Chapter 408 Let's wait one more day.
I checked out the location of the tour guide flag.
It is approximately 400 kilometers to the southwest.
At Nirvana's speed, it would take about two days to complete.
However, Xu Si has not yet tried Nirvana's flight ability.
This is a good opportunity to give it a try.
Xu Si thought for a long time, considering all sorts of things, including mechs, aircraft, and fighter jets.
Ultimately, I chose to keep it low-key.
He transformed Nirvana into the Heavenly Sword, which he knew best.
Then, sitting cross-legged on a large, door-like sword, it flew towards the direction of the convoy.
Nirvana's flight speed was faster than he had anticipated.
The landforms changed from wasteland to hills, from hills to valleys, and then from valleys to a cracked saline-alkali land.
The withered vegetation, the gray skeletons, and the scattered ruins all rushed past beneath my feet, like a post-apocalyptic documentary that had been fast-forwarded.
The wind blew in from the front, filtering through all the scenery.
Yi Yi is still asleep deep in her heart; the ascension to royal bloodline has consumed too much of her energy.
Xu Si could feel her steady breathing, like a small, warm heart beating quietly deep within his consciousness.
Occasionally, she would turn over, let out a muffled murmur, and then fall back into a deep sleep.
Xu Si did not disturb her.
His gaze fell to the southwest, and the perception of the [Guide Flag] was as clear in his mind as a guiding light.
Four hundred kilometers, three hundred and fifty kilometers, three hundred kilometers—the distance was rapidly decreasing, but the convoy's direction changed during this time, as if it had encountered some kind of situation.
Xu Si frowned slightly, but did not deliberately speed up.
This speed is already Nirvana's limit. It would be feasible to let him use sequence energy to accelerate Nirvana.
However, he has just been promoted to Sequence 6, and his condition is not stable.
Excessive consumption can make it very difficult to deal with unexpected situations.
"Hopefully it's Little Karami!"
Despite saying that, Xu Si still exerted a little more force and increased his speed.
Meanwhile, at the Xinhuo train convoy camp.
The blood-red sun had turned the camp a dark crimson, where they had been staying for quite some time.
Fu Xiaojian stood beside the Mengshi vehicle, looking back at the road he had come from, his brows furrowed in a deep knot.
He had been in this position for a long time, so long that Shao Bing couldn't help but come over and hand him half a pot of water.
"Have a drink."
Fu Xiaojian took the drink but didn't drink it. His gaze swept across the edge of the camp to the desolate wasteland to the northeast.
"It's been five days!" he said, the meaning of which was self-evident.
Fu Xiaojian remained silent.
He knew who Shao Bing was talking about.
Five days ago, Xu Si chased after Fan Wanwan and left the camp, and then never came back.
On the first day, everyone thought he would be back soon—after all, that was Xu Si, the strongest fighter in the caravan, capable of killing level five strange beings.
The next day, Fu Xiaojian had Ya Ya search the air for a whole day, but they found nothing.
On the third day, Xiao Luo's spiritual senses had reached their limit, and he bled from his nose several times, but still found nothing.
On the fourth day, Fu Xiaojian ordered the camp to be broken up.
These past two days, he's been traveling and stopping frequently, and he knows that Fu Xiaojian is still waiting for that person.
"Captain Fu, let's wait a little longer! Xiao Luo..." Jiao Jiao has been giving Xiao Luo healing treatments almost non-stop for the past two days.
Only when Xiao Luo recovers can he cast the "Spiritual Barrier," allowing the convoy to remain stationary.
However, Ronaldinho's own recovery speed is ultimately limited.
The two turned around and saw the little girl standing a few steps away, her eyes almost pleading.
Behind Jiao Jiao, Xiao Luo's eyes also held a pleading look.
You can see that he's not in good shape, but he clearly wants to keep going.
Fu Xiaojian looked into the two pairs of eyes in front of him, which were filled with stubbornness and unwillingness.
"Can you still hold on?" he finally asked.
Jiao Jiao and Xiao Luo both smiled broadly.
Xiao Luo nodded vigorously.
Everyone else in the camp stopped what they were doing and turned their gazes toward this place, some openly and some secretly.
"Old Fu." Shao Bing seemed to want to say something.
"Let's wait one more day," Fu Xiaojian said, turning to look at him.
"Alright! Then our previous plans will probably have to be postponed!" Shao Bing sighed.
"It's alright, the Brightness Team won't reunite in just a day or two anyway!"
They can afford to waste a day.
The reason they changed course was because of the announcement at noon.
The Bright Car Team actually launched the shelter plan ahead of schedule.
The signal sent by the advanced artifact [Apollo] allowed other caravans to locate the position of the Light Caravan.
The goals of the Xinhuo Train Team and the Guangming Train Team coincided.
That's why they turned and headed toward the shelter that the Lightbringer was building.
Xu Si sat cross-legged on a large sword that resembled a door panel. The blood-red sun shone obliquely in front of him, casting his shadow on the ground below, like a giant bird soaring through the sky.
He stared at the direction indicated by the tour guide flag, his brows furrowing slightly.
The convoy stopped again, and remained stationary.
It's neither noon nor evening now, far too early for a rest.
Could it be that they've encountered some kind of danger?
Xu Si couldn't help but speed up a bit.
The star's core is continuously supplying energy to the body.
This feels much better than before.
As the sun dipped westward, the colors on the wasteland gradually changed from dark red to deep purple, and then sank into inky black.
The moment the stars took over the sky, Xu Si finally saw the outline of the distant camp.
The silhouettes of several vehicles appeared and disappeared in the night, their warm lights glowing as faintly as fireflies.
There was no campfire, no noise; the entire camp was as quiet as a tombstone forgotten in the wilderness.
"It's Brother Dao! Brother Dao is here!"
The sausage-grilled animal was the first to hear the commotion in the distance, and it was so excited that it forgot everyone else had already gone to sleep.
Almost instantly, the camp, where people were resting, erupted into chaos.
Then there's Ronaldinho.
He huddled in the back of the Hummer, his spiritual touch like an invisible net reaching out towards the direction Xu Si might appear.
Finally, at the edge of the net, a familiar scent was detected—that unique energy fluctuation, carrying the scent of starlight, was rapidly approaching.
"Brother Dao is back!" His voice exploded in the shared spiritual connection, sweeping away all his previous fatigue.
The camp seemed to have had a play button pressed.
The sound of car doors opening echoed one after another, mixed with footsteps, voices, and suppressed gasps.
"I knew the knife was okay! I knew it!"
Tashan was the first to jump out of the bus, his honest face filled with an almost fanatical anticipation.
Almost instantly, his figure grew larger against the wind, and he reached out to look into the distance, able to see far from his height.
However, even with the help of starlight, he couldn't see anything.
"Red Hair... Is it really Red Hair?" Jiao Jiao crawled out of the tank. She was in such a hurry that her head hit the door frame. Ignoring the pain, she stood on tiptoe and looked towards the northeast.
Fu Ruoxue followed behind her, her gaze also fixed on the sky swallowed by the night.
She was also very curious as to why Xu Si was able to come back after five days.
According to their previous speculation, wasn't this the best time to part ways?
What could be so important that it could delay him for five days?
Su Su stood on the roof of the car, wisps of celestial mist swaying gently in the night breeze, her dark golden eyes slightly narrowed as she gazed at the horizon.
"It's him," she said with certainty.
Fu Xiaojian stood beside the Mengshi vehicle, his hand resting on the window, a relieved smile on his face.
