Chapter 66: Lucky Migration Team
On the river surface a few kilometers behind the migration team, a red torrent was running on the river surface, sweeping towards this side. Wherever it passed, the snowflakes were like an avalanche, rolling and sweeping, and the earth seemed to be shaking.
Listening to the noise outside and the roar of the beasts outside, the survivors lying on the shore had only fear on their faces. They were praying in their hearts, praying that the beasts would not find them, and praying that they would never make a sound.
Among these more than 10,000 people, as long as one person made a noise that the beasts could hear, no one would survive and would die here.
"Cover his mouth, don't cover his nose, don't let go, don't be soft-hearted, if you let go, all of us will be finished, you are not the only mother among so many people, you must be strong, just like other mothers."
In the snow on the shore, a couple was hugging each other and lying in the snow.
The roars of the beasts outside were stimulating their nerves.
The husband hugged his wife from behind, and the wife was holding a baby in her arms.
The baby doesn't know what danger is. If he cries, everything will be over.
Knowing this, the husband whispered to his wife in a trembling voice, fearing that his wife would be soft-hearted and let go of her hand covering her son's mouth.
Like her husband, the wife's eyes were full of tension. Her left hand was on her son's mouth. Once he cried, she would cover his mouth tightly to prevent him from making a sound. Even if he made a sound, the sound must not be detected by the beasts.
She knew that the only uncertain factor in the migrating team was the baby. As long as a mother was soft-hearted, everyone would be killed by the beasts and no one would survive.
Outside, the sound became louder and louder, and the snow seemed to be trembling, and the rumbling sound continued.
Just outside the river, a red torrent of several miles long rushed by, and its width exceeded 100 meters.
Wherever the red tide passed, the rumbling roar resounded through the world, as if thousands of troops were galloping.
Listening to the noises coming from outside, the survivors lying on the shore were all worried, and many of them were shaking.
It lasted for several minutes before the rumbling sound gradually faded away...
Lying in the snow, Li Meng observed the red tide that had just passed over the river outside through the map page.
Having clairvoyance and clairaudience, but not having a good nose, like a dog, but not inheriting the dog's best skills?
While muttering in his heart, Li Meng was also thankful. If the alien beast had a clairvoyance nose, then they would be finished.
Also, the alien beast not only did not have a good nose, but also seemed to be not very smart.
If the alien beast was smarter, the footprints on the river and the sled left behind would be enough to make them think that the prey was nearby.
But they did not stop for even a second for the footprints and the sled, and ran directly into the distance.
"Don't get up at this time..."
Looking at the red tide running on the river on the map, Li Meng said in his heart.
Those strange beasts can't chase forever. There is a range limit. When they exceed this distance, they will give up the pursuit and return to the ruins in the north.
If the survivors lying on the shore stand up at this time, once the red tide turns back, the migrating team will definitely be discovered by the red tide. At that time, it will be all over.
Sure enough, just as Li Meng thought, the red tide on the river turned back.
After a while, the rumbling sound outside sounded again, which stimulated the nerves of the survivors again.
Facts have proved that Li Meng's worries are unnecessary. At this time, no one will stand up without the voices of others.
They come and go in a hurry. The red torrent rushes across the river where the migrating team is.
They still did not stop for the sled on the river, like a wave sweeping away to the distance.
Li Meng was relieved until the red tide left the river and disappeared on the snowy plains in the north.
"Huh..."
After taking a deep breath, Li Meng stood up and looked forward, looking at the dark figures lying on the snow.
They were so lucky. More than 10,000 people were not discovered by the alien beasts. While Li Meng was feeling lucky, he also felt a little scared.
If the migrating team was really discovered by the alien beasts, how many people here could escape alive?
One tenth of the people, or one percent of the people?
No, the end would be even worse. Facing tens of thousands of alien beasts, no one could escape, not even himself.
Once discovered by the Red Tide, there would be no battle. No matter how bravely the survivors fought, the ending would only be a one-sided massacre.
Li Meng was not overestimating the alien beasts, but the facts.
Facing a group of alien beasts of the size of the Red Tide, the possibility of winning was almost zero. The Imperial Spearmen and the Imperial Archers were not good, even if they were of the same size and number.
Unless there was a mechanized armored division of China before the outbreak of the nuclear war, it would be possible to defeat the Red Tide.
But this is just a possibility. The alien beasts are too strong. Their claws and teeth are enough to tear steel. The red dog is only the weakest species in the alien beast group. There are more powerful species in the alien beast group.
As Li Meng stood up, the army stood up with him. Seeing the army stand up, the survivors lying in the snow also climbed up one by one, with frightened expressions on their faces.
"Let's go, let's go, keep moving forward..."
Amidst the shouts, the migrating team returned to the river, pulling the sled forward, and the long team appeared on the river again.
"How did he know?"
In the back, Chen Tianyou, who was with Zhao Tai, looked at the army moving forward on the snow in front of him, and muttered in his heart.
He had been with the Governor before, and the Governor had never left. How did he know that the red tide was coming?
Could it be that the Governor had a remote communicator used by the new humans?
For the migrating team, the red tide was just a frightening episode. When the danger was gone, the road to go still had to be taken. Not only had to go, but also had to go quickly, otherwise, they would not be able to reach their destination before dark.
Once they could not reach their destination and there was no suitable place to stay, the cold environment would become a real death god.
It was not until nearly noon that the migrating team left the river and advanced to the northeast...
Li Meng was lucky, and the migrating team was also lucky. When it was getting dark, the migrating team finally arrived at their destination.
"Here they come, here they come..."
Outside the underground logistics exit of Qing'an Shelter, Meng Wuwei and Zhu Wei, who had already received the news, were waiting outside.
They were not the only two of them, there were nearly a hundred people on the road around them.
At the end of the road in the north, Meng Wuwei saw a dark mass of figures...
