Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 758 Blocking
After Chen Chuan smelled this smell, he was thoughtful for a moment.

He had heard before that the old imperial family had a kind of scout bird used for tracking in the wild, but this kind of thing was not of much use in large-scale military battles, so it was only briefly mentioned in the information.

According to what he had seen and heard along the way, once the creatures in the Fusion Land lost their ability to resist or turned into corpses, it would be almost impossible for them to survive for long. However, after this bird had fallen for such a while, there were no insects or creatures coming to dismember it.

The surrounding environment was greatly damaged by the insect quicksand, but the ecology of the fusion land recovered quickly, not to mention that there is still a dense forest here.

Therefore, the smell of this thing should have the effect of forcing the creatures in the fusion area to stay away.

This also explains from the side why this thing, which seems to have no fighting ability, can fly so far on its own without being hunted as prey.

Most of the attacks he was trained to guard against were from the ground, and he probably had never thought about the threats from the sky, so he was successfully hit by Chao Ming.

He couldn't help but think that if Chao Ming could also apply this kind of thing on his body, he would be able to fly in the sky without any worries.

But he thought again, this smell might be caused by taking some special drugs, and it is hard to say whether being contaminated by this smell will make him the target of the old imperial family. If so, it is better to stay away from him.

So he turned around, got some dry branches, threw them around, and poured some fire oil he carried with him, and set the scout bird on fire.

This is to destroy the traces of Chao Ming's attack so as to avoid being prepared next time. Of course, the old imperial family will be more cautious after a failure, but as long as they don't know the specific reasons for the time being, they can't come up with anything too targeted.

At this time, the sound of flapping wings was heard, and Chao Ming fell from the sky, raised his body and chirped.

Chen Chuan deliberately did not take Chao Ming with him just now, because he wanted him to follow behind so that he could take advantage of the opportunity to attack the scout bird. Now that the mission was completed very well, he walked up to it, took out a few high-energy nutritious beans and fed them to him as a reward, then patted it and let it continue to fly high in the sky for patrol.

After dealing with the traces below, he made a brief identification and continued to run forward. This time, Chao Ming flew in front of him, guiding him and also responsible for giving him advance warnings.

About two hours later, Chaoming suddenly chirped a few short times above.

Chen Chuan's eyes flashed. This was the chirping signal that he and Chao Ming had agreed upon. Chao Ming must have seen something, but this time he was flying higher, and the small field creature he carried with him could not reach that far, so he could not see what it was.

However, judging from the sound of the calls, the most likely ones are the cavalry, which were the most commonly used troops by the old imperial family. These cavalrymen had a fast advance speed and were more convenient for moving through and gathering in the intersections.

Those who could arrive so quickly must be elite troops.

At this moment, the cavalry team that intercepted Major General Serbil had arrived nearby and stopped when they saw the dense forest in the distance.

At this time, the bird master in charge of the scout bird transmission looked at the birds in the sky and saw that one of them was whistling mournfully. He immediately rode his horse to the front of the young auxiliary general, clasped his hands, and said loudly: "General, we have lost contact with a scout bird ahead."

The young general asked, "But what about the one that's staring at the lost item?"

"No."

The young general said, "That's nothing to worry about."

This time they are responsible for chasing and seizing the lost objects, and the person who protects the lost objects is the one they need to pay the most attention to.

But he did not mean to underestimate the opponent. According to the news from the rear, this time they would be facing an investigation director from the processing bureau, plus several executive team leaders.

Although these people do not seem to be very strong in terms of their normal duties, the fact that they could defeat both the Consortium and the Linax Federation and snatch the things from them is enough to prove that the people sent by the Central City this time are not simple.

And their strength is equally strong. In addition to himself, there is an adjutant with similar strength, three titled warriors, and more than ten elite warriors. Even if they cannot defeat the enemy head-on, they are enough to delay the enemy and drag more elite personnel up.

Of course, as a general leading an elite vanguard, he would rather have his own cavalry capture the item rather than give the credit to other troops.

After a few words, they urged their dragon-nosed horses to gallop again. This time they did not enter the dense forest, but walked along the edge of the forest. Anyway, with the clouds of fallen objects as guidance, they would not lose their target.

At this time, Chen Chuan heard Chao Ming chirp again and suddenly turned to another direction and flew fast. He immediately knew that the enemy must have turned around. He did not rush to move, but called out to Chao Ming, who immediately lowered his figure. When he was within a certain distance, he used the latter's small world to see the situation in the distance. The rolling dust extended to a certain place. This movement confirmed his previous inference.

This is a small-scale cavalry unit, with approximately dozens to more than a hundred people, and there are birds circling overhead.

He thought about it and came up with a plan in his mind. He immediately ran quickly in the direction of the cavalry.

He walked along the edge of the dense forest without increasing his speed too much, but even so, he soon overtook the cavalry and gradually left them behind.

After jumping over a distance, he made sure he was out of the opponent's sight. He looked to the side a few times and saw an undulating terrain in front of him. After running for another distance, he set his sights on a certain area. He quickly ran out of the dense forest and came to a flat rock that seemed to be connected to the ground, and in front of it there was a cracked broken stone.

This place was just right. He came to the crack, clenched his fist and smashed the flat rock. With a bang, large chunks of rubble fell off from it, and a vertical pit appeared there, just big enough for a person to hide.

He turned around and leaned his back against it, and at this moment the convex surface of the rock above was just like an eaves blocking the view. Due to the angle, if the cavalry came from behind, neither the birds in the sky nor he himself would be able to see this place.

He signaled Chao Ming in the sky to move away first, then pulled the Xuejun Sword out of its scabbard, and then took a deep breath. At this time, his breath gradually restrained, and the field was completely blocked, but his spirit was highly concentrated.

The Xuejun Sword sensed his will, and after a humming sound, it slowly calmed down.

Now the alienated tissue inside is equivalent to a part of his body. Once it is swung, it will also increase his strength. As the number of battles and kills increases and his spirit is stimulated, the alienated tissue inside will gradually become denser, so that it can bear more spiritual power.

He waited for a while before he heard the rumbling of horse hooves.
He had not received any special training on how to determine the number of people coming, but his invisible spiritual power could sense many things. In just a split second, he realized that there were about two to three hundred horses coming, and there were about a hundred people riding on them.

So many people gathered together and maintained an almost consistent pace while running at high speed. They are definitely the elite among the elite.

Judging from the time of arrival, they should be heading to intercept their forward.

He waited there quietly with a knife in hand.

After a while, the sounds of the rushing horses gradually approached, making a loud noise in the eardrums, and the ground and the stones behind him were constantly vibrating.

A thunderous sound was heard, and at this time several cavalrymen at the front of the cavalry jumped past him from the side and galloped forward quickly, but obviously none of them had the intention of looking back.

Chen Chuan had no intention of attacking them for the time being. He leaned quietly against the stone. At this moment, he already felt a strong aura coming from behind.

He closed his eyes, and at this moment, based on the field and the vibrations coming from the surroundings, the information displayed by the other party automatically emerged in his mind, including the speed at which he was coming, the weight of the horse and its owner, the knight's height, movement rhythm, and general fighting level.

When the opponent gradually approached, he suddenly opened his eyes, leaped forward, then stepped on the big rock opposite, and kicked again. As the big rock exploded with a bang, he broke through the air with a bang and rushed towards the target like a cannonball!
The pupils in the young general's metal mask suddenly dilated. His reaction was quick. Under the extremely dangerous stimulation, he entered an explosive state in an instant. Not only did all the alienated tissues in his body spread to the surface of his body, but the spear in his hand also burst out with a ray of light, which he raised in time to block in front.

Chen Chuan was already close by then, and the long sword he had placed drew a semicircular arc, and suddenly swung forward to make a big diagonal slash!

In an instant, the gun and the sword collided, and the light on both sides disappeared in an instant, but until the light on the gun disappeared, the light on the sword was still eye-catching.

At this moment, the young general's gaze met a pair of deep and calm eyes.

The next moment, the dragon-nosed horse under him let out a whine, and its bones made a cracking sound. Then it collapsed to the ground, and his feet slipped out of the stirrups and landed on the ground to one side.

He held the spear in his hand tilted to one side, staring at the figure standing still in front of him. In the billowing smoke and dust, only a red scarf was fluttering, and the surrounding cavalrymen rushed past from both sides.

After a while, with a click, his helmet and mask split apart and fell to the ground, revealing a pale young face, and a blood mark appeared between his eyebrows. After another moment, his whole body leaned forward and fell into the dust with a bang.
