【0892】 Dilemma
The Void Cult Group has set up a net of heaven and earth.
On the other hand, Kassadin and Jax, who had been leading the students to transfer, knew nothing about all this.
Due to the effective interference before, the entire team was in an excited and optimistic state - of course, as the same sentence, there was also eternal flames here - although the students worked very hard to shuttle through the ground hernia, they could supply from time to time and even put on enemies, so the young people were still very excited.
On the contrary, Jax, as the commander, always maintained a considerable degree of vigilance, as if the believers of the void could appear before them at any time.
Regarding this situation, many students said "Mr. Jax made a fuss", but Jax himself still "does his own way" and was still careful in everything even if he was very tired.
It was this caution that made him realize something was wrong at the first time.
Silently counting the time, on the fifth day after entering the Great Sai Desert, Jax suddenly realized that the Void Believers who were chasing him behind were moving too fast.
Unless these guys also travel through the ground hernia, they should never catch up with the team!
You know, after entering the Dasai Desert, the students even only provided a short supply. In this case, the believers of the void should not come to the end no matter what!
What went wrong?
Could it be that those believers in the void also left the ground hernia for fear of their lives?
No, that shouldn't be the case.
Jax shook his head and first denied the possibility.
Without the help of Eternal Flame, if the believers of the Void really go to the ground, they will definitely fall into madness, rather than pressing over with a tight formation like this.
Jax, who was full of doubt, asked Kasha about the team's recent action route, and then was surprised to find that because the ground hernia was not a straight line, the team had been in a circle recently.
I'm afraid...it is precisely because of this circle that believers in the void can catch up with themselves!
In this case, a new problem arises.
How did the believers in the Void know the direction of the team?
With this doubt, Jax asked in detail about the ground hernia in the Kasha Dasai Desert. Then, he was stunned to learn that there were only two ground hernia that were long enough to serve as a passage, one to the north and the other to the east.
Then, there is only one reason that can explain this situation - these void lackeys finally figured out how the team was moving and prepared a big net!
Jax, who realized this, suddenly burst into cold sweat.
The team has now arrived in the depths of the Dasai Desert, just when there is no village or shop in front. If you continue to move forward for a while and fall into the encirclement of believers in the void, you may not have a chance to leave at that time!
Until now, Jax would not expect the Void Cult to suddenly become stupid and not concentrate enough troops. For him, the urgent need for delays now is to change direction quickly and change places!
So, while ordering the team to stop and organize a rest on the spot, he asked Kasha about other possible paths.
However, the news from Kasha made his heart feel cold.
"We can only return the same way and turn around the direction near Vikoala. There are not many hernia nearby, nor many signs of void creatures appearing."
Do you really want to look back?
Jax looked at the dotted lines on the map, and hesitated rarely.
It seems that I have only two ways. Either speed up and enter the marijuana before setting up an ambush in front of the enemy; or retreat decisively, destroy this pursuer who seems to be a small number, and then jump out of the encirclement and make a long-term plan.
These two choices have their pros and cons, but Jax is very clear that no matter which choice, it is essentially a bet on the next plan of the believers of the Void and their next choice - while Jax, who has more than 200 students, does not want to bet, he hopes to have a more stable and safe choice.
After thinking for a while, Jax suddenly pointed to a small, special marking point in the map.
"Is there a ground hernia here?"
"No." Kasha looked at the map and finally shook her head, "It shouldn't be... I've never seen this place called Cyrenota."
I haven't seen it before, which means that the city is not on the normal path of hernia!
Thinking of the description of the city that Yasuo had talked to him, Jax keenly saw the opportunity.
………………………………………
Under Jax's order, the team quickly turned around and quickly left the ground hernia.
After leaving the ground hernia, Jax rarely lit and looked after the eternal flame at the campfire party. He stared at the starry sky all the time, compared the sextant in his hand, carefully calculated his position, and then carefully compared it with the marks on the map.
After Jax's calculations, with the precise signs on the map, the straight line distance from the exit of the current hernia to the Chileno Tower is about 300 miles.
And at this distance... the students can go directly to the ground without going through the ground hernia!
At this moment, the secret of crossing the ground hernia has been exposed. Going to the ground hernia is no longer a secret way. At this critical moment, suddenly returning to the ground will be an excellent opportunity and cover!
Although these little mages were seriously exhausted, they could walk a hundred miles a day and a night. Even if they had rest time, four days would be enough for them to reach the Tower of Cyrino!
According to the information provided by Yasuo before, the secret city of Cyrenotha is enough to support the team to renovate and get a chance to breathe. As long as you travel through the wind and sand of more than 300 miles, you can completely break out of the encirclement of the Void Clan!
In this way, after the bonfire party, when the students subconsciously wanted to enter the ground hernia to rest, Jax issued the first order to march the desert at night.
The students who heard the order looked at each other, not sure why they suddenly left like this - but because of the success of crossing the river four times, they had learned to obey orders. Although many people began to complain in a low voice, the students finally carried their bags and acted quickly.
This trip will take one day overnight.
On the night of the next day, it was confirmed that the team was still on the predetermined trajectory and had already been away from the position of the ground hernia passing by, and Jax finally issued a order to trim.
Although there are people in this team who can make drinking water, compared to Nunu, who can easily bear the entire team, the little mage here can only moisten everyone's lips. In addition, because there is no need for drinking water in the ground hernia, the team carries very limited drinking water supplies.
In this case, the students now had no strength to cheer. They dug holes for themselves for sleeping in groups of three or three, and then "buryed" the sleeping bags with themselves together.
Soon, the snoring sounds overwhelmed the howling of the desert night wind.
Looking at the student who fell asleep quickly, Jax's heart had already sunk to the bottom. Through this day and night of marching, he sadly discovered that the student's movement speed was lower than he expected.
Because of frequent crossing sand dunes and facing sand storms from time to time, the day and night passed, and the team only advanced less than 60 miles, which was only 60% of what Jax expected!
The main reason for this judgment may be the special environment of ground hernia and the error caused by Scalash's previous transport of materials. Suddenly, the excitement of discovering a new road made Jax not rigorous enough when calculating the distance, and as a result, a two-day gap appeared.
The students' material support for four days is stress-free, and they will wait for a slight dehydration; however, if they have to support for six days... I am afraid that a considerable number of students will not be able to hold on before arriving at the Cyrenot Tower.
what to do?!
Do you want to give up some students?
No, no!
Jax is very clear about the importance of these students, and he will never accept it if he gives up some students halfway!
Chapter completed!
