Wu Chan and Tie Zhanma decided on two things first.
First, picking hell mandala is the most important thing for Wu Zen. If you encounter a vampire on the way and come to take revenge, Wu Chan can help. If she didn't show up, Wu Chan wouldn't take the initiative to look for her.
Secondly, Wu Chan wants to monopolize the hell mandala. To be fair, all the demon corpses and sinful cells in the process of climbing Poison Mountain belong to Iron War Horse.
The three Iron Warhorses said there was no problem at all.
Ma Sang wanted revenge more than Chu Kuang.
Chu Kuang had only joined Iron War Horse for less than a year, and he didn't have a deep relationship with anyone. He wanted to avenge Du Guang alone.
For Ma Sang, he wanted to avenge three people. Du Guang and Bu San Bu Si have followed Iron War Horse from birth to death since its inception. Tao Yan not only killed people, but also chopped off Ma Sang's hands and feet, and even killed all the elders of Iron War Horse.
He knew that he was no match for the vampires, so if he tested Wu Chan, if he returned to the city, then Iron War Horse would have no choice but to return to the city to recharge his batteries. Since Wu Chan stayed, Ma Sang must take a ride on Wu Chan.
Everyone started to pack their luggage. Wu Chan searched the entire store and only found seven flying knives. The remaining one was probably taken away by Tao Yan. Iron War Horse originally had four pickup trucks, but now it has decided to abandon two. Ma Sang drove one and Tu Shuang drove another. Wu Chan agreed to accompany Chu Kuang because he valued his loyalty, so he confiscated the car keys at all, and Chu Kuang continued to ride the heavy motorcycle.
The team left the store and found a hillside. Everyone dug a big pit and put the bodies of Du Guang and the others in. In order to prevent them from being dug out of the soil and eaten by wild beasts in the future, Ma Sang set a fire.
Fire shot into the sky. Everyone mourned in silence, and Tu Shuang shed tears.
The convoy got back on the road and headed towards the city center. There were tall buildings in the suburbs, but they were not tall enough. During the day, the old city always exudes an eerie calm. Wild animals have long been accustomed to life here and regard evil as part of the ecological environment. The animals were more afraid of the steel monster with four round legs than evil spirits. They would panic and run away as soon as they heard the sound of wheels. But there is one type of animal that is just the opposite.
The road was broken by uplifted tree roots, causing the vehicle speed to be very slow. Wolves appeared at the top of the slopes on both sides of the road. They looked down for a while, then rushed down the hillside and chased the convoy. This is not a pack of wolves, but giant dogs of various varieties. They belong to a large branch of the "Legacy Beasts", and there are more of them closer to the center of the city.
When the poisonous rain of eternal night fell, large tracts of humans were poisoned to death, but various domestic pets survived. The strange ecological environment of the Miasma Sea allowed them to evolve and reproduce, and they were collectively called legacy beasts. The biggest change between them and before the disaster is their size. Hamsters that once fit in the palm of a human are now as big as basketballs, kittens have turned into tigers and leopards, and small snakes have turned into giant pythons. The small dogs of the past are now shaped like jackals, while the large dogs are as strong as cattle.
The giant dogs among the beasts left behind seem to have never realized that there has been a disaster in this world. They feel that they are living on the streets just because they were abandoned by their owners. Whenever they hear the sound of a car, they happily chase after them to see if their owners are coming to pick them up. Home.
But this is just human wishful thinking. There was once a fool who was so moved that he stopped the car to give these pets a warm hug. He got his wish and touched the furs, and then his head was chewed off.
The barking formed a sound wave behind the convoy. The giant dogs bypassed the trucks and pickup trucks and all chased Chu Kuang, who was riding a heavy motorcycle. The truth that it is better to wrap a man with iron than to wrap a man with iron is vividly reflected at this moment.
The road with many obstacles made it difficult to speed up the vehicle. The heavy motorcycle made a semicircle in front of him. Chu Kuang used his foot to brake. He picked up a steel rod and waited for the first giant dog to come to his death.
Seven or eight giant dogs that were as big as wolves were scattered around, some with eyes as big as walnuts and slender legs. Others bared their teeth and looked silly, with legs so short that their bellies scraped the floor. More than a dozen large giant dogs, as tall as strong bulls, were holding the line from behind. Some are completely white, while others are black and white, almost indistinguishable from wolves.
Wu Chan stopped the car, and Ma Sang's voice sounded on the intercom: "Brother Wu, there's no need to get out of the car to help."
Tu Shuang, who was in another pickup truck, said: "The nickname Chu Gou is not just because of his good nose."
Seeing that none of these giant dogs dared to attack, Chu Kuang spat in disdain.
"A dog is a dog, even if it grows to the size of a wolf, it is still a dog."
Wu Chan saw him stepping forward, but those giant dogs were hunching their backs and retreating step by step. No giant dog dared to move forward first. This is indeed unusual.
"A bunch of trash!"
Chu Kuang stamped his foot, and the giant dogs immediately trembled all over. The short-legged ones in the front row rolled over directly on the ground, exposing their bellies. The large black and white dogs in the back row still had a ferocious wolfish look on their faces, but they clamped their tails on their buttocks and pooped in place.
Wu Chan: "..."
He didn't want to be driving with dog poop on his wheels. Magic like shit luck does not require casting materials.
Wu Chan honked the horn.
Not only were the giant dogs not frightened, but they seemed to have found a target to vent their anger and pounced on the armored truck.
The sound of canine teeth gnawing at the steel plate armor made Wu Chan feel his teeth grinding.
Wu Chan is now a person that Chu Kuang admires very much. The car of the person he admires is besieged, and he cannot sit idly by and ignore it.
He hit the heads of these giant dogs with a steel rod and backed away with some knowledge. The large black and white giant dogs seemed to be encouraged and gnawed harder.
Their shoulders were almost as high as Chu Kuang's, and it was not difficult to imagine how big their mouths were. In just a few mouthfuls, the steel plate armor was covered with the giant dog's saliva.
As if he was afraid that Wu Chan would go on a killing spree, Chu Kuang used his true strength this time and kicked a large giant dog several meters away. It fell to the ground, its eyes staring blankly, as if it didn't know what happened. The few remaining large giant dogs were frightened and ran away, staring at Chu Kuang from a distance.
"What are you looking at? Get out of here!"
After Chu Kuang finished roaring, he found something rubbing against his calf. It was a giant dog with short legs. Seeing Chu Kuang lower his head, it lay on the ground with its belly turned out, sticking out its tongue with an expectant look on its face.
Wu Chan saw that Chu Kuang had even raised his feet, and then slowly put them down. He knelt down and rubbed the two giant dogs' bulging bellies perfunctorily, and said in a voice that only he and the giant dogs could hear: "I have business to do, and I don't have time to play with you."
The ears of those giant dogs perked up, and they retreated one after another as if they could understand human words. Some of them turned their heads to look over reluctantly. Chu Kuang waved his hand, and they ran away.
Chu Kuang got on the heavy motorcycle, and the team was back on the road.
Wu Chan never expected that the reason why Chu Kuang, a wild man like his name, was called Chu Dog was because his super power could communicate with dogs. No wonder he didn't use it in the battle with the vampires.
Wu Chan couldn't remember where he had heard such a saying. People who are liked by animals will never have bad nature.
Then Wu Chan wishes him that he will not be killed by the vampires.
