Oh
With a demonstrative roar, a figure covered with fur and leopard prints, but with the physical characteristics of a woman, rushed towards Tianyang.
While running, the leopard girl popped out her sharp claws, and her two arms expanded dramatically, exuding a huge aura of power.
Its pupils were narrowing, and dozens of glands in its body were madly secreting hormones, which flowed throughout its body along with the rushing blood, allowing it to release a tyrannical aura.
Leopard Girl jumped high, roared wildly, and grabbed Tianyang with her sharp claws, which were glowing with a faint blood.
But he caught nothing.
Tianyang ducked and slid under it, and the moonlight slashed out quickly, leaving seven or eight criss-crossing gray-blue marks on the Leopard Girl's body.
This creature, a combination of an animal and a human, fell to the ground, its body shaking. It turned around and tried to attack again, but its body fell apart, blood spurted out like a fountain, and its muscles began to disintegrate.
After quietly waiting for it to decompose safely, Tianyang discovered that there was no residue left in the black sludge.
He checked his progress again, and still saw no improvement at all.
Tianyang couldn't help but frown.
So far, in addition to the werewolf at the beginning, he has also encountered cat women, donkey men, centaurs, and sphinxes. Adding the leopard woman now, Tianyang feels that the black people in this city can be put together into a zoo.
Regardless of which type of black people they were, they left no relics and did not contribute to the progress of sublimation. Apart from helping to improve combat skills, the sublimators had no other gains.
This is very wrong.
"team leader."
Yan Bing's voice sounded, and Tian Yang saw him, Gu Ming, and several soldiers running towards him quickly.
There were traces of battle on their bodies, and there were many scratches on the "Queen" mecha. It seemed that this intelligent weapon had shared a lot of pressure and endured attacks for them.
They had been separated from Tianyang for most of the day, and now they finally reunited. Tianyang looked at the communication device and saw that it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the distance to the camp was not short, so Tianyang issued an order.
"Let's go back. Today's work ends here. Let's pack up."
Random teleportations still occurred along the way, occurring every 15 minutes, so the journey that could have been completed in one hour took Tianyang and his team nearly three hours.
When the team returned to the camp, it was already past six in the evening. The sky was dyed red by the setting sun, and the originally thin fog was gradually becoming thicker.
It can be seen that the night is less suitable for exploration than the day. Moreover, after the night falls, the roar of something can be heard from time to time in the city. In those sounds, masters like Tianyang can feel the "power" contained in these sounds.
That is absolutely incomparable to the black people encountered during the day.
Even during the exploration, once people were randomly teleported, they would move closer to their nearest companions in order to reunite. Even so, there were still unlucky people who were teleported directly to the dangerous area and could not return to the camp because they were left alone.
Even the nameplates of these people could not be recovered. At night, Liang Sen could only pour a bowl of wine towards the depths of the city to comfort the souls of the dead.
After dinner, Tianyang was summoned by Liang Sen to the tent of Captain Gaoshanying, where he reported today's discoveries to Captains Jiyu and Cangdu.
Their situation is different from Tianyang's
Not many, but the team members were constantly and randomly teleported to various places in the city, encountering various strange black people who were combinations of animals and humans.
Likewise, no relics were obtained after the battle, and the Ascendants who participated in the battle received no progress feedback.
"This phenomenon is very strange. I have never experienced anything similar, nor have I heard anyone else talk about it." After listening to the reports from Tianyang and others, Rita showed a pensive expression.
"There is something wrong. For example, here, there is a distinction between day and night. Even the gap between the two is too weird."
Liang Sen sighed, and then made a decision: "I will report the matter to the command room. Let them worry about these phenomena. We just need to do our job well. Tomorrow, Major Xiao Guang, Lida and I will be responsible for the exploration, and the other teams will stay in the camp."
"Captain, do I have to stay again?" Kun Lan said dissatisfiedly, "If you think that I can't command the team in such an environment, then let me explore alone. I have stayed in the camp long enough!"
Liang Sen laughed and said, "Well, you follow Lida. Their team is all elemental hearts. If they are teleported to another place, you can be with them and protect them."
Kunlan immediately somersaulted excitedly: "That's it!"
When he emerged from the tent, Tianyang sensed something and looked outside the camp. In the mist outside the camp, he could vaguely see a short, slender figure.
It flashed in the mist and disappeared.
Tianyang found an excuse and left the camp. Not long after, he saw the black-haired girl.
The girl named Yihuan was walking in front at a moderate pace. Tianyang soon discovered that when he followed the girl, no random transfer occurred.
When she stopped, the fog around her had even dissipated a lot, and it could be seen that this was originally a street.
Tianyang saw a car 'hanging' on a tree, of course, only a frame was left; he also saw a shop submerged in green grass, with plastic models placed inside; he saw that the left side of the road was occupied by puddles, with green grass and flowers of various colors growing by the water.
Yihuan squatted down near the grass, picking the flowers and said in a gentle tone: "Your activities will speed up mother's awakening. When she wakes up, you won't be able to leave."
Tianyang looked at the car hanging on the tree and guessed that when it was on the ground, it was gradually lifted up into the air by the growing trees: "Yihuan, who is your mother?"
The little girl pinned a yellow flower on her head and turned her head back: "Mom is mom, look, is it pretty?"
Tianyang nodded: "Then can you tell me what is going on in this city? Why does it teleport people randomly? Also, what are those creatures that look like both humans and animals?"
Yi Huan raised his head and looked at the night sky above that was not blocked by fog. He saw the bright moon and twinkling stars. "Look, how beautiful the night is tonight. Before you came, there was no need to use fog to block the view."
"Every morning, I can watch the sun rise; every night, I can watch the moon set. This city is our home. You ask why it randomly teleports people. It is because it is to prevent people like you from destroying our home."
"This is our last paradise."
There was a hint of sadness in the little girl's voice.
Consciously feel sad.
"We didn't mean to destroy this place, we just..."
"do not talk."
Yi Huan shook his head: "You should leave immediately. It will not be good for you to stay any longer."
"If I hadn't discovered that you and I are of the same kind, I would have expelled you without Mom waking up."
The black-haired girl turned around and pointed in the direction of the city exit: "This is not the place you should come to. I hope you can leave tomorrow. Otherwise, I won't be so polite anymore."
Tian Yang said in a deep voice: "Yi Huan, I don't want you to get hurt either. We are not the only ones who want to explore this place. Even if you drive us out, more people will come soon."
"That won't do you or your mother any good. Since you can communicate with me, maybe you can try to communicate with others. We can find a compromise so that no one will be hurt. Isn't that better?"
The mist came out of nowhere, spreading quietly, flowing past the little girl and gradually enveloping her.
"it's out of the question."
"I only communicate with my own kind, and I won't even communicate with you, mom."
"We are here for a reason, and we refuse to compromise, no matter who it is, no matter how many. If they try to force their way into the city, explore our homeland."
"Then there is only one outcome for them..."
Yihuan's voice gradually faded away, and soon the street was filled with fog again. The little girl left without saying the rest of the words.
Tianyang frowned slightly and returned to the camp. During this process, there was no random transfer. Tianyang knew that this was the "privilege" given to him by Yihuan.
But this "right" will most likely only last until tonight.
He returned to the camp and reported to Liang Sen about his meeting and conversation with Yi Huan.
"Captain, tomorrow's exploration may be more dangerous than today. I think we should consider leaving the city first. Then I will communicate with the girl and see if we can find a compromise."
Tianyang did this not simply because Yihuan regarded him as his "fellow kind", the main reason was that he sensed a human presence from Yihuan.
Although he knew that it was impossible for a normal little girl to live in the adverse world, after several contacts with her, Tianyang felt that Yihuan still had some humanity left.
If they continue to explore here, Yi Huan might put away his humanity and do something extreme. This will lead to no buffer between the two sides, and the only way to end it is the destruction of one side.
Liang Sen thought about it carefully and said, "I can only report this matter to the command room. The specific decision will be made by them."
Tian Yang said helplessly: "Well, this is the only way. I hope they can make an accurate judgment."
After leaving the captain's tent, Tianyang was not sleepy. He took the initiative to take the responsibility of guarding the camp and let several soldiers go to rest. Tianyang knew that there would be no danger tonight, but it was hard to say from tomorrow onwards.
He was thinking about what kind of state Yi Huan was in, and what secrets this city was hiding. In addition to the "key", what else were Yi Huan and her daughter guarding... ... .
