Chapter 166 Rest
The spatial energy surrounding his body receded, and Rossi, covered in sweat, opened a miniature domain, which could only weaken half of the Frankenstein's body.
Holding a water sword, Ruan Jingli seized the opportunity to use water to create mist and conceal her figure. To make it more realistic, she even created several water balls and launched them at the Stitches from different directions.
The water sword was not sharp, and Ruan Jingli's sword did not cut through its body. At this time, Luo Xi's power reserves were almost exhausted, but he still risked withdrawing the domain.
Spatial energy was channeled into the water sword, successfully cleaving through the thick layer of earth armor, but this strike was far too dangerous.
If Xing Xiao hadn't appeared in time and kicked the Stitched Monster, the water sword would have definitely struck the crystal core in its heart, causing everyone present to be killed.
With Ruan Jingli and Luo Xi being hoisted onto the vine wall, only Bai Miao and Li Xi remained below, still struggling.
Why is it a tough battle?
Because Li Xi was trapped in the illusion and could not get out of the scene where he personally killed Li Xuan, Bai Miao was left to face the speed-maximum-speed Frankenstein's monster alone.
If it weren't for his decent defense, he would have already been affected by the mutation, not to mention he had to protect Li Xi, who was standing still with empty eyes, immersed in the illusion.
"Li Xi didn't say much along the way; if she couldn't get through it..."
Everyone understood Luo Xi's unspoken words, but there was nothing they could do to help; Li Xi had to figure it out on her own.
After finishing the fresh dragon fruit, Ji Xiyun elegantly wiped the juice from her mouth, raised her hand to direct Xing Xiao and the other two to leave, indicating that they didn't need to continue helping the two of them.
In her eyes, Bai Miao was a mute; she rarely heard him say a word, and he did even less than he spoke in front of Li Xi.
"Without Xing Xiao, Bai Miao won't be able to hold on for long." If Li Xi can't get rid of the illusion in time, she will be left with another nightmare that she can't get rid of.
Li Xi, who remained in the illusion, watched helplessly as her brother died at her hands once again, and silently collapsed to her knees in tears.
Just as she was immersed in grief and unable to extricate herself, she suddenly heard Bai Miao call her name. In an instant, a glimmer of clarity appeared in her tear-filled eyes.
'elder brother.'
'Xixi, thank you'
The corpse in his arms gradually disappeared, carried away by the wind. His empty eyes regained their clarity, parted the mist, and he regained control of his body.
Bai Miao, who was struggling to hold on, was swatted away by a claw and lay not far in front of her, spitting out a mouthful of bright red blood.
"Bai Miao!"
Seeing that she had woken up, Bai Miao knelt on one knee, raised the golden sword with trembling hands, and prepared to once again defend against the stitched monster's attack.
Flames enveloped the Stitched Monster, and someone leaped forward to block it, their entire body covered in scorching flames, while their twin swords, wreathed in flames, slashed through the Stitched Monster's flesh.
The flames dancing in the wind ignited its fur, but feeling no pain, it did not change its goal and charged towards the weaker Bai Miao.
However, Li Xi didn't give it a chance to get close to Bai Miao at all. Just as Bai Miao was protecting her, she blocked the stitched monster that was rushing towards him.
"Do you think they'll end up together after this battle?"
Come to think of it, she's never watched anyone date in this kind of context before. Although it's a bit out of place, watching other people date is so much fun!
Ruan Jingli, who was drinking a small bottle of beer like water, smiled secretly. She had asked Li Xi privately if she knew what Bai Miao meant.
I remember Li Xi saying back then that Bai Miao was just a blockhead who didn't talk much and didn't have a strong presence in the team, but he was always there to protect her when she was in danger. It might be unlikely that she fell in love with Bai Miao, but it would be a lie to say that she didn't like him.
Thinking about what had happened recently, her smile faded. If it weren't for what happened with Li Xuan, Li Xi would have agreed to be with Bai Miao as long as he dared to ask!
A loud bang interrupted Ruan Jingli's thoughts. Looking down, she saw Li Xi supporting the seriously injured Bai Miao sitting in the ruins, and not far away was the Stitched Monster lying on the ground, unable to get up.
The ground wasn't safe at night, so they simply built a small hut on the vine wall, with a small lamp emitting a soft orange glow in the middle.
Bai Miao, who was the most seriously injured, lay to one side being cared for by Li Xi. The others were all injured to varying degrees, but none were as badly injured as him.
"We can depart a little later tomorrow. Given Bai Miao's serious injuries, let's switch to an RV!"
The original idea was for them to each drive their own car, but Bai Miao obviously didn't have that option.
"It takes about ten hours to get from Shixian County to City A. We'll probably arrive in City A in the evening or later. Should we travel through the night or take a short rest?"
It's already past 2 a.m. If we set the departure time at 9 or 10 a.m., we'll arrive in City A around 6 or 7 a.m.
While eating her kebabs, Ji Xiyun glanced at Bai Miao, whose face was pale, and then looked around at the others. "Then let's set off at noon, rest near City A tonight, and head to the Azure Dragon Base early in the morning."
Jiang Heyan nodded, giving them plenty of time to rest. Luo Xi also had some crystal cores given to them by the captain, which would be perfect for healing their injuries.
“Now that the three of you are all level seven, the main combat force of the team will be handed over to you. Xing Xiao and I will play a support role.”
The apprentice has mastered the skills, why should she work herself to the bone at the forefront? Wouldn't it be better for her to watch movies and enjoy a gourmet meal in the back?
No one had any objections; ever since they met the captain, they had lived better lives than anyone else.
They are not the kind of people who don't know how to be grateful and only know how to take. In this world, there is no way to survive if you hide.
"Of course. We were incompetent before, but now that we are capable, why would we hide behind the captain? What's the point of us even coming out?"
Originally, she wanted to wait for Jiang Heyan to grow stronger so that she could go and take revenge on GR on her own. Unexpectedly, she ended up becoming their captain.
Having companions around feels good, not just because you can eat a ready-made meal, but because it's lively with many people. Perhaps deep down, she still prefers the life with companions!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have left the round ball and balloon, nor would she have kept Xing Xiao until now, and even risked her life to eat the food Xing Xiao cooked.
The night was quiet and still. The small house with its high-hanging vine walls isolated everything, leaving only a room of tranquility and warmth.
boom!
boom!
Meanwhile, an internal conflict suddenly broke out at a remote marine research base, and towering artillery fire destroyed most of the high city walls.
A large number of Frankenstein's monsters led an army of zombies into the base, reaping the lives of the people inside as if they were in an empty field.
Blood soaked the wasteland, wails filled the entire research base, and under the stench of blood, countless monsters devoured the still-warm corpses.
His unclosed eyes were fixed with boundless fear and resentment. In just a moment, they turned gray and white, and his mutilated body twisted and writhed once more.
The blood that was still flowing in his body turned from bright red to dark red, and finally to completely black, joining the zombie army to attack the base where he used to live.
Hidden in the shadows, Song Qi's face was faintly visible in the flickering lights. "Tell the people at Base Two to intercept and kill those people!"
