Chen Xi When they returned to the camp, it was almost dawn unconsciously, and if they went out and came back alive this time, everyone had a kind of joy for the rest of their lives, and a kind of powerlessness after suddenly relaxing. Maybe this incident will not disappear from their memories for a long, long time, even if they think about it by chance in the future, a layer of cold sweat will appear on their backs in fear.

In Xu Ji's Chinese army tent, everyone gathered around to look at the corpse. Under the lights, the appearance of this thing is more visible, so it is even more terrifying. If an ordinary person saw it, he was afraid that he would be so frightened that he would go straight there, and he wouldn't even dare to walk at night in the future.

The head of this thing is seventy or eighty centimeters long, like a crooked melon, and the upper part of the head looks like a long crooked melon, bulging, but not smooth. Although it is almost transparent, you can see the brain under the skin. In other words, their bones are more transparent, higher than their skin and brain organs.

Hou Junji went over and stabbed the corpse with a stick, and found that it was very hard, and the corpse became stiff after being dead for a long time. However, it can also be judged from this that at least after death, this thing is no different from a person, and it will become hard.

"In other words, this thing had a body temperature when it was alive. ”

Hou Junji looked at Chen Xi and asked, "Since you have body temperature, don't you notice it at all?"

Chen Xi shook his head: "Even if there is body temperature, it should change immediately with the change of the environment." The temperature in the sky is as high as their body temperature. The temperature of the earth is as high as its temperature. ”

Hou Junji nodded, he understood what Chen Xi meant. In other words, these things have the ability to become invisible, they are not really invisible, but they can make their aura become the same as their surroundings. If they are in the middle of the earth, then they are part of the earth, and it is impossible to find out by their senses. Not to mention these demigods, even these true gods are afraid and powerless.

"Luckily, they don't have too many attacks. ”

Chen Xi walked closer, squatted down and picked the teeth of the thing out of his mouth with the wooden stick in his hand: "This should be similar to poisonous fangs, after biting people, some venom will be injected in, this venom can instantly make the bitten person assimilate with them, and the bitten person dies instantly, but the body also becomes transparent." Of course, it's not really transparent, but it's part of the environment. So when we are hung in the air, or pulled into the earth, we can't immediately notice it. ”

Next to the corpse of this big-headed thing, there were two severed arms of the demigod brought back and several corpses. These corpses were preserved in the last battle, because they were afraid of their own blood.

Fei Qing also squatted down and looked at the broken arm of the broken arm: "This is not the slime left by those things, but the blood that has changed the body of the demigod." In other words, after the fangs were stabbed, the blood of the demigods was instantly turned into this slime, so there would not be a little smell of blood. ”

"What the hell is this?"

There was a whisper in the tent.

Xu Ji's face was a little cold, what he cared about was not the corpse in front of him, but the huge crisis hidden behind this corpse. He glanced at Chen Xi and found that Chen Xi was also looking at him.

"You all go out and take the corpse down, whether it is this thing or ours, let the military doctor with the army check it, carefully investigate it, and report the results immediately. Chen Xi, you stay, everyone else goes back, restrain the army, and don't attack for the time being. ”

Everyone clenched their fists and bowed their heads, and then withdrew from the tent.

"What are you worried about?"

Xu Ji asked.

Chen Xi sighed: "It's the same as your worries. ”

Xu Ji was silent for a while, and then his face softened slightly: "It's a big deal, we don't want this army of the Demon Domain, let them go." We won't take this road, let's move forward in another place. The fact that the Scout hadn't encountered this anywhere else meant that it wasn't everywhere. ”

"What if they weren't geographically restricted, they were only there because the Demon Domain's army was tempting us to move on. ”

Chen Xi said: "If this is the case, then every next battle will not be easy to fight." These things are almost invisible in the night, and if they attack at night, we can't prevent them at all. They can fly in the sky or travel through the earth, and our senses have no effect on them. Even if they're already under our feet, we won't even notice them. If a large number of such things are suddenly killed from our camp, then the loss can be imagined. ”

Xu Ji said: "I have already sent the order, all the four-winged divine servants have joined forces to make a rune array, changing the underground environment and becoming as hard as iron, the large array can last for a few days, and a ban has also been set up in the sky, so there is no need to worry about the enemy's night attack for the time being." The most worrying thing is how to go in the future."

Even a person like him had a sad look on his face, which showed how big the problems encountered by the Divine Domain this time were

Chen Xi sorted out everything he saw and heard, trying to sort out a clear context in his mind, but even so, he didn't get a lot of news. The unfamiliarity with the Demon Domain doomed even a person as smart as him to become clueless.

"It's good not to have to worry about night raids, but in the future, you can't just go back to the Divine Domain. ”

Xu Ji's face was not good-looking, because he felt a little aggrieved, he obviously noticed the other party's conspiracy, and he obviously knew the other party's tricks, but because he knew and couldn't find a solution, this kind of grievance would be even stronger. When has a person of his identity ever been so aggrieved.

"As you said, if these things can move freely without geographical restrictions, then we won't be able to fight in the future. ”

Xu Ji paced back and forth in the big tent, his pace was very fast and urgent, and the footsteps were very broken, indicating that his heart was a little chaotic at this time.

"If they can move at will, then we will wait in front of us no matter where we set our goal or where the army is heading, and they will deal a fatal blow to the marching army if we can't prevent it. If the number of these things exceeds ten thousand, it will be enough to confuse my army. If the number of these things exceeds a hundred thousand, then it will be enough for my army to rout. ”

"It doesn't need to be as much as a hundred thousand. ”

Chen Xi said: "As long as thirty or fifty thousand, it is enough to make the army chaotic and difficult to control." Don't forget to be afraid that this sentiment will spread much faster than the plague. Once some of them become irrational when they are scared, they will become equally scared even if the team behind them doesn't see them. There used to be a story called Gollum Knock, which was told to children, but it made perfect sense. ”

Chen Xi told Xu Ji this fable again, and Xu Ji's face became even more ugly.

"What the hell is going to do?"

He looked at Chen Xi: "I know, you will definitely be able to figure out a way." ”

"There's a way, and that's to pretend not to know. The enemy is not a large army that has not moved, and it is clear that they have nothing to fear. I don't know how powerful a true god is tonight, but I think it's enough to sweep the entire world of demigods, even if it can't, it's not much. Let the true gods do their hand and sweep away those things. ”

"If I could, wouldn't I do that?"

Xu Ji glanced at Chen Xi and was silent for a while before he said: "In fact, the Divine Domain is far from being as prosperous as you imagined, and the reason why some things can't be said is because once you say it, then it will be a crisis even more terrible than the plague you said, and it can't be stopped. After I tell you about this, even if I really want to keep you as a friend, once the news leaks, I will still kill you. ”

He said slowly: "Since a long, long time ago, there have been problems in the Divine Domain, and many true gods have contracted a strange disease, and their cultivation is constantly declining, even if everyone in the Divine Domain is racking their brains to find a way, they still can't stop the spread of this disease. Now the true god world at the top level of the divine domain seems to be still prosperous on the surface, but in fact, there are very few people who can possess the strength of the distant true god. Some people say that this is because the power from the bloodline is fading after too many years. ”

Chen Xi couldn't help but ask, "That's why you held the Battle of the Chosen One?"

Xu Ji's face changed: "You guessed?"

Chen Xi nodded: "Because the strength of the true god is constantly declining, and there are very few people who maintain the strength of the true god now, so you have to hold the battle of the Chosen One, choose the best of them to draw the power of the bloodline, and try to save this situation." Obviously, though, it doesn't seem to be very effective. ”

Xu Ji said: "You're right, the original Battle of the Chosen One was indeed for this reason. Because of the weakness of the power of the bloodline, more and more true gods have lost their former strength, but this kind of thing cannot be spread, and once it spreads, it will be an uproar. So I came up with the Chosen War, and then extracted the blood of the best among the demigods, trying to find a solution. However, the elixir made from these blood can only slow down the speed at which the power disappears. ”

"So a long time ago, the Lord of the Divine Domain judged that our environment had changed. Not because the power of our bloodline is weak, but because the environment has changed. ”

Chen Xi said: "Just like the Tianfu Continent, after several wars, the Tianyuan is thin, and it is no longer enough for the emergence of cultivators in the Full Realm Realm. After I leave, I'm afraid that even the number of cultivators in the cave realm will become smaller and smaller. ”

Xu Ji snorted: "It's not just the place of the Divine Domain, but the entire Moqiong environment over the Black Gold Mountain is like this. As long as we stay there, our divine power will continue to weaken. ”

Chen Xi was silent and then said, "So, this is the fundamental reason why the Lord of the Divine Domain has to dig up the Black Gold Mountain and try to occupy the other side of the Mo Dome?"

Xu Ji said: "That's probably the case, if this goes on for a long time, the Divine Domain will exist in name only." So now, if the true god makes a move, what if the other party is just trying to lure the true god to make a move? Our strength will be completely exposed, because the number of true gods we can fight now is too small and too few, and all the authority and status of the true gods are actually an illusion that has to be created. A large part of us is no longer qualified to continue to be on the top. ”

He looked at Chen Xi: "Is it sad? Everyone in the demigod world still thinks that the true god is the supreme representative, but in fact, the strength of many true gods has fallen to the realm of false gods. The most terrifying thing is that some newly-born children no longer have the bloodline of true gods, maybe in a few thousand years, or even hundreds of years, under the rule of the god domain, there will be no true gods. ”

Chen Xi shook his head, speechless.
