And 659 assured Zhang Ning that even if the psychic energy in his body was in danger, it would still be more than enough to deal with Li Baiyi.
Even if he is ambushed or trapped, he can still deal with it.
Logically speaking, Zhang Ning shouldn't believe such arrogant words.
But he happened to have witnessed 659's previous battle with Li Baiyi, and saw 659's decisiveness in the snake pit.
After some hesitation, he unexpectedly agreed!
Then there was a scene of two people and one corpse walking on the snowy night.
In order to save time, Li Baiyi chose to pass directly through the blood cave.
This old reservoir has long lost its function.
The river bank that had not been taken care of for a long time was overgrown with grass. Because the dam body cracked, the water level in the reservoir dropped to a very low level.
It is more like a barren swamp than a reservoir.
In this swamp, there lives a mutated creature that is not very aggressive but extremely infiltrative - the brown-backed leech.
"The biological serial number of the brown-backed leech should be 217. It is a social creature. Its life energy level is... uh..."
Zhang Ning recalled the content about the brown-backed leech, like a primary school student who endorsed it.
"Delta level, also known as zero level life form."
659 added very promptly.
"Compared to the non-threat-level life form Ypsilon-class, brown-backed leech already has certain attack capabilities. A lone Delta-class can be easily killed by human beings with abilities, but a group of Delta-class Super life forms will pose a certain threat to ability users."
"Brown-backed leeches are one of the more difficult species of Delta-class creatures. They live in groups and have a very sensitive sense of smell."
Looking at 659, who was memorizing it profusely, Zhang Ning had a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"Okay, young man, no wonder rice worm cakes are given to people like you. It's really more effective than us old guys..."
Hearing the compliment, a kind smile appeared on 659's face without explaining anything.
In fact, he did not know the brown-backed leech as well as Zhang Ning thought. The reason why he was able to recite all the information was mainly due to the search function of the monocle.
Walking on the river embankment at the edge of the blood cave, several people did not receive any attacks.
Because brown-backed leeches, like mutant snakes, are cold-blooded animals, they will fall into a semi-dormant state after the temperature drops suddenly.
At this moment, as long as they don't deliberately jump into the swamp below, they won't attract the attention of those blood-sucking monsters.
This is also the reason why Li Baiyi dared to cross the blood cave directly.
After walking for about half an hour and carefully crossing a steel cable bridge, we finally left the blood cave and entered the territory of zombies.
It was at this moment that Zhang Ning realized that this dilapidated town, which had been surrounded by wilderness hunters in the past, was actually the territory of the general-level zombie Li Baiyi.
"Hey, I'm finally home, but my old bones are exhausted..."
As soon as he stepped into his own realm, Li Baiyi's tense face finally showed a smile.
That's right, he was carrying little Ada's body the whole time!
After coming out of the snake nest, I have been carrying it and never put it down.
"Why is there not even a single secondary infected body in your territory..."
Looking around warily, 659 made a confused sound.
Based on his understanding of general-level zombies, under normal circumstances, there will be at least a large number of secondary infections distributed around the territory. These poor bastards with low attack power cannot provide much help to general-level zombies, but they can act as a human wall when necessary. , blocking some threats.
Moreover, for general-level zombies, the mental cost of controlling a hundred secondary infected bodies may not be as high as controlling one second-level soldier-level zombie.
When necessary, the secondary infected body can also become food for mutated zombies, which can be said to be a multi-purpose approach.
But it was quiet in Li Baiyi's territory. If it hadn't been for his reminder at the beginning, 659 would have thought they hadn't arrived yet.
"Hey, do you think that catching a general will make you one of the top ten generals in the East District? There are already three or sixty-nine people, let alone a zombie turned into a human..."
Li Baiyi shook his head, and after saying this, he walked into the town on his own.
659 and Zhang Ning behind them looked at each other and followed them silently.
Although the town that Li Baiyi took as his territory was dilapidated, it was still neat inside.
Along the way, I saw no animal bones or human remains.
The town is not big, and it only takes three minutes to walk from the head of the town to the center of the town.
Calculating the length, it's about four to five hundred meters.
Li Baiyi's residence is a two-story hotel. Of course, there are no counter staff to receive guests.
Putting little Ada's body at the door, Li Baiyi took Zhang Ning and 659 and walked upstairs on the creaking wooden stairs.
At first, Li Baiyi had no intention of asking Zhang Ning and 659 to follow him, he just wanted them to wait downstairs.
However, 659's vigilance obviously exceeded Li Baiyi's expectations. He bluntly rejected the other party's proposal and insisted on following him upstairs.
Think about it, what if Li Baiyi plays a trick and runs away?
Now this is a fool's errand, and 659 they have nowhere to look.
The other party is hiding it and they are revealing it. Wouldn't it be a repeat of Zhang Ning's original mistake?
To be on the safe side, it's better to follow closely.
After going upstairs, Li Baiyi walked straight to the end of the corridor, took out the key from his large robe, and opened the door.
Looking at the opponent's series of actions, Zhang Ning couldn't help but feel a little funny.
"You are a general-level zombie, why do you lock the door? Is it possible that you are afraid that if you fall asleep at night, other zombies will come and steal your home?"
Hearing this teasing, Li Baiyi was not angry, but just smiled helplessly.
"Before I became a general-level zombie, I really didn't have the habit of locking the door. With my half-step cultivation, I lived the life of an idle cloud and wild crane."
"But it's different now. I'm only a third-level general. My strength is too low. I have to be careful about everything..."
With that said, Li Baiyi stepped into the room.
This time 659 and Zhang Ning did not follow because the space in the room was very limited. They could see all Li Baiyi's movements clearly by standing at the door.
I saw the general lying on the ground, groping under the bed, and took out a box wrapped in cloth.
After simply dusting off the dust on his head, Li Baiyi didn't open it and walked directly towards 659 and Zhang Ning.
"This is the inheritance of the Zongheng lineage. I hope you can treat it well and understand it seriously..."
After speaking, Li Baiyi pushed it with both hands, and the box came into Zhang Ning's hands.
"Is it that simple? There is no process like transferring skills to go through?"
Zhang Ning looked at the wooden box in his arms and looked at the general-level zombies in front of him with suspicion.
"No, just figure it out yourself..."
Li Baiyi shook his head slightly and put his hands behind his back.
There was melancholy on his face, and there was a hint of sadness in his purple eyes. It was as if a soldier who had finally completed his mission had lost all direction in an instant.
Maybe he can be liberated, truly liberated.
But at this moment, a touch of light green suddenly flashed across 659's quiet monocle.
The color is not bright and reflects the three.
It was like a bad prophecy, telling what was about to happen next.
The sadness in Li Baiyi's eyes suddenly disappeared, and turned into a deep fear.
"How could it be? Why is she here..."
Hearing Li Baiyi murmur, 659 frowned.
The string of data that just crossed the lens shows that the dimensional slope of timeline 4982 has changed again!
No matter who "she" in Li Baiyi's mouth refers to, it must be related to the change in the slope of the dimension.
"Who's coming?"
Staring into Li Baiyi's purple eyes, 659 asked in a deep voice.
But Li Baiyi did not reply honestly this time, but said anxiously.
"Oh, you guys, hurry up! If you don't leave, it's too late! She may have detected your presence, so leave from the west side of the town! Hurry up..."
"We won't leave until you make it clear."
Facing Li Baiyi's anxiety, although 659 did not show a look of panic on his face, his speaking speed accelerated a lot when asking.
"...It's too late, she has already discovered you..."
Li Baiyi let out a long sigh, his legs became weak, and he sat down on the ground.
"I said, Lao Li, you are so courageous. Who on earth came here to scare you like this..."
Zhang Ning didn't have anything to worry about. He looked at Li Baiyi who was slumped on the ground with a joking look on his face.
But soon, he couldn't laugh anymore.
Because Li Baiyi reported a name that scared him to death.
"Eastern District, the leader of the top ten generals—Lin Tanying."
"What? Say it again?!"
Zhang Ning's eyes widened, and even the tone of his inquiry changed.
"That's the eighth-level general named [Junior High School Student] by your human race, Lin Tanying."
"It's over, it's over, it's useless now..."
With a bang, Zhang Ning hugged the box and collapsed on the ground.
Like Li Baiyi, his spine seemed to have been ripped away in an instant, and his whole body turned into a puddle of powerless mud.
"The leader of the top ten generals in the Eastern Region, Lin Tanying..."
Different from the reactions of Zhang Ning and Li Baiyi, 659 did not fall to the ground with weak legs.
He just frowned and thought about something quietly...
The other end.
The sky, above the clouds.
The moonlight shines on the gray-white clouds, filling the sky and earth with a strange red.
In the cold air, hundreds of flesh-winged shadows whizzed past.
At the forefront of these figures is a strange bird with black and white feathers and a huge body.
Sitting on the neck of the strange bird is a young girl wrapped in a fur coat.
It was the eighth-level general who scared Li Baiyi to the point of weakness, the leader of the Eastern District—Lin Tanying.
At this moment, she had her eyes closed tightly, as if she had encountered something disturbing, and Liu Ye's beautiful eyebrows were slightly frowned.
After leaning a little, a pair of purple pupils opened faintly, like two deep pools with no bottom.
"What is Li Baiyi doing? Why is there not even a single follower in the town..."
