Just as Tianyang was about to be hit, a figure suddenly rushed over and knocked the enhanced version of the Wanderer away, and also knocked the tree roots behind the thing high up.
The figure rolled on the ground and immediately fired his gun. A series of blue beams penetrated the cage on the Wanderer's chest and also illuminated the face of the Flame Soldier inside the helmet!
After killing the Prowler, the Flame Soldier fired his gun, blasting the two monsters pressing on Tianyang with blood and flesh flying everywhere. They were finally defeated by the beam firepower and raised one of their monster hands to resist.
The pressure on Tianyang was slightly reduced, and the boy immediately fought back.
He first kicked one prowler away, then raised his hand, pressed the Deathstroke against the chest of the other one, and pulled the trigger.
The thunderous gunshots echoed in the space of the mountain, shaking several stone pillars. As for the wanderer, Tianyang blasted a hole the size of a human head in its chest, and the cage of will turned directly into ashes!
Tianyang climbed up and joined Yanbing. At this time, more than a dozen enhanced wanderers surrounded the two of them. Those twisted figures with yellow light, like demons crawling out of hell, were attracted by the blood and flesh of humans, and pounced on them with evil and terrifying howls.
The blade of the Red Moon Saber glowed crimson, and Yanbing's assault rifle was also raised high. He and Tianyang roared at the same time and rushed towards the enemy.
Unexpectedly, the monsters that were howling like crazy suddenly lost their voices. Their movements froze at the same time, and they fell to the ground one by one while running.
The yellow light in the blood vessels on the body's surface quickly dimmed, and the mutated shape began to melt, turning into a pool of mud in the blink of an eye.
This made Tianyang and the other man unable to react for a moment, and then they heard a sharp whistle coming from the direction of the pool.
Over there, the bird was withdrawing its sword. The figure of a woman embedded in the trunk of the dead tree had crisscrossing gray-white frost lines on its surface, and it seemed that the bird had slashed dozens of times with its sword in an instant.
The frost line cracked, and the cage of the woman's will fell apart with a crash. Pieces of blood-red light floated up and gradually disappeared in the air.
After a shrill howl came from the trunk of the undead tree, the branches of this thing began to droop, and each root began to spread out from the end.
In the blink of an eye, the entire undead tree became shorter, and its bark kept falling off and turning into rotten black mud.
At this moment, something rolled out from the bottom of the tree trunk. The bird walked into one and found it was a beating heart! There were some hairy roots floating around it. These tiny black hairy roots seemed to be supported by invisible hands, flying and dancing.
Even though the heart gradually crystallized, these roots showed no signs of stillness, which was very strange.
The bird took out a recycling container and put the materials dropped from the undead tree into it.
"Wonderful! So wonderful!"
When Tianyang was resting, Xie Miao's voice came. The shameless man who fled without fighting came over with other sublimators.
As they walked, they clapped their hands.
Xie Miao had an insincere smile on his face: "You guys have worked hard and done a great job. I will report this to the headquarters when we get back. It was not easy for us to kill this undead tree together. I think our ranking on the battle list should move up a bit."
we
Yan Bing was furious. The three of them had worked together to kill the dead tree. What did Xie Miao have to do with it? This bastard didn't help before, but now he jumped out to share the credit. He was so shameless!
Tianyang stood up expressionlessly: "Why didn't you help just now?"
Xie Miao seemed to have been prepared for this, and said calmly: "It's not that I won't help, I'm just waiting for the right opportunity. Believe me, I've actually wanted to come and support you for a long time, but I just never found the opportunity."
"But you don't need my help. It's just a dead tree, you can do it. Look, you really knocked down the dead tree, proving my foresight..."
Xie Miao's eyes suddenly blurred, and as he looked up, he saw the dome of the mountain gradually darkening.
what happened
He staggered back two steps, then felt a burning pain on his face, and then he came to his senses.
He got punched!
Looking over, Tianyang turned into a shadow again, and then he got punched in the stomach.
"Mom..." Before Xie Miao could curse out loud, he was hit in the nose by an elbow again. He quickly covered his hand with it, and his palm was full of hot blood!
He was hit three times in a row, and only then did he have the chance to shout, "You bastard, how dare you hit me
Me! I am the commander, I am the lieutenant! You are committing treason, arrest him!"
Several Ascendants exchanged glances and drew their weapons hesitantly. Suddenly, a cold wind blew and Xiaoniao rushed to Tianyang's side.
The girl held a rapier in her hand, pointed at the Ascendants and said solemnly, "Put away your weapons!"
Yan Bing gritted his teeth and ran over, protecting Tian Yang's other side, pointing his gun at a War God-class warrior.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the mountain became tense, and the two teams confronted each other with swords drawn.
Seeing that those Ascendants didn't dare to make a move, Xie Miao shouted and reached out to draw his sword.
There was a sudden chill on my forehead; it turned out that the muzzle of Deathstroke's gun was against me.
The young man holding the gun drew his sword at the same time, and the Red Moon Sword was placed on the hilt of Xie Miao's sword. Tian Yang then looked at him and said in a low voice: "If you hadn't deserted the battlefield, they wouldn't have died at all."
They, of course, refer to the soldiers in the vanguard team.
"They are just cannon fodder, so let them die. If needed, there are plenty of them in the training camp!" Xie Miao roared, "Now, you should worry more about yourself! Beating up the commander and stabbing your comrades, each of these is a serious crime!"
"I'm going to report you to the headquarters! Just wait..."
Bang!
Tian Yang hit him on the temple with the butt of his gun. Xie Miao screamed and fell to the ground with his head covered. The young man kicked him again and said, "How can someone like you who does nothing and abandons his teammates be qualified to be a commander!"
"As for the rest, I don't care. Now, I want to act on my own and no longer accept anyone's command. Facts have proved that handing my life over to a cowardly leader is an extremely serious mistake."
“I won’t make the same mistake twice.”
Tianyang put away the knife, the death knell was still pointing at Xie Miao, and he stepped back.
Xiaoniao and Yanbing also followed. They had already made up their minds to go with Tianyang, so they naturally would not stay to continue to be ordered around by Xie Miao.
Xie Miao was furious, but he didn't dare to start it rashly. After all, he had just witnessed the power of the Death Knell, and he didn't want his head to be blown up by that exaggerated pistol.
He had no choice but to endure it until Tianyang and the other two disappeared into the darkness deep in the mountain. Only then did Xie Miao climb up.
He covered his head, looked at the Ascendants and roared, "Useless! Can you be more cowardly? There are only three of them! You dare not even move!"
Anger welled up in the eyes of several Ascendants, and one of them said in a deep voice: "Xie Miao, you are just a temporary commander, not our captain! Therefore, you have no right to scold us!"
"And I think that the situation just now was caused by your improper command?" another Sublimator also spoke up.
The others nodded one after another. Xie Miao was startled, knowing that he had lost his composure just now, and quickly made amends: "I didn't order support, but that was for everyone's sake. After all, the battle situation was unclear at the time, and I was planning to find out the movement patterns of the dead tree before rescuing it."
"But I didn't expect that the Dead Tree would be killed so easily. So I guess my command was inappropriate, which was a bit serious. The most I did was not to provide timely support."
"But anyway, my rank here..."
"I want to leave on my own." The Ascendant who was dissatisfied with Xie Miao just now said, "I don't want to, next time I will be the one who is abandoned."
"Me too."
"I'll go with you."
Suddenly, the team broke up, and several Ascendants formed their own teams and left in the direction they came from.
Xie Miao didn't expect that they didn't even take him seriously and just dispersed. He couldn't help but yell at their backs: "Do whatever you want, you good-for-nothings, I don't even bother to take you with me!"
"Damn it, it's all that white-haired brat's fault! You're the one who made me look bad. I'm not done with you!"
... ...
In the underground space, the concepts of time and distance become quite vague.
After leaving the belly of the mountain where the undead tree was, Tianyang used the flow of air to determine the direction and took Xiaoniao and Yanbing through the seemingly endless underground passage.
After walking for three hours, the team stopped to rest.
Tianyang and Xiaoniao took out high-energy rations to replenish their physical strength, while Yanbing pressed a portion of survival supplies into the extractor. After eating, Tianyang looked at the two of them apologetically.
“After returning, maybe
I will cause you to be punished."
Xiao Niao said nonchalantly, "We did nothing wrong, so why should we be afraid? Even if you don't beat up that bastard, I will still chop him a few times to vent my anger. You actually left us behind, this shameless thing should be dealt with by military law!"
Yan Bing also said: "Sir, if the headquarters asks, you just need to report truthfully. We can all testify, and in this way, the headquarters should not embarrass us."
Tian Yang nodded and said, "I hope so. However, if the headquarters still wants to investigate, you can put the blame on me. This matter was caused by me, so I should bear all the responsibility."
"Don't worry, Sister Feimei... Well, General Feimei is very fair. She will never favor someone like Xie Miao." Xiaoniao looked confident.
The girl took out the recycling container that contained the materials of the dead tree and handed it to Tianyang: "This is for you. It is the material that fell from the strange tree."
Tian Yang pushed back: "No, you killed the dead tree, the materials should be yours."
The little bird stuffed it into Tianyang's waist bag without explanation: "If I say it's yours, it's yours. If you hadn't told me that the woman on the tree was actually the will cage of the dead spirit tree, I don't know if I could kill it successfully."
"By the way, Tianyang, how did you know that the prisoner of the dead tree was actually that woman?"
Tianyang coughed dryly: "Intuition, a warrior's intuition."
He couldn't possibly use his ability to sense weaknesses, and at this moment, Tianyang suddenly heard a strange sound.
At first he thought it was the sound of the wind, but when he listened carefully, he vaguely heard a dog barking.
Where did the dog come from deep underground
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
As a preview, if nothing unexpected happens, our book should be on the shelves on the 17th, which is Monday.
Putting a work on the shelves is a real test for the author. How many people are willing to pay for the work will be reflected when it is put on the shelves.
I think we have a good understanding of the content and quality of the public chapter of more than 300,000 words.
As for updates, whether it is "Edge of Doom" or the blocked "War Lords", those who have been following along should know that, except for taking a day off occasionally, Lao Chen has basically never stopped updating.
There was even one time when I had a minor surgery and was hospitalized for a week, but I still managed to update the series daily based on my saved drafts. So I think I am quite self-disciplined in this regard.
The book "Under the Black Mist" is different from the subject matter I have written before. At that time, it was a story born out of inspiration about what would happen if many doomsday worlds appeared in the same plane.
In order to create different doomsday worlds, I bought several sets of reference books, collected information, designed the structure, set the characters, and the outline. The preliminary preparation work took about two months.
Then I wrote the opening. After writing several openings and screening them, I asked the editor to review them, finalize the draft, and finally upload it to the website.
What you see now is the first doomsday world, which is also set on the Earth where we live. I believe that after seeing so much, many friends have discovered that Reverse World No. 127 is our world.
During this process, I set up some Easter eggs and some friends found them.
I find this kind of interaction quite interesting, so I will continue to maintain this kind of interaction in the future inverse worlds. And through more explorations of the reverse world, I will reveal the origins of the reverse world, the black fog, and the sublimators.
But the premise of everything is that we must get everyone's support. To put it simply, we need enough subscription support.
Because Lao Chen signed a buyout contract with the website, if there are not many subscriptions, the website will have to stop at that time in order to stop losses.
Just like my last book, Parasite, all the friends who have read it have a feeling that the last one million words were rushed. At that time, the subscription was not enough, and the website notified that the book must be completed by three million words. There was no choice but to compress the content, although generally speaking, the story is still complete.
However, it lacks many details, and many characters are not portrayed enough, so it is impossible to fully describe the content that I wanted to present.
Therefore, I sincerely hope that if you can afford it, please subscribe to Zongheng Chinese Network. Even if you want to support the article, please help me set up an automatic subscription.
Well, that's about what I wanted to say. As for the day of listing, the specific number of chapters to be updated, and the subsequent conditions for additional chapters, I will write a detailed listing notice and you can take a look tomorrow.
PS: Whether Lao Chen can make a living depends on you all!
