"You should withdraw too."

Zhang Ya, who had successfully evacuated to a safe position, said to Li Xiang, who was still fighting.

"Hmm."

Li Xiang responded.

He glanced at his target unwillingly, then put away his sniper rifle and quickly evacuated from the dunes.

To no avail.

This adventure, this plan, in the end only one conclusion was reached.

That's this flesh tumor, and it's not something that can be eliminated by those of them who have gathered together casually.

The pitch-black cave that was last exposed, and the blood-red eyes, all made everyone feel dangerous.

……

"What about Zhou Yang?"

Helping the other hunting teams clear some of the plague variants, Xu Yutang returned to the top of the sand dune, but did not see Zhou Yang.

"I don't know."

Su Tong, who put down the binoculars, also found out that Zhou Yang had disappeared at this time.

She had been paying attention to the situation on the other side of the battlefield, and she was relieved when she saw Li Xiang and the others evacuated to a safe place.

But now, Zhou Yang is gone.

"Isn't he immobile? Besides, he still has injuries on his body, where can he go? ”

Xu Yufeng looked at his brother with a solemn face, and his eyes kept looking around, looking for Zhou Yang's traces.

"He's so strong, he shouldn't be fine, right?"

Although Zhou Yang's disappearance had nothing to do with her, Su Tong was the last person to stay by Zhou Yang's side after all, and she was also worried in her heart.

The expected scolding did not appear, Xu Yutang did not say a word, picked up the telescope and began to look for Zhou Yang's traces.

In his eyes, no matter how Zhou Yang is, he is a patient, whether there is an accident or deliberately leaving, he will leave certain clues around.

But Xu Yutang searched for a long time and found nothing.

……

"One thousand one."

Killing the plague variant in front of him, Zhou Yang looked at the group of plague variants at the end of the passage, and a trace of indifference flashed in his eyes.

When Li Xiang injected the bullet into the inside of this flesh tumor, Zhou Yang controlled it to absorb the energy of the flesh tumor as nourishment for his own development.

There was nothing advanced about those bullets, just a Soul Eater Tree seed was placed inside the bullets.

After that, Zhou Yang came here.

"One thousand one hundred and one."

For each plague variant killed, Zhou Yang added one point to the number.

In a short period of time, the epidemic variants that rushed from the internal passage of the flesh tumor had all fallen under the wooden thorns, and the corpses had even been absorbed.

"One thousand one hundred and eleven."

Walking inside the flesh tumor, Zhou Yang felt that the taste was actually not good.

There are extremely many plague variants here, whether it is for a peaceful life or the nourishment of the Soul Devouring Ancient Tree, Zhou Yang has a reason to destroy this thing.

Appearance is justice.

According to Zhou Yang's standards, the score of this flesh tumor is probably negative.

This kind of thing has polluted the land and air just by existing, not to mention how much damage the epidemic variant in this thing will cause to this world.

"Almost."

Inside the flesh tumor, there are probably tens of thousands of epidemic variants.

Except for the part of this thing other than the surface, the main body has been hidden in the underground of the desert, and Zhou Yang also went into the inside of the flesh tumor to discover this.

"Bloom! goodbye！ ”

When the seeds of the Soul Devouring Ancient Tree began to grow in various locations of the flesh tumor, Zhou Yang did not have the heart to hunt them one by one.

Countless wooden thorns devoured the flesh and blood of the plague variant and this thing, if it weren't for the outer support of the wooden thorns, the empty interior of the flesh tumor at this time would have collapsed long ago.

"This thing, it seems better to call it a brood."

Zhou Yang looked at the flesh tumor and felt that it was far less appropriate to call it that thing.

The brood is alive.

Its internal sojourners were innumerable epidemic variants, and it sensed the danger, and in the face of such a situation, it chose a method that Zhou Yang did not expect.

It gave up its massive body, gave up so many of its 'people', and chose to keep the core and evacuate from here.

When Zhou Yang found out, the brood had already fled.

Zhou Yang, who didn't care so much about this, just controlled the Soul Devouring Ancient Tree to do the final finishing work.

When all the plague variants inside the brood died, and even the brood itself was devoured by the Soul Eater Ancient Tree, Zhou Yang showed a satisfied gaze.

The body began to slowly dim.

At the top of the sand dunes where the seventh team stayed, the place where Zhou Yang once stood.

The thick layer of sand suddenly fluctuated, and a young man dressed in a hunting squad costume slowly sat up.

This is Zhou Yang.

Deep into the inside of the brood is Zhou Yang's clone, his body has never left this sand dune, but only uses blood-colored crystals to provide life-sustaining energy.

Because of this, Xu Yutang did not find any traces.

"You're ......"

Su Tong, who watched Zhou Yang sit up from the sand, widened his eyes at this time, and his face was dazed.

She didn't know when Zhou Yang buried herself in it, but she was even more puzzled why Zhou Yang buried herself alive, which was beyond her cognition.

"What's going on with you?"

Xu Yufeng was stunned for a moment, the time they spent searching here was not short, Zhou Yang was lying under the sand like this, how did he survive?

Is it so strong for those who are capable?

"Well, I accidentally fell asleep."

Zhou Yang didn't plan to explain, so he casually found a reason to reply.

He has too many secrets, most of them can't be explained, anyway, everyone knows about him, and he doesn't mind being a little more mysterious in the eyes of everyone.

"It's okay, you're scared to death. There are plague variants everywhere down here, and if your wounded number is eaten by the plague variants, the captain won't kill me when he comes back. ”

The tiger smiled and said, seeing that Zhou Yang was fine, he was also relieved.

"I won't kill you, it's still possible to teach you a lesson."

Su Tong glanced at the tiger and replied with a smile.

Although the battle over there failed, they were not captains, and as long as they saw that the people they cared about were safe and sound, they were happy enough.

They will not always worry about the country and the people, and after doing what they should do, they will not be responsible for the rest.

If the brood could not be destroyed, they didn't want to think about what consequences it would have on Yangcheng.

Because it's useless to think about it.

Their abilities limit them, and they are barely enough to deal with ordinary epidemic variants.

The threat of the brood and other things, that's what the people of the lord's mansion should think about.

"What's wrong with the epidemic variant?"

Xu Yufeng, who had been observing below, suddenly frowned and said.

For some reason, the speed of the plague variants suddenly skyrocketed, and the pressure on the several hunting squads below suddenly increased.

If it goes on like this, something will happen!
