Chapter 351 Where are the people?
Chapter 351 Where are the people?
Looking at the dying Snow Shadow in front of him with his body pierced by the gun shadow, Green Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
It is not an easy task to catch a strong man who only wants to escape, even if he is at the end of his strength, especially when there are a lot of disasters blocking the way.
Green Goblin's body was covered in blood, but it was not his blood, but that of the disasters. After all, except for his strength which had not yet recovered, his other conditions were very good. With the strength of these disasters, they were not enough to hurt him.
However, to Green Goblin, the beast tide was like ants not only in strength, but also in numbers. He had no means to destroy the beast tide in one fell swoop, and dealing with the obstacles along the way took him a lot of effort.
Suddenly, Green Goblin seemed to sense something, turned around, and saw a black shadow rushing towards him. He had no time to react and was knocked to the ground with a "bang".
He subconsciously wanted to kick the thing off his body, but finally retracted his legs.
These are things that are nourished by other souls in the body. It would be difficult to explain if they were injured.
Chixing looked like he hadn't seen his master for hundreds of years. His tail swung like a propeller, his nose kept nudging Green Goblin's face, and he made continuous "weeping" sounds from his throat. His whole body was filled with excitement.
Green Mandrill had never been treated like this before. In the past, small animals would avoid him when they saw him. He was a little confused for a moment, until Red Star licked his face with saliva, he finally reacted, raised his hand, pinched the mouth that was swaying in front of him, and pushed Red Star's head away.
The Wind Sickle Weasel arrived a step later, and seeing this, he stopped, suppressed his excitement, put on a calm look, and slowly walked to the crook of the green goblin's neck, curled up inside, and made a silent laugh at the rejected Red Star.
After a while, Green Xiao came to the hot spring in front of the temple, scooped up the spring water to wash his face. The coldness accumulated on his body due to running in the wind and snow without any protection was immediately swept away, and his body felt warm.
After giving the location of Snow Shadow, Xiao fainted and has been silent ever since - although Green Xiao did not find Snow Shadow at that location in the end, and instead encountered a teleporting snowstorm - Green Xiao could only continue to control his body's movements.
Likewise, because Xiao wasn't awake, he couldn't deal with the Snow Shadow.
The method taught by the Mountain God to seize Snow Shadow's power requires the power of the Order, but Red Xiao only shared the power with Xiao and not with him.
"Young man, why are you the only one back?"
Just after Green Xiao finished washing his face, he heard a slightly vicissitudes of life voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lao Li who had come out of the mountain temple at some point. He was leaning against the door frame, looking at him from afar.
There were many charred corpses scattered around the mountain temple, and the snow on the ground had almost melted. It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place here after Xiao and Mozuche left.
"There are too many enemies in the mountains. They stay in safe places and don't move with me." He shook off the remaining water on his hands and replied.
After restoring Luoxing to normal, Green Xiao discovered that disasters were everywhere, as if endless. There was no safe place nearby, except for the Tianchi Lake on the top of the mountain.
Disaster would not come near there, so Lu Xiao asked Mo Zuche to stay by the Tianchi Lake with Luoxing, while he went to chase Xueying.
Chixing, who was squatting at the feet of the green goblin, shook his fur, and a white figure flew out from over its head.
Then, it walked happily to Lao Li's side, and looked at the green goblin as if asking for credit, as if saying, look, I protected the person you asked me to protect very well, come and praise me!
Green Xiao ignored him, but Old Li continued, "I'm glad you're okay. When are we going back?"
Green Xiao glanced at the dying Snow Shadow, then looked at the lost Red Star, and finally returned his gaze to the calm water surface and replied: "Wait, I have something else to do."
It didn't feel right to send people down the mountain with Xueying, but he was also worried about letting Chixing escort them back to the city. He could only wait until Xiao woke up or the mountain god arrived.
"Okay, let's wait a little longer." Green Xiao's answer was within Lao Li's expectations, and he gladly accepted it.
After a while, he asked again: "Have you seen the mountain god?"
"seen."
"How is He?"
Green Goblin turned his head and looked at Lao Li. He didn't know how to answer this question. Fortunately, at this time a small wave of beasts wandered nearby. They smelled the breath of living people and roared and ran towards the direction of the mountain temple, successfully diverting the attention of the two men.
Down the mountain.
Ye Lingchuan, who was forced to turn back because he got lost, returned to the command center and was checking the battle situation on the entire front.
His adjutant said, "The current situation is very clear. The beast tide cannot break through our defenses. In addition to Xuan Zu's intervention, it is also thanks to Xiao's suggestions for improvement."
"We can defend against external enemies, but what about internal enemies?" Ye Lingchuan put the battle report on the table. "If the safe survival resources are delivered one day later, more civilians in the city will be contaminated and transformed. By then, before the external enemies can break in, our internal situation will already be riddled with holes."
He rubbed his brows anxiously. He was already annoyed that the decapitation operation could not be carried out, and something went wrong with the arrangement.
In this environment, if you want to transport fresh water and food resources for the people in a city, it is undoubtedly most convenient to use space magic weapons. However, space magic weapons of this specification are expensive and extremely limited in number. It is impossible to equip every first-tier city with them. Therefore, the final process is that cities in need of survival resources report their applications to the logistics department, and then the logistics department will distribute them uniformly.
Ye Lingchuan had reported the application as soon as possible and the supplies had been prepared, but a beast tide suddenly broke out and the escort team was stopped.
The adjutant was a little embarrassed: "The team that could transport resources was stopped by the beast tide, and we can't send extra people to support them."
"Then find someone else." Ye Lingchuan paused and asked, "Where is Xiao?"
The adjutant replied, "We had looked for him before you came back, but couldn't find him. He didn't seem to be in the city. Not only that, but Falling Star wasn't there either. Finally, we contacted some members of the Adventure Guild, and they were willing to go and escort the team."
"Nonsense!" Ye Lingchuan slammed the table. "What kind of strength do they have? Are they going to feed the beast tide?"
At the same time, he wondered in his heart, "Where did they go at this time? Could they have gone into the mountains?"
The adjutant replied: "There are two king-level ones, and the rest are saint-level ones."
"Can they fight through the beast tide alone like Xiao did?"
The adjutant muttered quietly: "No."
"Forget it, I'll think of another way." Ye Lingchuan sighed, waved his hand to let the adjutant leave, and thought alone in the room.
In fact, there are ways to do this, one of which is to ask for help.
For example, let Xuanzu take action, or ask the higher-ups to dispatch strong men nearby for support.
But this is somewhat difficult.
The second is teleportation, crossing the beast tide blocking the way and teleporting the escort team directly into the city.
This is still very difficult.
There are only a handful of strong people who have the ability to travel through space, and they rarely show up. Magical weapons that can teleport people and objects over long distances are extremely rare. Even if they exist, people may not be willing to use them to transport survival resources.
Ye Lingchuan thought about it and remembered Mo Zuche. He wanted to see what this survival master who had survived many dangerous ruins thought, so he tried to call him with the communication stone, but no one answered.
He went to ask the person in charge of security in the city, and the reply he got was that he had not seen Mo Zuche.
Ye Lingchuan was a little confused for a moment.
No, where are all the people? Where have they gone?
Finally, he had no choice but to go find Xuanzu.
