"Brother Yu, are you sure you want to save these evil creatures?" Seeing the mutants gathering more and more, Bai Yiqing turned around and asked.
Yu Fei thought: "If the mutant virus is really contagious, then if these mutants are allowed to enter residential areas, the problem will be serious. Wouldn't it be equivalent to a biochemical crisis that threatens all mankind?"
Thinking of this, Yu Fei showed a trace of murderous intent in his eyes and said coldly: "Since we can't save them, let them be freed as soon as possible."
Saying that, Yu Fei immediately summoned the Dragon Soul Sword Qi and was ready to start a killing spree at any time.
Dozens of hunched-backed mutants jumped around them, making bursts of "ouch" calls. From time to time, one or two mutants pounced towards them, but before they could get close, they were already attacked. Bai Yiqing's spirit tail or Yu Fei's dragon soul sword energy knocked them to the ground.
However, these mutants are difficult to kill. Except for one of the mutants whose head was cut off by the Dragon Soul Sword Qi and died on the spot, the other mutants who were knocked to the ground quickly got up again. .Moreover, the injuries on their bodies seem to heal quickly, and they will be able to move around again in a short while.
Seeing this situation, Yu Fei couldn't help but think of the records in the file. At that time, it was impossible to kill the mutant with a gun. Instead, it caused serious damage. Later, he adopted the advice of a Taoist priest and used the same method to deal with zombies...fire. Troops were dispatched with flamethrowers to calm the incident.
Fire. Thinking of this, Yu Fei's heart suddenly became excited. There was no other way. It was easier to use fire. He immediately summoned the red flame beast from the Nine Heavens Xuanxu Realm.
The Red Flame Divine Beast is a divine beast of fire. The flames it spits out are a hundred times more powerful than any flamethrower.
The huge red flame beast looked up to the sky and let out a roar. Even in such an empty desert, it was deafening. The mutants were frightened by its majestic aura and retreated one after another.
In fact, these mutants have not completely lost their minds. Deep in their hearts, they still have some residual instinctive consciousness, such as fear.
The red flame beast opened its huge mouth and sprayed out a stream of cyan flames towards the mutants. This cyan flame seemed to be alive. It actually shuttled among the mutant crowd. In an instant, most of the mutants were burned. Waves of ghostly cries and howls were heard. Mutants with blazing flames all over their bodies were running around. The whole scene was horrific. Yu Fei couldn't bear to look at it anymore and quickly closed his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, there were charred corpses everywhere. There was an unpleasant burnt smell. The red flame beast stood majestically on a broken wall. Another deafening roar came from the sky.
However, at this moment, Yu Fei felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart. After all, these people were once living lives. He actually killed so many "people" at once, even if he did not do it himself. It is inevitable that there will be a sense of guilt.
Bai Yiqing saw Yu Fei's thoughts and advised from the side: "Brothers Yu don't have to feel guilty. For them, instead of living in this world like this, where humans are not humans, ghosts are not ghosts, death may be a real kind of death." relief."
At this moment, the charred corpses on the ground suddenly underwent strange changes. They disappeared out of thin air under the eyes of Yu Fei and Bai Yiqing. They all gradually turned into a wisp of black mist. When the wind blew, they immediately dissipated. Without a trace.
In the blink of an eye, all the dozens of corpses on the ground disappeared. Not even a trace was left. It was as if nothing had ever happened here.
Yu Fei was shocked: "This... what is going on."
Bai Yiqing also looked confused. He was stunned for a long time and then said slowly: "Could it be that those just now are just illusions."
When Yu Fei heard the word "illusion", he immediately thought of something again and said: "I remembered it. It is recorded in the files that the Pisces Tai Chi array in the underground palace of this ancient city ruins can copy people. Maybe. Just now These mutants are actually just mirror images."
Yu Fei suddenly felt better. If he killed only the mirror image person, then strictly speaking, it would not be considered killing.
"What is a copy...and what is a mirror image?" Bai Yiqing still doesn't know much about these two relatively modern concepts.
Yu Fei gave a rough explanation to Bai Yiqing.
After hearing this, Bai Yiqing couldn't help but frown: "No wonder just now I thought that many of those mutants looked very similar. It turns out they are all the same person."
"I'm just guessing. If that's true, then this magic circle is too scary. We have to find it quickly," Yu Fei said.
Bai Yiqing also realized the seriousness of the problem. If there is such a powerful magic circle, it is not a good thing. If it is used by ghosts, not to mention anything else, it will just use it to copy hundreds of thousands of violent characters. If the fire dragon comes, it will cause chaos in the world.
The two of them quickly continued to search for the entrance to the underground palace. The red flame beast also helped sniff around.
Finally, after opening a collapsed earth wall, a large hole with a diameter of more than one meter appeared in front of Yu Fei and Bai Yiqing. Looking inward along the large hole, there was a staircase made of earth bricks that led directly to the ground.
"Let's go down and take a look." Yu Fei said.
Since the red flame divine beast was too huge to squeeze into the cave, Yu Fei let it return to the Nine Heavens Xuanxu Realm. He and Bai Yiqing carefully walked down the stairs.
The stairs were very long, and it was very dark inside. Yu Fei didn't bring a flashlight, so he could only rely on his spiritual sense to explore the front.
As he was walking, Yu Fei suddenly kicked something under his feet. The thing rolled down the stairs and hit the adobe bricks. It made a crisp metal impact sound. It felt like an iron kettle.
After walking down more than a dozen stairs, Yu Fei found the thing. He picked it up and used his spiritual sense to examine it. It was really a kettle. And it looked like it was the kind of military kettle produced in the 1970s and 1980s.
Yu Fei couldn't help but feel startled. Wasn't it the 1970s and 1980s when Peng Jiamu's expedition team discovered the Pisces jade pendant and eventually disappeared? Maybe this kettle was left behind by them. This at least shows that they have been here before.
Yu Fei couldn't help feeling nervous. He clenched the Dragon Soul Sword in his hand.
The two of them soon reached the end of the stairs. Then they walked not far along a two-meter-wide secret passage. An underground palace with an area of more than 100 square meters appeared in front of them.
Bai Yiqing spread out all nine spirit tails. One of the spirit tails flicked out and shot out a ball of spirit balls emitting white light. This ball of spirit balls was like a bright moon. It slowly moved in the center of the underground palace. It rose and illuminated the entire underground palace.
