The Wind-Controlling Swordsmanship from Under One Person

Chapter 169 Captivity
"If I'm not mistaken, you are hypnotists, right?"

Bai Yuekui also walked up at this time, looking at the man in front of him with cold eyes.

She was well aware of the evil deeds of these people. At the beginning of the disaster, they had killed countless people and their actions were completely inhumane.

She has witnessed no less than ten tragedies.

Chongyan seemed to have not expected that the young woman in front of him actually knew the old-world term "hypnosis master" and was stunned for a moment.

However, he quickly recovered his composure, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said:
"We do have this name in the Old World, but now that a disaster has struck, we're merely huddling together for warmth in this precarious apocalypse. We humans should unite, put aside our past grudges, and jointly fight against the Mana Ecosystem."

"That sounds nice." Bai Yuekui looked indifferent. He didn't believe a word he said. His right hand slowly grasped the hilt of the knife.

At this moment, Qin Ye pressed down her hand holding the knife.

Bai Yuekui turned his head and stared at Qin Ye suspiciously. His eyes were very unfamiliar, as if to say that he had not found you to be a kind-hearted person in the past few days of getting along with you.

Qin Ye's eyes fell on Zhong Yan, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said:
"Is that so? Brother Zhongyan is quite righteous. It just so happens that we're planning to go to the vortex passage to search for the Mana core. Why don't you bring your men with you and we go together to destroy that damn Mana ecosystem?"

"The vortex passage?" Zhong Yan's expression changed. That place was extremely dangerous and filled with various ecological products. He didn't want to go there.

The reason why they hid in this snowy mountain was because the erosion of the mana ecosystem here was relatively slow, and the extreme beasts did not like to visit this place.

Fighting against the Mana Ecosystem? That's something only a fool would do.

In this apocalypse, being able to survive is a blessing.

The reason why he wanted to get close to the other party was just to find out where the other party's camp was and how many people were still alive.

Otherwise, he would have devoured the life essence of the men and taken the women back to the livestock pen.

"Why, you don't want to go?" Qin Ye's eyes were cold and deep, falling on Zhong Yan, revealing a dangerous aura.

After a moment of thought, Chongyan said, "With just a few of us, it's going to be difficult to fight against the Mana ecosystem. How about this? I know a way to increase life essence and make people evolve. I can go back to the camp with you and pass this method on to all of you. There's strength in numbers."

"So you mean you refuse?" Qin Ye interrupted without waiting for the other party to finish.

Zhongyan frowned and nodded silently. He felt that the man opposite him was a little strange.

"Then what nonsense are you talking about?" Qin Ye smiled coldly, "I will never tolerate such cowardly behavior."

Before he finished speaking, Qin Ye instantly appeared in front of Zhong Yan, and the long sword in his hand drew a graceful arc and slashed straight towards his neck.

Chongyan didn't expect that the other party would be so friendly with him one moment and suddenly attack him the next.

Since sweet talk doesn't work, we can only use the tough tactics against the other party.

He snorted coldly, turned his body slightly to avoid the slash, and at the same time, he stretched out a palm as fast as lightning, with a thick scarlet energy wrapped on it.

Zhongyan's speed was very fast, not at all inferior to Qin Ye's in normal state.

From this we can see that he must have absorbed the life essence of many people, at least a city.

Qin Ye did not dodge or evade the opponent's attack, and did not even look at it. A thick vortex of blood energy turned into a barrier to intercept the opponent's attack trajectory. At the same time, the long sword in his hand suddenly stabbed towards the opponent's chest.

Zhongyan's attack hit the vortex of blood and energy, splashing a large amount of blood and energy.

He was shocked. He didn't expect that the human opposite him had such magical abilities. He immediately prepared to retreat, but found that the blood-colored vortex that blocked his attack suddenly turned into a big mouth with sharp teeth and bit his arm fiercely.

Intense pain hit him instantly, and before Zhong Yan could pull his arm away, a long knife pierced into his chest with a "puff" sound.

After just one encounter, Chongyan was already on the verge of defeat.

Although their basic stats were comparable, Chongyan was completely crushed in terms of combat skills and methods.

However, immediately afterwards, a strange scene occurred.

Chongyan, who was pierced by the long sword, suddenly had a double image on his body, which became larger and larger, as if there was a body superimposed on him that was separating.

Seeing this, Qin Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, swung his sword, and half of Zhong Yan's body was torn apart, and a large amount of dark brown blood gushed out.

But this has not prevented the tautology of division.

The next second, its body split into two. The one with human appearance retreated to the distance, staring at Qin Ye with cold eyes, while the monster with gray-black skin, strange appearance, and covered with flesh granulations stayed where it was.

The human Chongyan had no injuries on his body. Apparently, the monster Chongyan had borne all the heavy blows just now.

Qin Ye was a little curious about this, but he had no time to look or think about it. The monster Zhong Yan had already attacked him, with flesh granulations growing wildly all over his body, and suction cups on them, which were wrapped around him like octopus tentacles.

Thousands of blades shook, blade light spread out, and all the attacking tentacles were cut off at the root.

Qin Ye then landed a foot on the monster's chest, sending it flying and sending it crashing to the ground. Before the monster could even get up, a large number of shimmering blades fell from the sky, smashing it into a bloody mess, splattering blood everywhere!
Seeing this, the humanoid Chongyan turned around and ran away.

Qin Ye gripped the hilt of the knife and the broken blade quickly returned to its original shape, then expanded and slashed out again.

However, the extended thousand blades passed through Zhong Yan but passed through his body without the feeling of cutting into anything solid.

Taking this opportunity, Chongyan disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant.

Qin Ye and Bai Yuekui looked at each other and had the same idea in their minds: to cut the grass at its roots.

Then the group adjusted their formation and followed the trail to catch up.

We walked all the way to the top of the mountain, which is a flat-topped mountain. There are many living facilities on the mountain, such as meat drying racks, bonfires, etc.

At this time, two hypnotists were gathered around a big pot, cooking food, with wisps of smoke rising from the pot.

When they saw Qin Ye and others, the two were also stunned.

Before they could react, a gust of wind from a knife swept past, and the two men's bodies were instantly separated.

In a casual glance, Qin Ye saw the boiling food in the pot. Even though he had killed countless enemies, he couldn't help but frown.

"Fuck, these damn guys!"

Bai Yuekui and others also followed. Shanda originally wanted to see what the other party was cooking, maybe he could have a sip of hot drink, but when he saw it, his stomach churned and he almost vomited out what he had eaten yesterday.

Such a cruel, inhumane and unethical scene made everyone change color.

Bai Yuekui's eyes were cold, and he felt that those hypnotists had died too easily.

Although Qin Ye was not feeling well, he had a doubt in his mind.

It is impossible for anyone to survive on this snowy mountain without survival supplies.

Only scavengers would go down to the ground to collect supplies on the lighthouse, and there was no news of anyone being captured by the hypnotist.

The same must be true for Longgu Village. Bai Yuekui would not hide such a thing.

So where does the hypnotist get these foods?
"Ho! Ho!" Mark growled and pointed at a cave on the top of the mountain.

The group looked at each other and moved over there.

Qin Ye took the lead and entered the dark cave first.

As soon as he entered, his eyes had not yet adjusted to the sudden change in brightness, when he felt a blurry black shadow beside him, accompanied by a gust of strong wind, rushing towards him.

A huge blood-red vortex suddenly spun around him, instantly swallowing up everything around him.

It immediately transformed into a blood beast and slammed into the area where the black shadow was.

A flash of fire appeared, illuminating the surroundings.

Not far from Qin Ye's feet, several hypnotists lay motionless on the ground with their bodies torn as if they had been hit by a hydraulic press, with blood still lingering on them.

The cave was very deep, and the group continued to go deeper by turning left and right.

During this period, he killed several scattered hypnotists. These evolvers were invincible to ordinary people, but unfortunately, they were facing Qin Ye, who possessed absolute combat power far beyond any individual in this world.

"Listen, it sounds like someone is crying." Xu Tong tilted his ear to listen.

"It seems so." Xia Dou also echoed.

Qin Ye also heard the sound of a baby crying not far away.

"Be careful, it might be a trap."

In this doomsday environment, the sound of a baby crying in the hypnotist's residence seems a bit abnormal no matter how you think about it.

The group carefully turned a corner and the scene before them suddenly became clear.

At the end of the cave, a group of people in ragged clothes, some with no clothes at all, huddled together, leaning on each other, with numbness and despair on their faces.

These people were all women, many of them had bulging bellies, and the crying sound came from a woman's arms.

Seeing this scene, combined with the previous situation, Qin Ye instantly understood what was going on.

Those hypnotists are actually keeping these people in captivity!
