Chapter 14: The Dead Air Disperses
The blue light was like the light of death, bringing an indescribable aura of destruction, and the whole city was illuminated, and this light even went straight to the sky, piercing through the black fog, illuminating the sky above the city, and the wind was mighty, as if the end of the world was coming.
He Xi stood above the thunder and lightning mask, his whole body was covered by a dark mecha, the surface flashed with the translucent protective shield of the mecha, and his entire body was tightly wrapped by the mecha from top to bottom, and the thunderclouds rolled under his feet, becoming the only pure land within a radius of several miles.
"Damn, don't you want to be so powerful!" He Xi hid in the mecha and couldn't help but snort.
It took a few minutes for the blue glow to subside, but the temperature in the air remained unbearably high.
In the distance, in the dense forest where the chariot was parked, everyone looked over the bridge and saw the blue light over the city in front of them.
"Hey, Ling Lin Ling Lin, can you hear me?" Luo Wei opened the communication signal channel and tried to connect to Ling Lin.
The headphones were filled with the sound of "rustling" electronic interference.
"Can't get in touch?" Luo Yu stepped forward and asked with a hint of anxiety.
"Ling Lin once communicated with me when she entered the city just now, obviously the black fog can't block the communication of the mecha at sharp and close range, maybe it's other reasons......" Luo Wei explained, then she looked up at the sky, where the blue light gradually dimmed, and said: "That should be the scene caused by some kind of strong energy flow, the clouds show a huge amount of radiant energy, it should be the release of the energy weapon carried by the mecha warrior..."
"With such a big movement, Ling Lin should be in trouble, the interruption of communication, maybe because of the damage of the communicator." Luo Wei had a little worry in her eyes.
"We're going to get into town!" Long Yu took out his bow and arrows and looked at everyone.
The group of four glanced at each other, met their eyes, and nodded tacitly.
……
A few minutes later, the temperature returned to normal levels, He Xi removed the thunder and lightning shield, and with a flick of her footsteps, she gently landed on the open space on the side, and the thunder in her palm flashed, opening the iron fence.
When the crowd saw someone rushing to the rescue, their eyes suddenly regained their meaning, which was the hope of life.
"You guys hide in the building first and wait for the follow-up rescue!" He Xi shouted loudly to the crowd, because the black fog has the effect of making ordinary people unconscious, if you stay in this environment for a long time, you will lose the ability to resist. Fortunately, there don't seem to be many mutated low-level zombies in this city, and the demon forces are mainly giant ape creatures.
Ling Lin in the air also slowly descended, and she could see that her forehead was covered with sweat, her expression was a little tired, and she seemed to have spent a lot of mental strength, she fell to the ground, her brows furrowed, and she seemed to be a little painful.
This is a normal response to the opening of higher-order gene locks.
"You're all right?" He Xi stepped forward to support her, then looked around vigilantly, and whispered, "I feel that there are a large number of terrifying creatures surrounding us!" ”
A translucent screen with hundreds of green dots of light appeared in front of him, rapidly moving from all sides of the city, targeting the location of the square.
"Wait... Wait," Ling Lin stared at the screen tightly, and a huge green vortex was forming on it, larger than the surrounding points of light, as if something even larger was about to appear.
At the same time, as if to confirm their thoughts, above the sky, the black mist rolled and twisted, and the air gave a dull atmosphere when neutral, full of oppression.
"Here comes their heads!" He Xi's face was full of guard, and his eyes were fixed on the top, "Can someone outside get in touch?" ”
"The communication system was accidentally damaged just now, and it will take a little time to recover." Ling Lin said.
Outside the city, Luo Yu and the other four crossed the bridge at this moment, and in the blink of an eye, four figures were thrown into the black mist.
The point of light got closer and closer, and the black vortex above the city shook, and a huge figure fell to the ground with a bang, smoke and dust everywhere, and a strong wind hit the face.
This creature is about three feet tall, or nine meters in height, and it is simply intimidating.
It was covered in golden hair, which stood on end and bloomed with a golden glow, and seemed to be extremely angry, and its nostrils kept exhaling heavy breathing, and its eyes burned with angry flames, eager to tear the two humans in front of it in half.
It stood up slowly, holding an iron rod as thick as a pillar, of some unknown material, black with golden lines, shining with a mysterious luster.
"Gene lock third-order maturity mutant creatures......" He Xi frowned and whispered, "Domain level... That's what it looks like. ”
Just when He Xi was thinking about countermeasures, many giant ape creatures had unconsciously come around, surrounding the two of them in a range circle, and the situation was already on the verge of breaking out.
As soon as the giant ape stepped forward, the giant stick behind his back rotated with his body, and pointed forward, accompanied by a deafening roar, all the giant ape monsters seemed to have received an order, and they all roared and rushed towards He Xi and the two.
Ling Lin couldn't exert her strength for the time being, it seemed to be out of touch, He Xi glanced at her and thought.
The energy of the different space continued to come from the core of the ability, and a thunder and lightning encirclement was formed within three zhang of He Xi's body, and he was about to make the next move, when at this moment, three energy light arrows with a sharp whistling spirit flew from the sky, and at once they accurately pierced through the three giant apes running in the forefront.
It hit them in the chest, but it didn't seem to be powerful enough to kill them, but the massive impact knocked them all to the ground, blocking them for a moment.
The next moment when the arrow flew out, countless green vines stretched out in the void, layer upon layer, binding and binding the dozen or so alienated giant apes that were approaching, and even though the giant apes roared and struggled, they couldn't even break free for a while.
The cold wind howled, and a cold current surged through, and several giant apes turned into ice sculptures in an instant.
A violent flash of energy flashed, and the ice sculptures were instantly destroyed into pieces of powder......
"You're here!" He Xi had a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Luo Yu spread out his huge flame wings and levitated above, his wings flapping slightly. Not far away, Long Yu and Ye Jingqing ran quickly, Luo Wei's hands were glowing with intense golden energy, and he landed on the ground from above, saying, "Are you all right?" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, you came in time, otherwise this guy is really hard to deal with." He Xi smiled.
"Good job, boy!" He Xi turned his head to Luo Yu and showed his snow-white teeth.
Luo Yu suddenly showed a smug expression.
"What kind of monster is this, I don't want to mutate zombies at all, and I don't have a little bit of dead air on my body." Luo Yu asked.
"The creature that has opened the third order of the gene lock has opened the ancient genes hidden in the body, and even if this kind of gene represents evil and violence, it is another manifestation of human nature."
"It has normal consciousness and wisdom, it can be regarded as a kind of alternative rebirth, born from death, dissipated the dead energy of the whole body, and becomes a new life form......," said Ye Jingqing, who rushed to the scene, and she seemed to be very interested in this aspect.
