Chapter 401: No direct contact, otherwise you will be assimilated unknowingly
The dim lights swayed in the night wind,
Everything around the pothole is reflected in shadow,
It seems that there are countless pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness watching every move here.
In the pit, the two humanoid monsters that looked like they had been skinned stood upright,
Their postures are stiff and twisted,
Like an evil spirit crawling out of the depths of hell,
He was forcibly imprisoned in this small place by some evil and mysterious force.
They raised their chins, and their dark eyes were like two bottomless black holes,
It exudes an eerie atmosphere of death.
In the eye sockets, blood seeped out, slowly sliding down their miserable cheeks,
A pool of dark red blood gathered on the ground, and the smell of blood filled the air, making people sick to smell it.
They just stared at the people standing at the edge of the pothole,
The empty eyes carry some kind of invisible curse, which makes people shudder.
Just by being stared at by them, there is a trance-like feeling that one's soul will be dragged into an endless abyss of darkness.
Zheng Bolan, Zheng Xuezhen, Zheng Qifeng and Xiang Xiufang, a family of four, stood on the edge of the pothole,
Witnessing this horrifying scene, I felt a chill from the bottom of my feet to the top of my head.
It was like being thrown from the scorching heat of summer to an extremely cold place of ice and snow in an instant.
The night wind blowing around now became as cold and ruthless as an ice knife,
The cuts on their faces and bodies made their bodies tremble violently involuntarily.
Even Zheng Xuezhen, who is usually timid and afraid of ghosts,
I was so frightened by this horrific scene that my face turned pale and my lips were bloodless,
My throat seemed to be strangled tightly by an invisible hand, and I even forgot to scream,
He just stared wide-eyed, looking at everything in front of him in horror, his eyes full of despair and helplessness.
"The soil here was not like this just now..."
The person in charge of supervising the work on the construction site had a trembling voice, as if he was frightened out of his mind by the strange atmosphere.
His face was as pale as paper, and big beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead,
It hit the ground beneath your feet, splashing tiny mud flowers.
His body also unconsciously took a few steps back because of fear,
I wanted to stay away from that terrifying pothole, but my legs felt as heavy as lead.
Every step he took seemed extremely difficult.
"The soil here just now was a little weird. No matter how we dug, we couldn't dig it down.
Moreover, the excavated soil is piled next to it, but that layer of soil will never be reduced or lowered.
But in just a short period of time, it seemed as if it had been soaked in blood,
Has he become so evil? ”
His eyes were full of fear and doubt, and there was a hint of crying in his voice.
Goto Taiji stood aside, his face so gloomy that it could drip water,
His eyes slowly swept across the group of warriors and ninjas standing beside him, and there was a trace of majesty and coldness in his eyes.
"What do you think about this matter?"
His voice echoed in the silent night air, making people feel an invisible pressure.
"There should be a lot of terrifying and strange forces dormant beneath this place."
A tall warrior with a stern face stepped forward, clasped his hands and said respectfully.
There was a hint of solemnity and alertness in his eyes,
I have already felt the evil aura hidden deep underground.
"But this also proves that our survey direction is correct,
What we are looking for lies beneath this land.
But now, our top priority is to solve this weird situation first,
Allow workers to continue construction as normal. ”
"Can these two people be saved?"
Goto Taiji frowned slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly through those exquisite glasses,
He stared closely at the two men standing in the pit who became extremely weird and creepy.
There is no pity or sympathy in the eyes,
There is only a dispassionate, cold look at assessing the value and usability of an item.
"Looking at their appearance, they must be quite embarrassed."
A ninja said softly, already accustomed to this horrific scene: "Because we did not sense any fluctuations in the life of any living person from the two of them,
Only weird power is constantly growing and spreading,
And the strange power in them is gradually becoming more intense,
It has been completely eroded and controlled by that evil power. ”
"Then take action and deal with them."
Goto Taiji's expression was as cold as ice in the cold winter,
There is no reason why my companions have become so weird,
He even felt heartbroken when he was killed by one of his own people.
In his eyes, everything is just a expendable pawn to achieve his goal.
"Just think that they died in the execution of their mission,
At that time, generous pensions will be paid to their families. ”
His tone was cold and decisive, making people feel a deep chill and ruthlessness.
As soon as Goto Taiji finished speaking, several samurai and ninjas immediately jumped into the pit without hesitation.
Those warriors are strong and agile,
They quickly drew out the shining samurai swords in their hands,
The blade shone with an icy cold light in the dim light.
They slashed at the air several times,
Trying to use this method to dispel the fear in my heart and the strange atmosphere that fills the air,
At the same time, we are also preparing for the upcoming battle,
Although their opponents are so mysterious and terrifying, they are unpredictable.
In this pit as deep as an endless abyss,
The darkness surged like thick ink, and the dead atmosphere was like an invisible giant hand,
Tightly grasping everyone's throat.
The ninjas are like ghosts coming from the Nine Nether Hells, their figures are light and erratic,
They jumped back and forth rapidly between the holes,
Every leap is like melting into the embrace of darkness,
The whole figure instantly became like thick black ink, illusory and ethereal, making it difficult to trace its traces,
It was as if they had reached some kind of mysterious contract with the darkness and became part of it.
In an instant, as the black figure flashed and jumped,
Streams of cold light shot out like meteors chasing the moon,
Those are the poisonous darts in the hands of the ninjas,
They carry the breath of death, like a dense storm,
The overwhelming force stabbed into the two former companions with perfect accuracy.
On these darts, there are also some charms that exude a mysterious light.
Immediately afterwards, the hands of the ninjas danced quickly like agile snake shadows,
Complex and mysterious handprints were formed.
As the mudra is formed, a powerful and special energy wave is centered on their hands,
Slowly spreading like ripples, it is awakening some sleeping mysterious power.
At this moment, the darts inserted into the monster exploded violently in an instant,
Only a loud "boom" was heard,
The deafening roar surged back and forth in the pit,
The huge fire burst out instantly like an angry fire beast,
The blazing flames mercilessly swallowed up the two figures that looked like skinned monsters in the pit,
The entire pit was illuminated brightly, but the light did not bring any warmth, only endless fear and despair.
Although just now,
These two skinned monsters are still companions fighting side by side with the white and red Empire people,
But at this critical moment of life and death, no one has extra time to remember or hesitate.
And those warriors are like towering mountain peaks,
Standing steadily amid the raging fire and wind, motionless.
They raised their extremely sharp samurai swords high,
The blade shone with a biting cold light under the firelight, like a sneer on the lips of the God of Death.
When the raging fire and violent wind roared towards them,
They were stopped abruptly by the invisible but rock-hard sword energy around them,
It's like hitting a barrier created by the power of heaven and earth, unable to take a step beyond it,
It can't hurt them at all. This powerful sword energy not only protects their own safety,
It is also like an invisible but solid shield,
Guarding the frightened people standing at the edge of the pothole,
Protect them from the raging fire and wind.
The entire pit shook violently under the powerful impact of the explosion,
Like an old and lonely boat struggling in the stormy waves, it is in danger of being swallowed at any time.
As the violent wind gradually subsided and the explosion flames slowly extinguished,
Everyone was finally able to see clearly the tragic situation in the pothole through the diffuse smoke and dust.
The two skinned monsters obviously suffered an extremely heavy blow,
Their bodies were riddled with holes in the flames and were beyond recognition,
From the wound, black ash and blood-red mucus dripped down like broken beads,
The scene was like a terrifying picture unfolding from the depths of hell,
It exudes a suffocating stench and bloody smell.
They look like evil dolls carefully carved from blood-red candles,
As the fire was completely extinguished,
The already fragile flesh and blood tissue on their bodies cannot withstand the brutal burning of this high temperature.
There are signs of melting,
Drops of pungent-smelling liquid slowly slipped from their bodies,
It was as if their painful tears were telling the endless torture and pain.
"Good defense."
A ninja's eyes flashed with a trace of imperceptible surprise and admiration, and he whispered to himself. Then, without hesitation, he took out a dart from his arms again,
These darts are the same as those used before,
It still had the mysterious charm that could trigger a fatal explosion.
He exerted force on his wrist and was about to throw out the dart in his hand.
When giving those two monsters the final fatal blow,
But suddenly I felt that all my strength was drained away by some mysterious force in an instant,
The whole person just froze in place without any warning, unable to move,
As if a immobilizing spell had been cast on him, his eyes were full of fear and confusion.
Finally, the ninja widened his eyes as sharp and alert as poisonous scorpions,
Looking towards the ground, at this glance,
An unspeakable fear suddenly surged in his heart.
I didn’t know when, but the blood-red soil had quietly spread to his feet,
Swallowing his entire feet ruthlessly,
And it continues to squirm upward at a slow but creepy speed,
It's like a demon hiding in the depths of darkness, choosing people to eat,
It was opening its bloody mouth, dragging him bit by bit into the endless dark abyss.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"No, there's something wrong with this bloody soil, and it's still attacking us!"
At the same time, some warriors were aware of this extremely dangerous situation,
They shouted in terror, their voices filled with despair and helplessness.
In panic, they hurriedly raised their samurai swords and slashed at the ground.
Trying to rely on the sharpness of the blade in my hand,
Directly cut off the connection between the bloody soil and their bodies to get rid of this terrible bondage,
Escape from the brink of death.
However, when the katana easily cuts into the soil,
They were horrified to find that when they tried to pull out the katana,
The entire katana is tightly attached to the blood-red soil,
It's like being held tightly by a pair of invisible hands from hell, no matter how hard they try,
Nothing can shake it,
I can only watch the blood-red soil continue to spread upward along the blade,
Announcing their impending death.
In the eerie pit, the air was frozen with fear and suffocating.
Suddenly, the seemingly dead blood-red soil seemed to be awakened by a demon,
A violent riot broke out without warning.
They are like a surging sea of blood, moving at a speed that makes people unable to blink
In an instant, he mercilessly swallowed up all the samurai and ninjas around him.
It all happened so fast,
It’s so fast that it feels like it’s just a momentary illusion,
But the empty venue in front of them truly announced their disappearance.
Just a moment later, when those figures appeared in everyone's sight again,
They have become exactly the same as the two extremely terrifying companions from before.
The clothes and skin all over their bodies seemed to be torn apart by some evil force,
Only the frightening flesh and blood tissue exposed to the air was left.
The bright blood-red color is particularly dazzling in this dim pothole environment,
It's like blood oozing from the abyss of hell, every inch exudes the smell of death,
Everyone who witnessed it could not help but feel chills in their hearts and shivers down their spines.
Their eyes were quietly eroded by the strange bloody soil at some point,
Disappeared without a trace, leaving only two black holes and bottomless eye sockets,
Blood was constantly oozing out.
The blood slowly slid down their twisted and deformed cheeks,
One drop after another,
There is a faint but clearly audible "tick" sound in the silent pit,
Like a countdown to death, every sound struck everyone's heart, making people's hair stand on end.
"This kind of bloody soil must not be in direct contact, otherwise it will be assimilated unknowingly."
A ninja walked slowly and solemnly to Goto Taiji, his eyes full of vigilance and worry, and reminded him.
There was no hint of joking in his tone, only deep fear of the strange situation in front of him.
"Humph, you don't need to tell me, I can see it too!"
Goto Taiji's face was ashen and extremely ugly.
His eyes were bloodshot, burning with anger and anxiety,
Clenching his teeth, the muscles on his cheeks bulged slightly from exertion,
It was obvious that he was trying his best to suppress the emotions that were about to explode in his heart.
"What should we do next?"
Others did not pay attention to Goto Taiji's bad attitude,
They knew in their hearts that the latter's mood was extremely bad at this moment.
After all, it is only in the preliminary preparation stage of land development,
We encountered such an unimaginably difficult situation,
His capable samurai and ninjas suffered losses one after another,
And faced with this weird and inexplicable situation, they didn't even have a clue to solve the problem.
As the person in charge of this operation, Goto Taiji must bear heavy responsibilities,
This pressure is enough to make anyone collapse.
Goto Taiji was silent for a long time, took a deep breath,
As if he wanted to inhale all the annoyance and helplessness deep into his heart, and then said slowly: "The situation here is far beyond our capabilities.
I will report the truth to my superiors and ask them to send more capable people to deal with it.
You guys just stay here and don’t act rashly for the time being,
Just keep an eye on the movement of the bloody soil in the hole to see if it will spread toward the outside.
Once you find any signs of spreading, you must report it to me as soon as possible. Do you understand? ”
After saying that, Goto Taiji suddenly turned around and left in a hurry,
At the same time, he took out his mobile phone from his pocket at an extremely fast speed,
Slide your finger quickly on the screen and press a series of numbers.
Putting the phone tightly to his ear, he disappeared from everyone's sight in a hurry,
Only a slightly embarrassed figure was left.
"You should leave too."
A warrior glanced coldly at Zheng Qifeng, Xiang Xiufang and others,
His eyes were full of disdain and contempt: "The situation here is not something you mortals can interfere with. Staying here will only get in the way and cause more trouble."
"Then I'll trouble you."
Zheng Qifeng nodded quickly and bowed, his face full of gratitude and joy.
He knew in his heart that this weird and terrifying scene had already exceeded his understanding and ability to deal with it.
It is undoubtedly a blessing among misfortunes to have the opportunity to escape unscathed at this moment.
So,
Under the leadership of Zheng Qifeng,
The group of people hurriedly left this place full of death,
Only the pit filled with blood and fear was left, as well as a few samurai and ninjas who looked nervous, as if facing a powerful enemy.
When Chuhe slowly returned to the iron house just now,
At a glance, he saw that Tamamo Mae had returned safely.
I saw her sitting lazily on a chair, pouring herself a glass of fresh juice slowly and elegantly,
His movements were slow and calm, as if nothing unusual had happened in the outside world,
Everything was still so calm and peaceful.
Tamamo Mae's face was extremely pale, without a trace of blood,
Like a piece of tissue paper that has been drained of its life force, it exudes an aura of weakness.
On her shoulder, a ferocious bloodstain was particularly eye-catching,
The bloodstains looked like someone had used something extremely sharp,
What's left after a sharp chop that cuts through iron like clay.
The blood from the wound had slowly flowed out, staining the clothes on her shoulders blood red and wet.
The dark red blood stains looked particularly eerie under the light.
"Are you injured?"
Chuhe asked.
