Chapter 1732: Taking the Lead
"Brother Jia, what happens after we fight in? Can we deal with that thing? If we can't deal with it, we will die in vain."
Liu Chao frowned and said that he was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that his sacrifice would be meaningless.
"You can't, but she can."
Jia Chan looked at Lianyi and said firmly.
After hearing this, Lianyi raised his eyes and said with a smile:
"Brother Jia, I didn't know you thought so highly of me."
"You are the most powerful person I have ever seen. You are so strong that you are not on the same level as us. If it were you, you should be able to do it."
Jia Chan said expressionlessly.
After hearing this, Ripple suddenly laughed:
"Brother Jia, I am more and more curious about your eyes now."
Jia Chan suddenly felt a chill down his spine, then coughed lightly and said:
"My eyes can see all energy. In my eyes, everything is composed of different types of energy. It is a collection of energy, but energy also has strengths and weaknesses. Obviously you are the strongest."
Jia Chan explained as calmly as possible that he was afraid that the other party would really dig out his eyes.
What he didn't say was that when he saw Ripple for the first time, his eyes were almost blinded. The other party was simply a luminous body, like the sun, which made him afraid to look directly.
He wanted to sense Ripple's energy form at close range before he decided to participate in this mission. Before, asking the other party to kill the little boy was also a test. He felt that Ripple saw through the other party's disguise when he saw the little boy. The result was that the other party acted very decisively, allowing him to verify his guess.
Xi Musheng was not happy, he said with a face:
"My sister's strength is my sister's business. This is no reason for you to push the task to my sister alone."
"No, Mu Sheng, you misunderstood. We are not pushing the task to your sister alone. We just hope that your sister can hold back the things in Xiaobai Building so that we have time to find and bring back the necessary equipment."
Su Ci immediately stood up to smooth things over.
These words made Xi Musheng's face feel much better, but he still didn't want his sister to bear the most difficult part. It was too dangerous.
Lianyi didn't care. These equipment were related to the research and development of crystal stones, and she was willing to contribute more.
Before they set off, the redemption mall of the survival game had returned to normal and points could be redeemed. As a result, some players would start to show up, which was not good news.
So she patted Xi Musheng on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Since Brother Jia said so, I will take over this heavy responsibility. After we enter the range of Xiaobai Building, you will be responsible for finding the equipment, and I will be responsible for dragging the thing. Mu Sheng will stay to assist me."
"Okay, no problem."
After the discussion, the group rested for a night and accelerated their entry into the nuclear leakage area the next day.
As soon as they entered this area, everyone smelled an extremely unpleasant rancid smell that made their brains ache.
Lin Jiong immediately stuffed two rose petals into each team member and asked them to use them to block their nostrils and stay awake.
"Team Lin, this mutated rose has finally worked."
Liu Chao joked, stuffed the petals into his nostrils, and then dared to breathe.
After everyone has adjusted to their condition, continue in depth.
Suddenly, a black object flashed in front of Su Ci. No one could see what it was, except Ripples. She just pursed her lips to express her displeasure with the object.
"Everyone, be careful, something is approaching us."
Everyone immediately formed a circle back to back and got ready for battle.
At this moment, Bai Tuo screamed and was pulled underground by an unknown thing.
Lin Jiong quickly threw out a vine with quick eyes and hands, and wrapped it around one of Bai Tuo's arms, preventing him from sinking into the ground.
Ripple did not look back, but was wary of what flashed by before. Jia Chan, Su Ci and Liu Chao, like Ripple, were looking around warily.
Xi Musheng said to Bai Tuo:
"Xiao Bai, you are an earth power user. Quickly solidify the earth around you, and then push yourself out."
Bai Tuo immediately did as he was told. What happened just now was so sudden that he didn't react for a moment.
Ripple said:
"That thing is coming!"
At this time, Bai Tuo had already stood up from the sunken ground.
Xi Musheng felt a dark shadow rushing toward him, and he almost instinctively swung his lightsaber to attack. This was also due to his sister's reaction training, which allowed him to attack immediately.
"Haw!"
With a scream, a black liquid burst out. Everyone immediately avoided the splashing black liquid. The next second, the unpleasant fishy smell filled their nostrils again.
The black thing still crawling on the ground attracted everyone's attention.
"What is this?"
Xi Musheng asked, suppressing his nausea.
"It seems to be a human being."
Liu Chao said.
"But he's too short. Why is his skin black?"
Bai Tuo objected.
"Look what's in his mouth."
Jia Chan suddenly interrupted.
"Is it a mouthpart?"
Su Ci said with some uncertainty.
"Then is he a human or an animal?"
"It should be a combination of the two!"
Ripple whispered.
This thing looked familiar to her. It looked like some kind of parasite in the world of cultivation. It entered the human body as an egg, and then grew up by sucking the spiritual power of the cultivator. In the end, it would make the host its puppet. It would then manipulate the puppet to suck the brains of more people, allowing itself to evolve rapidly. It was a very disgusting existence.
The lowest-level parasite should appear here, or it could be said that it had some kind of mutation after the nuclear leak, and then it could successfully control the infected living dead.
"Burn it! Let's be careful."
Lin Jiong said immediately.
This time, Xi Musheng threw a fireball obediently, killing the monster.
"Everyone, get ready. A group of these things are approaching us."
Jia Chan looked in a certain direction and immediately gave a warning.
Everyone was on alert again.
The sound of "chi chi chi" came from all directions. It was obvious that the parasite that had just been killed had called its companions.
"Get ready for battle!"
Everyone clenched their weapons.
At the moment the parasitic puppets appeared, all the superpowers quickly fell on the parasitic zombies. It was at this time that everyone saw clearly that the zombies without whites of their eyes had a half-meter-long mouthparts sticking out of their mouths. The top of the mouthparts was a suction cup, which seemed to be able to swallow them as long as they could suck any part of their bodies.
Xi Musheng's lightsaber directly cut off the evil mouthparts, followed by a fireball, which completely eliminated the opponent.
Su Ci used the wind power to wander around her teammates. Her speed was faster than these parasitic zombies. While dodging, she attacked with cold weapons. After seeing Xi Musheng's killing method, she also aimed the dagger at the sticking out mouthparts.
Bai Tuo solidified the ground where everyone was fighting in the first place to prevent those parasitic puppets from attacking them from underground. (End of this chapter)
