Chapter 692 Puzzle

St. Mary's Hospital.

The seventh floor of the inpatient department.

Earlaen and Lin Xuanyuan were still retreating with their men.

The scene didn't seem to have changed at all. The two of them stood at the front of their own camp, one retreating, the other advancing.

Countless ice-cold gazes swept across each other, and in the increasingly oppressive atmosphere, the speed at which the two of them descended the stairs became faster and faster.

The chaotic footsteps downstairs could already be heard clearly.

Tens of thousands of soldiers surrounded Saint Mary's Hospital. At this moment, they all moved. Even a random movement caused the ground to tremble. The already riddled hospital building also trembled slightly.

This was a sense of intimidation brought about by the tens of thousands of soldiers.

The expressions of everyone on the royal side became serious.

If they had been fighting the Atlas clan to the death in the seventeenth floor, then the next step would have been a bitter battle.

They had to break through the siege of tens of thousands of U.S. Troops in a limited amount of time, and then flee within the U.S. Territory. As for the escape route, everyone was already clear before the operation.

Their escape route was constructed by the Songhe Family, Skysea Family, and Rothschild Family at the same time. There were a total of three escape routes. The ideal route was to head south from Federation City, cross the inland of the United States, pass through Charlotte, Atlanta, Birmingham, Jackson, Houston, and San Antonio, and directly enter Silver Nation .

The escape route is not far from each of the three options, But they're all going to inland cities, Relatively safe, In fact, on this route, They could have chosen New Orleans, and sail from New Orleans to Silver Nation, However, as a port city, New Orleans had only been visited by Lin Xuanyuan. At this moment, it was almost on full alert. The danger was too great. Compared to Lin Xuanyuan, although Houston had also been visited by Lin Xuanyuan, due to its geographical location, its guards weren't very strong. Therefore, this road was the safest and easiest to cross.

While the second option has the shortest escape distance, From Federation City to Charlotte, Through Jacksonville to Miami, and went straight to Brazil, With Brazil's diplomatic relations with the United States and Rothschild's influence in Brazil, they could also obtain sufficient security. However, this path was also the most likely escape route that the US authorities had speculated. Along the way, several port cities would be firmly watched to death. It would be the most difficult for them to travel all the way.

The third option was the longest escape route, almost across the middle of the country to Toronto, Canada.

This was also the most dangerous path.

Canada was not as chaotic as Silver Nation, nor was its diplomatic relations as bad as Brazil. With the good relations between the United States and Canada, even if they arrived in Canada, there was not much difference between them and the United States. They also needed to hide.

As for pushing all the way over?

This was even more ridiculous.

At least not for a short period of time.

This time, if they succeeded in breaking through the encirclement, it would be a true escape. Under the condition that all the experts had consumed the gene potion, this team of super experts would be weaker than ever. Not to mention pushing horizontally, even facing an ordinary X-class expert at that time was enough to kill them all alone.

Therefore, compared to the previous death battles, if they were able to successfully break out of the encirclement, then it would be a truly bitter time.

The fifth floor.

The two sides were still retreating in tacit agreement. No one took action, but everyone was ready to attack with all their might at any time.

The five-story building was more than ten meters tall. This was a range and distance that any X-class expert could jump down directly. The troops downstairs had also begun to gather. They were getting closer and closer to breaking through the encirclement. At this time, war could break out between the two sides at any time. Everyone was seriously guarding against each other.

For Atlas, The moment they walked out of the building, It should be the first time they opened a distance from Lin Xuanyuan. The further they opened, the more powerful the firearms and bullets in the hands of the Rice Army would be. If they could open a distance of more than a hundred meters with the people of the Imperial Clan, then the experts of the Imperial Clan would collapse in a single round of fire from the tens of thousands of meters outside.

On the other hand, if they were always entangled with the royal family, then the weapons of the American army would be useless. No matter how hard they got along with Yurisses , Yurisses did not dare to attack them. At the very least, every time Atlas retained some strength, it would be more beneficial to the country.

"What's on your mind?"

Earlaen suddenly looked at Lin Xuanyuan and asked. Before Lin Xuanyuan could reply, he already took the initiative to laugh, "You're thinking about how to break out of the encirclement, aren't you? You can't get out. Yes, I'm talking about you."

Earlaen pointed at the other people behind Lin Xuanyuan and said, "Anyone can leave, but you can't. You refused my invitation, so I have to kill you. Perhaps I will bring everyone to attack you at the same time. How long can you last?" On the other hand, as long as you die, it will be very difficult for them to survive. I can give you another chance to accept my invitation. My previous conditions are still valid. As long as you join Atlas, I can even let them go. "

"You don't have that right, and I'm joining Atlas? Neither I nor they will accept such an outcome."

Lin Xuanyuan said expressionlessly. As he spoke, his gaze had already jumped over Earlaen and looked behind him.

We're almost to the third floor.

In a ward on the third floor, Adolf was still lying unconscious.

This could be said to be one of the greatest rewards of their trip.

What Lin Xuanyuan was thinking about was how to get him out of here now.

As long as he obtained the gene potion formula from the Paladin Clan, he would be able to make a huge leap in the Royal Clan's gene potion technology.

This is inestimable value.

"Ming Xuan."

Lin Xuanyuan suddenly shouted.

"I'm here."

Qi Mingxuan replied directly. She also came to Lin Xuanyuan's side.

Lin Xuanyuan approached Qi Mingxuan and whispered something in his ear. Even with Qi Mingxuan's calm, his body couldn't help but tremble.

Lin Xuanyuan actually captured Adolf alive!

This was an even harder task than killing Adolf, but Lin Xuanyuan had accomplished it!

Qi Mingxuan instantly confirmed the enormous value of this harvest. Under the excitement, her entire body was trembling slightly.

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He nodded and took a step back.

The troops of both sides descended.

The third floor.

Without stopping, Earlaen walked past the corners of the corridor and directly retreated to the second floor.

Lin Xuanyuan and the others followed closely behind, while Qi Mingxuan escaped from the crowd and rushed to a certain ward at full speed.

Earlaen's eyelids twitched and he stopped.

Lin Xuanyuan's gaze suddenly condensed. His gaze was firmly locked onto Earlaen , and his gaze was dense.

"Continue. You're almost out of time."

Lin Xuanyuan said coldly.

"Aren't you going to explain his behavior?"

Earlaen pointed in the direction where Qi Mingxuan rushed over and snorted coldly.

"There's no need. If you want to fight here, I can accompany you at any time. This is the third floor. I can guarantee that once the battle starts, at least half of the people behind you will fall by the time you reach the first floor!"

Under the golden mask, Lin Xuanyuan's voice was ferocious.

"I don't accept threats."

Earlaen said calmly, "Perhaps I can guess what Qi Mingxuan is going to do?" The battle between you and Adolf went from upstairs to downstairs. Most of the building was destroyed by you. With your strength, you can pierce through from the seventeenth floor all the way here. If I'm not mistaken, this is where you defeated Adolf! At first, I thought you killed Adolf, but now I suddenly heard a detail. The sea god in Adolf's hand is one of Atlas's divine weapons. If he really died, you wouldn't give up that spoils of war. But now, the sea god is not in your hands. What does that mean? Adolf's alive! If he's still alive, then you made a deal with him? You took the gene potion from Adolf, and he even gave you the Invincible Potion, increasing your body strength again, didn't he? "!"

Earlaen pointed at the place where Qi Mingxuan had disappeared, and his eyes instantly became scorching hot. "Qi Mingxuan has gone to look for Adolf!"

"So what?"

Lin Xuanyuan said gloomily, "He is my prisoner, my spoils of war. I don't need you to ask how I will deal with him."

"You can't take him away!"

'"Adolf is the Paladin of Atlas. You can't take him away! I won't allow him!" Earlaen shouted, his eyes already showing a trace of excitement.

Adolf's loss, It could be said that Atlas suffered the greatest loss in today's battle, The death of a supreme being was even worse than Atlas's loss of more than a dozen X-class masters, Now hearing that Adolf wasn't dead, Earlaen immediately became excited. If Adolf could stay, Then Atlas still had three World-shaking Sovereigns. This number was slightly smaller than the royal family, but the gap between the two was already very small. If Adolf was alive, then his existence would be almost strategic. With him, even if the royal family had more World-shaking Sovereigns than Atlas, they would not dare to act rashly.

"Hand over Adolf. Lin Xuanyuan, you have no other choice!"

"I can at least choose to kill him!"

Lin Xuanyuan indifferently took a step forward and shouted, "Back!"

Earlaen gritted his teeth and glared at Lin Xuanyuan.

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through his heart.

Earlaen knew very well that this was a good opportunity. In the absence of Qi Mingxuan, the speed of the royal family would be slowed down. This was a good opportunity to open the gap between the two sides.

But the problem is...

If Qi Mingxuan wasn't around, would the royal family's troops really be slowed down?

If they completely abandoned Qi Mingxuan, Earlaen wouldn't have a good idea. Qi Mingxuan might end up at the bottom, but just as Lin Xuanyuan said, even if Qi Mingxuan died at the muzzle of the gun, he could at least choose to kill Adolf before he died.

Trading Adolf for Qi Mingxuan was simply a blood loss.

No matter what, from the bottom of his heart, Earlaen could not give up Adolf's important combat strength at this time.

"We can trade!"

Earlaen was silent for a while. He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Lin Xuanyuan, hand Adolf over to me. I can let you leave this place. Perhaps I can't control the Rice Army outside from not attacking, but at least I can restrain my men from chasing you." Atlas will not send a single soldier to hunt you down in three days. We will not interfere in your breakout. As long as you hand Adolf over to me, you know what this means! "

Lin Xuanyuan's body trembled slightly.

Of course he knew what that meant.

If they wanted to break through the blockade line of tens of thousands of Rice Army and Atlas, even if they succeeded, they would still pay an extremely heavy price. In the hands of the royal family, it was already considered good that one-third of them could survive.

But if Earlaen and Atlas didn't take action, the casualty rate would be greatly reduced. All he needed to do was to hand Adolf over to avoid his side's huge losses.

It might not be worth it for a few X-class experts to exchange for an Adolf, but who could guarantee that the royal clan's World-shaking experts would not perish during the process of breaking out of the encirclement?

Moreover, many things weren't worth it at all. There were also many rational factors inside.

The hesitation in Lin Xuanyuan's eyes flashed, and then he said in a low voice, "This deal is acceptable. Then the question is, how should I trust you?"

"I will only propose the contents of the transaction. I need you to think of your own ways to deal with it."

Earlaen said coldly.

What can we do to believe that Earlaen will keep its promise?

Without a doubt, this was a difficult problem.
