257: Escape

Although Search Captain feared Lord Chán Shēnzi, he dared not lie.

After bringing his men up, he tremblingly reported the truth.

As expected, Lord Chán Shēnzi was enraged and slapped Search Captain four times.

"Useless thing!"

The other two lords, after a quick calculation, believed it was absolutely impossible to catch up to Dili Abasi.

Given the speed of an Intermediate Evolver and the complexity of the tunnels below, she must have run to who-knows-where by now.

"That's enough, that's enough," the leading lord interrupted Lord Chán Shēnzi's rage.

"She's definitely gone now. Your anger here is useless. Let's quickly pack up Daughter Country Base and retreat."

"Big Brother! What if that woman comes back for revenge later?!"

"Since we could defeat her once, we can defeat her a second time. Our three bases will form a joint defense from now on. We'll stock up on all sorts of tanks and heavy artillery. I doubt she'll have any chance!"

"Big Brother, Third Brother. Although this woman is also an Intermediate Evolver, we know her! Later, I'll go find my old uncle; he's been an Intermediate Evolver for almost a year. I'll give him some gifts and buy him a chance to act," the second brother said thoughtfully, stroking his beard.

"Second Brother is right. You'll make a special trip later. You decide what to send, and the three bases will share the cost later." The eldest lord wasn't afraid of a direct confrontation; he was afraid of Dili Abasi's sneak attacks.

If other Intermediate Evolvers were willing to help, he would naturally feel much more at ease.

"Alright, Big Brother. I'll take care of it when I get back."

"Two brothers, let's go to Daughter Country then. Today, I must kill a few! Otherwise, I can't vent my hatred!" Lord Chán Shēnzi said viciously.

"Third Brother, is that even a question! When we get back, I'll let you pick first. I guarantee you'll be satisfied." The eldest lord, unlike him, wasn't as addicted and readily agreed.

Next, the three bases looted Daughter Country clean.

The remaining 70-plus women were all abducted. All food and weapons were also taken.

The injured Daughter Country warriors were all dismembered, their heads cut off and impaled on iron rods, arranged in a row as a display of power.

Then these people set fire to Daughter Country, burning it to ashes.

Dili Abasi ran for a long time underground, until she vaguely heard the wailing of some women.

She knew it was real, but she dared not stop, only kept running and running.

After running for an unknown amount of time, she stopped.

She vomited violently, a wave of nausea, headache, and chest tightness surging over her.

Thinking of her sisters, her people, tears streamed down her face!

Kneeling on the ground, she frantically pounded the ground with her fists.

Gradually, she fainted.

...

It was a full day later before she gradually awoke, her body sore, her mind incredibly heavy.

She struggled to breathe, adjusting her respiration. After more than ten minutes, she finally calmed down.

Opening her divine sense and covering the surroundings, she was surprised to discover an exit several kilometers away.

She could feel the faint light and fresh air there.

Gathering her strength again, Dili Abasi moved towards the exit.

Soon, she arrived near the exit.

Looking up, there was a very small hole more than twenty meters above the ground.

Faint sunlight streamed into the tunnel through the hole.

However, Dili Abasi was not in a hurry to go up. She opened her divine sense and carefully investigated, fearing an ambush near the exit.

"Thank goodness, there's nothing." This was the first thing she had said in a full day.

A weight lifted from her heart, and she felt slightly relieved. She took off her jacket, tore it in half, and wrapped her hands.

With everything ready, she began to climb the rock wall.

This distance was nothing for her; she reached it in an instant.

When she climbed out of the hole, she found that outside was a small gully, with a small stream flowing beside it.

She tried hard to recall and remembered that this place was about 30 kilometers from Daughter Country. She had visited once before to check the terrain.

Dili Abasi let out a long, stale breath, took several deep breaths, and her expression relaxed slightly.

But then a wave of sorrow swept over her again.

She looked mournfully in the direction of Daughter Country, tears flowing uncontrollably.

The base she had managed for several years was just gone. So many sisters were killed or captured like that.

She had originally thought that after evolving to Intermediate Evolver, she could sweep through everything. She didn't expect to have underestimated the enemy's brutality!

The enemy was not only brutal but also exceptionally united and resolute.

They gave her no time to breathe or develop. They even launched a fatal blow when Daughter Country was at its most vulnerable.

It was clear that these three bases had absolutely not acted on a whim.

Instead, they had begun preparing when Dili Abasi participated in the Trial.

The other side was afraid of her retaliating after evolving to Intermediate Evolver. Although the three factions usually had friction.

But the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and Dili Abasi caused the three factions to unite against her.

Dili Abasi sat on a rock, replaying everything, feeling more and more sad and heartbroken the more she thought about it!

She even felt that she had caused the death of her sisters.

At this moment, a mutated wild boar secretly appeared from behind.

This was originally its territory, and the appearance of a human made it extremely angry.

With a roar, the wild boar lowered its head and attacked from behind.

Dili Abasi's expression was calm. With a slight movement of her body, she stood up and kicked, killing the wild boar with one blow.

"Even you bully me!" Dili Abasi looked back at the wild boar with its head smashed and said helplessly.

But after the fierce battle, her body was extremely weak and urgently needed energy replenishment.

This wild boar was like a delivery to her doorstep. Dili Abasi casually tore off the pigskin, took out the internal organs, washed them clean by the stream, and then gnawed on them.

Eating raw meat was nothing to people in the apocalypse.

Especially this kind of wild boar, which was considered high-quality food. Dili Abasi ate with her mouth full of blood.

Unconsciously, pig blood flowed down her neck, chest, and elbows. In an instant, she became half-covered in blood.

After eating half a pig leg, her energy gradually recovered. Looking at herself and her blood-covered body,

She had only one thought: she must bathe the three bases in blood!

Kill everyone, leave no one alive!

Blood for blood!

She ate another half of the pig leg before she was full.

Dili Abasi took off all her clothes and went into the stream to wash her body.

She washed continuously, even scrubbing hard, as if to wash away the humiliation and failure on her body!

She washed for a full half an hour before coming out of the stream.

She washed her clothes clean, then found a cave, hung her clothes to dry, and curled up inside to rest.

Half-lying, half-sleeping, she kept half of her divine sense energy for vigilance.

...

On Dawn Base's side, nothing much had happened these past few days.

According to Pan Han's previous plans, they proceeded step by step, training and preparing.

They were just waiting for everything to be ready to begin the conquest of All States.

Pan Han was completely unaware of what had happened in Daughter Country. He had even prepared a small team to send there to communicate the situation.

Seeing that everything in the base was orderly, Pan Han pondered that it was time to return to his own world.

It had been twenty-odd days since he came out, and he didn't know what was happening at home.

So, early this morning, after eating breakfast, Pan Han came to check the gold collection situation.

Due to the large number of people at Dawn Base, there was a specialized gold collection team. In the past twenty days, they had collected a full 100 tons!

Pan Han looked at the room full of various gold coins, gold jewelry, large and small gold bars, and solid gold bricks.

He cried!

He couldn't spend it all! He simply couldn't spend it all!
