Mysterious country

After chatting with Wu Di for a long time, until Wu Di felt tired and fell asleep again, Xia Qi took a bowl to the yard and scooped out a bowl of water from the water tank. After taking a sip, he only felt that This water has a very strong smell of blood.

So he didn't drink too much and just poured out the rest of the water in the bowl.

Looking up at the gloomy sky, Xia Qi felt uncomfortable all over. There was a hint of red in the clouds.

The air also seemed to become heavy, and the whole person seemed to be pressed down by a big invisible hand. Not only did he feel uncomfortable physically, he was also mentally affected.

"Something's weird today."

Just when Xia Qi was about to call Hong Guo out, Hong Guo had already walked out of the house. When she saw the extra patch of red on the horizon, she reminded Xia Qi:

"Brother Xia, there is a high probability that the invasion of the living dead will break out today. This place is too close to the area where the living dead are, so we'd better stay away as much as possible."

Hongguo had told him about the invasion of the living dead before, but he did not elaborate on the day when a large number of living dead would invade and how much the number would be.

"Is it because of that weird red color on it?"

"Yes, the most dangerous time here is when the sky turns completely red. At that time, not only will there be an unimaginable number of living dead, but there will also be many things more powerful than the living dead.

This kind of weather is also called the death time. The dark night will gradually turn into a red night, which will last for 2 days until the red color of the sky recedes again.

Unless some small groups of living dead invaded, most of the survivors died from this situation.

I've experienced it a few times, and if it wasn't a fluke, I wouldn't have survived. "

"Is there anything more powerful than the living dead?"

Xia Qi had not heard the man he killed mention it before. He had thought that the large number of living dead invasion that Hong Guo mentioned was just like when he and Wu Di just entered here by mistake. There were probably dozens or hundreds of them. The living dead can be considered a large-scale invasion, but according to Hong Guo's meaning, it is only a small-scale invasion and is nothing at all.

Although he can devour the living dead, this devouring is not unlimited. He can devour as much as he wants anytime and anywhere.

The strength of the living dead is not very good, but the remnant souls in their bodies are extremely difficult to deal with.

After only devouring a dozen living dead, the backlash he endured has almost reached its limit, and his spirit will become exhausted. He needs to rest for at least half an hour, or an hour, before he dares to devour them again.

Otherwise, even if his body can withstand it, his spirit will be shattered by the impact of the remaining will in his remnant soul.

Okamura Neiji once told him that the living dead were called God's clones, and the reason why they died and resurrected was that their bodies were taken over by the remnant soul of the Demon God wandering here.

Whether this statement is credible or not, Xia Qi cannot make a conclusion, but there is one thing that he can really feel through devouring those living dead.

That is, the remnant souls of these living dead are indeed from the same soul.

The hostility was very strong, and in the process of suffering the backlash, he could clearly feel that even his soul baby was very uncomfortable just for the sake of fusing the remaining soul.

You must know that his soul baby, as early as when he was a manager, already had the ghost king, no, to be precise, it had the ability to swallow the ghost king's soul.

And after such a long time, even his strength has reached the level of senior manager, so how come his soul baby has not improved at all.

He felt that he at least had the strength to be close to the director, or not weaker than the director.

For a soul of this level, devouring a few or a dozen residual souls should be as simple as eating and sleeping, and the backlash should be almost zero.

But unfortunately, those remnant souls that were only at the supervisor level at most made it difficult for his soul babies, so that he could only bear the violent backlash.

This alone is enough to show how terrifying this remnant soul is when it is complete.

Although there is no substantial evidence to prove that the owner of these remnant souls is the demon god mentioned by Minato Kaze Neji.

But he was already inclined to believe this in his heart. After all, according to Hong Guo, there were hundreds of thousands of living dead in this ghost town.

And the souls that exist in this ghost town are not complete. To put it simply, hundreds of thousands of remnant souls have been separated into hundreds of thousands of remnant souls.

However, every remaining soul was still filled with violent will that put him under great pressure.

It's not that he can't analyze the original strength of this remnant soul, but he simply doesn't dare to think about it.

Therefore, during the recent devouring process, his heart has changed from being decisive at the beginning to becoming a little hesitant.

Because of the existence of hundreds of thousands of remnant souls, there are only two reasons why they have not merged with each other.

One was the person who fought with it at that time, and directly scattered its soul. Although the soul was immortal, it was shattered.

As for the second reason, he was sure that these remnant souls had no consciousness at all, so it was natural that they would become stronger after merging with each other and would only keep drilling into the body of the dead.

It is for these two reasons that these remnant souls did not gather again.

But right now, he is devouring the living dead bit by bit, which is equivalent to gathering these broken souls.

You must know that although he can withstand the backlash, these remnant souls are actually shattered, but they are still immortal. They can also control the corpses with their consciousness. Once they are gathered together through his devouring, it is hard to say what will happen.

But contradictory things always come with the right choice. Now he is worried that these remnant souls will be gathered, so he begins to hesitate in his heart whether to give up.

But on the other hand, he is now trapped in this ghost town. If he doesn't become stronger, who else can help him escape from here?

It was obvious that no one would come to save him.

So this is very contradictory. It is equivalent to an ordinary person who does not know anything about dismantling bombs and faces how to choose to cut off the ignition wire. If he does not take risks, he will definitely be killed when the time comes.

But if you take the risk, you may be killed before the time is up, or the danger of the explosion may be resolved.

One choice is certain death, while the other choice is a narrow escape.

Xia Qi also decided after careful consideration that he should continue his previous idea and could not give up devouring these living dead.

On the one hand, there is hope of getting stronger and escaping, and on the other hand, these remnant souls have no consciousness, so maybe after he gathers them and is absorbed by the soul baby, his own soul and will will become stronger. maybe.

By then, he will not only be able to escape this ghost town, but he will also be more confident even when facing the backlash of the dark man in his body.
