Chapter 213: Beast Tide!
"Investigate, investigate what?" Chu Ming looked at the burly man suspiciously. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Cause of death!" The burly man's expression turned cold, he took a sip and said in a deep voice, "The cause of my brother's death." ”
"The younger brother of the senior also escorted the convoy of the Shen family's young lady?" Chu Ming couldn't help but think of the old man in the Martial Palace.
This is the third time the convoy has set off this month, the first two times I don't know why I suddenly returned halfway, and there were heavy losses, and the younger brother of the burly man participated in one of them, but something happened on the way and fell.
"Well, if my estimate is correct, he should have participated in the first escort, and at that time he also told me that it was a fat errand, and asked me if I wanted to be together, I happened to have something else that I couldn't get away with, and I didn't expect ......" Speaking of this, the burly man sighed and drank the wine in the bowl. Rubbing the corners of his eyes, he continued.
"Although my younger brother has not reached the realm of heaven and earth, he is also the peak cultivation of the realm of heaven and earth, and his combat power is not bad, far beyond ordinary martial artists, of course he can't be compared with you, you are the most demonic genius I have ever seen, there is no one. ”
The senior laughed, but I don't know what happened later. Chu Ming didn't pay much attention to the other party's praise, how big the world is, how many geniuses there are, not to mention demons, even the so-called monsters in people's mouths are immeasurable.
"Later?" the burly man glanced back and forth, and said, "Look at the current convoy, two Heaven and Earth Realm cultivators, plus you have three Heaven and Earth Realm combat power; half a hundred Heaven and Earth Realm martial artists, in terms of scale, is already not small, but compared with the first time, it is too far away." ”
"My younger brother told me that there were nearly 100 guards he recruited that time, with a total number of more than 150 people, although the cross-domain path was full of dangers, but it would not be a problem with this scale, among them there were two early Heaven and Earth Realm martial artists, and the Shen family had another Heaven and Earth Realm mid-stage powerhouse at that time. There are a total of four Heaven and Earth Realm martial artists in charge!"
"Such a team can even attack a seven-rank sect that is not weak, but the entire convoy is still suffering heavy casualties halfway, and more than half of it has fallen!"
"I originally even suspected that this mission was a trap, but then I found out that a mid-heaven and earth realm powerhouse of the Shen family had actually fallen, and more than half of the guards were killed or wounded, so I realized that this matter was not so simple. ”
At first, Chu Ming also felt strange, it stands to reason that with such a generous remuneration, there must be many martial artists, but now the number of people in the entire team is only more than fifty people, not counting the Shen family guards. Although this number is a lot, it is insignificant compared to the entire Xuantian City.
It seems that everyone else is afraid, think about it, it's not normal to send the same task three times in a row, not to mention that even the powerhouses of the Heaven and Earth Realm have fallen, who would dare to take it?
"People can't be resurrected after death, so please mourn your predecessors. Chu Ming still had a good impression of the burly man, and said comfortingly at this time.
"What kind of mourning is not mourning, the warrior and the sky take their lives; the fall is normal; I am not a pedantic person; my brother can die, but he can't die in vain!"
The burly man gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, because the force was too strong, and the joints turned white.
The heart of the Heaven and Earth Realm level is naturally far beyond ordinary people, and in the next second, the burly man returned to normal, took a sip of wine, and smiled at Chu Ming.
"Don't call yourself old-timers, your strength may be stronger than me, I'm embarrassed to call it like this. If you don't dislike it, just call me Brother Lei. ”
There are no dead rules in the martial arts world, strength is respected, the strongest is the senior, Chu Ming used to call the other party like this because he had a good impression of the other party, out of respect; and the other party's age and cultivation were placed there, Chu Ming didn't know the other party's name, and it was the most appropriate to call the senior.
At this time, since the other party spoke, Chu Ming naturally would not object, but the other party's age is not much older than Chu Ming, maybe he is a late-born junior in front of Chu Zhongtian, because he has stepped into the realm of heaven and earth, his lifespan has increased significantly, and the degree of aging will also slow down, although the burly man looks only in his forties, he may really be more than sixty years old.
It's still a bit awkward to ask Chu Ming to call the other party brother.
"That's fine, I'll call you Uncle Lei the same way I call Uncle Shen. ”
The burly man seemed to know what Chu Ming was thinking, but he didn't care, he laughed, lowered his voice, and reminded. "This road will definitely not be peaceful, you will be clever when the time comes, if there is any danger, you will find a chance to run, anyway, along the way, I think you will harvest no less wealth, there is no need to put your life on the line for the reward that you have not received. ”
"Rest assured. I've got my own measure. ”
Chu Ming is not a pedantic and rigid person, if he can help in an accident, he will naturally not stand idly, but when the danger exceeds his ability, Chu Ming will not choose to fight to the death.
This is the case between martial artists, not to mention that Chu Ming and the other party have no friendship in the first place, and the other party also deliberately concealed the truth, and did not explain all the accidents that might happen on the road, otherwise, judging from the extent that the powerhouses of the Heaven and Earth Realm have fallen by three, it is impossible for the Martial Palace to divide the difficulty level of this task at average.
Thinking of this, Chu Ming was puzzled again. What secrets are hidden in the convoy, so much so that the other party even has to hide it from the Martial Palace.
Chu Ming turned sideways and turned his gaze to the carriage in the middle, where sat the eldest lady of the Shen family, who had never shown up, not to mention breathing along the way, and never even saw the other party come out when he was sleeping and eating.
It seems that this Miss Shen is the answer to all mysteries.
"I'm in trouble!" While Chu Ming was pondering, the burly man shouted in a low voice, and the voice reached everyone's ears with the blessing of Zhenyuan.
"All ready, there is a beast tide approaching!"
"Beast tide?!" Hearing this word, Chu Ming was also a little surprised, and hurriedly stood up and looked at the burly man's line of sight.
At this time, it was only three o'clock, and it was not too late, but the sky in the distance was all dyed, and the billowing gray air continued to rise into the air, like dark clouds.
Demonic!
It was the demonic aura emitted by countless demon beasts gathered together! At this time, it was sweeping overwhelmed, and the terrifying momentum made even Chu Ming secretly frightened.
Both sides were moving at high speed, and in the blink of an eye for dozens of times, they were already in sight.
All the monsters that come into your eyes are all over the sky. At the front were hundreds of fourth-level demon beasts, followed by countless second- and third-level demon beasts, almost ten thousand, and the black pressure was everywhere.
The terrifying demonic aura gathered together to produce an astonishing coercion, the strong visual impact made many of the convoy guards tremble and tremble, and even the unicorn pulling the cart showed a trace of fear in their eyes.
At this time, there was a relieved expression on Uncle Shen's face, as if what he had been worried about was finally the inexplicable relief when it happened? Could it be that what Uncle Shen had been worried about was the beast tide? He had long known that the beast tide would attack the convoy?
Uncle Shen did not give an explanation, and ordered the convoy to stop, and everyone stepped forward to form a human wall to protect the carriage.
There are many flying monsters in the beast tide, such as flamingos, carrion vultures, and bloodthirsty bats...... At the same time, there were many fourth-level demon beasts, forming a huge group of beasts, swooping in.
The long knife appeared in his hand, and Uncle Shen took the lead, slashing at the most dense direction of the demon beasts in the air, and the cyan dragon that was dozens of feet long roared, and rushed into the herd of beasts, raging and tearing.
The green dragon passed, and the demon beasts were all eaten.
The next moment!
Whether it was a third-level flying demon beast or a fourth-level demon beast, they all fell from the sky, as if it was a black and oppressive rainstorm.
"Slash the world!"
The burly man did not dare to lag behind, a little under his feet, his body rushed towards the beasts, holding the axe in both hands, and with the inertia of speed, he slashed out.
A huge axe, up to a hundred zhang long, all the demon beasts that exceeded the height of the axe shadow were all cut into two sections, and those lower than the axe shadow could not escape their fate, and the breath of the forced person was crushed into blood foam!
Like a remnant cloud, the beast tide cleared out a large area.
In terms of effect, it is even higher than Uncle Shen, after all, this kind of group battle, a range of strikes, is more suitable for a burly man's way of opening and closing.
"Cut! Brutes are brutes, and no matter how much they come, they are waste!"
With a mouthful of spit disdainfully, the burly man put the giant axe on his shoulder, turned to look at Chu Ming, as if to say, "It's time for you to show your face." ”
Chu Ming smiled bitterly and shook his head, a good defense battle actually turned into an enemy killing competition, but there was no dissatisfaction.
The principle of respect for the strong is everywhere, when the gap between one person and another person is too big, they may have a good relationship, but there will definitely be a subtle relationship between the top and bottom, for a person with very low strength, you will be a good friend with him on an equal footing?
It's obviously unrealistic, even if you don't mind, the other party will definitely not dare to act so recklessly, after all, the gap is the gap.
And now the burly man treats Chu Ming like this, precisely because he treats Chu Ming as a person of the same level. And there is a faint implication of competition, whether he admits it or not, the burly man even has an idea that he can't compare to Chu Ming in his heart.
After all, at that time, Chu Ming solved the two leaders of Ghost Sorrow with three strokes and two divisions, and he was obviously a lot slower, and finally with the help of Uncle Shen, he solved the three leaders of Ghost Sorrow with one axe.
Although Chu Ming didn't think so much, he still didn't mind showing his strength a little; this time the journey was destined to be uneventful; it was still necessary to deter others.
The beast tide covers a wide area, so although the burly man opened a gap just now, but immediately the demon beasts on both sides moved closer to the middle, and the demon beasts behind made up for it, and soon resumed the formation again, which was extremely strict;
Chu Ming's body turned, came to the front of everyone, and took out a spear from the storage spirit pendant, this is the second leader who was worried about the ghost before, although it is not a spiritual weapon, but it is also the top among mortal iron.
At that time, I took it away with my hand, and at this time, it was most appropriate to take out a gun instead of a sword!
