Chapter 070: Something Worse Than Death

The sky was getting more and more hazy, accompanied by the sound of muffled thunder.

Dozens of figures flew between the trees, as fast as a gust of wind, one following the other.

Judging by the outfits of these people, they should all be mercenaries.

"Quick, it should be not far ahead!" Yu Hai said with a somewhat anxious expression.

These people were the mercenaries that Meng Laike had invited, and after several hours of continuous searching, they finally had a little clue.

Just now, they saw a huge ball of earth explode in the air from a distance, and if there was no mistake, it should be the location of the teachers and students.

Perhaps because they saw hope, the mercenaries, who were originally a little tired, couldn't help but speed up.

When it was time to cover a pillar of incense, they finally came to the location.

However, what they saw made all of them gasp.

It's miserable, it's terrible!

The thick smell of blood penetrated into the nostrils, and the corpses and flesh could be seen everywhere, even these mercenaries, who often licked blood on the blades, couldn't help but turn pale and grit their teeth when they saw such a scene.

"Damn, what brute can be so ruthless?" a straightforward mercenary clenched his fists.

"Even the child was spared, didn't the murderer have any mercy at all?"

The other mercenary was also quite angry, so he couldn't catch the murderer and cut it to pieces.

Although the other mercenaries didn't say anything, it was not difficult to tell from their increasingly cold eyes that they were also enraged by the murderer's cruel methods.

"Everyone, we must hurry up and look around to see if there are any other survivors!"

Yu Hai seemed to have a flat face, but he was the most angry one among everyone.

As a poor child who came out of the "grassroots enlightenment school", if there was no "grassroots enlightenment school", he would not be where he is now.

He would never tolerate such a horrific murderer!

The mercenaries nodded, and began to get busy.

Among these mercenaries, Yu Hai has the highest strength and the most right to speak, especially when everyone learned that he was a member of the "Flying Tiger Mercenary Group", and even acquiesced to his identity as the leader this time.

"No survivors were found. ”

"Not here!"

“……”

The mercenaries searched around carefully, and they all shook their heads in disappointment.

In fact, they didn't have much hope, just from the murderer's cruel methods, it can be imagined that they will never be soft on anyone.

Although Yu Hai also thought of this result, he believed that there must be other survivors, because the death toll at the scene was only about two decades, which was a huge difference from the number given by Meng Laike.

"Time is precious now, and we are working in groups of five to go our separate ways, and I'm sure there will be survivors. After a pause, Yu Hai said categorically, "If you encounter a murderer, the signal will be proof!"

Almost everyone saw the cold light that flashed in his eyes.

In a clearing on a hillside, Yu Hai's five-person team took the lead in finding Luneng and the others who had been assembled.

At that moment, Yu Hai didn't even notice that he was relieved.

After a brief conversation, Yu Hai had a general understanding of what happened, but he was still unclear about many important details.

"The three ghosts of the corpse, I seem to have heard of it somewhere, are they the murderers?"

With the doubts in his heart, Yu Hai left the other four mercenaries behind to protect the frightened children here, while he continued to search for the survivors and try to join the teacher Liu Hong.

The dark clouds in the sky were getting thicker and thicker, and the thunder was bursting, and it was still morning, but it was so gloomy that it seemed like night.

At this time, Liu Hong stopped moving rapidly, and sweat was already oozing from her beautiful and fair face.

Looking at the dense trees around her, Liu Hong's eyebrows tightened, and she didn't know which direction she should continue to search!

"Damn!"

The anxious mood made Liu Hong lose her due calm.

With a wave of his arm, a flash of fire burst on, instantly setting a tree on fire.

She wouldn't mind if she could find Wang Junqi by burning all these trees, but in fact this kind of action was useless except for wasting mana in vain!

"Kiki, where the hell are you?"

Looking at the dark blue flame in his chest, which had shrunk many times, Liu Hong's heart was like a knife, and he once again realized his paleness and powerlessness!

After just after some frantic exploration, her "Nether Detection" ability has shrunk again, and the range she can perceive is less than 100 meters.

This also means that her possibility of finding Wang Junqi will become more and more slim!

Unless some miracle happens, even if she finally finds Wang Junqi, she may be an incomplete corpse at that time.

The strong unwillingness and worry became more and more intense, which actually made this strong woman cry!

No matter how strong she is, Liu Hong is still a woman after all!

The muffled thunder in the sky began to tighten, and in just a moment, raindrops the size of beans began to fall.

The cold rain washed over the woman's face, and the slightest coolness gradually made Liu Hong gradually regain her calmness.

No matter how anxious you are, before you see Wang Junqi, you still have a chance!

Liu Hong was about to pack up her mood and continue to search, and at this moment, a miracle appeared.

Suddenly-

A column of water rose into the sky, circling and dancing like a dragon, and the momentum was still terrifying from a distance.

"Water magic?"

Liu Hong's leg that was about to take a step was frozen there, and the whole person looked like he was in a trance like a lightning bolt.

It should indeed be considered water magic, but what made Liu Hong hesitate was that she had never seen such a strange magic.

The water column that was like a dragon could grow stronger every time it danced, and the rain falling from the sky seemed to be summoned, and it actually gathered in a large area.

"Click!"

With a bolt of lightning tearing through the dark clouds, it was a terrifyingly shaped column of water that thundered straight into the ground.

And yet—

The water column was not dispersed, but rather made it glow brightly.

"It's hard to ...... Could it be ......?"

Liu Hong seemed to have thought of something, and the shocked expression on her face did not decrease, but worsened.

With his mouth open, he wanted to say something, but he seemed to be stuck in his throat by something, and he couldn't make a sound.

However, Liu Hong didn't know that her shock and horror were not comparable to the three corpse-devouring ghosts at this moment.

The three of them witnessed the whole process up close, and the disdain and contempt in their hearts were replaced by overwhelming fear in an instant!

If there is anything more terrible than "death", it is "waiting for death"!

Just now, the three corpse devouring ghosts were still unabashedly laughing at the inadequacy of the little ghost in front of them, but this little ghost just waved his hand and instantly shut up all three of them!
