Chapter 26 (1/2)

“All right, Blackie, we’ll rest here today.” Qin Hao patted Blackie’s back and said.

Kriikk! Blackie was intelligent, and at this moment, it can already understand some simple human language, and so it stood still obediently.

Qin Hao leaped down from Blackie’s back, and then tossed it two pieces of roast meat. After this bugger had eaten cooked food, it no longer had any interest in raw meat anymore.

After looking around, Qin Hao chose a big tree that would need two people to circle it. He planned to rest on it for the night. Firstly, he was still not completely at ease with Blackie, and secondly, it was to prevent some insects or pests in the forest from disturbing him.

Chop chop… With just a few cuts, Qin Hao had trimmed a branch into a place suitable for sleeping. He then took a rope out from his backpack and fixed himself onto the branch.

“Blackie, you find a place to rest. We’ll move out again tomorrow!” Qin Hao shouted toward the bottom of the tree.

Krik! Blackie answered him, and then directly took cover under the tree, no one knew whether it was sleeping or standing guard for Qin Hao.

No one would be able to sleep securely overnight in a jungle, especially alone, and Qin Hao was no exception. Even when the sky turned dark very early, and Qin Hao was exhausted, he could not sleep at all.

“Sigh, I don’t know what’s going on at Coales Valley…” Qin Hao sighed. He was just a footslogger, and his battlefield recorder had limited functions, and could not connect to the battlefield network, and naturally would not know the real-time information of the theater.

“Forget it, I should be able to reach Coales Valley before noon tomorrow. With Blackie, the speed of my journey was indeed much faster.” Qin Hao shook his head and tried to not let himself think about those annoying things.

No one knew how long had passed, and Qin Hao fell asleep in a daze. The rainforest was extremely quiet, there were no cries of insects or birds, and it was unbelievably peaceful.

Booom!!! Suddenly, a loud bang rang out from afar, and instantly woke Qin Hao from his sleep.

“What’s going on?!” Qin Hao looked in the direction of the noise. As the tree he was on was very high up, he could see what was going on in the distance.

Flames were burning at the tail of a transport ship, and it was tumbling toward Qin Hao. While Qin Hao only had a high school education and was only the lowest mechanized infantry, he could see that this transport ship could not fly far. Its tail was spewing black smoke, and its body was already tilting sideways extremely. It was clear that the engine on one side had stopped.

Buzzzz… Booom!!! The transport ship brought billowing smoke in its wake, and crashed in Qin Hao’s direction, and landed about ten kilometers away from Qin Hao’s location.

“Blackie! Wake up! Come with me to rescue people!” Qin Hao untied the rope and jumped off the tree branch.

Kriik! Blackie too was awakened by the explosion just now. So, as soon as Qin Hao, it picked up Qin Hao and hurried toward the location of the crash.

“Tap tap tap….” Blackie’s four legs moved fast, traversing the dense jungle as if it was walking on flat ground. After getting rid of the parasite, its speed was even faster.

“Faster! Faster!” Qin Hao urged. While he never considered himself a hero, as a social creature, it was almost an instinct for human beings to rescue their companions.
