Atlas of Heaven and Man

On the side of Fortress 73, Advisor Rao barely slept a wink all night. When he received the message from Chen Chuan and the others early in the morning, he murmured, "It seems they're really okay..."

Then he breathed a great sigh of relief. After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth, went to the radio, and activated a secret channel, one that led to the intelligence war room.

He sent a telegram there: "Requesting to initiate intelligence deception."

After a while, a simple reply came from the other side: "Confirm?"

Advisor Rao paused his hand for a moment, then immediately pressed a series of reply signals:

"Confirm!"

Beside a stream on the mountainside, the mounted warrior responsible for reconnaissance and communication reported the news and quickly left.

The duty-bound samurai came close to the Iron Demon and reported, "Captain, the squad chasing us spent the night outside yesterday. They have a way to resist the abnormal intrusions in the night. I suggest we eliminate them as soon as possible."

The Iron Demon, sitting upright on his horse, didn't respond immediately. After a while, a voice came from behind the mask: "Keep them dangling for another day or two. If they can still follow us, then we'll move out."

The duty-bound samurai said, "But what if they can continue to follow us? Then we can only keep evading and can't do anything. Moreover, if we don't take this opportunity to eliminate them as soon as possible, our rear will always be unstable."

It was precisely the advantage of marching in the dark that allowed them to roam freely on this land. Even a single squad could disrupt a large area of the enemy's rear.

However, the changing situation had forced him to make a decision.

He said, "Order the entire team to mount up and depart in ten minutes."

"Yes!"

Dozens of cavalrymen received the order, immediately sorted out their equipment, and inspected each other. Just a few minutes later, they were all mounted and galloping towards the location of Chen Chuan and his group.

In front of the off-road vehicle, Qin Qingque received the telegram, held it up with both hands, and handed it to Chen Chuan, "Captain, a telegram from Advisor Rao, please take a look."

Chen Chuan took it over, "Intelligence deception, huh..."

His mind raced. The Iron Demon must have an inside line, otherwise he wouldn't dare to shuttle back and forth in their rear like this.

And this intelligence deception said that there were another two squads rapidly approaching them. When the Iron Demon's side learned of this news, there would only be one reaction.

He raised his head, met the eyes of the two people looking at him, and said, "Get ready. If there are no accidents, the Iron Demon will come looking for us later."

Yuan Qiuyuan's spirits were greatly lifted, and he said eagerly, "Captain, are we just waiting here?"

Chen Chuan said, "No, since they're coming to find us, we can't let them be too comfortable. Let's change locations and set up a bit."

Qin Qingque immediately said, "Captain, there's a place we passed by earlier that I think is quite suitable."

"Okay, let's go to the place you mentioned."

The three of them tidied up a bit and walked towards the off-road vehicle. Just at this moment, suddenly a long spear flew through the air, falling towards them.

Yuan Qiuyuan suddenly turned back and grabbed the thrown spear in one fell swoop. His arm remained steady, only the spear shaft was trembling there. He raised an eyebrow. He could feel that the person who threw the spear was at least two miles away, but he couldn't see where the person was because of the dense forest in the distance.

Chen Chuan didn't even turn his head, and walked calmly into the car. Qin Qingque also didn't care, and went directly to the driver's seat and sat down.

Yuan Qiuyuan turned the spear in his hand, then broke it in two with both hands, throwing the broken shaft on the ground, then somersaulted and jumped into the car through the opening above the roof, and then grabbed the machine gun on top.

If any cavalrymen were to chase close at this time, he would sweep them with a burst.

The off-road vehicle quickly started and drove in a certain direction.

Chen Chuan sat in the seat, thinking about one thing in his mind.

He had been wondering all along, what exactly was the Iron Demon's perception of danger? He believed that it was likely a manifestation of a spirit honed to near perfection.

Of course, it might also be the special ability of a demon, due to the lack of information, it was still not easy to determine now.

But this seemed very difficult to deal with, as if he could always avoid danger.

But he believed that even a spiritual warning always needed an object. The problem with the other party's retreat that night might have been with himself.

So after he came out of the fortress, he merged with his second self, transferring away all external intrusions and various strange fields.

Whether it was useful or not, he would try it first.

After driving for more than two hours, the off-road vehicle came to an open area. This was a place near a river, the river was rushing and turbulent, and the surrounding area was unobstructed.

Moreover, near the river was a large area of ​​soft mud, which was nothing to a martial artist, but it was completely different for heavy horses.

This could effectively prevent the rapid charge of cavalry, and with the wide river behind them, it could also prevent the opponent from outflanking them from behind.

In fact, the charge of ordinary cavalry was meaningless to them. Those horses were not as fast as they could move in an instant, but would only expose more flaws to them, and the machine gun on the roof of their car was not just for show.

It's just that these dragon-nosed horses were modified with implants, and they were also ridden by martial artists, so they might have some special characteristics, so they would rather be conservative in their tactical choices.

After the three of them parked the car steadily, they used tools to make some simple arrangements outside, and then began to make pre-war adjustments.

Yuan Qiuyuan took out his telescopic long stick, walked to the side, took out a cloth towel and wiped it there, then stood there with the stick, slightly closed his eyes, as if he was practicing some kind of breathing technique.

His appearance didn't show any tension, but his spirit was tense. On the other hand, Qin Qingque was a little different, instead she was in a relaxed state, as if she was used to this situation long ago.

However, more than half an hour later, the shadows of scattered horses appeared in front, and then gradually increased, but they stopped seven or eight miles away.

After Chen Chuan saw it, he got out of the car, tidied up his uniform slightly, put on the mask, straightened his peaked cap, and walked slowly to the front with the Snow Monarch Saber.

Yuan Qiuyuan came to his left hand side at this time, opened his feet, held the long stick horizontally, and stood there steadily.

Qin Qingque took a red tasseled spear and stood to Chen Chuan's right. Then she stuck the spear into the ground, took off the javelin gun from her back, raised the muzzle and aimed it at the front.

The people in the cavalry team seemed to be observing them. After a while, the cavalry team split up, with two teams detouring far to both sides, leaving only one team in the middle.

Three knights stood out from the crowd of cavalrymen, about ten meters apart from each other, and slowly drove their horses forward in a pyramid shape. When they reached a distance of about 500 meters, the three of them got off their horses and walked towards them.

They didn't choose to fight on horseback, because once a third-level martial artist moved, the speed of the horses was just a joke, and they could easily avoid them in the open, let alone here was a soft land.

However, they didn't rely on these in the first place. The squads that had been surrounded and killed before all tried to behead the third-level martial artist first, and then eliminate the remaining people.

Of course, usually the other party also had this intention. It's just that so far, they have never lost.

The two duty-bound samurai walking next to the Iron Demon had great confidence in him, because their captain's spirit and body had been honed to near perfection, and after experiencing that kind of transformation, he could not be regarded as a simple person. The potential he could exert was far beyond the definition of a person.

If the other party did not understand this point, then they were destined to have the same ending as those who chased them before.

Chen Chuan stared at the person in the middle. This person was almost indistinguishable from the one in the photo, wearing heavy armor and covered with a stab-proof robe. He should be the Iron Demon.

This person was estimated to be more than 1.9 meters tall, with blood-red eyes behind the mask, and a strong bloody smell seemed to be lingering around him.

The two people behind him were both over two meters tall, holding long spears in their hands and five javelins inserted behind their backs. When they walked over, their breathing and body rhythm were consistent, which showed that they had a very high degree of understanding with each other.

Qin Qingque raised her gun at this time, and shot at the person on the right side of the Iron Demon. When the other person saw her action, he immediately raised his hand to cover his face. After a gunshot, his body shook slightly, but his pace did not stop because of this.

She didn't stop, and shot another person among the three, and that person made the same defensive action.

Next, the sound of gunshots kept ringing in the wilderness, and bullets kept hitting the three of them. After emptying the magazine, she quickly replaced the magazine and continued to shoot.

But the three people didn't care about the bullets hitting them, just kept their original rhythm and walked forward silently.

In the continuous sound of gunshots, the three people gradually approached to a distance of 200 meters. At this time, one of the people behind the Iron Demon suddenly took down the long spear from his back, and then threw it violently towards this side.

The landing point of his javelin was exactly where Chen Chuan was!
