On the other end, Gu Zheng did not interfere with the matters between them, and began to inquire carefully.
This crew member also understands the current situation, not to mention that the other party saved his life, so he naturally knows everything about it.
"What the hell is going on here."
Faced with Gu Zheng's inquiry, the crew member replied directly without any hesitation.
"This red mist is the power leaking from below. It seems that some suppressed creatures forced a breakthrough. There is no problem in itself. It was originally like this, but a mysterious power invaded some time ago. This power is different from what we usually see.
There are some differences, and the way of survival is even weirder. We are unprepared and lose consciousness unconsciously. When I wake up, I will see you. What happened in it, but I can remember it, as if I had done something.
Like a dream.”
"Senior, time is urgent now. The ship cannot stop. We must break through this layer of red mist. Otherwise, once the ship is forced to stop, the seal here will inevitably be broken with the help of its power. Then it will be terrible. Everything will be broken.
They are some powerful soul beasts without consciousness. Once they appear, all living beings will be devastated."
After the crew member finished speaking quickly, he couldn't help but plead to Gu Zheng, which gave him an inexplicable sense of déjà vu, as if he had done such a thing before when he was controlled, but this time he was extremely sober.
Gu Zheng is sure of this.
"How?"
"Go to the captain's cabin. In my memory, after we trapped these troublemakers, we headed there with some controlled companions. Now that the ship has stopped, there must be an attack there. Only the captain has the authority to
The ship is moving." The crew member said happily.
At this moment, he had no way to escape even if he wanted to. Saving the ship meant saving everyone's lives.
"You lead the way from the front, and I will protect you from behind. With so many people there, you don't have to worry about anything hurting you."
Gu Zheng just thought about it in his mind and knew how to do it. Now he obviously wanted to let the boat move. The area of this red mist was limited. It didn't seem that the other party had met him once or twice. It was just that there were some surprises this time.
cause such consequences.
The crew member did not hesitate to start at the intersection, turned right, and began to speed up to lead the way. He was also in the late stage of Tianxian cultivation, so he was not without the ability to fight back. He even felt that he did not need to take action, as a group of seniors behind him would help him solve the problem.
There will be troubles along the way.
The conversation between Gu Zheng and him just now was not concealed. Although the others were also discussing with each other, they actually paid attention here and heard their conversation. Seeing this, they also followed behind.
After just walking around a few places, I saw the body of a crew member. Originally, if they died, their bodies would disappear and return to heaven and earth, but this corpse stood stiff and stiff, with countless green buds opening outside the body.
His own consciousness is gone, and his body is used as a container by the other party.
Their arrival caused these green buds to shake off their bodies one after another, and when they landed on the ground, they turned into puppet tree figures about the size of a child and a half. They were like small human-shaped trees, flapping their slender branches and attacking towards them. However, because
He hasn't fully grown yet, so his strength is only a little stronger than ordinary ghost cultivators.
Without using any moves from behind, the crew members would crush each other under their feet three times and five times. Finally, when they came to their companions, they would directly crush the opponent's body with one palm, completely liberating their companions.
"The other party has successfully prevented the other party's control, but his consciousness is dead and his body is being used by the other party." The crew member said with some nostalgia.
"Some traces were found here, they seem to be the people in the first cabin." At this time, other people also discovered the transformed room next to them. They went in and took a look, and found that it was in a mess with traces of fighting, so they speculated.
"Maybe, but it looks like their end is not good. It's such a pity that we came a step too late." Tiancheng expressed regret on the side. If he had come earlier, he might have had more strength.
"We'd better leave quickly, otherwise we may follow in their footsteps." A companion said.
Everyone started to leave again. At this time, they could clearly feel that the sky was different. Even the things above their heads turned dark red, as if the sun was setting in the west, making everyone's hearts feel a little heavy.
Fortunately nothing else happened along the way, and we followed the other party very smoothly to the top, where the captain controlled the ship.
Before they even got there, they could hear the sound of fighting coming from above. The group of people approached cautiously and found that many crew members had been controlled and were attacking the only room standing high up, while a layer of toughness
The shield has been raised, but there is no counterattack inside, which is a bit strange.
"Most of the crew members are under control, what should we do?" the crew member asked quietly.
"What else can we do? Of course, go straight to it. Your companion is very weak. We can perfectly control the other party, but the other party cannot have only this strength." Cun Tou said from the side.
"That's right, half of us will go out first, and the remaining half will hide here, waiting for the other party to come out, so as not to be attacked by the other party." Tian Cheng also thought it was good, and immediately agreed.
Soon, half of the people, led by the crew, rushed directly towards the out-of-control companions, while the others continued to hide here.
"Captain, look, the passengers below are coming to support you."
In the house above, they were also busy, trying to call for support, and suppressing some companions who were not seriously injured to calm them down. At this time, the deputy heard a strange noise outside, and when he looked outside, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The captain put down the things in his hands and looked out as well. He found that the attacking passengers had subdued all the crew members and tied them aside. One of the crew members was coming towards him.
"How did the other party come out? It's a bit suspicious. Wait a minute." Everything seemed to be normal, but the captain still said steadily.
Things happened so suddenly that he didn't even have time to order help from below, and the whole line went out of control. This place was also attacked. You must know that unless the cabin is opened from the outside, it is almost impossible to get out from the inside.
"That's right, but it doesn't look like the other party. It's very difficult for the other party to control our crew, let alone those masters." The deputy nodded, but he was a little confused.
In fact, there were so many masters this time, and they did it on purpose. They had originally planned to ask the other party to help if there was a crisis. This is true for every ship, but it has never been used before. It is just for safety reasons.
Every familiar face.
They didn't know that when a problem occurred, a crew member had already opened the first gate according to the training instructions and successfully brought the other party out. However, he was controlled halfway and led the other party directly into the trap.
It was not a trap, but a black hand that alerted Tiancheng and the others. As a result, the whole army was wiped out, and the opponent was also seriously injured. It could also clearly feel that there were some very powerful helpers, and it didn't know if they could get out.
, so he decided to step into the trap and defeat them one by one, and then controlled some crew members to lure them into the trap, but he did not expect to release a group of monsters.
Of course, this is under the premise that there is no ancient dispute, and all the plans are so perfect. Even if they cannot be killed, they can still be delayed for enough time, no matter how they make a profit.
It's a pity that the success has fallen short. Seeing that the other party is about to gather together, the mastermind behind the scenes can't help but jump on. Once the other party is allowed to launch the big ship, there will be no foothold.
So before the crew here came close to say hello to their captain, they found that their figures had already flown back, and where they had been, a strange tree with a strange shape appeared in front of everyone. It should be said that
It has a tree trunk that looks like a human being.
There are no legs on the lower part, just like a section sawed off a tree. On the upper part, there are arms formed by six pairs of branches. There are three finger-like tree bridges at the end, and the whole head is a wooden ball, including the mouth and eyes.
None, it looks strange but feels clumsy.
However, everyone was shocked when he appeared. His aura was that of a real Golden Immortal. The only good news was that there were various scars on the opponent's body, and it was obvious that he had gone through a fierce battle before.
At the same time as he appeared, in addition to Gu Zheng, other people also came out one after another, forming a flanking attack from both sides, looking at each other eagerly.
Although the opponent is strong, they have a numerical advantage and there are experts with matching strength. In their opinion, the chance of winning is very high.
Gu: "Captain, it seems that he is really one of our own, and he is saved now." The deputy saw clearly from above and said happily.
"Yeah, there's still enough time for us to escape." The captain could finally breathe a sigh of relief. No matter what he asked, the other party's coming out was good news for him, especially since he couldn't contact anyone outside.
When the two people's attention was attracted by the outside, they did not notice that a seriously disturbed crew member in the room had stood up expressionlessly. However, he did not attack them, but helped others one by one to remove the poison from each other's body.
Interfering with the power, four mildly ill people were quickly infected by the other party and continued to transform rapidly.
"Captain, do you feel something is wrong? I feel a little cold." The deputy suddenly said.
"I feel the same way. It's strange. Could the opponent's strength still threaten us?" The captain also looked at him in surprise and then said.
"I don't know. Let me see if our captain is careful. All of them have been transformed."
The deputy turned his head to see what was going on behind him, and discovered something that surprised him. The other party was rushing towards him, very close to him. He only had time to shout, but the captain only had time to turn his head, and saw five bodies rushing in front of him.
They swarmed towards him.
There is no way to hide, there is no way to avoid it!
The captain's mind suddenly went blank. He even thought that after his death, there would be no one to control the ship. The other side would also find out about his death and send people over again. But how could he forget that there was a damn deputy behind him?
It wasn't because he neglected his duties, how could he have died? If he hadn't died, he would have asked his superiors to replace him.
After a while, the captain realized that he was fine. He took a closer look and saw that the members who had jumped towards him were already lying on the ground. His deputy hurriedly repositioned them, but there was a strange man beside him, looking towards him.
Outside.
"Senior, you saved me?" the captain asked carefully, and he was extremely surprised in his heart, because the outer layer of defense seemed weak, but in fact the defense was very strong, even if it met the peak of the Golden Immortal, it could block a person.
Yes, but it consumes a lot of energy. Even if the enemy is an ordinary ghost cultivator, it still requires a huge amount of strength to maintain.
But the other party came in quietly without even being blocked by the surrounding defenses. It would be simply terrifying, if this was the enemy.
Thinking of this, the captain broke into cold sweat.
"What's wrong with you? Are you still mentally injured?" Gu Zheng nodded, and then looked at the other person's face, and there was a stream of black energy coming out, like a waterfall. He was curious to explore it, but in addition to finding that the other person was nervous because of what just happened
Some, there are no hidden dangers.
"No, I'm just worried that now, by driving the other party away, I can safely control the ship and start taking action, and I also need the crew to check the damage everywhere."
Only then did the captain realize that the other party was a friend rather than an enemy. There was still a slight fluctuation in the other party. He knew at a glance that he was a passenger on this ship. This made him feel relieved and found a decent excuse.
"There's no need to check outside. The other party doesn't have time to destroy anything. Let's move the ship quickly." Gu Zheng said firmly to him based on the scars on the wooden man below and what happened before.
"That's good. If I am alone, the maximum speed is only 50%, which is enough." The captain chose to believe Gu Zheng and sat directly in his seat. A mini boat automatically floated out from under the floor.
However, this small boat only has a shape. It is used to control the big ship, and it is a specific magic weapon in itself.
Gu Zheng looked down. Tiancheng and the others were already fighting with the wooden man. A group of people were surrounding each other. On the scene, it seemed that the other side had the upper hand. Mainly relying on their body's invulnerability, they were running rampant among the crowd, jumping and chasing the enemy.
, every time it landed on the ship, there was a huge collision, which looked extremely powerful, and it was suspected that the floor below could not withstand the opponent's attack.
Obviously, the strength of the big ship is very good, even better than that of the wooden man. They are having a lively fight here, but there are few damaged places around.
The wooden man's only wisdom allowed the opponent to distinguish who to kill and chase the person closest to him alive, but the opponent did not fight him at all. In addition, the field was huge, and his only long-range attack was
The body shoots out wooden thorns one after another, or the arms are extended and used as long whip attacks, and there is not much change after tossing and turning.
Apart from the initial embarrassment, now they have firmly grasped the initiative. If this continues, sooner or later the wooden man will be dismantled into a pile of wood.
"The ship is about to start, please be careful." The deputy here also came out very kindly, shouted to them to remind them, and then went in again. This time he had to keep a close eye on those people and never let them go.
Interfering with the captain.
After his prompting, as the big ship swayed suddenly, they quickly stabilized their bodies and were not affected. On the contrary, the wooden man was unsteady and fell down. Naturally, the others would not let this good person go.
Chance, a burst of indiscriminate bombardment made Gu Zheng wonder if the wooden man on the ship was not dead yet, and they had torn a big hole here first.
Gu Zheng was a little overthinking. This burst of indiscriminate bombing was extremely effective. The opponent lost two arms, and the wounds on his body looked even more terrifying. Fortunately, the opponent was made of wood. If it were a human, it would have been damaged.
Being split in half.
As the ship started, its speed gradually increased. Most of the red mist that originally invaded was forced out. The wooden men below were not as strong as they were at the beginning. Now they only have the remaining strength to defend. It seems that the crisis is about to be resolved.
"In one more time, we will rush through this red mist area, and there will be no danger below." The captain also let out a sigh of relief at this time and said to Gu Zheng next to him.
He didn't know why he took the initiative to tell the other person, but as soon as the other person stood there, there was an invisible pressure, just like the superior he had seen before, making him a little breathless.
"Then the red mist will continue to be on this route in the future?" Gu Zheng turned his eyes and looked at each other.
"No, we have specialized detection personnel outside. The other party told me last time that as long as the other party appears once, we will be sure to find the loopholes and solve these problems. Maybe we already know the solution now and are waiting for us.
Leave, so as not to accidentally hurt us." The captain explained with a smile, even he couldn't help but say this secret that only he knew.
After saying that, he suddenly regretted it, because according to the regulations, this kind of thing cannot be told to others. Once discovered, his position will not be included, and he will be severely punished. This is the rule that was agreed upon at the beginning.
, who made it impossible for him to refuse the conditions offered by the other party.
"Thanks to your help this time, but please don't tell anyone about this kind of thing for at least half a year." The captain hesitated and looked at the deputy behind him from the corner of his eye. The other person didn't seem to hear at all and was still taking care of the crew.
After breathing a sigh of relief, he said to Gu Zheng.
"Don't worry, I won't talk too much. Besides, I have no interest in this place. If I wanted to know, I would know more details than you."
The captain didn't quite understand what Gu Zheng said, but he knew that this time was over, and he had to remember not to make any more mistakes. Besides, if the other party told him, he would be in trouble. He was sure that the other party would keep the secret, and it would only take half a year.
In the end, it doesn't matter if it takes shape here.
"That's even better. I have to concentrate on controlling the ship and not to be stopped by the other party again, otherwise we will die together with them and go down to be company." The captain joked, and then continued to control the ship and shuttled through the thick fog.
This is a safe passage that he has walked countless times. Even if everything nearby collapses, it is absolutely safe. In other words, he is just walking in the formation.
But just after he finished speaking, like a crow's beak that opened up, a thick rattan about three feet suddenly burst out from under the water. Along with the spring water in the sky, it flashed in the air and shot directly into the water below.
Inside the wooden man's head.
At this time, the wooden man was almost about to be dismantled. As the rattan entered the wooden man's body, the wood recovered almost in the blink of an eye, and a huge aura erupted from his body, sweeping across the wilderness, overwhelming Tiancheng and the others who were wary of the drops of water from the underworld.
, they all flew out one after another.
The next moment, the wooden man's body quickly transformed, with only one pair of arms left. He looked like a normal person, including the wooden pillar below, which also transformed into two legs. The round head with five sides, except for the ears, were all transformed.
.
At this moment, a wooden man who was similar to ordinary people appeared in front of them again, but the rattan above his head was still inserted inside, turning the wooden man into a puppet manipulated below.
The aura on his body continued to rise, and finally he almost reached the critical point before he stopped.
