"Aren't the flying skills in this world a little too cheap?" Li Huailin could not help but complain. Indeed, everyone he saw now seemed to be able to fly. Of course, it was also possible that those who could not fly were already dead.
Although he complained, Li Huailin and the others immediately hid because they did not know which side the intruders were from. At this time, the group of soldiers who were searching also noticed the people flying in the sky. Everyone looked up at the sky.
"Enemy attack!" After watching for a while, Li Huailin heard a shout from the search party. Of course, with this shout, everyone would know that the group of people flying over were not NPCs, but the programmers' troops. However, Li Huailin could not see the appearance of the people in the sky clearly, so he did not know how the soldiers could tell.
Of course, the soldiers were really a little stupid. It was obvious that the search team did not have any experts, so they did not know what gave them the confidence to shout here. If it were a normal NPC with logical analysis ability, they would obviously hide when they saw a dozen people flying over together. However, this group of NPCs was the kind of NPCs with no intelligence, so they really shouted.
The result was, of course, very tragic. As soon as the soldiers shouted, a huge fireball came crashing down on them from the sky. Boom! Sparks flew everywhere, and the area in front of Li Huailin and the others turned into a sea of fire. Fortunately, Li Huailin was still some distance away from the search team, so he was not affected. However, the search team was probably …
Of course, the current situation was also very awkward for Li Huailin and the others. Although Zhang Youdong's original plan was to lure these people over, Li Huailin was still thinking about what to do. He did not expect them to appear on their own. After thinking about it, it might be because one of them was missing, so they came over to check on the situation. However, now that they suddenly appeared and caused such a big commotion, didn't it attract all the NPCs who were still searching over there? And it just so happened that Li Huailin and the others were nearby.
Fortunately, this group of programmers had no intention of stopping. After eliminating the search team in front of them with a single magic spell, they continued flying forward without stopping. The search team had probably distracted Li Huailin and the others, so they did not notice Li Huailin and the others hiding below. The direction they were heading in seemed to be the mountainous area in front of them, where Zhang Youdong's friend, Jie Ding, was.
"Plans really can't keep up with changes." When Li Huailin saw his opponent fly away, he walked out from his hiding spot. Zhang Youdong also came out, but his expression was a little gloomy. Li Huailin probably understood what the other party meant. Yes, although the current situation was a bit like the plan Zhang Youdong mentioned before, it was still a little different because the captured programmer was still on Li Huailin's side. According to Zhang Youdong's previous words of letting the programmer go, of course, the other party would disappear. It seemed that Zhang Youdong was very unhappy that there was a survivor in Li Huailin's hands.
"Now, can we go and save the people first?" Li Huailin said as he handed over a note. Although Li Huailin also wanted to save everyone first, the current behavior of this group of rebellious programmers was beyond Li Huailin's control. It seemed that he could only let them fight with the NPCs for a while. Their current goal was to save the other group of people first.
"Wahhhh …" Zhang Youdong looked at it and nodded directly. He was probably quite depressed now, but after all, he was the one who proposed the plan. Now that these guys came on their own, of course, he could only continue according to the plan.
The group immediately moved, bypassing the sea of fire in front of them and advancing in the direction of the mountain in front of them. After a few steps, a loud noise came from the sky. Li Huailin looked in that direction and found that the sky in the direction where the programmers flew to seemed to have started to explode. There were various colored magic spells and explosions in the sky. Needless to say, the programmers and NPCs were fighting. The place where the battle was happening was still some distance away. Of course, they couldn't see what exactly was going on. However, such an obvious situation would attract everyone's attention, so their actions should be much smoother.
Sure enough, this time, Li Huailin and the others did not encounter any NPC troops along the way. Now, all the NPCs were probably running in the direction of the battle. However, there was still danger. The battle over there was really a bit of a commotion. Many of the magic spells even threatened Li Huailin and the others. Of course, it was not deliberately aimed at them. Instead, they flew in this direction by accident. However, everyone was quite lucky. Several large-scale magic spells landed near them, but none of them directly hit them.
This time, Li Huailin and the others moved slightly faster. They quickly approached the mountain while hiding as much as possible. However, when they followed Zhang Youdong's guidance and arrived near Jie Ding's hiding place, Li Huailin and the others saw a different scene.
What greeted Li Huailin and the others was a ground full of corpses. Yes, they saw this as soon as they approached. Of course, when they took a closer look, they realized that all the corpses on the ground were NPCs' corpses. After all, there were only eight people on Jie Ding's side. Even if they were all dead, it would be impossible for the corpses to litter the ground.
Looking at the corpses on the ground, Li Huailin basically confirmed two things. First, the corpses on this side were basically hacked to death with a sword. No magic was used, so the commotion was not very big. It was probably done deliberately by the other party. Second, these people had died not long ago because the corpses on the ground were still bleeding.
"NPCs can't kill themselves, right? The other group of programmers should still be fighting the NPCs over there. So, these NPCs were killed by the programmer named Jie Ding and his subordinates?" Jade Emperor Summoner asked.
"So, the programmer named Jie Ding has also come out of his hiding place?" Firehead asked.
Li Huailin thought so too. Now, it seemed that Jie Ding and his subordinates were the ones who killed these NPCs. Coincidentally, Zhang Youdong also walked over at this time. When he looked at the note that Zhang Youdong handed him, he realized that Zhang Youdong had the same thoughts as well.
"Why did they come out of their hiding place? Were they discovered?" Li Huailin asked.
"Probably," Zhang Youdong nodded. "I tried to contact them just now, but I couldn't get in touch with them. Their communicators seem to have malfunctioned. It seems that Jie Ding's communicator was damaged during the battle."
"Then let's hurry …" Li Huailin immediately said.
Everyone hurried forward. This time, it was very easy for them to find their way. After all, there were corpses along the way. It was quite convenient. After walking forward for a while, they found the place. There were more corpses here, and it was obvious that there was a cave where the programmers were hiding.
Everyone hurried into the cave to check the situation. However, they immediately realized that there was no one in the cave. Or rather, there were no living people in the cave. The area of the cave was not very large, and there were indeed traces of people living in it. It seemed that this was indeed the hiding place of the programmers. However, they were now gone.
"There's no one … but there are no corpses either …" Firehead walked up to Li Huailin and said, "I saw that there are NPCs' corpses everywhere. Do these programmers leave corpses behind after they die?"
"I don't know." Li Huailin spread his hands and looked at Zhang Youdong.
"Wahhhh!" Suddenly, Zhang Youdong understood something. He quickly wrote to Li Huailin. "I understand. We're looking in the wrong direction."
"Wrong direction?" Li Huailin asked.
"It's obvious that Jie Ding's troops were discovered by the NPCs. A battle broke out here, but at the same time, the battle on the other side also began. Although some of the NPCs were attracted here, not all of them were here," Zhang Youdong wrote.
"Yeah." Li Huailin nodded. The other side was, of course, referring to the battle between the programmers who had rebelled. After all, there was such a big commotion there.
"Maybe Jie Ding's communicator was damaged during the battle, so he couldn't contact us. In the end, he suddenly discovered the battle on the other side. In this case, I think the other side may have thought that we were here to save them," Zhang Youdong said immediately.
"I see, I see." Li Huailin instantly understood what Zhang Youdong was talking about. It was obvious that the captain named Jie Ding had seen the battle between the NPCs and the programmers and thought that he was here to save them. Therefore, the captain's first thought was to meet up with him. That was why he had immediately led his troops to kill their way out. The place where Li Huailin and the others first saw the corpses should have been the place where the captain had just passed. Therefore, they should have followed the corpses in the wrong direction.
"This is great. The three parties have gathered together." Li Huailin facepalmed. The battle on the other side was already so intense. Now that Jie Ding's troops were rushing over, they had no choice but to chase after them. This was really going to be a mess.
"Jie Ding and the others may be in danger. We must hurry over," Zhang Youdong wrote.
Li Huailin did not know if Zhang Youdong was really worried about Jie Ding or if he had other motives, but it was not a problem to rush over immediately. That was what Li Huailin was thinking too, so the troops immediately turned around and rushed over to the place where the battle was the fiercest.
