Chapter 404: Turning Arms

After the bus entered the anti-monster base camp and stopped, Sha Pingfan saw Yu Qianhua being the first to rush out of the car, and anxiously shouted "David" to an American who was standing on the side of the road to greet them, and after stopping the other party, she stepped forward and pulled the other party aside and whispered something, and then the person named David ran towards a two-story hut in the distance. Yu Qianhua stood there and hesitated for a moment, and finally stomped her foot and walked quickly to the hut.

Sha Ping was a little anxious halfway through, but the steam car was inconvenient to stop, so he was embarrassed to stop. On the way, a European wearing a flying rack came to meet them, he thought that he finally had a chance to get out of the car and unload some of the goods in his stomach, but he didn't expect the car to stop at all, only to see Yu Qianhua open the window and jump out of the car directly, and whispered something to the man while running with the car, and the man hurriedly accelerated and flew back to the camp. Yu Qianhua returned to the car and whispered to the three of them that the person just now was the legendary world's third-ranked European saint Steven, Steven was a warm-hearted person, and he heard that their interview and condolence group was going to come to the front line of fighting the monster, so he came to greet them kindly. So she told him the news that there might be a crisis on the front line, and wanted to make the camp prepare first. Sha Pingping was holding his stomach at the time and thinking that this time the conflict between Gang Master Yu and her father Guo Daxia was not small, she could have directly contacted her father with game earbuds to explain the situation, but she had to tell it through Steven. It seems that she doesn't want to talk directly to Guo Daxia.

Sha Pingchang finally waited for the bus to arrive, he followed everyone out of the car, and without hurrying to understand the situation of the observation camp, he hurriedly found a reception staff to greet them and asked them, and then ran directly to a toilet on the side of the road. When he was unloading in the toilet, he vaguely heard someone outside shouting something, as if something was wrong. But the toilets here are well sealed in order to protect them from the cold, and he can't hear what the people outside are shouting.

By the time Sha Ping came out of the toilet after going to the toilet, the shouting had stopped. He didn't see the grand official welcome ceremony, and the people around the car were not arranged indoors by the reception staff, still standing on the road talking in threes, twos, twos, and twos, and some people seemed to be very excited, arguing with each other about something. Shao Shihang and Qu Weiwen stood away from everyone, and when they saw him coming out of the toilet, they walked towards him side by side. Sha Ping looked at their anxious faces as if he had something to say to him. Without the heating in the car, his stomach was empty, and he suddenly felt a little cold on his body, and his brain was a little dizzy like a fever. He didn't know if it was frozen by low temperatures, or if he was an ordinary person who had an abnormal reaction to the runes in the forbidden area. He hurriedly took out the tea bag that Yu Qian had spent on him from his arms, opened it, and took out two tea leaves from it and put them in his mouth. After he put away the tea bag, he was about to face Shao Qu and the others, when suddenly he saw a small monkey squatting in the pile of rubbles next to him.

The rubble pile was just down the path between the toilet and the road, and the little monkey was a little surprised when he saw him looking at it, and then he showed a very human and flattering smile. Sha Ping couldn't help but smile back. So the little monkey jumped up and down and came to him. It smiled obediently as it carefully observed Sha Ping and Shao Qu, who were gradually approaching, as if they wanted to be close to humans, but also had a little wariness of humans.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and Sha Ping took a closer look, only to realize that this should not be a monkey. Because the seemingly fluffy appearance of its body is not animal hair, but a layer of extremely fine prismatic scales that rise up. The scales fluttered with the little thing's footsteps, and kept changing colors. When it steps on the snow, its scales turn snow-white, and when it steps on a rock, the scales instantly turn to rock ash again. But that didn't scare Sha Ping, because the little thing's smile was so sincere and so endearing. He couldn't help but take a piece of chocolate out of his pocket, tear open the package, break off a piece and hand it to the discolored monkey. The monkey smiled and stretched out its paws to catch it.

Sha Ping couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this outstretched claw and found that there were only four fingers on it. Sha Ping knew that primates such as monkeys and orangutans had five fingers, and so far, the only animal he had heard of with four fingers was a Soul Eater. While he was stunned, the monkey's paw ignored the chocolate and grabbed his wrist, and it rushed at him. Because it was too close, the change of the monkey's head was like a slow-motion replay in Sha Ping's eyes, only to see its eyes burst out, the corners of its mouth grinned to the back of its head, its mouth opened wider to more than ninety degrees, its gums were actually active, stretched outward, a pair of sharp teeth stretched out, the longest four big teeth were like daggers, ten centimeters long, originally like folded in the mouth, but now completely out, flashing with an eerie cold light straight to Sha Ping's face door.

Sha Pingping was taken aback, he didn't know what to do, only to hear a soft sound of "swish", and an extremely thin sword slashed in front of Sha Pingping. The monkey monster let go of Shaping's hand as soon as it sensed the sword's arrival, and stopped attacking, retracting its massive teeth in time, allowing it to pass the sword in a single stroke. Just as it was unwilling to attack again, an aura bomb silently slammed into its head.

Sha Ping watched the monster dodge the sword, and was about to pounce on him again with the strength of his hind legs, but suddenly his body fell to the ground with a limp. He couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see Shao Shihang slowly walking over with a pistol that looked like a revolver in his hand, and at the same time carefully pointed the muzzle of the gun at the monster that had fallen to the ground motionless.

"Lao Sha, your life is really big. Lao Shao found a small monster near you halfway, and he was afraid that you would alarm it, so he didn't dare to make a noise, but walked slowly to your side. I'm afraid that the monster will suddenly move in advance. Qu Weiwen said as he stared at the monster on the ground carefully, it seemed that he was afraid that it was not dead.

Sha Pingping hurriedly stepped forward to thank Shao Shihang. Shao Shihang smiled and said, "What is there to thank." I'm also a martial artist registered with the guild, so I'm still vigilant, and according to the guild's martial arts guidelines, it's also my duty to defend the people. The reason why I didn't hit it with the Aura Gun just now was because the Aura Bullet only targets the Dark Domain attack, and the Soul Eater's card slot has a certain flexibility, so its lethality against them is limited. When the monster pounced on you just now, I was afraid to hit it directly with the aura gun, if it couldn't be killed at once, it wouldn't be able to stop its attack, and even if it was killed, it might hurt you due to inertia, so I used my sword to drive it away from your side first, and then I shot it with the aura gun. It's also a shame that I practiced for a long time before I came, otherwise I wouldn't have been sure to hit it in the head with a single shot. ”

"It seems that Mr. Shao is prepared." Sha Ping said meaningfully. Qu Weiwen was stunned for a moment, looked at Shao Shihang suspiciously, and said: "Before I came, I heard that the anti-monster base camp is very safe, how can such a little monster appear, Lao Shao, do you know anything in advance?" ”

Shao Shihang whispered, "What can I know? Is it strange that I came to a place like this to prepare something for self-defense? I'm just going to be prepared! Well, don't talk about these useless things. It doesn't seem safe in the camp anymore, so we'd better find a place to hide. As he spoke, he shouted to the crowd next to the car, and when he saw that someone had noticed him, he lifted the monkey monster's corpse and showed them it. A camp receptionist in the distance hurriedly ran over. Shao Shihang briefly explained the situation to the man. The man hurriedly carried the monster corpse and ran to find someone to report. The reporters and celebrities were startled when they saw the big teeth coming out of the monster's mouth, and they began to quarrel again, and many people began to scramble to get into the car and shout to get out of this place quickly. Qu Sha and the others were about to walk towards the car as well, but Shao Shihang stepped forward to stop them and pulled them behind a hidden wall in the distance.

Qu Weiwen frowned and asked as he walked, "Do you really want to hide?" I just heard that those people are talking about taking the bus back, and now that there is this monster attack, I think they will let us go back soon. Shouldn't it be safer for us to withdraw with the brigade? ”

"Withdraw? We can withdraw, but I guess Mr. Shao definitely doesn't want to just withdraw. Sha Pingping said as he walked while staring at the back of Shao Shihang's head.

Shao Shihang turned his head to look at Sha Ping, and said, "Withdraw?" Do we still have a place to move? You were in the toilet just now, and you probably didn't hear the messenger shouting. Then I will tell you about the current situation outside. Ahead is already an army of monsters. I heard that now Steven has been killed in battle, and Wang Xingang is seriously injured. Mr. Guo and other masters have already rushed to the front to guard the city wall. Sha Ping was taken aback, but he didn't expect that this legendary Steven, who was second only to Guo Songshan and Alexandria in terms of combat strength, had already died in battle after only seeing one moment.

"With Guo Daxia and Zhang Daochang, there shouldn't be a problem, right?" Qu Weiwen said. In his mind, Guo Songshan was still a mountain-like existence, and a few soul eaters were not a problem at all. Zhang Daochang is even more of a fairy-like figure, how chic and free he was when he stepped on his sword and rushed to the front line just now, with these two great gods, how could he be afraid of these little monsters.

Shao Shihang shook his head and said, "You two don't understand the three-dimensional concept of this high-level martial arts battle at all. As the saying goes, to talk about combat power without quantity is to play hooligan. Now, even if Mr. Guo has three heads and six arms, he can't compete with the huge number of monsters this time. According to the herald, this time the monsters were coming from all over the mountains, at least a few thousand. If you think about it, thousands of monsters that are like the combat power of martial artists in the subtle realm are swarming in, and even if Zhang Daochang is a true immortal, he can't resist so many monsters. It's okay for them to protect themselves, but if they want to keep the thousands of people in the camp safe, it will be an impossible task! ”

How so? This situation is fundamentally different from what Sha Ping originally expected. For a long time, the scale of each attack of monsters has not exceeded a hundred, and every attack of monsters recently, it has ended with a slight injury to a human individual and a number of corpses left by the monster. Therefore, the mainstream view in the theoretical community is that the total number of monsters in the forbidden area should be about 1,000, and the maximum number will not exceed 2,000. There may be one or two very powerful high-level monsters among them, but with the abilities of masters such as Guo Songshan Steven, it should be enough to deal with it. This is also the reason why people do not accept Zhang Daochang's theory that monsters are controlling the situation of the war.

Sha Ping has always tended to agree with this mainstream idea. He thought that with the kind of magic weapons in the hands of Paul and his troops, dealing with one or two thousand monsters would not be as devastating as withering and decaying. In the end, in order to consume the combat power of the Anti-Monster Alliance, he would drive three or four hundred monsters to attack the camp. When the two sides entered a stalemate, Paul led the army again and sealed the victory in one fell swoop. Judging from the time of time, Paul may not have advanced to the middle of the penalty area by now, but the thousands of Soul Eaters have already attacked the city of the camp. If the camp does not hold out with the arrival of Paul's troops, the camp and the towns behind it will be subjected to a bloody purge.

Shao Shihang continued: "And now this kind of little monster has appeared in the camp, which means that our rear has been infiltrated by monsters. It seems that they are much smarter than one might expect. The camp is now very unsafe, and I estimate that within a few minutes, the camp will lose its effective management and defense, and it is likely to collapse. If we go back and get in the car and get together with the others, we will be targeted by the monsters. And you think that the US troops in the rear are only anti-monsters? They're probably on our side, too. Look, even if those second-rate celebrities and reporters drive back, they will be stopped by the military in the restricted area. The reason is very simple, because we are all martial artists. ”

While the three of them were talking, they had already come to the back of the stone wall. The stone wall is half a man tall and is the foundation of a house that has been abandoned. Shao Shihang asked the two of them to get together with him in a corner, he first carefully observed the situation around him, and then took out something similar to plastic sheeting from his backpack, unfolded it, and covered the three of them together.

"I don't think we should die without help, we should warn those people outside first." Qu Weiwen hid under the plastic sheet and whispered.

Shao Shihang instructed the other two to press the plastic sheeting around the ground. He whispered: "We didn't see death without help." I had just warned them and let them see the monster corpses, they should know the gravity of the situation. We have done our duty. The next thing is for everyone to cross the sea with eight immortals, each showing their own means of saving their lives. You see, the shield in my hand is only so big that it can cover the three of us at most. I would like to save one more, but objectively I don't have the ability to do so. ”

Alas! Sha Ping let out a sigh in his heart. He saw that Shao Shihang was so well equipped, he must have anticipated the current situation in advance and made full preparations. It seems that this person is by no means as simple as a movie star, and the purpose of this person's trip will not be very simple. It's someone who doesn't know who he is, whether it's Yi Weidong, who is in power in the guild, or someone who is dormant Zhu Buliang, or someone from the military, or ...... Zhang Fei's people?

Sha Pingping's instinct was that he was most likely the latter.
