Chapter 240: The Latecomer's Robe (Part 10)
The reason why light is light is because it brings warmth and energy to ordinary beings.
The reason why darkness is darkness comes from the fact that there are too many crises and unknowns lurking under that night.
So when light is no longer needed and darkness takes its place, is light still light, darkness still dark?
Sitting on the cloud car, Ji Xiong set his eyes on those who were either crazy or frightened after seeing that Tu Mingyu and Ji Wuyu had been treated in time and their injuries were under control.
I don't know why, looking at the ordinary Heavenly Court people who were placed one by one, it was obviously the moment of great victory at this time, but Ji Xiong felt a little uneasy in the depths of his heart.
The clan disciples who treated Tu Mingyu and the others on the side informed him that Tu Mingyu needed to be urgently sent to the clan of the Zunlu clan for treatment due to the seriousness of his injuries.
Seeing that he couldn't help much, Ji Xiong also left the cloud car and returned to the commercial plaza and joined the resettlement of ordinary Heavenly Court people.
Those crazy ordinary Heavenly Court people were subdued by the clan disciples one by one and pressed into the cloud chariot and isolated, while those who were terrified and in a trance in the darkness were uniformly moved to the side of the square rest area for comfort and inquiry.
Regardless of whether they were insane or not, these ordinary Heavenly Court people had undoubtedly been extremely mentally stimulated after experiencing this nightmare time.
Only a few of them are still clearly aware and have enough logic to describe what they see and hear.
These people's gratitude to Ji Xiong and the other clan children who came to the rescue was overflowing, and even when they spoke, they seemed a little stumbling.
Since his own state was not good, Ji Xiong did not participate in the interrogation of these people, but just stood not far away and listened.
Soon, the words of these survivors caught Himeo's attention......
Neither the trance-like nor the logical, well-organized survivors recounted what they had seen and heard, and nothing had been told of the sacrifices.
It was as if the muttering of the sacrificial sounds combined with the howls of unknown beasts was a hallucination of those who had witnessed the sight of the rooftops.
By comparing the statements, it is clear that the survivors did not have memory gaps or anything like that.
However, this is undoubtedly very different from the information that the children of the Himio and other clans have.
After all, Ji Xiong and Ji Wuyu obviously heard similar voices before they stepped into the main building of the second phase from the suspended platform.
But the sound seemed to be audible from afar, and when they went deep into the mall, it disappeared silently.
Thinking of this, Ji Xiong couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart.
The situation he and Ji Wuyu encountered seemed to be somewhat similar to those of these survivors.
The difference is that the other party has always been in close contact with the sacrificers, and has never listened to the sacrifices and howls indirectly from a distance.
In contrast, it is not difficult to conclude that the indistinguishable but clear meaning of the murmur can only be heard through some medium and a certain distance.
In this way, the purpose of this sacrifice is somewhat intriguing.
After all, the message conveyed by the sacrifice could not be discerned and understood by people at close range, which meant that the combination of the sound of the sacrifice and the howl of the beast was not prepared for these ordinary Heavenly Court people in front of them.
It seems that the only people who may have heard this strange sound are the children of the clan who came to investigate.
But after thinking about it, Ji Xiong can analyze that this idea is not reliable.
After all, compared to the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Mengluo Tianque and the area within a radius of more than ten miles and tens of miles, the possibility of the clan's children trying to hear the sound of sacrifice at a suitable distance was too small.
Even Himeo thinks that what they can hear on the rooftop is just a coincidence caused by the lingering sound.
It's just that Ji Xiong didn't think about what this mysterious combination of voices was for a while, and he could only listen aimlessly to the confessions of survivors in order to find any clues.
It's a pity that the confessions of these survivors are similar, and there is nothing worth pondering, seeing that Ji Wuyu is doing a simple wound treatment and looking for it, Ji Xiong didn't listen to the confessions of these survivors anymore, and instead walked over to Ji Wuyu.
Glancing up and down at Ji Wuyu, Ji Xiong raised his head and pointed to the medical cloth wrapped around his body and asked casually:
"How's it going?
Ji Wuyu shrugged his shoulders a little briskly, walked to the position side by side with Ji Xiong, glanced at the survivors, and then said with a little emotion:
"I can't die, it's much better than Tu Mingyu's old boy!"
Ji Xiong nodded and didn't speak, his mind was still thinking about what the purpose of the sacrifice was, only to see Ji Wuyu suddenly turn his head and say to him:
"Did you read the message from Command?"
Ji Xiong was stunned when he heard this, then looked down at his wrist and waved his hand helplessly.
On his hand was a bracelet that had been badly twisted and deformed by the violent impact, and the core of the bracelet had been bent, so naturally he could not receive any news.
The damage to the bracelet was undoubtedly caused by Himeo's violent struggle in the wind curtain.
It's just that the inexplicable wind curtain also has a heavy care for electronic devices, even if the bracelet has not been bent, I'm afraid it's useless.
After all, it is not difficult to imagine that the composition of this air curtain is the same as the sound of the wind blocking the signal, which is something that can be shielded by light and shadow effects, and it is only physical destruction in close contact.
Of course, this does not rule out that Ji Xiong's actions at that time were indeed a little intense, but in any case, he couldn't receive the news sent by Ji Guangning.
Glancing at the wrist that shook in front of his eyes, Ji Wuyu understood what Ji Xiong meant, but he didn't open his personal terminal to share the news from the headquarters, but dragged Ji Xiong to a nearby cloud car, took a spare personal terminal and threw it to him.
Seeing Ji Wuyu's series of actions, Ji Xiong also understood that the news from the command was not trivial, and he hurriedly verified his life sequence and connected to the temporary combat system of the support troops.
Sure enough, there was an unread message in his combat system.
The color of the message is an extremely striking orange-red, indicating that this is an urgent special combat mission.
Without hesitation, he clicked on it, and after reading it for a while, Ji Xiong looked up at Ji Wuyu, who was silently waiting beside him, and asked:
"This thing...... What do you think?"
Ji Wuyu raised his hand and handed Ji Xiong a marked map, and replied in a dignified or relaxed manner:
"I'm afraid this turmoil won't stop anytime soon......"
