No one knew what the light door that appeared at the end was or who the tall figure carrying a spear was. Everyone simply regarded him as another practitioner.
The light gate is probably his superpower.
The army arrived and quickly dragged away the monster's corpse, but the gunfire in the city became louder and louder.
There are very few monsters that are as strong as this. Most of them are still first-class, but because of their large number, they become more and more difficult to deal with.
But at this moment, Cheng Lin no longer had any thoughts of hunting... Of course, there was only 1/5 of the spiritual energy reserve left in his body and he was not allowed to do anything else.
…
When Sun Xiao exhausted all his spiritual energy and had to run back to the pickup truck, he saw Cheng Lin leaning quietly next to the car. His coat was gone and he was only wearing a shirt.
"Cheng Lin, are you back too? I have run out of spiritual energy. Next..."
Sun Xiao gasped for breath and stopped halfway when he suddenly stopped. He noticed something unusual about the other party.
The pickup truck had already stalled.
The carriage at the back is equipped with a cargo box because of the need to load cargo.
Now that the cargo box door was ajar, Cheng Lin was leaning against the car, not speaking, just silent.
There was no sadness, no panic, not even nervousness on his face, nothing at all.
He was just in a daze, as if his mind was wandering.
"What's wrong with you? Where are your clothes? And, where is Hua Bei? Why didn't you see her?" Sun Xiao asked.
He didn't get an answer, but he suddenly felt a huge uneasiness. He sniffed and smelled the smell of blood floating in the air. It was the smell of human blood...it seemed to be coming from the cargo box.
A bad, bad thought came to mind.
He slowly reached out and opened the door of the warehouse, and then saw the girl lying on her back inside:
Her hands were folded on her chest, and she was covered with a uniform with small lapels, which covered her wounds, but could not cover the lifeless air. Her eyelids were closed, and her face was painless and calm, probably because
He died so quickly, it looked like he was sleeping.
Sun Xiao's tall body trembled, and he took two steps back. His whole brain buzzed, and he opened his mouth and looked at the figure leaning on the car as if to confirm: "Hua... Huabei... she..."
"Dead." Cheng Lin finally spoke, his voice slightly hoarse, but his tone was very calm.
It's like narrating a common thing.
In a sense, life and death are indeed common things, but the death of a stranger and the death of a friend are two completely different things.
"How...how...could..." Sun Xiao's face turned pale.
"Get in the car." Cheng Lin said.
"Where to go?" Sun Xiao tried his best to control his shaking body. He knew that now was not the time to be sad.
"pier."
"good."
Without saying any more unnecessary nonsense, the two of them closed the carriage door and got into the car. They no longer cared about the mission and just urged the soldiers to turn around and go back.
As the car drove along the street, screams could be heard in the distance outside the open window, but they had no strength to save him.
No one spoke, and there was dead silence in the car.
Until the car turned an intersection, Sun Xiao suddenly said: "I never thought that life could be so fragile."
He was referring to Huabei, and the screams he made.
Every sound means the loss of a living life in the city.
Cheng Lin listened, glanced at him, thought for a moment, and then nodded in agreement: "It is indeed very fragile, just like a flower."
"The flowers in the greenhouse cannot stop the strong wind and rain." Sun Xiao said.
"So?" Cheng Lin asked back.
"I want to go to the front line, the sea, and the battlefield." At this moment, this big boy who dreams of becoming a superhero said with a seriousness rarely seen in his life.
"But you can't protect everyone, and neither can I."
"Maybe, but the world needs heroes." Sun Xiao tightened his grip on the weapon in his hand.
Cheng Lin knew that this was a word from "Overwatch". He stared at Sun Xiao and felt that the squad leader, who had been in the same class for three years, was glowing, which made him feel a little ashamed.
Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, the soldier who had been driving silently stepped on the brakes and turned the steering wheel sharply.
The thick pickup truck suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, and then he yelled hoarsely: "What is that?!"
The soldier was looking in the direction where the car window on Cheng Lin's side was facing. He probably saw something in the rearview mirror that made him lose his composure and hurriedly stopped to observe.
Could it be that a monster is catching up?
Cheng Lin subconsciously tensed up his body, activated "Body Control", and his white shirt was stretched open by his muscles... But then, he just widened his eyes in shock.
In the gloomy steel city, on the main road where they were, a military green truck came running like a monster.
This is not the point. The point is that there are many black humanoid armors standing on the truck.
It was about two meters tall, covered with alloy and painted the purest black. It was simple and powerful in style. It stood neatly and solemnly on top of the military vehicle, approaching in the rain, carrying strong pressure.
Looks familiar...
Looks like...a puppet? Or should I say...a shining knight!
"ah!"
The soldier next to him shouted lowly, and saw that the "armor" that was standing still suddenly moved collectively!
They jumped up, jumped out of the car, and rushed in different directions. Their movements were neat, uniform, and powerful, like the accent of piano music.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Invisible stress hit my heart. Those "armors" flew over high walls with inhuman speed, even far exceeding the running speed of the elite cultivators of the major special forces, stepped over vehicles, and blew into the city like a whirlwind.
Immediately, those screams of surprise were replaced by surprise and surprise.
Cheng Lin was sitting in the car, and with the help of his sensory abilities, he could clearly see the monsters scattered everywhere being bombarded and wiped out of life.
What surprised him the most were those people wrapped in "black armor".
In the feedback from the "Hazy Eye", those armors showed no reaction and no brilliance at all. But with the fourth-grade practitioner's sensitivity to aura, Cheng Lin instinctively realized that none of these black-armored men were weaker than him!
In fact, more than half of them gave him a strong sense of threat!
It's not that those people are hostile to him, but it's similar to the instinctive vigilance between powerful creatures.
"They are practitioners!" Cheng Lin judged firmly.
Sun Xiao was stunned: "Practitioner? Which department is this person from? Why is he so strong?!"
"There is only one possibility..." Cheng Lin pursed his lips and looked solemnly, "Yisi is here!"
As soon as they finished speaking, several people suddenly felt the wind blowing up. The next second, a terrifying aura spread from the horizon, covering the entire city. The dark clouds in the sky were turbulent, countless raindrops fell, and heavy rain poured down.
The soldier driving the car felt nothing but chest tightness, but Cheng Lin immediately noticed the strength and power of the aura...
"This is... Shi Shengcun?"
Cheng Lin, who had watched the battle between the Elf King and Shi Shengcun, could easily identify the source of this aura, and was immediately horrified.
In his perception, Shi Shengcun seems to be more powerful now than in the projection.
ps: The person is not really dead, so be calm. As for the "official heroine" and the like... first of all, there is no "official heroine", and secondly, she is not the heroine. At least in my later setting of the character Hua Bei,
She's not a heroine, so I've been very stingy about writing for her, but she still plays a key role in an important plot in the later stages...
