Chapter 269 Crisis in the thick fog(1/2)
I misunderstood two things:
1. Monsters that combine evil body cultivation and obsession are not in the same camp as the mountain ghosts.
Second, the mission of the mountain ghost camp is not necessarily to prevent the mountain god camp from obtaining the "Heart of the Forest".
The second point is based on the first point. According to the difficulty balance, the Lost City is the territory of the Mountain Ghost camp, and the advantage lies with the opponent.
Then, the monster and the mountain ghost camp must be in the same camp.
But now it seems that "Justice in the Knife" obviously died at the hands of a monster. From this, it can be inferred that the mountain ghost camp also has a mission similar to the mountain god camp-get something from the monster!
Zhang Yuanqing informed his companions of his speculation.
The soldier crossing the river supported his chin with two fingers and analyzed:
"The mission of the mountain ghost camp will also be to obtain the heart of the forest. The two teams will compete to see who can kill the evil cultivator first."
Zhao Chenghuang shook his head:
"It's not that simple. If the two sides are fighting for the heart of the forest, the mission introduction does not need to be so complicated. The world will return to fire, what do you think?"
Tian Xia Gui Huo looked solemn:
"Our mission is to obtain the heart of the forest and strengthen the seal. So, since we are a hostile camp, think about it boldly. Will the mission of the Mountain Ghost camp be to complete the sacrificial ceremony and summon the supreme being in the bleeding pool?
"Based on the fact that the monster attacked the mountain ghost camp, we can deduce that the mountain ghost camp also needs to obtain something from the monster. As opposed to the heart of the forest, that thing can complete the sacrificial ceremony."
The little match seller was taken aback and retorted loudly:
"impossible!
"If the thing in the mural comes, we will definitely die. This is simply not something we can contend with."
The world returns to fire and sneers:
"It sounds like if we get the Heart of the Forest and strengthen the seal, the mountain ghost camp can survive. The Lost City is the last level and the most difficult. After we complete the task of strengthening the seal, aren't there any rewards?
"The reward must match the thing in the blood pool. It may be the Mountain God Staff. How many of the mountain ghost camp do you think can survive?"
The little match seller was speechless.
Guan Ya stood still, holding a large-caliber pistol in her right hand, her arm hanging naturally against her thin waist, her left hand pinching her waist, and she analyzed:
"The deceased was almost killed instantly, and he was not a lone traveler. He could kill a strong man with good strength among the strong men in the mountain ghost camp. The strength of this monster is truly level four.
"If you want to hunt it, you have to be mentally prepared to sacrifice half of the people, and we have to face the mountain ghost camp."
As a qualified scout, spying on intelligence and analyzing the situation are essential qualities.
Maoshan Warlock interrupted and said:
"We can divert the trouble eastward and let the mountain ghost camp solve it."
Guan Ya said "ha", "What a smart young man. The Mountain Ghost camp thinks so too."
The Maoshan Warlock could not hear her sarcasm. He snorted coldly and did not respond. He looked at Zhao Chenghuang and asked:
"So what do we do now?"
After the words fell, a loud "bang" answered his question.
Everyone looked around and saw a tall, plump-breasted mixed-race beauty raising a gun and shooting a wild deer more than ten meters away.
Somewhere in the city, in an abandoned factory, a building covered with vines.
There are no taboos, Ah Yi, I am the only one, and the other twenty-one people, holding their breath and concentrating, stood against the wall. Everyone was like a frightened bird, listening vigilantly to what was going on outside.
If you observe carefully, you will find that the "color" of these people is different from the surrounding scenery. The color of their bodies is extremely dim, as if they are covered with a dark curtain.
After a long time, Baiwuji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Very good, that ghost didn't catch up with me."
Jiuluoyu asked: "Then can I remove the props?"
Bai Wu Tao shook his head:
"No! We have been marked by that monster. It is difficult to remove the mark of the bewitching monster. At least we do not have this method. Once you remove the prop, it will immediately sense us."
Not long ago, they were attacked by a monster. Zheng Zheng was killed on the spot by a knife, without even a chance to resist.
Everyone in the mountain ghost camp was frightened and retreated immediately. However, the monster locked onto them and pursued them closely.
In the end, Jiuluoyu took out a prop called the "Night Tour Cloak" and covered everyone, thus getting rid of the monster's pursuit.
This prop is derived from the Night Wandering God profession and has the function of concealing the breath, which is equivalent to the Night Wandering Skill of the Night Wandering God.
But the price is that you can't move.
Kou Beiyue said dissatisfied:
"Do we have to keep wearing props? We have to find a way."
The younger brother next to me laughed and said:
"There's no need to worry, as long as we hide it well, it means victory.
"If the monster can't find us, it will naturally look for people from the mountain god camp. Let's just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. Now, keep an eye on the standings and wait for the killing feast to begin."
Hongwei shouted:
"Although this is a good strategy, I always feel that it is not practical. There are geniuses such as Yuanshi Tianzun and Zhao Chenghuang in the mountain god camp."
The whole world hummed in vain:
"This is typical of you. I'm afraid of being beaten by Yuanshi Tianzun."
"what are you doing?"
Maoshan Warlock glared at Guan Ya and scolded: "You think we are too safe, right? What if we attract monsters?"
People from the mountain ghost camp just lost a member nearby, so the monster is probably nearby.
The long-legged old driver smiled and said:
"What am I going to do? Of course, it's to give a little boy like you, who is five centimeters and three seconds, a head-turning deer to replenish his body."
What kind of female hooligan is this?! Maoshan Warlock's face turned red and he was speechless for a moment. As a leader of the Taiyi sect, he couldn't keep his face down and exchanged obscene words with this female hooligan in full view of the public.
Zhang Yuanqing's heart moved and he understood Lao Siji's intention:
"You want to lure the monster out, observe it from a distance, and collect intelligence?"
Guan Ya nodded slightly:
"That monster is a bewitching demon, and bewitching demons are bloodthirsty, and the smell of blood can lure it out. Instead of wandering around in the ruins and being suddenly attacked, it is the best choice to actively lure the enemy out and observe the enemy.
"In addition, if it is really attracted by the smell of blood, it proves that the mountain ghost camp has got rid of it."
While she was talking, she shot and killed the black-backed dog that was trying to eat the wild deer.
Immediately, Zhang Yuanqing left behind the stunningly beautiful Yin Corpse Blood Rose and asked her to squat in the nearby grass to observe, while he led his team away from the place.
The Night Wandering Gods of the Taiyi Sect followed suit and also left the Inferi to serve as surveillance probes.
After walking a few hundred meters, the group stopped and sat on the grassy path to rest and wait for the results.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Yuanqing, whose will came to the Blood Rose Sea of Consciousness, saw a pale thick fog floating from the depths of the city at an extremely fast speed, covering the weeds, dilapidated buildings, and abandoned buildings.
The vehicle submerged the carcasses of the three animals.
The thick fog then solidified and became suspended. Soon, Blood Rose (Zhang Yuanqing) in the distance heard the sound of crushing bones and chewing flesh and blood coming from the thick fog.
Sure enough, it was a mist lord with a strong bloodthirsty instinct, but why didn't it eat the corpse of "Justice in the Knife"? Is it because of the poison of the witch and Gu master?
Zhang Yuanqing felt a little shuddered in his heart. The level 4 bewitching demon's combat power is not that of a tree king, but can be compared to a monkey king. He is a real big boss. Killing Chaofan is like chopping melons and vegetables.
Unfortunately, the thick fog obscured the appearance of the monster, making it impossible to tell whether it was a walking corpse with low IQ or a spiritual being.
If it is the latter, the risk factor is even higher.
Soon, the sound of chewing in the thick fog disappeared, and the pale and thick fog receded like a tide.
Zhang Yuanqing waited for a moment, until the thick fog retreated deep into the city and disappeared from sight, then he controlled Blood Rose to get up, and walked towards the corpses of the three animals amidst the rustling of weeds.
There were only bloodstains on the ground, as well as bits of flesh and bones that had been chewed into pieces.
Even the heads of dogs and deer were chewed to pieces.
The eight Yin corpses from Taiyi Sect immediately surrounded them to check the situation.
“It’s disgusting, eating so cleanly”
Sun Miaomiao's Yin Corpse said.
"What, you want to take a few bites too?" Blood Rose sneered.
Zhao Chenghuang’s Level 4 Yin Corpse said in a deep voice:
"As Guan Ya guessed, the monster is level 4, and it seems to have retained some of its abilities in life. Unfortunately, it's hard to see clearly, so it's impossible to evaluate its intelligence."
Zhang Yuanqing listened silently and said:
"Let's go back!"
On the way back to the Inferi, everyone was already discussing countermeasures.
