Chapter Twenty-Six: The Rain of Blood
Unlike Xuanyi and the others who were tired of coping, Jiang Shuhua and a group of high-level officials quickly organized their defense and counterattacked in an orderly manner. In such a large battle formation, the role of individual force was greatly weakened, and the Gathering Pavilion gang members worked together to defend themselves against the enemy in a ten-person squad, and after paying a few casualties, the evil corpse puppets and mutant snakes were killed in batches until they were completely wiped out.
On a hillside not far from the gold mine, a group of people from the Vortex Country were quietly lurking here, listening to the cheers from the people of Juxian Pavilion, the leader couldn't help but smile coldly: "Poor Wu Dynasty pig, this is just an appetizer, in a day, the entire Silla Mountain will witness the birth of a miracle, and everything will be bathed in the glory of our great snake emperor." The surrounding soldiers of the vortex country all showed fanatical expressions on their faces, and even more muttered to themselves, already kneeling on the ground in prayer, and their expressions were extremely pious.
The long dark night finally passed, Xuanyi and his party found a cave to take refuge temporarily, because they were in a hurry, and only brought a small part of the food and dry food, but fortunately, the Silla Mountains were rich in natural resources, and there were people who were good at hunting to help the people hunt a few hares, in addition to picking some unknown wild fruits, and everyone was able to eat a full meal.
After settling everyone, Xuanyi quietly went down the mountain to explore the road and investigate the enemy's movements, and he cautiously touched back to the last night's station.
The entire garrison has been burned beyond recognition, full of devastation, and there are charred and twisted corpses everywhere, after waiting for a moment to find no trace of the enemy, Xuanyi quietly entered the station, looking for the survivors of the theoretical existence, and after searching only some residual food, Xuanyi planned to return to join the remnants.
"Boom!" a thunderclap rang in my ears, and the sky was filled with bright red clouds at some point, and the sky darkened.
"It looks like it's going to rain heavily. Xuanyi quickened his pace and hurried back, and beside him were one after another hideous lightning bolts that burst out of the clouds. It didn't take long for the raindrops the size of soybeans to fall rapidly, and the torrential rain began to rage in the mountains. Pillars of rain flew all over the sky, like thousands of sharp arrows shooting towards the ground at a rapid pace, unstoppable and powerful. Plants struggle, desperately clinging to the earth and making a last-ditch effort, and animals scurrying through the rain to escape the rain. The rain seemed to be endless, tirelessly falling, pooling into water on the flat ground and rapidly expanding.
Xuanyi wiped a handful of the rain that was pasted in his eyes, and an extremely salty pungent smell came, and when he looked at it, the rain turned out to be red, as red as blood. The surrounding flowers and trees were dyed red, and the stagnant water on the ground spread like blood, and the whole world was stained with blood.
The rain was strange, and Xuanyi couldn't care about anything else, and ran to the entrance of the cave where he was resting with all his might.
Xia Qingyu frowned and looked at the blood rain in the sky, her thoughts drifted to somewhere, and she didn't react when she saw Xuanyi coming back in embarrassment, the successive blows in the past few days had almost made her collapse.
Xuanyi kept shaking off the rain on his body, sitting cross-legged on the side to remove the water vapor, who knew that as soon as he exercised, the rainwater attached to the body immediately seeped into the meridians of the body along the pores of the skin. There was a swollen and severe pain in the meridians of the body, and there was a faint tendency to explode.
"Found the invasion of xenomorphic energy, is it assimilated?" A line of words floated in front of him, and the locust wood card under his neck seemed to feel the crisis.
Xuanyi, who endured the severe pain, almost exhaled in pain, and hurriedly clicked to confirm.
"Consume 1 Divine Power to successfully assimilate xenomorph energy and activate the physical potential: primary resistance to viruses. ”
The divine power that can be used to extract martial arts was consumed like this, and then there was a coolness around his body, and Xuanyi stood up with some pain leaning on the wall.
"Xuan Protector, you're back!How is the situation outside?" Xia Qingyu, who had just come back to his senses at this time, hurriedly asked.
Xuanyi pointed to the rain curtain outside: "When we investigated, the enemy was already gone, but now this rainstorm will not stop for a while and a half, so we can only wait for the rain to stop before hurrying." ”
Xia Qing nodded silently, silently picked up the double sword and walked to the side, and continued to look at the rain and mist in a daze.
The warning of the Huaimu brand has been very clear, this rain contains xenogeneous energy, it is estimated that it was made by the people of the vortex country, and I have personally felt it, once the blood rain enters the body, it is absolutely 100% harmful and useless.
Xuanyi reluctantly looked at the dry food that he finally found out of the fire but was wet by the blood rain, and threw it out of the hole with a raised hand. He warned everyone in a deep voice: "This blood rain is very strange, it contains highly poisonous, everyone must remember not to get contaminated, once it is contaminated, you must not rush to expel it." Xuanyi hesitated, but still didn't say the words of xenomorph energy, which were beyond the cognition of this era.
Hearing that the rain contained poison, everyone's faces changed drastically, and they couldn't help but shrink into the cave.
The bloody rain raged for hours before it stopped, and the rain that collected in the high puddles overflowed and flowed down the rocks like a stream, and the sound of flowing water could be heard in your ears.
Xuanyi estimated the distance, and at the current speed of travel, it was completely possible to get out of the Silla Mountains before dark. The crowd, who had long since not wanted to stay here, unanimously supported the decision to leave immediately, so the group quickly packed up and walked quickly down the mountain.
Carefully avoiding the fallen trees and thorn bushes, a group of more than 20 people finally reached the foot of the mountain.
"My lord, turn over the Split Head Peak in front of you, and you will be out of Silla Mountain!" The fellow folk man pointed to the distant mountain peak with a happy face and said, Yan Bi's face suddenly darkened, and he sighed: "It's a pity, the third and sixth children can't come back, and sooner or later there will be such a day when they eat this bowl of rice!" he muttered to himself, thinking of his fellow people who died in the mountains, and his expression was sad.
Xuanyi's nose was a little sour, he could only pat the shoulder of this man to show comfort, as for the nearly 100 people who died in battle, presumably the pension after returning to the gang will not be less.
"Brothers, hurry up, we're going home!" Xuanyi said loudly, everyone responded in unison, and the morale of the team was raised.
But sometimes, things don't always go your way, and with a few shrill whistlings, several feathered arrows burst through the air from the opposite mountain. Fang Caishang was talking to Xuanyi's minfu and fell to the ground directly with an arrow in his neck, and Xuanyi didn't even have time to help, so he saw that the residual joy on his face was out of breath.
"Damn brute, take your life!" Xuanyi roared angrily, holding a long knife and rushing in the direction of the feather arrow, his body was several ups and downs, and Xuanyi, who was full of speed stimulation, instantly plunged into the forest, at this moment, he had only one thought in his heart, to kill the gang of miscellaneous people in front of him.
The three archers hidden in the forest didn't even have time to open their bows and arrows to complete the second round of shooting, Xuanyi deceived himself to within tens of meters, and one of the archers put away his bow and arrows and turned to escape, and the next second he was directly nailed to a tree by a steel knife through his body. The other two archers saw that Xuanyi had no weapons, and screamed and pulled out their short knives and pounced on them to fight for their lives, Xuanyi did not dodge or dodge one claw on the left and right, and easily smashed the two of them's heavenly spirit covers, and there was no movement in the forest.
Xuanyi casually wiped the blood on his hands on the corpse, and walked out of the woods with a gloomy face to beckon everyone to continue their journey.
