Doomsday Code

Chapter 2 Escape

"Heath Ledger, commander of the First Legion of the Kermo Kingdom, leads the soldiers of the First Legion to pay a visit to His Majesty the Supreme Emperor."

"See His Majesty the Emperor."

Many soldiers shouted in unison, and the loud sound was heard clearly by Samlett and Chen Cheng who had already run away.

Hughes Hopps dragged his frail body to Heath Ledger, and Heath Ledger lowered his head even lower.

Hughes stretched out his pale hand, placed it on Heath Ledger's head and whispered:

"In the name of the fifteenth emperor of the Kingdom of Thorn Flower, I give you my sincere blessing."

Then Hughes Hopps took his hand back and leaned over to Heath Ledger's ear and said:

"I am His Majesty the Emperor."

After hearing this, Heath Ledger prostrated himself on the ground and shouted:

"Your Majesty, please ride the dragon to the sky."

Then the generals and soldiers behind Heath Ledger were a little at a loss, not knowing why their general did this.

Although he was still the so-called emperor in name, his Thorn Flower Empire had long since perished.

Amid the confusion of these soldiers, they finally prostrated themselves on the ground together and shouted to the Emperor to ride the dragon into the sky.

When Hughes turned around, his cheeks became paler and paler, turning into an extremely sickly pale color.

When he walked into the cabin, Queen Sophia was already sleeping on the bed like a beautiful thorn flower.

Hughes came to the bed, hugged Sophia with a smile on his face, and fell into a deep sleep.

Heath Ledger, who was outside, sensed that the people inside had died, so he stood up. Then he waved his hand and tens of thousands of soldiers turned around and left in unison.

Then there was a surge of clouds in the sky of this area, and then a huge shadow covered the sky.

A red dragon flew out from the clouds and swooped down towards the wooden house below. Then it exhaled a breath of dragon fire that hit the house directly. Under the high temperature of the dragon's breath, the emperor, who had lived a life of pursuit all his life, and the commoner queen were both burned to ashes.

Heath Ledger pinched the ashes with one hand, and a huge and exquisite ochre-colored magic array emerged. Then the soil on the ground surged, and a brand new grave mound appeared.

And the magic array seemed to have life, slowly descending and clinging to the grave mound.

After exhaling, the red dragon landed steadily behind Heath Ledger. When he landed, the strong wind from his huge wings blew on Heath Ledger who was facing the grave mound, and blew his fiery red hair against his cheeks.

At this moment, the huge head of the red dragon stretched out from behind him, and said with some mockery:

"You humans are so hypocritical. He is just a poor man who lost his country a long time ago, but you are still kneeling in front of him. Aren't you afraid that your king will be angry?

And you set up such a powerful seal on this small mound, is it necessary? If you hadn't been so pretentious just now, I would have chased after that little guy and eaten him."

However, Heath Ledger looked at the red dragon beside him with cold eyes and said:

"His Majesty the Emperor will always be His Majesty the Emperor, and this is not something a beast like you can understand.

And I believe that His Majesty the King will not be annoyed by my behavior, because this is the fundamental difference between me, a human being, and beasts like you.

And do you think you can really do anything to Samlett if you chase him? Even I am not absolutely sure that I can take him down.

Moreover, His Majesty's secret guards are not vegetarians. Even if the prince runs away, he won't cause much trouble with the king's secret position."

The red dragon stopped talking when he saw Heath Ledger's eyes, but everyone could see the anger in his eyes. However, Heath Ledger did not care about the inner thoughts of a giant dragon that had already surrendered to him.

He jumped onto the back of the red dragon, and the red dragon flapped its wings and flew away with Heath Ledger.

"Send the order to the whole army, the front army will become the rear army, and return in triumph."

Heath Ledger's voice resounded throughout the First Legion, and then the front army became the rear army and followed Heath Ledger's figure towards the royal capital.

....................................

In the mountains and forests, Samlett and Chen Cheng had been running for three days.

During these three days, Chen Cheng had a general idea of what kind of world this was. The big man who took him away was simply a monster.

Based on his own visual observation, Chen Cheng roughly calculated that the running speed of this big man was no less than that of a supercar, and he was also the kind of monster who could run at this speed for three days without stopping.

Chen Cheng really suspected that the man holding him considered him a baby and did not run with all his strength.

Moreover, during these three days, he also witnessed all kinds of strange creatures, as well as the strange methods unleashed by the guys who were chasing him and the big man.

Although the laws of physics still exist here, the people here are simply a group of monsters. Whether it's their bodies easily smashing boulders and old trees or their hands rubbing thunder and fire to continuously attack, these things are completely rubbing biological science to the ground.

Having not eaten for three days, Chen Cheng knew that the nutrients he had brought from his mother's womb were almost exhausted. He had to eat, otherwise he would starve to death.

This was the first time Chen Cheng cried in three days. Before that, he tried to be as quiet as possible so as not to disturb the big man who was taking him away.

He also had a general understanding of his situation. He was the one being hunted by those people who were trying to defeat the scientific pioneers behind him. Whether he could survive depended on the big man who carried him and ran away.

Chen Cheng's crying reminded the big man that he needed to eat.

When Samlet heard Chen Cheng's cry, he also remembered that Chen Cheng had not eaten since he was born.

But now that they are on the run, where can Samlett find food for Chen Cheng?

Just as Samlett was hesitating, the guy behind him caught up with him using the space teleportation array constructed by a high-level magician.

Samlett was very angry when he saw these guys. He wrapped Chen Cheng in a piece of rag and tied him in his arms. Then he took out the secret gold sword and turned back to kill the pursuers.

Although there were many powerful warriors and high-level magicians among these pursuers, they were still no match for the legendary warrior Samlet. For Samlet, killing them was as easy as chopping melons and vegetables, and these guys all knew that their role was to delay time.

When Chen Cheng saw these bloody scenes, he no longer felt anything, because Samlett had killed hundreds of such people in the past three days.

However, just as Samlett was about to continue running, suddenly a roar of beasts came from deep in the forest.

Then a level 12 clouded leopard with two cubs appeared in sight.

This clouded leopard must have been attracted by the bloody smell here. The cubs behind her were opening their mouths and making "ah ah" sounds.

The female clouded leopard also looked ready to attack at any time.

If an ordinary person encountered this level 12 monster, he would definitely die. However, unfortunately, the person she encountered while foraging for food with her children was Samlet.

When Samlett heard the voices of the little clouded leopards, his eyes lit up, because such voices indicated that these little clouded leopards were born not long ago and their vocal cords were not fully developed yet, which meant that these two cubs were not yet weaned or were about to be weaned.

Then Samlett turned his attention to the female clouded leopard.

He placed Chen Cheng on the top of a big tree, and then pounced on the female clouded leopard with his bare hands.

After a roar, Chen Cheng was picked up by Samlet again.

Then Chen Cheng saw that the female clouded leopard no longer had the ferocity it had just had. Instead, it was crawling obediently in front of Samlett, and beside her were two little cubs that were whimpering constantly.

Samlett placed Chen Cheng on the belly of the female clouded leopard, and Chen Cheng knew what was going on.

Chen Cheng sucked hard on the clouded leopard's part, and then a fishy liquid was sucked out and drunk by him.

After Chen Cheng had drunk his fill, Samlett took the leather bag of wine from his waist, drank the few remaining wine in one gulp, and then squeezed a bag of animal milk for Chen Cheng to use.

"Well, my little emperor, now the good wine is gone. My wine bag is now your emperor's milk bottle."

During these days of running around, Samlett would talk to him from time to time.

After receiving the animal milk, he took Chen Cheng and continued on his journey.

Chen Cheng didn't care about the smell of alcohol coming out of Samlett's mouth. His little eyes were always fixed on the female clouded leopard.

In Chen Cheng's small field of vision, the mother clouded leopard stood up and picked up her cub in her mouth, then looked at Chen Cheng and disappeared into the forest.

Another three months passed, and Chen Cheng had been running in the mountains in Samlet's arms for three months. During these three months, he drank the milk of the female clouded leopard.

To be honest, sometimes Chen Cheng really didn't expect that this female clouded leopard would actually rely on him and Samlett.

Whenever he was hungry, the female clouded leopard would appear from nowhere and ask Samlet to squeeze her milk and feed it to him.

This has been the case for the past three months. Even if he didn't see a clouded leopard, Samlett always left a bag in his leather bag as a backup.

During these three months, Samlett also killed batch after batch of pursuers.

When Samlett took Chen Cheng to see the red mountain outside the forest, he knew that their escape was finally coming to an end.

However, when Chen Cheng saw the red mountain, he was surprised, because this so-called red mountain was actually a very high-quality hematite mine.

Sam stopped at the junction of the forest and the Red Mountain. He took off the leather bag around his waist, which had been filled with the milk of ferocious beasts several times, and fed the milk to Chen Cheng.

After three months of running away, Sam realized that Chen Cheng, whom he was holding in his arms, was different from ordinary people. He was very smart and would only cry when he was hungry or needed to defecate. The rest of the time, he would be quiet no matter what happened.

It was precisely because of Chen Cheng's quietness that Sam felt much more comfortable on the journey, without having to worry about enemies being attracted by Chen Cheng's crying.
