Useless

Just go and you will know. "

"Professor Yue said he was just going to investigate the situation, nothing will happen, and you don't have to worry too much. If Professor Yue has been away for a long time and hasn't come back, I will go to him."

"No, I heard that you are injured, so you should stay at home and recuperate. Jin Ye has always been cautious. He said that if nothing happens, it will be fine. Besides, he is also proficient in channeling and illusion...you should have seen it in Jingshui Lake Bar?"

Xia Yi turned serious when he heard the words, and signaled to Ye Hai with BPI's unique sign language code: "Is it convenient to report the situation?"

Seeing this, Ye Hai also cleared his expression: "Jin Ye doesn't set up monitoring, you can just say it."

"I... think something is wrong with Professor Yue."

"How to say?"

"I don't know if Professor Yue mentioned it to you before. He has acquaintances in the club who can meet him. I secretly observed Professor Yue's friend. That person has magic patterns on his face and a devilish energy, but he sent us here. There is no trace of magic in the technique of shrinking the ground at all, it seems... like some unknown high-tech. Although Professor Yue does not have magic patterns and magic energy on him, in the illusion barrier set up outside his residence in Jingshui Lake, There are faint traces of the magic of the demon clan." Xia Yi thought for a while, and continued, "I have seen Langde's situation from afar, and I always feel inexplicably familiar, and Professor Yue...seems to know the inside story."

"Impossible," Ye Hai flatly denied, "I have also been to Jingshui Lake, and I didn't find any traces of the demon you mentioned."

"I didn't notice it at first, but Hanguang has a strange symptom." Xia Yi insisted, "And it is no different than Wuyi mentioned that he also had similar symptoms in Haishi, and at that time we were with Professor Yue who was suffering from demonic energy. Friends are in the same place."

Ye Hai was silent for a while before saying: "I will consider what you said, now you just need to recover from your injuries."

"I will, you and Wen Ren take care too." After Xia Yi finished speaking, he turned off the communication system, and calmly looked at the shadow outside the corridor, "No difference, come out."

Chapter 25

"Master Pojun, the preparations for going to the lower realm are ready, when will we leave?"

Xie Yi's eyes unconsciously glanced at the corner of the room, and he replied casually, "It's just... these two days."

Li Zhu curiously followed Xie Yi's eyes and looked towards the corner, but saw nothing.She didn't dare to ask more questions, so she backed out full of doubts. She didn't expect to run into Huayue within two steps, and Li Zhu bowed her head respectfully: "Lord Lianzhen."

"It's Li Zhu," Hua Yue asked with a smile, "You just came out from Xie Yi's place?"

"Yes, this subordinate will report the progress of the work related to the base in the lower realm to Mr. Po Jun."

"I'm going to the lower realm in a few days, are you afraid?"

"Since we are working hard for the future of our people, there is nothing to be afraid of...but..." Li Zhu hesitated to speak.

"Say it, it's fine."

"I just saw that Lord Pojun... seems to have something on his mind." Seeing that Huayue was silent, Li Zhu quickly added, "I'm just a low-ranking priest, and I'm humble. Maybe, maybe you can enlighten Lord Pojun."

"Okay, I see. Thank you, Li Zhu." Hua Yue bid farewell to Li Zhu, and walked into Xie Yi's office in a few steps.

Xie Yi was staring at the corner in a daze at this time, Hua Yue's appearance greatly shocked him: "Why are you here?!"

"What's the matter? Master Po Jun was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the high priest, so he doesn't like me, a little honest priest?" Hua Yue said narrowly, "So I'm not qualified to come in, I'm really sorry, my subordinate will leave now. "

"No, no," Xie Yi hurriedly got up and grabbed Hua Yue who was about to leave, "I was in a daze just now and didn't notice you coming."

"In a daze?" Hua Yue looked around Xie Yi's messy office, "Is there anything here worthy of your intoxicated daze?"

"Nothing." Xie Yi responded cleanly.

"Really?" Huayue glanced suspiciously into the corner several times, but still found nothing, "The high priest asked you to go to the observatory now."

"Now?" Xie Yi scratched his messy hair like a bird's nest, "I have been working overtime for three consecutive days and three nights, can I do it another day?" Clear eyes.

Huayue crossed her arms and sneered: "Now you have learned how to be cute with me? It's too late! I told you to be stubborn, and you are so stiff with the high priest, don't you dare to sell it in front of the deity?"

"That's a matter of principle." Xie Yi muttered, "Alright, I'll go right away."

"It's best to take care of yourself before you go, lest you have to pay a grooming fine in the last few days here." Huayue walked out of the office after finishing speaking, and paused for a moment at the door, "If you confirm the time to leave, tell me One sound, I'll see you off."

The light crimson morning glow passes through the transparent shell of the spaceship, and is reflected on the insubstantial light path, creating warm circles.The building of the entire spaceship is bathed in the fresh morning light, looking warm and peaceful.However, in the corner of Xie Yi's office where the sun cannot shine, a lean figure stood quietly in the shadows, as if it was just a lifeless shadow.The handsome face of No. [-] is hidden in the darkness, like a carefully crafted mask.But under the icy surface, tiny cracks are quietly growing.

Xie Yi tried hard to swallow the last nutrient at the bottom of the observatory, and finally felt that most of his sanity had returned to its original position, so he stepped up the stairs leading to the observatory.He raised his head and saw a familiar figure in the distance, and an unconscious smile emerged from the bottom of his heart.This warm smile was accentuated by the rays of the sun, so dazzling that people couldn't move their eyes away.

Standing at the end of the high stairs, Shen Ye watched Xie Yi step by step to get closer, his eyes filled with long-lost tenderness and comfort, and an imperceptible trace of nostalgia.

Yue Jinye stood at the end of the winding mountain road, staring at the dark clouds that were gradually approaching, his eyes were full of long-lost determination and cruelty, and an imperceptible trace of nostalgia.

The clear morning light was blocked at the other end of the mountain by an invisible wall, and everything within sight seemed to have been soaked in ink, exuding a dead air.Thick, slurry-like darkness covered his field of vision layer by layer, leaving no trace of light behind.

Yue Jinye turned on the searchlight on the mask, tightly grasped the laser gun on the back of his waist, and quietly touched the southeast entrance of the stockade.The lush vegetation and flowers in the village were all covered by the lingering black mist, everything was silent and lifeless, even his own breathing seemed to be covered by the black air, dull and depressing.

Standing quietly behind the bamboo fence for a while, Yue Jinye carefully stepped onto the gravel road where people come and go.The loose stones rolled forward from his feet, and the crushing sound added a circle of ripples to the gloomy and dead morning.After rolling a few meters, the stone was blocked by a pile of objects lying in the middle of the road.

Fresh bloody smell... Yue Jinye narrowed his eyes, secretly pulled the bolt of the gun, and walked forward slowly.

The carcass of a lamb suddenly came into view.

Yue Jinye originally planned to use his feet to test whether the lamb was completely dead, but seeing the dead state of the lamb, he decided not to do any futile work—several bloody wounds ran through the lamb's throat to the belly line. Unusual and brutal, the ragged flesh and fur on the edge of the wound showed that the tens-centimeter-long gash was not cut by a sharp blade. At a glance, it seemed to be torn apart by a small tool with sharp horns formed.Yue Jinye pushed aside the sticky viscera scattered on the ground outside the wound, picked up the edge of the wound and inspected it, his brows furrowed more and more - the wound looked like it was bitten by some kind of wild beast, but it remained in the flesh. The teeth marks on the body are obviously the heaviest on the front teeth, followed by the canine teeth...but it doesn't look like wolves or dogs...

They did come back.

Complicated emotions hit Yue Jinye like a storm, and what came to mind instantly was not anger, but an indescribable trance—those people... came from his hometown after all.

However, Yue Jinye's eyes regained clarity the next moment, and he was keenly aware of the strange movement coming from the grass a few meters ahead: "Who's there? Come out!"

The grass swayed for a while and then returned to dead silence, as if everything just now was just Yue Jinye's hallucination.He stood still and watched for a few minutes, but still did not receive any response. Fearing that he would accidentally injure people in the village by shooting rashly, Yue Jinye finally put down his gun.Unexpectedly, when he was approaching the bushes, a swift and fierce figure rushed out, throwing him to the ground in an instant.

Yue Jinye was caught off guard, and slammed heavily on the gravel road. He was hit hard by the gun at his waist, and his face turned pale.However, the person who jumped on him didn't seem to be aware of it at all, just blindly put his face on Yue Jinye's neck, and his throat made a sound: "Hey hey hey hey...meat...fresh meat..."

"What's wrong with you? Can you hear me?" Yue Jinye put his right elbow on the ground and raised his left hand to push the man's face away, but the man's strength was amazing, and it took him a long time to force himself up Half body, "What happened in the village? Is everyone like this?"

"Hey hey... raw meat... the best... the best..."

Yue Jinye knew that the man had lost his mind, so he stopped talking nonsense, seized the gap, bent his knees and slammed into the attacker's belly, took advantage of the opportunity when the opponent curled up in pain, turned over, and slashed at the back of the attacker's neck with his backhand , stunned him cleanly, and threw it back into the grass to hide.

Worried about being attacked again, Yue Jinye used a steel cable with claws to hook the branches of the big tree beside the road and swung through the air all the way. Fortunately, the closer to the center of the village, the slower the scattered villagers moved. Yue Jinye retracted the cable fall on the ground
