These weird things are all mine

Whether it's a mental or physical attack...

These "meat animals" seem to be completely ignored.

"An Yu, be careful!"

I heard Xiaobai's slightly anxious voice, but their "hands" were already unavoidable.

A breeze blew by, and An Yu fell heavily to the ground.

Almost half of her body, including her right arm, was wiped out in an instant.

Chapter 53 Rescue

It hurts so much...

It seems that I can no longer feel the existence of my body...

About to die?

It seems to be true...

"Hold on, Anyu."

Xiaobai's calm but somewhat anxious voice seemed to constantly ring in her ears, but Anyu could hardly hear it clearly, as if it was a whisper in a dream.

This was her first battle... and she ended up in such a miserable defeat...

"Don't fall asleep."

I'm almost dying...

Xiaobai, don't save me, just give up, run for your life...

Everyone should be here soon. Don't let them all die here because of me...

"do not give up."

"Don't...give up!"

"do not die!"

The childish voice, whose tone remained unchanged from beginning to end, finally took on a hint of indignation that was hard to conceal.

An Yu slowly opened her eyes and saw the "White Witch" with long pale hair. Her eyes had lost their pupils, leaving only white pupils.

The eerie and strange pale long hair seemed to have self-awareness, floating slowly in the air, and the power that escaped seemed to be weaving something.

"Live."

Not words, but commands.

She was giving orders to a life.

"white..."

An Yu slowly stretched out her hand.

"Stay alive, Anyu."

The beautiful pale girl was looking at him, her colorless eyes seemed to carry a hint of holiness.

An Yu clearly saw that the half of her body that had been erased was growing back at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her life responded to this unquestionable command and she miraculously survived.

It was not until An Yu regained consciousness that she was shocked.

This is Xiaobai's ability? !

Is this something that a lower-level awakener of the "All Souls" path can do?

It's almost like coming back to life!

At the same time, An Yu could also feel that although she had recovered, her body was weaker than ever before, as if this recovery was achieved by draining away her vitality.

But even so, it can be called a miracle.

Seeing that An Yu was finally alive, Luo Ling breathed a sigh of relief after using all his strength to perform "Hyperplasia". Fortunately, he did not let her down.

This was her first time using "hyperplasia" to heal someone, and she didn't cause serious injuries that left half of her body intact.

Fortunately, "hyperplasia" is indeed strong enough. Luo Ling only needs to consume her physical strength, and it is her own vitality that repairs An Yu's body.

But...the crisis has not been resolved yet.

This was not a battle that An Yu, an awakener who was not even at the first level, should participate in, not to mention that her awakened abilities were currently of no use in the battle.

The power of "Meat Animals" lies not only in their immortality, but what is more terrifying is that they have the instinct to devour flesh and blood, and will devour everything once touched.

The situation where An Yu was only half swallowed was considered good, because the "Uncle Huang" that Luo Ling was fighting almost swallowed her whole.

However...the disadvantage is that Luo Ling seems to be immune to this kind of devouring. Their "caress" is completely useless to Luo Ling, and not even a hair falls off.

Luo Ling speculated that this was probably because she possessed Puppet Song.

But the problem is that Elsa and Anyu don't have this kind of treatment.

"Meat animals" are absolutely irresistible to them.

Elsa, who was approached by several "meat-beast" children, seemed very panicked. She waved little Bella to try to fight off the "meat-beasts", but in the end it was Luo Ling who took action and finally forced them back a little.

Luo Ling, who was immune to devouring, could hack and kill the "meat livestock" with impunity. The sacrificial dagger that Ji Ying lent her was indeed powerful enough. Luo Ling had never learned any fighting skills, but she could easily cut the "meat livestock" into pieces by just waving it randomly.

However, this could only delay the attacks of the "meat livestock". After each cut, the "meat livestock" would take a few breaths to recover.

Luo Ling recognized that their method of recovery was not much different from "hyperplasia", but the problem was that their vitality replenishment... did not seem to come from themselves.

...most likely came from the huge cavity beneath Baiyan Village.

In other words, at least for Luo Ling, the vitality they possess is endless and almost immortal.

"Take Anyu with you first."

Luo Ling whispered to Elsa who was a little panicked behind him.

Elsa was also unlucky. Her abilities were completely restrained by these "meat beasts". The other party had no soul consciousness at all, so there was no way to destroy their spirits.

"Um..."

Elsa bit her lip lightly. She knew that neither she nor Anyu could help.

She switched the wheelchair to electric mode, picked up An Yu who was on the verge of coma, and narrowly avoided the attack of the "meat animal".

The reason why I haven't used the electric mode just now is because the battery life of the wheelchair is quite limited, and I won't use it when it's not necessary.

Three small ones and one big one, even an awakened one with rich combat experience would find it difficult to deal with them, not to mention Luo Ling. She only relied on her immunity to devouring to be able to fight four alone...but she still couldn't stop them all.

"It's been almost an hour," Luo Ling, slightly out of breath, comforted the two, "help will be here soon."

"Um..."

Elsa fought back her tears of fear and persisted.

Luo Ling looks to be eleven or twelve years old, but Elsa is really that age. Those children who have transformed into "meat animals" may be older than her.

Even though Elsa had participated in battles with monsters before, they were just minor fights compared to the horrifying scene today.

Especially the scene where An Yu was half wiped out in front of her, with internal organs and flesh flying everywhere, almost made Elsa collapse emotionally.

"I can still hold on..."

Driven by fear and panic, Elsa followed closely behind Luo Ling who was fighting and retreating, constantly avoiding the sporadic attacks of the "meat beast".

Before they knew it, they were back near the store.

"One hour and three minutes."

"If the communication group still cares about us, it should be here in ten minutes... no, within five minutes."

Luo Ling's physical strength had almost reached its limit, and even the movement of swinging the dagger seemed obscure.

"At least... I should be able to buy myself another ten minutes."

This thought flashed through Luo Ling's mind, but she quickly rejected this speculation.

Because she saw a horrifying scene in the distance.

Dozens of "meat animals" with the villagers' broken faces slowly walked out of the village. Among them, Luo Ling even saw An Yu's grandparents.

The second guess is correct.

Almost all the "meat livestock" here have awakened, and the only thing waiting for them is to be devoured.

At this moment, Elsa's excited voice sounded behind her, mixed with tears that could not be concealed.

"We're here, Miss Bai, everyone is here!"

Luo Ling immediately turned his head and saw a ripple gradually appearing in the curtain that separated Baiyan Village, as if someone from the outside world was forcibly breaking through the blocked barrier.

One hour and four minutes.

Help has arrived.

Chapter 54: Despair

"Very good..."

Elsa finally burst into tears. Everything in Baiyan Village was so terrifying. It was also the first time she encountered such a horrific scene.

Luo Ling breathed a sigh of relief. The patient communication group was quite reliable and did not last much longer than she had estimated.

If it's a little later...she will be fine, but I'm not sure about Elsa and Anyu.

Either they will become "meat livestock" or they will be turned into nutrients; in any case, there will not be a good ending.

The number of corpses in the underground cave far exceeds the number of villagers in Baiyan Village...

In other words, almost all the people who came to Baiyan Village during this period were buried in underground caves.

If Luo Ling and the other two had not been able to uncover the truth, they would most likely have become one of them.

But then it all ended.

As a faint sound of shattering rang out in the void, the invisible curtain separating Baiyan Village was completely shattered. After the faint traces of collapse, a cold voice sounded,

"Oh, I finally found it."

The snake-shaped vertical pupils in the performer's eyes slowly dissipated and he narrowed his eyes.

An immature hatching barrier. It seems that the condition of this "egg" is much worse than I expected.

The dormant weirdness is called an "egg" in "The Pioneer of Evil Weirdness". Generally speaking, only "Dangerous Weirdness" and above can form an "egg".

The "egg" will instinctively form a hatching barrier that can help it accumulate strength, while also playing a certain protective role.

For lower-level awakeners and ordinary people, the hatching barrier will only block them and prevent them from leaving. However, for powerful ones like performers, the hatching barrier will protect the "eggs" in various ways.

Luo Ling's estimate of the time was quite conservative. The extra time was actually the performer's time spent breaking the hatching barrier.

"Now it seems that the 120th place is a bit overestimated. It should be around 130th to 140th place?" The performer put away his eyes from the fingertips. "Hehe, in the dormant state, it is at most equivalent to around 250th place. It can be considered a big bargain."

Coupled with the gift of "Him", I cannot imagine the possibility of failure of this operation.

It would have been a bit too cautious to notify scientists and artists in advance; they wouldn't have had to do anything.

"I wasted precious time because of an idiot... But as long as I get this "egg", I can make up for it."

Thinking of this, even the performer with a disordered personality couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth.

She took a step forward and successfully entered Baiyan Village, which was protected by the hatching barrier.

But when entering, the performer's scalp suddenly went tingling.

Dozens of strange eyes were instantly cast at her. Between the mountains, forests and fields, a white mycelium monster with a broken human face was slowly wriggling.

"What's going on? Isn't the 'egg' still dormant? How can it be so active?" The performer couldn't help but take a step back. "It's almost equivalent to about 350 weirdos, and the number is astonishing..."

But the next moment, the performer knew why.

She saw Luo Ling with a frozen expression, Elsa with an incredible look on her face, and An Yu who was half-conscious in her arms.

...Did these rookies awaken the "eggs"?

But how could they make the "eggs" active to this extent...
