"what is that?"
When Xie Zhe saw the tsunami-like army with his own eyes, he realized that Guixiangu had spoken too late.
It's terrible - that should be everyone's first reaction when they see them. Behind them is the town where the ghost fairy came to meet them. Perhaps there is still some distance between them, and the outline of the town can barely be seen. The terrain here is relatively high, and the team is moving towards higher ground. They are so unstoppable that anything that dares to stand in their way will be crushed into dust by their iron hooves.
"Why, boy, does he need an army?"
Han Chang looked forward. His eyes are sharp and he can see a small figure. He was too small, and the team behind him could swallow him up at any time, but the army used him as a boundary and matched his pace. That is Maple.
"Did you see that he still had blood on his hands to seal his throat?"
"I can't see clearly... there seems to be a touch of red."
"I think the establishment of this army was not his original intention."
Han Chang looked back at Xie Zhe and asked why.
"Look at those soldiers, regardless of nationality or costume, they all seem to be united at this moment. They have no goal, they are just following the footsteps of this child. I think they are just following the thing that creates the most desire to kill."
"How did Ghost Fairy set up a barrier to hide them in this area...?"
"She should not be the only one. Didn't you say that Shuiwujun and Jiyuejun are also there? No wonder I haven't heard from them recently. In places where we can't see, they are also working hard with the soldiers... The people are peaceful They sacrificed their lives for their lives."
"And not everyone is immortal like the Six Paths of Impermanence."
Xie Zhe was silent for a while. Regarding the existence of the six realms of impermanence, there really is no comparison at this moment. He took a deep breath and looked at the slow-moving team, creating large clouds of smoke and dust behind them, which looked spectacular enough. He and Han Chang also knew that along the way, there might be many people who mistakenly entered the barrier and became one of them, and there should be many victims who died under the sword. There are also many dead among such an army. This is the most terrifying thing about them.
"But this team will," Xie Zhe finally answered, "If we don't deal with them...wherever they go, not a blade of grass will grow. What controls their progress is the biological instinct to kill. On the battlefield, Feng The sharp blade may have absorbed too much murderous intent. As a last resort, even his life... we can't be merciful."
"It's really kind of you to think about protecting him until now." Han Sheng didn't know if he was teasing, "But the ugly ghost fairy has already told us in advance: we must not be his opponent. All we can do is It's to delay time...probably. But she couldn't explain it clearly to us. We don't even know who can eradicate them and stop the evil angels."
"But we can't let them hit the towns and villages, right?"
Han Chang pulled out the sword, and tiny sparks appeared on the edges of the sword and scabbard.
"That's right. Regardless of whether we will get information from our old friends, we still have to do what we have to do."
"Hahaha, you are such a good person..."
Han Chang smiled with a sense of sadness, and Xie Ze was speechless. Perhaps this was a bit generous, and he felt a little sorry for it. However, Han Chang's fighting spirit has not yet been wiped out, and he knows very well that he must not hesitate.
"I never thought that one day I would have to deal with such thousands of troops by myself."
Xie Zhe also took Fengyun Zhan out of its scabbard. At that moment, the originally pale sky suddenly became turbulent, and dark cloud shadows changed unpredictably on the earth. It seemed to declare some kind of will, some kind of determination, which even Xie Zhe had not expected.
They accidentally untied Mutsuki-kun's barrier and released this wandering evil spirit into the human world. Now, facing him with swords is a fate destined to happen, or should I say... cause and effect.
Han Chang asked: "Is there a strategy?"
"Perhaps, you can restrain the child and make him incapacitated." Xie Zhe thought, "I set up a spell to restrain the army. I can't harm them. Some of them are still alive."
"That's why I praise you as a good person."
After saying this, Han Chang rushed forward directly. His figure is as agile as a real fox. It seemed that he was planning to confront the evil envoy of killing. Xie Zhe should have gone around from the side, but after a moment's consideration, he realized that his move would be later than Han Chang's. This is not good. His duty is clearly to stop the army for him, so he should be faster. But Han Chang really didn't give him a chance, so there was nothing he could do. This guy is too impatient... He desperately wants to know the whereabouts of his sister, but he can't tell him directly in front of Xie Zhe. The reason is simple. There is more than one friend worth caring about: Yingying. But in Han Chang's heart, there is some partiality.
It doesn't matter, Xie Zhe certainly won't blame him. He followed Han Chang's footsteps and followed closely behind. It didn't take long before they appeared in Feng's field of vision. Han Chang's figure blocked Xie Zhe, and he was the first to make eye contact with Feng. At that moment, Han Sheng actually felt a little surprised: Is this really the helpless child at the beginning?
He is still so short and thin, and the weapons in his hands appear "stronger" than him. Especially not far behind him, any soldier chosen at random - even a dead man, would be more powerful than he looked. However, the child's eyes were... so strange that they could not relate to him from any previous meeting.
Maybe there is: when he was temporarily sealed by Mutsuki-kun's rosary. His anger, his struggle, his killing intent as hard and sharp as a knife! The murderous intent became even stronger when his eyes met Han Shang's. Or maybe he wasn't targeting Han Shang, but it was the same thing when he looked at any living creature.
Does he... still have sense? Can he still recognize himself?
Hanshang doesn’t know. All he knew was that the army that was killing and killing could not take another step forward.
state!
The two weapons made an unpleasant buzzing sound, which was not clear at all. At the same time, an overwhelming number of spells shot out from behind Han Shangshen - of course they came from Xie Zhe. Those spells flashed with strange light in the air, and the lines on each one were radiant. When they touched the soldiers behind Feng, a crackling sound accompanied by billowing smoke stopped their marching steps in place.
Those are things that deal with the dead and have no effect on the living. The living people still held weapons and walked through the smoke. But in this way, the number of enemies has been greatly reduced, and Xie Zhe will not be too stressed when fighting them. But not long after, he still felt a little powerless - after all, the number of enemies was too huge, and there were also many survivors. They are all professionally trained people, even the militiamen. He gradually felt that it was difficult, and the spells in his hands were limited after all. What worries Xie Zhe even more is that these malnourished and sleep-deprived survivors seem to be getting braver as they fight?
He looked back and realized that his judgment was not an illusion.
The battle between Han Shan and Feng became more and more anxious, and even his eyes seemed to be infected by the strong killing intent. When he swung the flaming sword again, the tip of the sword almost hit Xie Zhe. At this distance, Han Zhang must have had a sense of judgment in the past. He even knew exactly where Xie Zhe was standing in a place he couldn't see. ——By sound, by understanding, by experience.
But this time, he almost cut off Xie Zhe's head. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough. Xie Zhe was still frightened, and after blocking the spear blow, he looked at Han Shang again. There is no foreign object in his heart, and his eyes are full of enemies in front of him.
Was he infected by the murderous intention, or... he wanted to kill Feng from the beginning, but this feeling was taken advantage of instead?
"Han Shang!!!"
Xie Zhe almost shouted at the top of his lungs, but he seemed not to hear him. Something even worse happened. Xie Zhe clearly saw a layer of blue flames emerging around Han Shangs body. The fire was indeed not under his control, but on the contrary, seemed to be controlling him. I'm afraid this is Shiranui's will - if it really has a will? Xie Zhe noticed that Han Chang's life force was passing away at a terrifying speed. The blue flame clung to the sword's edge, seeming to make it sharper.
At the same time, Maple's movements became more agile and powerful.
Feng also drew strength from Han Zhang's murderous intention.
Xie Zhe could hardly hold on any longer. This is probably the reason why this army follows Maple: they first assimilate with the intention to kill, and then become puppets who only know how to pursue the intention to kill. Once Maple gains strength, they will also become stronger. It’s a mutual strength and a virtuous cycle – for them.
Xie Zhe decided to change his strategy because he was afraid he wouldn't be able to hear him. He stepped on the weapons that came over him and jumped to a high place. Then, he turned around, his shadow passed over Han Shang, and the light wind slightly pulled the flames. At this moment, Xie Zhe suddenly struck Han Zhang directly with a slash.
He was knocked out - the dent in the ground was long and deep. But this time, his attack was not sharp, but replaced with a soft sword energy. It has a kind of toughness, which can peel off Shiranui's demonic power from Hanshang in a special way. The blue flames quickly dissipated as they left him, and the flames in Han Zhang's eyes seemed to fade a bit.
But of course this can't really remove Shiranui's power, it's just a temporary suppression. However, Xie Zhe had to admit that his approach was a bit risky, because this kind of swordsmanship... was something he had just realized.
Just be fine. Anyway, even if it really cuts someone, it is still much better than having their blood cut and their throat sealed with a knife.
It is much better to be killed on the spot than to die from blood loss.
"I just--"
Snapped! Xie Zhe blocked Feng's attack, making Han Zhang realize that now was not the time to chat. With just one look, Han Chang immediately understood what Xie Zhe meant: change his strategy. It is up to him to contain the army of the Evil Angel of Killing, and it is up to Xie Zhe to fight against the crazy Evil Angel of Killing. Feng struck again, and Xie Zhe clearly noticed that the power in Feng's hand was getting weaker and weaker.
It wasn't that he was tired, but that his murderous intent had subsided.
The reason is simple - Xie Zhe doesn't want to kill him, he just wants him to stop. Han Chang is so...reckless, of course he has his own reasons. But Xie Zhe won't. Although he knew very well that the ten evils needed to be eradicated, but if he sincerely asked his soul, the answer he gave was that he still did not hope that things would develop to that point.
Because when he thought that this child had once been a human being... he couldn't help but feel sad.
Han Chang realized that Xie Zhe's suggestion was so effective - if he had known it was this way, he would have chosen this option in the first place. He also has his own method of dealing with these armies, which he just came up with.
Although he didn't like open flames, he had no choice at the moment.
