Chapter 1223 - An Engine Oil Leak
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Alas, they seemed to have forgotten that the girl's car was just like theirs. The jeep was modified into a bulletproof one, so their bullets failed to inflict any damage against it.
Mu Yichen sped up and turned quickly.
Lisa continued to floor the gas pedal, clearly not thinking about stopping the car as she drove it toward the cliff!
With a pong, both vehicles crashed through the barricade.
Just as the car was in the air, the girl kicked its door open instantly and landed on the ground nimbly.
The two jeeps flew in the sky for several meters before crashing down the cliff.
This cliff was extremely high. It was not an exaggeration to say that one would end up with a torn body and crushed bones from a fall like this.
A few seconds later, a ground-shaking explosion was heard from the depths of the cliff; the blaze turned the valley completely white for a split second.
The explosion was ear-shattering, resounding across the entire valley.
She stood by the cliff's edge with her black hair dancing in the strong winds. Despite being covered in blood, her presence did not diminish in the slightest bit.
The older boy stopped the car by the mountain before getting down; his hand was damp with cold sweat.
An actual battle was incomparable to simulations. It was a lot crueler as well.
In simulations, there was a chance to fix things if something went wrong.
However, in actual battles, a wrong choice in a spur of a moment could lead to bloody consequences.
The twins alighted from the car and dashed toward Lisa. With her bloody appearance, they shockingly wondered if she had sustained any injuries.
"A-Are you okay?" Mu Yichen asked concernedly, his face filled with eagerness.
The girl glanced at him, but her lips remained taut and cold.
"I'm still alive."
With a concise and comprehensive statement, she walked expressionlessly toward the car.
…
Her style of talking is really cool… the boy muttered inwardly.
This little girl's capability really should not be underestimated!
He… had placed his trust in the right person!
As the girl walked to the front of the car and was about to get in, her sharp ears picked up a faint and strange sound.
She bent her body, only to see a pool of oil splattered on the ground.
During the urgent turn earlier, Mu Yichen had bumped into a few rocks on the ground, which damaged the car's oil tank.
She knitted her brows slightly. With the oil tank leaking, it seemed that this car could no longer be used to drive.
She took out the equipment and her combat bag from the car before turning around and saying, "Follow me!"
"Okay." Youyou followed after instantly.
The older one caught up to them. "What's wrong? The car can't be used?"
"Yes. The oil is leaking."
"There's an oil leak?"
He was stunned. Thinking back, it seemed that he had accidentally hit a few large rocks in a state of panic. Those rocks were sharp; thus, the oil tank had been damaged.
"What do we do now?"
"We'll walk back."
She lifted her head and used her thumb to gesture to the Big Dipper1 in the night sky. Thereafter, she pointed a distance away and said, "North is that way. If we keep heading north, we can reunite with the troops."
He nodded.
The mountain roads appeared to be leading toward the west. To reach their assembly location, they must pass through the thick jungle.
If there were no more incidents, they could make it at the crack of dawn.
The girl turned around to look at Youyou. "Can you walk?"
"Yes, I can."
She then turned her head back and proceeded to march forward.
Mu Yichen felt that he had been given a cold shoulder.
Why did she not ask if he could walk as well? They were now comrades, after all!
