"Let's try it. What if there are some people hiding in underground safe rooms in any city? After all, it is also the "company" in charge of this entire colonial star. There must be an emergency safety preparation system internally to ensure that Those who were not allowed survived.”
Bai Zhi put his left hand on his forehead and half-closed his eyes.
"After that matter is resolved, we will try to explore towards the center of the city. We can always find some clues."
"Hmm... that's okay."
After thinking for a moment, Kenai nodded.
"But having said that, what are we going to do with the reincarnation team and Father Adam? Although the reincarnations are hiding like mice, their abilities are actually very scary. Let's not talk about the book world before. , like the one at the back of the Death Arena, where so many weird immortals were imprisoned in one breath, which is actually a bit outrageous. If I hadn't been able to crack the locking mechanism of that Death Arena, God knows what would have happened. To what extent."
"Well... We don't need to worry about the priest. After all, Pluto and the others are here. It is natural for Pluto and the others to deal with such betrayers. As for Adam, even if he was released from the death arena by those reincarnations , he is also alone now and cannot make any big waves."
After a moment of reflection, Bai Zhi opened his mouth and answered.
"It would be fine if he knew better and hid, but if he dares to come over and cause trouble for me, there is a need for a gatekeeper in the underworld. But the reincarnation team that is always hiding in the dark is indeed A big trouble…”
Bai Zhi lowered his head slightly and pondered in his heart.
So far, he has had a few contacts with the reincarnation team that came to chase him, but in the end, he only identified two members of the opponent, that is, the twins.
A mature reincarnation team has at least five members. In other words, even if it is calculated based on the minimum five people, there are still three people in the reincarnation team hidden in the dark.
Just the abilities of the twins who were exposed are already very abnormal. If the remaining three people are of this level and stronger than the twins, it will be really difficult to tell.
The most important thing is that the other party has been hiding in the dark, which makes Bai Zhi feel very unhappy.
Logically speaking, the environment here on the colonial star is so bad. There is no safe place except the urban area and the mining area. Under the supervision of the shadow guards who were sent out in large numbers to act as eyeliners, those people should have been captured long ago. He should find them, just like the practitioners he has marked and sheltered one by one.
But the problem is, let alone finding the hiding place of the reincarnation team, in the past few days, he has not been able to find any clues about the reincarnation team.
It's as if they have always been hidden from the world when they don't take action... Could it be the ability of one of them
“Crunch!!!”
While Bai Zhi was deep in thought, the Type 3 machine suddenly came to a sudden brake with a brake sound that made people feel extremely sore.
Bai Zhi was doing better, like Kenai, who couldn't dodge and was hit directly on the soundproof wall in front of him due to inertia.
Fortunately, the attributes of the players are far superior to ordinary people. Otherwise, if ordinary people came here unexpectedly, their necks would probably be broken by now.
"What, what happened?"
Covering his nose with one hand and knocking on the soundproof panel, Kenai asked depressedly to the Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX who was driving in front of him.
In order not to interfere with their conversation, the front and back seats were completely soundproofed when Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX was driving, so for a while, Kenai didn't know what was going on.
"Someone brave is attacking us, just sit back and I'll come as soon as I can!!"
After saying these words quite loudly, the tall figure of Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX had already walked out of the car door.
"Fuck you, you bastard who is blocking the road! Come and fight!!"
Vaguely, in the majestic rainstorm outside, Bai Zhi and Kenai vaguely heard such a roar.
Bai Zhi: "..."
Kenai: "..."
The climate in the wilderness is constantly changing. Before, they were still in a vast snowfield covered by ice and snow, but now, it was raining continuously outside.
The rain curtain is deep and the rain is pouring.
In this almost continuous rainstorm, Bai Zhi and the others' sight was greatly obstructed. They could only vaguely hear the terrifying roars of beasts coming from the rainstorm... and the sounds coming from the sea of dung. Crazy Maggot EX’s hilarious laughter is very contagious.
One moment it was "Lower your head!!", and the next moment it was "Shout louder!!". Listening to these crazy laughter coming from the rainstorm, Bai Zhi and Kenai seriously suspected that the other party seemed to be playing something very strange. Something novel.
Approximately dozens of minutes later, along with a plaintive sound, the noise coming from the heavy rain gradually stopped.
Holding something that looked a bit like a fox with its head smashed by a hammer in his hand, the shirtless Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX strode towards the car.
"...a fox blocking the road?"
Seeing what looked like a fox's corpse in the hand of Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX in front of him, Kenai couldn't help being slightly stunned.
"Uh... This guy used to be quite big, but after I smashed his head, he ended up like this for some reason."
After scratching his head, Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX looked a little confused, but soon, as if he remembered something, he spoke quickly.
"By the way, I found a cave over there. That should be my destination this time, but the situation inside is a bit..."
"Let's go and see it together."
Bai Zhi glanced at the fox corpse in the opponent's hand, shook his head slightly, and stepped into the heavy rain.
This restricted area of life has a hilly structure, and there are many natural caves between the gaps in the ground. According to the location previously located by the shadow guard, more than ten people have chosen this place as a temporary residence.
Bai Zhi's purpose of driving here was to contain these people into the Demon Refining Pot.
It's a pity that he came a step too late.
"Is this...the entire army wiped out?"
Looking at the scene in the cave, Kenai frowned slightly, and unconsciously reached out to cover his nose.
The scene in this cave actually looks quite cozy on the surface, with the fire burning quietly and the barbecue being placed on the fire sizzling.
In the large pot placed on the fire next to it, bubbles kept rising, the pieces of meat were floating in the rich soup, and the rich meaty aroma filled the cave.
… Of course, these are just appearances.
If you look carefully, you can find that the meat roasting on the fire is a human body, and the pieces of meat floating in the iron pot are terrifying human heads with pieces of meat falling off one by one.
-This cave is like a cannibal’s on-site cooking and slaughtering scene.
"Almost, we're a step too late."
Frowning, he waved his hand towards the fire and buried all those things in the pile of rocks. Bai Zhi turned to look at the fox corpse in the hand of Dung Sea Mad Maggot EX.
Based on the footprints and related traces left in the cave, the culprit of the cruel scene before him was actually obvious.
"Eating people...where did this ghost thing come from?"
Looking at the fox corpse, which still didn't take its hands off its nose, Kenai had a look of disgust on his face.
"These are dignified practitioners after all. They shouldn't be killed by a little fox, right?"
Since it was raining heavily outside, the smell of the sticky stew in the cave lingered for a long time, making her feel nauseous.
"It's not a little fox, it's a big fox."
After glancing at Kenai who was holding his nose, Bai Zhi opened his ghost realm after thinking for a moment.
Soon, the wind and rain from the outside world swept away by the ghost realm swept away the strange smell in the cave.
"Okay, just throw this thing away, it looks disgusting."
After giving Bai Zhi a slightly grateful look, Kenai put down his hand and spoke to the Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX in front of him.
"This thing looks unlucky."
"But you can eat it...then it's up to you."
Sighing with regret, Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX reluctantly threw the manual body to the rocks that Bai Zhi had dug up.
… He really felt that it was a pity to lose.
After all, the flesh of this fox is very firm at first glance, but he originally wanted to light a fire and have a barbecue...
"Where do you think this fox came from?"
A slightly speechless glance at the Dung Sea Mad Maggot EX in front of him, and his body silently took a few steps away from him. Kenai turned to look at Bai Zhi beside him.
"Could this fox be one of those filthy beasts from the mountains and seas like Zhu Yan from the mountains and seas realm?"
"…No, this fox was created by these people."
Bai Zhi turned his gaze away from the rock wall and shook his head.
"In the beginning, this fox that suddenly appeared was very well-behaved, and because it looked very cute, it quickly became loved and sought after by these people. But unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After success, After gaining the trust of these people, the fox found an opportunity to stun these people, and then began to feast... Judging from the previous situation, this is a very smart fox who also pays attention to rituals."
"Uh...how do you know these things?"
Listening to the story told by Bai Zhi, Kenai was stunned for a while.
"It feels like you are watching with your own eyes..."
"I didn't witness it with my own eyes, but the rock walls and ground of this cave did. They told me this story themselves."
Shaking his head, Bai Zhi pointed at the rock wall beside him.
"The situation has begun to get worse. The IQs of these things born from desire are constantly rising. Before the worst happens, we must speed up the pace."
"What's the worst case scenario?"
Because of someone's extremely jumping words, Kenai successfully confused himself.
... Just from such a short story about a tragedy that happened in this cave before, can we speculate that the situation is gradually getting worse
"Let's go, let's talk as we go. Next, we won't drive. We will just use the ghost zone to move. This will make it faster."
After waving his hand and signaling to the Dung Sea Crazy Maggot EX who was still staring at the fox corpse over there, Bai Zhi once again opened his ghost realm.
- He is already very skilled in things like leading people in the ghost realm.
… … … … … … … … …
In the midst of the violent storm, three figures were walking on the wilderness.
It was raining heavily all around, but these three people were not stained by the rain at all. Although it looked like they were just walking forward, every time they took a step forward, the next step would follow. Kilometers away.
In fact, if you use the ghost realm to take people, you don't need to be in the ghost realm to walk by yourself. You can just teleport directly.
However, firstly, Bai Zhi felt that life should pay attention to the sense of ritual. Secondly, the former has a fairy spirit, while the latter only has a Yin spirit. It is better to shrink into an inch like an immortal like this.
Walking in the rainstorm is very poetic and picturesque.
"Okay, can we talk now? What is the worst case scenario?"
He followed Bai Zhi step by step, and after walking a few steps, Kenai couldn't help but ask.
As for Dung Sea Mad Maggot EX, he still fulfilled the professional qualities of a gold-medal bodyguard very well. He followed behind from a distance, quite consciously leaving a great deal of personal space for the insured.
"Didn't you notice? The IQs of those things born from human desires are getting higher and higher."
The God's Perspective was pulled to a high place early, and while he was distractedly controlling the surrounding environment through the God's Perspective and the Ghost Realm, Bai Zhi opened his mouth and answered.
"Uh... I didn't find it."
After thinking for a moment, Kenai shook his head honestly.
"If you say so, shouldn't your two secretaries be the ones who should be most vigilant? I used their method to create a spirit behind the scenes, but it turned out to be a puppet..."
"... They are special cases and cannot be lumped together with other things."
After staring at the innocent-looking opponent for a while, Bai Zhi shook his head.
"If you had paid attention to the several fantasy materialization events that occurred in the mining camp before, you should be able to intuitively detect various changes. The monsters that were first born had no so-called rationality, only intuitive The desire to kill is easy to deal with. But later on, especially when the nightmare materialized that night, the monsters born at that time already had a certain amount of intelligence. Not only did they know how to hide themselves, they would also consciously inhabit others to reproduce. …”
When he said this, Bai Shang paused slightly.
"All in all, as time goes by, the monsters that emerge from people's fantasies are becoming more and more intelligent. The fox that was killed by the dung sea maggot was a fairly typical example. example."
"Uh...so what does this mean?"
Kenai still didn’t understand.
"As your IQ gets higher, you will get higher. At most, it will only make you a little more difficult to deal with. This is not the worst situation, right?"
"Yeah?"
Looking up at the continuous rain in the distance, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"But what if these monsters born from fantasy can copy themselves, or even create other monsters through their own will?"
"This... hiss..."
Just after imagining this possibility in his mind, Kenai suddenly took a breath of air.
"Wait, I understand your concerns. If this happens, then this place will be completely finished."
"That's right, when the time comes, the monsters will be endlessly killed, and they will also be able to proliferate infinitely and recreate themselves. What's even more terrifying is that their strength will continue to increase with the improvement of their intelligence... This is an extremely bad situation. A vicious cycle.”
When he said this, Bai Zhi reached out and pressed his temples.
"What makes people feel helpless is that this kind of thing is bound to happen. All we can do now is to delay the arrival of that moment as much as possible."
"In that case, we should call others to come out and help."
