Now that he had determined the general direction of the other party, the following matters were easy to deal with.
As long as he followed the white wolfâs guidance and went straight to the main point, he would be able to save Geng Hu.
âDo you know how many people there are?â
Qin Yuan asked as he walked.
âDo you really think we are omnipotent? We definitely donât know the number of people, but we can be sure that they are definitely more than us.â
Green Snake curled his lips and said.
Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows and did not comment.
âThen how far is it before we reach our destination?â
â Iâm not sure. All I can get is a general direction.â
The green snake still gave a negative answer, his face indifferent.
â Alright, this isnât quite the same as your normal situation. Is the other partyâs whereabouts so hard to track?â
Qin Yuan said in a low voice.
This was something they did not expect. They did not know the other partyâs combat strength, but even professional tracking experts like Green Snake and White Wolf could not figure them out.
Traces, this was a rare thing.
â I also find it strange. Whether itâs their aura or their footprints, theyâve hidden themselves perfectly. It took us a lot of effort to find a trace of them.â
âWill there be any accidents? Are you sure itâs not a trap they deliberately left behind?â
Green Snake smiled and shook his head.
âNo, you wonât doubt our investigative ability, right? Although their anti-reconnaissance ability is very strong, we have special detection methods. This is something that they canât completely hide no matter how hard they hide.â
âIs it okay for us to march at the same speed as before? It was a combination of stealth and speed. At the very least, we canât be discovered by the other party.â
Qin Yuan asked.
â No problem. Since theyâre no longer around, we donât have to worry about them keeping an eye on us.â
â This team doesnât fit Xiao Yanâs style. The previous teams were swift and decisive, but this team is acting so strangely. It makes me feel very uncomfortable.â
Qin Yuan continued to frown.
âWho knows? I donât know much about the troops in the organization either. Iâm just an outsider.â
After that, the group of people slowly moved toward the east.
There were no obstacles along the way. However, this road was not the one they had just walked through. Instead, it led to a mountainous area on the other side.
âThis way means we have left this forest.â
Qin Yuan said in a deep voice.
If they left this forest, the logistics company would lose some of their natural advantages.
In the mountains, there were no trees to obstruct their vision. Their slightly thin troops were very likely to be exposed to the enemyâs firepower.
âIf our troops go in, there will be a certain risk.â
He Chenguang also realized this problem and said in a low voice.
âThereâs no other way. We have no choice.â
Qin Yuan frowned.
âSince weâre already here, thereâs no reason to retreat.â
Qin Yuan said as he looked into the distance, deep in thought.
Green Snake also walked over and stood beside Qin Yuan. He narrowed his eyes and said.
âI didnât know it would be like this either. After all, weâre a kilometer away.â
âWhy donât I arrange for the white wolf to explore the front again and see if thereâs any danger before we make a decision?â
âNo need.â
Qin Yuan decisively refused.
âIf they wanted to ambush us, they definitely wouldnât leave any traces. Donât waste your time and energy.â
Green Snake smiled.
âAlright, itâs good that you understand. The logic is this. It depends on our performance on the spot. There must be danger waiting for us ahead.â
Qin Yuan did not say anything. He stood up from the ground and turned to the soldiers behind him.
âEveryone, stop! Be quiet and listen to me!â
â Thereâs an empty mountain ahead. Itâs not as easy to hide as the forest. Itâs very likely that the enemy is deliberately luring us here!â
âWe definitely have fewer people than the other party! This will be an extremely difficult battle. Since we are here, I hope that everyone will be mentally prepared. Tell me, do you have the confidence to defeat them?â
Qin Yuanâs aura was like a rainbow, as if he had the might of a thunderbolt.
âYes!â
The soldiers below did not hesitate at all and shouted in unison.
âGood! Speed up! All troops, move out!â
As he spoke, Qin Yuan held his weapon tightly and began to stride forward.
The soldiers at the back did not say anything and followed behind.
There was no natural barrier here, so they could only slowly advance along the rugged mountain road. The team was basically exposed in the open space.
âItâs precisely because of the open space that we have to speed up!â đ»đ»đâŻđžđŠđđđžđżđźđ.đđ°đ¶
He Chenguang said.
Qin Yuanâs decision was right. Now was the time to test them.
Everyone in the logistics company took out all their courage and perseverance and began this march.
Stepping into this mountainous area, the group felt extremely uncomfortable. After all, they had experienced a few battles in the forest before. Now that they had changed the terrain to the mountainous area, they would definitely feel a lot of discomfort.
It was not only the difference in the terrain, but the temperature had also risen. Although it was still night, the temperature in the mountainous area was close to 30 degrees Celsius. It was more than ten degrees Celsius higher than the original forest area. It had already caused a chain reaction between the psychological discomfort and physical discomfort of some soldiers in the logistics company. Soon, some of them could not hold on.
