There is no doubt that Peng Hu can't understand Chen Shuihong's acceleration mechanism, but he is a well-informed veteran after all. In fact, with just one glance, he has basically guessed the answer to the reason. What is the answer? The answer is that Chen Shuihong used props. In all likelihood, he used some props that could instantly increase his speed! However, although it is right to escape in a critical moment, there is no need for you, Fatty Chen, to only care about yourself, right? Even if you can't take everyone away, there is no problem just taking away Tang Meng, who is the lightest on the scene. If you can run one more, unexpectedly, this guy...
Of course, since Chen Shuihong had already run far away, it was useless to say anything now. Not only that, while Peng Hu was cursing, behind him, the already extremely fast mummy also closed the distance again, with only the last 5 meters left!
5 meters represents the distance of death, which means that in just one second, three people, including Peng Hu himself, will die. They are destined to be easily beaten to pulp by the physical mummies!
"ah!"
Seeing death approaching in the blink of an eye, Peng Hu screamed. However, this was not a scream of fear, but a sharp roar as if he was dead!
Yes, due to the extremely fast speed of the locust and the fact that the two sides were too close to take out the props, facing the impending death, Peng Hu, who had been panicked and trembling just now, was no longer afraid. Not only was he not afraid, but he was also inspired. He became fierce and activated the unique ability of a tough guy...
heroic nature!
It was too late, but it was so fast. At the same second that the mummy flew in front of him, Peng Hu roared and jumped up, quickly dodging before the mummy could make a move. First, he dodged towards Li Tianheng and Tang Meng, who were all stunned. forward, then raised his arms and struck hard!
"Get the hell out of here!"
Bang dong.
Amidst Peng Hu's rough roar that resounded through the eardrums, Li Tianheng and Tang Meng, who were suddenly hit, fell back uncontrollably. Peng Hu slammed them into the stairs behind them. However, they were knocked away by his elbow and were temporarily safe. , but Peng Hu lost the chance to dodge due to the collision with the two, and was now exposed in front of the mummy!
"die!"
The result was predictable. As soon as he flew in front of Peng Hu, the mummy man raised his arm and swung it down fiercely, carrying the hurricane that broke through the sky. His hand suddenly slapped down, like Peng Hu's head, which was very close at hand!
As mentioned above, when facing a desperate situation with no escape, Peng Hu, who was usually scolded as an idiot by Cheng Ying, instantly turned into a smart person. He is an extremely smart person who understands mathematical conversions. The best evidence for smartness is Precisely, it is better for one person to die than for all three to die!
Precisely because he knew this, at the critical moment, Peng Hu knocked away Li Tianheng and Tang Meng. He faced the mummy directly and faced the opponent's powerful and fatal blow!
"Ah! No, no!"
At this moment, feeling the cold wind above his head and experiencing the fatal attack that was about to happen in a blink of an eye, Peng Hu fell into a trance. In the trance, time seemed to slow down and space seemed to condense. Through the trance, he seemed to hear voices, and heard Li Tianheng almost approaching. He heard Tang Meng's piercing scream, listened to the two voices, and without looking back, Peng Hu could predict the other party's expression and guess the other party's reaction. The thought was like this, and the fact was also like this. During the regression, whether it was Li Tianheng or Tang Meng, both of them were struggling, trying to stabilize their bodies and return to the front. Unfortunately, they couldn't do it. Under the impact of Peng Hu's extremely powerful force, they couldn't break away from the inertia, so they had no choice but to follow the inertia. They fell behind each other and fell towards the stairs. At the last moment, they could only scream and roar desperately. They only had time to take a look at the man, and finally took a look at the man's tall and majestic back.
The moment he fell down the stairs, Li Tianheng burst into tears. A large number of tears flew out of his eyes and splashed on the spot when he was forced to lean back. Covered in tears, Li Tianheng regretted why he was so frightened by fear. If he had reacted faster just now, , if he moves faster, he might be able to use the props. With the props, maybe Peng Hu doesn't need to sacrifice himself to protect them. However, it's too late, everything is too late, because just as he fell towards the stairs At that moment, in addition to the burly figure, the last thing that came into view was the life-threatening hand of the mummy scorpion! ! !
"Brother Peng!!!"
……………
It is said that when a person comes into contact with death, time often slows down in his perception. Peng Hu has not studied this statement, and he has never cared about it. However, even though he does not study or care, he is At this moment, he really felt in a trance and experienced an indescribable silence and calmness. During the trance, he heard many voices and saw many pictures, including the past and the present, until he was stopped by Li Tianheng and Tang Meng who were screaming from behind. I woke up with a start, and as I broke away from my trance, what I saw was a squid, a mummy squid that was almost crazy like a human!
Relying on an abnormal speed that is three times faster than that of humans, the mummy did not give anyone a chance. It flew in front of Peng Hu in just an instant, and then under the bald man's determined and unyielding gaze, he raised his hand and waved it down fiercely. In an instant, The dry palm that represented the death was slapped directly on Peng Hu's forehead!
This was the last scene Li Tianheng saw when he fell into the stairs. He tried to stop it and planned to change, but unfortunately time did not allow him to stop the change, because from the time Peng Hu knocked him away to when his body fell backwards and fell into the stairs, the whole process only lasted one second. , almost at the same time, the mummy also flew in front of Peng Hu and waved to attack, fast, very fast, beyond the reach of human beings. It is conceivable that even Peng Hu, whose skill and reaction were all superior to his, could not dodge. He then What can be done? What can be saved?
There was no way to save him, so Li Tianheng could only yell. He only had time to take one last look at the man, trying to imprint this man firmly in his mind.
Li Tianheng thought that Peng Hu was dead, Tang Meng thought that Peng Hu was dead, and Peng Hu, who was facing the worm, was even more convinced that he was completely unable to dodge the mummy worm's life-threatening attack that was three times faster than him. It is true that reality In front of him, but in fact, there was still one thing he didn't know, something that he couldn't know due to the dim environment and long distance, that was...
At this moment, if someone looks along the stairs to the opposite side, past Peng Hu and even the mummy in front of him, and continues to the hall on the second floor near the stairs, then he will see that in this hall lined with columns, in Behind a column, two people are currently hiding, a cute girl and another gentle man wearing a suit and glasses. The girl is currently closing her eyes and not moving, while the man is hiding behind the column holding a camera. The camera was pointed straight at the mummy in front!
Zhao Ping!
As I have said before, occasionally despair and hope will appear at the same time. Even if despair is always greater than hope, after all, it depends on manpower and trying. Although trying may not necessarily succeed, if you don’t try, you will fail 100%. Obviously, because of the same, On the second floor, a minute ago, just as Zhao Ping was carrying Kong Ling through the hall, he heard the sound, saw the change, and saw four people running out of the corridor in the south district not far away, four people he knew. Acquaintances, the other party is none other than Peng Hu and the four who took advantage of the opportunity to escape!
Xu Shi could roughly tell Ni Duan from the panicked running movements of the four people. Seeing this, Zhao Ping, who had been cautious for ten thousand years, did not show up to contact him. Instead, he hid behind the pillar as quickly as possible and observed secretly. What happened next? , Zhao Ping witnessed an accident, and saw with his own eyes an unexpected scene that instantly caused his liver and gallbladder to split apart:
Through observation, it was first confirmed that Peng Hu and the others intended to rush up the stairs to escape to the first floor. However, to Zhao Ping's surprise, as soon as the four of them approached the edge of the stairs, the mummy was suspended in mid-air and chased them out!
The mummy is actually a mummy! ! !
Yes, others may not know it, but Zhao Ping knows that the mummy-like undead soul has long been finished. It was destroyed by the ethereal sneak attack that had its soul separated from the body not long ago. Even the body and soul were burned to ashes by the Netherworld Fire, and then completed. Everything was reduced to ashes and smoke, and the real spirit and form were completely destroyed. It was obviously destroyed, but now it appears again! He was reborn again inexplicably! Not only was he reborn, he also discovered that the opponent's speed increased sharply after his rebirth. The mummy that was supposed to move slowly in his impression was now moving extremely fast, and was currently chasing Peng Hu and the others at more than three times the speed of a human!
Because the pursuit speed was so fast, it only took a few seconds for the mummy to successfully catch up with Peng Hu and the others, forcing Peng Hu, Li Tianheng, Tang Meng and Chen Shuihong into a desperate situation. As the most fearful person present, facing the desperate situation, Being timid and afraid of death made Chen Shuihong the fastest person to respond at the scene. I don’t know what kind of method he used. Before the creature could get completely close, Chen Shuihong disappeared. He escaped in the blink of an eye at a speed that was as fast as an afterimage, without any trace. Question, similar to Peng Hu, after witnessing this scene, Zhao Ping also instantly guessed that the fat man must have used a prop, and used a functional prop that could temporarily increase speed. Chen Shuihong used the prop to run alone, but was left behind. However, Peng Hu and the others were completely in a desperate situation, as if no one expected that the mummy would follow them. Seeing the mummy rushing towards them, Li Tianheng and Tang Meng were both frightened. However, Peng Hu managed to react and then grabbed Before the attack, he knocked the two of them into the stairs, and he was exposed in front of the attack, facing the attack with no reaction at all. He could only watch helplessly, watching death come, and watching the slap on the head. The life-threatening mantis!
There is no doubt about the importance of Peng Hu, in the eyes of He Fei and also in the eyes of Zhao Ping, so...
As soon as he saw the situation clearly, Zhao Ping took out his supernatural camera and quickly pointed the lens at the mummy hawk without thinking about the rebirth of the mummy hawk! Of course, because the distance is not too close, coupled with the abnormal strength of the mummy, which is comparable to that of the Earthbound Spirit, Zhao Ping does not expect the camera to be able to completely freeze the opponent. His purpose is simple, that is, to interfere, to influence the opponent by taking pictures, and to interfere. The other party thus buys time for Peng Hu. As long as the mummy can be stopped for a moment, Peng Hu will definitely see the opportunity and use the props!
Back to the subject, at this moment, in that fleeting second, the mummy swung down its arm and slapped Peng Hu's forehead hard at a speed that no one could react. At the same time, in the darkness behind, Zhao Ping's tight The finger on the shutter button suddenly pressed hard, but...
At this critical moment that decided life and death, Zhao Ping couldn't press the shutter anymore. He finally did not press the shutter. Not only did he not press the shutter, but on the contrary, he instinctively took back the finger that had pressed most of the shutter button in the following time. As for reason? The reason was not that he changed his mind and gave up the rescue, but that he suddenly realized that he did not need to rescue, or that an unexpected incident prompted him to terminate the action. After that, he stared blankly with his eyes wide open.
Yes, just now, at that elusive 0.5 seconds ago, he saw a horrifying scene that seemed similar to déjà vu:
In the lightning flash, when the mummy was about to drop its arm to kill Peng Hu, and was even a few centimeters away from crushing Peng Hu's head, a circle of light appeared, and a large round circle of red light emerged from under the mummy. , appeared out of thin air without any warning! ! !
As the red aperture suddenly appeared, above, the mummy stopped moving for an instant. He lost his movement. Not only did his body freeze in mid-air, but even the arm that was fiercely photographed seemed to be paralyzed. Next...
The mummy began to descend and retract, as if it was being pulled by some irresistible suction force and was forced to fall uncontrollably. It fell to the ground and sank into the aperture that was releasing the suction force in an extremely obvious way. The aperture first swallowed both hands. The feet, then the legs, then the abdomen and torso, until the entire head was completely wrapped. Finally, the mummy disappeared. It was completely absorbed by the aperture in just a few seconds and sank into the ground. At the same time, the mummy was waiting to be absorbed. The red halo of light that was still flashing in the queen's body also disappeared, as if it had just appeared. It went away as quickly as it came.
The result was certain. As all the apertures disappeared, the scene returned to darkness. There was only silence in the darkness, so quiet that it was almost static and deathly silent.
As someone who had witnessed the whole process up close and personal, Peng Hu was dumbfounded at this moment. He just stood there dumbfounded. Even though he did save his life by chance in the accident just now, he still stood there blankly. The only difference is that if he raised his head before, now he lowers his head and stares at the ground, staring at the smooth surface that sucked away the worm. On the ground, while watching, the flesh on his face twitched slightly, as if he was shocked.
Right in front, Peng Hu was momentarily stunned and completely shocked. How could Zhao Ping, who had also witnessed it with his own eyes, become calm? Indeed, because the accident was so weird, so weird that even though he was well-informed, the man with glasses was still stunned for a moment after watching the process. At this point, he and Peng Hu both froze in place, both dumbfounded. Although the fact was So, after all, Zhao Ping was better than Peng Hu in terms of thinking, and his understanding ability was more outstanding. As expected, he was just stunned. The next moment, Zhao Ping instinctively lowered his head to look at the watch as if he had thought of something. What he saw was... The meeting time was exactly 18 o'clock!
Ask a very simple question, that is, how are day and night specifically divided? That is, where is the intersection between the two?
The answer is simple. According to the most scientific inductive classification, since the birth of clocks, people have habitually regarded 18 o'clock as the junction point between day and night. Regardless of whether the sky turns dark or not, everything before 18 o'clock is classified as daytime, and everything after 18 o'clock is considered daytime. It belongs to the night. Unknowingly, the time came to 18 o'clock, and the sky also completely evolved from the oppressive dimness earlier to the current pitch black. Logically speaking, this is normal, and it is nothing more than an alternation of day and night that we are destined to experience every day. However, who would have thought that the mummy would suddenly disappear at this extremely ordinary junction of day and night, and be absorbed and swallowed up by the aperture that appeared out of thin air and looked exactly like the third floor magic circle no matter how you looked at it!
(What's going on? According to Kong Ling, although the Starlight Array has been following the mummy worm, isn't that thing invisible? Why is it actively showing up now? Why is it absorbing the mummy worm again? And it happens to be when time enters the night The key node of , is it a coincidence? Or is there something else fishy?)
Determine the time by observing the watch. The above are the questions that came up one after another after Zhao Ping witnessed the strange imagination. A series of doubts and problems that troubled him. Because there were too many doubts, even though he was extremely intelligent, he could not solve them in a short time. so……
After waiting for a moment and confirming that it was impossible for the mummy to appear again, Zhao Ping picked up Kong Ling and walked straight towards Peng Hu opposite him.
"who?"
Sure enough, he noticed the sound of footsteps nearby. In front of the stairs, Peng Hu, who was still looking down at the ground, trembled on the spot as if he was electrocuted and turned his head to the side. When he turned back hastily, he put his right hand into his pocket. It was obvious that he was absorbing the sound. After receiving the lesson just now, the bald man now changed his mind and started a new life. He no longer dared to be careless. However, as the figure on the other side got closer and closer, after he could see the appearance of the person clearly, Peng Hu's nervousness disappeared and was replaced by a long cry. He breathed, then put on a fearful expression and frowned and complained: "Damn it, Zhao Ping, didn't you know to say hello in advance before you came over? You just came over without saying a word, you almost scared me to death just now!" "
"Ah, Brother Peng, you, you're not dead, that's great, that's great!"
Carrying cold sweat all over his body, Peng Hu sighed and complained for the first time when he saw that the person coming was Zhao Ping. At the same time, Li Tianheng and Tang Meng, who had rolled into the back stairs earlier, finally staggered back to the scene. Originally, I was going to use the props to repel the worms and collect the body of the bald man, but when I came up, I saw that the mummy worms had disappeared, and Peng Hu, who was supposed to die, was still alive, standing in front of him alive!
Seeing that Peng Hu was safe and sound, the two of them were extremely happy. Tang Meng was okay. The girl's unique reserve made her just look happy and overall she was calm. But Li Tianheng seemed to have no regard for being reserved and calm. When they met, the young man became excited, hugged Peng Hu, and at the same time rubbed a lot of tears and snot all over the man!
"Fuck! Stop, stop, Li Tianheng, stop it, I only have this vest!" Seeing the black vest covered with snot, the bald man was shocked. He didn't care about brotherly loyalty, and hurriedly pulled Li Tianheng away violently. Of course, the above is just a small episode. In fact, at the same moment when he pulled the young man away, Peng Hu and Tang Meng had already turned their eyes and looked at the expressionless man in suit and glasses in front of them.
"Hey, what is you carrying on your back... Kong Ling? What's wrong with this girl?"
"Something happened during this period, the process is like this..."
As expected, since the two parties have known each other for a long time and already know each other well, Peng Hu, who knows the personality of the man with glasses, did not talk nonsense at all and went straight to the point. Zhao Ping did follow up and elaborated immediately. , briefly narrated the past in a long and short way, telling how he and Kong Ling met Qi not long ago, how he was captured, and the process of Kong Ling's sneak attack and rescue.
It is also worth mentioning that, logically speaking, with the bespectacled man's deeply indifferent character, there is no need for him to tell Peng Hu that the three of them had passed by earlier. After all, the matter has already passed. Instead of wasting time explaining the process, it is better to discuss what just happened. Disappeared. Seeing this, some people may want to ask, since it is completely unnecessary, why does Zhao Ping have to recount it? It's very simple, because he wants to tell Peng Hu and the others one thing in a narrative way, a terrible truth that all executors must know, that is...
The mummy is immortal. Even if it is destroyed or even wiped out to ashes, it will not be long before the opponent will be reborn again!
Unexpectedly, after Kong Ling paid the price of backlash and coma, what he got in exchange was for useless efforts. Although he saved himself, the threat of death still existed, still tightly surrounding all the executors in the castle!
"What? You, you said that the mummy was once destroyed in the soul state by Kongling? It was resurrected not long ago?" The result was exactly as expected. After listening to Zhao Ping's narration, across from him, Peng Hu, who had been secretly rejoicing just now, suddenly They were startled and shaking wildly. Li Tianheng and Tang Meng, who were also listening, also changed their expressions almost immediately when they heard the news. Especially Li Tianheng, Xu really didn't want to believe it. Before Peng Hu finished questioning, the young man looked at Zhao Ping immediately argued: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible. You have to know that this is a real space. How can a dragon be resurrected in a reality that is not even half false? What's more, even Kong Ling herself said that the mummy was burned to ashes by her with hell fire. , not only the body was reduced to ashes, but even the soul was burned away!"
Obviously, relying on his own accumulated mission experience, combined with Chen Xiaoyao's long-term indoctrination, Li Tianheng is no longer what he used to be. He is no longer the newcomer who didn't understand anything. Now he has basically understood things. He knew that the power of the locusts was all kinds of strange, and no physical attack could harm them. Even if they used supernatural props, they would only be able to repel them briefly. If he wanted to completely eliminate the locomotives, there was only one way, and that was to find a way to make the locusts fly away. , completely erasing the spiritual energy representing the locust, and only in this way will the locust truly disappear.
If that's the case, then...
Why?
With a powerful soul comparable to that of Li Ji, Kong Lingming has successfully eliminated the mummy worm using sneak attacks, but why can the mummy worm be resurrected? Just like that, he returned to the world again with his soul completely shattered! ?
