Influenced by the tree monster's crying, the warrior's eyes were filled with inexplicable anger, and driven by impulsive emotions, he rushed towards a tree monster.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed him.
The soldier shook his arms vigorously, trying to shake off the nosy person, but found that the other person's hands did not move at all.
The soldier roared from inside the full-coverage helmet and actually raised his gun, wanting to shoot anyone who was trying to stop him.
At this moment, he felt a violent vibration, and the world in his eyes suddenly spun. At the last moment when his consciousness slipped into darkness, he saw a young man with silver hair.
Tianyang held the unconscious soldier, secretly frightened. The voice of the tree demon had a great impact. The laughter was fine, at most it made people lose the will to fight. But the crying not only made people become reckless and impulsive, but also made them lose their judgment and attack their companions.
Fortunately, the Sublimators are protected by the Star Essence, which can weaken the impact of the tree spirit's voice. Otherwise, the team will easily have internal strife and finally fall into chaos and fighting.
Seeing the terrible influence of the tree demon, Rita and other elemental hearts could no longer sit still and used their fire abilities to speed up the burning of the forest.
The flames were blazing, and the cries in the forest gradually weakened. The fire created by the Night Walkers had already taken shape. Next, let the flames spread on their own and burn the tree monsters. Without the support of flammable objects, the flames would naturally go out.
However, things did not go as everyone had planned. After dozens of tree monsters were burned to death, bursts of earth and rocks cracking sounds were heard in the woods.
The other tree monsters that had not been licked by the flames actually pulled up their roots from the ground, and then the roots crawled, supporting their trunks and moving in the opposite direction.
They don't know how to cooperate, they can only react passively, and their intelligence is obviously not high. But they still have the instinct to seek good and avoid danger, so these monsters will uproot and stay away from this burning area to avoid being implicated and turned into ashes like their companions in the flames.
The fire lasted for several hours, with thick smoke rising and flames shooting up into the sky.
When the fire in the forest gradually died down, people discovered that the other tree demons had disappeared, and no one knew where the "forest" had moved to.
However, as long as it does not block the expeditionary force's route, no one will pursue such matters.
After the fire in the woods was extinguished, choking smoke still rose everywhere. The soldiers checked everywhere on the charred forest floor, searching for possible remains.
Tianyang also walked in and helped Sean and others to collect items so that they could leave as soon as possible and return to the route at the other end of the rift as soon as possible to confirm this safe route.
Sean used his sword to pick apart a few pieces of burnt bark and found a branch underneath that looked like a black crystal. He picked it up and said, "Some scholars have said that the black people have the ability to learn and evolve."
"The closer the black people are to the Clough Gate area, the more obvious this phenomenon is."
"On the contrary, those places are located deep in the Reverse Realm, far away from the Clave Gate, and have never been discovered by humans. Most of the black people living there retain their ancient forms. They are full of unknowns and are even more bizarre."
"I didn't really believe this statement at first, but everything I saw and heard along the way confirmed this statement."
Tian Yang found a fruit-like relic, threw it into his waist bag and said, "I have heard similar statements. There was even a time when I couldn't help but compare the two ways of survival of the black people, which one has more advantages."
Qiu Long interrupted and said, "Captain, have you come to a conclusion?"
Tianyang sighed: "If I come to a conclusion, I will go to work at Tianqing College. Unfortunately, I don't have the talent for academic research."
Several people chuckled, diluting the previous tense atmosphere.
Suddenly Gu Ming called out, "Look ahead!"
He pointed deeper into the woods.
Tianyang looked in the direction of his finger and saw a dark-skinned, hairless wolf. Its head was covered with crystals, which clustered together in a certain pattern, looking like a crown.
This wolf with a crystal crown has deep blue eyes, whose pupils sometimes stand up and sometimes expand. Its expression is calm and solemn, with a sense of human nature.
It did not hide deliberately, as if it was a natural king. It was just there, observing humans including Tianyang.
When Tianyang looked at it, its gaze changed and it retreated, but nearby, dark figures were strolling out.
Wolf pack!
Nearly a hundred in number!
It came out of nowhere, suddenly howling, and rushed towards the people who were doing recycling operations in the woods.
"Defensive formation!"
Tianyang shouted immediately, and at the same time, Moonlight was unsheathed and stood at the front of the team.
Sean held the sword tightly, stood next to Tianyang, lowered his center of gravity, and adjusted his breathing.
The Qionglong Star Essence appeared, and he first put on a layer of 'Immortal Armor' on himself, and then added a 'Star Essence Barrier' to protect himself and his companions. Then he took off the shield behind him and stood in front of Gu Ming.
Gu Ming had already raised his hand and was quite skillfully using the star essence to transform it into elemental energy, constructing seven gray-white elemental javelins.
After the wolves entered the projection range, Gu Ming did not hesitate and fired the gray-white spears one after another, running towards the black wolves closest to the team.
The black wolf either leaned to the left, dodged to the right, or jumped up, avoiding the elemental spear in their own way.
They avoided several of them, but two black wolves were still hit and immediately rolled on the spot, creating a small chaos.
The wolves dispersed, and it was obvious that their target was not just Tianyang's team.
There were only a dozen or so people running towards Tianyang's team.
Seeing the black wolves rushing towards him, Tian Yang did not rush to release the Crescent Sword Energy. The star energy on his body flashed, and the eyes of those black wolves rushing forward suddenly changed.
The next scene was shocking.
A dozen black wolves suddenly scattered, some bumping, some catching, some biting, and attacking nearby wolves. They had been controlled by Tianyang's "black glory" and became Tianyang's "puppets".
They were helpless and unable to control their own behavior. They could only watch helplessly as they saw themselves attacking their companions.
Once disrupted by these 'traitors', the wolf pack immediately fell into chaos, which bought time for other teams to react.
soon.
The rifle beams, the sword energy of the Sublimators, and the rain of bullets from the intelligent weapons fell on these black wolves.
When Tian Yang used those 'puppets' as carriers and launched the 'Dark Flame Shock', he killed most of the wolf pack in a short while.
The next battle became simple and ended quickly.
Hearing that the recycling operation was disrupted, Lida rushed over and saw the wolf corpses on the ground. She was surprised and said:
Where are they from?"
Tian Yang showed a thoughtful expression and said: "In order to bypass the rift valley, we encountered many black people along the way."
"How could so many black people of different types be gathered in one place? Captain Lida, I suspect there may be a nest here, and it must be of quite high standard."
I still remember that when we first explored the Dream City, Captain Han Shu gave everyone some knowledge about nests.
Each nest has different kinds of black people, and each nest has a 'commander'.
If the vampire giant in the stone forest, the tree monster that was just destroyed, and the current black wolf all belong to a certain nest.
Judging from the area and the number of black people, there is most likely a medium-sized nest here.
Then, the one who sits in this kind of nest is the 'Great Lord'.
Lida made the same judgment: "If there is a nest here, it is at least a medium-sized nest, with more than 3,000 and less than 10,000 black people."
"If there is a nest like this blocking the way, we won't be able to get through. Also, a medium-sized nest has a wide coverage area, so it's probably difficult to bypass it."
"So, what we can do now is to find the location of this nest and inform General Feimei."
"Whether to kill through the nest or take a detour, it will be up to the general to decide."
No one objected to Rita's decision.
Lida added: "Tianyang, let you and Jiyu take care of this. You two are the fastest and good at hiding, so go and find the location of the nest."
"Yes, sir!"
Tianyang and Jiyu exchanged glances and spoke at the same time.
After a little preparation, the two set off. In order to avoid attracting the attention of the nest, they did not use individual motorcycles, but set off on foot.
They displayed their skills, took big steps, and transformed into two faint black shadows, disappearing into the endless thick fog.
On the way, Tianyang noticed the black wolf with a cluster of crystals on its head. It was obviously the leader of the wolf pack, but it was far from the status of a "great lord".
At best, he is just a "general" in the nest.
Unfortunately, the black wolf had long since disappeared. However, as a hunter, Ji Yu still found some clues.
The clues left by the black wolf.
Following these clues, they ran for nearly ten kilometers and came to a road that was obviously man-made from a deserted land with no grass.
On both sides of this road, you can still see broken and dilapidated street lamps and road signs buried by sand.
It's a pity that the words on the road sign are too blurry to see clearly, otherwise Tianyang would be able to get more information.
Not long after walking along the road, Ji Yu suddenly pulled Tian Yang, and the two hid behind a big rock nearby.
"There's something going on ahead." Ji Yu said in a low voice, and took out a small metal ball from his waist bag.
She threw the metal ball out, then took out a remote control and fiddled with it for a while. The metal ball on the ground started rolling by itself and rolled forward.
At the same time, on the screen of the remote control in Ji Yu's hand, Tianyang saw a red picture.
Among them, he saw a broken gate standing at the end of the road, and several car wrecks piled up next to it. He also saw big black wolves and prowlers roaming around the gate and in the car wrecks...
