Chapter 384: Dead Body
Where is that place?" asked Mu Xuanyi's figure as he walked through the wilderness, moving forward.
"The information only indicates a general location, but there is no specific location, and we need to find it ourselves. Xiao Lin said softly, this is the difficult part of the task, they did not grasp the specific location of the opponent's stronghold, and it is very likely that it will take a long time to lock the specific direction.
"It should still be found. Sukh whispered, rushing to the front, his gaze constantly sweeping around, sensing the wind and grass nearby.
"Where did the bloody breath come from?" Mu Xuanyi suddenly sniffed and said in surprise.
"Why didn't I smell anything?" Xiao Lin was stunned for a moment, wondering in his heart that the ability of the change system is really characteristic, even this nose is like a beast, there is obviously no smell in the air, Mu Xuanyi can actually smell that faint smell of blood?
"Which direction?" asked Suhe immediately, at this time, he could not let go of any trace of information, and he needed to take a look at it anyway.
"There. Mu Xuanyi pointed to the left front, "The bloody qi is mainly coming from that direction." ”
"Let's go over and see. Su He said, "Qin Ke remembers the spirit probe. ”
"Yes. Qin Ke nodded, forming a seal knot on his chest, and a spiritual fluctuation that was imperceptible to the naked eye spread towards the surroundings, and a huge spiritual enchantment enveloped them, carefully probing the movements around them.
"Lead the way. Su He looked at Mu Xuanyi and said, pointed to the distance, and asked him to lead the way, after all, except for this kid, no one else could smell the almost non-existent bloody gas.
Mu Xuanyi immediately walked to the front of the team and began to lead everyone in the direction of the spread of the bloody qi.
After a while, the bloody aura in the air suddenly became thicker, even if it wasn't for the kind of person with a sensitive nose change ability, Xiao Lin and the others could smell this pungent smell.
"I get to this weird place every time. Mu Xuan muttered quietly, before they were still moving on the empty wilderness, and their sight around them was relatively clear, but following the bloody qi all the way, they unconsciously broke into a dimly lit forest.
"I'm really fed up with this kind of place. Xiao Lin muttered in a low voice, he finally got rid of three months of life in the dense forest, but now he came to a strange forest, which was about to drive him crazy.
"It's going to be your norm in the future. Suhe said casually, "Whether you are in the wasteland or in the mountains and forests, and occasionally you have to climb the towering snow-capped mountains, you can get used to it early, and you won't be able to stand it later." ”
"Isn't there a mission in the town?" Xiao Lin said with a roll of his eyes.
"You may have some misunderstanding about the field service?" Su He said with a smile, "It's all said to be a field mission, of course, you have to leave the town and go into the mountains and forests." ”
"Okay. Xiao Lin said helplessly, he didn't know what to say, he could only blame himself for his bad luck, he didn't let him stay in a good dormitory, and he had to be assigned by his superiors to perform some field tasks, and he was very tired.
"What's that?" Mu Xuanyi suddenly exclaimed, attracting everyone's attention.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Lin raised his head and asked, and then he saw the scene not far ahead at first glance, the pupils in his eyes shrank suddenly, and his voice trembled a little and said, "This is?"
"Looks like something terrible has happened. Suhe said with a serious face, slowly walking forward.
Not far from Xiao Lin and them, there was a dry tree, its long and thick branches spreading around, and on those black and oppressive branches hung a dead corpse with a hideous face.
Some of the corpses looked to have been dead for a long time, and the whole body had completely dried up, and some had even begun to decompose, and there was a foul smell coming from it.
Some of the corpses looked as if they had just died, and there was even dull blood dripping from the wound and falling to the ground, the bloody smell that Mu Xuanyi smelled before must have come from these corpses.
"What's going on here?" Xiao Lin muttered quietly.
"There are no strong energy fluctuations around me. Qin Ke said softly, "It's possible that I didn't perceive it, but it's more likely that there is no one around at the moment." ”
"Be careful. Sukh reminded him aloud, and he walked silently forward, carefully taking every step, and this place gave him a strange feeling, as if there was a danger lurking in the shadows, and it could erupt at any moment.
Su He is just alone, so he doesn't have to be so restrained, after all, the artist is bold, and he may not care if he cuts the tree with a sword, but now that there are five people with Xiao Lin behind him, he has to be careful, in case he touches the prohibition laid by others, the matter will be a big deal.
"Why do I feel like those people are moving?" Mu Xuan muttered quietly.
"Don't talk nonsense. Xiao Lin said angrily, this can't be nonsense, Ji Xuan'er, who was already pale, hid behind Linglong with a trembling body at this time, and didn't even dare to show her head.
"It looks like a bizarre ritual. Sukh whispered, stopping not far in front of the tree, crouching down to carefully examine the movement around him, and did not approach easily.
"Look around for any traces of rituals. Su He said, reminding Xiao Lin and the others to pay attention to the movements around them.
"We don't really care about it here. Mu Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with our mission. ”
"That's right. "But maybe there is a connection, so it's better to get to know it, and if nothing ends up happening, we'll make plans." ”
"Won't this delay our combat opportunity?" Mu Xuan asked puzzled, he felt that he couldn't let this sudden encounter disrupt his previous deployment, what if it was a trap set by the other party.
"I can understand your concerns. Su He smiled, his expression was very relaxed, not as nervous as Xiao Lin and the others, "We are only traveling today to explore the other party's stronghold."
location, try a search mission, not a sortie mission, you don't have to be so nervous, take it easy to better complete the task. ”
"It's hard to relax in this environment. Xiao Lin said helplessly, his eyes swept around quickly, and his breathing method worked quickly, sensing the movements around him.
"There's a little bit of something here. Linglong's voice suddenly sounded in the distance, motioning for everyone to come over.
"What's wrong?" Su He rushed to Linglong's side as soon as possible, looked down carefully, and saw a rune that had been used on the ground, and he muttered softly, "It's indeed a mysterious ritual, but I don't know what the other party's purpose is." ”
"Snort".
At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the large dry tree in the distance, and the corpses hanging upside down on the branches began to tremble slightly, and there were strange red lights flashing on their bodies.
"I said I saw them move a little bit before. Mu Xuanyi said in a low voice, "Look at it, it's really moving this time." ”
"Hurry back!" Suhe snorted.
Xiao Lin and the others reacted quickly, quickly swept into the distance, and soon opened a short distance, watching the movement here from a distance.
Su He stood still and did not move, his eyes watched the changes in the big tree without blinking, he would not leave easily until Xiao Lin and the others were safe.
"A formation has appeared on the ground!" Qin Ke said in shock.
Around the pitch-black tree, red light suddenly lit up one after another, and a scarlet formation appeared at the feet of everyone, even if Xiao Lin and the others had withdrawn from a short distance, they were still shrouded in the formation.
"Don't stop, leave the area of the formation!" shouted Suhe, his own body flickering, not daring to stay in this strange formation for a long time.
Xiao Lin and the others didn't dare to slack off, and immediately flashed their bodies and swept towards the area outside the formation, the speed was urged to the extreme, and the formation under their feet also changed drastically, and the red light of the Dao Dao was like a sharp claw sticking out of the ground, wrapping towards them.
"Cut!" Xiao Lin snorted softly, the Mo Yang in his hand waved, and the white sword light slashed out, colliding with those galloping red palms in the air, and the fierce energy storm spread towards the surroundings, bombarding the ground heavily.
Qin Ke and the others did not move at all and were not slow at all, and all kinds of means were deployed to confront the fiercely fluctuating formation.
Su He's figure floated in mid-air, a dazzling light lit up on the Qingshuang Sword, and sharp sword qi flew around him, and then he slashed out silently with a sword, and the brilliant sword light bloomed, slashing towards the black tree.
According to his experience, the formation foundation required for such a huge formation would definitely not be too small, and the most likely thing was that black tree, perhaps as long as it was cut off, it might destroy the entire formation.
However, when the sword light reached the black tree, it disappeared strangely, and it failed to exert its power at all.
Su He's face changed when he saw this, he had encountered this situation many times before, when he fought with the white-clothed scholar before
I've seen it, and the feeling of being swallowed up in space is the same as it is now.
"Sure enough, he did it. Su He muttered softly in his heart, as long as that mysterious organization is involved, the figure of the white-clothed scholar is always indispensable, and the four empires are juggling around, and they don't know the situation of the opponent at all, which is really a very frustrating thing.
"Hey, there's movement ahead!" Mu Xuanyi suddenly shouted, they were about to rush out of the range of the formation, but they found that another light lit up in the distance, and another blue formation appeared on the ground in the distance, blocking the way of Xiao Lin and the others.
"They brought us here on purpose. Xiao Lin said softly, "I estimate that the surroundings are completely covered with all kinds of formations, and now they have been activated by us one by one." ”
"Hahahaha, are you satisfied with the gift I gave you, Suhe?" a smug laugh rang out from the shadows in the distance.
"Hide-and-hide guy. Suhe snorted coldly.
"Long time no see. The figure of the one-armed officer walked out of the shadows, with a smile on his face, his hands clasped in front of his chest, and he looked at Xiao Lin and the others proudly.
"It's you!" Xiao Lin saw the face of the one-armed officer, his face suddenly became fierce, his eyes revealed the light of hatred, and the black flames danced in his eyes.
"It's been more than a year. The one-armed officer looked at Xiao Lin and said, "Time flies so fast, you have grown up a lot." ”
"You're going to die here this time!" Xiao Lin gritted his teeth and said viciously.
"Really?" One-Armed smiled, then pointed to the nearby formation and said, "You guys can get out of trouble first." With that, he was about to leave.
"Stop!" Xiao Lin shouted, the momentum of his whole body exploded, his figure flashed, and he immediately swept towards the officer, and if he touched it here, he would never let him leave easily.
The one-armed officer's eyes flashed with cold killing intent, and he said softly.
"Look for death!"
