boom!
The explosion swept through the entire building, and Xu Le himself was the first to bear the brunt.
Although he had hidden behind a pillar after firing the bullet, the outrageous destructive power of the alchemical bomb still blew Xu Le away with his shield.
Fortunately, the defensive power of the Red Moon Shield can barely withstand the impact of the aftermath of the explosion.
When Xu Le fell to the ground, the shield had not yet dissipated, blocking a lot of falling rocks for him.
The aftermath of the explosion gradually subsided, the building stopped shaking, and the collapsed part was not much, but it was not small either.
Xu Le slowly got up from the ground and looked at the scarecrow covered with scars that had walked in front of him, feeling a little distressed.
How much did you consume in this battle
After using the ruby earrings, the Scarecrow of Life was damaged, and I myself was injured. My spiritual energy was almost overdrawn, and I was very tired.
It can be said that the loss is huge.
If we change the method and directly consume the fruit to summon the white cicada, would the effect be better
After all, the resources consumed in this battle could be exchanged for a heart energy fruit.
Even though the white cicada that he summoned did not have the polluter effect, it was still a real level 3 monster.
Is it possible to compete with the Light Spider
Xu Le pondered for a while and felt that it was impossible. The first problem was the overdraft of spiritual energy.
If he summoned Bai Chan, he would not have enough energy to continue the elementalization due to his current state, and would be shot into a hedgehog by the light needles.
Furthermore, the strength of the Light Spider itself is definitely far beyond that of the White Cicada.
Once Bai Chan is defeated, they will still be doomed.
Although Xu Le still hasn't figured out what the Lightforged Polluter means.
But what is certain is that this monster is really powerful, and they were able to win... all thanks to their own wit and adaptability.
Well, thanks to myself, otherwise Wang Shu, Gu Jianuo and the others would have been in trouble.
"Anyway, this way of fighting is safer than directly summoning exhaustion and leaving it to fate."
"Xu Le, are you okay?"
"Everything is alright?"
The other three also came out from the corners of the ruined building.
It looks okay, just some skin injuries, but nothing serious.
Gu Jianuo walked to Xu Le timidly, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Xu Le was not only admiration but also disbelief.
"Student Xu Le, you are really amazing. Too amazing. I thought we were doomed just now, but I didn't expect that you could win under such circumstances."
Xu Le felt very comfortable with Gu Jianuo's praise. Naturally, no one would refuse such a thing as being praised.
He was about to say something modest when he heard Gu Jianuo say:
"The cold-blooded butcher lives up to his reputation!"
Xu Le's face darkened and he turned and left.
Gu Jianuo, who stayed where he was, was still a little puzzled. He was smiling just now, why did he suddenly seem angry
She looked at Wang Shu beside her and asked:
"What's wrong with him?"
"As a cold-blooded butcher, you have to be more indifferent."
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Xu Le has already arrived in front of the Light Spider. The strange corpse of this level 3 Lightforged Polluter is still emitting light.
When Xu Le squatted down to observe, Wang Shu behind him immediately reminded him:
"Xu Le, be careful. The bodies of these entity polluters are likely to be contaminated by ancient sounds as well."
I know, but I'm not afraid!
Xu Le turned his head and explained:
“I know it’s polluting, but it’s still so rare.
I've read a lot of books about the weird lately, but most of the weird things involve darkness, death, and fear.
This kind of thing that is close to light is worth studying. Gu Jianuo can also come and take a look."
What Xu Le said was true. After hesitating for a while, Gu Jianuo also walked over.
“You’re really studious!”
"Um."
After Gu Jianuo came over, Xu Le just responded casually and perfunctorily, and stopped talking. He wrapped his fingers with ancient sound energy, and then used a knife to cut open the body of the Light Spider that had been blown to pieces.
Pull out two teeth from it.
Bright Fang
This thing should be a material similar to the ghost fragments.
It is said that alchemists and puppeteers need these things very much, and they should be materials for refining or enchanting.
After Xu Le took out the Fang of Light, he smiled slightly.
"Finally my work was not in vain. Thank you for the gift from nature."
"Um, Xu Le, can this thing..."
Looking at the Fang of Light, Gu Jianuo on the side seemed to be hesitant to speak.
Xu Le stuffed the teeth directly into his bag and said seriously:
"This is mine, what are you looking at?"
Gu Jianuo:
“I want to buy it.”
"You want to buy it? No problem. I'll go to the alley and ask for the price. Then we can discuss it in detail."
"Okay." Gu Jianuo said helplessly.
Xu Le actually didn't plan to sell it. After killing the Light Spider, he felt that there was something inside.
This feeling is the perception of the Soul Tree.
Xu Le felt that either the Soul Tree or the Mother Tree Realm needed this thing, so there was a high probability that it would not be given to others.
You can be poor, but you must be poor with dignity.
…
"Rest where you are."
Although the Light Spiders were dealt with, the progress of the mission was slowed down.
Everyone was injured to some extent. Xu Le had already overdrawn his physical strength, and the continuous forbidden summoning had almost drained all his accumulated mental energy.
If I want to summon it again, I guess I can only use the fruit.
"good."
Wang Shu knew that this rest time would definitely not be short. Everyone had to treat their wounds, and Xu Le also needed to recover his spiritual energy.
However, Xu Le handled the situation very appropriately this time, and he was somewhat impressed.
"This guy's growth rate is really outrageous."
If it weren't for him, the entire team would have been wiped out.
Sitting on the ground, Gu Jianuo took out a bottle of medicine from his backpack:
"I made this myself. It will be more effective than the trauma potion you used."
Xu Le and the other two looked at each other and took the potion.
Alchemical Healing Potion II
"Level 2?"
After nodding to the other two, Xu Le picked up the wound medicine and applied it.
He used it first, then passed it to Wang Shu, and finally handed it to Li Shunliu.
When handing the potion to Wang Shu, Xu Le and Wang Shu exchanged glances, but said nothing.
Wang Shu already understood what Xu Le meant.
The situation just now was very urgent. Any questions can be postponed.
But now that the situation has eased, some issues must be clarified and even settled.
"Shunliu, what happened to you just now? What were you thinking about?" Wang Shu suddenly said with a slightly heavy tone.
Gu Jianuo on the side was suddenly stunned. Just now everyone was still in the joy of surviving the disaster, why did the atmosphere suddenly change now
She looked at Li Shunliu and Wang Shu in confusion, then at Xu Le.
Xu Le was actually standing there with one hand on his chin and the other picking his fingers, with no intention of talking at all. What was going on
Li Shunliu slowly lowered his head in response to Wang Shu's questioning:
"Sorry, that was my mistake."
"Mistake? You shouldn't be a newcomer, right? I remember you joined the team a few periods later than me, but much earlier than Beichen.
There has been education about the order of multiple distortions of ancient sounds. If not 10 times, it has been at least 7-8 times, right
This kind of mistake should not happen.”
It was only then that Gu Jianuo realized that Wang Shu was talking about the grenade that Li Shunliu threw at the beginning.
She looked at Li Shunliu, wondering what her next reaction would be.
Li Shunliu was silent for a few seconds before he slowly spoke:
"Everyone makes mistakes, I didn't mean to do that."
"No matter what, as a Night Watchman you shouldn't make such a mistake. It will kill your teammates. You should reflect on yourself."
Seeing that Wang Shu had almost finished speaking, Xu Le, who had been sitting there without saying anything, finally spoke:
"Alright, alright, Shunluo almost knows he's wrong, Wang Shu should stop talking."
He had joined the Night Watch not long ago and was not familiar enough with Li Shunliu.
Therefore, it would be better for Wang Shu to do this kind of thing than for him to do it.
Li Shunliu's fingers gradually tightened, and only loosened after a long time. She sighed deeply:
"I understand, I will reflect on myself.
”
After hearing what Li Shunliu said, Wang Shu, as a teammate for a long time, relaxed his expression a little.
"That's good to know."
Xu Le stood up at this time and said to Wang Shu:
"Brother Shu, I'm going to the bathroom. Please pay attention to your bowel movements and mental energy."
Xu Le's reminder seemed a bit redundant. Wang Shu looked at him in surprise, as if thinking about something.
"Go ahead, I'll watch."
Coming to an empty corner, Xu Le did not pee, but took out the Gu Yinduo card.
Different perspectives lead to different mindsets, and different mindsets lead to even more different things being seen.
Those involved are often confused, while bystanders can see things more clearly. Wang Shu still cares too much about Li Shunliu.
As a bystander, Xu Le discovered more than one suspicious thing in the action just now.
First, there is the issue of grenades.
Then it was time for Li Shunliu to deal with the four pieces of split flesh and blood.
Xu Le felt that Li Shunliu had a chance to kill four at the same time, so she held back.
Why hold back
Maybe she wanted to test Gu Jianuo's defensive ability.
Then, Gu Jianuo almost fell down while running on the block.
Although Xu Le was fighting at the time, his ancient vision was different from his normal vision.
Li Shunliu's toes just slightly touched Gu Jianuo's heel.
The last time was after killing the Light Spider, she stood behind Gu Jianuo.
These inadvertent things are all suspicious to Xu Le.
The problem is that these doubts seem too far-fetched and too vague. Not to mention evidence, they are not even substantial.
But is the lack of evidence a problem
For others, yes, but for the Red Moon Warlock, not at all.
"I hope you're not."
Xu Le did not hesitate, and despite the headache, he injected the already limited spiritual energy into the card.
"Is Li Shunliu Luo Juya's man?"
Red Card-Heart
Mistakes, denials, bloody lessons.
"It's not? Did I guess wrong?"
Xu Le was a little surprised to see this result. If there was no problem with Li Shunliu, that would be the best result.
But he soon calmed down.
“Not enough.”
After taking a few breaths, he was very tired, but he still had to continue divination.
"Is Li Shunliu's mission to kill..." Xu Le paused.
His spiritual energy has been overdrawn too much. If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the last divination.
So he needs to get more information from this question.
So he changed the question again:
"Does Li Shunliu's mission require him to kill Gu Jianuo?"
Red Card-Angel
Affirmative, correct, very good agreement.
This result surprised Xu Le.
"Oh no, there are more people who want Gu Jianuo to die... than just Luo Juya."
Just as he was about to go back, Xu Le's body swayed and he had to lean against the wall to avoid falling.
After this divination, Xu Le covered his head and closed his eyes. He was too tired, but he had to go back. Things were worse than he had imagined.
Taking out the Zion mechanical stick as a crutch, Xu Le hurriedly walked out of the alley.
Li Shunliu, who was silent, suddenly looked up at Xu Le and asked nervously:
"Xu Le, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Shu was stunned and looked behind him.
But when Xu Le saw Li Shunliu's gradually cold eyes, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"Behind the tree brother!"
Li Shunliu on this side has raised his gun and pointed it at Gu Jianuo.
Wang Shu and Li Shunliu were already very familiar with each other. In fact, he realized the problem the moment he turned his head.
He had already taken Xu Le's reminder to heart.
But in his heart, he still held a glimmer of hope.
I hope my teammates are okay.
Wang Shu immediately turned around, pulled out his gun and pointed it at Li Shunliu, but it was too late!
Bang, bang, bang! Bang, bang, bang!
The two men fired continuously. Li Shunliu's gun fired first, and Wang Shu's bullet hit Li Shunliu.
Li Shunliu's eyes showed some disappointment and some relief.
Her bullets hit a layer of materialized iron blocks in front of Gu Jianuo, and all four bullets were blocked by the iron blocks, which was the reason for her disappointment.
Phew!
The straw man's sickle that was spinning and flying behind him instantly cut off Li Shunliu's gun-holding arm.
But this doesn't seem to stop Li Shunliu's murderous intent.
Wang Shu and Xu Le had already seen that Li Shunliu's other hand had already grasped two bottles, one purple and one green, and poured them directly into his mouth.
It's an alchemical bomb!
At this distance, even if Gu Jianuo had defensive relics, he would definitely die.
Xu Le in the distance covered his head, using the last bit of his spiritual energy to control the Scarecrow of Life.
The deadly sickle instantly pierced Li Shunliu's chest.
"Come back to me!" Xu Le covered his head and tried his best to control the scarecrow.
"Beichen..."
After Li Shunliu whispered, her eyes gradually lost color. The Scarecrow of Life behind her was already dragging her backwards with its sickle.
Wang Shu knocked Gu Jianuo to the ground in an instant, and Gu Jianuo's alchemical iron wall rose up at the same time, blocking in front.
boom!
An alchemical bomb powerful enough to blow up a mine exploded not far from the two men.
The roar and impact swept the entire street.
The air was filled with thick smoke.
…
Bai Jing and others who were developing the inner streets of Baixia Town also heard the two explosions.
The first explosion was inside the building, and the second was caused by Li Shunliu.
Gu Beichen's expression was somewhat uncertain.
What on earth did Xu Le's four-man team encounter that necessitated two violent explosions in succession
Blow up the mountain? But there are no mountains here.
"Captain, Xu Le and the others."
Gu Beichen hesitated.
"Xu Le and the others have their own mission, and we have ours, so let's continue."
Bai Jing was not shaken by Xu Le's situation.
She couldn't be shaken either.
Gan's divination was still vivid in her mind. She had already prepared for the divination result of the Black Sheep Girl.
“Keep going.”
Gu Beichen gritted his teeth and finally nodded:
"yes."
On the other side, Block 1 where several people were.
Exhausted Xu Le stood up after resting for a while. He leaned on his crutches and slowly walked towards the center of the explosion.
"Brother Shu? Miss Gu?"
"I'm here."
Gu Jianuo's timid voice appeared not far away. Xu Le hurried over and found that Gu Jianuo was in good condition.
But Wang Shu beside her had a bloody mess on his back. He must have used his body to block the impact of the explosion.
"Brother Shu? Brother Shu! Where's your medicine?"
Xu Le's attitude was a bit fierce, and Gu Jianuo was a little overwhelmed by his yelling.
“Yes, here.”
Xu Le also realized that there was something wrong with his tone, so he sighed and apologized:
"Feel sorry."
"It's okay, I know you're worried about him. Is he okay?"
"The injury is quite serious, but Brother Shu is very strong and your medicine is very effective, so he should be fine."
Xu Le was not exaggerating, it was just that the effect of Gu Jianuo's medicine was really outrageous.
Apply it on the wound to stop bleeding quickly.
However, Xu Le now has to clean the wound on Wang Shu's back.
Taking out a dagger, disinfectant, medicine, etc., Xu Le began to treat the wound on Wang Shu's back.
They are mainly explosion injuries and burns, which are quite troublesome to deal with.
During the cleaning process, Gu Jianuo suddenly asked:
"Student Xu Le, that woman just now... was coming for me, right?"
"Yes, I do."
"I'm sorry to trouble you."
Xu Le took a deep breath, even though all the troubles were caused by the appearance of this woman.
But can he put all the blame on this woman
It's meaningless.
How could he not understand at this point that there was definitely something wrong with the identity of this level 3 alchemist.
Gu Jianuo can’t get into any trouble now. If anything happens to her, it will be the biggest trouble.
It's not just trouble for him and Wang Shu, but trouble for the entire Team 6.
Xu Le didn't dare to think of a worse situation.
The people in the upper city have too many tricks up their sleeves.
While Xu Le was silent, Wang Shu, who was lying on the ground, had already woken up. He ignored Gu Jianuo and just asked calmly:
"Xu Le, go see how Shun Liu is doing."
And Xu Le’s answer was also very simple.
"there is none left."
Yes, no more.
The alchemical bomb can blow up mountains and the earth. If it explodes at such a close distance, there won’t be many fragments of corpses left.
"knew."
Wang Shu's breathing was a little trembling. He didn't know whether it was because of the pain from Xu Le treating his wound or because of Li Shunliu's death.
Wang Shu has known Li Shunliu longer than he has known Gu Beichen.
Despite all these experiences, she has always been a qualified teammate.
Everything is fine, but unfortunately...
"Xu Le, help me up."
"Is that okay?"
"no problem."
Xu Le helped Wang Shu up. Wang Shu looked at the pit not far away and closed his eyes.
"Give me the gauze."
"Can't you wrap it in gauze now?"
"Just give it to me. I know my own situation well and can handle it."
Xu Le did not refute Wang Shu. They were both men, and being fussy would only disgust people. He asked directly:
"You want to leave? Are you sure you can?"
"Yes I am sure, Captain, give the orders."
Wang Shu wrapped himself with gauze with great pain and called out the word "captain" to Xu Le for the first time.
With a lot of determination in his eyes, Xu Le nodded:
“If you can, then we will just give up the pioneer mission in Block 1.
Try to catch up with the captain and the others before dark. How long will it take you to recover, Brother Shu?"
Wang Shu looked at his condition.
"It will probably take about an hour, how about you?"
"One hour to be able to move normally, two hours to recover initially, and three hours to be in a relatively normal state."
Wang Shu was just injured, but Xu Le was completely exhausted, so he needed more time to rest.
"So how long do you think you should rest?"
Xu Le hesitated for a while and said:
“Well, let’s rest for two and a half hours and then set off, abandoning the mission and going to find the captain.
And... Gu Beichen."
