Warriors wearing different styles of clothes just mixed together and walked along the passage into an ice crystal hall.
It was obvious that many of them were not originally warriors from the same team, but were deliberately mixed together. Some of these warriors were in their fifties or sixties, and some might only be twenty-seven or eighty-years-old.
Some were wearing the leather robes of the grassland people, some were wearing robes common in the Xuanwu Empire, and some were the warrior uniforms of the Fengtian Dynasty military.
Behind these teams was Wan Liang and others, who sent these "captured" warriors here like prisoners.
"Hey, City Lord Wan is really good at it. He actually brought out such a large team in such a short period of time. If he has evil thoughts towards me, it's really hard for me to resist.
Ability."
Wearing a dark green robe with ghost patterns all over it, the ghost stared at Wan Liangdao, who had just entered the ice crystal hall.
Wan Liang not only did not get angry at all, but instead bowed his fists respectfully and replied, "Fortunately, the first batch of people to be collected have been brought back.
I didn’t want to delay the elder’s plan, so I tried my best to bring back as many people as possible.”
While he was telling the story, he had already made a gesture, asking his men who had just entered the ice crystal hall to drive them towards the cracked ice wall.
It was also at this time that Guiying noticed a detail more clearly, that is, nearly one-third of the warriors driven away by Wan Liang and others this time had not been implanted with soul-eating insects.
And this also explains why the number of people Wan Liang brought back far exceeded the number of soul-eating insects that were implanted in them.
Everyone present had some doubts in their hearts, but they were not fools, so even if they didn't have the ability to sense soul-eating insects like Ghost Nightmare, after thinking about it for a while, they roughly understood the reason.
Wan Liang and the others were very smart. Since they had chosen to obey the orders, they might as well do better. After encountering the group of prairie warriors, the team they met later simply used soul-eating insects to eliminate the entire team.
The leader was brought under control.
In addition, other people in the team did not dare to disobey the leader's orders, and on the other hand, they were not strong enough to fight against Wan Liang and the others, so they could only choose to obey obediently.
After figuring out the general situation, Guiyu did not hesitate and directly began to implant another batch of soul-eating insects into a large number of people, including Wan Liang.
And the Soul-eating Insect, which had become agitated and caused Wan Liang and others to feel pain, used secret techniques to calm it down.
Immediately, among the warriors brought back, those who did not have the ability to use soul-eating insects and were relatively weak were directly separated from the team.
As for the warriors who were implanted with soul-eating insects by Wan Liang and the others, Ghost Nightmare not only appeased the soul-eating insects in their minds, but also implanted new ones in them. The intention of doing this was already obvious, to use them to cooperate.
Wan Liang, continue to capture more warriors.
Just when Wan Liang and others were re-implanted with soul-eating insects and were about to set off again, everyone in the Ming family also returned at this time.
In comparison, their gains were less, and some Ming family warriors still had two soul-eating insects parasitic in their bodies.
The fierce light in Guiyan's eyes flashed at this. If Wan Liang and the others hadn't compared him, he wouldn't have felt there was anything wrong. But now Wan Liang not only acted smoothly, but also brought back so many warriors very flexibly.
This made him obviously more dissatisfied with the Ming family.
"It seems that these young brothers from the Ming family have some objections to my order. It doesn't matter. I like guys with true temperament best. If you have any dissatisfaction, don't be polite. It's not a problem to take action against me."
Ghost Nightmare spoke with a bright smile, but the words he spoke made people who heard them instinctively feel a sense of fear in their hearts.
Mingguang hurriedly stood up and explained: "I'm afraid the elders have some misunderstandings. We have also searched carefully, but the time is short and the scope is large, so we can't find too many teams, so..."
"Have I ever said that I want to hear your explanation?" Gui Ni's expression turned cold in an instant. His eyes just glanced at Ming Guang casually, and he could no longer say anything else.
When he looked at the three Ming family warriors again, a smile appeared on Guiying's face again, and he stretched out his hand to grab them without any hesitation. Three dark shadows the size of peas flew out directly.
Originally, they were looking forward to taking out the soul-eating worm from their brains every moment. However, when it was taken out at this time, not only was there no joy in their hearts, but there was a sense of pain and pain.
despair.
"Sir Elder..." Mingguang spoke hoarsely with a trembling voice, but he just shouted the honorific title of Ghost Nightmare, and could no longer say the rest.
Because he could see from the other party's eyes that if he continued to plead, it would not only be the three family warriors who would suffer, but probably more people would be implicated.
He glanced at the other party coldly, and then the ghost smiled again, and said lightly: "Actually, you don't need to care too much about these little things, but you should think carefully about how to complete what I have given you.
task.
Well, look at your old friend Wan Liang, he is much stronger than you. He has brought back so many people, and he will bring back more people in the future. What do you think of such a person?
How can I not keep my promise?"
His words were scolding Mingguang and deliberately used them to hit Wan Liang. This made Wan Liang, who originally felt that he had performed well and had a greater hope of survival, directly feel a slight tingling in his heart.
He was twitching and almost cursed on the spot.
The ghost's meaning seems to be saying, 'I am very satisfied with your performance just now, and this is the standard for completing the task seriously. You must maintain it well. If the performance next time is not as good as this one, then ghost
You can just think that you are deliberately trying to fool yourself.
If Wan Liang wants to fool Gui Ni, it doesn't matter. These three people from the Ming family are not only a warning to the people of the Ming family, but also a warning to you, Wan Liang.'
This feeling is indeed uncomfortable. You have obviously performed very well, but when you turn around and realize that the better you perform, you dig a bigger hole for yourself. It is strange not to feel pain and depression.
In addition, the mentality of Wan Liang and others as well as everyone in the Ming family has become very strange. They are obviously looking forward to taking out the soul-eating insect most, but now they are looking forward to it in their hearts, not to be the one who has the soul-eating insect taken away.
Soul worm people.
Those who had the soul-eating worm taken away were brought directly to the cracked ice wall. Now, except for the three Ming family warriors who were directly knocked unconscious, the others were still full of confusion.
The next moment, someone was controlled in front of the ice wall. He stretched out his fist and pounded the ice wall continuously.
In an instant, a vibrating sound came from the crack, and at the same time, countless gray-black energy rolled out and directly enveloped the warrior in front of the ice wall.
Because these warriors were deliberately concentrated in front of the crack, they didn't know what would happen next. Caught off guard, people were so confused that they were directly wrapped in the weird energy.
Although it was not the first time for Wan Liang, Ming Guang and others to see such a scene before them, they once again witnessed those people wrapped in gray-black energy. Their bodies seemed to be corroding rapidly, and they were dying from the inside out.
Everyone's heartbeats were still racing, and they subconsciously took a few steps back, instinctively wanting to stay away from the ice wall.
As for the warriors who were later implanted with soul-eating bugs and had no choice but to follow them, their eyes widened in horror, and some even had their legs trembling and were about to fall to the ground at any moment.
As for the Ghost Mandrill Pavilion, the Puppet Spirit Sect, or Blizzard and others, they are relatively indifferent. Some of them are really indifferent, and some of them have adapted to the rules here and are not interested in directly using people to sacrifice.
, there won’t be too strong a reaction anymore.
As for Zuo Feng, although he had already had a premonition and Huan Kong had specially reminded him, seeing those warriors being pushed up for sacrifice still deeply touched his heart.
Those deaths were just the beginning. Not long after, as the warriors were wrapped in gray-black energy, more and more energy in their bodies was directly extracted and integrated into those energies, and the cracks on the ice wall also followed.
Expanded a lot.
The Ghost Mandrill Pavilion and the Puppet Spirit Sect naturally observed the changes in front of the ice wall without any inner burden, and even with a hint of appreciation.
When he observed that although the cracks on the ice wall were expanding, they were not as big as expected, the smile on his face gradually disappeared.
Instead, his face gradually darkened. He just looked at it like this, then suddenly turned to look at Blizzard and said, "This speed is too slow. Shouldn't you help share the load?"
Hearing what the other party said, Blizzard had a gloomy face and said coldly: "Are you going to ask me to follow suit? Or are you going to implant soul-eating insects into us?"
In response to this rhetorical question, the expression on Gui Niang's face did not change much. He just slowly turned to Wan Liang, Ming Guang and others, and said with a smile: "Your team really lacks some combat power. We can arrange it."
Some helpers will always make things more efficient."
Seeing that Blizzard was deep in thought, Ghostly Nightmare immediately added: "If you are worried, I can teach you a method to inspire soul-eating insects to eat your brain.
I think you don't want to delay the time for too long. After all, the number of teams gathered will only increase. And there may be a strong enemy coming at some time. Then it won't be you and I who can decide.
The treasure belongs to you."
These last words finally convinced Blizzard. After pondering for a while, he slowly nodded and agreed to Ghost Nightmare's proposal.
In fact, Zuo Feng could see Blizzard's helplessness, but in fact there were not many choices anymore. Even if it was not for treasure hunting, even if he wanted to leave here, he must open the ice wall in front of him.
What everyone is facing is the wall of sacrifice. Only by sacrificing a certain number of people can the way forward be opened.
