In all directions, the cries of jungle zombies echoed.
And Su Ran has become accustomed to this.
After experiencing zombie herding, in his eyes, these little zombies are already a walking group of experienced ones.
"Lao Xia, I will never give up the best pioneer team to you again this time."
"Old thief Jiang Chong, stop having such wishful thinking. When did you not say so?"
At the front of the team, Xia Xun and Jiang Chong started a verbal battle again.
And Pan Jie had the words "I don't know these two people" written all over her face.
Today is indeed an extraordinary day.
No one expected that in their lifetime, they would actually see Hawkeye, Chuyun, Muying, and the three giants of Beijian City form an alliance.
After joining forces, this team's marching efficiency was as fast as lightning, and they soon left other no-name development teams far behind.
On the way, many pioneering groups did not even make it to the necropolis. They encountered a zombie wave of other zombie herders midway and were outnumbered and chose to retreat.
At dusk.
The team was temporarily stationed beside a stream.
"The cemetery is not far away. From the looks of it, only our three teams can get there in time before dark," Xia Xun said.
"Lao Xia, Lao Xia, I never thought that after a few years, we would join forces again." Jiang Chong pretended to be relaxed and said, "Every time I thought you were going to die, you actually lived well.
, it’s really a twist of fate.”
The two rough gentlemen had a lively chat, and even took out two bottles of thorn fruit wine and started drinking each other.
Pan Jie's face looked a little worried.
After being silent for a while, she finally said: "I feel something is not right."
"How do you say it?" Xia Xun and Jiang Chong said in unison.
"I seem to have been to this area before."
Pan Jie looked a little nervous,
"And it's quite impressive because it was just two years ago."
"At that time, our Eagle Eye Group also encountered such a tide of corpses in a jungle spiritual realm in Yongchuan City."
"Are you sure you remember correctly?" Xia Xun's expression became serious.
"I am sure."
Pan Jie shook her head and whispered,
"Exactly the same environment, the same screams, the same jungle zombies and herding zombies... It's like the scene is reappearing."
"The Dark Screaming Ruins are most likely the area I visited two years ago."
Xia Xun and Jiang Chong were silent, but drank in silence.
But they already have some idea in their hearts.
Because what Pan Jie said is possible, although the probability is not high.
Turbulence in different dimensions.
When this kind of turbulence occurs, the spiritual realms in many areas will be separated, overlapped or connected inexplicably.
In other words, they are still in Beijian City at this moment, but if something unexpected happens, they are likely to be dragged to Kyoto, Siberia, or even the spiritual realm within the Arctic Circle.
"In that case, shouldn't you be more familiar with the environment here?" Jiang Chong said, "Why do you seem more nervous?"
"..."
Pan Jie fell into a long silence again.
"A year ago, I was not the leader of the Hawkeye Regiment."
"At that time, we encountered an extremely terrifying zombie wave there. Those zombies were running rampant, and our army was unable to resist at all."
"During the retreat, most of the members of the legion were killed, and even our regiment commander was not spared."
"After that, I took over the position of group leader."
silence.
Deathly silence.
The glory of the Hawkeye Corps back then was even comparable to Dusk Shadow and Chuyun, but both of them were almost destroyed by the regiment.
What kind of horrific disaster is this?
"...So?" Jiang Chongdao, "Should we continue? Or should we notify the Alliance Army first?"
"Don't think about it, the alliance troops have been transferred to the border recently."
Xia Xundao,
“Compared to what’s happening over the border, what we do here is nothing but trivial matters.”
"Before, the alliance troops came to support us just for the sake of brother Gao Shou."
"I've heard about this before." Jiang Chong murmured, "I didn't expect that kid to be a big boss with a backing..."
"Let's retreat." Pan Jie suddenly said.
The two were slightly startled.
"I don't dare to face..."
"The scene of that day is still vivid in my mind..."
Pan Jie's voice was a little trembling,
"I admit, I'm scared."
"I always have a premonition that history will repeat itself."
"I am no longer young, and I am still the leader of the regiment. I can no longer risk the lives of my subordinates."
Jiang Chong said nothing and silently lit a cigarette and started smoking.
Xia Xun looked up at the sky and sighed softly:
"Who isn't?"
"When I was young, I also wanted to be an awesome pioneer, and I also wanted to break through the mortal level, and then awaken and become a great sword shadow!"
"But how can anything be so easy in the world?"
"Those sword shadows from the Alliance Army have spent their whole lives in the spiritual realm, and have had fewer moments of fighting with the God of Death than we have?"
"There are probably not many people who come here today who are not afraid of death."
"But they came after all, didn't they?"
"I might be a little bit biased when I say that."
"But I always feel that in this life..."
"There must be something you particularly want to do, right?"
"Otherwise, this hurried life would be so boring..."
The three of them were silent.
Night gradually falls.
"Woooooooo..."
Countless wailing sounds floated from afar, intertwining into a wave of sound that was terrifying.
Jiang Chong threw away the cigarette butt: "This is the direction of the cemetery!"
Finally, the three of them stood up in unison.
The team is also moving towards the final goal.
…
Necropolis.
Desolate and gloomy, overgrown with tombstones and weeds.
Su Ran had only seen scenes like this in horror and science fiction films.
Unexpectedly, today, he would actually be there.
The team killed all the active jungle zombies outside and then successfully entered this area.
But to everyone's surprise, there were no living creatures inside.
There's just this big, scary abandoned cemetery.
There were also whining sounds echoing from all directions.
The true "Dark Screaming Ruins"!
"Keep the formation moving forward!"
"Be alert to your surroundings!"
"Pay attention to protect the back row!"
Su Ran was in the center of the team, listening to the continuous orders from the three captains, and gradually felt a little nervous inside.
This area is really too depressing.
Soon, under the leadership of the spiritual power detector, the team arrived at the center of the necropolis.
appeared before them.
It is an extremely large tombstone, nearly five meters tall.
"Tombstone?" Jiang Chong was stunned.
"No." Pan Jie saw something strange at a glance, "It's not just a tombstone... it's a whole piece of holy stone."
Holy stone.
An ore formed in an environment rich in light attributes, it also contains rich spiritual power of light attributes.
However, the Dark Screaming Ruin they are now in is an area filled with dark attributes!
The appearance of this holy stone can be said to be very unexpected and completely out of place!
Therefore, it must have been moved here by humans.
"Seal?" The three people had surprisingly the same idea.
really.
Light and darkness are in conflict with each other.
This holy stone is placed here. Apart from being used to seal certain creatures with dark attributes, I really can't think of any other reasonable reason for its existence.
And under normal circumstances, Shengmingshi is crystal clear and pure white, and even has a slightly transparent texture.
But the large piece in front of it has lost its luster and has become dim and gray.
This shows that the light attribute spiritual power contained in it has long been exhausted.
Unknowingly.
A full moon slowly climbed into the night sky.
"Click."
A crack suddenly exploded on the Holy Bright Stone.
