Chapter 66: Death's Favor!
…… Death.
The cold sweat on Wu Xiaode's back was about to break out.
The Book of the Dead is its own awakened ability, from the realm of death, and is quite mysterious.
It senses that there is almost no problem.
So—
"Do I have a chance to finish this guy?" Wu Xiaode asked silently.
Two lines of blood-colored characters suddenly appeared on the Book of the Dead:
"The other party is the Grim Reaper!"
"There's no chance you can beat it!"
Yes.
Good.
It seems that there is no chance.
Wu Xiaode's eyes moved away from the upside-down monster, pulled Xiao Baihong, jumped down from the tree, and said to everyone:
"There are traces of military activity here, are we going to join them?"
- The regiment commander has long prepared the identity of the "engineering corps", presumably interested in it.
The nuclear bomb is coming.
It's time to get out of here!
Wu Xiaode directly ignored the Grim Reaper hanging upside down on the opposite tree, and began to concentrate on his own affairs.
Opposite side.
The Grim Reaper is aware of the situation.
It stretched out several long whiskers and coiled silently under the tree.
The tendrils are black throughout, with one section of bone and some of flesh, with scythe-sharp barbs at the ends.
The crowd was unaware.
The regimental commander said: "It is the best thing to find the big army, because we also have to explore why this world keeps digging into the ground." ”
Everyone looked at the engineering uniforms on their bodies and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
- The regimental commander had planned this for a long time, so everyone gained the identity of "Engineer Corps, Exploration Squad".
The tentacles fell to the ground and slowly stretched out towards the crowd.
No way.
Can't run away.
Didn't you say that if you can't see it, you'll be fine?
Why did it still come?
Is it temptation?
Wu Xiaode's heart flashed, but his face was extremely calm, and he said: "I guess there must be some marching roads here, let's go!" ”
"Good!" The head of the regiment nodded.
As soon as the two finished speaking, the team had not yet moved, but Wu Xiaode saw those meat whiskers suddenly speed up.
They're about to climb up to everyone!
- This Grim Reaper is listening to us.
It doesn't want to let us go.
What to do?
If it could have done it directly, it would have killed us directly, but it didn't, which proves that it has other ways to put us in a situation of death.
Wait a minute.
Did all those reincarnated soldiers and undead die because of this?
Death......
Sow death and get souls?
Between the lightning and flint, Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered something.
He laughed, shook his head, and said:
"The multi-eyed demon lizard we killed just now, as well as the demon insect disguised as a boulder, probably killed a lot of soldiers."
"It has to be." The head of the regiment answered.
"If only these monsters are left in the world in the future, will we be able to eat their flesh and blood? Like ancient hunting? Wu Xiaode asked.
The regimental commander looked at him and did not answer.
Xiao Baihong said: "No, eating their flesh will make you mentally crazy, your body will be alienated, and you will become a monster." ”
"If only there was a way to eat them, maybe humans could eat all these monsters." Wu Xiaode sighed.
"Can you think of something else, don't keep thinking about it." Xiao Baihong said.
Everyone chatted easily.
On the tree, the upside-down Grim Reaper moved.
It stretched out seven or eight black claws, climbed down from the tree step by step, and walked in front of everyone.
Wu Xiaode was indifferent.
However, a translucent light suddenly rose from the head of the regiment, enveloping the entire team and rising into the sky.
The big mouth on Death's face was grinning, and the flesh was slowly rolling back—
It seemed to dislike the glow.
"Do you want to take some monster flesh and take it back to study?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Ah, what the hell is this......" the gunman muttered.
"Forget it, those two monsters have been dead for a while, and their flesh and blood are not active enough and have no value." The head of the regiment said.
"Well, that's a pity, you can't eat it, and it's useless to use it." Wu Xiaode said.
Eat.
The Grim Reaper hesitated, slowly walked past Wu Xiaode, and walked towards the path where everyone had come.
Looking at its appearance, it seems to be very interested in the two monsters that have just died.
The Book of the Dead then opened, revealing lines of small ice crystal print:
"Well done."
"This 'god' is in a state of some kind of confusion."
"Your conversation has succeeded in diverting its attention from the monster's soul."
- If it is a god, why is it that even the sanity is confused?
Wu Xiaode wondered in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest on his face, but said with a smile: "Since there is no value, then let's move on, maybe we can find the army." ”
"I feel like they're nearby, let's go." The head of the regiment also said.
Everyone responded.
By this time, the Grim Reaper had staggered past the entire group and walked in the direction of the mountain stream.
Wu Xiaode stood at the front of the team, his expression unchanged, but his heart was almost excited.
"Let's go!"
He shouted, and was about to run forward.
Hayabusa suddenly said, "Since these guns are all left here, the army may have lost a large number of men." ”
Death paused suddenly.
It looked back at the falcon, and all the flesh on its body was covered with a deafening wail from the hanging souls in unison.
No one could hear it.
But Wu Xiaode heard it.
He had just taken a few steps when his feet were on the ground, his muscles tensed for a moment, and he immediately kicked on the ground and continued to walk.
Can't hesitate!
Any reaction at this time will let the Grim Reaper know that he can see it.
I can only keep running!
Wu Xiaode pretended not to know anything, took the lead, and ran forward.
The next moment.
Ahead.
An extremely long, soul-filled tendrel stretched out from behind his back, circled in front of everyone, whistling and turning, passing past Wu Xiaode like lightning.
What?
Happen...... What's up?
The whisker slashed at the falcon's body, and it quickly retracted.
The Grim Reaper stepped forward again, heading towards the mountain stream.
- What was it doing?
Wu Xiaode was puzzled, but it was difficult to turn back.
It wasn't until he had crossed a hill that he turned back and said:
"Commander, I'm going to speed up, and the next few of you will follow!"
"Okay, you just have to speed up." The head of the regiment answered.
Wu Xiaode's gaze slid over Falcons' body.
I saw a hole in his chest, and blood was flowing outward.
— but no one saw it.
Hayabusa himself doesn't seem to know.
So is this an illusion?
Wu Xiaode was puzzled, but he didn't have time to think about it.
It's been delayed for seven or eight minutes.
In just over twenty minutes, the nuclear bomb is coming!
He was anxious.
Suddenly, the head of the regiment flashed, and he fell in a position on a par with Wu Xiaode.
The two walked side by side.
"Did you sense something just now?" She asked in a whisper.
Wu Xiaode opened his mouth to speak-
A line of small ice crystal letters suddenly appeared on the Book of the Dead:
"If one of you has fallen into the favor of death, your words will be heard by the Grim Reaper until he dies."
The words in Wu Xiaode's mouth suddenly changed: "No, I just think that we must find the big army quickly, so that we will be more secure." ”
Beyond the mountains and forests ahead, a road suddenly appeared.
There was a troop truck on the side of the road.
The regimental commander said: "Gunner." ”
"Understood!"
The gunman answered and jumped into the truck first.
Soon.
With the roar of engines, trucks painted with dark green field paint set off.
The truck drove all the way down to the main road.
"It doesn't feel right......"
The head of the regiment said softly.
"I feel the same way." Hayabusa said from the side.
Wu Xiaode didn't speak.
He saw blood spilling from the falcon's chest.
Sometimes, the blood would stop flowing, but a black mark immediately flashed on the Hayabusa's chest.
Then the wound immediately cracked.
The blood continued to flow out.
- But no one else saw it.
"Who else?" The head of the regiment asked.
"Me." Xiao Baihong said solemnly.
The head of the regiment said: "It seems that our strength is biased towards the spiritual aspect, so we have a hunch, but generally speaking, some hunches only happen to a very small number of people-"
She didn't go on.
But everyone understood what she meant.
This time, all three spiritually inclined professionals had a bad premonition.
This in itself is a problematic thing.
The head of the regiment thought for a while, took out a blank yellow talisman, and used a cinnabar pen to draw dragons and snakes on it, and quickly drew runes.
She held the rune in both hands and said softly:
"Nine Heavens God bless, Heavenly Official!"
The talisman remained motionless.
The head of the regiment waited for a few breaths, with a strange look on his face, opened his hands, and looked towards the talisman.
I saw that the runes on the talisman kept flowing like blood, falling low to the ground, and letting out a miserable cry.
Everyone was silent.
Although Wu Xiaode couldn't understand what was happening, he saw that the faces of the other team members had changed.
The eagle has even begun to turn pale.
The head of the regiment put away the talisman and shouted: "Evil things are in charge, heaven and earth are dead, and this place is almost completely finished - speed up!" We're going to get out of here now! ”
"Commander, someone is here!" Xiao Baihong shouted.
Everyone looked up the mountain road together.
At the end of the rugged mountain road, there was the roar of cars.
Two military trucks are rushing towards them.
