Chapter 45: Long overdue
readx;
At the northwest entrance of the Black Wood Forest, the Zuo Sige Army and the town defenders had joined forces, and the team of nearly a thousand people had been resisting the spotted insects and beasts in shifts for nearly seven hours, and whether it was the generals of each team or the sergeants under them, their faces could not hide the exhaustion from the heart.

"Uncle Gen, how many waves is this?"
"Nineteen waves. ”
Du Tianwen's eyes were full of worry.
The spotted insect beasts that poured out of the black wood forest were simply countless, and from yesterday night to noon on the third day, it was already the nineteenth wave of impact, and tens of thousands of spotted insect beasts died at the hands of the sergeant. But although so many spotted insect beasts have been killed, judging from the dense impact trend at the northwest entrance, there are still more than ten times more spotted insect beasts hidden in the black wood forest waiting to rush out of the forest and kill the Zuo Sige army.
"Captain Karen, have you encountered such a large number of spotted insects in the past cleanup?"
At this time, Karen's body was also covered with gray-green mucus, she gasped twice, and shook her head: "There has never been, in previous years, it was at most one-tenth of the appearance, this number of spotted insect beasts in front of me, I have never even heard of it in Heilin Town for so many years!"
"Could it be that they all appeared out of thin air?" Du Tianwen was a little incredulous.
Uncle Gen stared at the depths of the Black Wood Forest, his eyes flickered twice, and he suddenly said, "The aura I sensed in the depths of the Black Wood Forest seems to have something to do with the spotted insect beast. ”
"Hmm, that half-step fifth-level brute beast?" Du Tianwen raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, this brute beast Ken is not something that can be formed in a short period of time, I suspect that for so many years, it has been secretly controlling the spotted insect beast in the Black Wood Forest, causing the town defenders to only kill some of them, and more of them hide until ...... It appears. ”
"Impossible!" Karen said negatively, her expression a little resentful: "Our town guards have never spared any corner of the Black Wood Forest in all these years of cleanup, how can so many spotted insect beasts escape so many pairs of our eyes?
Uncle Gen glanced at him lightly: "Have you forgotten what the biggest characteristic of the spotted insect beast is?"
Karen was stunned: "Paralysis silk liquid...... No, disguise!"
"That's right, it's disguise!" Uncle Gen's sunken eyes revealed an inexplicable look: "Disguise seems to belong to the color change on the surface of the body, but this is actually similar to the existence of illusion, and illusion is best at concealment." Although the town defenders are very familiar with the Black Wood Forest, after all, they are all below the middle of the military level, and you will definitely not be able to resist the illusion of the fourth-level brute beasts, not to mention that you have an inherent concept, and if you want to convince you that the number of spotted beasts is not large, I don't think it is difficult. ”
Karen's face suddenly became difficult to look at, but after thinking about it, she couldn't refute Uncle Gen's words. It was the first time that Du Tianwen heard Uncle Gen say so many words, but his heart moved slightly.
"Is Uncle Gen very experienced in illusion?"
Uncle Gen immediately lowered his head and no longer looked at the entrance of the black wood forest: "No, it's just that I met someone who knows some illusions in the past." ”
Past......
Du Tianwen nodded calmly, and his gaze moved to the sergeant who was still fighting.
"How long can we continue on this trend?"
Karen looked at Uncle Gen and saw that the latter was no longer speechless, so she groaned for a while, her expression was a little worried, and said: "Whether it is the Zuo Sige army or the town defender army, they are now close to the limit, and everyone is supported by will. I think maybe the next wave ......"
"No......" Uncle Gen suddenly raised his head, and a gleam suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Reinforcements have arrived!"
......
"Captain Guan, since the town defenders have joined the battle, I don't know how to calculate the outcome of this clean-up competition?"
At the southeast entrance of the Black Wood Forest, Qin Ziyu stared at the stalemate battle situation in front of him, and asked coldly towards Guan Tietang on the side.
Hearing this question, Guan Tietang's eyes flashed.
At this time, does this guy only care about the outcome of the competition?
"When the first few family heads proposed the competition, they didn't expect that the spotted insect beast would appear so abnormal, and now the number of this spotted insect beast is too dense, if they break through the defense line, I am afraid it will affect the safety of Heilin Town. As for the competition, I'll have to wait for you to come......"
"Yes......" Qin Ziyu replied lightly.
Like the Zuo Si Ge Army, the Right Si Ge Army at this moment is also extremely tired, but after all, the military quality of the Gray Army is not bad, and the overall strength is stronger than the Zuo Si Ge Army.
"In that case, Captain Laoguan has helped clean it up!"
Although these words were thanks, there was a sense of taking it for granted in the words, which made Guan Tietang secretly have a pimple in his heart, but he still shook his head on his face, and then stepped forward to join the battle.
Qin Ziyu looked at the changes in the battle situation indifferently, and suddenly looked back in the direction of Heilin Town.
"Warbler!"
Under the cold call, a black figure appeared behind Qin Ziyu, it was the strange-faced man who had been with him before.
"Master, please command!" the voice was hoarse and ugly, like a demon.
Qin Ziyu said a few words in his ear, and the strange-faced man who was called a warbler nodded, and disappeared in place in an instant after receiving the order.
In the following moment, several Daochen-level auras suddenly appeared in front of the southeast entrance, and the group of spotted insect beasts in the impact was suddenly chaotic.
......
In the dark woods, the crying of babies that had lasted for a long time finally stopped.
"Looks like I guessed right!" Demon Nine grinned, looking very excited.
But this sentence made Qiao Ximing, who couldn't move, burst into a bruise, and he just wanted to rush forward and fight with Demon Jiu to take the swaddling clothes back.
Seeing Qiao Ximing's angry look, Demon Jiu smiled: "Why do you have this expression, you must know that I have paid a drop of essence blood to ...... Okay, now you can see that my guess is indeed correct, right? If you want your sister to wake up, you have to get the characteristics of the Eight Clans. Now with this drop of essence blood I gave her, your sister has five characteristics, and she is only three away from being perfect, and you still don't thank me?"
Qiao Ximing gasped twice, trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
The moment he saw the drop of demon Jiu's blood dripping out, Qiao Ximing was shocked, even he might not be able to bear the terrifying energy in it, but it was so simply dripped on Xiao Qian's head by Demon Jiu, and after it was over, he said that all this was just a guess, how could this not make him angry.
This guy just treats them all as playthings!
But judging from the facts in front of him, Demon Jiu's guess was indeed correct, there was still no breath of life in the swaddling clothes, but the baby cry that appeared out of thin air Qiao Ximing listened carefully, and it was the same as the cry he heard seven years ago!
"Why are you helping me?"
Demon Jiu's expression was stunned, and then he burst into laughter, as if Qiao Ximing had told an unusually funny joke.
"Help? hahaha...... You're mistaken, I never wanted to help you. You are a human being, I am a brute, and human beings are not at odds with each other, this is your own human concept, how can I help you?"
The laughter gradually calmed down, and the black and white eyes stared at Qiao Ximing with inexplicable interest.
"You have to remember that I only do these things because I want to do them. I'm full of interest, both for you and for your sister...... So I'm going to make you grow up and eventually become my research material, you know?"
Study...... Materials?
Qiao Ximing was silent for a long time, and then said, "What about the characteristics of the Nian clan, why don't you help me get it together, so that the perfect body can appear faster, isn't this what you think?"
Demon Jiu raised his eyebrows, and his strange smile remained the same: "You want Dieyu to help you, right? Hehe, what a greedy little guy! However, first of all, it's already good if I let it not kill its Niantong Demon, and if I want it to help you, I'm not so strong...... Second, even if it is willing to help, in my reasoning, it will not be able to help your sister make up for the characteristics of the Nian clan. ”
Qiao Ximing frowned: "Why?"
The wound on his finger had healed and was gone, Demon Jiu looked at the swaddling clothes in his arms, but he was a little impatient, and with a flick of his fingers, he lifted Qiao Ximing's restraints and reached out to hand the swaddling clothes over.
"The characteristics of each race are different, the characteristics of the demon race are demonic nature, which is reflected in fusion and recombination, which can naturally be absorbed in my essence and blood; the characteristics of the Yi race lie in the influence of spiritual power, although the breath on the body of this snow yin body is weak, but it can also be absorbed by the perfect body as one of the characteristics after a long time; the characteristics of the dead clan lie in the disappearance of the breath of life, and now your sister's state of suspended animation has been met; the characteristics of the spirit race are in the ...... of dead things."
The white fingers brushed aside the swaddling clothes and pinched the small white disc on his chest, which made Qiao Ximing's eyes stagnate, and he didn't notice that the tone of Demon Jiu's speech gradually slowed down.
"This spiritual object, which should have been a very powerful instrument before, has now turned into a necklace precisely because of its ...... By the way, it's already your sister's spirit!"
Qiao Ximing's eyes changed: "What do you mean?"
But Demon Jiu didn't pay any attention to Qiao Ximing's nervousness, and his expression was extremely excited, as if he had discovered something.
"This spirit creature has long met the conditions for a creature to turn into a spirit race, but now there is still no sign of it, because its firstborn spirit has been devoured by your sister and replaced it in the necklace, not only absorbing the characteristics of the spirit race, but also satisfying the characteristics of the parasitic race!
This is said without a beginning and an end, and Qiao Ximing still doesn't understand the existence of the host clan, so he can only think about it and hurriedly ask: "You mean, my sister's ...... Soul, in the necklace?"
The word "soul?" made Demon Jiu stunned, and then nodded: "You're not wrong when you say that." Moreover, if you continue to deduce this, if you want your sister to wake up, you may not need to get all the eight characteristics together, just make up for the Nian clan, and your sister will be able to recover!"
"Really, how do you make up for the characteristics of the Nian clan?"
Under Qiao Ximing's anxious inquiry, Demon Jiu's eyes suddenly moved away from the swaddling clothes, and glanced in the northwest and southeast directions respectively.
"Is it finally here? It's slow...... Butterfly rain!"
Dieyu, who had been silent for a long time, immediately floated forward when he heard this: "Master?"
Demon Jiu smiled evilly: "There are guests in your house, let all the little ones in your clan go and entertain them, lest they come and arrest you." ”
"Yes, master!" As soon as Butterfly Rain's words fell, a pink light suddenly burst out in his eyes, his lips opened, and a low-frequency insect chirp instantly spread out in the direction of the two entrances.
At this time, Demon Jiu turned his head to look at Qiao Ximing, and instead of answering the previous question, he showed an expression of memory.
"Little one, what were you doing before the butterfly rain hatched?"
