"Changing direction might also lead to a collision; we can only speed up."
As he spoke, Shen Zhigui was already operating the car with the prowess of a fierce tiger.
After accelerating, the scenery beside the car was racing backward, and to sit steady, they had to hold onto the grips inside the car.
"Hold tight, we have to escape now."
Chu Jiangyue turned his head to look at the little girl behind him, reminding her.
The little girl obediently held onto the door grip, her face tense and a bit panicked.
"Do you know how many Mutated Elephants there are? If we can’t avoid them, we must be ready to fight."
Shen Zhigui needed to focus on driving and didn’t have the attention to check how large the elephant herd was.
"Host, there are 30-50, most of them are adult Mutated Elephants."
Before Chu Jiangyue could inquire, Little Fox provided the answer.
Chu Jiangyue repeated what Little Fox said to Shen Zhigui.
Upon hearing this number, Shen Zhigui’s expression was not good.
If there were only a dozen or so, with their numbers, they might manage, but for forty or fifty, Shen Zhigui wasn’t sure they could handle it.
Because in the whole team, he only knew a few small teams; he wasn’t clear about the rest of their capabilities.
As a result, he couldn’t estimate their team’s overall combat power.
Not knowing the team’s specific strength, Shen Zhigui could only push the accelerator to the floor.
"Host, those Mutated Elephants have all gone berserk, and their speed is much faster now!"
Upon hearing Little Fox’s reminder, Chu Jiangyue’s expression turned grim.
This elephant herd was different from the previous Mutated Crows.
Mutated Crows couldn’t breach the car’s defenses, allowing them to drive away anytime, but the Mutated Elephant herd, while also unable to break through their snow-crossing vehicle defenses, could crush their car into the snow with one stomp.
At that point, forget driving forward; even getting out of the car would be difficult.
Thinking of this, Chu Jiangyue’s face turned grim.
"I see that the Mutated Elephant herd has gotten much faster. If there are any buildings to hide in, we could drive in and take shelter."
The Mutated Elephant herd might directly go into a frenzy because they haven’t caught up with their prey for so long.
If that’s the case, then they absolutely can’t get out of the car; if they get caught, at least in the car, they won’t be attacked.
"No way, the Mutated Elephants are too fast, and our whole team is spread too thin; the cars behind are likely to be caught up!"
Chu Jiangyue opened the car window and looked back, discovering a serious problem.
"Host, the people behind have noticed this issue, and they’ve started overtaking to the front."
Shen Zhigui’s driving skills were trained, so he dared to slam the pedal to the metal, but the driving skills of the people behind varied.
The people in front slowed down, and the ones behind were certainly unwilling to let themselves be caught by the Mutated Elephant herd because of others.
Thus, the ones in the back started a racing chase.
And from behind, the Mutated Elephant herd, close enough, they could feel the ground vibrating inside the car.
Little Fox was like Chu Jiangyue’s eyes; whatever happened in the team, Chu Jiangyue could know immediately.
"Screech—"
Shen Zhigui suddenly slammed the brakes; Chu Jiangyue pitched forward but was thankfully wearing a seatbelt and didn’t hit her head.
"There’s a broken bridge ahead."
Shen Zhigui’s expression was extremely unpleasant.
"Little Fox, what’s going on?"
She clearly followed the navigation, so how could they have ended up in front of a broken bridge!
Little Fox looked at the broken bridge ahead, wide-eyed.
How could this be! Could the navigation system have malfunctioned?
"I’ll check the reason!"
With that, Little Fox turned into a cluster of data and vanished from Chu Jiangyue’s shoulder.
Little Fox could transform directly into data and disappear, but with no road ahead, they could only confront the pursuing Mutated Elephant herd.
Even with two Mutated Tigers in reserve, so many Mutated Elephants posed a considerable challenge to Chu Jiangyue and the others.
"Sister, what do we do now."
Seeing the broken bridge ahead and recalling what Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui had just said, with the Mutated Elephant herd in pursuit, the little girl was about to cry.
She knew their team was in trouble now.
But she neither had superpowers nor knew how to fight, unable to help with anything.
"You just need to stay put in the car."
In such a situation, even if they didn’t want to face it, they couldn’t avoid it.
Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui exchanged a glance and then opened the car door.
Behind them was Jin Chuyu’s car; the five of them also got out.
"Let’s go, what’s meant to come will come."
Today they were destined for a head-on clash with the Mutated Elephant herd.
When Chu Jiangyue approached a car, someone inside would exit.
Chu Jiangyue noticed that almost all who got out were superpower users; the ordinary people were left in the cars.
This outcome was something Chu Jiangyue had already considered.
In the car near Chu Jiangyue, she saw Lou Hongde.
Lou Hongde saw Chu Jiangyue and gave a slight nod as a greeting.
"Brother Shen, Boss Chu!"
Lin Xuyuan and the other three also got out, greeting Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui as they approached.
"Rumble..."
The sound made by the advancing Mutated Elephant herd was deafening as Chu Jiangyue and the superpower users stood behind the last car in their convoy, watching the oncoming Mutated Elephant herd.
Everyone had various colored powers gathered in their hands, ready to strike as soon as the elephants got close.
The Mutated Elephant herd moved rapidly, charging towards them soon after they had assembled.
Chu Jiangyue’s hands and the Little Vine on her wrist began to grow wildly; the purple thunderball in Shen Zhigui’s hands had been compressed an unknown number of times.
The battle was on instantly, with neither side holding back.
Chu Jiangyue’s habit was to pierce through the brain for the Crystal Core, while Little Vine’s was to strangle.
Despite their different styles, their coordination was flawless at this moment.
Little Vine took care of strangling, restraining the Mutated Elephants’ movements, while Chu Jiangyue struck to pierce the Mutated Elephant’s head.
In this manner, the duo’s coordination led to decisive one-hit kills.
Shen Zhigui’s thunderballs were equally effective with each throw.
However, the downside to such prodigal use of superpowers was that they quickly depleted.
As soon as their powers were nearly exhausted, they quickly retreated, allowing others to take over, and like everyone else, they rapidly sat down to restore their powers.
In the frontline circle of superpower users, quite a few had retreated by now, working to restore their powers.
Chu Jiangyue clutched a Wood Element Crystal Core in her palm, and before long, it turned to powder.
"Watch out!"
At the call of a warning, Chu Jiangyue and Shen Zhigui opened their eyes immediately.
They saw Jin Chuyu grabbing Huo Jun’s hand, pulling back the one almost impaled by the massive tusk of the Mutated Elephant.
