Chapter 120: Car Theft
Wei Dalei had always kept his distance from the edge of the slope. His fear of heights had not improved despite his special abilities. Even with his current physical fitness, he knew that there wouldn't be any problem even if he fell.
In this regard, Chen Mumo understood Wei Dalei very well. After all, this guy could almost faint while playing games just because his in-game character jumped off a building.
"What's going on with the cars?" Wei Dalei only listened to what He Ying and the others were saying without seeing the situation below.
"Just follow me," Chen Mumo replied.
"I'm coming too," He Ying quickly stood up and followed.
"Everyone should come. In case something happens, we can run away together," Chen Mumo nodded.
Lu Shanshan and Xue Xu's hearts pounded rapidly. They had heard from He Ying that those people were not to be trifled with and were capable of taking lives.
However, they couldn't deny that it was indeed thrilling.
The five of them crouched low and quietly walked down the slope. By the time they reached the bottom, they were very close to the last vehicle in the convoy.
In the distance, the conflict between Yizhong and Qingbei intensified.
Song Yu finally made a move.
His left hand extended straight up, while his right hand made continuous horizontal wavy motions. Sand and stones flew around like a tornado, enclosing the several people from Qingbei within it.
Just as Chen Mumo had speculated last time, this person's special ability was to manipulate objects.
Functionally speaking, this ability was incredibly powerful.
But Chen Mumo was well aware that the more powerful an ability appeared, the more difficult it was to enhance and control.
From the current situation, it was evident that Song Yu's strength was indeed formidable.
This widespread control technique not only had a high level of difficulty, but its individual damage output was actually not very high. It was more about looking cool than being truly effective, far inferior to precise individual control.
However, in the current situation, this was the most intimidating method to use against Yizhong.
After watching for a while, Chen Mumo stopped paying attention to the battle over there.
His goal was simple: he wanted to secretly steal a car and bring it back.
Of course, this was not a reckless adventure without reason. Chen Mumo had long set his sights on the last vehicle in the convoy.
It was a container truck, estimated to be about a dozen meters long, and it appeared to be the same proportion as before.
Among the entire convoy, this was the largest vehicle, carrying the most cargo, and because it was enclosed, it was impossible to see what it was carrying from the outside.
The unseen was always the most enticing.
The main purpose of Chen Mumo's trip this time was to investigate the living conditions of Yizhong and see what they were eating, wearing, and using. If he could manage to seize this truckload of goods, he would undoubtedly achieve his goal and also replenish his own supplies, killing two birds with one stone.
At the corner of the bottom of the slope, there was a warning pole used for drivers to check their position, and it provided good cover to hide their figures.
In fact, the huge container truck itself already blocked the five people's silhouettes effectively.
But the specific method of stealing the car, especially stealing this massive object in front of so many people, was indeed a problem.
"They are fighting so intensely; they probably won't notice us over here," He Ying said, and from their angle, they couldn't see the chaotic scene of the group battle anymore. Her point made sense.
Lu Shanshan worriedly asked, "But what if we get discovered? Will both sides join forces to take us out?"
Chen Mumo shook his head, "That's unlikely. The hatred between Yizhong and Qingbei is deep as the sea. They won't team up."
Wei Dalei slapped his chest and said, "Ah, fortune favors the bold! What's there to hesitate about? Let me charge over and push the car directly to us, problem solved."
No one doubted his words.
Because the appearance of the container truck gave people a sense of weight and gravity.
However, in reality, the effort needed to push a vehicle like this was to overcome the static friction between the tires and the ground.
However, Wei Dalei's battle axe had limited effectiveness against their agile figures.
These two individuals had temporarily put Wei Dalei at a disadvantage.
Their strength must be formidable.
It's worth noting that even Chen Mumo, under the circumstance where he couldn't go all out to kill, found it challenging to push Wei Dalei to this extent.
In this light,
Inside this container truck, there must be something important, which is why Yizhong arranged two invisible guards inside. These two guards never appeared even when the outside situation was chaotic.
Chen Mumo originally didn't have the determination to claim the truck as his own. He planned to leave immediately if the other side noticed anything amiss, as this wasn't his purpose for being there.
However, now it seemed that he couldn't just let go of the truck.
Under the pressure of the two ferocious opponents, Wei Dalei initially seemed a bit flustered, but as time passed, the advantage of his weapon became evident.
The two individuals held cone-shaped iron spikes in their hands, similar to daggers, but it was quite absurd to compare them to Wei Dalei's battle axe. Once Wei Dalei created a certain distance between them, they were left with no choice but to be at his mercy.
Chen Mumo felt relieved; Wei Dalei already had the upper hand.
Since that was the case, Chen Mumo didn't mind adding to it.
A steel rope stealthily coiled around the feet of the two individuals who were fiercely fighting Wei Dalei.
The corner of their eyes didn't leave the remaining few people, but they never expected that Chen Mumo had this trick up his sleeve. The situation was already quite difficult, so they weren't prepared for attacks from below.
One of them stumbled and fell to the ground.
When he tried to struggle to get up, he found that his feet were bound securely.
Before he could react, Wei Dalei swung his shield at him and knocked him unconscious. Thankfully, Wei Dalei restrained his strength, and the man's skull remained intact.
The man let out a muffled groan and passed out.
With one less person, the movements of the other man noticeably slowed down. Wei Dalei kicked him in the lower abdomen, sending him flying, and then followed up with a shield strike, knocking him unconscious as well.
Chen Mumo nodded.
As expected, their ability required both of them to work together.
At this moment, he hesitated. After all, these two men had seen their faces, which could lead to trouble later on. In theory, they should eliminate all witnesses, especially because they were from Yizhong and were natural enemies of Chen Mumo and his group.
However, in the end, he decided not to take their lives.
By now, the truck had been pulled to their front. Chen Mumo separated another part from his weapon, one end tied to the truck's front, and the other end secured around Wei Dalei's waist.
"Let's go!"
"Go where?"
"Home."
The sounds of the battle over there were getting fainter. Due to the distance, Chen Mumo couldn't see clearly what was happening. But no matter which side won, they wouldn't be able to take the truck away.
There was no better time to run than now.
