Chapter 9 The Line of Life and Death
Under the violent explosion just now, An Yan was not dead yet!
His body was covered with burning and torn wounds, and almost no inch of his intact skin. The biological bombs transformed by the poisonous bee from purple smoke did not take his life at such a close distance.
Not only that, there was still flesh and blood in the dark flame's wounds squirming, slowly repairing the wounds.
His handsome face was completely distorted. He stared at Zi Yan and Jiang Xiao tightly, and walked towards them step by step, but the speed was speeding up little by little.
The distance between the three was only about fifty meters. At the speed of the Anyan, it could be in front of the two of them in just one minute.
"Is this guy... a monster?"
The explosion of the air wave just now, even Jiang Xiao in the distance was shocked to stand unsteadily, so he naturally knew how powerful it was. He thought that An Yan had died in the explosion, but he did not expect that he was still alive and had not given up on his pursuit of Zi Yan!
"Hurry up... go!" Zi Yan shouted softly at the stunned Jiang Xiao: "What are you waiting for? Are you waiting for when he comes over and killing both of us!"
Jiang Xiao naturally knew in his heart that since An Yan chose to set up an ambush to assassinate Zi Yan, he would definitely not let Zi Yan go. After witnessing all this, no matter what his identity was, An Yan would definitely kill him to silence him, minimizing the possibility of the leak of this news.
"Don't run!"
Jiang Xiao picked up Zi Yan and was about to turn around and run away, but the Anyan behind him picked up a broken branch from the ground, then twisted his body into a bent bow, bounced out all the strength of his body and flew towards Jiang Xiao with force.
The branch cut through the sky, like a javelin, piercing Jiang Xiao's back. Although Jiang Xiao tried his best to dodge, he still couldn't completely dodge. With a scream, his thigh was pierced heavily, and blood was splashed, and the branch was nailed to the ground.
The purple smoke in his arms was also thrown heavily to the ground.
After throwing out the branch, An Yan stopped and squatted on the ground and gasped heavily. The injuries just now were indeed too serious, so that after he used all his strength to throw out the branch, he didn't even have the strength to walk.
Jiang Xiao endured the pain in his thighs and looked up at An Yan. He saw that although he was panting and squatting on the ground, he was obviously recovering his strength little by little. If he didn't escape, he was afraid that An Yan would be able to chase him soon.
But the injury on his thigh was too serious. The branch was still firmly inserted into the gaps in his muscles until now. Not to mention running away with Zi Yan on his back, even if he was letting him stand firmly now, it was a luxury. Jiang Xiao tried to stand up, but as soon as he exerted his force, he sat down on the ground depressedly.
"This little injury..." Zi Yan gritted her teeth, raised her head and glared at Jiang Xiao, suddenly stretched out her right hand and held it at the end of the branch: "Hold it down!"
"ah!!"
Jiang Xiao screamed, and before he even had time to stop him, he saw that the branch on his right leg had been pulled out by Zi Yan, bringing out a series of blood, which was still dripping downwards.
"Believe in yourself! Even if you haven't fully awakened, you still have Neanderthal blood! Stand up!" Zi Yan said to Jiang Xiao with a hoarse voice: "You can do it!"
Jiang Xiao also put his heart on his mind, looked up at the struggle to stand up, staggering step by step, and An Yan, who was as ferocious as an evil ghost, gritted his teeth and grabbed Zi Yan and carried it on his shoulder. Zi Yan was already slim, and with a lack of an arm, it was not much weight. If it were Jiang Xiao who was usually on weekdays, it would not be too much burden to carry her. But at this moment, he was seriously injured in his right leg, and suddenly pressed his shoulder, and he groaned, and the wound on his leg hurt a lot, and he almost knelt on the ground.
"Take a deep breath and focus your mind on your legs, which can speed up your recovery. No matter what level the awakened person is, he has a certain ability to recover, but it is just a difference in speed." Zi Yan said weakly on Jiang Xiao's shoulder.
Jiang Xiao tried his best to stabilize his breathing and mood. Follow Zi Yan's guidance, he focused his thoughts on the wound on his legs, and walked step by step into the woods. At first, every step he took, a heart-wrenching pain came from his legs, but gradually, he walked down step by step, and the wound no longer bleeded, and even a numb and itchy feeling came.
Is this... the ability of the awakened person?
But according to what Zi Yan said, I have not been fully awakened!
But it was not the time for Jiang Xiao to slowly think. The heavy footsteps behind him were still coming. Although An Yan was seriously injured, he did not die immediately and was still recovering slowly. His footsteps were also accelerating little by little.
"Zi Yan! Do you think you can run away? And that boy! You all have to die! You all have to die!" An Yan's hoarse voice came from behind, with a viciousness that could be seen from the bones.
Jiang Xiao carried Zi Yan on his back and walked hard, heading down the mountain. His car parked at the foot of the mountain. As long as he could get in, the chance of escape would be much greater.
Although the severe pain on his legs had not subsided, it was gradually slowing down and Jiang Xiao got used to it a little bit. Although the first few dozen steps were still extremely difficult, Jiang Xiao soon increased his speed and left the dark flame behind him for a distance. Under the obstruction of the dense forest, he was temporarily unable to see him.
But...even if you escape from the hands of An Yan, what should you do afterwards?
"No need... don't worry..." Zi Yan behind Jiang Xiao seemed to see his thoughts and whispered: "An Yan's action was not the dean's order, but he... just an act he took without authorization when he wanted to get something from me. Or rather, he betrayed the college. As long as I can survive tonight and report the situation, An Yan will definitely be punished by the college."
As he said that, Zi Yan smiled bitterly again: "It's a pity that the communication device was damaged when they were attacked by them. Otherwise, now... the academy would have known An Yan's betrayal."
Jiang Xiao remembered the headphones that popped out of the watch when Zi Yan answered the call from the Anyan. But now Zi Yan's left hand has disappeared shoulder-length, so where can I find any watch?
"Then what will happen next?" Jiang Xiao asked as he strode down the mountain and faced Zi Yan behind him.
"You? It won't be any different from before." Zi Yan gasped twice: "We will continue to list you as the subject of observation, invite you to join in at the appropriate time, and... you will have the right to refuse."
Zi Yan coughed twice and continued with a wry smile: "Believe me, all this you see tonight does not represent the image of...the academy."
"Is that right..." Jiang Xiao murmured in his heart, sneering at him.
Is a person who was almost assassinated by his colleagues qualified to say such things?
But of course he wouldn't be so stupid that he would say this kind of complaint. At least so far, Zi Yan and him are still grasshoppers on the same rope. It's not certain whether they can survive tonight's pursuit of An Yan tonight.
"Then will you... die?" Jiang Xiao ran and looked back at the back, and there was still darkness, without the shadow of Dark Flame, and there was no movement. But Zi Yan behind him looked a little worried.
Just now, Jiang Xiao could see clearly that An Yan's fist had two big holes pierced through Zi Yan's body. If it were an ordinary person, he would probably have given up ten lives.
"Although it may take a long recovery period, it won't take my life. Because my rank ability is to control cells, my recovery ability for injuries will be much stronger than other awakened people. However, if I am caught up with Dark Flame again..."
"What exactly is the rank you mentioned?" Jiang Xiao asked, "I heard you mention civilians, craftsmen, soldiers, etc. You are craftsmen, and Anyan... are soldiers, so what is the difference between you?"
"The rank... is the class that every Neanderthal has been a fixed member since its birth, and will not change in life afterwards... and depending on the rank, they will have different abilities... But... I don't have time to tell you about this kind of thing now... The more important thing is to live..." Zi Yan's voice was weak, and the two big holes that Dan Yan had just opened in her torso. Although she did not lose too much blood, it still caused huge damage. Even with Zi Yan's recovery ability, it would not be possible to recover immediately in a short period of time.
"Okay..." Jiang Xiao also knew that it was not the time to ask more questions, so he struggled to carry Ziyan and strode towards the foot of the mountain.
When he went up the mountain, Jiang Xiao walked up leisurely and leisurely. At this moment, he ran with all his might. Although he was carrying a purple smoke on his back, it was still much faster than before. Although the wound on his thigh was still tingling, the pain was much less severe than before.
After running at full speed, Jiang Xiao was surprised to find that his physical strength and speed had improved greatly from the beginning. His original physical fitness was only the level of an ordinary sports enthusiast, but it took less than ten minutes to run the journey that had been completed in half an hour, and he vaguely saw the foot of the mountain.
"Just... I'm almost at the foot of the mountain. My car... parked there. After getting on the car... where are you going?" Jiang Xiao gasped slightly and asked Zi Yan behind him.
"First... go to the city to find a place to hide..." Zi Yan's weak voice was slightly better than before: "I may know my three residences, An Yan, and I cannot fall into the trap. As long as I avoid his pursuit tonight, I can report to the dean."
"Okay." Jiang Xiao nodded and made the final sprint. Soon, the mountain road was over, and his Tesla parked on the side of the road appeared in his sight.
"Here!" Jiang Xiao was just delighted, but suddenly heard an angry roar behind him, accompanied by the sound of trees falling.
He looked back in horror and saw that An Yan Yan's tall figure had appeared behind him, and his posture at this moment was actually running wildly!
"You can't escape! Damn things!" Although the wounds on An Yan's body were still densely covered with all his body, they were much less and much shallower than before. Although his speed of running at this time was far from comparable to his heyday, he was far faster than Jiang Xiao carrying a purple smoke.
At this moment, the distance between the two was only more than one hundred meters. Jiang Xiao was almost the same distance from his car.
If he was caught up by An Yan, a half-dead Zi Yan and Jiang Xiao who had not yet fully awakened, facing An Yan, who had shown his combat power to the fullest, the result could naturally be imagined. Even though An Yan's injuries must have not fully recovered, Jiang Xiao would never intend to use his life to make a try.
Run wildly! Run wildly! Run wildly! The roar of Dark Flame behind him is getting closer and closer, and Jiang Xiao's heart is beating faster and faster.
He didn't dare to look back, for fear that as long as he turned around, he could see An Yan's hideous face.
There are also...ten meters...five meters!
Jiang Xiao had already rushed to his car. Tesla, which had a keyless start, directly opened the door and pressed the button to escape!
Jiang Xiao believed that no matter how fast Anyan was, he would never be able to catch up with the speed of the car.
But just as Jiang Xiao's fingertips had already touched the car door handle, he also heard a roar coming from behind his head.
"Die!"
A powerful force suddenly came from behind. Jiang Xiao felt the sky in front of him spinning, being lifted away heavily, rolling to the side, and then falling heavily. There was a pain in his chest, afraid that two or three ribs would be broken.
And Ziyan...
Zi Yan was already seriously injured, but now she has suffered the main force of the Dark Flame attack. A burst of blood squirted from her cherry lips and fell to the ground with Jiang Xiao.
At this moment, the two of them were hit by the force and flew across the long street, and were more than ten meters away from Jiang Xiao's car.
"Tell me the location of the seed before you die! This time, you will not be given another chance to escape!"
An Yan walked towards the two of them step by step, his muscles were as strong as sculptures on his naked body.
Next to the two were half a thick tree trunk, rolling across the ground.
Although An Yan didn't have time to catch up with the two, he finally chased him enough to break a tree trunk and then hit the distance between them.
"Damn..."
Jiang Xiao looked at Tesla opposite the street. He was obviously close to him, but he had no chance to take advantage of it and escape.
Chapter completed!
