55. Chapter X

A peach blossom was planted in the sea of roses, and the man painted under the peach blossom tree.

"・・・・・・ there are too many roses, so we always have to change the flowers." The man was more like explaining.

A peach blossom petal flew in front of Wei Shengqing's eyes, and she shook her head, and she saw that the book of life and death was placed in front of her at some point, and the peach blossoms on it were mysteriously blooming.

"What's wrong with you? Did you hear me? Ruoxue stood behind Wei Shengqing, her wide cloak covering herself tightly, and she said, "You can't use energy in this place, so Rui Xue can see me, you can help me take cover." ”

Ruoxue's voice was a little pleading, but there was no room for comment between the words.

Wei Shengqing came back to her senses, took a look at the current situation in the main hall, and found that the gate had been buried, and the monsters standing on both sides did not move at all, and there was a smell of dust in the air, which made Rui Xue, who had just woken up, cough twice.

"I, where?" Rui Xue was a little dazed.

Wei Shengqing didn't know how to explain, but said, "Don't worry, I'll take you out." ”

Rui Xue's expression calmed down, and when she saw Ruoxue standing tightly behind Wei Shengqing, she asked, "・・・・・・Who is this?" ”

"Ruoxue." Seeing that Ruoxue didn't mean to answer, Wei Shengqing replied to Rui Xue, her tone was slightly hesitant, "She's a very powerful, well, demon hunter." ”

Rui Xue nodded and stopped asking, but her eyes suddenly widened: "Back!" ”

Wei Shengqing immediately turned around and drew his knife, and saw that distorted air appeared in the collapsed place, Ruoxue said in a low voice: "It's not good, if the energy appears, these monsters will wake up." ”

This Wei Shengqing saw it for the first time, the eyes of the monsters on both sides moved slightly, and they were about to wake up, Wei Shengqing didn't know Ruoxue's current mood, but she had a chill behind her.

"There are ancient generals, withdraw."

"And what about that woman?"

"Do you want your life or do you want allegiance?"

Two voices came from the other end of the space, and the next moment the distorted place returned to calm, and the monster turned into a stiff posture again.

After relaxing for a moment, Wei Shengqing became nervous again.

A loud roar came from the entrance of the gate, and the dust that buried the gate trembled slightly, and the sound of the organic qì sounded carefully.

"Lord Shenqing, are you in there? Let's dig a passage right away! "When the shaking subsided, someone's call came faintly from there.

"Yes." Wei Shengqing didn't know if the other party could hear it, but he still replied, at least it could make Rui Xue feel at ease. Ordinary people experience this kind of scene with a sense of unreality.

Holding Rui Xue's hand, Wei Shengqing gave her an encouraging and reassuring look.

Rui Xue didn't speak, she didn't seem to come back to her senses, her eyes swept over Rui Xue, "・・・・・・ she has a familiar feeling." ”

It can be seen with the naked eye that Ruoxue's body trembled slightly, Wei Shengqing didn't know whether to open her mouth or not, she shouldn't be qualified to meddle in the matter between these two people.

Ruoxue didn't respond to Rui Xue, she didn't even look at her, Wei Shengqing didn't know what Ruoxue was running away from.

The efficiency of the Demon Hunting Guild was very fast, and a passage was cleared in no time.

"Is there any danger happening?" There was no trace of surprise in Si Chu's eyes when he saw the three people coming out, maybe Ruo Xue had already told Si Chu that he would go in with Rui Xue?

Si Chu didn't directly ask Wei Shengqing if he had obtained the book of life and death, but the hope in his eyes was obvious to anyone with a discerning eye.

Wei Shengqing hesitated, but still took out the book of life and death.

"I guess I got it. But・・・・・・" She was interrupted by Ruoxue before she could finish speaking.

"Do you know why the third man went in with the Book of Life and Death?"

"A belief." The words blurted out made Wei Shengqing stunned.

"Human beings often don't need the help of anything really powerful, they just need a belief to develop their own potential." Ruoxue's voice suddenly intensified: "And the potential of human beings is the most powerful energy in the world. ”

Using faith to stimulate potential, and potential can derive energy・・・・・・ Wei Shengqing suddenly had an understanding of the so-called energy.

Perhaps, in time, without the help of the Lord God, she will be able to develop her own energy.

But it is impossible now, Si Chu and Ruo Xue don't know what to say, and after sending Rui Xue to the center of the demon hunter for protection, Si Chu began to dispatch people.

"We will now send three death squads, one team to attract monsters, the second team to sweep the formation to cover, and the third team to enter the research base to grab the data, after the data is rescued, we will be able to use nuclear weapons, and even the book of life and death to deal with the monsters. Who wants to be a member of the death squad now, and is there a team? ”

Si Chu shouted from a high place, and his voice spread far away.

The first team was simply sent to death, Wei Shengqing thought that no one would report it, but he didn't expect that as soon as Si Chu's words fell, a man raised his hand: "I! ”

It was the man Wei Shengqing saw at the beginning who begged for help for his daughter. He now had one leg cut off at the root, and he had bandages around his chest.

The man may have really wanted to die with the monsters, maybe it was just the guild's nursery, but in any case, after him, three or four more people raised their hands, most of them disabled and injured.

"The members of the death squad will have the best possible sacrifices, including caring for their families for the rest of their lives." Ruoxue didn't know when she stood behind Wei Shengqing, "Let's go to the research base together." ”

Wei Shengqing frowned at her.

"Those three death squads are cannon fodder, to cover us, otherwise the guild won't let the demon hunter with a broken arm and leg be used as a catch--it would be too easy to expose." Ruoxue said calmly, but Wei Shengqing felt cold in her heart, "Those people, it's better not to know the truth." ”

Speechless, Wei Shengqing glanced in Rui Xue's direction.

"Don't worry, the guild's preparations will take about a month, and those monsters have been very quiet recently, if it weren't for the top ten generals who appeared in the ruins just now, I wouldn't want to touch their heads."

Ruoxue has been a little weird recently, Wei Shengqing's eyes sank, "Explain so much to me, it's not like your style." ”

"Because to cultivate you, we also need a ・・・・・・ Ruoxue." Ruoxue's words seemed to have something to say, and Wei Shengqing asked, "Why me?" ”

"Well, you're too much like me." Her expression was not seen by Wei Shengqing, and her tone was not shocked.

Both fell silent.

The wind blows gently, and the long strands of snow are like the mystery of the first sight.

Maybe for the Demon Hunter, it is an obsession to be able to let peace be born in her own hands, it turns out that Wei Shengqing can't understand it, but after staying in this world for a while, she can also faintly empathize.

The roots of these people are in this world, just like Wei Shengqing, who has experienced so many worlds, but what they love the most in their hearts is the real world where they were born and raised.

Si Chu dragged the book of life and death to see off the members of the death squad, and it seemed that success or failure was in one fell swoop.

"Why did you choose to end it so early?" Si Chu asked Ruoxue in a low voice.

Ruoxue played with her fingers boringly, "The goal has been achieved." ”

"My lord, didn't you ever ・・・・・・," Si Chu choked back to the second half of the sentence.

"Once." Ruoxue's tone was nostalgic, but there was no sigh on her face.

Sichu lowered his head.

After the death squad set off, Wei Shengqing and Ruoxue also followed them and set off for the research base.

"I think my ability is just to drag the oil bottle." Wei Shengqing generously admitted his lack of ability.

Ruoxue was not surprised, "You were supposed to drag the oil bottle, but didn't you notice the difference in you?" That's the kind of breath that belongs to monsters. ”

Wei Shengqing was stunned for a moment, and suddenly pulled his cuffs open, and a faint monster totem on his wrist was lifelike, almost exactly the same as Rui Xue's, except that a circle of peach blossom petals fell around the totem, which was weird.

"How could it be ・・・・・・?"

"You think ruins are that simple?" Ruoxue spread her hands, and an identical totem on her white wrist was extremely conspicuous.

"What about Rui Xue?"

"I've seen it, and the totem in her hand has faded, or rather, gradually disappeared." Ruoxue said with a nonchalant look, "Maybe that energy has been transferred to us." ”

But I didn't feel any discomfort, maybe it was just because the time for energy transfer was too short?

Suppressing the thoughts in her heart, Wei Shengqing had an intuition that if she found the monster king, she would be able to find a secret answer.

The research base is in a suburb, and under a large area of seemingly randomly arranged low buildings hides a huge underground project, where the most advanced human biotechnology is gathered, because the researchers have been killed by monsters, so if there is no research report in it, then the world's biotechnology may be stagnant for decades.

This suburb is unusually desolate, and the environment without a trace of popularity makes the cold hair stand up, and the slight coldness in the air makes Wei Shengqing's spirit highly concentrated.

"Sichu sent us a map, follow me." Ruoxue walked in front, and Wei Shengqing wanted to draw a knife, but was stopped by Ruoxue's eyes.

After walking less than 100 meters according to the route, there were two monsters in front of them, which seemed to be sentry.

Ruoxue motioned for Wei Shengqing not to move, but she swaggered in front of the two monsters, the two monsters seemed to be a little dazed, and stood stunned for a while, just when Wei Shengqing was puzzled, they suddenly knelt down to Ruoxue, and looked respectful as if they had seen the king.

Needless to say, Wei Shengqing also walked out, looked at the trembling bodies of the two monsters, and asked Ruoxue with an inquiring gaze.

Ruoxue seemed to be confident, and walked on the road almost without concealment.

"The totem of our wrist has the breath of a monster king."

Wei Shengqing nodded to indicate that she understood.

The two men traveled almost unhindered until Ruoxue stopped in front of an inconspicuous building, in front of which there were large blood stains and two corpses.

The corpse of the man with the broken leg still looked like a roar, but the blood could not be shed, and his clothes were soaked with blood and stained with a dirty color.

But no one will dislike it, if there is really a day when humans exterminate monsters, he will be embraced by countless people and put into coffins for future generations to worship.

The monsters hidden inside the building are almost half empty, but the cost may be the lives of all three death squads.

Ruoxue walked around the building, rarely encountering any S-class monsters, and the low-level monsters knelt down respectfully when they saw the two of them.

It's too smooth, Wei Shengqing frowned, seeing that the central real room was in front of her, she hesitated unexpectedly, but maybe Ruoxue directly brushed the door open, and the door was dark and she couldn't see anything.

Ruoxue stepped in first, Wei Shengqing paused for a moment, and was pulled in by Ruoxue.

Ruoxue's hands were cold, really like ice and snow, and Wei Shengqing's goosebumps floated.

A huge sense of crisis rose, and she subconsciously wanted to get rid of Ruoxue's hand, but the burning sensation on her wrist made her lose control of her arm in an instant.

"Sure enough, it came."

"How are there two?"

"Whoever is reincarnated, kill them."

"But the coercion I felt was obviously much stronger than this."

Low voices rang out in all directions.

The lights in the central room suddenly turned on, and several figures with indifferent or playful expressions were exposed to the bright light.

Monster, the top ten generals.
