Martial artists generally follow the path of refining and refining qi, and the martial arts are difficult, so there are very few who can patiently temper their bodies.

This is the same as when the Huashan faction divided the two sects of sword qi, the sword cultivation took a shortcut, although the road was rugged, but it went fast; Although Neixiu took the road to heaven, this road was slow.

Most martial artists will choose shortcuts in the early stage, which is understandable, after all, if there is no means to protect the path, the internal cultivation that focuses on the foundation is naturally not an opponent to take shortcuts.

This is related to the ownership of resources, however, internal cultivation can also rely on tools, and now it is the era of science and technology, and those who practice ordinary external skills are not as good as a gun.

However, because of the environment here in Nanyang, there are the most poisoners, and the enemy is invisible, which is better than a gun, after all, in most cases, you can't use a gun.

In this wave of chasing soldiers, although they are all elite in name, most of them are not martial artists who take the right path, in the martial arts world, these people are also those loose cultivators on the rivers and lakes, even if they look at it in terms of force, they are at the same level as the disciples of famous and decent families, but when they encounter some extreme scenes, they show the difference, so they will be at a disadvantage to these "mutants", and even lose a lot.

Most of these people are local natives in Nanyang, most of these people have no plans for the future, and most of them have chosen to be effective in the short term if they have enough points to learn martial arts in the Tang Sect.

After breaking out of the landslide area, the only chasing soldiers that Stephen and his party had to face were the last ship that escaped, and of course, this ship was also the strongest, because the real elite of several other ships that were either stranded or damaged were all on this ship.

In between firing the magazines, Hawkeye gasped tiredly, lay down with his head down, and said to Stephen, "Hey, mage, let's go out one more time and finish off these pesky guys." ”

The situation has developed to such an extent that the difference in strength between the two sides has been completely reversed to some extent.

If the previous chasing ships suppressed many of Stephen's ideas, it was difficult to implement many of Stephen's ideas, but now the 1:1 advantage situation made Stephen immediately think of at least five ways to completely get out of the current dilemma of being pursued.

He chose the most violent, the most direct.

Stephen closed his eyes gently, and the colorless spiritual power fluctuations shrouded Fang Yuan like a radar, and soon, he found something that could match his plan—a reef!

Near the exit of the canyon, not far ahead is the mouth of the sea, the water slows down, at this time do not hurry up to deal with the pursuers behind, wait for the river to slow down, if it is entangled at that time, if the boat is destroyed, it will be difficult to go at that time.

Stephen motioned for Steve to put away his shield; After letting the others resist for a while, Steve obeyed Stephen's command and slammed his fist into the auxiliary mast next to him; The mast snapped off with a snap, and with his tremendous force, the thick mast was as fragile as a matchstick!

Then Stephen motioned for him to hold the mast in the air, and then let him go to the bow of the ship, holding the auxiliary mast with one hand, and it looked like a straight sharp ramming angle had grown from the bow of the ship!

The current here has become a little smoother, and Steve first took a step back in advance, and with the help of Stephen's mental power detection, he pushed the broken mast he was carrying towards the reef in front of him!

The hull of the ship shook violently, even Steve's outstanding strength as a mutant snorted at this time, and the ship's plank under his feet exploded with a crackle, and the muscles on his shoulders bulged like iron!

The impact of the ship down the river is so huge, but fortunately, the texture of the wood that can be used as a mast is unusually tough and dense, otherwise I am afraid it would have broken a long time ago, and after this time, the whole ship suddenly changed from high-speed downward to stationary, and then from stationary to upstream!

How did the elite of the Tang Sect in the rear know that such a strange thing would happen; The enemy fleeing in the river in front of them suddenly came to a standstill and collided with them at high speed!

Of course, although the river has become narrow in this canyon, it is also wide for a boat, and it is not easy to hit it directly, but when the two boats are still five meters apart, Steve has already tightened his shield and jumped over first!

His body curled up in the air, and he made a standard evasive action, the purpose was to reduce the area of the attack as small as possible, plus there was a shield to block it, in fact, he was not afraid of attacking, plus Peter and others used some means to help him speed up, and successfully completed the task of the raid.

The elite of the Tang Sect on the opposite side didn't expect such a "human bomb" to attack at all, and they didn't react for a while, until Steve rolled and landed steadily, and stepped on the board of the ship steadily, before he had time to make a response!

"Huh?" After Stevie landed abruptly, he grinned and came face to face with a poor hapless bastard, and with a single push and smash of his shield, he took two lives.

Like Steve, a terrifying guy who is good at hand-to-hand combat, after approaching the "pseudo-warriors" of the Tang Gate, who mostly rely on poison and hidden weapons and firearms, even though they are nominally the elites of the Tang Gate, but the scene on the ship at this time can only be described in four words - tiger into the flock!

These people in the Tang Sect are also not afraid of death, and in this regard, when they raided the rudder of the Tang Gate, Steve and the others also learned it, you must know that preparations were made in advance, and weapons such as shock bombs were used, but they still failed to complete the task within the expected time.

In the end, they could only throw down those cannon fodder and run away alone, everyone had some of their own gains, but they couldn't take it away, so they could only give up, and they were chased all the way here.

Of course they are angry, so why can't these people be obedient?

This group of elites of the Tang Sect did not care about Steve's heart, and at this time they screamed and pulled out their short soldiers and pounced, and the brave won when they met on a narrow road, which is a clear truth, but human instinct has emotions such as fear, and the warrior is to restrain this emotion.

Maybe they can't be called a qualified martial artist, but they are qualified mentally, of course, this has a lot to do with the presence of the Tang Sect behind them.

At this time, this is a worse situation on the boat than fighting against the water, if you escape, then jumping into the rushing river is definitely more than lucky, so there are only two options to survive: kill the guy in front of you, or be killed by him.

There is a compensatory for being killed, and the Tang Sect has a perfect reserve order, which can make the warriors under him fight hard.

Although most of them are good at long-range attacks, they can become elites and obtain this name, and their hand-to-hand combat ability is also more than ten times that of ordinary people, but unfortunately if the enemy on the opposite side is complete, it is a strange existence that can open up with many powerful characters in the universe.

Steve blocked the shield in front of him first, and the four daggers could only be slashed at the shield, which was blocked by the strong resistance!

And Steve's right hand was not idle, and at this time, a fist wind swept away!

The consequence of this blow was that the two elites who attacked him were directly driven by his fist to break their muscles and bones, and fell into the turbulent river with a scream.

And at this time, Peter has already jumped over as light as a swallow, he is wearing a tight suit, he looks extremely flexible, and at this time he is also wielding two sharp blades in his hands, which is not like a spider, but a little like a praying mantis!

Two sharp blades outlined the curve of death in the air, and the sharp blades slashed, and blood splashed sideways.

Peter's passing was followed by a splattering of blood! Even the air around them was dyed in a thick reddish mist!

Steve suddenly turned around at this time, and then looked at his opponent, who had been divided, he was shocked into a cold sweat, and he also turned around very quickly, otherwise he would probably be affected by the pond fish, and scolded angrily: "F***! F***！ Do you want to kill me? ”

Peter didn't say anything at this time, just glanced at him, and then suddenly turned around, and the sharp blade in his hand collided with the broadsword of an enemy who was now holding a knife, and the spark exploded!

As the rest of the superheroes came up one by one, the battle to seize the ship was soon over, in fact, the fate of the ship's pursuers was already sealed from the moment they ventured, the only difference was the length of time they were defeated.

They don't know what kind of opponent they are facing, most of them seem to be just mutants that are very common now, but these people are all weird and inexplicable existences, very similar to the images in the movie and comics, and it can be said that they all have the fate of the "protagonist".

Several of them even have the potential to become cosmic-level powerhouses, and it is naturally impossible for these "pseudo-warriors" to try to counterattack the "protagonist".

……

After the pursuers in the rear were cleared, Stephen and his party drifted down again, but Stephen did not rush out of the sea with people all the time, who knows if the net has been laid at the mouth of the sea, this is very likely, the power of the Tang Gate can only be overestimated here and now.

Taking advantage of the darkness of night, he scuttled through the ship, then abandoned it before dawn, destroyed it completely, and then quickly turned ashore.

The group walked for a while, and then stopped in a hilly area, Stephen and they had no choice but to stop here, you must know that this is a tropical area, but the day is very hot, and a group of people have been fighting fiercely for so long, fighting against a terrible enemy like Tangmen, and driving a boat to flee all night, without a break, it is really impossible to support.

Even he himself also needs to think about how to escape from the Tang Gate's net, originally expected that if it goes well, he will be able to escape from the sea at night; He had only planned to get there.

Stephen is not a true wise man who can calculate the current situation, which is already good.

If the plan predicted at that time was successful, then there was still a chance to escape to the sea at night, and of course, after being desperately blocked by the pursuers and dead soldiers, the original plan would naturally be impossible.

The targets during the day are too eye-catching, satellites, drones, etc. will lock on to them, although those elites of the Tang Sect have died heavily, but they still made meritorious contributions after all, disrupting Stephen's plan and preventing him from absconding to the sea.

And now, the land is not safe, although a lot of preparations have been made, such a long river, Tang Men wants to find out where Stephen's team came ashore, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time, and this time is the only time left for Stephen.

Grasp this time, if you can escape, then you will naturally escape; If you don't find a way within this time, you'll probably have to surrender.

It is expected that there will be at least 10 hours, so you can basically rest until the afternoon, and at the same time, you can hide and rest here, and you can also ensure that you will not be detected by aerial reconnaissance.

As for the Tang Sect, they would definitely not give up, but the probability of tracking them here from the clues they left on the land was still infinitely close to 0 in these ten hours.

The sun shone hot, and a group of people casually crooked in the cave dug by Stephen with a spell, and they all let out an even snoring sound, and the first one to stay on guard was Peter, to be honest, Peter was also very tired, and his healing superpower also had to pay a price, and the price was the upper limit of his vitality.

He is not a complete mutant, as if he is similar to a spider after his genetic atavism, and then has all the skills of a spider.

This is also the reason why those research institutions of the US imperialism gave up in-depth research after research, Peter's spider gene seems to be strong, and it is expected to increase the vitality by at least two times, but most spiders act on instinct, and all kinds of instincts of spiders are consuming the upper limit of vitality.

Twice the upper life span is indeed tempting, but if you count the consumption, it is actually better to inject the immortal gene directly, after all, the spider gene is still rejective, and they can only increase the success rate from 3% to about 50% by investing a lot of money in research, so why take such a big risk for only ten more years of life?

After all, the current scientific and technological progress is so fast, and after the current upper limit of life expectancy exceeds one or two decades, it may be possible to make further breakthroughs!

Peter is gifted and can control his own life force consumption, of course, this is also related to his long-term exercise, at the beginning, Peter, who had no scruples at all, did not know that his ability was consuming his life force.

It was also during that year's workout that he mastered all kinds of real "Spider-Man" skills, of course, at the cost of decades of life limit.

Consuming 20% of Peter's 400 years of life is not a high price, but how can anyone else be sure that they will be able to control themselves by consuming 20% of their life?

……。

"Gone?"

Tang Zichen was staying on the warship at the mouth of the sea at this time, and after getting the information that came, she immediately commanded her people to encircle the area where Stephen was, this time tens of thousands of people were mobilized, but Stephen and the others disappeared in the middle of the night.
