As Bai Ye and Xu Wanfeng, the leaders of the two major forces, ordered a halt to the pursuit, their patrol squads also withdrew, focusing their efforts on maintaining the order of the convoy.
Finally, there were seven or eight vehicles that escaped the slowing main force, heading towards the convoy where Lin Feng was.
Some lower-level Deserters also wanted to follow, but unfortunately, their foot speed could not possibly catch up with the convoy ahead, which provided more of a sense of safety.
And those permanent residents choosing to flee could not selflessly help them hitch a ride.
After all, they themselves had to lighten their load to keep pace; taking Deserters along would only be a burden.
And individuals who leave the convoy have only a dead-end in this sun-scorched Wilderness.
Even Evolvers would face the same fate.
So, realizing their slim chances, these Deserters could only slink back, seeking the Guild's protection.
