When the players in the sand game were attacked by Xue Yu, one of the ghost slaves, we who were hundreds of miles away were naturally unaware of the crisis happening over there. At this time, we were listening to the players in the river game with heavy expressions. Complaints about the misery she experienced.
Just a few minutes ago, we discovered three ghost energy fluctuations coming from the distance. Judging from their speed, which can be said to be the limit of perfection, we thought they were obviously running for their lives.
No matter which angle we look at it, we cannot just sit idly by and ignore these people in the He Bureau.
It's one thing to have conflicts with the river bureau, but it's another thing to lend a helping hand in times of crisis. In front of ghost slaves, we must put aside some of our past prejudices and unite to help each other as much as possible.
Fortunately, there were no ghost slaves chasing these people, so after a brief discussion, we Yang Bureau unanimously decided to leave the cave to stop them and hide them in the cave where we were.
Later, from their mouths, we learned what He Bureau had just experienced.
"We were hiding next to the Ghost Qi Monument in "Qingshenquan" and dug a hole in the ground just like you. We originally chose this place to rely on the power of the Ghost Qi Monument. We hoped that if something happened, the Ghost Qi Monument could help withstand the attack. 2. But the facts prove that our idea is wrong. The Ghost Qi Monument is too conspicuous, making it easy for ghost slaves to target it."
"There was a male ghost slave codenamed Night Owl. When he passed by the ghost monument, he deliberately released his mental power. At that time, we were exposed and were seriously injured by the mental power."
"The life-saving props were used, but the time this thing lasted was too short. It took more than a dozen life-saving props stacked together to trap him for less than twenty seconds, and this distance was not enough for us to completely escape."
"You ask about the Ghost Qi Monument? I can only say that it has some effect, but not much. After all, its main function is just a pointing monument, not a defense tower. The Ghost Qi Monument can at most block the Night Owl for a moment. , not even three seconds, let alone hurt him..."
"We had absolutely no power to resist in front of Night Owl. Even though we later dispersed and fled nearly two kilometers while he was trapped, as soon as he escaped from the trap, he directly burst out with a wave of mental power. Many people were affected by it at that time. They were severely injured, and their positions were exposed..."
After talking about what had just happened, the expressions on the faces of several river game players were very complicated, with a bit of fear and a bit of anger, but mostly sadness. Among the three, a girl named Han Xiaoxiao kept wiping away tears. The other two boys' eyes were red when they talked about this, and the sadness and pain were clearly visible on their faces.
Their grief is actually not difficult to understand. Even if many river game players can successfully escape under the attack of the two-star ghost slaves, most players will die at the hands of the ghost slaves. This is an inevitable fact.
well!
After hearing what happened in the river game, I felt uncomfortable. After being silent for a while, I looked at the sad faces of the river game players and spoke with complicated emotions: "Then... what happened next?" , what happened next?”
As soon as I said these words, the three people's emotions collapsed. Han Xiaoxiao's newly restrained tears burst out again, covering her mouth and crying silently. The other two boys also silently wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.
"Sorry, I..."
Seeing their reaction like this, I knew I had said the wrong thing. At that time, I wanted to punch myself twice. I shouldn't have mentioned this at this time. If they wanted to say it, they would have said it long ago. Obviously my question touched upon the most painful part of their hearts!
"It's okay, we're okay..."
Hearing this, the three of them waved their hands towards me, indicating that I don't need to apologize. One of them, a man named Jiang Yu, said solemnly: "After Ye Xiao escaped from the trap, he specifically picked out the people running behind. He originally wanted to chase us with his strength. It’s so easy, even if we disperse and escape, at least half of us will die!”
"But at this moment, Brother Xu, who was fleeing at the front, suddenly turned his head and burned his soul to block Ye Xiao!"
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu was a little emotional and said: "Originally, Brother Xu was the most promising to escape, but in order to save us, he burned his soul to buy us time to escape! Our lives were bought by Brother Xu with his own life of!"
"Cui Xu burned the soul..."
Hearing this, my expression changed. I didn't expect that Cui Xu, who we had never dealt with, would actually make such a sacrifice to save the lives of his teammates. It was really admirable.
But then again, Cui Xu could stop Ye Xiao for a short time by burning his soul, but it couldn't last long. His actions were just like what Jiang Yu said, he was completely overdrawing his life in exchange for time.
If nothing else, Cui Xu is probably dead by now...
Thinking of this, my heart felt a little heavy and I had mixed feelings.
Although we have always had some disputes with He Bureau, and my sense of Cui Xu is not very good, I have never thought of letting them die.
In the final analysis, we are just fighting for profit and reputation. It is just a small fight, and there is no life-or-death hatred. What's more, we are both members of the Spiritual Adjustment Bureau, a member of the Chinese nation, and a member of humanity. We are naturally bound together in the face of the anti-human ghost slaves.
So, after I learned that Cui Xu, who had been ignoring me, was probably dead, I didn't feel happy at all. Instead, I felt extremely heavy, and I felt like a rabbit was dead and a fox was sad!
"Don't be too sad. Didn't you also see Cui Xu die with your own eyes? Maybe Cui Xu escaped." Probably seeing Han Xiaoxiao crying so sadly, Sun Qing felt soft and couldn't help but step forward. He comforted softly.
"You don't understand the situation at all. It's better not to comfort you without any basis!" Hearing this, Han Xiaoxiao didn't appreciate Sun Qing's kind comfort. Instead, she cried even harder, and her tone even seemed to transfer anger and grief. The feeling on Sun Qing’s head.
"Why are you like this..."
Sun Wei wanted to say something for Sun Qing, but Sun Qing pulled Sun Wei's sleeve and shook his head at him, so Sun Wei had to swallow his retort.
Sun Qing was very gentle in her heart. She knew that Han Xiaoxiao was in grief at the moment. She didn't get angry even after being so angry. She just retreated silently and didn't make a sound.
Although we wanted to say something for Sun Qing, we saw that Han Xiaoxiao was choking and couldn't bear to say anything back, and Sun Qing had no intention of replying, so we simply fell silent.
For a moment, the only sound left in the cave was Han Xiaoxiao's sobs.
Looking at Han Xiaoxiao with tears on her face, I felt mixed emotions in my heart.
The He Bureau was in pieces under the attack of the ghost slaves, and Cui Xu was also dead. There were probably branches in other places that were attacked by the ghost slaves, but the Imperial Bureau had not yet taken any action...
What will be our fate next?
Should he survive until the Imperial Bureau's rescue arrives, or should he let the ghost slaves kill him one by one?
Just when I was worried about the future, a powerful aura suddenly entered my senses, and my expression immediately changed.
Another ghost slave is coming!
