Chapter Eighty-Three: The Black Tide

Nangong Buqi's basis for judging the safety of Xiaohe Town was very simple: after observation and induction, he confirmed that there was no extraordinary combat power in the town that was higher than Su An and the others.

As everyone approached the outskirts of the town, there was a sudden tsunami explosion in the town, and one wave after another, and clusters of flames rose into the sky.

In the movement of the decomposition and collapse of the building, all kinds of human screams, shouts, and cries, mixed with the horns and alarms of cars, came along with them, and Su An and the others frowned when they heard it.

In the midst of all the noise, the most striking thing was the sound of gunfire and a certain savage and unbridled shouting and laughter, as if the beasts and demons had taken over the town in an instant, and were burning everywhere.

The sudden change was abrupt, and everyone didn't have time to think, Su An, Zhang Yuying, and Li Qingyun glanced at each other, and hurriedly moved forward quickly with a gun in hand, observing left and right while always ready to fight.

The first thing I encountered was the panicked and fleeing townspeople, mostly women and children, young and old, many of whom were covered in dust and blood, and they looked back from time to time, their faces full of fear of encountering ghosts.

Su An and the others walked forward again, and found that the residential buildings and streets and alleys of the town were full of all kinds of monsters:

Some of them are like wild beasts, with green eyes, full of hair, sharp nails and bare fangs, which are very frightening, jackals, tigers and leopards, and they are on all fours when they run, and they move quickly;

Some look like giants, but they are half-human and half-machine monsters, or their arms have become chainsaws, or their legs have become wheels, or their bodies are covered with iron chains, or half of their faces are blurred with flesh and blood, or mechanical wings grow from their backs;

More often than not, they are chaotic, neither beasts nor robots, but they are all shocking mutants, burning, looting, and smashing shops everywhere, chasing and killing panicked townspeople.

"Wild beasts" bite the bodies of men and women, "cyborgs" cut through the flesh of young and old, and "monsters" pounce on helpless women and children, leaving the town spilled with blood and the remains of severed limbs.

Blood splashed on the walls of the building like an oil painting, and severed limbs lay like weeds in the streets.

The pungent smell of blood rushed straight to Su An's head, and he felt as if he had fallen into a flesh purgatory.

But he could see clearly that whether it was a "beast", a "cyborg" or other "monsters", large and small, they clearly still retained human characteristics.

Although he didn't know much, he could tell at a glance that these monsters were all transformed from humans.

"What the hell is going on?"

Squatting in front of the house wall on the side of the street, letting the fleeing townspeople run past him, Su An did not shoot rashly, but turned back to ask Zhang Yuying and Li Qingyun.

He hoped that these two veteran transcendents who knew a lot about the Chaos Lands would be able to explain what was in front of him.

"As you can see, this is the 'Kuroshio'." Zhang Yuying's voice was low, full of murderous aura.

"Kuroshio?" Su An only knew that the "Black Tide" was one of the major forces in the Land of Chaos, and it was as famous as the "rebels" and "churches".

Li Qingyun took over the conversation and explained in depth: "The 'Black Tide' is known as the plague of the Land of Chaos, and the core is a group of madmen who have mastered genetic optimization and body modification technology.

"They claim to be elite scientists, but in fact their academic ability is limited, and the various technologies in their hands are not mature, and what they create is the kind of monster in front of them.

"They use such monsters as minions, and they take over many towns in the Chaos Lands by storming and attacking their opponents.

"It's not an exaggeration to describe it as a bomb that could get out of control at any moment."

Hearing these words, Su An was silent for a while.

Because of the existence of the Force, the Xia Shang Continent is respected for its extraordinary combat power, don't look at the social sect like Anxia Sect that is restricted and controlled by the government, in fact, it is already a human being.

There are various restrictions and thresholds for becoming a transcendent, such as wealth and paths, and the vast majority of human beings in this world are unable to cultivate, and they are still ordinary people who cannot become transcendental.

Ordinary people can't have extraordinary combat power through normal channels and become rich and powerful, so they can only find another way.

The transcendent history of the demon race is 10,000 years long, and the transcendent journey of human beings also spans more than 2,000 years.

The so-called shortcut, that is, the folk route to become a transcendent, or the "side door", is not an exaggeration to call it a "folk science".

The orthodox path to becoming a transcendent is to take the official Force potion and practice the official spiritual method. It is "orthodox" because it is reliable.

Although the official cultivation qualification is not easy to obtain, the exercises and potions are very reliable, and there will be no abnormal changes when you take it, simply put, you will not go mad.

But "civil science" is different.

Those so-called Force scientists among the people do not have the strong scientific research strength of the official, although they have occasional gains, but they are not systematic and rigorous, and their exercises and potions are easy to cause people to change.

Even many "partial door" cultivation methods were in the wrong direction from the beginning.

For example, imitating the power of beasts, hoping to have the strength of a bear or the speed of a leopard by taking potions, or transforming oneself into a half-machine, half-human existence through neuronal connection technology.

The "Kuroshio" is a group of extremist organizations that use medicines, exercises, and technical means with obvious side effects to cultivate war machines for themselves.

They also have their own normal transcendents, all of whom are existences that can't get along in human cities, most of them are criminals, and they are wanted by the government.

In the beginning, they relied on these transcendents to force ordinary people to take their potions and accept their transformation. Later, there were more and more ordinary people who were willing to become their knives.

It is not easy to be an ordinary person in the Xia Shang Continent, and the vast majority of them are destined to be oppressed and exploited by the strong for the rest of their lives, being dogs to the strong, living without dignity, and not being able to exchange for a stable and happy life.

However, the Xia Shang Continent is also a world of great material abundance, where there are thousands of drunken gold fans, and countless temptations are beckoning to everyone.

As a result, in order to pursue stronger strength, more wealth, and higher enjoyment, many people have become minions of organizations like the "Kuroshio", taking their medicines, accepting their transformation, cultivating their exercises, and becoming their screws.

In the final analysis, it is too difficult to achieve class ascent by becoming a transcendent person through normal channels.

It's just that becoming a minion of the "Kuroshio" is not a beautiful thing.

The "Black Tide" is not an organization for the benefit of all sentient beings, they just take advantage of the desire of ordinary people to be promoted, and control them with various drugs and exercises with obvious side effects, making them their eagle dogs and cannon fodder.

Just looking at these delirious monsters in front of him, Su An knew that those ordinary people who wanted to pursue great power through the "side gate" and obtain more wealth and a better life had actually become powerful ghosts controlled by the "Black Tide".

The weak draw their swords and slew at the weaker.

Su An's face sank like water.

"Su ...... Su'an, Xiaohe Town is already in chaos, shall we leave here? The most important thing now is to go back to Jizhou City, we don't know them, so there is no need to make trouble. It was Liu Siyan who spoke.

She followed Su An all the way, maybe she felt that the other party was the same age as her, and the two were naturally closer, or maybe she instinctively sensed that Zhang Yuying and Li Qingyun were not easy to mess with, so she could only get close to Su An for protection.

She is a person who is used to being protected.

Liu Siyan continued in a bewitching voice: "It's okay if it's chaotic here, so that no one will notice us." We'll replenish what we want, and then leave here immediately, maybe we can make our way through the demon blockade while we're in chaos......"

Su An ignored Liu Siyan, he looked back at Zhang Yuying and Li Qingyun.

Zhang Yuying sneered: "I'm not a beast. ”

Li Qingyun didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

So Su An jumped out, drew his sword in his hand, and rushed towards the monsters chasing and killing the townspeople!

Zhang Yuying and Li Qingyun got up one after another, aiming at the beasts and cyborg bodies in the buildings and streets one after another, and pulled the trigger mercilessly!

Zhang Yuying's meaning is very clear: she is not a beast, so she can't turn a blind eye to the bloody acts of mutilating her kind, she wants to destroy the monsters created by the group of "Black Tide" in front of her, and protect the lives of those ordinary townspeople!

Liu Siyan froze in place, her face full of incomprehension and overwhelm.

......

"Indulge, kill! Unleash your power, my darlings, and enjoy the glory of dominating the lives and deaths of others, and let these ants be your sustenance! ”

On the roof of a private house, Li Haocun opened his arms and closed his eyes, and sang loudly with great devotion.

He is the head of Kuroshio in Little River Town, and he is also the strongest transcendent in Little River Town, but he is not the only master of Little River Town before today. There are also two powerful gangs here, which have been the obstacles to Kuroshio's control of the town.

But after today, both gangs will cease to exist.

He will represent Kuroshio and completely acquire the town of Little River.

When he closed his eyes, Li Haocun could feel the presence and mood swings of the mutants, and there was a certain connection between them established by the Force Elixir, which allowed him to command and control the delirious mutants.

At this moment, Li Haocun felt that he was a god.

A god with many servants who can control the life, death, honor and disgrace of the entire River Town.

"Director Li, the Axe Gang and the Golden Dragon Gang have collapsed, are you going to check the wealth they left behind now?" A fifth-level transcendent came behind Li Haocun.

Li Haocun opened his eyes, smiled slightly, and gently flicked the dust that did not exist on his robe, and his demeanor was leisurely.

Although Xiaohe Town is not a good place and cannot provoke transcendents above level 6, there are tens of thousands of townspeople, and the benefits are a lot.

The strength of the Axe Gang and the Golden Dragon Gang is not weak, the gang leaders are all level six, and there are many transcendents under their command.

Over the past few years, there has been some kind of balance between them.

But now, that balance has been upset.

Some time ago, the upper echelons of the Black Tide reached an agreement with the Northern Demon Clan, and on the condition of cooperating with the Yan Kingdom, they received a lot of preferential treatment from the other party, including the purchase of the other party's high-end goods at low prices.

For this reason, Kuroshio obtained a large amount of the "King Kong Fury Eye" potion, which was then diluted and added to a formula that controlled the mind of the person who took it, to make a new Elixir that conformed to the Kuroshio style.

Kuroshio named it "New Hope".

Li Haocun's Xiaohe Town was divided a lot.

He captured the young man in the town overnight, stepped up his transformation, forced him to take "New Hope", turned him into a Kuroshio warrior, and threw this gas potion into the base of the Axe Gang and the Golden Dragon Gang, and soon caused many transcendents in the two gangs to mutate and become objects under his control.

Because of this, Li Haocun was able to control Xiaohe Town.

But New Hope has two obvious side effects:

The first is that the user is delirious and his intelligence is greatly reduced, and the second is that the ferocity of the user is greatly stimulated, and the desire to destroy and kill is greatly increased, and if the desire is not vented, it is difficult to control it.

The previous side effect Li Haocun didn't take to heart.

According to the arrangement of the upper echelons of the Black Tide, they will next go east through the Black Stone Ridge and attack the Guandu City officially controlled by Jizhou City.

The second side effect is also easy to solve, just let them kill the townspeople of Little River Town and release some ferocity.

Li Haocun came down from the private house and was about to go to the Axe Gang and the Golden Dragon Gang base to check the loot, when he suddenly heard a transcendent person urgently report:

"Director Li, it's not good, someone has entered Xiaohe Town and is slaughtering our mutant warriors!"

Li Haocun frowned: "Who dares to spoil my good deeds?" What kind of cultivation does the other party do? ”

"I don't know where it came from, four sixth-level combat powers!" The subordinate hurriedly replied.

Li Haocun laughed: "It's just four sixth-level, and it will be killed in minutes, what are you panicking about?" ”

Xiaohe Town has a total of three sixth-level, except that he is the leader of the Axe Gang and the Golden Dragon Gang, but the latter two have been killed by their mutant men.

Now Li Haocun has dozens of transcendents under him, and the mutant body can form a battalion, and he is afraid that he will not be able to kill only four or six levels?

"Director Li, kill, can't kill, they're very strong...... Director Li, they're coming! His subordinate suddenly pointed to the street, and his voice trembled in warning.
