Steel steam and flame

"How long is expected?" The team pulled away midway. Grant looked at the car window and asked casually.

"It will take a day to drive without stopping. I think it will be a day and a half before we actually get there." The soft voice seemed very well-behaved at this time. With the light in the armored vehicle, she was still studying the information provided by Osiris. information.

"Then please inform the remaining members of Hefuluo's team and ask them to follow closely. If necessary, they can launch an attack to delay that team. Don't wait until we pass and we are completely disconnected from the teams. But I think the team organized by the lighting will not do this, and will definitely keep themselves at a suitable distance from other teams. There is no need to worry about this." As he said that, Grant had already chosen a comfortable position to lean on. On the armored car, he closed his eyes and said, "Remember to call me when you take a break. Also, if there is news about the Flame Tribe or other tribes, please notify me as soon as possible."

"Understood, Lord Grant." After that, there was no movement in the armored vehicle, and the sound of friction between the engine and tires gradually increased and enveloped them.

In the early morning, a motorcade that looked like it had been traveling for a long time stopped at a station on the roadside. It's late summer, approaching autumn, and the mornings are starting to get cold. Several arm-thick steam pipes were pulled out and connected to the limo. Behind the station, several chimneys made of red bricks were surrounded by a few wisps of light gray mist. Dark smoke was pouring out from them, even carrying some unextinguished sparks.

Dudler took the food and water bought from the station and walked towards the limousine he was riding in with a serious face.

Passing some water and food to Tina, Dudler tore open the wrapping paper and ate the fragrant food, but he didn't feel any taste after actually eating it. The only function of food at this time is to fill their stomachs and ensure that their body functions will not decline when needed.

"Can't you?" Tina took a sip of water and glanced at the chimneys emitting black smoke. Large swaths of black smoke have dyed a small area of ​​the sky into light gray. The lifeless plants around the station are no longer so impressive because the moisture condensed in the early morning has wetted the soot on them.

Dudler exhaled and shook his head, "This is the only thing that was not taken into account. Who would have thought that the steam reserves and pressure of this station are not enough to replenish power for less than ten cars at once. I took Qi I asked the top person in charge of the staff at the station about the identity of the king of the Kingdom of Er. He had no choice but to turn on all the stoves, and everyone who could burn them went to burn the stoves. It is estimated that it will take about two hours. There really is no way, we can’t rush this thing.”

"When the time comes, let the truck and a team of people leave first. You lead the team while I stay here and wait." After hearing this, Tina said, "It is now confirmed that one team has been defeated and is converging on the other team. Thunder Wolf The tribe moves very quickly, and we have to think of a way to do it later, otherwise the pressure will be on the fourth team, and I'm afraid there will be a time when we can't hold on."

After finishing the food, Tina drank the water she bought, exhaled, and then took the pistol and dagger, "I will go outside to guard, you stay here at the station." After saying this, Dudler didn't wait. As she spoke, Tina had already got out of the car and walked towards the road she came from.

"The speed is too slow." In Cassia's view, the surrounding scenery is like photos that slowly change one by one in the eyes. Without special observation, you can find their details at the speed of the limo. "The car is still too heavy, do you want to throw some things in?" In the end, I gave up the idea. It would be a good idea for Cassians to wait for the enemy to catch up behind them, or if they saw traces of battle along the way, it would also be a good idea to track the enemy at that time. decision.

But the slow speed is indeed a bit hard for Cassia to endure. Perhaps it is because he is used to riding in the vehicles he usually rides. Although it is not a high-end product, in the world of ordinary people, it can definitely be regarded as a type of luxury and excellent performance. It was not as fast as walking on his own, and he fell a lot. Cassia judged it when he got on the road in the early morning.

Just be patient. It is indeed moving at an even speed, Cassia kept reminding herself.

In the border area, the roads are not very good, and there are almost no vehicles coming and going. As of 9:30 a.m., Cassia did not see anyone else driving a vehicle on the road besides himself. Because there were few vehicles on the road and there had been no strong wind recently, Cassia could tell where Tina and his team were heading from the marks on the dust.

It is estimated that if there are enemies behind them, they will probably rely on this method to pursue the team. Cassia didn't have a good way to clean up these traces, so she didn't think about it. At eleven o'clock in the morning, there was finally some life ahead. There was a roadside station with several chimneys and a small amount of soot coming out, and several limousines were filling up with steam there. Cassia sighed at how familiar the scene was, but at the moment she could only sigh, but she also thought of regrets and helplessness.

The sound wave pulse swept over, not the people in the team.

Cassia repaired here for a while, observed the surroundings, and judged from the traces found that the convoy should have stopped here. And there shouldn't be any cars passing by here for a long time, but several chimneys are emitting black smoke, which means something.

"At least I didn't make a mistake." Cassia thought. Soon after, he continued to drive forward, and at 1 p.m., he stopped on the side of the road.

The artillery blasted half of the road, and there were several artillery craters in the wasteland next to the road. Many warheads were embedded in the concrete. Looking towards the wilderness a few hundred meters away on both sides, one could clearly see an oval-shaped piece of brown land. It was a scene where the bullets shattered the grass and then turned up soil on the ground.

After getting out of the car, Cassia walked over to check it out as if taking a stroll. A dozen corpses were piled aside and simply covered with a layer of grass. Most of them were gunshot wounds, but there were also some marks caused by sharp cold weapons. After a brief look, they should all be mercenaries and bounty hunters. The physical characteristics of people in the Flame Alliance, such as skin and hair, are somewhat different from those in small countries.

I don’t know what happened to the loss of the organization’s team, but it shouldn’t be serious. Cassia looked at the bullet holes on the ground and dug out a few warheads. Judging from the inclination and the direction of the bullet holes, this battle was caused by Tina and the others taking the initiative to attack, or in other words, they discovered the enemy one step ahead and then attacked immediately. It's more likely.

But there was one thing that Cassia thought about for some time before coming to the most likely judgment, which was in line with her expectations.
