Chapter 61: The crowd looked for him thousands of times, and looked back at the lamplight
By the time they reached the front of the group, the rogues were already shouting and rushing over, and the two sides immediately began a scuffle in the twilight desert. Looking at the battle in front of him, the whole body of the standing on a thousand-legged ship straightened, and his hands clenched into fists and trembled: these rogues are just the vanguard, and there will be more to come.
The sky seemed to darken, blood evaporated in the scorching air, and the heavens and the earth were filled with the oppression permeated with the smell of blood.
Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yanxiao came to a thousand-foot boat behind Ji Yu with a smile: the battle in front of them seemed to be more in line with their cognition, the two sides were shooting at each other with weapons that could be fired, and they would also look for cover, and from time to time take advantage of the chaos to launch waves of charges. Instead of colliding with purely high-tech, high-explosive energy like the previous wars they had encountered.
The only thing that surprised them was that the rogues were very organized, and although it was obvious that they were of different races, they were all wearing the same armor, holding very similar weapons in their hands, and there was a good degree of coordination between cover and attack.
In the battlefield, some of them are huge, several meters tall, some are small, even the size of a football ball, and some are flying and can fly on mounts, attacking the ground in the air. It's a pity that their whole bodies are covered with uniform armor, and Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yanxiao can't see what they actually look like.
"Whoosh. A streamer broke through the defensive circle laid by the people in front of the Confuse Clansman and shot towards Zhuo Jun. Zhuo Jun stretched out his hand and grabbed the thing in his hand: it was actually a bullet, almost exactly the same as the bullets common on earth, with a dark brown metallic luster, a streamlined warhead, and a cylindrical body. However, there is something similar to gunpowder in this bullet that has not yet been exploded twice, Zhuo Jun mobilized the life energy of his whole body, formed a protective shield in the palm of his hand, and then clenched his fist with his right hand, and directly pinched and exploded this bullet with a "bang".
"These 500 rogues are not a big problem, the bewildered people can deal with it completely, but I don't think it's that simple. Zhuo Junyi said.
"I didn't find any other rogues in the vicinity. Liu Yan said with a smile.
"They're sure they'll be able to hide themselves in this desert, and these five hundred rogues have appeared out of nowhere, and we haven't detected them beforehand. And they are well-trained and uniformly equipped, and there should be a big force behind them. Zhuo Jun said in a deep voice.
"Grab two and ask, isn't it very simple?" Liu Yan said with a sneer, and then rushed into the battlefield with a golden hoop stick.
"Alas. Zhuo Junyi sighed: his wife is not only often full of sympathy, but also has a great sense of justice, but she completely forgot that this is a chaotic area, and the two of them are currently fleeing.
With the two of them joining, the situation in the field quickly changed. These rogues all have the strength of a cracked tiger and leopard, faster than the speed of a galloping horse, but they are far from having undergone a qualitative change like Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yanxiao, two "old guys" who have lived for more than 1,500 years, that is to say, their life level is not at the same level as Zhuo Junyi and the two.
Zhuo Junyi relied on the energy of the life field, completely unafraid of the attack weapons in the hands of these rogues, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, completely breaking up their formation with one punch and kick. And Liu Yanxiao was even more exaggerated, relying on the hardness of the golden hoop stick and her own exaggerated strength, she directly swept everything, and rushed back and forth in the formation of the rogue twice in a short period of time.
......"Boom," suddenly a rogue shouted. Then, the rogues who had been in a good formation scattered in a hurry and fled in all directions.
"Catch two alive. Zhuo Jun smiled at Liu Yan and said, but Liu Yanxiao did not respond, but looked solemn, and threw the golden hoop stick in his hand backwards as soon as he turned around.
As soon as Zhuo Jun turned around, a wave of qi rushed to his face, directly overturning him. At the moment of turning around, Zhuo Jun saw clearly: the two rogues who were originally in the sky took advantage of the gap between the other rogues scattering and escaping, rushed from the air to the confusion behind, and then detonated themselves.
Liu Yanxiao waved the golden hoop stick in his hand vigorously, driving a strong wind and blowing away the foggy smoke. I saw him kneeling on the ground sobbing silently, his gray beard with unusually striking blood, and one of his sons was blown in two. The bewildered clansmen all lowered their heads, their expressions numb, and despair spread little by little: of course, they knew better than Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yan that more rogues would soon arriveβthey had completely lost hope.
Liu Yanxiao suddenly became angry, and pounced on a leading rogue like lightning, and the golden hoop stick in his hand slammed down.
"Don't. Zhuo Jun flashed over and stretched out his hand to grab the golden hoop stick, but it was too late, he never expected Liu Yanxiao to have such a strong killing intent at this moment. He definitely didn't want Liu Yan to laugh and kill, because this would have a certain impact on her nature.
Even if this is the Chaotic Domain, Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yanxiao have already made up their minds: they will never follow the footsteps of the Chaotic Domain, they are them, two heroes from a distant earth.
But at this point, Zhuo Junyi didn't feel much emotion, just kicked the corpse of the rogue leader to the side, but then his eyes were fixed on the arm of the rogue corpse: there was a windmill-like pattern on the earth, which looked a little weird under the infection of blood at the moment.
Soon, the rogues were completely dispersed and hid in the desert, never to be found.
Liu Yanxiao handed the golden hoop stick in her hand to Zhuo Junyi, then walked over and slowly helped him up. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say, she just felt guilty, as if it was a mistake she had made. But Zhuo Junyi began to help the bewildered clansmen clean up the battlefield with an expressionless face, Liu Yan glanced at him with a smile, and he didn't feel any mood swings at all, as if the one in front of him had nothing to do with him.
"As I said earlier, we're just going to end up here. There will be more rogues to come, why should we break through?" the other son of the bewildered growled from the side.
He didn't speak, but once again fell to his knees on the ground, covered with the white cloth in front of his eyes, his other son. But it was the little girl named Donmentine who jumped out and said to the bewildered son:
"But if we stay there, we will also die, do you think the Deep Sea Thick Shell Clan will let us go after they capture the city?"
"Then we will die on the battlefield with dignity, but now? We have become lambs to the slaughter in the vast desert. The bewildered son roared.
Dong Menting was about to speak, but suddenly there was a frightened scream from the bewildered clansman next to him, and then he looked at Liu Yanxiao with a frightened face, Liu Yanxiao could only stand with a confused face, she didn't know what she had done wrong? He walked over, took Liu Yanxiao's hand, and signaled her not to panic.
"It's all over now, we just killed a guy from Garan, and they're never going to take us in again. The bewildered son said blankly, and then he suddenly pointed at Liu Yan and roared wildly:
"It's all you, you killed all of us......"
Liu Yanxiao also stayed there for a while, she was just angry for a moment and killed a rogue, how could there be such a consequence? She looked at Zhuo Junyi beside her, her eyes were full of confusion and helplessness. Zhuo Jun shook her hand vigorously, and then smiled softly at her, meaning that there is something we can face together, don't be afraid.
Subsequently, Zhuo Junyi walked up to Dong Menting and said to this little girl with two small horns who had always been lively and cute:
"Can you explain to us in detail what these rogues are all about, and if it is our responsibility, we will not shirk it, and will do our best to make up for it. β
"On this central axis, there is an area that neither the Tianyu Wing Clan nor the Deep Sea Thick Shell Clan can control, from Yafu Tu City in the east to a far away location in the west, I don't know where it is. On this long line, there are many cities, and there are also some thieves who wander between these cities, they have no fixed residence, they come and go like the wind, fierce and cruel, and the civilizations that want to take refuge in these cities are their predatory targets. And these cities are also inextricably linked with these rogues, and some city forces will even directly send people to pretend to be rogues in nearby areas. Donmentine explained.
"If other civilizations join these cities, wouldn't these cities have grown stronger, and why would they do this?" asked Zhuo Junyi.
"It depends on the situation, some civilizations are strong, and they naturally have too late to welcome them, while others are very weak, like us, they don't look down on them at all. Therefore, it is in their best interest to let the rogues plunder us clean. Donentine said hatefully.
"What can you do if you go to such a city?" Liu Yanxiao finally spoke.
"At least we can live, and our people won't be exterminated in the Chaos Realm. The bewildered son said.
Liu Yanxiao had no choice but to shut up, she and Zhuo Jun would rather die than give in, and would never go to a place like Jialan City to seek refuge. But it's hard to say what others think, not to mention that there are 5,000 people in the bewildered clan, and the lives of so many people are enough for them to make any compromise.
Zhuo Junyi also felt that the matter was a bit serious, and it seemed that there was no solution left, only a dead knot. After thinking carefully for a while, Zhuo Junyi asked again:
"Were you sure that the city would have taken you in, and in this situation, if the city was completely impossible, could you choose another city?"
"It was possible that the city of Garan would have taken us in, although it was almost small, but we could go to other cities, and if we went down this line, there would be hope after all. And now...... We can't get past this level in Garan, and they won't let us go. He stood up and said in a low and desperate voice.
Liu Yanxiao took a step forward and came to the front of the puzzle, she not only felt desperate at the moment, but also blamed herself. She was about to say something to Ji Yu, but Zhuo Junyi interrupted her and shook her hand again. After that, Zhuo Junyi still didn't have much change in his expression and said to the confusion:
"Brother Confusion, we are indeed responsible for this matter, if you can choose a second city, we will do our best to escort you there, we can always think of a way. Also, in addition, with the rich experience of Brother Yi in the Troubled Realm, can you find other solutions to the problem?, because I still think that it may not be a wise choice for your people to take refuge in a city like Garan. β
He lowered his head and was silent, his old face was expressionless, but Dongmenting said at this time:
"Actually, we can go to other planets, and I think it's best to leave here. β
After Liu Yanxiao heard Dong Menting's words, her eyes immediately lit up: They can find a way to send these people to other planets, even the planet of the barbarians, anyway, aren't Xie Fatzi and the others, and the drunken clansmen also living there?
"With all the resources we have now, we can go on a two-year interstellar trip, and we can reach the neighboring planets, but we only have one chance. Puzzle finally said.
Liu Yan just wanted to speak after hearing this, but Zhuo Junyi interrupted her by speaking first:
"Brother Confuse, do you have any concerns about going to a nearby planet?"
"This is simply looking for death, within the scope of the chaotic domain, two years of interstellar travel in our current state, this is simply impossible. Even if we were lucky enough to get to a nearby planet, we wouldn't be able to survive there when the resources were exhausted, and it might be worse than this one. The bewildered son said.
Zhuo Junyi has nothing to say at this time, what the son of the bewilderment said is very right, otherwise they would have migrated to another planet a long time ago. The distance between the two planets in the Chaotic Domain is half an angle apart, and one year is equivalent to more than seventy years on Earth, and if you travel here for two years, it is indeed an incomparably long time, not to mention that the Chaotic Domain itself is fiercely competitive and full of various dangers. The difference between civilizations here is too great: it is not difficult for advanced civilizations to cross the entire chaotic domain, and powerful life forms such as Zhuo Jun and one or two can also embed themselves in the universe to carry out cosmic drift, directly crossing the distance of light years between planets, but for these people, it is extremely difficult to get out of a planet.
"It would be nice if we could find another planet in the universe, I really want to get out of the Chaos Realm, and it would be nice if I could go back to our home planet. Donmentine sighed under his breath.
"You two bastards, you killed us when you first came, why are you staying here?" the bewildered son suddenly erupted, smiling at Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yan.
"Shut up. His eyes were wide open, his white beard trembled, and he said angrily to his son:
"When have we ever chased a guest away? Is this hospitality? Besides, it's not their fault, they're kind enough to help. Those rogues have slaughtered and robbed us, and if they are innocent, no matter who they are, they can kill them. β
Liu Yanxiao helped the confusion into the thousand-foot boat, she really didn't know what to do at the moment. But one thing she knew very well was that she could not walk away, and no matter how disrespectful her son was, she would choose to endure it silently, because it was the result of her reckless behavior.
Zhuo Jun patted Dong Menting's shoulder, smiled kindly at her, and then followed Liu Yan's smile into the thousand-foot boat.
He sat down in his chair, the blow of all this was too great for him, and he seemed to be much older. Liu Yan smiled and held her hand tightly, how could the apologies in her heart be expressed in words? If she could, she would rather choose to explain everything with actions.
"You guys should rest for two days or go, it's impossible for us to go to Garan City. I know this very well, and I can't blame you, you have to live well in the Chaos Domain in the future, and go back to your home planet if you have the chance, the Chaos Domain is not worth your stay for a long time. He stroked Liu Yanxiao's hair, and there was a trace of helpless despair hidden in his kind words.
After comforting Zhuo Junyi and Liu Yanxiao returned to their room, Liu Yanxiao's mood was still low, and finally she said bitterly to Zhuo Junyi:
"Think of a way, if I kill them, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life, I know you must have a way. You can come up with a way to do it every time we face a difficult situation, as you did before, right?"
"No, every time we have a problem, it's not me who solves it, it's us. Zhuo Junyi smiled at Liu Yan and said softly, and then he changed his tone again, and continued with a hint of violence:
"I don't think it's that simple, it's all too much of a coincidence, I don't believe in any coincidences. β
"What do you mean?" Liu Yan stared at Zhuo Junyi with a smile.
"I've never been afraid of people lying to me, and that's how I used to be when I was here. Others can lie to me for a while, but one day I will figure everything out, as long as your heart is not blinded by anything, and your mind is above all constraints, then there is nothing that cannot be understood. Now think about it, what is it that blinds you? You're smart and strong. Zhuo Jun looked at Liu Yan and smiled.
"Are you saying that the Temptation deceived us? for the map with planets suitable for life?" Liu Yan said with a puzzled smile.
"I think it's very likely, after all, in the shadows, there are a lot of enemies that we don't know are staring at us, and now I'm the only one who is exposed to us. β
"How is this possible? They moved their tribe, and we took the initiative to find them first, okay? Also, I killed the leader of the rogue on my own spur of the moment, which led to their current crisis, and all of this behavior was done according to our own will? It has nothing to do with anyone else. Liu Yanxiao didn't believe Zhuo Junyi's statement.
"Isn't this kind of trick a great trick to go to war and play with people's hearts? If someone is really secretly dealing with us, then what is it to get 5,000 actors? What is it to kill a son? What they are planning is a planet that can spontaneously transform life, which is a priceless treasure like the earth. Zhuo Junyi's eyes were extremely fierce, and Liu Yanxiao had rarely seen him like this.
"I still don't believe it. Liu Yan smiled and shook her head.
"The life forms in the chaotic realm have a high degree of intelligence, and the two of us have been exposed to their vision for a long time, so they know us very well and know what kind of people we are. Those twelve crabs not only showed them our strength, but also our determination. So, they know that it's useless to force us, and even if we die, it's impossible to hand over the map, so I think they're going to change their approach and use a completely different approach to us. Zhuo Jun stared at Liu Yan and smiled, his tone low and intense.
He wasn't really sure what he thought, but he had to, skepticism was very important in many cases, and he desperately needed Liu Yanxiao to help him firm up his inner thoughts.
Because the two of them want to survive in this dangerous chaotic domain, even if there is only 1% suspiciousness, Zhuo Junyi will use 100% determination to verify it.
But Liu Yanxiao couldn't support Zhuo Junyi at the moment, she stopped talking, and her heart was completely messed up.
Confused means that you don't know something, and confused means that you can't be sure of something, and even if you are sure, you can't admit it, and you don't want to admit it.
"Our way of thinking is very easy to guess, drunken and killing have casually guessed what we are thinking, so arrange some rogues to come out, we have a great chance of doing it, and in terms of our strength, the possibility of killing the leader of the rogues is also very high, in short, it's not you, that's me. Zhuo Jun paused, and then suddenly became very irritable and angry:
"I used to think that when I was on Earth, I chose to kill people, and I ended my life according to my own will. But in reality, it was not my choice, it was the choice of other people, everyone else, and the whole society, except for me, who ended my life by my hand - I was defeated in this way, and finally after 1,500 years, I really figured it out. And what about you? Have you ever been defeated by something?"
Liu Yanxiao didn't speak, at this moment she seemed to think of a lot of things, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"Do you know? The stupidest sentence I've ever said is to use 'eating steamed buns' and 'eating steamed buns' as a metaphor for 'killing' or 'not killing people'. Zhuo Junyi said.
"Then can you be completely sure that the confusion is lying to us?" Liu Yanxiao finally spoke.
"No, I don't have any proof. It can even be said that I don't care if he lied to us or not, we just need to think about it as much as possible in the way of connection, development, and contradictory thinking, combined with the actual situation. Zhuo Junyi continued:
"We can't be afraid of being deceived by others, we just need to be firm in our hearts. Now, you can think back to your past: your successes, your failures, your desires, your fears, and your dreams, and from these things you will find your strongest beliefs, because only you can make you who you are. β
"Only you can make you ......," Liu Yanxiao repeated in a low voice.
