Volume 2: The Growing Flame Chapter 124: The Red Moon Retreats and the Mutation Comes
Over an hour ago,
boom--
Xing Jinglei fell from mid-air, cracked the ground with a punch, and kicked away all the cultists in front of him with a sweeping kick.
No matter ordinary believers, gray-robed believers, or even black-robed believers, they are no match for him.
Every punch he landed crushed the bodies of these enemies.
And Xing Jinglei hardly needed to dodge.
He was wearing only the lowest-grade and cheapest combat uniform. The sharp nails of the Red Moon Cultists pierced through the protection of the combat uniform, but could not pierce his bronze skin that was as hard as steel.
It just made a crisp sound of metal clashing.
Xing Jinglei laughed loudly and punched out.
The Xinhuo warriors such as Shanxiong, Daohun and others who were with him were also charging forward.
In just a moment, the group of cultists in front of them were eradicated.
Taking advantage of the break, Xing Jinglei glanced at the task interface, where he could accept tasks and also displayed a map of the entire Fog City for strategic planning.
No matter which team, they can mark their discoveries on the map.
Very convenient.
Xing Jinglei marked "eliminated" at his coordinates, and then found an exclamation mark for the task.
"Sowing seeds of thorns?"
"What mission?"
"Boss, it seems that these seeds are the ones we put in our supply backpacks."
"Bury it, bury it."
Xing Jinglei waved his hand and used his evil tracking skill to observe the flow of energy under the red moon.
Suddenly, Ding Dong's task reminder popped up again.
[War Mission: Plant thorn seeds in 37 areas including 101, 104, 139, 148, and 195, and cover them with a layer of special soil.]
[Note: This task has a higher priority, please complete it as soon as possible.]
Xing Jinglei was stunned, with veins popping out on his forehead.
He was a senior member of Xinhuo, a world-class warrior, and the Shattering Fist Martial Saint, but he actually... wanted him to change his job to a gardener?!
How outrageous!
"Let's go and bury these seeds quickly."
…
boom!
boom!
boom!
One after another, thick, thorny vines broke through the ground, growing wildly and absorbing all the nutrients from the surrounding soil.
The landscape trees surrounding the vines were withering one by one, visibly.
The thorny vines that had grown strong were like poisonous dragons. With a few whooshes, they tied up all the cultists within sight.
The spikes pierce the skin.
All the blood was drained out and turned into nutrients, and the thorny vines continued to grow.
The banshee was inspired by the Thorn Seed, so naturally she inherited the Thorn Seed's ability to suck blood, absorb life energy, and vitality, and even surpassed it .
The vines fight to support themselves, and gorgeous flowers bloom on the vines, sowing new thorn seeds. After the seeds fall to the ground, they quickly absorb nutrients and grow stronger.
"On Street 69, 19 cultists have been eliminated."
"On Street 24, we found a cultist's den. There is a high probability that there is a node. We are going to break it down."
"On Street 44, we have eliminated 3 three-star evil spirits and 26 two-star evil spirits."
"Fifty-seventh Street..."
"One Hundred and Eighth Street..."
In the foggy city,
In the area where the thorny vines are most dense, dark green vines crisscross and guard a huge flower bud in the center that is three or four meters high and has tightly closed petals.
Inside the flower bud, there are two graceful figures sitting opposite each other.
Liu Shang closed her eyes and used the vines that she had cultivated to extend her vision, capturing the figures of the enemies one by one and making tactical adjustments.
The specific operation naturally depends on...
"Liu Ji, vine number 79, medium-strength enemy."
"Okay, sister."
The thorn banshee Liu Ji manipulated the vines, and through the seeds that were equivalent to her clones, her power continued to extend.
Dozens of kilometers away,
Bang--
Thick vines broke through the windows and kept pouring into the house, strangling all the cultists while they were stunned.
Immediately afterwards, the thorn banshee Liu Ji turned her attention to the next area.
Covered by vines, most of the foggy city became her hunting ground.
There is a red moon hanging high in the sky.
The whole world is covered by the tree world.
In the worst-hit area in the Fog City, Saint Anthony of France looked horrified. In his eyes, those thick vines were constantly extending and soon spread to the distance, where there were areas where powerful and evil spirits gathered.
These strange vines started fighting with the evil spirits.
Some vines wrapped around the evil spirits, while others were torn apart by them.
But the number of vines increased, seeds kept falling, new vines grew, and thick dark green vines rushed into the sky.
Getting longer and thicker.
It was like a series of vine dragons, tying up the two giant shadows in the distance and binding them alive! Even though the vines broke from time to time, there were always more and more vine dragons climbing up.
Entangle! Bind!
Round and round! Stack and stack!
In a moment, countless vine dragons entwined to form a huge vine mountain, standing tall on the ruins, appearing in front of Saint Anthony and other powerful men from the Sunset Kingdom!
The mountain shook and bulged.
The loud roar from Guixie spread far away.
But it was also like being held by two giant hands, constantly tightening and tightening.
The trembling and the bulge gradually subsided, just like two giant man-eating beasts, the Fujiyamas slowly returned to calm.
Only the strong men of the Sunset Country who were watching this scene from afar felt as if huge waves were rising in their hearts that could not be calmed for a long time.
At this time,
Saint Anthony of France was stunned for a moment, and when he looked up, he found that the scarlet moon hanging high above the foggy city had disappeared at some point.
The red light is gone, and the night is as cold as water.
The cold wind blew across the cheeks of the night watchmen. In a daze, they found that the vines around them and the vine mountain in the distance had disappeared, and along with them, the terrifying evil spirits.
It was as if all the previous disasters were illusions.
only,
The ruins in front of them, the mess on the ground, the occasional evil limbs that were still turning into smoke, the broken vines that were oozing green liquid, and the even more shocking blurry corpses, all told them that this was not an illusion.
It was still dark, and the night watchmen tightened their clothes and ran forward.
…
"Another red light shield covering the city has disappeared!"
Huangdu, Investigation Bureau headquarters, in a command hall.
Seeing yet another ritual site being destroyed, those who knew the inside story couldn't help but raise their fists.
"Now there is only one ceremony site left."
Director Tang looked at the images captured by the satellite and couldn't help but clench his fists.
But all he could do at this moment was just watch.
Their strength is still too weak.
In the future, we must develop more cooperation with Xinhuo to keep up with the pace and deal with this increasingly serious disaster.
…
Bald Eagle Federation, District 51.
At this time, the leader of Area 51 stood with his hands behind his back, watching the satellite images.
He frowned.
"Seven cities are covered in red light, with a red moon hanging high in the sky. What exactly is going on here?"
They in Area 51 were completely unaware.
This made the leader very unhappy. He only knew that when the red moon covered the city, all communication between the inside and outside of the city was completely lost, but they knew nothing about why the red moon appeared, what the red moon was for, etc.
Even the team at the top of the list in Wanta Country had lost contact.
He cannot tolerate such things being out of control, and neither can many important figures.
Area 51 immediately used its power to mobilize several satellites to observe the situations in Wave City, Fog City and other places.
He saw a mess.
It seems that the cities shrouded in red light have suffered a major disaster, and none of these cities in their Bald Eagle Federation, the leader of District 51, felt lucky.
But he needed to know more.
Under his orders, some agents in Europe have rushed to the only remaining city.
suddenly,
The dazzling red light disappeared in the images observed by the satellite.
"it's over?"
…
"Is it over?"
Countries such as Donghuang and Baixiong, which still had the capacity to use satellite observations at this time, all raised questions.
But before they could take a closer look at the city scene after the red light faded, the clouds suddenly changed. With the last city as the core, the air currents in the entire area within tens of kilometers, hundreds of kilometers, or even farther around were disturbed.
A huge white vortex formed on the satellite observation screen.
It was as if a huge hand had disturbed the clouds in such a large area. In the core area of the vortex, the clouds began to collapse downward, as if something was about to break out of the clouds.
〔bite!〕
[Tip: The special mission "Sacrifice of the Evil Cult" has changed, and the current mission has been upgraded.]
〔bite!〕
Donghuang, Area 51, White Bear Country, Sunset Country, Wave Country, etc., anyone who observed this scene, or the strongest person in the world on Blue Star, felt depressed at this moment.
It seems like some disaster is about to happen.
This was an intuition, an omen, hard to explain, it suddenly emerged from the bottom of my heart and my face became heavy.
"what happened?!"
…
"What on earth happened? Didn't we succeed?"
Under the cover of night,
A huge strange bird was flying in the air at full speed. On the bird's body, the thin An Jianyou stood on it. She seemed unaffected by the strong wind. She stood steadily, but when she looked at the slowly sinking clouds in the distance, she became extremely solemn.
The closer he got, the more An Jianyou could feel that a terrifying presence was about to arrive.
It was like a mountain was slowly pressing down.
There are dangers, great disasters, and great terrors ahead!
only,
She tightened her collar and looked down at the flame symbol engraved on the silver-scale armor. The words her mentor often said emerged in her mind, and her eyes were clear and firm.
Riding the strange bird, he flew towards the center of depression.
