Chapter 271 - 270: Gas Station
The car kept moving, so the helicopter and fighter jet soon vanished from sight.
Yang Yi, excited, raised his right hand and high-fived Zhang Yong forcefully, both bursting into exhilarated laughter.
"Shall we head into the desert?"
"No, not into the desert. Just keep driving on the road, take every turn we see, but we can’t go into the desert. Following wheel tracks, we’d never be able to run away."
"But there’s quite a distance to the next turn if we continue on this road."
"No choice, it’s up to fate now."
Zhang Yong seemed calm, but his words lacked confidence.
However, they were now at the mercy of luck. Good luck would mean finding a turn before the enemies arrived; bad luck would mean a direct confrontation. In any case, they could not enter the desert since, without fuel, they wouldn’t be able to leave, and Yang Yi and the others would have to walk out on foot.
Luck was on their side—they weren’t blocked mid-way. Upon reaching a place called Kelso, they finally arrived at a crossroads with a gas station.
Seeing the road sign ahead, Yang Yi said to Zhang Yong beside him, "We have to refuel."
Zhang Yong nodded and replied in a low voice, "If someone is coming by car to intercept us, they probably won’t arrive so soon. But if they are using planes, it’s hard to predict. This road is definitely the best spot for an ambush."
