Mountains.

The edge of a dense jungle.

The void flickered.

Wu Xiaode appeared from mid-air and landed in the wild grass on the hillside.

Bang Zi Zi

The spatial teleporter in his hand burst into flames and emitted black smoke.

Wu Xiaode took the space teleporter off his hand, threw it on the ground, thought about it, dug a pit again, and buried it.

Quiet all around.

But Wu Xiaode was a little inexplicably nervous in his heart.

Yes.

Since building the Wall of Sighs and awakening the skills of the Dead Realm, he has become sensitive to danger and death.

"Fog."

He whispered.

A faint mist came out of his surroundings and permeated the surroundings.

The wind blows.

Whew-

All the fog disappeared in the dense forest with Wu Xiaode, and there was no trace of it again.

I don't know why.

He felt his muscles tense all over.

An unknown danger hovered around the right and left, but could not be seen.

What exactly?

Wu Xiaode pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then walked in one direction.

The mist swirled around him, keeping him invisible at all times.

He parted the grass and walked along the trail, eventually stopping at a high hill.

From here, you can see that on both sides of the mountain path ahead, there are pine trees standing upright.

"The welcoming tree...... It seems to be this way. ”

Wu Xiaode continued to walk seven or eight miles, and saw the small village at the foot of the mountain.

That's right.

According to the information given by the regiment leader, this is the gathering point of the human race.

Strangely, the whole village was empty, there was not a single person in sight, and there was no movement.

Wu Xiaode sighed for a few breaths, and it was not easy to enter the village for a while.

Why don't you wait here?

The mountain wind blew, and a sporadic sound of talking came from afar.

Hey?

Why are all the people on the other side of the col?

Wu Xiaode turned around and walked along a mountain road towards the depths of the dense forest.

About five or six minutes later.

The front suddenly opened up, and a large crater with a diameter of about ten meters appeared.

Human corpses littered the pit.

On the mound next to the pit, there stood a row of monsters.

Two human men knelt in front of them, flattering smiles on their faces.

The monster at the head resembled a humanoid, with a pair of bright red horns emerging from its head, and a mottled black-gray full-body carapace covered with sharp short spines.

It stretched out its long, pincer-like arms, gently touched the heads of the two human men, and spoke:

"Thanks to your leadership this time, we were able to discover this hidden human settlement and kill everyone here."

The two human men knelt on the ground and hurriedly said:

"My lord, this is what we should do."

"Yes, we are hell-bent on transforming into your servants, please give us this opportunity."

"With your help, we have killed about seven hundred humans, and this is enough to turn you into my slaves. ”

Both of them had a smile on their faces.

The horned carapace monster paused for a moment, and then said, "However, have you ever thought about one thing? ”

"Please make it clear."

"I will turn you into servants, but I don't really look down on you at all, because you have betrayed your own people—can't you see that?" The horned carapace asked in a disdainful tone.

The two men looked at each other awkwardly, and quickly adjusted.

"My lord, we have no way back, we will always follow you and fight for you." A man said.

"Yes, we're willing to do anything for you!" Another man said.

When the monster heard this, it shook its head with a smile and said, "Human...... It's a ridiculous race, I'll let you be one of my dogs, so at least your lives will be saved. ”

It stepped forward and placed its sharp pincer arms on the shoulders of the two men, emitting bursts of light.

"Thank you, sir!"

The two men said ecstatically.

Wu Xiaode didn't look at it when he saw this.

After all, there is such a thing as leading the way for the enemy in all eras.

There's no need to stay here.

The village is no longer safe.

The best strategy now is to hurry to find a safe place and wait to meet the regimental commander.

Then, you have to rely on the strength of the team to fight and try to get through this difficulty.

There's a lot going on after I go back.

For example, go to see if Sister Lan has woken up, for example, to see the film company that His Majesty has established for herself, for example, to go back to the martial arts hall to see how Lao Qian is doing this time.

Wu Xiaode stepped back step by step, preparing to leave here.

Last minute.

He glanced into the grave, took a few quick steps, and turned to walk out of the woods.

After all, it's all monsters.

It wouldn't be good if the regimental commander came over and alarmed the monsters.

In case the monster calls for help—

Then it becomes a head-on confrontation.

It's going to die.

Wu Xiaode's steps became faster and faster, and he gradually breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

The world is miserable.

There is no such thing in our world.

Even if it is a bone dragon, it is regarded as a science fiction movie, and people watch the live broadcast, happily liking and rewarding one by one.

Because—

Everyone found that nothing had changed.

The world hasn't changed.

There is no calamity.

There were no mass deaths.

Life is stable.

Sometimes people are actually very low-demanding.

They just have to-

Alive.

For some reason, Wu Xiaode's mind flashed back to the scene in the corpse pit just now.

A girl with tears on her face.

A man with a face full of despair and pain.

Children with dazed expressions.

Mother holding baby.

All dead.

They just lay there quietly.

Because of the two leading parties.

Sand...... Sand......

Sand.

The pace slowed down and eventually stopped.

Come to think of it.

Isn't the mother holding the baby the woman in the video shown by the head of the regiment?

The regiment commander said that there was a human gathering place in the mountains.

She played a video on her mobile phone, and the video showed this woman, holding a baby in her arms, smiling at the screen:

"Your team is coming, and of course you are welcome to come at any time."

Be a guest......

Her wrist was wrapped around the long tendon of the monster that looked like a rope.

She wants to give it to the martial artist of the S-class club, hoping that the martial artist can defeat more monsters for the sake of the village.

But she died.

Wu Xiaode let out a long sigh and chanted softly:

"The mud and bones under the spring are boneless,

I'm full of snow in the world. ”

He raised his head and closed his eyes, as if there were literally countless snowflakes falling in the sky, mourning with him for the many innocent people.

He lowered his head again, as if thoughtful.

However, his hands on the hilt of the long knife trembled, and he couldn't control it at all, so he could only clench the hilt with more force, and only then could he barely control his impulse.

Impulse......

He sighed again.

- If you can't do the first trick, why do you need to read this poem?

I thought that if I read this poem, it would mean that I had completed the mourning and could leave safely.

Who knows no.

The recitation of this poem is like a match being struck in a dark powder magazine.

Something seemed to be ignited in my heart.

Yes......

Something is burning in my heart.

This kind of burning makes the blood boil all over the body, makes the soul tormented, and makes people unable to suppress that desire.

- Must go and do that.

At this moment, nothing else matters.

Only that thing.

Only to kill those two men, to witness their despair, to watch them weep bitterly, to lay their heads on the pit of the dead, to comfort all the innocent who died—

Everything is in vain.

Only this thing.

This is the only thing that needs to be done immediately!!

Wu Xiaode suddenly turned around and walked back step by step.

Bursts of silent demonic mist emanated from him, like an abyss and a sea.

The demonic mist flew silently through the corpse pit and landed behind the monsters, right in front of the two humans.

The two human men kneeling on the ground gradually began to change their form.

However, the fog gathered together, turning into a whole curtain of fog behind the monsters, constantly manifesting the ever-changing villagers.

These people who were originally lying in the corpse pit turned their heads in unison and smiled at the two traitors.

Both men got goosebumps all over their bodies, and shouted at the same time:

"My lord! Look, adults! ”

The monster suddenly looked back.

However, the wall of fog only lasted for a moment, and when they spoke, all the fog disappeared into the void.

Nothing.

"What are you letting me see?" The monster asked.

The two men were stunned.

Did you just look dazzled?

That's not right,

They looked at each other.

How is it possible for us to see dazzles at the same time?

At this time, Wu Xiaode had already walked back step by step and stood on the edge of the corpse pit again.

Countless mists of silence spread out from him, turning into invisible, and began to envelop everything around him beyond the enemy's notice.

"You two don't make a fuss!"

The horned carapace monster said with some annoyance: "Remember, you are about to evolve, and when the time comes, you will lose your human senses and become a higher existence like me, take out some courage, understand?" ”

When it spoke, Wu Xiaode's body shook up, crossed the corpse pit, and landed beside it silently.

The razor-sharp Dream Blower was drawn.

Wu Xiaode stood in the endless silent demonic mist, lowered his head, clenched his long knife, and began to gather momentum.

Gather momentum!

This skill is very clumsy, it must be within three meters of the enemy, and it takes ten seconds to wait, so it is generally not learned at all.

But at the moment that it is in the hands of Wu Xiaode, it is different.

The monster still rested its hands on the chests of the two human men, unleashing a spell that transformed them into their own kind.

The other monsters stood aside.

From beginning to end, they didn't notice that Wu Xiaode was standing aside, standing in the demonic mist.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

……

Ten seconds.

Momentum.

Wu Xiaode raised his head expressionlessly, held his breath, and swept his eyes over the monsters.

Between the lightning and flint -

The dream blowing knife was shocked.

Countless golden threads burst out from the blade, scattering like a hurricane, slashing at all the monsters around them in a tyrannical and frantic manner.
