Chapter 199: The Situation
"This time, the attack is quite ferocious, and the situation in the country is also rumored." Shi Yuxuan tasted tea by herself, the jade teacup in her hand was obviously specially made, and it was not completely corroded under the toxicity she unnaturally revealed, but a faint layer of black appeared on the surface. "In addition to Jianghai, several other big cities have also been attacked, and several larger forces in the country have also suffered heavy losses."
"In addition to the team led by Chen Zheng who came to trouble us this time, the Ten Thousand Immortals Hall was completely wiped out, and another stronghold newly set up in Lingnan was also directly destroyed by the Nightmare Demon, I heard that except for some ordinary staff on the periphery, all the Nightmare Hunters were ...... alive" Shi Yuxuan gently rubbed the wall of the cup with her glove-wrapped fingers, and said slowly, "The Zhenwutang side is even more miserable, seven strongholds have been destroyed, and together with the military elites who are with them, the death toll has exceeded two hundred. Millerker's branch in country Z was also attacked, and the exact number of losses has not been announced for the time being, but I heard that we have asked for help from the headquarters in North America......"
"What about the government?" Shen Hao raised his eyebrows, to be honest, those forces in front of him didn't have much to do with him, although he often purchased some rare equipment from Millerker Company, but he always felt that the people of Country M were too snobbish, so they had always maintained a relationship with each other. And the Ten Thousand Immortals Palace, not to mention, has already settled a grudge with them, although I heard Shi Yuxuan say that the culprit had died unexpectedly in the hands of the Demon Nightmare, but after all, both sides have seen blood deaths, so it is not so easy to shake hands and make peace.
The only thing in the country that still makes Shen Hao a little worried is Chu Yunpeng and some of the old brothers in the fifth group of the National Security Special under his leadership, after all, they have also lived and fought together for more than ten years, and the friendship of comrades-in-arms is still in the brothers. And although Shen Hao has been away from the Special Fifth Group for many years, those old brothers are still very righteous, and it is with their multifaceted care that Shen Hao can live so freely in China.
Therefore, as soon as he heard that the domestic nightmare hunting world had suffered such a catastrophe, Shen Hao's heart trembled, and he immediately remembered them.
"Chu Yunpeng sacrificed ......" Shi Yuxuan paused and replied softly. Shen Hao, who was sitting opposite her, trembled slightly when he heard this, "Zhao Tianji has predicted in advance that there will be an extremely terrifying nightmare realm in the capital that is about to unfold, and most of the government dignitaries have been evacuated en masse. However, there was a political bureau/standing committee member who had just returned to the capital from other places, and Chu Yunpeng led six of his team members to protect him, but the other party fell asleep due to the fatigue of the journey, and the seven of them had to be involved in the Nightmare Realm with them......
"I have to say that the demon who attacked the capital is indeed very powerful, and you and I are very clear about the elite strength of the special five groups, and there are also the two masters of the True Martial Hall who stayed in the capital at the same time that day, as well as the twenty masters under him. Although there is no century-old king in charge, the number of pseudo-kings who were involved in the Nightmare Realm at that time was at least more than five......" Shi Yuxuan sighed and gently put the teacup back on the coffee table, "However, everyone did not live to see the sun the next day, including the unlucky political bureau. Of course, the official claimed that he was overworked and died suddenly of myocardial infarction......"
Shen Hao listened quietly to Shi Yuxuan's words, his body was motionless like a stone sculpture, and the tea in front of him was already cold, but he didn't touch it. After a long time, his somewhat depressed chest calmed down slightly, he exhaled, took out the cigarette case from his jacket pocket, lit one for himself, and inhaled it slowly.
"Actually...... They're coming at me......" Quietly taking a half-puff of cigarette, Shen Hao exhaled a large cloud of smoke and suddenly spoke. Shi Yuxuan, who was opposite, leaned slightly on the back of the wheelchair and put on a deaf look. Shen Hao smiled bitterly, and then told in detail about the experience of fighting to the death with the gluttonous demon king in the country of R before, during which Shi Yuxuan did not interrupt, just refilled a cup of tea for himself, and drank it slowly in the palm of his hand.
"So, do you think that all these troubles were caused by you, and that you killed the people who were killed by the Nightmare in recent times?" Seeing that Shen Hao's narration was gradually coming to an end, Shi Yuxuan smiled lightly and put down the teacup.
"Childish! Oh, I didn't expect that after so many years and so many things, you are still so naΓ―ve! Shi Yuxuan sneered, her tone full of disdainful contempt, "Don't forget, what is a nightmare?" In their eyes, we humans are just pigs, cows, chickens and ducks in captivity, and have no value other than being eaten by them as food. β
"We Nightmare Hunters are nothing more than fish in their mouths, and for them the difference between domestic animals and wild beasts is at best, except that when they hunt us, they occasionally have to risk being eaten back. However, to them our pure soul power is like the game in the mountains and forests, more delicious and more seductive. β
"Therefore, we are bound to be inseparable from them, and we are bound to live and die only for you. All Nightmare Hunters, in order to survive, and only to survive, are they constantly fighting against Nightmare Demons and trying to survive in death, isn't this a word that you often hang on your lips? Shi Yuxuan gracefully crossed Erlang's legs, her fingers lightly tapped the armrest of the wheelchair, although the wide hood covered her face, but in the shadows, Shen Hao could still feel her blazing gaze fall on his face, "Because you killed an important member of the Nightmare Demon, the other party increased the slaughter of our Nightmare Hunters, but if you didn't kill those guys, would they let us Nightmare Hunters go?" β
"We are a thorn in their side, a thorn in their flesh, and the most delicious and nutritious food!" Shi Yuxuan's body suddenly leaned forward, due to the excessive movement, a faint trace of black gas floated out slightly from the depths of her hood, and Shen Hao instantly felt a slightly bitter smell in the air.
"And we, too, will never compromise, will never let them go! You can kill the royals in the middle of them, and you can kill those terrible 'Seven Sins Demon Kings', which is good, that's good! In the shadow of the hood, Shi Yuxuan's eyes lit up slightly like a night cat, and her gloomy gaze was like two ghost fires, "As nightmare hunters who are also struggling on the line of life and death, we can only be proud of this, and we are honored for it." And you don't need to feel guilty and feel sorry for your dead brother. β
"If you want these departed Heroes, the only way is to keep fighting, to keep slaying more and more powerful Nightmares. And you yourself must strive to continue to live, live longer, and fight for a glimmer of life for more humans who are also alive! β
Shen Hao's body trembled again, and a large cloud of cigarette ash fell from the cigarette butt between his fingers that had not been processed in time. He looked at Shi Yuxuan, but in his eyes, Shi Yuxuan's image gradually overlapped with another equally delicate figure.
That figure looked like Su Yue, but it was even taller and straighter, with a heroic spirit in his eyebrows, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked at Shen Hao in front of him with a smile, as if to say: "Little Haozi!" Don't be lazy, these things have taken a lot of effort to get back, Master, if you can't consume them all today, you won't have anything to eat for a week from tomorrow! β
"See the dead people? Ever feel scared? Don't play stupid, your knees are shaking! Listen, if you don't want to rot in the ground like them, just practice the homework I gave you, and from today on, in addition to eating and sleeping, your task is to exercise, and you have to practice your body until you are impregnable! β
"Go and go, don't pat yourself, Master, I'm not omnipotent, what if Master dies one day? Get lost! Who said that you died with Master, be careful that I hit you...... You're going to live, you're going to live, you know? β
"Shen Hao! Take them first...... Find a safe place to hide and don't look back...... Live, live with those boys......"
......
"Smack." The bottom of the teacup was gently snorted on the glass coffee table, and the crisp sound interrupted Shen Hao's thoughts, and he was excited, but he found that the cigarette butt in his hand had burned to the end, almost burning his fingers. Shi Yuxuan on the opposite side had already sat back, leaning on the back of the wheelchair, and her pretty face hidden in the shadow of the hood was slightly looking up at the chandelier on the ceiling.
"I see...... Thank you, Sister Xuan. Shen Hao put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, he reached out and gently rubbed his cheek, and his expression returned to his previous calmness. Next, I will stay in the country, after all, country Z is a large country with a large population, those demon kings will not only launch this raid, I will snipe them here, and I must avenge those colleagues who sacrificed! β
"No......" Seeing that Shen Hao came back to his senses, Shi Yuxuan turned his gaze to him again, "The sniper of the 'Seven Sins Demon King' must require you to make a contribution, after all, you are now also a high-end combat power that has broken through to the 'Supreme Realm', and you will be the leader at a critical moment." β
"But before that, there is one more thing that you need to solve......" After a pause, Shi Yuxuan continued, "The time for the Chen family twins to passively enter the Nightmare Realm is very close, and my current state is a little too busy to take care of myself. Recently, the 'Seven Sins Demon King' has been eyeing each other, and in the past two days, in order not to venture into the Nightmare Realm, they have even been holding on without sleeping. Now that you're back, the safety of these two little ones is on you. β
"Well, alas, I was negligent. I'll go in with them tonight, maybe I'll meet those damn 'Seven Sins Demon Kings' this time......" Shen Hao said with his fists rubbed, a hint of battle intent flashed in his tiger eyes.
"No, not tonight, not here......" Shi Yuxuan waved her hand, interrupting Shen Hao's words, she said slowly, "They hope to go to country M, after all, they have been living there all these years, and they are familiar with the geographical situation over there and the back-up hands arranged, for them, country M is the most favorable home for them." β
"Before, I also fed them half a piece of high-grade nightmare crystals, plus their own accumulation over the years, their strength is already close to ordinary high-level nightmares, if the enemies they encounter this time are not too strong, let them break through to the real king realm by the way."
"Thank you, Sister Xuan, for bothering you with these two boys......" Shen Hao arched his hand apologetically, speaking of which, the Chen family twins are apprentices left behind by his friends, and taking care of them is what he should do, but these days, he only cares about Su Yue and Mo Chenyan, and he takes care of them a lot. And Shi Yuxuan, as a friend, can do this step, which really makes Shen Hao inherit a lot of favor.
"Tonight, I'll take the two of them to country M by plane, just ......" Shen Hao snorted for a moment, but continued, "Then in the past few days, Su Yue will please stay by your side, and trouble Sister Xuan to take care of me." β
