Escape separately.蒒
In fact, after making this decision, Zhou Li knew that he would definitely not be able to escape.
If an outsider looked at it, Zhou Li's decision was to let Eluma, a weak girl, delay the monster's time and buy herself time to escape.
But only Zhou Li knew that this goddess named Eluma...
Running really fast.
When they first traveled through time, the total money Zhou Li and Eluma had was only ten silver coins, or one thousand yuan. Once, they needed to go through a grassland to a mountain peak to pick herbs. This distance is very long, so you have to take a horse-drawn carriage. But if they take a carriage, they have less money than one person.
Eluma then presented her idea.
"It's okay, I'll just run over."
Eluma's expression at that time was just three words, it didn't matter. It seems as if those hundreds of kilometers are just two steps away. But at that time, Zhou Li directly expressed his euphemistic denial, and reminded her that maybe the human world is a place without teleportation, and running hundreds of kilometers may not be realistic.
Then, under Zhou Li's shocked gaze, Eluma transformed into a horse racing lady, followed the carriage with an elegant and noble posture, and easily outran the two BMWs until she almost vomited blood from exhaustion.
At that time, when the two bay-red horses with dragon blood discovered that there was a human being following behind them, they ignored it and wanted to speed up casually and get rid of the woman.
Then they discovered to their horror that this weak-looking female human could run faster than them and had greater endurance than them.
Later, Zhou Li learned that Eluma's abilities were boundless speed and endless physical strength.
All in all, it's outrageous.
Therefore, in this decision, Zhou Li chose to escape separately without hesitation. In addition to letting him know that a head-on confrontation with this crystal-covered monster would lead to death, the brief exchange just now also showed that this monster's reaction and speed seemed a bit slow.蒒
Perhaps because it had just woken up, or perhaps because it had replenished too little physical strength, the monster's speed and reactions were obviously a little sluggish. Therefore, as long as Zhou Li and Eluma escape separately, no matter who the monster chases, it will give the other party a chance to escape.
Of course, the most likely possibility is that the monster realizes that it cannot catch up with Eluma, and then it will catch up with Zhou Li, kill him and eat him.
It is not a hero saving a beauty, nor is it the so-called love and care of God. Zhou Li shouted this subconsciously, simply because he didn't want to put Eluma in danger. In fact, from the beginning of time travel, he had an inexplicable affection for the woman in front of him. It was a hazy affection that he could not ignore.
It is not the love between men and women, but a more pure emotion.
Therefore, Zhou Li chose this escape method with a lower chance of survival.
Of course, this is not a fatal outcome. Eluma ran fast. As long as she could find a border outpost only three kilometers away, Tariq's soldiers would be able to kill the monster.
After pointing out the direction of the outpost to Eluma, Zhou Li ran directly in the opposite direction. Eluma also chose to run after a brief hesitation to give the two of them a chance to survive.蒒
Zhou Li's choice was right.
The Tariq border post at that time was only half a kilometer away from the incident site. After running for less than ten minutes, Eluma contacted the local sentinel. The one who was standing guard at that time happened to be Princess Tia who was voluntarily training herself.
Just when Zhou Li was about to have his head bitten to pieces by the strange smell of breathing behind him, Tiya's light tore the terrifying crystal ghost into pieces, bringing this somewhat absurd attack to a complete end.
At that time, both Zhou Li and Eluma expressed their gratitude to Tiya, but Tiya just shook her head solemnly, and then reported the matter to her superiors. Later, Zhou Li and Eluma were "invited" to a facility by the Tariq government for questioning.
The kind that gives money.
During that inquiry, Zhou Li learned that the monster's name was Jinggui, and it was a strange disease. Tariq people are infected with this
After getting sick, if you don't get timely treatment, you will be controlled by the weird crystals in your brain. Eventually, your whole body will be covered with crystals, and you will become a monster who only knows how to kill.
This kind of crystal monster is extremely powerful. Most of the time, these monsters can compete with gold, platinum and even brilliant level professionals. As a silver-level professional, Zhou Li encountered a platinum-level Jinggui.蒒
According to common sense, this crystal trick should kill both Eluma and Zhou Li within fifteen seconds. After all, the gap between the two is too big, but Zhou Liming's good news is that this Jingwei was actually just infected, and there was still a participating human consciousness in his body. Therefore, while chasing them, this crystal monster kept fighting with itself in its mind, giving Zhou Li a chance to survive.
"This crystal monster has been killed now."
After walking out of the facility, Tiya, who had been waiting for a long time, handed a money ticket to Zhou Li, and then said to him: "Don't worry, he will never threaten you again. This Jingwei was our focus before. Later, he escaped, so it is our responsibility. This is compensation for you, please accept it."
Zhou Li was unambiguous and accepted the compensation directly. Then he looked at Tiya and asked with some confusion: "I heard them say that there seems to be human consciousness in this crystal."
"Yes, he mutated not long ago."
Sighing, Tia said with some seriousness: "The name of this Jinggui is [John Jones], and he is a cowboy in the West. It seems that his child was infected with mineral sickness, and he was injured later while looking for medicine. , was also infected with ore disease in the end, injured his companions, left the west, and fled into the surrounding border forests."
After hearing Tiya's description, Zhou Li fell silent. Eluma on the side seemed to feel his heavy mood, gently tugged on his sleeve, and gave him a worried look.蒒
"I'm fine."
Zhou Li shook his head, forced a smile and said, "I just feel a little uncomfortable."
On December 12, 2022, I, Zhou Li, traveled to a different world.
It is now the third month and seven days.
This world is cruel.
Peace here is very precious, and war and weirdness are the mainstream of this world. Your friend may have been chatting and laughing with you one day, and then die silently the next day due to inexplicable events.
In this world, death is the norm.蒒
I'm not used to it, really not used to it.
I'm just an ordinary person, an ordinary person on earth. I don't understand why it must be me.
I don’t want to be this brave man.
