…

Yunjiang Plain and the wilderness outside Hengshan Pass.

In the dark night, several camp headlights were set up, and the convoy was filled with the devastation after the war.

Dead companions, broken insect corpses, vehicles covered in plasma, and mountains of various insect corpses surrounded the entire Infinity train.

Several convoys sent out patrol and cleaning teams to investigate possible threats in the dark and the strange insects that had not yet died.

Rescuing the wounded, counting ammunition, repairing vehicles... Inside the camp, people were in a panic and extremely busy.

The key personnel of the four convoys gathered under a temporary tent in the middle of the camp, chatting around the campfire.

"Captain Lin, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we would have been wiped out." Liao Ming's face was full of fatigue after surviving a disaster. He looked at Lin Xian's team and expressed his sincere gratitude. "Uncle Wu, should we..."

Wu Zhenhai raised his hand to interrupt him, indicating that he understood, and then began to call on his men.

"Liangzi, drive our No. 5 supply truck over here."

"No."

Lin Xian saw what the other party meant and said directly: "Since this is a joint operation, we are all working together on the same boat, so there is no need to do this. It is not easy to travel, and you hundreds of people need these supplies more than I do."

"this..."

Hearing Lin Xian's words, Luo Yang, Liang Lei and Li Yi's two teams also looked anxious.

"Brother Lin, you have made great efforts and saved so many lives. We should also show some appreciation."

"That's right. If it weren't for you, my wife and I wouldn't be alive tonight." Liang Lei said hurriedly without even wiping the blood off his face.

Lin Xian waved his hands. In the battle just now, several convoys suffered casualties, but his Infinity was the only one that didn't suffer even a slight injury. Although the three convoys all wanted to seek his protection, the actual situation was that these convoys surrounded the Infinity and had almost used up all the strength and means they could. If he wanted some benefits, he would have asked for it before dark. Now that people were dying and injured, he had no intention of doing so.

"Okay, I appreciate everyone's kindness." Lin Xian looked at the sky and said directly, "The cold front is approaching, and the blizzard is coming. Supplies are the capital for survival. Fighting this battle together today can be regarded as a cooperation of mutual assistance. There is no need to be polite."

After that, Lin Xian briefly told several convoys about their observations of the Dark Mark.

"If nothing goes wrong, we can kill this monster in its territory. We will then hide in the dark. With luck, we may be safe for several nights."

Li Yi touched her bulging belly and looked at Lin Xian with doubt and worry: "Dark Mark? Captain Lin, is this...really credible?"

"From a logical point of view, I think what Brother Lin said is right. It sounds more accurate than the group hunting effect." Luo Yang agreed deeply and said, "The only problem is that if we follow this theory, we can't know whether we have a mark on our body or what level the mark is. We can only judge it by encountering attacks from strange bodies, which is a bit passive."

"What's passive? It's the same." Wu Zhenhai slapped his thigh and said sternly, "We will still encounter it if we are supposed to. The only difference is when to run and when not to run. It's not like you will be lucky every time."

Liao Ming nodded and said with some sudden realization: "No wonder some of the convoys we saw before that managed to escape from large strange entities often disappeared not long after. It turns out that they can only escape after escaping the first day."

"That's what I mean."

Lin Xian looked around. He was just explaining his experience to synchronize with others and did not bring up the Black Chrysanthemum of Hell.

In fact, it doesn't matter whether he says it or not. If others will believe him, there is no need to use something that others don't understand to support his argument. It seems unnecessary.

If you don't believe it, nothing you say will help.

When escaping life and death, what each team trusts most is actually their own experience, and they still have to rely on their own judgment at critical moments.

Lin Xian could also tell from the looks of these people that no one had fully accepted this. After all, they couldn't see the marks on their bodies, and it was difficult to explain the attack by a strange body with some kind of pattern.

So Lin Xian didn't say much, and said directly,

"If you take the highway from Yuankou to the west of Yunzhou Mountains, the cold air should arrive later, but it shouldn't be much better, so I suggest you leave as soon as possible and don't stay."

In the snowstorm, even the Infinity with its ice-breaking shield couldn't advance smoothly, let alone their convoy. In this situation, there was not much time left for everyone to rest.

The cold wind was blowing, and the temperature in the entire Hengshan Pass was dropping rapidly, and it was almost approaching 0 degrees.

"Yes."

Luo Yang nodded: "We plan to set off two hours before dawn. According to the direction and speed of travel, it will be dawn at around 11:25 tomorrow, but the dark time may be as early as 18:20."

Wu Zhenhai frowned: "Less than 7 hours."

"The further north we go, the shorter this time will be. The Phoenix Society's Xilan City station has already issued a notice in advance that they will all evacuate Xilan City in four days. At our speed, we must reach Xilin City within three days, and then we will have enough time to go to Xilan City and join the Phoenix Society." Li Yi calculated clearly: "Considering the widespread snowstorm, we really don't have much time."

"Okay." Lin Xian stood up at this time: "Everyone is tired tonight. The monster's power of fear may have caused some mental effects on the people in the team. Coupled with the black smoke poison brought by the insect tide, I suggest that you all take turns to be on duty and sleep, and distribute enough water and food tonight to make the team atmosphere more stable."

What Lin Xian was worried about was not only the sequelae of the power of fear, but also the strangling monsters and strange bodies on such a large scale. Hundreds of people present were more or less invaded by the black smoke. The Infinity had the Hell Black Chrysanthemum that could convert energy and the Heterogeneous Rubik's Cube that could shield the invasion of fear, but these convoys did not have them, so if they did not recuperate and rest, there might be more unusual situations.

But if handled properly, these team members who have experienced fierce battles may secretly gain a lot of evolutionary improvements.

At this time, Lin Xian pressed the communicator to arrange something, and soon, the building and several Infinity partners came over carrying several boxes of ammunition.

It was placed outside the skylight with a clang.

"Captain Lin, what are you doing?" Liao Ming was a little confused when he saw this scene.

"Ammunition." Lin Xian took a deep breath. "Your ammunition base for tonight is basically used up. It may be difficult to find a place to resupply along the way. We have a lot of surplus in the car, so we will give you some. Otherwise, if you run into trouble again tomorrow, you won't be able to open it."

In fact, what surprised Lin Xian and the members of the Infinity Team was that he originally thought that when facing the most desperate moment of the insect tide, these teams would simply drive out and escape. Unexpectedly, they almost used up all their ammunition and finally retreated to get closer to the Infinity Team.

This was a complete last-ditch effort, and facing this situation, Lin Xian couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He had only known these convoys for a few hours, but everyone was indeed like they were in the same boat, fighting to the death, which touched him deeply.

So he took this into consideration and allocated some of the ammunition originally in the vehicle to them for replenishment. It would only take him a few hours to make it anyway.

But for this large convoy of several hundred people, it might be difficult to gather enough ammunition even after traveling through several towns.

Many of the current ammunition is mainly supplied by the Federation and Phoenix agencies stationed in various places, plus the inventory of some original industrial towns and military bases. It is impossible to find anything by simply searching, so there are very few convoys like Hu Lushou who can aggregate and circulate resources in the doomsday. After all, it is not just relying on the brains of a profiteer. Without a strong team strength, it is impossible to survive until now and move between some large strongholds.

"No, no, no, Captain Lin, this won't do." Li Yihuo stood up and said with dry lips, "You saved so many of us, and we didn't even thank you. How can we still accept your supplies?"

"That's right, we are not that kind of people!" Liang Lei was stunned when he saw the supply box.

Those new weapons and a large amount of ammunition were all brand new and could be exchanged for a lot of food if they were taken outside. So they were just given away.

"Captain Lin, this, this, this won't work..." Liao Ming said quickly.

"Brother Lin." Luo Yang also stood up in a panic: "We..."

"No need to say more." Lin Xian said in a resounding voice: "You all know the current situation of the team. If you can still fight the insect swarm for 5 minutes, I will take it back."

As soon as the words fell, everyone fell silent.

Lin Xian's words hit the nail on the head. Now, let alone fighting for five minutes, it would be difficult for the entire regiment to gather a basic amount of ammunition.

"Everyone is like me, with many lives on their shoulders. There is no need to be polite at this time. Saving lives is the most important thing. If you want to thank Xilan, we can talk about it later if we meet him. Now that we have joined the main force, everyone will feel more at ease, right?" Lin Xian said directly.

Wu Zhenhai glanced at Lin Xian with a complicated expression, took a deep breath, stood up and said

"Okay, Brother Lin, we appreciate your help. I have been in the army for so many years and I don't like to be pretentious, but I don't like to take things with empty hands." After saying that, he looked at Liao Ming: "Old Liao, bring that thing over. Brother Lin has so many superpowers here, they may need it."

Liao Ming's eyes lit up immediately when he heard this, and he quickly understood and nodded, saying to Lin Xian,

"Captain Lin, wait a minute, we have something good, you will definitely be interested!"

When Lin Xian was about to interrupt, Liao Ming had already rushed out.

Not long after, Liao Ming came running over with two of his men. The two men were carrying a silver box in their hands, which looked very high-end.

"What's this?"

Chi!

At this time, Wu Zhenhai walked over and opened the box. In the middle of the huge box was a cylindrical container, as thick as an arm, very standard. Inside was a black mass that looked like a branch.

Wu Zhenhai carefully took the container out of the box and gently touched a setting on it. A purple-blue light began to emit from the inside of the container, and everyone could immediately see the object that looked like a 'branch'.

It turned out to be a plant! It was

about the thickness of a little finger, with very short roots and a few dark purple buds growing on them. Lin Xian looked carefully and found that there was a very tiny purple light flowing in the dark inside the rhizome, like some kind of breathing.

Bloody disaster plant!

Lin Xian reacted and his eyes immediately froze.

Wu Zhenhai introduced: "We found this thing in a destroyed scientific research convoy. I don't know what organization it belonged to. Later, a small team from the Federation found us and wanted to buy it from us at a high price, but we did not agree."

"High price?"

"Haha." Liao Ming now thinks back and finds it incredible: "Yes, at least enough to equip our two Big Eagle convoys, but Uncle Wu refused."

Not to mention Lin Xian, even Luo Yang, Liang Lei and Li Yi looked at Wu Zhenhai in confusion.

Unexpectedly, Wu Zhenhai sneered: "Who the hell would cooperate with the Dog Federation?"

"Since this thing is so useful, I will definitely cooperate with the Phoenix Society. However..." He patted the container and looked at Lin Xian with a sigh, "We may not be able to deliver this thing to Xilan. In this case, why not give it to you, Brother Lin? If it is useful, it will be our kindness. If not, you can give it to the Phoenix Society in exchange for some supplies, and it will be worth it."

Although Wu Zhenhai was not sure whether this thing was as valuable as the people from the Federation said, he knew that it must be extraordinary. However, he also knew that it was still an unknown whether his convoy could successfully drive into Xilan and find the Phoenix Society to reunite.

From a pragmatic point of view, this thing is really of no use at the moment, so it is better to give it to Lin Xian as a favor. He will feel better after taking Lin Xian's supplies.

The most important thing is that ammunition and supplies are what he urgently needs now. Without these things, he can only survive tonight, but what will he do tomorrow?

Lin Xian's expression was very complicated at this time. He was now 70% to 80% sure that what Wu Zhenhai had in his hand was some kind of blood disaster plant. He had witnessed the magic of the Hell Black Chrysanthemum. The black chrysanthemum played a vital role in the fact that dozens of Infinity people were able to run from Jiazhou City to the present, so Lin Xian certainly knew the value of the blood disaster plant.

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate at all.

"Okay, I'll take it."

After saying this, he paused for a moment, and then continued, "From what I know, this thing is indeed very valuable. How about this, I'll get you some more weapons."

"No, no, no, that's enough." Wu Zhenhai waved his hand: "I'm not here to bargain with you for benefits."

"I know."

Lin Xian turned around and walked towards the Infinity, saying loudly: "So I don't want you to die before dawn."

When he said this, everyone was stunned.

Not long after, four Roarer K23 electric rotary machine guns, three Thunderstorm A1 grenade launchers, twelve M556 light machine guns, nearly three bases of ammunition, and a box of alloy explosives were carried down from the car by Lin Xian's people and neatly placed in front of everyone.

Among them, the Roarer and light machine gun were what Lin Xian directly took from the team. He didn't have the time to make them right now, and the ammunition was partly ready-made and partly made temporarily.

At this time, seeing this scene, many members of the team gathered around with shocked faces.

Liao Ming and others were even more shocked when they saw it.

"Wow." Wu Zhenhai exclaimed, "I've only seen such a lavish arms transport in the army. Brother Lin, are you spending all your wealth on us?"

Lin Xian shook his head: "Don't worry, we still have it."

He looked at Liao Ming and said, "Brother Liao should know that we have a lot of ammunition in our car."

Everyone looked at Liao Ming in unison. Liao Ming also had a complicated expression at this time. He had indeed seen it before. The guns on Lin Xian's Infinity were carried out one by one.

But when Lin Xian asked him this, he was a little speechless and didn't know how to describe it.

"If you share these things, your firepower can be improved to a higher level. The road ahead is full of wind and snow, and the way is unknown. For the sake of the brothers and sisters in your car, don't be polite to me."

"Okay!" Seeing that Liang Lei and Luo Yang looked a little hesitant, Wu Zhenhai stepped forward and said, "Then let's thank Brother Lin for his kindness together and stop being pretentious with you."

"Everyone, make plans, quickly pack the weapons, and prepare the ammunition!"

"yes!"

After a few people discussed it, ammunition and supplies were quickly distributed. Dozens of people rushed up and began to carry supplies into the convoy.

Seeing such a large amount of ammunition, all the members of the convoy were shocked and excited. With the replenishment of ammunition and supplies, everyone can sleep well tonight.

This undoubtedly gave a shot in the arm to the camp's already anxious atmosphere!

"Okay, there are still many things to arrange in the convoy, so we won't talk about it. If there is anything, please communicate through the communicator. We will set off before dawn. If there is a chance, see you in Xilan!" Lin Xian said.

"Okay, thank you Brother Lin." Wu Zhenhai nodded. Their convoy suffered the most casualties and the situation was indeed a bit chaotic at the moment.

"Brother Lin, thank you." Luo Yang said gratefully: "You must take care of yourselves, we will meet at the Dawn Center together!"

"Yeah." Lin Xian nodded.

"Captain Lin." Li Yi was very moved at this moment, and stood up and said: "Thank you, we..."

Lin Xian looked at the couple and interrupted them directly: "There are many children in your team who need your care. There is no need to say anything extra. I hope everything goes well for you."

Liang Lei hugged his wife's shoulders and said to Lin Xian: "Captain Lin, I, Liang Lei, have never admired anyone in my life, and you are one of them!"

"Everyone, take care!"

The cold wind swept across the fields wantonly, without any sense of autumn bleakness, and under the cover of night, it quickly turned into cold winter mode.

Members of the Big Eagle Convoy, the Sun-Chasing Convoy, and the Pao Yuan Camp were busy packing up and returning to their formation. Several leaders began to reorganize the interior and count the wounded. After the ammunition was replenished, everyone's confidence increased a bit.

On the bus, Li Yi and his men began to distribute food to the children.

"Mom Li Yi, the train is so cool!" the little girl said in a childish voice

. "Can we drive with the train?" a little boy asked.

"That's right."

Li Yi smiled and said, "Yes, when we reach Xilan, there will be more and more people in the large group, and there will be trains, cars, and planes~"

"Wow, really? Then we can sleep on the big bed."

"Can."

"Then we will have very clean water to drink?"

"Yes."

"Report, Li Yi's mother, I wish to eat French fries on my birthday~"

"Haha, you're so greedy, you want to eat French fries~"

…

On the Sun-Chasing Team side, a team of young people led by Luo Yang were holding a meeting in an RV.

"Amin, Luo Luo, you guys worked well together today. Da Yuan, remember to collect their exercise data and optimize it~"

The two girls nodded excitedly: "It was thrilling tonight, but we feel that our cooperation is getting better and better."

"Li Guangwen, do you feel your Dust Wave ability has improved? You killed so many monsters tonight."

The boy named Li Guangwen scratched his head and said, "Not bad."

"The guys from the Infinity Team are so awesome."

"That's right, fire-related abilities, telekinesis abilities, damn, Brother Lin can actually use a black hole!!"

Luo Yang's eyes flickered, and he nodded, "Yes, Brother Lin is very powerful."

"Then shall we continue to enter Xilan City as planned?"

"Yes, the plan remains unchanged." Luo Yang calmly took out his mobile terminal, turned on the map on it, and began to plan for everyone: "Now our ammunition has been replenished. Because most of our convoys are low-profile, we must pass through the Yunzhou Mountains quickly, otherwise if the wind and snow are strong, we will be unable to move forward."

The two girls nodded: "From Xilin to Xilan, and then followed the main force of the Phoenix Society?"

Luo Yang nodded: "Yes."

"I hope to meet up with Brother Lin and the others in Xilan!"

…

The Eagle convoy was busy with people, and the deaths of many people made the atmosphere in the convoy a bit depressing.

In a living carriage, a middle-aged woman was busy cooking hot meals and distributing them to the wounded.

There was a little boy next to her who was also helping.

At this time, two team members came over carrying some supplies.

"Mrs. Li."

"I understand." The middle-aged woman's eyes were red, but she never stopped working: "Quick, deliver these foods to the wounded first. It's night now, and we can't let their condition get worse."

When she said this, she suppressed her sobs and said, "Don't let those guys end up like Li Dong..."

The two team members were silent for a moment after hearing this, sighed, and began to help distribute the hot food.

Separation and death happen every day for the fleeing convoy.

In the convoy, Liao Ming helped the wounded while sending a message to Uncle Wu Zhenhai: "Uncle Wu, 6 were killed and 13 were injured. They are all under control now."

"Give the list to Song Li and ask her to take care of the family members in their living quarters."

"Chenchen and his little brats told me that they wanted to join the battle. These guys are really strong now."

On the truck, Wu Zhenhai took a deep breath and said, "None of them are even 14 years old. Tell them to wait until they cross the snowfield. If they are still able, they can help with logistics."
