With the blessing of fireflies, Li Huixi could quickly escape from the city even with a star boat, but as she said, where could she escape in such a big world.
Through the analysis of the female brain, the fox discovered that humans are just carriers in the reproduction process of fireflies, just like iron worms controlling mantises to approach water sources. The obsession to find one-shot death is not the will of humans, but fireflies. Just for the convenience of breeding.
If you want to change a person back to his original state, you can only peel the fireflies out of the body, but the number of parasitic fireflies is even measured in hundreds of millions, so it is impossible to kill them one by one.
The fox's voice sounded again, this time bringing a way to defeat "The Fool".
"Have you discovered it? Not only will the fireflies increase their strength, agility, reaction, and insight excessively, but the host's shortcomings will also be magnified many times. As for the weaknesses of the group of people you are going to face next, just ask Ask the Xingzhou around you."
Li Huixi paused for a moment and asked a question that surprised the fox:
"Do you have any way... to prevent them from dying?"
The fox replied coldly:
"No, after being parasitized by fireflies, if it exceeds the reproduction threshold, it will lose its consciousness and cannot be saved."
This sentence was not only heard by Li Huixi, but also by Xingzhou standing next to her. The purpose was to cut off Xingzhou's childish thoughts.
As for Li Huixi, the fox did not expect that Li Huixi would retain such a trace of sympathy and think about the lives of the "fools". It seems that some of Li Huixi's hidden things were also amplified by the fireflies. .
The soldiers of the coalition forces were not to be feared. The real threat was the group of "fools". Their personal strength had long surpassed that of humans. Once they took action, Li Huixi knew that she had little chance of winning.
The only way was to defeat them one by one. Li Huixi took Xingzhou and climbed up to the tower that Zhu Ye loved most. From here, he could overlook the entire city. The army composed of the coalition forces and "The Fool" were breaking in together. There is not much world left for the two of them.
"Xingzhou, are you willing to help me?"
Xingzhou nodded, but he didn't know how he could help. He looked at Li Huixi with doubts in his eyes.
"I need you to tell me about those fools."
Li Huixi explained.
Xingzhou looked down and quickly identified the "Fools" through their clothing. After carefully counting them for a while, he found that the number of "Fools" was running low, with only about a dozen people now.
But after all, Xingzhou is from the same clan as them, and he definitely doesn't want to see Li Huixi kill them, but if Li Huixi dies, there will be no one to help him take revenge. Xingzhou's heart was very complicated. Looking at the group of tribesmen downstairs who had lost their minds and just wanted to die happily, after much hesitation, he still chose to believe Li Huixi.
How could Li Huixi not understand what the child was hesitating about? But could an empty shell that had been taken over by bugs still be called a human?
The ending of wanting to die was planted as early as the moment they were born in Yuanchu Lake, and Zhu Ye only shortened the length of their lives.
As soon as the two were ready to fight, a "Fool" broke into the tower, giving the two the opportunity to cooperate for the first time.
Xingzhou recognized the clansman in front of him at a glance and said to Li Huixi:
"He went to the mountains to collect herbs before and broke his left leg. Will this weakness be magnified?"
"You'll know if you try it or not."
With that said, Li Huixi jumped down from a building more than ten meters high and landed smoothly. The "fool" didn't say a word. After seeing Li Huixi's face clearly, he launched a fierce attack.
After a brief exchange, Li Huixi discovered that the man's eyes had been completely occupied by the blue light belonging to fireflies.
Fortunately, with the information provided by Xingzhou, Li Huixi had been deliberately attacking the opponent's left leg. After dodging two punches from the opponent, Li Huixi also successfully hit the left leg.
A crisp sound of fractures reached Xingzhou's ears upstairs, and he understood that from this point on, this fellow member of the same clan would meet his end.
As soon as he fell down, the "Fool" screamed. Li Huixi understood that the fireflies amplified his pain. In order to prevent him from continuing to suffer, Li Huixi turned around and looked at Xingzhou. After getting the other party's acquiescence, we got to know the other party cleanly.
However, his body was almost undamaged, and the fireflies in his body were unable to participate in the reproduction cycle. This was the last trace of dignity that Li Huixi retained for the deceased.
With the first cooperation, the shackles in Xingzhou's heart were gradually opened. With the information provided by Xingzhou, the two of them also successfully defeated dozens of "fools". Only the last few people were left, who were killed by Zhu Ye. They gathered together and prepared to find Li Huixi for a fierce battle.
Fortunately, the sky at this time finally ushered in its normal night, with the moon hanging high and the stars laughing loudly.
Li Huixi also realized that her actions during the day were a bit too hasty. Even if she defeated them one by one, she had to take her time. Now that the remaining "Fools" have gathered, it may be difficult to deal with them next.
Fortunately, this city is quite big, so the two of them hid in a common man's warehouse. Because the emperor's uncle left at the beginning, this family moved away together with the army, and everything they could move was moved away. There is still some forgotten dry food in this warehouse, but the quantity is too small.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
Xingzhou took the dry food from Li Huixi. Although he wanted to shirk it, his squirming stomach wouldn't allow it.
"I have already eaten."
Li Huixi replied calmly, but she did not lie. She had long expected that there would be a day when she would not be able to eat. She also met many coalition soldiers who were looking for them along the way. However, Li Huixi could not tell Xingzhou that she It was their flesh that was eaten.
"By the way, can you tell me about your world? How did you get here?"
"Well... that Lin Qing flooded the school, so we came here..."
"Well, your story-telling ability is so bad, it's far behind mom."
"You have to know that I don't have the same maternal love as your mother."
"I know, but she would protect me like this when I was little. I miss her so much."
Li Huixi knew that if she continued to talk about this topic, she would not know what to say, so she did not respond.
The basement was very dark, and there was only the smell of earth around it, and there was not much air circulation. Xingzhou suddenly stared at Li Huixi's face for a long time, but never said a word.
Being stared at like this, Li Huixi felt a little uncomfortable, so she asked Xingzhou impatiently:
"What are you looking at?"
Xingzhou was a smart kid. He immediately noticed the smell of gunpowder in his words, so he retracted his head angrily and said in an innocent tone:
"Nothing...just your eyes."
"What's wrong with my eyes?"
"It seemed to be glowing."
"The radiance of maternal love?"
"No, it's the blue light of fireflies."
Cold sweat broke out on Li Huixi's back, because the eyes of all the "Fools" he had fought with during the day were filled with the blue light of fireflies. In other words, only those who have the number of fireflies in their bodies reaching the reproduction threshold will have this kind of condition. Phenomenon.
"Did I use too much firefly power today..."
"Do you remember Xingzhou's brother?"
"Remember."
"He was struck to death by Zhu Ye with lightning just after he fought with you."
"Are you saying that excessive use of the power given by fireflies will be beneficial to their growth?"
"This should be."
Different from usual, this time Li Huixi's voice was joined by the voice of a fox. She talked to her through the fireflies in Li Huixi's body.
"You guessed it right. Compared to the daytime, the number of fireflies in your body has doubled now. If this continues, you will also be controlled by fireflies."
"How much time do I have?"
"About three days. If we can't solve all this in three days, I'm afraid we won't have another chance."
Li Huixi let out a long sigh. In fact, she herself felt that the longer the battle lasted, the more serious the changes in her body would be.
