Bizarre Survival: I Can Devour Thousands of Talents

Chapter 182, Section 181: The Lost Soul of the [Result]? Dual Realms Open Simultaneously!

A person who has lost their heart.

Especially the heartless person who evolved from the "Blessing" stage to the "Baptism" stage, namely "Freud".

That's the only character who has actually unlocked Lingxiao's "Famous Blade".

Although it wasn't due to its own strength, the reasons were absurd, like "the older one came out after the younger one was beaten."

But the fact is that he almost died.

No matter if the opponent attacks with a knife or summons a dump truck, Ling Xiao will never underestimate any threatening target!

The senses locked onto the numerous figures approaching!

If Alan Town reacts with panic to the "false man's" attack, he will leave the town without hesitation.

The gentleman does not stand under the wall.

He wanted to go alone to find out the truth.

If any of the mindless attackers are similar to "Freud," Ling Xiao will preemptively intercept and kill them!

He dared not gamble on what would happen when a heartless person met a soulless person.

This place is already deep in the valley, and the location where the mindless person last appeared is still some distance from the mountains.

If even after running into the mountains, there are still people with bad intentions lurking around, then Ling Xiao should consider intercepting and killing them before fleeing south overnight!

He also had doubts in his mind:

Where did these heartless people come from?

Although he had previously suspected that the appearance of the mindless people was related to the mountains, he had no concrete evidence to prove it.

The followers of both the Lord of the Swamp and the God of Snow and Frost all "emerged" from the ground.

Ling Xiao was very confident in his spatial perception.

Even if something is lurking and slowly moving under the snow, he can sense the faint movement.

But unfortunately, during the last attack on the camp, my early warning failed!

The conclusion reached at the time was that the original state of the mindless people was that they were "sleeping" under the ice and snow, and they were only awakened when the living presence of survivors appeared around them!

But during the southward migration after that, the caravan equipped with sleds did not find any other mentally unstable people.

Therefore, Ling Xiao's speculation in a short period of time is quite simple:

"The heartless are from the mountains!"

【Light of Green Mountains】is stationed at the point just inside the mountain entrance.

The bends in the mountains can greatly reduce the cold air currents coming from the north.

In fact.

As soon as Lingxiao entered the mountain, he could feel the "gradual" temperature.

The reason why the convoy did not go any deeper into the mountains was because the situation inside was unknown!

Qi Heng and his group were stuck at the pass leading into the mountains. If the lost souls were to awaken from the snow and rush towards Yalan Town in the southern valley, they would surely run into them!

The guild only noticed that monster activity was more frequent; otherwise, there was nothing unusual.

That means Ling Xiao's prediction is very likely to be spot on!

The heartless are truly hidden in these vast mountains!

The fact that the "pseudo-humans" category was summarized by the lost souls also shows that there was definitely a lot of fighting between the two sides!

So here's the question...

How many heartless people are hidden in this boundless mountain range?

How many more towns are filled with lost souls?

……

Sartre and Angelina hurried to the entrance of the town, and Ling Xiao followed them to see what was going on.

Bad news: There are quite a few "fake people" coming;

Good news: The scent on him is familiar, and there's no one like Freud!

"It's a white-haired imposter!"

"Prepare the black rocket!"

At Gehrman's command, several rows of archers simultaneously drew specially made arrows from their quivers.

Then, with practiced ease, he scooped out a small dollop of thick ointment from the dark jar hanging from his waist, applied it simply to the arrowhead, and then nocked it onto the bowstring!

"preparation!"

"put!"

Hundreds of arrows flew diagonally into the air, arcing through the air before falling with increasing speed!

The archers of Aran Town are seasoned veterans, and their teamwork is quite efficient and convenient.

Although the arrow-releasing actions were not synchronized, the arrows that rose into the air and fell back down simultaneously created a dense rain of arrows!

It was right in front of the distant pass!

That's the only way the white-haired, heartless man can attack!

Although the latter felt threatened, its body covered in white hair that grew rapidly, turning it into an extremely thick "fur ball".

But the arrow rain not only inflicts penetrating damage, the ointment attached to it also bursts into flames after piercing the monster's skin!

Clusters of tiny flames burst open!

The white-haired monsters, riddled with arrows, could no longer maintain their rolling motion and emerged from their furry ball form, running towards the town with the flames burning ever brighter!

His movements were contorted, and his limbs were swinging wildly!

But its speed is surprisingly not slow!

Then several more waves of arrows rained down on that side.

The defending knights, now in formation, were ready to advance and defend against the enemy.

Ling Xiao's all-seeing eye never stopped.

It's a rare opportunity to see other people's organized battles, and their experience and special items are of great reference value.

The bottles and jars at the archers' waists are probably secret ointments for different types of monsters, and the contents of the wine jugs that the guardian knights are passing around are likely also unusual.

In detail, these people who have lost their souls do not have any problems.

[Light of Green Hills] This is how it's been done for so many days!

A person who has lost their heart is filled with either vines or ice; they can be seen as having lost themselves and their very humanity.

What about the person who has lost their soul?

Both of them believed in gods.

However, based on existing observations and analysis, people with lost souls are no different from humans. When they are injured, they bleed, and the cut-off skull sections are composed of blood vessels and bones.

They experience birth, aging, sickness, and death, as well as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.

What exactly did that lost soul lose?

soul?

But it really doesn't look like it...

While Ling Xiao was still racking his brains trying to figure it out, the battle in the wilderness was nearing its end.

Wearing dark red armor, Clark swung his hands, and his greatsword cleaved through the chest of the last white-haired monster. Before the shattered ice inside could even erupt, it collided with the ointment smeared on the sword, creating a dazzling display of sparks.

Clark breathed a slight sigh of relief, only to hear a startled cry from behind: "Watch out!"

There's no need to remind them.

The sudden sense of danger made him lunge forward!

At the same time, a crisp sound exploded in mid-air not far away!

Clark rolled forward to his feet and looked warily toward the source of the sound.

There.

A broken ice flower is blooming.

Countless tiny wood chips were scattered all around!

The exclamation came from Gehrman, but the ice spear that intercepted it halfway came from Ling Xiao.

At the high pass at the edge of the wilderness, a dark green figure grinned.

Then he beckoned with his finger toward the town.

Before anyone could react, Ling Xiao shouted, "I'll be right back!"

Before the sound even faded, he had already darted out!

Clark instinctively tensed his muscles, only to realize belatedly that the ghostly, swift figure had already swept past him and rushed into the distance!

"Eh! Mr. Owl!?"

The screams faded into the distance.

Ling Xiao chased after the dark green figure, disappearing into the distance of the valley one after the other.

The person who caused him to lose his composure like this must be a special individual among those who have lost their minds!

The reason why Ling Xiao chased after him so "recklessly" was so that he could pick him up and leave Yalan Town!

The problem isn't in Aran Town, but at the camp!

The attacks by the mentally unstable are not limited to this area.

Qi Heng and his group did not possess such a divine skill as spatial perception. It was not until the outer perimeter alert was triggered that they discovered the Heartless Ones sneaking close to the camp!

Judging from the timing, Alan Town and [Light of Green Hills] were attacked around the same time!

Ling Xiao took a moment to glance at the message that had been sent.

The heartless men who attacked the camp were also followers of the Lord of the Swamp.

Why would this obviously more bizarre follower of the Swamp Lord appear in Aran Town alongside the white-haired Yeti?

This is also why he is so eager to find a breakthrough!

It fled, he chased!

There was plenty of vegetation in the valley, and this heartless person even had the energy to manipulate the surrounding environment at will, thus hindering Ling Xiao, who was relentlessly pursuing him!

But this still doesn't change the fact that the latter is rapidly approaching.

Only after escaping the sight of everyone in Yalan Town was Ling Xiao able to unleash his true speed!

If Clark were to see this scene, he would probably really doubt what he had actually cultivated in his knightly abilities over the years.

Bang!

A giant tree that was flying horizontally was smashed to pieces by Lingxiao!

The pursuit took just the right amount of time, enough for him to gather his support!

With the help of the wind, Ling Xiao's figure became faster and faster!

A fleeting glimpse!

【Tessa the Lost One (Follower of the Swamp Lord)】

[Status: Mature; 19% bearing fruit...]

[Talents: Swamp Affinity, Wild Growth, Call of Nature]

The latest novel is first published here!

[Abilities: Accelerated Growth, Mud Binding, Poisonous Mist, Corrosive Touch, ? ? ...]

The intelligence gathered brought Ling Xiao a slight sense of relief.

Then, he decisively conjured an ice spear and casually threw it forward!

call out--

The heartless woman named Tessa knew she couldn't dodge, yet she didn't turn her head. Behind her, dense vines shot out from both sides!

The intertwined vines formed a giant net that caught the sharp ice spears!

Then came the crashing sound of the ice spear shattering, sending sharp shards of ice crystals flying and tearing the net to shreds.

But Tessa stopped running.

It suddenly stopped, turned around, and stretched out fingers made of slender vines, pointing forward.

A layer of dark green halo spread out, and the flying ice fragments turned into ice chips and disappeared before they even got close.

Ling Xiao did not take the opportunity to get close; he braked the car the moment the former stopped.

He realized that the thing was leading him toward the mouth of the valley.

There, Qi Heng and his companions were engaged in a fierce battle with the followers of the Swamp Lord.

I really want to go back and help.

But if the enemy's goal is to lure him there, then he'll have to reconsider whether he should go back.

That glance vanished too quickly; Ling Xiao didn't see it clearly.

Now that the two sides had stopped "calmly," that strange face came into Ling Xiao's view.

The follower of the "Lord of the Swamp" named Tessa is very different from the previous ones.

Ling Xiao has a very good memory.

Although those who have lost their minds are also believers of the Lord of the Swamp, their suffix is ​​"maturity".

Tessa's intelligence indicates that it is already "mature".

We have now entered the "results" stage.

This reminded Ling Xiao of the special nature of "Freud".

Both being followers of the [God of Snowfield and Frost], the ordinary white-haired monster only has [Blessing Level], while "Freud" has already reached Baptism.

This is also why it can cause Ling Xiao a lot of trouble.

The completely alienated, mindless person in the present moment has clearly reached a similar stage...

The body is made up of countless intertwined vines, which are both blood vessels and muscles, both hard and flexible.

The surface is covered with a layer of slippery moss, which seems to act as skin, but it is not completely covered, and the tangled vines inside are directly exposed to the air.

The dark green humanoid figure had long, slender limbs, with a cold, hard, brownish-black color at the joints, which inexplicably reminded Ling Xiao of the joints of a puppet.

As Tessa moved, the vines, flesh, moss, and wooden joints collided with each other, producing an unpleasant grating sound.

"Hehehe..."

Tessa opened her mouth, but her lips were empty; she had no teeth and not even a tongue.

His facial features were so blurry that they were indistinguishable.

Only two bright, dark green wooden "glass balls" made a creepy "clucking" sound as they blinked and rolled.

"What's wrong? You're not going to chase after him anymore?"

Ling Xiao didn't speak.

The man in dark green, seemingly oblivious, tilted his head and asked haltingly, "So, it was you who killed Freud?"

"You're still conscious? You know him?"

"Hey, hehe!"

Tessa smiled dreamily.

It tiptoed and tilted its head to look over, its posture like that of a curious young girl.

"You killed me, the one who amused you..."

"Then...it's your turn to keep me company!"

humming-

Ling Xiao pushed off with his feet and retreated rapidly!

It turned out that countless vines were shooting out from the tree canopies on both sides!

Seeing that Ling Xiao had successfully dodged, the vines still tried to relentlessly pursue him!

However, the moment it turned, it was shattered by several blazing blades!

Ling Xiao sensed and detected a fast-moving monster. He didn't even need to confirm it with his eyes; he just attacked based on his instincts!

Tessa, who had suddenly attacked from the rain of broken vines, raised her arms to block in front of her, but was still cleaved back by the powerful slash.

It flew backward and crashed into the hard tree trunk, the acceleration seemingly losing its effect.

A flash of dark green light, and half the tree "melted"!

The tree trunk split into several protruding sections, which "grew" out from Tessa's back as grotesque pieces of wood!

This mindless creature operates in lush vegetation and its methods are extremely bizarre!

Ling Xiao saw all of this.

His eyes flashed with fire and coldness!

[Blazing Domain]

【Ice Soul Domain】

The first move he made was a combination attack technique that he had painstakingly developed!

Although the two fields are incompatible and difficult to integrate, they are not impossible to release simultaneously!

Just keep the areas they affect separate!

For most people, this would be an absolutely fantastical dream!

Because ordinary people can't even get a glimpse of a domain, let alone possess two domains at the same time, or even have to multitask and use them simultaneously!

But Ling Xiao is an existence even more outrageous than a monster!

Let alone dual domains.

When he practices in private, he can unleash the power of all three domains simultaneously for a few minutes!

Logically, the best match for the [Ice Soul Domain] should be the [Azure Wave Domain], but in the current situation, the fire-attribute [Blazing Flame Domain] is undoubtedly the only effective counter!

The surrounding vegetation was instantly set ablaze!

Along with this came a surge of powerful energy that filled the surrounding space as the domain expanded!

The Iron Heart Blade drew out a string of delicate and dazzling sparks, with endless flames blooming around Lingxiao as the center!

The vines that swarmed in like venomous snakes were blasted to smithereens the moment they entered the area!

This is not over yet!

Lingxiao's simultaneous activation of two domains is not just for clearing out the area!
