Chapter 309: Rescuing People from Hot Springs
Chapter 309: Rescuing People from Hot Springs
Xiao was hanging on a tall building near the hot spring bathing area, looking down into the bathing area from a high vantage point. The first thing that caught his eye was a large area of crimson.
So the hot spring is bleeding?
Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, focusing continuously, and soon he noticed the human body fragments floating in the pool.
Someone got ripped off?
Did those monsters sneak into the city?
Seeing this, a doubt arose in Xiao’s heart.
If it was a monster from across the sea that was inside, why did the soldiers just surround it instead of going in to deal with it?
not enough people?
Moreover, there were at least a dozen people wandering around the hot spring. If there were monsters inside, why didn't they hide?
If the monster had been destroyed, why did the soldiers lock up the people in the soup yard and not let them out?
The wandering crowd had strange postures, and they seemed to be taming their limbs. Their movements were very uncoordinated, which made Xiao feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity and uneasiness. He seemed to have seen this scene before.
Just as Xiao was searching for this familiar scene in his mind, a scream came from afar. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman running out of the house next to the hot spring.
The appearance of the woman was like a red-hot iron rod dipped into cold water. The wandering crowd suddenly became excited. They rushed towards the woman like zombies seeing a fresh brain, not giving her any time to react. They submerged her figure in the blink of an eye.
Xiao's eyelids jumped. Even from a distance, he could vaguely feel the fierce and violent aura coming from these people.
Are the people inside crazy?
"The remnants of the demon?" Green Xiao's slightly puzzled voice sounded in his mind, and Xiao immediately recalled the familiar scene.
When there was a mosquito monster in Licheng, the people affected by it behaved very similarly to the madmen in the hot spring, and the people in front of them even looked crazier.
Has the corruption of Lingshi spread into the city?
This situation seems to have only occurred in hot spring baths for the time being, and the medium is hot spring water?
This is the final stage of the stalemate between Xiao and humans, and he has no idea of the terrible things that will happen next.
"It seems that in order to prevent the corrupted people from roaming around the city, they simply locked up the normal people in the hot springs."
"If this continues, all normal people will be killed."
Xiao's body, hanging on the building, swayed slightly, looking for the blind spot of the garrisoned soldiers.
If we go in to rescue someone and are seen by the soldiers, it will be very difficult to explain.
At this moment, Xiao suddenly saw a corrupted citizen approaching the wall and starting to climb over it, but before his head emerged from the top of the wall, he was bounced down by the air.
"Is there a barrier?"
Xiao's little movements stopped.
If he wanted to go in, he would have to break the barrier, but doing so would inevitably lead to a conflict with the soldiers outside. If he was not careful, the infected people in the bathhouse might run out, meet the soldiers outside, and be killed.
Based on past experience, these people should still be able to be saved as long as the culprit is killed.
As for the culprit...
Snow Shadow, the sheep-headed orc, is a second-level order user. Not to mention that it is impossible to find it now, even if it is found, its emperor-level strength is not something that ordinary people can beat. Anyway, Xiao can't get involved and can only save his life at most.
However, if it is a red goblin, maybe it's worth a try.
There is no upper limit to the improvement of Jingyao Nuo Dance, and Xiao cannot sustain its side effects for too long, but it is different for Red Xiao.
Xiao's upper limit is the upper limit of his body's endurance. When his body can no longer withstand the backlash, he will fall into a coma in order to protect himself, and the Jingyao Nuo Dance will be automatically interrupted.
Red Xiao can start the demon-subduing ceremony regardless of his own life or death. Theoretically, as long as he persists long enough, he can improve his strength to the same level as Snow Shadow and can fight against him.
Speaking of Red Xiao, Xiao felt a little worried when he thought of the two methods Huang Guxuan mentioned.
He shouldn't have disbelieved Hong Xiao's words, but now thinking back carefully, there seemed to be something wrong with Hong Xiao at that time.
Although Hong Xiao said that he wanted to meditate and cultivate himself alone, I would still go and take a look when I am free at night.
Xiao shook his head to shake off the thoughts of running away.
Should this person save himself or not?
"If it's the remnants of the demon god, I might be able to find a way."
Perhaps because he encountered something familiar, Green Xiao showed a hint of positivity, "I know a magic that can remove the evil spirits that possess mortals."
"As for how to sneak in quietly, I can open a passage directly to the inside."
"?" Although Xiao was still confused, he quickly transferred the body control to Green Xiao.
Seeing Green Xiao use the Wind Wheel to tear a dark crack in front of him, a lot of questions suddenly popped up in Xiao's mind.
Is there such a use for the two wind wheels?
Why can't I?
Could this be the difference between “the plot” and “what I have”?
Green Xiao doesn’t have the mind-reading ability of Red Xiao, so he doesn’t know what Xiao is thinking at the moment. He stepped into the rift, and the next moment he appeared next to the hot spring.
As soon as he stood firm, he groaned and muttered through gritted teeth: "With less than 20% of my strength... is it still a bit difficult to use it?"
At this time, Xiao was still immersed in the problem and did not notice what Green Xiao said.
The green goblin took a deep breath, raised his head and looked around. His appearance immediately attracted the attention of the victims. Seeing this sudden alien, they were stunned for a moment, then rushed forward with a roar.
The green goblin seemed to be unable to see their ferocious movements. He closed his eyes, and with a faint fluorescent light flashing on his fingertips, he wrote something in the air.
The hem of his clothes moved without wind, and just as fingers covered in blood and flesh were about to touch his back, he finally opened his eyes and put his hands together.
"Disperse!"
The invisible air wave spread out in all directions with him as the center. Those who were swept by the air wave had wisps of black air gushing out of them, and the ferocity on their faces was gradually replaced by confusion.
But soon, they showed ferocious expressions again and continued to pounce on the green goblin.
boom!
The sound of flesh colliding could be heard in the yard, mixed with the faint sound of bones breaking.
At the critical moment, the green goblin disappeared from the crowd, and people finally collided with each other.
"It doesn't work?" Looking at the people knocked to the ground, Green Goblin frowned slightly.
"It doesn't matter. Although this thing looks like the remnants of a demon, it's not a demon after all." Xiao comforted.
"Yeah." A hint of disappointment flashed across Green Xiao's eyes.
He cast another spell to freeze the people on the ground, and after sweeping the hot spring stained with blood, he walked towards the row of houses next to the hot spring without looking back.
After a while, he brought out five people.
These people huddled together and followed him closely. As soon as they stepped out of the house and saw the scene in the yard, especially those people whose clothes had red stripes and exuded a dangerous aura, their already bloodless faces became even paler. The children among them even subconsciously grabbed Green Xiao's clothes.
Just when Green Goblin was about to repeat his old trick and tear open a space crack to take these people out, a voice suddenly stopped him.
"Stop, you can't take them out!"
Hearing the sound, Green Xiao turned his head. The door of the bathhouse had been opened at some point. A tall man was standing at the door. He was wearing black armor that covered every part of his body except his head. The armor was also carved with intricate patterns. He did not look like an ordinary soldier.
He put one hand on the hilt of the sword, his dark face tense, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know how you got in and what your purpose is, but they can't leave here."
