A total of more than 40 saints were dispatched in this operation. A group of eight people crossed the strait, arrived at the destination, and started a search along the mountain forest where the accident occurred.
Basically every team is composed of official personnel and saints from the civilian mercenary group. They rely on radio communication with each other.
Chu Qianxun and others were assigned to Fu Guoxu's team.
In the team, besides Chu Qianxun, Ye Peitian, Gao Yan and Yan Xue, there was another pair of brothers.
Among them, the elder brother, Yu Junan, was born in the army, tall and well-mannered. Every time he walked a section of the road, he stopped at the beginning, carefully searched and looked over it, shook his head and moved on.
The younger brother Yu Junyi was relatively thin and pale. There were several hideous scars crisscrossing his eyes, making his supposedly handsome face look hideous and terrifying. He silently followed behind his elder brother on the mountain road.
"Brother Junan, haven't you found anything yet?" It was a young girl who was slender, with delicate features and long black straight hair tied behind her head. She was a real beauty.
It's just that the pair of beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted, with an anxious look on their face, and they walked quickly in the queue, seeming to be trying to suppress themselves, and they didn't take the lead in rushing into the depths of the jungle alone.
"Jingrou, don't be so anxious. Tongguang is not only your brother, but also our important brother. We will try our best to find him, I believe he will be fine." Yu Junan comforted the girl named Yang Jingrou. Yang Jingrou's elder brother, Yang Tongguang, is a warrior with outstanding fighting ability. He has cooperated with Fu Guoxu, Yu Junan and others on many missions and has a strong relationship.
Recently, several demon hunting teams have disappeared in this forest.
The Ludao base specially sent an elite team of Yang Tongguang to investigate the situation here.
Although there are only five members in this team, the members of the team are not only experienced and cooperative, but all of them are saints above the second rank.
It has been seven or eight days since such a team entered this small mountain forest. Two days ago, a flare was fired into the air from the depths of the jungle, signaling for help, but there was no movement.
After high-level research at the base, it was finally decided to organize this large-scale search operation.
By noon, the search force had entered the depths of the forest.
In the forest, towering trees block the scorching sun, birds chirping, insects chirping, spring water gurgling, and there is no trace of violent fighting along the way.
The team stopped to rest, and everyone took out the food they brought with them and settled for lunch.
Yang Jingrou barely ate anything, just drank a few sips of water, and looked into the dark depths of the jungle. She looked relatively calm, but the fingers hanging from her legs, twitching back and forth, revealed the extreme unease in her heart.
She and her brother lived together in troubled times. Although she also evolved supernatural powers, her brother protected her very well, allowing her to live in the base without any worries, and basically never let her participate in dangerous demon hunting operations. .
She couldn't imagine how she would live alone in such a monster-infested world if she lost her brother.
"Qianxun, let me introduce to you, Jun An's ability is corrosion. Junyi's ability is strengthening. Jingrou's ability is cutting." In order to ease Yang Jingrou's emotions, Fu Guoxu began to introduce each other's ability. "My ability is change."
Fu Guoxu took off his shoes, and the legs outside the shorts began to grow thick hair, which gradually changed into a curved animal hoof shape. The powerful hooves kicked hard on the ground, sending out a powerful explosive force, and jumping 20 meters away in an instant.
"This is just one form. I can change several more." Fu Guoxu returned to his original state, walked back, and patted his head embarrassedly, "But only one part can be changed at the same time."
"I heard that several of the girls are masters, why don't you take this opportunity to show it, or let me worship and worship." Yu Junan said with a slightly provocative tone.
He is a saint with powerful abilities, and he feels that this kind of hearsay is a little unreliable, especially when most of the opponents are pretty girls.
Yan Xue picked up the gun with a clatter, and without a word, fired a shot forward. A bullet shot out of the dark barrel, turned around in the air, and flew straight towards Jun An.
"Oh? It's interesting." Yu Junan's body responded extremely quickly, dodging the bullets and backing away.
The gun barrel in Yan Xue's hand corroded and dissolved at a speed visible to the naked eye, like the concentrated acid that was poured on it.
Yan Xue was furious, her hands trembled, and the slender gun barrel suddenly changed into a dozen barrels of different thicknesses and sizes.
Large and small bullets flew out of the barrel together, chasing Yu Junan who was running from different angles in all directions.
Yu Junyi, who had been sitting alone with his eyes closed, stood up, his eyes covered with scars opened, revealing a pair of red eyes. Those red eyes looked at his running brother, who was struggling, and Yu Junan, who was running, began to run around. Covered with a layer of silver-white streamer, like being covered with a layer of silver armor to protect him.
Then the pair of red pupils turned to Yan Xue, Yan Xue immediately felt her arms soften, and her strength began to lose rapidly, almost unable to hold the exaggerated firearm in her hand.
Yu Junyi, who was using his abilities to suppress Yan Xue, suddenly felt a tingling in his neck, and the skin on his back had a horrifying feeling of pores.
A long, thin red blade rested silently around his neck.
"Can't you afford to lose? Still want two-on-one?" The girl's soft voice sounded in his ear.
But what came from that sharp blade was a real murderous aura.
"I admit defeat, I'm sorry." Yu Junan stopped and raised his hand, he saw that Yan Xue's bullet was just chasing him, leaving room after all. But the Chu Qianxun who put the knife on his brother's neck made him feel a little scared.
Yan Xue withdrew the gun and changed the gun body back to its original state. Chu Qianxun also slowly retracted the long sword, returning the sword to its sheath.
"It's alright, let's get to know each other well, and we can cooperate in the battle later, don't hurt your peace." Fu Guoxu played a round, but still couldn't help giving Chu Qianxun a thumbs up, "Xuemei, you are still the same. Fantastic. No, no, you are a hundred times more powerful than you were then."
"I'm convinced." Yu Junan stretched out his hand towards Chu Qianxun and Yan Xue, "When Fatty first came, he kept saying that he had a beautiful and powerful junior girl, and our brothers thought he was bragging. But he punched himself in the face."
Chu Qianxun clapped his hand, indicating that the matter was over.
Yan Xue turned her eyes away and ignored the man, although the gun and bullets had been integrated with her will and could change with her will. But she still hates anyone who tries to destroy her love of guns.
The fight was lively here, and Yang Jingrou, who was sitting on the side, seemed unmoved. She slowly stood up and walked towards the jungle, reaching out and plucking a small piece of blue cotton cloth from a branch.
She held the little blue cotton cloth in front of her eyes, flipped it back and forth, and her fingers trembled: "This is my brother's, it was left by my brother."
The crowd gathered quickly,
"Really? Are you sure it's Tongguang's clothes?"
"Sure, I can't be wrong, this is what my brother wore when he went out."
Deep in the jungle, the jungle is still quiet, except for the trees that flutter in the wind, nothing unusual can be seen.
"Eternal God Emperor"
"Go, go in and have a look." Yu Junan took the lead and walked inside.
After walking along the dense forest with almost no roads, Yu Junan stopped.
Under a thick tree trunk, sat a human corpse, with his head bowed, his body wrapped in dense vines, and one arm stretched out stiffly, maintaining a posture of asking for help before dying. On the ground in front of him rolled down a used flare gun.
Yang Jingrou ran forward and carefully held the dry hand,
The body seemed to have been weathered here for several years, and it was extremely fragile. When Yang Jingrou touched it lightly, it collapsed in the gap between the vines and vines.
"This person is my brother's teammate." Yang Jingrou stood up tremblingly and took a step back, "Why did he look like this."
The corpse that fell to the ground completely lost its flesh and blood, leaving only a mummified corpse with skin and bones. And this person just sent a distress signal to the sky the day before yesterday.
Fu Guoxu took out the radio and reported the situation to the other teams searching in the forest.
While Fu Guoxu was speaking, in the jungle not far in front of them, Fu Guoxu's voice came.
Except for the rustling of the walkie-talkie, there was no sound.
Fu Guoxu exchanged glances with Yu Junan,
There is a team of people, a team of their own people, but it is possible that they are all dead.
Yang Jingrou's eyes turned red. In the space in front of her, a faint black line appeared. The black line seemed to tear the space and expand slightly. The black line moved forward. Wherever it passed, all the trees were cut silently. . After a while, the dense trees in front of them collapsed one by one, revealing a piece of open space not far away.
A group of people rushed forward. This open area in the jungle was scattered with various weapons, backpacks, and even clothing and shoes. A walkie-talkie was lying in the middle of the grass, making a rustling sound.
"Dong Er Dong Er, what happened, please answer if you receive it, please answer if you receive it." Zuo Liangcai's anxious voice came from the walkie-talkie.
Fu Guoxu picked up the walkie-talkie, "Brother Zuo, this is the Dongsan Squad, and I am Fu Guoxu. I don't know what happened to the Dong2 Squad, and no one is missing, only some equipment and no corpses are left."
"Fu Guoxu, report your location. Your team is waiting for support, pay attention to safety."
Fu Guoxu put away the walkie-talkie,
The strange situation increased his anxiety.
They were not far from here before. What caused the entire eight-person team to disappear out of thin air without even raising the alarm in time and without going through a fierce battle
Before he could think about it carefully, a few sticky tentacles stretched out from the big tree behind him, covering his mouth and nose, binding his whole body in an instant, and dragging him into the depths of the dense forest.
But Chu Qianxun's speed was even faster. Almost as soon as the tentacles appeared, the black blade had already been unsheathed, and the black blade light spread out in a row, severing the tentacles wrapped around Fu Guoxu into dozens of pieces.
Fu Guoxu rolled down to the grass with a dozen or so broken tentacles.
Chu Qianxun didn't stop for a moment, turned around and rushed, and said in his mouth, "Gao Yan pay attention to your back!"
Standing behind Gao Yan, who was in the exact opposite direction to Fu Guoxu, the upper body of a humanoid monster protruded from the trunk of a big tree.
The upper body of the monster has a human-like appearance, but the torso connected to the trunk is completely the characteristic form of a plant.
The big tree where it was located changed dozens of tentacles, swaggering in the air and rushing towards Gao Yan.
Fortunately, Jun An also reacted in time, he scolded, the body of the monster and those swaying tentacles began to corrode and dissolve as if they were splashed with concentrated acid.
The monster let out a piercing scream and retracted its entire body into the trunk at once.
Chu Qianxun's knife light chased after him, splitting the sturdy tree, breaking the trunk several times. Only the rings of the tree could be seen at the flat fracture, and there was no trace of the monster at all.
Yang Jingrou, who had hardly participated in battles, watched all this in a panic and nervousness. It turned out that before she knew it, her brother was involved in such terrifying battles every day.
There was a sudden chill on the back of her neck, and something cold and sticky grabbed her neck.
She let out a loud scream in extreme panic. The clothes on Fu Guoxu's back were torn, spread out a pair of black eagle wings, reached out and grabbed her clothes and flew into the air.
The yellow sand solidified in the air, severing the entire trunk of the tree that stretched out its tentacles, and even pinched the monster that was too late to retract the trunk.
The monster's eyeballs protruded, the skin color gradually changed, and it gradually restored to a tree, and the real monster disappeared again.
Chu Qianxun stopped and motioned for everyone to gather around back to back.
"This is troublesome," she said. "This monster is very difficult to deal with. Its body can walk through all plants at will, and it can't be caught at all."
She was talking about trouble, but there was excitement in her eyes.
Tier 4 monsters.
I want to get the Demon Seed before anyone else finds out. she thought to herself.
"Unless we exit this forest, we are all within its attack range. We can't find it, but she can show up to attack us at any time." Chu Qianxun returned her sword, "but it has a weakness."
"What's the weakness?"
"This kind of monster seems to be wandering, but it actually has a root deep in the jungle, which is its old nest. It lives by directly extracting human flesh and blood. It has caught so many people recently, and it is impossible to eat it all at once. . It will bind all the people who are still alive in its lair. If we find its roots now, there may be a chance to rescue these people, whether you want it or not?"
Yang Jingrou immediately said: "Yes, I think. Maybe my brother is still alive. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will try my best."
Chu Qianxun glanced at her, a little disgusted.
If you go, you will die, she thought in her heart, I won't let someone die for the sake of the Demon Seed.
Yu Junyi opened his red eyes and said, "You mean to use people as bait? Find where its lair is?"
Chu Qianxun looked at him with a smile in his eyes.
This one is rather smart.
Yu Junyi's face was solemn, he knew what this woman meant,
"Okay, I'll be the bait," he said.
"No!" Yu Junan interrupted him immediately, "I'm going to go too."
"It's useless for weak chickens to go. To make this bait, only someone with strong melee ability will have a chance to escape." Chu Qianxun said calmly, "I'd better go by myself, Yu Junyi, How many states can you support?"
"I, I can add two kinds of protection and strength, and at the same time can weaken the strength and speed of the enemy." Yu Junyi's face was a little pale, in his eyes, no matter how powerful women are, they are still a weak group. He really did not expect a girl Will actively want to participate in such a dangerous battle.
"That's fine. You bless me." Chu Qianxun said, "After I was taken away, you all follow from afar, and don't be discovered by monsters."
Chu Qianxun, who was wearing the silver defensive light, slowly left the crowd and walked out alone.
There was something undulating slightly under the ground, and she didn't seem to see it at all.
Just when countless tentacles broke out, they were about to catch her.
The huge palm made of yellow sand grabbed it from the air and threw her back to the crowd.
When Chu Qianxun didn't react at all, a figure took her place, covered her mouth and nose with countless tentacles, bound her body and dragged her into the depths of the jungle.
"Ye Peitian! You bastard!" Chu Qianxun jumped up from the scattered sand pile and ran after the monster in the direction where the monster disappeared.
