Chapter 22: Killing 'Her'
On the messy ground, there was the fiery blood of the scourge everywhere, like lava-like blood, leaving patches of scorched paste on the emerald green branches and leaves, and at the same time, the air was also filled with a pungent sour smell, and the cyan mist was like a living thing, rising against the storm, and the bright red blood stains instantly turned into green smoke and turned into a pile of ashes as soon as they touched this strange mist.
"Click!
The sound of branches and leaves breaking soon came from the edge of the jungle, little by little.
A few deep voices were also in the gloom, slowly sounding: "Big brother, there is the smell of blood and fire magic in front of you, and there is also the smell of alchemy corrosive liquid! It seems that we are a step too late!"
"Hmm!"
An even darker voice appeared, and its figure also slowly emerged from the dark jungle, it was a group of people like Chu Huan and them, wearing ink-colored warrior uniforms, ink-colored demonic cloaks, and wearing the word 'hunting' medal on their chests.
Compared with the three of Chu Huan, this group of people is more numerous, there are seven of them, and they are fully armed, and their equipment is countless times better than that of the three of Chu Huan.
Each of these seven people is equipped with a low-level storage bag, which is not something that ordinary hunting teams can have, although it is a low-level storage bag, if it is Chu Huan and Tang Yi, they can't get one by smashing pots and selling iron.
If it weren't for Hong Xuexue's heirloom space ring, Chu Huan and the three of them would have to carry the scourge away, no matter if it was inconvenient for the party.
The leader gradually revealed his face, it was a strong man with scars on his face, these scars are not too much to say that he is disfigured, but under that ugly face, those eyes are even more gloomy.
Glancing at the short team member beside him, the man asked coldly, "Jace!
"Yes!" the team member called Jace hurriedly answered, and took out a small beast as black as a bat from his waist, and as soon as the little beast got out of his hand, it struggled to fly back to the team's waist, and the two claws on his chest tried their best to cover their nostrils that were bigger than their mouths, and their eyes like light bulbs were filled with tears!
The group of people who came were silent, and the person at the head looked thoughtfully at the ineffective tracking beast, his brows were tightly locked into a Sichuan character, and it took a long time before he smiled bitterly: "This blood is definitely the blood of the Demon Beast Scourge, and all the traces on the scene have been cleaned up by the alchemy corrosive liquid, and the sense of smell of the tracking beast has completely lost its effect, it seems that this time we have taken on a drudgery!"
Jace carefully put the tracking beast into the storage bag, and the muscles on his face twitched: "Boss Nalan, the Scourge Monster is nothing, and if it can't be completed, it's just a task of the hunting team, the most important thing is the matter that the remnant explained, and our main task is to track the traces of that person!"
Nalan nodded heavily, and said gloomily: "Yes, as long as we complete the things that the remnant has explained, we won't look at the disaster, but ...... What's that!"
Nalan's eyes suddenly lit up, and he walked straight to a bloodstained bush, picked up a crimson sachet from the dark ground, and the moment everyone's eyes stayed on the sachet, they all took a long breath of cold air.
The red silk is inlaid with blood jade, and the tentacles are like waves!
The special word 'Hong' in the center of the red bag is like a deep wave at a glance, which is a family symbol owned by the relatives of the Hong family, and this blood-red blood-inlaid jade bag is Hong Xuexue's accessories, and it also marks Hong Xuexue's identity.
"Hahaha! I didn't expect to lose the scourge, but I found the traces of the real big fish, the ancestor favored you!" Nalan looked up to the sky and smiled, bursting into the palm of his hand, and his originally gloomy gaze became extremely hot.
This group of people was originally the old ministry of the relict of Hongguo, and this Nalan was an insignificant son of a retainer among the relict ministers.
Of course, if Nalan successfully completes the task, maybe this family will no longer be insignificant among the remnants of the Hongguo, and maybe Nalan will be summoned by the bereaved master, which is also a matter of maybe.
"Opportunity, great opportunity!" Na Lan smiled and glanced at the few people behind him, the corners of his mouth raised a smug arc.
It was written on the intelligence that the Chu Huan and others they were going to deal with, the highest cultivation was Hong Xuexue, but Hong Xuexue's strength was only a high-level demon soldier, not even the peak of the demon soldier, but Na Lan and his party were different.
Nalan is already a demon lieutenant, and then Jace is already at the peak of the demon soldiers, and the remaining five people are all high-level demon soldiers, there is a huge difference in strength, and this battle is almost inevitable in Nalan's eyes.
"Chase! chase me, catch up with the eldest lady, and kill her! If we don't make it, we will be summoned by the remnant! From now on, the Nalan retainers may rise up and become important ministers under the knees of the remnant! Kill!" Nalan pinched the bag with a hideous face, and took the lead in rushing into the depths of the jungle with an arrow step.
The rest of the people also let out a roar of excitement and rushed into the depths of the jungle after Nalan.
The scene regained its calm, and the time passed minute by minute, and the moment I knew that Nalan and the others had completely disappeared, a tear fell rapidly, immersed in the black earth.
A figure slipped from a tree like mud and sat weakly on the ground.
"Why, Brother Nalan? is it really him, who is the owner? What the hell is going on?" Hong Xuexue grabbed her hair a little helplessly, buried her head deep between her knees, and let out a low cry.
Chu Huan didn't say anything, just gently patted Hong Xuexue's back and held Hong Xuexue tightly in his arms, and the latter was also relieved, hugging Chu Huan's shoulder and crying.
It turned out that the three of them hadn't left, just hid not far away and watched quietly, Chu Huan just wanted to know more about the other party's situation, but he unexpectedly discovered this situation.
Isn't the Hong family a family, why is Brother Nalan in Hong Xuexue's mouth the one who wants to kill Hong Xuexue, and what kind of secret is hidden in this?
Although Chu Huan was confused, the strength of holding Hong Xuexue in his hand was getting bigger and bigger, no matter what Brother Nalan was, as long as he threatened Hong Xuexue, he was Chu Huan's enemy, you want to kill Hong Xuexue?
"It's late! Now you are the prey, Lao Tzu is the real hunter!" Chu Huan muttered gloomily, Hong Xuexue also felt Chu Huan's hellish coldness, and hurriedly wiped a handful of tears, grabbed Chu Huan's hand tightly, and said anxiously: "Chu, let's talk about it after you figure it out, don't kill a good person by mistake!"
"What kind of good people, they're going to kill you, are you still a good person?" Tang Yi finally spoke, but his eyes kept looking at Chu Huan.
Subconsciously, Chu Huan is the backbone of the three.
Nodding thoughtfully, Chu Huan smiled gently: "Don't worry, I won't be a killer if I don't figure it out." But once I figure it out, I'll make the decision, okay?"
Hong Xuexue nodded obediently and cast a trusting glance at Chu Huan.
This matter was originally Hong Xuexue's own business, at least Hong Xuexue thought so, and it was more appropriate for Hong Xuexue to make the decision, but in her heart, she knew that Chu Huan would do better than her, so she chose to rely on it.
Chu Huan nodded, and flew up to the top of the tree with the two of them.
Breaking through the dense canopy of trees and standing on the top of the giant tree, the entire jungle appeared like an ocean at the feet of the three of them.
Now that it is a real life-and-death situation, Chu Huan chose to go dark under the light, so he simply stayed where he was and did not leave.
However, Chu Huan chose the most hidden place, that is, the sky above this forest sea.
In the sea of forests, there are always one or two giant trees that break through the green leaves in the sky, and the trees are beautiful in the forest, and Chu Huan chooses the top of the canopy of this giant tree as a hiding place, here, they can see everything in the jungle at any time according to their needs, but if others want to find them, the canopy under their feet is even covered by the sun, let alone three people.
The three of them sat quietly on the top of the canopy, quietly recalling the day's combat experience, and they wanted to turn this actual combat experience into their own as soon as possible.
Night gradually fell, Chu Huan lay flat on the trunk of the tree, slowly swaying with the breeze blowing, looking up at the stars in the sky, and the waning moon that seemed to be missing, the scenes of the day flashed in Chu Huan's mind like a slide.
The moves of this world are the keys to their own magic power, and they are also magic weapons at the level of magic weapons, but the moves are different, and the power they exert is also very different, and the most important thing is the 'moves.'
Although this thing increases combat effectiveness, it also limits the flexibility of demon warriors.
'Moves' are easy to learn, but when used in actual combat, Chu Huan feels very awkward, when he is on the earth, a flying sword is ever-changing, the sword fogs into mountains, and a thought imitates mountains and rivers, this is a simple thing, but it is not possible in this world.
The key move must be posed, using a fixed move to attract the magic of the whole body, which can maximize the power of the move, just like saying hello to the other side before hitting someone, I am going to hit you!
But those moves that come up casually, although Chu Huan can, but the power is very small, now Chu Huan's enemies are just some demon soldiers, no matter how good they are, just like Nalan, they are a demon captain if they die, but how powerful is it?
When it comes to the level of a demon general, the force turns into substance, and as soon as the demon warrior opens the magic power cover, the power of the sword is not enough to even break through the opponent's protection, so how can he kill the enemy.
"Whew!" Chu Huan let out a long sigh and said with a helpless wry smile: "The way of heaven is different, the way of heaven is different!"
"What's the difference, if someone is there, there will be a miracle, and the way of demonic martial arts is not a matter of one or two days!" Tang Yi muttered and continued his Spring and Autumn dream.
But with such a simple sentence, Chu Huan's state of mind calmed down because of this.
Tang Yi is right, cultivation is not an overnight thing, Chu Huan knew all this, but as a new person, he forgot all these feelings!
"I don't believe I can't find a way to crack it!" Chu Huan muttered, soared and jumped onto the treetops, holding a long sword in his hand, and the move of the Thunder Sword Technique was slowly carved in Chu Huan's hand.
"Bang!"
The electric light lit up, and then quickly dissipated into the air, the reason was just that Chu Huan had one more stabbing action, and the sword move fell short.
"I don't believe it! What are you kidding!" Chu Huan laughed and scolded to himself, and when he started again, another sword move was broken, and he fell short!
At night, time passes with the lightning shining again and again.
