Chapter 126: The Oath of Revenge (a 10,000-word chapter, please vote for me)
Under the vast skyline, a team of dozens of people carried huge luggage on their journey across the snow-capped mountains.
Snow and goose feathers were flying all around, like a white veil stretched between heaven and earth, dressing the world in silver.
The cold wind mixed with the biting chill merged in the air, tearing out a shrill roar like the roar of an angry dragon.
The heavy snow almost obscured the sight. The few people walking at the front of the team took out their pointing disks from time to time to judge the direction of travel, and then continued on their way.
After walking for three consecutive days, the first batch of students from the Snow Valley Training Camp still had not left the snowy mountain area.
At this moment, the leader Guitong found a cave not far away, turned around and shouted to the rear.
"There is a cave ahead, let's go in and take a rest."
"Just in time to have something to eat." Li Zheng on the side also nodded in agreement at this time.
Then the group of people followed Ghost Tong towards the cave.
The cave is located at the bottom of a steep cliff, half-covered and half-exposed by the white snow that never melts all year round. There are icicles hanging above the cave entrance for decoration.
Because the cave is located at a wind outlet, when the cold wind passes by, the ice walls will emit a low and long echo.
Entering the cave, the students from the first training camp were not in a hurry to rest, but carefully went deep into the cave to make sure there were no monsters living inside before putting down their bags.
"Make a fire."
With that said, Guitong took out three burning rods from his bag, placed them on the ground, raised his hand to condense the elemental flames and ignited them.
Seeing this, the other students also took out burning sticks and lit multiple flames in the cave.
A group of people sat down around the fire.
At this time, Guitong took out another shield crystal from his bag, threw it towards the hole, and triggered it with his consciousness.
Immediately, the shield crystal shattered and turned into an icy blue light shield that rapidly expanded until it was completely connected with the rock wall at the entrance of the cave, resisting the cold wind that continuously poured into the cave.
"Eat something first to replenish your strength. Later, we will divide into two groups to rest, each sleeping for 3 hours and taking turns to be on guard." Guitong said in a deep voice at this time, and looked at Li Zheng as he said:
"After dinner, your family, the Nighthawk clan, and the Brass clan will go to bed first. The other students and our Four Eyes clan will be on guard."
"No problem." Li Zheng immediately expressed his support for Guitong's decision.
Looking up at the icicles and ice flowers of different shapes on the cave wall, Li Zheng and the Gandi players took out the compressed energy paste from their bags, bit open the package with their teeth, and took a big bite.
The taste of the energy cream is not as bad as expected. The first thing you will feel when you enter is a fresh and slightly herbal scent. This is the taste of a variety of selected spiritual plant essences mixed together. After swallowing, you will feel a rush from your stomach. A peculiar fragrance, like walking in the forest in the early morning, your breath is full of natural gifts.
As the energy ointment quickly melts in the stomach, a spicy feeling quietly arises. It is the smell of "ginger spirit", a special spiritual material similar to spices. Its appearance seems to ignite a small fire in the body. , quickly dissipates fatigue and chill, and brings warmth from the inside out.
Immediately afterwards, a touch of sweetness is quietly revealed as the outer layer melts away, like a breeze in summer, caressing the spiritual consciousness. It not only balances the spiciness of the top notes, but also adds a bit of softness to the overall flavor.
Finally, a subtle hint of woody or floral aroma slowly emerges.
It looks like an ordinary energy ointment. In addition to quickly replenishing the body's consumption, it also has the effect of soothing the mind and repairing injuries.
It is one of the most important foods for the warriors of the Counter Tide Legion on the battlefield.
Instructor Kuangsha once said that making a stick of energy paste requires many processes and requires the consumption of more than 30 kinds of spiritual plants.
Li Zheng had no doubt about this.
After asking for guidance, I learned that a stick of energy ointment can be exchanged for 83 points of sacrificial power after being sacrificed.
This shows that the Against the Tide Legion attaches great importance to soldiers.
Without thinking about this problem in detail, after swallowing a whole tube of energy paste, Li Zheng spoke on the voice channel:
"Go to sleep, we will be on duty later."
"Good night." After saying good night to each other, the players of the Gandi Group leaned against the rock wall and closed their eyes.
I had been traveling for many days without taking a good rest. The moment I closed my eyes, sleep came over me like a tide, and I quickly fell into a deep sleep.
On the other side, although Gui Tong and others were so sleepy that their eyelids were clenched, they still managed to stay awake and alert to possible dangers.
In addition to the starting point of the Snow Valley training camp before departure, there is a world of monsters outside.
Although this journey has been traveled by countless students, it is still full of various crises and risks.
Every year on the journey from the first stage to the second stage, there will be many deaths.
In Guitong's eyes, even if the probability of encountering danger in the snowy mountains is very small, as long as there is a probability, one must be prepared to deal with it.
Rubbing his hands, Ghost Tong turned his head and glanced at the sleeping Wan family members, then took out another stick of energy ointment from his bag, took a big bite and held it in his mouth, letting the effect of the medicine spread in his mouth until it reached the level of The spicy feeling after the melted layers hit me, and my spirit was lifted.
Time passes.
Three hours later, the Wan family and others were awakened and took charge of vigilance. The Sitong family and other students who were about to be unable to stand up decisively closed their eyes and started to rest after they woke up.
After alternating this process twice, all the students in the training camp recovered their mental state.
Before leaving, Guitong took out a map from his luggage and spread it flat on the ground.
Then place the pointing wheel in the upper right corner of the map to estimate the remaining distance.
During this period, Li Zheng and others also came over out of curiosity.
Through the map, you can intuitively see that the location of the first training camp is in the lower left corner of the map. From this point, follow a black line to the upper right corner and crawl through three areas.
They are the continuous snow-capped mountains at the foot, the white plain in the center, and the final forest area.
There are no clear path markers in these areas, and only a rough outline of the terrain is depicted on the map. Everything needs to be explored by themselves.
Before embarking on the journey, the instructor focused on the white plain in the central area, saying that this is the area with the highest risk factor among the three areas. Every year, students encounter dangers and even die here.
This area was once the territory of the descending forces, the Soul Return Clan. After they snatched this territory from the terrifying Black Tide, they established a base node here for the Soul Return Clan.
During this period, the Hungui tribe made a series of adaptive changes to this territory.
A large number of "soul-sculpting seeds" were buried deep in the earth, completely changing the environment into an area suitable for the activities of soul-returning warriors.
What followed was the counter-tide army taking back this territory from the Hungui tribe.
However, after the Against the Tide Legion retook this territory, due to tight front lines, the restoration and transformation of this territory was not completed.
Deep in the earth that leads to the white plain are many soul-sculpting seeds left by the soul-returning clan, which will breed powerful soul beasts from time to time.
(PS: This race was mentioned in Chapter 90.)
The Soul Return Clan is also one of the most powerful hostile forces of the Against the Tide Legion at this stage.
According to the description of Kuangsha, the chief instructor of the training camp, the Hungui Clan is a powerful group that controls the power of the rules of the world.
They are shaped like dark red demons, with huge bodies, and every inch of their skin is imprinted with dark red spiritual patterns. They are like solidified blood burning quietly in the darkness, and their whole bodies are filled with evil aura.
Before each war begins, the Soul Returners will sow a large number of Soul Sculpture seeds over the battlefield.
During the course of the war, all creatures killed by the Soul Return Clan will have their souls devoured by the soul beasts created from the Soul Shaping Seeds, and will eventually be reborn in the soul beast's body and become a member of the Soul Return Clan.
The most terrifying thing is that the warriors who have been reshaped by life can still retain their memories of their lives.
But this kind of memory is more like a movie implanted in the mind. The new warriors who have returned to their clan will not remember the family affection, friendship, and other feelings during their lifetime because of the pictures in their memories. From the moment of birth, They believe that they are warriors of the Soul Return Clan, and they should fight for the rise of the Soul Return Clan.
Relying on the powerful soul shaping rules, the Soul Return Clan can collect a large amount of intelligence and knowledge from other races.
Ordinary races have no power to resist when faced with the return of souls.
Often when a small-scale race war ends, the entire ethnic group will become enslaved new soul warriors.
When the Soul Return Clan first arrived, a large number of nearby ethnic groups were transformed and reborn by the Soul Return Clan. Even the Black Tide in nearby nodes was captured by the Soul Return Clan and became a new force in the Pale Continent.
The Soul Return Clan, who wanted to expand their territory, met the Against the Tide Legion without any suspense.
The protracted and brutal war began.
Although the Soul Return Clan could reshape the life structure of the killed warriors, it was unable to reshape the war seals in the bodies of the warriors of the Against the Tide Legion. They were defeated by the Against the Tide Legion several times in successive years of war, and finally took the initiative to retreat from the front and give way to A large territory.
But this does not mean that the Hungui Clan has completely given up.
According to Kuangsha’s description, the support forces from the Soul Return Clan are still pouring into the monster world.
As long as he accumulates enough strength, he will once again launch a peak battle against the Counter Tide Legion, hoping to succeed the Counter Tide Legion and become the pinnacle force of the Pale Continent.
This is a force with infinite growth potential. In theory, as long as it is an irregular life form, it will be reborn and used even after death.
Every time a strong enemy is killed, the soul will give birth to a strong person.
During the battle with the Soul Return Clan, countless counter-tide warriors who died in the battle turned against their former comrades as Soul Return Clan warriors.
When telling this past event, Kuangsha, who was always calm, couldn't help showing sadness in his eyes.
"We will be able to leave the snow-capped mountains in about two days. We will find a place to have a good rest before entering the white plains. We must remain highly vigilant at all times during the journey ahead."
"Tongzi, do you know the strength of the soul beast?" The student from the Brass Tribe asked at this time.
"I don't know, but since it is a training camp promotion course, the intensity should not be very high. Even if we encounter it, we can kill it as long as we work together."
After a brief exchange, the students from the Snow Valley training camp put their bags back on and walked out of the cave.
It was still snowing heavily outside, and the cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit my face, blocking my vision.
Following the direction provided by the pointing wheel, the students continued to move in the direction of the second training camp.
……
Two days later.
Passing through the stream at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, Li Zheng and others saw a vast plain.
It is covered with white flowers.
When the wind blows, the petals dance with the wind and scatter in the air.
Li Zheng and others did not choose to continue moving forward. They lit a bonfire by the stream and sat down to rest.
For the next part of the journey, they needed to pass as quickly as possible to reduce their stay time and prevent being attacked by spirit beasts.
Although Guitong analyzed and judged that the spirit beasts left on this land would not have very high combat power.
But this is just a judgment, and there is still a possibility that something unexpected may happen.
"Tongzi, if this thing is so precious, your tribe will let you wear it when you go out?"
While eating the energy ointment, Li Zheng glanced at the necklace around Guitong's neck and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"No matter how precious it is, it is equipment. In the eyes of our clan, it is just a tool to increase combat power. Does it have to be donated just because it is precious?" Guitong took a bite of the energy paste and looked at Li Zheng with a speechless expression.
"Listening to your tribe's description, isn't this the status symbol of the next tribe leader?"
"Yes, it is indeed the symbol of the next clan leader, but if it is lost or damaged in battle, will our Four Eyes clan not have the next clan leader? Obviously there will still be new symbolic tokens."
"Hahaha, nothing wrong."
"I advise you not to think about it. I find that every time you take a break, you have to look at it a few times and tell you clearly that this thing cannot be given to you."
"Fart, I just appreciate it, I don't have any other thoughts about the necklace."
Hearing this, a look of disdain appeared on Guitong's face:
"Based on what I know about you and what you said on the way, how can I not know what you are thinking?"
"Then tell me, what am I thinking about?" Li Zheng raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
"What else could it be? Of course it's just that we were attacked by unknown monsters and got into a fierce battle on the way. During this period, I was accidentally seriously injured during the battle and could not be treated. Finally, I handed the necklace to you with trembling hands, telling you to take my share of glory with you. , you must persist until the second training camp... What kind of virtues can I not understand about your boy?”
After listening to Guitong's analysis, Li Zheng and other students burst out laughing.
"Tongzi, I give you full marks for this analysis. I can tell you clearly that I have really thought about it this way." Li Zheng couldn't help laughing and admitted his thoughts with a smile.
"Shameless, I know you have dirty things in your mind." Hearing Li Zheng admit it, Guitong glared at him fiercely:
"By the way, how do your family know that the necklace around my neck is very precious?"
Facing the inquiry, Chi Tutu on the side said with a proud expression:
"One of the racial talents of our family is that we can detect treasures through perception and discover the value of items. Your necklace is so valuable in my eyes. I have never seen such a precious thing before."
"Hey, there are such racial talents. I thought your family's racial talents were just to survive hunger and stay up late."
When Guitong heard this, an exaggerated expression of surprise appeared on his face, causing all the students to laugh again.
After chatting and joking, Guitong's expression became solemn:
"Brothers, we are about to enter the White Plains area in a moment. We must remain highly vigilant throughout the process and give a prompt warning if any situation occurs."
"Understood, take a rest quickly and set off at dawn." Li Zheng nodded in agreement.
Still following the previously formulated shift rest plan, the students at the Snow Valley training camp took breaks and alerts in turn.
7 hours later.
The sky bloomed with soft light, the night was lifted by invisible power, and a touch of orange quietly penetrated into the sleeping earth.
After the trainees of the Snow Valley training camp regrouped, they entered the white plain where white petals were flying.
The scenery along the way is charming, but the students are highly nervous and are prepared for a sudden attack that may occur at any time.
Half an hour later, an exclamation came from the middle of the team:
"There's something underground!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and the nearby students also decisively dispersed.
I saw a lump of earth bulging from the ground, and then a giant black insect tore open the lump of earth to reveal its body.
This black giant insect is exposed on the ground, and the winding part is several meters long. The body is covered with a rough skin, the color is between dark gray and dark brown, and the green eyes flash fiercely.
Both sides of the head are wrapped by thick carapace. The most conspicuous thing is the mouthparts at the front of the head, which are covered with sharp and tiny teeth. They are closely arranged, like precision mechanical devices, constantly rotating and changing positions, flashing coldly in the sun. The cold light is like the scythe of death, ready to harvest life at any time.
The moment the giant insect revealed its figure, it pounced on the nearest murderous creature.
"Back off!"
At this moment, the warrior of the Brass Tribe took two steps forward, and an earthy-yellow stream of light burst out from his body. He punched the giant insect's open mouthparts with a punch, resisting the pressure of the giant insect and knocking it backwards. Then he took a step forward and hugged the giant insect, and the yellow light on its surface became brighter.
ha!
With a loud roar, the Brass Warrior used brute force to pull up the giant insect from the ground.
The other freshmen followed up at this time and launched a siege.
First, the bright blue light released by the warriors of the Four Eyes tribe was like an ice arrow. After hitting the giant insect, it turned into spreading ice crystals, covering its body with a thin layer of frost. Then came a huge handful condensed by the ghost pupils. The ice sword suddenly slashed at the giant insect's neck, tearing a gap in the flesh and blood. The biting cold quickly penetrated from the wound into the giant insect's body, making its movements sluggish.
Then came the members of the Nighthawk clan. They raised their hands at the same time to control the gathering of wind element energy floating between the sky and the earth.
The strong wind suddenly rose, rolling up countless white petals, surrounding the giant insect and forming a series of wind blades, like sharp blades, quickly cutting the giant insect's body, leaving fine scars on its body surface.
The warriors led by the Brass clan took a step forward again and roared:
"Cave a way for me."
After hearing this, the other students stopped one after another. They saw the Brass Tribe warrior's right hand suddenly swelled in a circle, with veins popping out on it, and he punched the giant insect's body with a punch.
Suddenly violent power erupted from the giant insect's body, and the dense wounds on its body instantly tore the giant insect into pieces, scattering pieces of flesh and falling into the sky.
After a brief fight, the students from the Snow Valley Training Camp easily killed the giant insect with a crushing attitude.
The Gandi players who saw this scene looked a little surprised.
They all know that the freshmen who can enter the training camp are the best of the new generation in the clan.
In the Snow Valley training camp before, everyone wore restriction bracelets, and there was no obvious gap in strength.
But in the first battle after taking off the bracelets, the performance of these animals was truly amazing.
Especially the freshman from the Brass Tribe, who usually received the most beatings, showed extremely bravery. He used his fists to force the bite of the giant insect's mouthparts. Not only was he not injured, but he easily pushed the giant insect back several meters away.
"It scared me. I thought it was a soul beast that returned to its clan and emerged from the ground." After the battle, Guitong breathed a long sigh of relief, and then continued:
"We bring the scattered pieces of meat from the giant insects. The food in our luggage is not enough to support our consumption on the road. These pieces of meat can help us survive the food shortage."
After hearing this, all the students took action and put the giant insect minced meat on the ground into bags for later consumption.
After a brief interlude, the group continued on their way.
……
Three days later.
A group of students from the Snow Valley training camp passed through an area full of white flowers and entered the central area of the plain.
The scenery here has changed.
As far as the eye can see, there are fractures on the ground. The exposed soil seems to have been licked by fire, showing a dry and pale color, without any sign of moisture or fertility. The wind here is no longer a gentle caress, but a change. It became a sharp blade, rolling up waves of fine sand and dust, hovering in the open space like a ghost, whimpering and roaring.
Although the sky is still vast, it looks particularly pale due to the lack of green background. The sunlight shines directly down without any obstruction, making this desolate land even more dazzling and desolate. Crossing a dry river bed, the cracks in front of us were like wounds on the earth.
The traces left by the war between the Against the Tide Legion and the Soul Return Clan are like shadows that will never fade away, deeply engraved in the texture of the earth.
Broken weapons, broken armor, charred bones, broken flags... This place is very similar to the ancient battlefield area of the Imperial Tomb Mountains, but it seems even more desolate.
Along the way, Li Zheng and others could feel that the expressions of the foreign students looked a little sad.
Li Zheng can completely understand this.
Apparently their ancestors were also involved in this war.
This is an emotion they cannot relate to.
"Everyone, be careful. There are still a lot of unprocessed soul sculpture seeds underground here, and soul beasts are likely to be bred in them." The leader Guitong warned at this time.
After hearing Guitong's reminder, Chitu, who was walking in the center of the team, opened the eagle-headed demon's perception perspective.
As the range of perception expanded, nearby scenes came into his mind, and even the subtle changes in the sand and gravel blown by the wind became clearly visible.
After continuing for a while, a dark red energy ball suddenly appeared in Chitu's perception perspective, rising rapidly from the ground.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Everyone, be careful, something is coming out there!" Chitu pointed to the ground not far away and exclaimed.
Upon hearing the reminder, all the students turned around and looked in the direction of the dirt-eating finger.
I saw cracks suddenly appearing on the ground in the distance, spreading outward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
roar!
Accompanied by a low roar, a dark red figure tore through the ground and appeared.
What appeared in front of Li Zheng and others was a kind of spiritual monster between the invisible and the tangible. It was neither completely illusory nor completely solid. Its body seemed to be wandering between reality and fantasy, constantly switching back and forth.
The analytical ability is opened:
【Soul Beast】：
Hunting Level: 42
Target introduction: The special life bred in the "Soul Shaping Seed" created by the members of the Soul Return Clan using the rules has the ability to devour the soul and evolve. It can be transformed into the devoured target through the secondary reshaping of life, and obtain the opponent's racial talent, combat Techniques, life memories, etc.
……
The soul beast that appeared tearing apart the earth seemed to be condensed from the dark green clouds. Sometimes these clouds condensed into sharp blades, sometimes they turned into twisting and rotating chains, and sometimes they condensed into humanoid monsters wearing dark green armor.
There are also circles of invisible energy fluctuations surrounding the soul beast, which can disturb the surrounding air, causing the temperature to drop sharply and the chill to the bone. This fluctuation also carries an indescribable noise, like countless imprisoned souls wailing hysterically. .
Seeing the soul beast attacking, the expressions of all the students instantly became nervous.
Before setting off, they had all heard Kuang Sha tell about the horror of soul beasts. This special life would devour anyone present if it killed them, turning them into the appearance of the deceased, mastering all the abilities of the deceased, and being extremely difficult to kill.
"Get ready to fight!" Ghost Tong shouted at this moment, and the elemental eyes on his face burst out with bright light.
Four groups of elemental energy condensed in front of him at the same time.
Li Zheng and other players in the Gandi group also entered fighting postures. The family-sharing adoptive father in the team took the initiative to come to the front of the team, ready to turn on the petrified form to bear injuries.
"No, there are other soul beasts!"
At this time, Chi Tu exclaimed and reminded again.
As the words fell, the ground in front continued to crack, and masses of dark red energy tore through the ground and emerged.
Scanning his eyes, there were five soul beasts in total including the one in front.
Three of the spirit beasts were suspended in the air and twisted quickly, then transformed into alien appearances and landed on the ground. One of the figures was in the shape of the Brass tribe.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the students suddenly changed.
These three figures were obviously students who had been killed by the soul beasts, and now the soul beasts had inherited their memories and abilities.
"Kill!"
The brass warrior took the lead and pounced directly on the soul beast in front.
Bang!
The soul beast with the image of the Brass Tribe also took action at this time, and its right hand lit up with an earthy yellow light at the same time.
They had exactly the same ability when punching each other, but the strength of the soul beast was obviously a bit stronger. It knocked the Brass Clan student backwards with one punch, and his body slid back several meters, and he staggered for a few steps before he regained his balance.
The war is about to break out.
During the battle, the evil auras constantly emitted from the five soul beasts, making people shudder.
The two soul beasts that have not devoured their souls fight in the form of chains and blades, while the soul beast that has devoured their souls fights with the ability of the devoured person.
The weakest spirit beast among them has a hunting level of 39.
During the fight, what troubled the Snow Valley students the most was the incorporeal body of the soul beast. When switching to the incorporeal body, it ignored any physical damage.
The Brass Tribe warrior standing at the front was quickly covered with cuts and bruises under the ferocious attack of the soul beasts, and turned into a bloody man.
Seeing this scene, the adoptive father of family sharing immediately stood up and asked other students to drag him to the back, and took out pills from his bag for emergency treatment.
With petrification turned on, he faced the output and turned on the taunting ability.
The family-shared adoptive father, whose body was coated with a pitch-black substance, was directly injured by the attacks of five soul beasts. This scene immediately shocked the other students.
"You kid, you actually have such abilities!" He couldn't help but exclaimed while using the Ghost Eye Condensation Technique.
"Tongzi, don't talk. I can't hold on for long. Kill these five soul beasts quickly!" The family-sharing adoptive father maintained his standing posture and gritted his teeth while enduring the pain.
The performance of the foster father shared by the family has greatly reduced the pressure on the rear.
But the sound of eating dirt came again:
"Three more soul beasts are approaching!"
"Fuck, stop fighting and run!" Li Zheng suggested decisively.
"Run!" Guitong did not hesitate, knowing that if he continued to fight, he would only fall into a situation of being surrounded, and it would be difficult to evacuate then.
"I'll open the way, you follow closely." A warrior from the Brass Tribe shouted loudly, and his body was instantly coated with a layer of earthy-yellow light. After his body suddenly expanded in a circle, he crashed straight into the five soul beasts.
The other students saw this and followed suit.
The Chitu in the team kept throwing "restraints" in an attempt to restrict the movement of the soul beast.
However, the restraint with a life soul level of only 15 cannot effectively restrict the movement of the soul beast.
During the retreat, the team continued to replace the remaining students under the command of Gui Tong.
The other three soul beasts also attacked at this time, and the pressure of resistance increased sharply.
Soul beasts with powerful self-healing abilities cannot be killed no matter what means they use.
One of the soul beasts has an extremely terrifying ability. It can spit out a powerful poisonous mist. The target it comes into contact with will enter a poisoned state that will continue to lose blood during the analysis of the information.
When the Four-Eye Clan was switched to the rear again, a soul beast suddenly turned into a chain and stabbed a new member of the Four-Eye Clan who was condensing spells at an extremely fast speed.
Seeing this scene, the Brass warriors stood up decisively to resist.
But the soul chain twisted at a strange angle in the air and brushed against the shoulder of the Brass Tribe warrior, instantly piercing the Four-Eyed Tribe freshman.
"Brother!"
Amidst the roar of Ghost Eyes, the soul chain wrapped around the body of the Four Eyes warrior. An expression of pain appeared on his face, and his body shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Countless faint fluorescent spots can be seen emerging from the body surface of the Four Eyes students and being absorbed by the soul chain.
Click!
The soul chain was withdrawn, and the soul beast's body twisted and changed rapidly. In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a new member of the Four-Eye Clan and fell to the ground. Then a strange smile appeared on his face and he looked at Ghost Eyes:
"Brother, are you calling me?"
"Kill!" The clan brother was killed by the soul-devouring soul. The ghost pupils had a ferocious expression and took the initiative to pounce on the soul beast.
"Tongzi, calm down!" Upon seeing this, Li Zheng grabbed Guitong to prevent him from impulsively falling into a situation where he was besieged by the spirit beasts.
Looking at the soul beast that had transformed into a new member of the Four-Eye Clan, Li Zheng's eyes were cold and his heart was filled with rage, but he also knew that he must not be impulsive at this time and must evacuate the area as soon as possible.
The soul beast is affected by the soul-shaping seeds, and without its soul, its range of control activities is limited.
As long as they escape the area, they will be safe.
But the current situation is that the attack of the eight soul beasts is really difficult for them to resist.
According to the current retreat speed, there will inevitably continue to be casualties among them.
This is the first time Li Zheng has felt fear in a game.
What he was afraid of was not his own death, but that the alien brothers around him who had feelings would die here.
Then an idea came to his mind.
But before he could speak on the voice channel, he heard the adoptive father of family sharing say:
"Brother Li, retreating like this is not an option. Some brothers will inevitably be killed. Why don't we help them out? I don't want them to die like this!"
"That's what I meant. As expected, we are good brothers. We all have the same ideas." Chitu also spoke out in support at this time.
After hearing the brothers' suggestions on the voice channel, Li Zheng's idea became more determined. At this time, he turned around and grabbed the crazy-looking Guitong by the collar and slapped him hard:
"Wake up, Tongzi, take your brothers and retreat, and we'll play a game of family annihilation!"
"You..." After hearing these words, the hatred in Guitong's eyes dissipated, looking a little unbelievable.
"If this continues, everyone will die. Instead of dying together, it's better to sacrifice us and help you. Don't be impulsive. Remember what you said when you set out. Run as fast as you can." After saying that, Li Zheng didn't wait for Guitong to reply. , leading the brothers of the Gan Emperor Group towards the soul beast.
The foster father who rushed to the front turned on petrification again and withstood the simultaneous attacks of eight spirit beasts.
"Run quickly, don't let me die in vain." After scolding the adoptive father of family sharing, his health bar was depleted under the attack of the soul beast, and it turned into a black mist and dissipated.
At this time, he was moved to take over the role of the adoptive father who shared the family, and turned on the petrification and ridicule characteristics.
"Run!"
Seeing that Guitong and others were still casting spells and output, Li Zheng suddenly became angry.
I wanted to end the hidden mission early and fulfill them, but I didn't expect that these evil pens would not retreat.
Their sacrifice was not in vain.
Ghost Tong's four eyes shook violently, and then he gritted his teeth:
"Everyone follow me!"
Facing the members of the Wan family who risked their lives and actively threw themselves into the surroundings of soul beasts, the new students from all races were shocked, but they also knew the purpose of the Wan family's actions.
If you don't leave at this time, the Wan family's efforts will be in vain.
During this period, some students could not help but shed tears.
Looking at the backs of the alien students who were leaving quickly, Li Zheng took out a bottle of intermediate potion from his space bag and poured it into his mouth:
"Brothers, kill one before you die. Just stare at the soul beast that has turned into a four-eyed clan and fuck him!"
"Okay!" The players of the Gandi Group echoed.
……
Five minutes later, Li Zheng defeated the new spirit beast that had transformed into the Four Eyes clan with one punch.
“It’s cool!”
The kill prompt sounded in his mind, and he turned to look to his side.
Except for him who has struggled to hold on until now at the level of 7, only the gameplay type Chi Tu is still alive. The other brothers of the Gan Emperor Group have all returned to Emperor Zhong Village.
"Damn, the hidden mission is over. I don't know when Elder You's next recruitment will come." Chitu cursed at this time, and then took the initiative to pounce on Li Zheng, preventing him from having his soul chain penetrate his chest.
"Brother Li, I'll take the first step and wait for you in the small dark room."
"Okay, before you leave, let me punch the spirit beast a few more times. I'll come back later." Li Zheng, who had turned into a bloody man, responded immediately, panting heavily and pounced on the spirit beast with the ability to spit poison.
At this moment, the earth-eating figure turned into black mist and disappeared.
Li Zheng also took a step forward at this moment, and hit the chin of the soul beast that had transformed into a foreign race with a straight punch.
At this moment, the soul beast spat out a mouthful of poisonous mist at him, immediately intensifying his already poisoned state and speeding up his blood draw.
At this time, the spirit beast that transformed into a Brass clan warrior next to him punched him in the back. Li Zheng opened his mouth and coughed up blood, fell to the ground and rolled several meters away.
Looking at the soul beasts surrounding him, Li Zheng took out the "Disillusionment" rune bomb stored in his space bag.
"Everyone, I won't give it away."
Just when Li was about to detonate the disillusionment bomb, a figure suddenly came to him, picked him up and led him towards the distance at an extremely fast speed.
"Ahem...Tongzi!"
Turning his head to look, Li Zheng saw four ghost eyes with blood radiating out at the same time, carrying him and running wildly.
Ghost Tong did not speak, his running speed suddenly increased, and his body surface was covered with four-color shimmering light.
Through analysis, it was found that Guitong had entered a state of burning energy and blood, and was running at the maximum limit of his life.
"Ahem...Tongzi, put me down." As he spoke, Li Zheng opened his mouth and coughed out green blood. The poisonous mist spewed by the soul beast made him enter a state of continuous blood loss.
Guitong said nothing, gritted his teeth and continued running, dragging four streams of light behind him.
Ten minutes later.
Guitong, who ran out of the attack range of the soul beast, stopped and placed Li Zheng on a tree that had turned into charcoal. He then took out the pills he was carrying and stuffed them into his mouth.
But Li Zheng did not swallow.
Gan Diqun's brothers are all dead. How can he survive alone? His brothers are still waiting for him to return.
The second training camp without good brothers is meaningless.
He decisively put the pills in his mouth into his space bag.
"We must live."
Looking at the ghost pupils with red eyes, Li Zheng shook his head weakly:
"Tongzi, I'm afraid I'm going to die."
Li Zheng, who was ready to face death while being poisoned, looked at Guitong's neck and was surprised to find that the necklace around his neck had disappeared.
Apparently when Guitong came to save him, he was already ready to sacrifice and handed the necklace to the tribe.
While feeling moved in his heart, Li Zheng grinned and said:
"Tongzi, I didn't promise to run faster than anyone else, I definitely won't... cough cough." As he spoke, the toxins in his body surged up, and Li Zheng opened his mouth and coughed out a ball of poisonous blood. With his body covered with scars, he looked good. miserable.
"Stop talking, take a deep breath and wait for the medicine to take effect."
"Tongzi... where is your necklace."
"I told you to stop talking." Finding that Li Zheng's condition continued to deteriorate, Guitong stretched out his hand and pressed on Li Zheng's chest, trying to dispel the toxin energy from Li Zheng's body.
"Ahem, Tongzi, I really didn't expect that you would give the necklace to the tribe and then risk your life to save me."
"You are almost dead, and you are still thinking about my necklace." Guitong said with a sad expression.
Li Zheng, who was about to speak, opened his mouth and coughed out a ball of poisonous blood, and then said with a sluggish expression:
"Ahem... Hitomi, I really like your necklace... Do you think that if... if we can meet again one day, will you give the necklace to me?"
Looking at Li Zheng whose pupils were gradually dilated, Guitong felt sad in his heart and his body could not stop shaking:
"Here, I will definitely give it to you."
"It's a deal." Li Zheng suddenly became energetic as if he was having a flashback, but this state only lasted for a few seconds before he became sluggish again.
Under the sad gaze of Guitong, Li Zheng, with a wisp of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, coughed violently again, then smiled with a relieved expression and said:
"Tongzi... remember what you said. You said... ahem... the warriors of the Four-Tong clan will do what they say and will never go back on their words."
"You are about to die, and you are still in the mood to say this..." Guitong, who was about to speak angrily, saw Li Zheng's body beginning to disintegrate into mist, but he still looked at him with a smile.
The black smoke dissipated from between the fingers, and Guitong reached out to grab it, but could not grasp Li Zheng's rapidly dying fire of life.
This feeling of wanting to save her but being unable to do so made Guitong almost suffocated.
In the end, Li Zheng's body completely collapsed in his hands, turning into black mist and dissipating into the sky and earth.
At this moment, Guitong's heart was filled with despair and sadness, and what came to his mind was the expression that Li Zheng looked at him with a smile before he died.
This image was fixed in his mind and imprinted deep in Guitong's memory.
Guitong trembled and knelt down on the ground, looking at the place where Li Zheng had just been leaning, tears streaming down his face. Then he punched the scorched tree in front of him, gritted his teeth and said:
"Moving bricks... I, Guitong, swear here that I will return on the day I complete my studies and avenge you!"
