A familiar scene appeared.

More than a dozen slender pillars of fire flew straight towards me as if they were alive, and at the same time, the saint exclaimed behind me: "Be careful! It's Gu Huo! These are Burmese!"

I immediately pulled her to the side and quickly rolled over for a distance, but fortunately, after this Gu fire came over, it scared away the other Gu insects near us by the way, and we finally had a little respite after we rolled over.

"The Burmese, how did they find here?" I asked, surprised.

"I don't know, their use of Gu art is actually far beyond that of voodoo, so ...... I don't know how they can track down Moondust and you in some way that I don't even know. โ€

"So it's me and Yuechen who are most likely to attract them?"

"That's right, the Gu worms on your two bodies are the most special and powerful, and the more powerful the Gu worms, the easier it is to track them down. โ€

At this time, the dozen or so black shadows approached a little closer, and in an instant, more than a dozen pillars of fire hit us, and we had to dodge again.

Because so far, I don't know how powerful this Gu Fire is, let alone what happens after being burned by Gu Fire, if I can't recover normally, it will be troublesome.

After dodging like this for more than ten times in a row, I soon found that although the moves of these people were similar to the two masked men I met at the castle before, their bodies were much stiffer, and as I said just now, these guys really didn't look like people with normal minds, at least they didn't have complete autonomous consciousness.

In this way, it seemed that even if I did catch one of the guys, I was afraid that I would not be able to ask for any useful information, so I immediately glanced again at the opposite side of the fire forest in the distance, and found that there was indeed another row of dark shadows in the outer area over there.

Well......

Could it be that these people are the culprit?

"Xiao Chen, these people seem to be just these two times. The saint was beside me and said, "We can't delay any longer!"

I nodded, and glanced at the situation in the air again, the Gu worms that attacked us just now had indeed been dispersed by a large number of pillars of fire, but they still hadn't completely dispersed, they were just hovering in the air, I believe that once the Gu fire in the hands of these people in front of me disappeared, these bugs would definitely swoop down again.

I immediately had a new idea, anyway, these guys' pillars of fire can't hit us, but they can still defend us against the swarm of Gu worms in the air, so in this case, it's better to ignore them at all, and go straight through the woods to catch the row of figures behind.

I quickly stated my thoughts, and the saint nodded approvingly.

"Then you have to follow me!" I continued to say to the holy woman, "Don't stay too far away from me, these Gu worms are extraordinary, even if you whip dance well, it is very dangerous. โ€

The saint said "um", and quickly approached me.

I frowned and looked at her again from top to bottom, this saint did not look at her face, she was indeed a young girl, and even her hair was very soft, and it could be described as radiant in the moonlight.

"What's wrong with you?" asked the saint, looking me up and down, puzzled.

I finally couldn't help it: "Can I ask you a question?"

"What's the problem?"

"You ...... What the hell is going on with your face?" I said, pointing to her masked face, "Why is it like this?"

"What do you think?" asked the Holy Maiden like a moon spirit.

"I guess your original appearance is definitely not like this, is it because of Gu magic?"

"You're half right. The saint said.

"And what's the remaining half?" I asked hurriedly.

"The remaining half will only have a chance to tell you if we survive!" the saint shoved me, and just as two pillars of fire struck, they grazed my arms and flew over.

I only felt a sharp pain in the burned part of my arm, and the skin of my arm also darkened a lot, I quickly touched it, and immediately another pain came, and I was horrified to find that this time the wound did not show any signs of healing.

To put it bluntly, when my body faced these Gu fires, it seemed to have completely lost its ability to heal quickly, just like the effect of a normal person being burned by fire.

โ€ฆโ€ฆ

Damn, it's thanks to me that I wasn't careless before, otherwise I would have been here today if I had been hit by more pillars of fire.

"Be careful!" the saint said, "This is a Gu fire! It is different from ordinary fire, this kind of fire is designed to burn anger! If you let this fire enter your body, then you will die!"

"Holy!" I was startled.

"That's right! Relatively speaking, people with ordinary physiques are more resistant to this kind of Gu fire. The saint said.

I thought that if we really had to face these Gu Masters in the future, it would mean that we would be more dangerous than ever before, and if we wanted to deal with them, I was afraid that we would have to sacrifice some special means.

That is, you have to find someone with a normal physique, but who is extremely capable of fighting.

So far, there seems to be only one person around me who meets this condition...... That's Lan Xing.

However, it is not realistic to rely on Lan Xing alone, so things return to the words of the moon spirit, and I really have to recruit a large number of survivors to join our camp.

At that moment, I took the Holy Maiden forward and rolled forward continuously, and quickly burst into the woods, and the stiff guys behind me also slowly followed, but at this time, I found that the Gu fire in their hands seemed to be much weaker than just now, both the speed and the length of the fire pillar were much reduced.

"It should be that the anger stored in their bodies is almost burned!" said the saint in surprise, "It seems that they are not very powerful characters!"

I'm afraid I can't say this in my heart, and on the contrary, even a guy in this state can cast such a threatening Gu fire, so what should the normal people hiding behind them say? Will it be so fierce that we can't deal with it?

After entering the forest, I saw a lot of corpses on the ground here, including Tai Sui, bhikshu birds, and a small number of other infected animals, but we were relieved that no corpses of the voodoo "masked people" had been found yet...... It seems that they retreated in time under the orders of the Holy Maiden.

The fire in the woods had weakened a lot by now, because most of the trees had been burned to ashes, and I could see that some of the trunks were still trembling slightly......

The dark shadows on the other side of the forest saw us rushing past, and there was also some slight commotion, but not all of them moved, but only a few people in the center stepped back a little.

I immediately set my sights on that end.

Those who do not have a complete sense of autonomy will certainly not have this kind of reaction, so I am afraid that the initiator is over there!

The Holy Maiden also noticed the situation there, and without me saying it, she rushed forward, and then I glanced back at the sky behind me, and those Gu worms just now did not chase after me.

However, I still quickened my pace and chased after the saint, and now I have no good way, because our whereabouts have long been under the nose of the other side, and it feels like the only way to win now...... That's speed!

That's right, I'm going to have to give them a surprise win before they can react.

I immediately patted the saint on the shoulder, and the saint understood, and her steps rose rapidly, and she ran with me.

The commotion over there was even more pronounced, and I could clearly see that there were indeed three people in the center of the array on the opposite side who were moving very differently from the others on either side, and these three people had already begun to turn around and retreat back.

At the same time, the other shadows began to raise their palms towards me and the saint.

"Xiao Chen, be careful!" the saint turned her head and reminded me.

Then I saw more than a dozen flames shining directly through.

"Let's go separately!" I yelled at the Holy Maiden, "But don't stay too far away from me!"

Then we continued to march seven or eight paces apart, one left and one right.

The advantage of separating in this way is that you can avoid being attacked by those pillars of fire, and this method does work, because the remaining figures on the opposite side are much smaller than I imagined, at most they are about twenty, and the pressure on each other will be reduced a lot after we move separately.

In this way, we quickly burst into the gap just now, and by this time the three guys had already retreated a long distance.

Further on was the abandoned town area I had seen before, where large swathes of houses had fallen into tatters and collapsed, which further obstructed my view.

At this time, the Gu fires on both sides have also weakened a lot again, and I feel that these guys are just like some fire-breathing defense towers, in fact, there is nothing to be afraid of, and when their "fuel" runs out, it will be some bamboo poles.

The three fellows were now out of my sight, and I was once again with the Holy Maiden, and I told her to wait and climb up to the top of the nearest collapsed house.

This crawl also made me feel a powerful change in my physical fitness, both strength and speed have indeed improved, and after coming up, I immediately found the traces of the three people just now, they were resting less than fifty meters away from me, as if they were still panting.

I was a little surprised, were these three men a little too weak, and they were gasping for breath after just a few steps, but it was better to catch up with them.

I gave a whistle to the saint, and then jumped out of the house and began to chase them again in the direction of the three men.
