......

In a forest outside the city of Muslim, three figures were speeding up in the jungle at this moment, scouting all the way.

"It's Lingdaoling ahead, and we're going to see if we find anything before it gets dark. ”

The leader made a mark on the tree and said, "Ganmo, you go here!" Seven stars, you are in charge of the search over there, and you will come back here in a quarter of an hour to assemble." ”

"Yes!" the two said in unison.

In fact, this three-person group of people and horses is the seat of the tower guard, Lei Li and his two guards, one is called Gan Mo, the other is Qixing, Lei Li is taking his left and right guards, through the outer woods to Lingdaoling.

At this moment, Lei Li has gone deep into a jungle, and the towering trees here are one after another.

It is like a protective umbrella covering this place, overlapping layer by layer, blocking most of the sunlight, giving people a very cool feeling, and there is also an inexplicable sense of depression.

I saw Lei Li looking up as he walked, and then looked around.

He found that the more he explored the depths of the forest, the stronger the oppressive feeling became, and he didn't know where this invisible shackle came from.

And this forest is unusually quiet, except for the slightest sound of the wind, not to mention the animals, not even a bird has been found, it is really unusual.

"How so? What the hell is going on in this forest? I haven't felt this way before..."

Lei Li muttered unclear.

"Zajiao, I haven't found anything here!" Qixing said as he hurried back.

"The time has passed, why haven't you come back yet?" Qixing looked in the direction on the other side, and said with a mental estimate of time.

"Let's go over and have a look!" Lei Li said worriedly.

Suddenly, not far from the jungle, an extremely strong signal light flashed in the sky, appearing quickly and passing quickly.

Lei Li and Gan Mo recognized it at a glance that it was a signal flare, and Lei Li saw that the location of the signal was Gan Mo's side, so he immediately rushed over with Qixing.

Walking through the woods, Lei Li soon spotted Gan Mo in the distance.

"What did you find?"

Lei Li asked as soon as he rushed over.

"You're here, I'll show you!"

Gan Mo frowned, pointed to the corpses lying in the jungle in front of him, and said.

"This ...... What's going on?"

Lei Li looked shocked, as if he couldn't believe the scene he saw in front of him.

"I... Damn, what's going on? We've never encountered this death, are they self-immolating?" Qixing also asked in disbelief with a shocked expression.

"No, their clothes are still intact, have you ever seen a self-immolation with a change of clothes? ”

Gan Mo said calmly.

"This ......"

Qixing stammered and didn't know how to answer, this is indeed too bizarre, I have never seen a self-immolation person's clothes remain so intact.

"Then he, they shouldn't be the members of the Seventeenth Division, right?" Qi Xingyuan said in surprise with a glaring eye.

"Hmm!" Lei Li replied with a frown, he recognized the clothes.

At this moment, his heart was extremely heavy, he thought that they still had the possibility of survival, but he didn't expect to see them again, but they were already covered with corpses, and this kind of death was something they had never encountered.

Sad to heart, Lei Li still wanted to check to see what was going on, so he casually broke a long branch and turned over a corpse to check.

These corpses have been changed beyond recognition, leaving a layer of skinny and bony black charred skin, like dried corpses, and the posture is also strange, and it seems that they are dying quickly.

Some seem to have died before they had time to struggle, because the posture of death is so natural, and it stands to reason that this will not happen if they are burned to death, unless they are dead before the burn, but no fatal wounds are found.

"What the hell happened to them? The whole detachment was wiped out, this is the whole detachment! And strangely, they didn't even have the slightest wound on their bodies, and the way they died was so strange that it seemed unreasonable. ”

Qixing held his chin and frowned.

"Look at the sword on the ground, the energy of the holy light crystal on the hilt of the sword seems to be still full, and then combine these symptoms of dying without wounds,

I guess there probably wasn't any fight before they died...... It's not even too late to ......," Gan Mo calmly analyzed.

Lei Li raised his eyes to look at Gan Mo and Qixing, and the three of them nodded silently.

I checked it many times, but I still didn't have a clue what happened to these people.

At this moment, Lei Li suddenly remembered something and said, "Their guild teacher, Captain Dawn, is not here?"

"According to what you said, there are only half of the people here, and I guess they are separated. Qixing, you are in charge of this side, and I will go over there to check. ”

After Gan Mo finished speaking, he and Qixing acted separately.

Lei Li stood in place and observed the surrounding environment, Lei Li's eyes were sharp, and he suddenly found that one of the grasses had traces of trampling, so he continued to look for the past in the depths of the jungle with the traces.

As far as the eye could see, there were still scattered black corpses lying in the jungle in front of them.

Not long after, Qixing and Gan Mo also rushed over to join Lei Li.

"Zajiao, there are still a few found over there, they should have been separated. Gan Mo reported.

Qixing walked over and said in surprise, "Zuojiao, they ......"

"Is it the same to die...... Lei Li sighed sadly.

"Well, it's the same situation!" Gan Mo's eyes couldn't be explained.

"There are no bite wounds on the epidermis, and there are no scratches, this, these are not the style of the Blood Eaters, what happened to them?" Qixing's face turned pale, puzzled.

"Did you find the corpse of their team's leader Dawn?"

Lei Li asked while looking through the corpses for examination, and in the face of these unrecognizable corpses, he could only identify them by his clothes and the items he carried.

"No!" Ganmo responded.

"Zajiao, there is a two-star refined silver sword that can teach teachers here, but his body has not been found in the vicinity. ”

Qixing picked up a sword in the grass nearly three feet away from Lei Li and said.

Gan Mo pointed to the suspended spar on the hilt of the two-star refined silver sword and said:

"You see, the Holy Light Crystal on the hilt of his sword is still full, I remember that he just changed the Holy Light Crystal last time, and he has never been on a mission before, which means that even he did not use the sword's inscription ability at that time. ”

Lei Li nodded in agreement with his statement, and then asked, "Ganmo, have you counted the number of people?"

"Well, judging by the clothing, there are seventy-six priests, and one is supposed to be a civilian. "Don't say.

"So, it's one person missing, and his sword is lost here, this guy shouldn't be ......," Seven Star guessed.

"Probably not, I still know a little bit about Dawn, and as a teacher, he won't do this, even discarding his own weapons, presumably, he..."

Gan Mo held his chin gloomily and said sadly.

Lei Li looked around as he walked around to see if there were any other clues to discover. Suddenly, somewhere, he seemed to spot something different in color from the weeds and bushes.

I saw him walk over with a slight frown, and then cautiously lifted the grass pile, and suddenly, above some blades of grass, he found a pool of blood that had not yet completely coagulated, and he suddenly became puzzled.

Obviously, there was no blood around here, even if these people did not shed a drop of blood after they died, but there were blood stains here, which made him puzzled for a while.

Then he reached out and touched it, and then leaned closer to his nose and sniffed, but he couldn't see the reason, and then took off a ghost-patterned bronze medal from his belt, and dripped blood onto the bronze plate.

To be continued......
