Chapter 1313: Truck Driver
(I’m sorry, the previous chapter was written in a hurry, but I found a bug in it. I’m not satisfied, so I rewrote it. The main point is the previous part. Just Click on the title of the chapter and download it again. I apologize again, but today is the first update.)
Four hours later, Zhang Heng stopped the Amga45 again. He hadn’t reached the destination yet, but he decided to go to the toilet in the service area. He washed his face with warm water that was already a little hot from the sun, then, he ordered a hot and dry noodle for lunch in the lobby.
He held the ordinary-looking hot and dry noodle in his hand and found the innermost corner. As he ate the noodles, he spread the map in his hand on the table. On it was the location he had marked when he first measured it, then, Zhang Heng used his phone to open the weather website and looked up the recent weather changes in the vicinity.
Zhang Heng’s idea was simple. Thor was the god of thunder, and his combat ability was the strongest during thunderstorms. If he had fought someone on the way to escape, then the local weather would probably change as well. In other words.., he needed to pay special attention to the areas with thunderstorms in the vicinity.
After a while, Zhang Heng circled a few places where it had rained. At that moment, a voice in front of him asked, “Is there anyone here?”
Zhang Heng raised his head and saw an unusually tall man. His initial estimate was that he was over 1.9 meters tall. He had a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and broad shoulders. He was wearing a t-shirt that had been washed until it was a little white, in his hand was a bowl of master Kang’s beef noodles that had just been watered. He stood out from the crowd.
Zhang Heng looked at the hall. It was already lunchtime, and this was a large service area with a large flow of people. In a short while, it was already full, so the people who came later could only discuss sharing a table with the people in front of them.
Zhang Heng nodded and quietly put away the map on the table.
“Thank you.”The tall man placed the bowl of instant noodles in his hand on the seat opposite Zhang Heng. Then, he wolfed down the noodles in the bowl until they sizzled. In less than half a minute.., he finished a big bowl of instant noodles. Then, not satisfied, he ate another four beef pancakes.
During this time, he passed a pancake to Zhang Heng and said, “Brother, do you want to try one? This is my wife’s stewed beef. It’s much more fragrant than the ones sold here.”
“Thank you, Big Brother. I have enough noodles,”Zhang Heng declined politely.
The tall man did not try to persuade him further. He finished the last remaining beef pancake and finished the instant noodle soup in his bowl. He burped and saw that Zhang Heng was still eating noodles, so he did not rush to leave, he wiped his mouth and said, “Brother, where are you going?”
“Oh, I’m just going for a stroll. I haven’t confirmed my destination yet. What About You, brother?”Zhang Heng used his chopsticks to pick up the hot dry noodles.
“Free travel,”the tall man said with a sudden realization. “No Wonder I saw you looking at the map earlier. Brother, you’re in a good mood. I’m on a long-distance trip, so I brought some goods to Henan.”
As the tall man spoke, he pointed at a large truck outside the window. Judging from its length and height, the truck was indeed carrying a lot of things.
“Brother, you’ve worked hard.”
“I’m used to it. My whole family depends on me to support them,”the tall man said. Seeing that Zhang Heng was almost done with his noodles, he tactfully stopped chatting and casually said, “One of my buddies is still in the truck. Brother, I’ll go back first.”
“Okay, take care, brother.”
Zhang Heng watched the tall man walk out of the restaurant in the service area and climb into the truck. He watched the truck drive out of the service area. After a while, he returned to the AMGA45 and started on the road again.
In fact, Zhang Heng had considered asking Han Lu to help him borrow a private jet. It would be faster, but before that, he had already made up his mind to cut off all contact with the people around him, han Lu was very close to him because of Qingcha’s help in purchasing points. Zhang Heng did not want to give her any more trouble.
Other than that, even though Zhang Heng knew how to fly a plane, he did not have a pilot’s license. If he wanted to borrow a private jet, he needed to borrow another pilot. Most importantly, he needed to apply for a route from the Air Traffic Control Bureau before the private jet took off, normally, it would take a few days for the flight route to be approved. Even with Han Lu’s help, it did not mean that the plane could fly immediately. Therefore, this idea only flashed through Zhang Heng’s mind and was immediately rejected by him.
In addition to the bow, arrows, and guns that he had on him, Zhang Heng actually did not have a better choice than to drive.
Fortunately, his journey was rather smooth. Other than a car accident in the middle of the journey and being stuck in traffic for ten minutes, there were no other accidents. Therefore, two hours later, he finally arrived at his destination.
Zhang Heng took out the magic compass again and activated it for the second time. He discovered that the direction the needle was pointing at had changed again compared to the last time. This was not good news for him, this meant that Thor and Seth were indeed on the move.
In other words, the first time he calculated the location was probably not entirely accurate. However, Zhang Heng was already mentally prepared for such a result, so he was not too disappointed, very quickly, he repositioned the location of Seter using the same method as the first time.
This time, he only traveled 40 kilometers. The advantage was that he still had about half an hour to catch up, but the disadvantage was that the distance was too short, so the error in his calculations might become even greater.
However, compared to the first time he measured the distance, Zhang Heng should be much closer to Seter and Thor now. Unfortunately, until the time was up, the needle did not move at all.
Zhang Heng was not in a hurry. In his plan, he only needed to ensure that he was getting closer to Seter during the day. In fact, until midnight, he only planned to use up to four positioning times, the rest of the usage would be after the time freeze. At that time, Thor and Seter should remain stationary. If everything went smoothly, he would only need one time to pinpoint their location.
However, Zhang Heng did not give up on his pursuit during the day. According to the information provided by ISIS, both the new and Old Gods were currently focused on finding the whereabouts of Seth and Thor, zhang Heng’s opponents this time were a group of gods that could not be predicted with common sense. He did not think that the compass that ISIS had given him was the only one who could find the target. No one knew what these gods had up their sleeves.
This was especially true for the new gods. Zhang Heng had suffered a corresponding loss early on. He had been located by the phone God, and the mechanical God had tampered with the plane he was on, in the end, only he and the pregnant woman that he had saved survived on the plane. Therefore, Zhang Heng knew very well that the sooner he found Seth, the higher the possibility of him completing the mission.
