Li Yan's momentum also surged, and he was extremely worried about what Zhao Tianming said. Moreover, under such circumstances, School No. 8 actually chose to divide his troops into two groups to support him.
And with good luck, this relatively weak team was able to return to the Mengcheng camp safely.
"Mentors, you are seriously injured. I will take the children on another trip. With Huang Zhan coming to support, I believe there will be no major problems. The children of the samurai who have not been reached during our operation will No need to go."
This makes those civilian children who are full of fighting spirit but have not reached the level of warriors very unwilling. But they also know that an accident that can stop the three schools is definitely not something they can participate in.
In the end, in addition to the five people from School No. 8, the new team also included Li Yan and nine children. Four of the nine children were children from School No. 1. They were all children of the family who were defeated by Li Yiyi with one move when they were fighting. .
Their aura has become more powerful now, fully living up to the name of the big family's geniuses.
That is to say, because Li Yiyi is too strong and talented, she is like a bright moon, so they can only be willing to be stars.
The commander saw that Zhao Tianming and the others had just returned and were about to leave in a hurry, so he quickly followed up and asked about the situation. It's just that Mengcheng is extremely empty at the moment. The remaining monks are the last guards in the city and cannot go out to provide assistance.
Two carriages were prepared for the team, and Zhao Tianming and Li Yan rushed out of the city one by one.
"The cleaning task of School No. 11 has been completed. We will go directly to Qingyuan Town where School No. 4 is."
After telling Li Yan the target, Zhao Tianming said nothing more, and the two carriages sped along.
In the carriage, Yiran looked heavy and whispered to the three of them. "With the strength of Instructor Huang Zhan as a third-level martial artist, even if he encounters a second-level monster, he should be able to capture it with ease. But their speed is slower than ours, which shows that the situation they encounter is very troublesome."
"Either they have also encountered a group of monsters, or they have encountered peak second-order or even third-order monsters. I am more inclined to the first type."
"If it is the first type, as long as the King of Warcraft is contained, you still have the possibility to participate in the battle. But if it is the second type, then there is no point in your participation. You must remember that the priority is to protect your life. Our battlefield It must be in the future”
When the carriage rushed all the way to the clean Zichuan Town of School No. 11, there was no abnormality on the road. As the carriage drove onto the official road from Zichuan Town to Qingyuan Town, the road began to become depressing.
When Yiran opened his senses to observe the heaven and earth, he felt that black clouds were pressing down on the official road, blood was everywhere, and an ominous omen lingered in his heart. This kind of strange phenomenon in the world was a serious disaster.
This kind of sign spreading from a distance shows that it is not caused by him, which means that Teacher Huang Zhan and the others have encountered a shocking crisis!
After walking along the official road for more than ten miles, my eyes suddenly opened up. The official road more than two feet wide divides the world into two sections, with dense forests on one side and vast plains on the other.
The forest is lush and green, covering the sky and the sun, like giant sentinels guarding the border, meticulous and neat.
The plain on the other side is endless and has a wide view. To the naked eye, the sky is high, the sun is bright, the wind is light, the clouds are light, and it looks like a magnificent scene of great rivers and mountains.
No matter how good the scenery is, it can't calm everyone's mood.
Heading north along the official road, we finally arrived at Qingyuan Town two hours later.
The Qingyuan Town that came into view was extremely dilapidated, with almost half of the houses and pavilions collapsed, and the scene was horrific.
Mottled blood stains spread all over Qingyuan Town. At this moment, the blood stains have dried up, leaving only patches of dark brown marks, telling everyone the difficulty of this battle.
A battle that can destroy half of the entire town must be a close fight, and casualties may result if you are not careful. There are no more monsters in the town, which means that School No. 4 won, but they don't know what price they paid.
Walking out of Qingyuan Town, the black clouds in the entire sky were already visible to the naked eye, seeming to herald the coming of heavy rain, and giving people a sense of urgency that the black clouds were overwhelming the city.
As the carriage drove towards Guzhen, the last town in the north, Guzhen was the town closest to the World of Warcraft Forest among all the towns. It is in a straight line with Mengcheng of Liuxue City, so the monks and strong men from Mengcheng must pass through Guzhen when they go to Liuxuecheng. Therefore, Guzhen should be the least dangerous town, but for some reason an accident happened here.
When he was still more than ten miles away from Guzhen, Yiran realized something was wrong. In perception, you can clearly feel the blood energy in the air, just like red smoke curling up. This is almost substantial blood energy!
Only when there are too many casualties and countless blood gathers to form a place of death will such condensed blood energy appear. The blood energy will slowly dissipate over time. Often after a day, the blood will dry up and the blood energy will also dissipate.
But now, not only are there no traces of battle here, the blood stains on the ground that are almost invisible to the naked eye have long dried up, but the blood is so strong!
After the carriage continued to drive for several miles, Li Yan and Zhao Tianming also discovered something was wrong.
The smell of blood filled everyone's nostrils. When they closed their eyes, it seemed as if they were already in purgatory. But when they opened their eyes, what they saw was the clear sky and earth.
But they didn't know that what Yiran felt was the death energy of all things.
The leaves of the century-old trees are drooping. Some of the leaves have turned yellow. The green grass has withered and died. Everything is silent. There are no insects or birds. I feel that the vitality of the plants within a hundred feet is gradually disappearing, and the world is desolate. .
Zhao Tianming and Li Yan did not feel these abnormalities. After smelling the smell of blood, they felt anxious in their hearts. As a support team, and not heading to the city where disaster struck, we encountered so many surprises. Although life and death are involved in disasters, it is hard to explain such casualties back to the academy!
Fifteen people got off the carriage and walked all the way into Guzhen. They didn't even find any enemies. After entering Gu Town, Yi Ran clearly felt that the atmosphere of the town was abnormal.
Just like when you enter Baishou Town, you can clearly feel the coolness brought by the abundant spiritual energy, but here you feel the terror of the forest in broad daylight, just like the feeling when you first entered Goode's study.
"Is it a ban?"
However, Yiran did not find any restrictions or constraints in his perception. There was no fighting and no bodies, which gave everyone the feeling that the town had been cleared.
But the town is full of weirdness, making everyone feel abnormal.
Just when Yiran took back his senses, Yiran saw a strange scene, and the path he came from disappeared.
"Illusion Array! But why is there such a large phantom array here?" Without disturbing everyone, Yiran followed and explored the town.
Gusts of cold wind blew through the bells hanging under the eaves, swinging and "dinging" in the wind. The yellow leaves on the ground flew up and fell again with the wind. Several old trees that had lost all their vitality were like emaciated old people.
Li Yan and Zhao Tianming's eyes were solemn, and the timid children were almost trembling. The cold aura made everyone feel fearful.
The fear is not the battle, but the unknown.
At this moment, there was a crisp sound of tiles exploding from the distant roof, and a girl in green clothes with twin ponytails flew towards the roof. Who else could it be if it wasn't Li Yiyi!
It's just that Li Yiyi's face is pale at the moment, and she is no longer as carefree and playful as before, and her cultivation level has also broken through, and she is a five-star warrior! With her top martial arts skills and martial arts mentality, she can completely defeat some theoretical instructors at this moment!
The sun gradually sets in the west, dark clouds cover the sky, and suddenly there is a strong wind. The sound of "ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, bells" suddenly becomes confusing and disturbing, making people feel inexplicably irritable.
At the same time, a "rustling" sound came into Yiran's ears. The sound seemed like something was breaking out of the ground.
Just then Li Yiyi's anxious voice came out, "Hurry up, they are coming soon!"
This sentence shocked everyone, they are coming soon!
Yiran also instantly understood that the crisis came from underground, and the strange sound was that they were about to break out of the ground. And Yiran instantly thought of what they encountered!
Blood Zombie, Drought Demon, two legendary zombies!
In the world of the past, this kind of thing could only appear in horror movies, but it was recorded in history as a real thing. They are corpses that have not decayed for thousands of years and are resurrected under special circumstances, becoming a kind of ghosts that have no humanity or reason.
They feed on blood, are infinite, indestructible, and more aggressive than monsters.
Everyone followed Li Yiyi to a wide courtyard. It was said that the entire mansion had been bulldozed, and the only thing that remained was the wall. Outside the wall, a circle of fires had been set up along the corners.
Following the team into the courtyard, Yiran expanded his perception to the limit and glanced at the place where the noise came from. At this moment, Yiran saw two mentors and four children, half of their bodies crawling out of the ground. Their flesh and blood were shriveled, their skin was pale, and their nails were pitch black. Sure enough, it's a zombie!
It was just the severe pain in his head that made Yiran lose his footing and fall into the yard.
Zhao Tianming's eyes narrowed, and he quickly helped Yiran up. His eyes were full of questions, but Yiran just shook his head.
Everyone in the courtyard except School No. 8 had ugly expressions, and Li Yan also frowned. I don't know why I encountered a problem that even Huang Zhan couldn't solve, and I had to bring four children who had never even entered the warrior realm.
That's right, when he didn't show off his strength, Yiran's aura didn't even reach that of a warrior. It was completely different from the aura he would show when a martial artist reached a certain level of cultivation.
Huang Zhan and Zhao Tianming only thought that the powerful alchemist taught Yi Ran the secret technique of hiding his aura.
Not caring about the eyes of everyone, Yiran walked straight towards Huang Zhan in the center of the yard. At this time, Huang Zhan's expression was extremely bad. He had obviously consumed too much, and he no longer had the majestic power to easily interrupt the one-horned dragon of the dry land.
Seeing Zhao Tianming Yiran coming and bringing with him instructor Li Yan, a wry smile appeared on his face. I'm glad that no accident happened to the other team after they separated, but I'm also worried about the dead situation they're in now.
"Teacher Huang Zhan, why don't you leave? And there is no danger in the town. Why do you feel like a disaster is imminent?" Li Yan asked first with full of doubts.
"The town is surrounded by a phantom formation, and we can't get out of the town. As for the danger, it will appear soon." Huang Zhan sighed.
"There are no Warcraft in the town, but there is a strange humanoid creature. This creature is invulnerable and powerful. The blood mist on its body can absorb the internal energy in martial arts, making it difficult for all martial arts to be effective. Although the close combat effect is , but the danger is extremely high. Their bodies are like gold and iron, more powerful than monsters. And they are full of poison. If they are injured, the wounds will fester, and those who are bitten will become their kind."
"When we arrived here, two mentors and several children had been bitten, but no changes had occurred yet. By the next night, they actually attacked us together with that weird creature!"
Huang Zhan's voice was trembling when he spoke. What a terrible thing. This poison is actually contagious and turns other people into its own kind!
Li Yan also had a look of horror on his face, feeling both angry and powerless towards these strange creatures. They were aliens that even Huang Zhan couldn't kill. Then I and others can only be trapped here, praying that someone can come to rescue.
"How terrifying are their strengths? Why is this happening!"
"Actually, their strength is only at the middle level of the second level, which is not scary. What's scary is that their martial arts are ineffective, and their bodies are powerful!"
While the two were talking, there were many whimpering sounds outside the yard that could not be covered up by the sound of footsteps and bells, and there were quite a few figures, at least a dozen figures.
When these sounds came, the injured children's faces were filled with horror and contortion, as if they were in a nightmare and couldn't control themselves. Li Yan lightly jumped onto the wall, and the scene in front of him made him extremely angry.
The eyes of the two familiar tutors and four children who had just turned eight years old were no longer shining. The muscles are sunken and the bones are protruding, saliva drips from the corners of the mouth, and the limbs are stiff and it is difficult to move. The tutor who used to chat and laugh happily in the academy has become an alien now!
They were hovering outside the fire, but they did not step into the circle of fire.
"They are afraid of the sun shining day and night, and they were attacked on the first night when School No. 5 entered the town. It was because they found out that they were afraid of fire that they managed to survive. Just because of the phantom formation, it was difficult for them to leave, so it seemed that they could Just waiting to die!"
"Then they looked for a way out during the day and lit fires at night to drive away these monsters. But then the bloody monster appeared. It was not afraid of fire and was stronger, so it infected the two mentors into the same kind. .”
"It's just that after I injured it, it disappeared in the past two days, but because it was a hand-to-hand fight, I didn't get much benefit."
Li Yan turned back to look at Huang Zhan who was speaking, and saw a large piece of flesh and blood rolled up on his chest. He had not seen it because of his clothes when he was sitting cross-legged.
There were countless wounds on other parts that had just scabbed over, obviously caused by cutting away the rotten flesh with a knife after being injured.
The cleaning up of Gu Town seemed to be at a dead end. Everyone and the monsters were trapped in Gu Town, making it difficult for them to leave. It's just that in a situation where there is no end to the fight, it is difficult for the other party to do anything, so the will to fight is delayed.
The scene was completely silent. Only the scorching heat of the fire and the crackling sound of dry wood gave everyone a slight sense of security.
