Gao Tian! I'm coming over right now! Make the transfer order transaction!

High-speed flight, rendezvous.

While exerting himself to adjust his condition, Ter also sent a confirmation message to Gao Tian, feeling quite tense.

He knew the situation on Gao Tian's side was extremely dire; the four Fourth Stage juniors he brought, including himself, probably couldn't help much.

But for him, this was the limit of what he could do!

His only hope now is that Ron's side can bring more Fourth Stage members; otherwise, he fears he'll truly have to pay with his life to Lin An.

Just as Ter was anxiously waiting, suddenly a strong sense of danger erupted from three directions behind him at once, as if a peerless expert had been following him all along and now erupted violently!

"Not good!"

His expression changed drastically; Ter instinctively turned and swung his axe to meet the attack!

Instinctively, the blood-fire rule he was about to use was pushed to the limit, and the tip of his battle axe swelled into a huge axe-shaped phantom.

However, contrary to Ter's expectations, those three killing intents came and went quickly.

He heard only three consecutive faint bursting sounds, almost like hallucinations.

In an instant they vanished, as if no enemy had been pursuing him at all.

"What the—? Where are they?!"

The rule phantom, having lost its target, passed through the rear as if piercing the air.

"Boom!!"

The void shattered.

In midair, Ter stared blankly at the empty space behind him; in his eyes, there wasn't even a Fourth Stage, let alone a cloud!

Unable to comprehend what was happening, he looked around in astonishment but saw nothing abnormal. For a moment, Ter wondered if he was hallucinating from excessive pressure.

Without giving him time to think, the next second the transaction completed and a transfer token appeared in his hand.

"Forget it, it must be an illusion!"

Not bothering to ponder what just happened, Ter took a deep breath, assumed his perception was wrong, and hurriedly grabbed the transfer token and rushed toward the rendezvous point.

But just as Ter turned and flew away, three red streaks, like paint, silently drifted down from midair.

It was as if something had been crushed to death within a spatial interlayer.

Three minutes and forty-four seconds later.

"Hum-hum!"

At the outskirts of Weihai City, two urgent white flashes sounded instantly as the spatial channel unfolded.

Gao Tian, eyes full of anxiety, watched the squad rush out of the transfer channel; upon seeing their numbers, he suddenly froze.

He saw that among the Fourth Stage reinforcements arriving from both sides, the leaders Ter and Ron both wore heavy, repressed expressions to the extreme.

"What… is this? Ron? Where are your Fourth Stage subordinates? Ter, you…!?"

Two Fourth Stage intermediates, seven Fourth Stage juniors.

This is all the strength Ron and Ter brought.

Seeing that the two were roughly comparable to the force he had taken when breaking through, Gao Tian's heart jolted and he couldn't help but blurt out a question.

"Sorry, Gao Tian, I can only bring these people."

"Soviet Union ran into problems; these few Fourth Stage I can bring are already my comrades-in-arms who have fought alongside me! They too have benefited from Lin An's kindness."

"I too… Gao Tian, I really did my best. If I hadn't run fast, I might not have made it here."

Ron's face looked even worse than Ter's, still bearing many battle scars; he gave a bitter laugh and quickly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

It's hard to imagine that, as a former refugee who once controlled the deepest North American theater, upon receiving Gao Tian's message he was immediately ambushed! He had thought he was already a leader of North America, but never expected someone he couldn't believe in to appear!

"It's Andre! Andre came back two months ago! He actually teamed up with the refugees again and secretly took control of my subordinates!"

"You know it! My situation in North America actually relied entirely on Lin An's name to hold up! Once Lin An disappeared, nobody listened to me…!"

Explaining the past as briefly as possible, Ron's story was even more heartbreaking than Ter's; midway through his speech his smile turned more grim, as if he had suffered a great blow in the earlier battle.

"Andre? Andre isn't he dead?"

Never having imagined such a situation, Gao Tian, who had placed great hopes on the two, now stood frozen in place.

These two, who should have been Lin An's greatest support, saw both major theaters encounter trouble one after another; in an instant Gao Tian felt his breathing grow difficult, pressure surging.

Not having time to ask more, grasping at straws, Gao Tian took a deep breath and also had to lead Ron and the others back out.

"Follow me! The situation is very complicated! Mo Ling is leading our troops in resisting the supernatural incident; our enemy this time might be very troublesome!"

Although there were too many doubts, he could see that Ron and Ter both had a lot they wanted to say.

But looking at the two phantoms locked in a white-hot battle in the distant sky, Gao Tian also knew this was not the time to ask for clarification.

Without further concealment, after quickly explaining the enemy's encircling force, Gao Tian transformed himself into a bowstring, as if asking Ter and Ron one last time:

"At least three Fourth Stage seniors, over three hundred Fourth Stage members, and a large number of unknown monsters! Plus hidden refugees! Those who escaped the collapse of the Japanese theater have all become heavenly ghosts; we still don't know their combat strength!"

"Ter! Ron! I'll tell you frankly, even our Long An faction has no confidence of winning; whether you stay or leave is your choice!"

Hearing Gao Tian's solemn voice, Ter and the others all gazed solemnly at the distant battle apparition.

Even though they were hundreds of kilometers away, they could feel the piercing chill emanating from the battlefield's center; without a doubt, the situation would be worse than what Gao Tian said.

However, with almost no hesitation, Ter directly attached his spiritual energy to Gao Tian's displacement rule and spoke coldly:

"Don't ask anymore! Since I, Ter, dared to come, I've prepared for the worst! It looks like I'm saving you Long An now, but I know the next target will be us!"

"I..."

Unlike Ter's firmness, Ron gave a bitter laugh, his eyes showing a hint of hesitation.

He actually didn't know why he had been rash enough to come along; he just instinctively wanted to help. For a long time, he had actually quite "disliked" Lin An.

".."

"Forget it, let him die if he dies! Anyway, I'm unwelcome wherever I go."

Andre has a problem! He claims he wants to form an Earth Federation, to gather all of humanity's strength and cooperate with the fugitives, to jointly resist the Apocalypse!

He has a problem! I think that guy, once he succeeds, I will definitely die too!

Fully aware that in the eyes of the outside world, he is Lin An's trusted aide placed in North America, Luo En bitterly smiled, realizing he might also be on both sides' kill lists. Long An is gone; next up is him!

It's better to place hope in that guy Lin An than to expect to survive the pursuit.

(That pervert might not be dead! When he comes back, everything will get better. However, Andre that pervert also has a problem, forget it... damn it!)

Seeing Luo En hesitate a moment but also conform to his own rules, Gao Tian took a deep breath, feeling slightly moved in his heart, and then, at the fastest speed, led everyone back to the coast!

Fight desperately! Lin Dui isn't here; they can only rely on themselves!

Silently gripping the ancient longbow behind him, subconsciously, a flash of longing and fearless fighting spirit appeared in Gao Tian's eyes.

Even without Lin An, even without the umbrella shielding them overhead.

The arrow in his hand will also tell that bunch of scum that he, Gao Tian, is also humanity's hope!
