Chapter 252: Validating the Conjecture
"So fast!"
The black energy condensed, and a black beam of light was formed almost in the blink of an eye, enveloping Liao Fan's back.
Liao Fan didn't have time to make superfluous movements at all, so he could only take a deep breath and concentrate the flame energy.
The pitch-black bone knife immediately diffused a stream of red flame-like air, and the blade swelled with it, more than doubling its swell.
He let out a deep roar, his waist and abdomen turned, and the blade carried a scorching flame aura, colliding head-on with the black beam.
Bang!
The sound of a huge explosion sounded again, and the smoke from the explosion carried a wave of cold air, which shook Liao Fan's chest fiercely.
Liao Fan snorted, his legs slammed into the ground, and he was shocked by the huge force and slipped back again and again, showing two hideous ravines under his feet, extending nearly three meters.
Of course, the leader of the savages was not feeling well, and the flames on the surface of the bone knife turned into an arc and slashed hard at the shoulders of this guy.
The sharp blade mingled with a surging tongue of fire, creating a crack in his black skin.
However, the flames didn't have time to burn its wounds, and they were quickly forcibly extinguished by the black qi that permeated the body of the savage leader, and at the same time, the wounds that the savage leader had been split were also healing quickly and visibly with the naked eye.
A large amount of corpse qi poured into the body of the savage leader, quickly spreading the wound, and as the corpse qi moved, the wound disappeared immediately.
"This guy's self-healing ability is terrifying!"
The strange scene shocked Liao Fan, and at the same time, there were more wild people roaring behind him.
Without having time to think about it, Liao Fan rotated the bone knife, and his waist and abdomen drove the blade to exert force, cutting out a black arc.
The stretched blade shattered the body of the three-headed savage, forcibly tearing open the encirclement, Liao Fan's speed rose again, and the body wrapped in flames was like a fierce beast that impacted, forcibly smashing away the body of the savage, and rushed to the back of the rocky canyon.
Roar, roar!
The wildlings roared en masse, fearless to continue their charge, threatening to leave the Blue Star intruder behind.
Fortunately, although the savages were fierce, as corpse puppets, their movements were very stiff, and they couldn't catch up with Liao Fan's speed at all.
During the evacuation, Liao Fan also accidentally discovered a detail
- The strength of these wild men all comes from that kind of black corpse qi, once they run out of the rocky canyon, they are no longer covered by corpse qi, and their movements will become very stiff and sluggish, and they can no longer pose any threat to themselves.
As for the leader of the savages, who had the same combat strength as himself, he only occupied the middle position of the canyon, and did not follow with the other savages.
This means that the area where the wild people are active is limited to this canyon covered in dead air.
"Hehe, feelings are just a group of corpse puppets, I think too highly of you."
Thinking of this, Liao Fan's eyes showed a sneer again.
He unfolded his extreme body, and his body turned into an afterimage, and soon appeared on the outside of the rocky canyon, and the pursuing savages also stopped one after another, and they all stood viciously at the edge of the canyon.
Although the wildlings were eager to attack and tear the intruder to pieces.
But they didn't dare to leave the canyon covered in corpse gas, and they all waved their claws and let out a strange roar of "ahhhhh
Liao Fan stopped running wildly, paused and looked back at the wild people crowded at the edge of the canyon, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
Immediately, his body moved, and he turned back again, and with a dive, he went straight to the wild man at the edge of the canyon.
"Roar!"
When the savages saw Liao Fan going and returning, they immediately let out a roar, waved their black claws, and collectively attacked the target.
Liao Fan didn't have any intention of hitting it hard, avoiding the claws of most of the savages, his body spun, and he went around to a relatively thin savage, stretched out his left hand, and used his five fingers to clasp the savage's shoulder, and pulled it back violently.
Roar!
The wild man struggled hard, but he was powerless to resist Liao Fan's strange force, and his body fell out of the canyon uncontrollably, and he fell hard into the turf.
The moment the body fell, the wild man tried to continue to get up, but his movements became very slow.
Having lost the support of corpse qi, its body resembled a pile of rusty parts, and its movements became slower and slower, and soon it ran out of strength and became an immobile dry corpse.
"That's ...... like this"
The scene in front of him perfectly verified Liao Fan's conjecture.
It seems that the wildlings only have the ability to fight after inhaling that corpse qi, and once they are out of the corpse qi, they cannot pose a threat to themselves.
And just as Liao Fan was in thought, a low roar came from the woods outside the canyon, "Liao Fan, what's the matter with these monsters, oh my God...... How do they look like humans? ”
Liao Fan raised his head and saw two figures rushing towards here, he immediately smiled, shook his head and said,
"These wildlings are supposed to be unique to this plane, and although they look very similar to humans, they don't have the ability to think humans."
Afterwards, Liao Fan stepped past the corpse of the savage and strode towards Meng Yao and Sun Mu.
Meng Yao looked nervously at the corpse of the savage underground, and then looked up at the rocky canyon shrouded in black corpse qi, his brows trembling slightly,
"What the hell is going on, where did these wild men come from, and why didn't we find out before?"
"Their nest is under the crack in the ground, and they rarely jump out of the ground to move, so we don't have a sense of it, let's get out of here first."
Liao Fan didn't want to waste time here, and immediately led the two away from the rocky canyon and came to the black rainforest.
After leaving the canyon, the environment became quiet again, and Liao Fan led the two to leave while telling what he had just discovered.
Meng Yao and Sun Mu were both dumbfounded, and were stunned for a while before saying, "So, the source of those zombie viruses should be in the cracks under the canyon?" ”
"Yes!"
Liao Fan nodded, but then furrowed his eyebrows again, and said his judgment in a deep voice,
"And according to my guess, those wildlings are also infected with this virus to become so crazy, and if we want to get close to that crack, we have to face the attack of the wildlings."
Meng Yaoqi said, "In other words, those corpse qi have completely controlled these wild people and cultivated them into puppets, right?" ”
Liao Fan nodded, hummed lightly, and then said with a wry smile helplessly,
"The environment of the outer universe is really weird, I can sense that under those corpses, there is also a kind of consciousness hidden to the extreme, maybe it is this consciousness that is controlling those wild people, I am afraid that this time the action will not be as smooth as imagined."
Meng Yao and Sun Mu stopped talking, silently followed behind Liao Fan, and broke away from the black rainforest as fast as they could.
About half an hour later, the three of them returned to the spatial passage again, and immediately followed the passage back to the real world.
While returning to the real world, Liao Fan also immediately sensed a large number of footsteps around him, and then a voice full of anxiety came,
"What's the matter with you, you've been delayed in the outer universe for so long, I thought you had an accident and there was no way to come back!"
