"Yes! Captain, countless bugs like this suddenly appeared just now, but luckily, Fat Scorpion and I teamed up to kill them indiscriminately!"
Karl hugged Fat Scorpion and raised his head proudly.
Captain Liebert glanced at Karl lightly, turned to Fat Scorpion and asked: "Fat Scorpion, how did you kill so many void creatures?
Didn't your power disappear when you attacked them?"
"Disappear? No, they will die as soon as they are touched, but Karl's attack is indeed not very useful against them."
Fat Scorpion shook his head blankly and said honestly.
"is that so..."
Upon hearing this, Captain Liebert narrowed his eyes slightly and began to think.
After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and said: "I know, Gumandin, your and my previous guesses were not particularly correct!
Void creatures will eliminate other people's energy, but they also have an upper limit! The energy of the Fat Scorpion is the force of nature, which is a higher energy that surpasses the energy we use!
So he can easily kill the void creature, but we can only slowly grind it to death!"
"Well... that should be it! Fat Scorpion, you may encounter void creatures on the way, and you will be the main attacker then!"
Gu Manding smiled slightly and said to Fat Scorpion.
"As long as I can save the boss, that's fine!"
Fat Scorpion scratched his head and said firmly.
"Okay, let's keep going. Li Xiubai doesn't have much time!"
Along the way, these people did not encounter void creatures again.
Just like those before, they are all the void creatures in this red land.
Finally, on the last day, several people arrived at their destination!
It's still blood red here, but it's not the land, but a sea of blood red flowers!
"This is! Flowers from the other side... blooming from the other side... only flowers... no leaves..."
Karl looked at the sea of flowers with horrified eyes and murmured.
Several people were confused and turned to look at him: "Karl, do you know these flowers?"
"Um!"
Karl looked solemn and nodded slightly: "In the legend of Long Xia, the flower of the other side blooms for a thousand years and falls for a thousand years. The flowers and leaves are in contact with each other, and they will never see each other again in the world!"
After a living being dies, it has to walk through this beautiful sea of flowers towards the kingdom of death!
This road...is also known as Huangquan Road!!!"
"Yellow Springs Road?!"
Although they have not read many history books like Karl, they feel chills running through their bodies and a kind of fear coming from their souls just by hearing this name!
"Is Houtu Temple on this road leading to death?"
Captain Liebert asked slowly while carrying Li Xiubai on his back.
"Yes, Captain...!"
As soon as Carl finished speaking, Captain Liebert resolutely walked into the road to hell.
Fat Scorpion followed closely behind with Xiaopi on his back. When Carl saw this, he no longer hesitated and stepped inside.
Only Gu Manding stood outside Huangquan Road with a look of hesitation on his face.
Although he is very optimistic about Li Xiubai, he also likes him very much.
But for him, to step into this land filled with deathly silence, Long Xia's legendary road to the underworld...
"Shameless snake, just wait for us outside! You still have the child Gu Lin to take care of, so there is no need to follow us on this journey."
Captain Liebert didn't force it. They entered Huangquan Road because Li Xiubai was a family member.
Gu Manding and Li Xiubai don't have such a deep relationship.
"...."
After a while, Gumandin sighed: "Sorry..."
"Nothing to be sorry for!"
Captain Liebert smiled, and the moment his smile fell, he suddenly took action and knocked out Fei Xi and Karl!
"you..."
Gumandin was stunned and vaguely guessed what this old friend was going to do.
"Sneak Snake, if I don't come back, I will ask you to take care of Carl, Fat Scorpion, and the children on the boat!"
Captain Liebert threw Carl and Fat Scorpion out of the Huangquan Road and whispered.
"No...no! You can definitely come back!"
Gumandin caught the two of them and said with a sad expression.
If it were twenty years ago, he would definitely accompany this old friend into Huangquan Road.
But now, his tough and cold heart has already melted after his wife passed away and he had a son, Gu Lin.
Captain Liebert didn't reply, carried Li Xiubai and Xiaopi on his back, waved and walked into Huangquan Road.
The other shore flower sprayed out scarlet mist, gradually swallowing his back.
...
The road to Huangquan seems endless.
Captain Liebert carried the two of them on his back and shuttled through the sea of blood-red flowers, unable to see the end for a long time.
He became more and more anxious. This was the last day. If he couldn't go to the Houtu Temple today and obtain the earth element treasure...
So he quickened his pace, and his figure was like a strong wind, causing the flowers on the other side of the road to sway.
suddenly!
In the scarlet mist, there is a faint will coming!
"I'm going to hell! The strangers retreat!"
The sound was vast and empty, reverberating on the road to Huangquan.
Captain Lebert stopped, looked around, and shouted anxiously: "I want to save these two children, and please tell me how to enter the Houtu Temple!"
"I'm going to hell! The strangers retreat!!!"
That will still only repeated these words.
But when he finished speaking, two scarlet marks shot into Li Xiubai and Xiaopi's bodies.
Between their eyebrows, two vertical lines appeared, which seemed to be some kind of mark of entry into hell.
Captain Liebert looked at the scarlet vertical stripes and suddenly understood.
Xiaopi and Li Xiubai are already dying people and are not considered alive, so they have the qualifications to enter the underworld!
And although he was seriously injured and not far from death, he was still an extraterrestrial powerhouse with a life force so powerful that he could not be considered a human being.
But...it's impossible for him to commit suicide, right?
If he died, who would take Li Xiubai and Xiaopi to the Houtu Temple?
The look in Captain Liebert's eyes changed, and he thought of a way.
So, he put the two of them on the ground first, and then sat down cross-legged, and the life energy around them shook wildly!
Gradually...
The wrinkles on Captain Lebert's face became deeper, his beard and hair turned gray, and his whole body exuded an aura of decay!
He dissipated his energy!
Although this will speed up his death, it will also make him lose his identity as a living person!
"Now...I...can I move forward..."
Captain Liebert stood up tremblingly and asked the will.
"allow!"
Scarlet light shot out, and a mark appeared between Captain Lebert's eyebrows.
A smile appeared on his old face, and he carried Li Xiubai and Xiaopi on his back again.
He doesn't have much time. He must find the treasure of Houtu before the remaining power in his body dissipates!
Otherwise, he won't even be able to carry two people!
And the injury left by the void creature was also rapidly devouring his life force!
"Give me some more time...give me some more time..."
Captain Liebert murmured, hunched over and walked forward step by step.
