beasts that were about to evolve to a Warrior rank, he could easily escape even if he could not defeat them.
The military’s investigation say that it was still too early for the evolutionary beasts to attain a Warrior rank, right? Therefore, he had made a good choice by entering Yangcheng Mountain Range now.
He followed through with his plans. The sky had already darkened, and it was the best time for him to act. He immediately slipped out of the house and relied on his movement technique to move through the darkness.
In such a dark environment, one would only feel a shadow flash past if they saw him. When they tried to look again, they would realize that he had already disappeared.
…
Qi Shu soon entered a shopping mall.
The dim lights in the mall were still flickering, and the items inside were scattered all over the place. There were many bloodstains and bullet shells on the ground. It seemed like the military had already killed all the evolutionary beasts in here.
Qi Shu found what he wanted very quickly. He got a backpack and stored some essential items and food that he would need in the wilderness. Most importantly, he had to hide his identity.
Qi Shu searched for a while. He then found a shop selling special clothes. He took a set of jungle camouflage clothes and a mask before slowly leaving the mall.
Qi Shu prepared everything and headed straight to Yangcheng Mountain Range. As he headed over, he caught sight of several military drones that were patrolling the area. He easily evaded the detection of these drones and quickly headed to Yangcheng Mountain Range.
Qi Shu moved faster and faster. The tall buildings behind him slowly decreased. As he strolled on the farm, he resembled a swift cheetah that was dashing forward.
However, just then, a muffled sound suddenly rang out from behind him. The sound of something piercing through air headed toward him from behind. The thing moved at an unimaginable speed.
Alarm bells rang in Qi Shu’s head. The moment this muffled sound appeared, his body fell forward reflexively. It was as if he had fallen while walking. He then fell into the paddy field.
After that, he felt something pierce through his backpack, and some of the supplies fell out. He did not have the time to care. He then moved several meters away.
The paddy on the farm that he was in right now had just started to grow. Standing on the field, one might not even be able to hide a child that was only a few years old. Qi Shu lowered himself to the ground to completely hid himself from others in the farm.
Qi Shu hid well and immediately noticed the spot where he had fallen earlier. Mud had splattered everywhere, and there was an obvious pit on the ground. It was obvious that someone had fired a sniper rifle from afar.
There was a high chance that this person was from the Deity Organization. One thing was for sure, and the person who used the sniper rifle had an extremely high proficiency in using firearms. If it was not for the fact that he had excellent movement techniques, he would have been seriously injured at the very least.
Qi Shu raised his head slightly and looked through the gap. He realized that the only place that the sniper had shot was the low building in the distance. It should be where the water pumps were placed.
Qi Shu instantly analyzed his situation. He was in an open area, and the surrounding terrain was very disadvantageous for him.
Qi Shu looked coldly in that direction. That person had fired at him for no reason. This guy was already on his kill list, but now was not the time to fight. It was better for him to leave.
Qi Shu immediately lay down on the ground. His body was just like a water snake as he silently moved through the paddy field. It was impossible for the person in the distance to discover him.
…
Not long after Qi Shu left, a man with paint all over his face walked over slowly with a gun in his hand. The equipment on his body were all of a premium quality. He had a pair of infrared night vision binoculars and a thick bulletproof vest. He carried a sniper rifle that looked just like a venomous snake.
The man looked around. He did not detect any living creature through the infrared night vision binocular, so he started to look around. Soon, he discovered a trail that was moving away into the distance.
A hint of surprise appeared in the man’s gaze. He looked at the two bullet holes below him and kept nodding.
“You actually managed to evade my attack. Since when has there been such a powerful person in the military? It’s no wonder that you dared to come here to investigate alone. You’re indeed capable! However, you’re way too rash. I wonder if the military will go crazy after this genius dies?”
Then, he shouted into his earpiece, “Attention, someone from the military is headed in the direction of Area A. This person has exceptional movement technique. He has dodged two of my long-range sniper shots. You should know how capable he is to be able to dodge two of my shots.”
The next moment, a mocking voice rang out in the headset. “He actually managed to dodge your sniper shot? Viper, I think that it’s been a few years since you last took action. Has your sniping skills declined? Or were you being too merciful?”
“Yes, I think that you’ve been fooling around with the ladies too much. Has your hand started shaking?”
Viper did not care about their words at all. He smiled coldly and said mercilessly, “Cut the crap. At the age when I was playing with guns, you guys were still playing with glass balls. Scram to the side. Don’t blame me for not warning you if you die.”
Viper then hung up on the call and looked around before hiding in a new location. He then waited for the next fated person to arrive.
Qi Shu could already see the quarantine zone in the distance now. He found a tree and climbed up. After the previous situation, he realized how dangerous this place was. He checked his backpack. Fortunately, he only scraped the outer layer of the bag, so he did not lose many supplies.
Qi Shu began to be careful as well. It seemed that Yangcheng and Yangcheng Mountain Range were not the most dangerous places. Instead, the humans hiding in the dark who harbored evil intentions were the ones that were the most dangerous. If they were not careful, they might die here.
