The Shadow Door could be activated up to a maximum distance of one kilometer. Logically speaking, this distance was already very far. However, it also had a drawback. In the complicated terrain of the mountains, one could not see clearly from hundreds or even dozens of meters away. Therefore, it was impossible to accurately throw the TNT through the Shadow Door.
But fortunately, Ren Xiaosu still had "Old Xu." He did not even need to show himself as Old Xu could help him "precisely guide" the TNT.
Now that he thought about it, it seemed like the combination of Old Xu and the Shadow Door was quite high-tech.
Off to the side, P5092 quietly watched as Ren Xiaosu threw out the three stacks of TNT one by one. Explosions kept ringing out in the distance. Then Ren Xiaosu said to him, "Alright, I'll go ahead and have a look at the situation. You guys stay here for now."
After that, Yang Xiaojin conjured her sniper rifle and went to look for a hiding spot. Instantly, her entire demeanor changed. A moment ago, she was just like a girl who wanted to take the opportunity to slack off and catch up on sleep. But now, she had suddenly turned into a capable sniper.
P5092 realized that Yang Xiaojin would only completely relax when Ren Xiaosu was around.
Once Ren Xiaosu left her side, she would immediately go on high alert and stop trusting everything around her.
Perhaps this was a kind of tacit understanding. When they were together, she could keep her edge to herself. But when she was alone, she could immediately become independent.
P5092 and Yang Xiaojin hid behind a rock. He asked, "What did Ren Xiaosu go to do?"
Yang Xiaojin thought for a moment. "Finish him off, I guess."
Actually, Yang Xiaojin knew very well that Ren Xiaosu had gone to loot the axes. However, she could not let P5092 see this.
It was not that this was some kind of big secret. After all, the Young Marshal of the Northwest had just called Wang Shengzhi to show off his power.
If he went to the battlefield to pick up the axes of the expeditionary army now, it would seem a little degrading.
After a while, Ren Xiaosu's voice came through Yang Xiaojin's mini headset. "It's done. Come over."
After that, Yang Xiaojin led P5092 in the direction of the battlefield. P5092 looked at the barbarian corpses on the battlefield and suddenly said, "Judging by the number of barbarian corpses, this should be an army led by a Fang General. However, it wasn't a full unit. To think they've all died here."
"Alright, let's move on. Maybe we'll encounter a second batch of victims," Ren Xiaosu said.
For some reason, when P5092 heard Ren Xiaosu describe the expeditionary army as victims, he found it quite apt.
But P5092 realized something was wrong. "Wait, don't leave yet."
He squatted down beside the barbarians and took off their helmets and visors. "That's strange. Why aren't they old men?"
Ren Xiaosu said, "The old men among the barbarians should've all died in the battle against the Pyro Company. Now that they've started a head-on battle with the Wang Clan's troops, they definitely can't let the old men join the battlefield."
"That's what I thought too." P5092 said, "But look, their axes are all gone. I suspect it's a trap."
When he said that, Ren Xiaosu's expression turned strange.
P5092 had discovered the axes had gone missing in the forest north of the Great Wall. But at that time, Ren Xiaosu explained that since they had sent the old men to the battlefield, they definitely could not let the axes go to waste. It had to be because they did not bring any weapons with them.
Therefore, when P5092 discovered there were no axes on the battlefield, he thought it was another one of the barbarians' deceptive tactics.
He looked up at Ren Xiaosu and said, "We have to quickly inform the Wang Clan about this. This must be a trap. If they fall for it like the Pyro Company, the defeat at the front line at Mt. Daniu will also affect the battle at the Great Wall."
"Ahem." Ren Xiaosu hurriedly stopped him. "How can there be so many traps? Let's go. We have to hurry up and join up with the troops in the Northwest. Besides, didn't the Wang Clan just scam the Pyro Company? Why should we still help them at a time like this? "
P5092 shook his head firmly. "No, those are two different matters. As long as we can win the final battle, we have to let bygones be bygones."
However, when P5092 saw Ren Xiaosu's expression, he realized something was wrong.
He was a very smart person. As soon as he thought about the "magic" Ren Xiaosu had just performed, he immediately realized what was going on. "You were the one who took this axe, weren't you? And you were also the one who took the axe that disappeared in the forest north of the Great Wall!"
Therefore, this matter was very unbelievable. However, P5092 was certain that Ren Xiaosu must have a storage space on him that could store items.
P5092's mind raced as he started silently calculating how many powers Ren Xiaosu had.
He already knew about the white mask, "Old Xu."
But he had also seen the black saber materialize before.
He had also seen the Shadow Door throw TNT explosives from afar earlier.
And now, he even had the ability to store items.
P5092 could not figure it out even after thinking about it for a long time. Why would a supernatural being have so many powers?!
Before he could figure it out, P5092 heard the whimper of a train coming from the void, as well as the sound of metal colliding as the tracks were joined together.
P5092 quietly looked at the black steam locomotive that had appeared out of thin air. Then he looked at Ren Xiaosu. "Is this also one of your powers?"
"Don't mind the details." Ren Xiaosu said, "After confirming that the Wang Clan is actively fighting the enemy, we should leave. Our top priority right now is to meet up with the Northwest Infantry Brigade!"
"Wait a minute." P5092 suddenly figured out a lot of things. As a Pyro Company higher-up, he naturally knew the Pyro Company was looking for a person named Wang Congyang.
Moreover, this wanted person was very important because he had information on the Pyro Company's entire research laboratory and had even caused a lot of damage in the Sacred Mountains.
But there were a lot of suspicious points in this matter. Wang Congyang had always had an excellent reputation and credibility as a courier, so why would he suddenly go back on his word?
Furthermore, the Pyro Company had evaluated Wang Congyang's strength before. They felt that although Wang Congyang was one of the first batch of supernatural beings to awaken, his actual threat level was not particularly high. But back at Stronghold 73, Wang Congyang had actually killed so many Pyro Company combatants!
This was unbelievable!
Even P5092 could not figure out these things.
But now that he thought about how that Wang Congyang might not be the real Wang Congyang but the Young Marshal from the Northwest, everything made sense.
P5092's gaze slowly turned strange as he looked at Ren Xiaosu. "Were you also there during the battle at East Lake?"
"Hahahahaha." Ren Xiaosu laughed. "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
"You were also there during the battle at the Sacred Mountains. I'm very sure of that." P5092 said, "So Wang Congyang only wanted to properly deliver a courier. In the end, he ended up becoming the Pyro Company's most wanted person. So the power you're displaying now is not your most fundamental power. Your power should be the ability to replicate someone else's. That's the only explanation! "
There was an old saying that went, "When you eliminate all the wrong answers, no matter how unbelievable the final answer is, it will definitely be the truth!"
At this moment, someone finally solved the mystery of why Wang Congyang was the scapegoat.
