Chapter 257 The situation

"what is that?!"

  A large number of civilians exclaimed.

  But the night watchman seemed to understand something, and many people showed excited smiles.

  The youngster with the middle-aged man hurriedly opened the mouth and said:

  "Vice-section Head! It's reinforcements! It's reinforcements!"

  A look of surprise appeared on the middle-aged man's face: "It came so quickly."

  Not long after they sent out the distress signal, reinforcements arrived, which was much faster than he thought.

  But middle-aged man is naturally happy.

  He smiled: "Counterattack! Clean up all the shadows! ... Also, don't let those civilians mess up."

  "Yes!"

  Saying that, the middle-aged man turned into an afterimage, flew into the sky, and began to kill the shadows that had not been purified by the sun.

  As he got closer to the sun in the sky, the middle-aged man noticed that the temperature was getting higher and higher, even the War King level he felt tingling skin and dry mouth.

  The middle-aged man waved out the storm and shattered the fleeing shadows. He glanced at the sun in the sky with a look of shock in his eyes.

  very powerful! Which great character is this?

  Not only the middle-aged man, but several other War King-level powerhouses in other areas are also continuing to kill the shadows in the air at this moment, feeling the scorching high temperature, and they are shocked.

  With the emergence of the sun, the black clouds were rapidly dissipating, and together with the cleaning up of a group of night watchmen, it didn't take long for the black fog in the entire area to dissipate and the shadows to disappear.

  The sun in the sky slowly lost its rays of light, revealing a silhouette, and next to the silhouette, another silhouette appeared.

  It is Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe.

  Li Qinghe had already dispelled the black cloud that Lu Yuan had not considered. She glanced at the miserable state below, frowned slightly, opened the mouth and said:

  "Fortunately we came in time."

  Lu Yuan is also nod, his face is solemn.

  If the aliens who control the Soul Devouring Bead use the ability of the strange Devouring Soul without restriction, the harm caused is too great.

  Lu Yuan's gaze swept below, and the Evolution Cube in his body did not vibrate.

  This makes Lu Yuan brows tightly knit, and I don't know whether it is because the Evolution Cube is a little far below, and I can't feel it, or because the alienated person who controls Soul Devouring Bead is not in this area .

  Just as Lu Yuan was thinking, several silhouettes flew towards them.

  The head is a woman with long white hair, mature beautiful and alluring.

  She glanced at Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe, and after seeing Lu Yuan, she paused, a look of gratitude appeared on her face, and she sincerely thanked:

  "It turned out to be Elder Lu and Elder Li. Thanks to the two elders who arrived in time, otherwise we may not be able to resist these shadows. I am Bai Linglong, the head of the Night Watch Branch of Xikou City, and I thank the two elders here."

  Li Qinghe has seen this kind of scene too much, she chuckled and called the head:

  "Minister Bai is polite, this is what we should do... By the way, when did this alienation phenomenon start?"

  "More than two hours ago, a black fog suddenly appeared. At first, the black fog was not thick, and only a few ordinary persons died. However, after the night watchman intervened in the investigation, the members of the night watchman squad also died, and then the black fog gradually changed. It became more intense and gradually formed what it is now."

  Bai Linglong didn't hide anything, and directly opened the mouth and said.

  Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe looked thoughtful nod.

  It can be seen that the alienation phenomenon in the cities that Gu An mentioned before almost broke out at the same time.

  The two looked at each other, Lu Yuan opened the mouth and said: "Where did the alienation phenomenon first begin?"

  "I'll take the two over there! You guys will handle the follow-up."

  Bai Linglong opened the mouth and said to Lu Yuan, and then turned to face several other War Kings instructed.

  The other War Kings were all nominees and thanked Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe, then turned and left.

  And Bai Linglong took Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe to the front of a very ordinary-looking residential building with a white exterior wall in that huge residential area.

  "According to the whistleblower, the first black fog came from here. Later, the night watchman came to investigate this small building and found a large number of black shadows."

  Li Qinghe sensed it, slightly frowned, and found nothing, she turned her head and looked towards Lu Yuan: "Fate younger brother, how do you feel?"

  Lu Yuan's perception ability is already extremely strong. He felt nothing out of the ordinary when he got down to the small building, and the Evolution Cube did not shake.

  Lu Yuan frowned slightly, then opened the mouth and said: "Go in and have a look."

  "en."

  The three entered the small building, and Lu Yuan found that there was some dark and unusual aura inside, these all are left by the black soul controlled by Soul Devouring Bead before.

  Apart from this, there are still a lot of corpses in the corridors and corridors.

  These corpses were pale and had no wounds on their bodies, but they had lost their vitality.

  Their souls were devoured.

  Lu glance Yuand at the corpse on the ground and retracted his gaze. When he was in Xili City, Lu Yuan had already seen the corpse of Soul Devouring Bead Devouring Soul.

  This residential building has a total of Twelfth Layer, and Lu Yuan and the three from the first floor to the twelfth floor checked all of them.

  Bai Linglong looked at the two of them expectantly: "How is it? The two Elders, have you gained anything?"

  Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe looked at each other and slightly shook the head.

  A hint of disappointment flashed in Bai Linglong's eyes, opened the mouth and said: "I'm afraid that the alienated person hiding in the dark will continue to attack at any time."

  Lu thought Yuan for a while, opened the mouth and said: "We will stay here for the time being."

  Li Qinghe is also nodding: "Check it out in the vicinity during this time, maybe there will be gains."

  Bai Linglong was slightly relaxed when she heard that Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe would be guarding here next, she nods: "I see, I will trouble the two Elders next."

  ......

  Xikou City, South District.

  In a dark basement, a beautiful and alluring black-haired woman exhaled slightly, and there were strands of gloomy black mist flowing in her dark eyes.

  There was a hint of fear in her eyes:

  "Your Excellency is right, that Lu Yuan is really strong! He killed all my soul servants so easily. If he is found..."

  Thinking of this, her face changed slightly.

  However, when she thought of the task that the adult gave her, she could only clench the teeth, and her eyes became firm:

  "Again at night! Drag them all here!"

  At the same time, in other cities where the alienation phenomenon of Soul Devouring Bead appeared, there were a large number of War King and Battle Sovereign-level powerhouse support, which finally extinguished the alienation phenomenon.

  However, some cities were severely damaged, with more than 10,000 deaths, while others were slightly better.

  The ordinary commoners in these cities are in a constant state of panic, trying their best to leave the city where they are, so as not to be affected the next time alienation appears.

  Of course, all those who can leave are businessmen and elites with certain assets, and the price of the aircraft is not something that ordinary persons can afford.

  Even so, seats on the aircraft are still hard to come by, and not everyone can get on the aircraft.

  As for the real ordinary person, they can only continue to live with fear. The residents of the area that have been alienated and destroyed before can only live in other areas temporarily under the guidance of the consul.

  For a time, there was a lot of chaos in several cities. Even if the sheriffs did their best to suppress them, the frequency of crimes was still increasing rapidly.

  And genetic warriors, people like the night watchman, don't have time to manage the chaotic civilians, they can only do their best to investigate the location of the Soul Devouring Bead's controller, in order to deal with the source as quickly as possible.

  Only then will these cities slowly recover.

  The large-scale alienation phenomenon in several cities has even been heard in other cities in the Red Maple Empire. For a time, many people were worried and afraid.

  But an ordinary person without power can't do anything no matter how worried he is.

  ......

  Imperial Capital, the headquarters of the Night's Watch.

  Gu An sat in the president's office with a gloomy face, listening to Secretary Liu's report, his face was extremely ugly.

  "Then what is the Soul Devouring Bead? Who made it? What is his purpose? These 11 cities now involve a lot of energy and powerhouse within us, so sooner or later there will be trouble."

  Secretary Liu's face was also a little worried, opened the mouth and said:

  "Now I can only hope they find the owner of Soul Devouring Bead soon."

  "hmph! Even the Lords of the Battle Emperor have begun to ask about this matter. I hope that it will not be a big deal. Otherwise, the person behind the Soul Devouring Bead will not think about it. By the way... How about the underground containment room? Yes Nothing out of the ordinary?"

  After receiving the anonymous text message, Gu An put the security of the underground containment room in an increasingly important position. Now that the outside world is turbulent, there must be no mistakes in the underground containment room. Otherwise, I am afraid that the situation will become very bad.

  Hearing Gu An's words, Secretary Liu opened the mouth and said: "The underground containment room is still as usual, with the two Battle Sovereign-level elders, Elder Yun and Meg Elder, and other War King-level elders guarding them together, even if the Battle Emperor wants When you come in, you will also be discovered, and when the time comes, Lord Battle Emperor will definitely take action."

  Hearing this, Gu An felt slightly relaxed and nods: "That's good, there is absolutely no room for loss in the basement containment room."

  ......

  West Exit City.

  Bai Linglong took Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe out of the residential building. In the air, Bai Linglong opened the mouth and said:

  "There are no other clues about the alienation phenomenon now. Next, our night watchman will do our best to investigate the location of the Soul Devouring Bead. Why don't the two elders meet the branch with me first and go to the reception room to rest?"

  Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe looked at each other, Li Qinghe opened the mouth and said with a smile:

  "No need, let's investigate together. Eleven cities are troubled by Soul Devouring Bead. If we can deal with it as soon as possible, we can also help other cities."

  Hearing this, Bai Linglong smiled, opened the mouth and said:

  "That's the best thing, then it's going to bother two more Elders."

  "Should be."

  Li Qinghe laughed.

  She turned her head and looked towards Lu Yuan: "Fate younger brother, let's go to different places to look for it, maybe there is something else to gain."

  Lu Yuan naturally had no opinion, he nodded, said with a smile: "That's good."

  Afterwards, Lu Yuan and Li Qinghe flew towards the two directions of Xikou City respectively.

  During the flight, Lu Yuan's shadow swayed slightly, one after another shadow quickly left and moved in the shadow.

  Shadowland.

  Lu Yuan intends to search a large number of shadows together. Although the Evolution Cube can only be sensed and used by himself, there is no way to feel it in the Dark Shadow Clone, but even if the Evolution Cube cannot be used, if there are more Dark Shadow clones, it will be easier to find unusual places. The faster it is, the more efficient it will be.

  Lu Yuan's strength is now much stronger than when he just broke through to the War King level. He has released hundreds of Shadow Clone, centering on Lu Yuan himself, to conduct a carpet search within a radius of 50 kilometers. .

  During the search, Lu Yuan found that the night watchman and other children of the genetic warrior family who should be in the city were also searching together.

  For the night watchman branch, it is their own work, and for the children of the Great Family, if the Soul Devouring Bead continues to grow, perhaps the entire West Exit City will be abandoned, when the time comes they will lose the most important foundation, which is When it comes to family inheritance, do not dare to slack off.

  At the door of a room in a residential area, two brawny men holding fire axes with grins on their faces, kept kicking the door of the room with force.

  One of the brawny men shouted: "Ma De, open the door for Laozi!! The brothers just want to get some money, don't make Laozi angry, be careful that Laozi will kill you!"

  A terrified voice came from the door of the room: "Aren't you afraid of the sheriff coming over like this?"

  "Sheriff?" A brawny man smiled: "My cousin is the Captain of the nearby security square, do you think they will come? And now they are busy, hurry up to open the door, or even if I hack you to death, you Also dead in vain!"

  In the room, a gentle man with glasses was holding the little boy with a hint of fear on his face, and the little boy was shiver coldly, and an elegant woman beside him also looked worried.

  "Husband, what should I do?"

  There was a quiver in the woman's voice: "They might hit the door."

  The gentle man looked pale, his eyes flashed, thinking about what to do.

  Just then, a terrified scream came from outside the door.

  "Ah! What the hell are you?? Go away!"

  "ahhhh!!"

  The screams made the three members of the family tremble, and the little boy burst into tears. He bit his lip and didn't dare to cry.

  The gentle man and woman's faces were as white as paper.

  Seeing that there was no movement outside, the two looked at each other with horror in their eyes.

  Then the gentle man took a deep breath, opened the mouth and said: "You guys are waiting here, I'll take a look."

  He came to the door, looked towards the outside through the cat's eyes, and found that there was no one outside.

  The gentle man was stunned for a moment, then swallowed, opened the mouth and said: "Are you still outside?"

  There was no response from the outside, the gentle man glanced at the woman, took a deep breath, inserted the safety bolt, and quietly opened a crack in the door.

  Through the crack of the door, the gentle man saw two brawny men lying on the ground, their hands were clutching their necks, their faces were purple, and they seemed to have strangled themselves to death.

  Seeing this scene, the gentle man's heartbeat missed a beat, a cold air emerged from the bottom of his heart, and goosebumps arose.
