Only a small number of the warriors from the Su Wang family who were responsible for the investigation felt a flash of uneasiness in their hearts when they came to the old area in the north of the city, and then these people chose to retreat quietly.
This kind of decentralized investigation task is not commanded in the form of a team. Instead, everyone carries out the same order after receiving the same order. Everyone who investigates in this way has absolute autonomy and can choose anytime, anywhere.
You can retreat, or you can choose to risk yourself and explore deeper to the limit.
Therefore, among the warriors who are also on the same mission of stealth espionage, some people are promoted very quickly and can become commander-level figures in just a dozen years, while some others have been doing it for more than ten years without making any major mistakes or achievements.
Although the former has more opportunities for promotion, it also takes greater risks, and a high mortality rate is unavoidable. The latter has no risks, and most of them can live a long time, and of course they will not get the upper class.
people’s attention.
At this moment, there was a group of people outside the old city. They had a premonition of danger, so they quietly withdrew without going deeper into the old city and went back to the Su family's residence to report the news.
Of course, there were still a large number of people who quietly began to lurk towards the interior, while the periphery of the old district in the north of the city was also calm at this time. These people went all the way in and found nothing.
It's just that they didn't notice that not far behind their group, there were four more people approaching quietly. Although the four of them were not very good at hiding, they were better because of their higher cultivation.
The leader's strength is even at the peak of the Qi-receiving stage, which is a step higher than Su Qiang and almost the same level as Su Ming.
The person who took the lead was none other than Elder Wu, and he was followed by three strong men in the middle stage of Naqi. Although Elder Wu was not good at concealing himself, he had studied spiritual energy first.
He could vaguely determine the positions of several Su Wang family warriors in front of him, so by following behind and exploring forward, the four of them did not encounter any danger.
Moving forward at a leisurely pace, these people finally gradually passed through the outskirts of the old city, and then began to move towards the interior of the old city. To be precise, this is where the formation group of the Lin family's surname is located.
However, due to the attack by Wang Su's family and the subsequent pursuit by the ghost painter, there are very few formations left in the old city. Moreover, the center of the main control formation has been destroyed, and the protection formation in the core area has been destroyed by Netherworld.
Devoured by a clan's formations, even if the formation group is still there, it will no longer pose a threat to any intruders.
After these Wang Su warriors arrived here, their speed began to slow down. It wasn't that they didn't want to increase their speed, but that they couldn't speed up in the thick fog.
On the outside of the old district in the north of the city are ring-fortress-style defensive buildings. These buildings are very regular, making it easy to identify the direction. However, after entering the inner area, the buildings will decrease, and there are even small woods and lakes in many places.
, this also caused some trouble for the warrior to identify the direction.
Fortunately, everyone's goal has always been clear. As we move forward, we always maintain the general direction, which is to move towards the core of the old district in the north of the city.
During the journey, the people in charge of the investigation from the Suwang family were surprised to find something. There was not a single living person in the old district in the north of the city. Although it should be very few, there shouldn't be no living person at all.
.
When they retreated from here before, in addition to the Su Wang family and the warriors from the City Lord's Mansion, there were also the strong men of the Shu surname who escaped. In addition, there should also be remnants of the ghost painters, the Mu surname family and the three major gangs.
it's here.
Because tonight's battle is too fierce, and the rhythm is fast and fast, people from the three parties are competing against every second. Some people are injured and unable to move, so they can only stay here temporarily.
But along the way, they didn't find a single living person, not even a complete corpse. When they saw such a scene, everyone already felt something bad, but they still continued to explore.
move on.
These people could feel that the final goal of their exploration might not be far away, because if they continued to move forward, they would enter the core of the old city.
Just as these warriors from the Su Wang Family continued to explore and move forward, approaching the core area, suddenly there were faint rays of light flickering inside the core area. Because the light penetrated the fog, it was white in everyone's eyes.
of light.
While this piece of light was flashing, there were also waves of fluctuations coming from inside. After some people felt it slightly, they were shocked, and at the same time they shouted "It's a teleportation array" in a hurry, and then they moved backward with all their strength.
Fly back and fly away.
There was a deep sense of fear in their anxious voices, and the voice was instantly transmitted, quickly traveling in this open area, and fell on the ears of almost every Wang family warrior present.
At this time, everyone will naturally no longer hesitate. With the teleportation array in operation, everyone knows without guessing that those Netherworld beasts must have come from here. The danger is right in front of us, not to mention that all the news has been
Even if there is no gain, people will choose to leave quickly.
The warriors of the Suwang family quickly flew away one by one and galloped towards the rear. Almost everyone used their speed to the extreme.
At the same time, at the core of the radiating light, gray and slightly bloated figures emerged from it one by one. It was no different from before, it was a ghost beast with blood-red eyes.
After emerging from it, the Netherworld beasts immediately noticed the presence of human warriors around them. Without any orders or hesitation, the Netherworld beasts that walked out of the formation rushed out before they could gather together.
The ghost beasts' sense of smell and perception far exceed those of humans. After they broke out of the formation, they immediately chased after them. The subsequent ghost beasts continued to walk out of the formation, chasing after them one by one.
The warriors and the Netherworld beasts fled and chased each other, and began to leave the core area at a terrifying speed. The warriors of the Suwang family were nervous and frightened. They did not expect such a coincidence. As soon as they arrived here, they would encounter the teleportation appearance.
The ghost beast.
Not only were the human warriors caught off guard and fled in fear, but each of the Netherworld beasts that had just appeared were also caught off guard, and what they felt in their hearts was not fear, but fear.
Because the formation is in operation just now, the fellows on the other side are constantly entering it. If there is a problem with the teleportation array here during this process, or it is directly destroyed. The Nether Beast on the other side continues to move without knowing it.
If you continue to enter it, the result will be distortion of the formation, and the distorted power of space after collapse will send them into the space turbulence of unknown distance.
Therefore, these ghost beasts were equally afraid, and then they vented all their anger on these human warriors who were close to the formation. As a result, the pursuit became more intense, and the first dozen or so ghost beasts that rushed out from the formation
, completely letting go of speed and chasing around.
At the same time that the warriors of the Suwang family issued the warning, Elder Wu and his three subordinates who were not far behind them also heard it clearly. Moreover, the three of them were shocked and started to retreat first.
In particular, the cultivation of the four of them was much higher than that of the warriors of the Suwang family, so they fled with all their strength and soon succeeded in leaving behind the humans and Netherworld beasts.
In just a few breaths, the Nether Beasts had caught up with the two human warriors. Although the Nether Beasts that came first were only at the fourth level, their ability to control the air was stronger and faster than those of the Qi Sensing Stage warriors.
Faster.
In the pure white mist, the billowing black mist rolled in from behind and directly enveloped the fleeing Su family warrior who was at the peak of his sense of energy.
The Su family warrior, who was wrapped in black mist, suddenly moved slowly and had difficulty in moving his spiritual energy. However, the Netherworld beast waved its sharp claws and struck hard at the warrior's body.
Although the Su family warrior was trapped in the black mist, he still struggled to fight back between life and death. The sound of metal collisions was heard continuously in the black mist, and it seemed that the Su family warrior was not at a disadvantage.
Until another Netherworld beast broke in, there were angry shouts and roars from humans. The sound was loud at first, then gradually became quieter, until it finally disappeared completely.
This was the first human being encountered after the group of Nether Beasts in front of them teleported in. After the two Nether Beasts killed him, not a single bit was left. Apart from broken clothes and weapons, the flesh, flesh and bones on his body were all gone.
All were devoured.
The killing had already begun, and the battle here had just ended. Not far away, there was another clashing sound, and the warriors' angry shouts and roars were heard one after another, and finally turned into horrified howls.
Warriors were killed one after another, and the cruel aura of the Netherworld Beast spread out unbridled, and it quickly started to chase them from behind.
Of all the humans present, the one who has the clearest perception of the Netherworld Beast's situation is Elder Wu. He can feel that in the thick fog, the harder he and others fly, the more clearly the Netherworld Beast will be able to judge his own situation.
Location.
Especially when the four of them gather together, the aura they release is stronger and easier to be captured by the Netherworld Beast. If you don't want the four of you to spread out and escape, narrowing the target and spreading it out, then you can only choose to hide.
As soon as he thought of this, the elder named Wu immediately whispered: "Speed up and see if there are any damaged houses in the distance. Enter them and lurk. Don't show your face without my order. Remember, do your best to restrain your anger."
Breath, don’t bring trouble to everyone.”
After Elder Wu finished speaking, he pointed to three nearby houses, and then rushed towards a half-collapsed house alone. This place had entered the outskirts of the old city, and the three men immediately spread out and took cover without any hesitation.
Not long after they dispersed and lurked, a small group of more than a dozen Netherworld beasts roared past here. Although they lost the ability to follow, they still continued to chase in the original direction without giving up.
