to blame

Ming Xia had an extremely ominous premonition in his heart.

That color... that sheen...

The entire valley shook suddenly, followed by a dull crash.

Ming Xia didn't sense where the impact came from, but his eyes were glued to the blackness exposed on the snow peak as if possessed.

Another impact, and the smoke and dust, wrapped in broken rocks, fell from the top of the mountain.

"It wasn't an earthquake." Nanjiang and his people had already retreated to the side of the river bed, at the foot of the No. [-] peak.But at this time, the mountain suddenly shook, and the entire mountain was affected. It is really not a good idea to go back to the secret passage under such circumstances.

Nan Jiang reluctantly told Tang Xun, "Prepare the protective cover."

When Ming Xia heard the word "protective shield", his heart skipped a beat, and he was about to ask Nan Jiang if the protective shield he meant was what he had imagined.Lin Su beside him let out a low cry of surprise.

Ming Xia looked back, and saw that a gap had been opened in the distant snowy peak, and a huge black object appeared in the gap.

Maybe it was because the size of this thing was too huge, Ming Xia couldn't tell what it was in the first place.Or he actually recognized it, but it was intellectually difficult to admit it.

The huge black creature poked in from the gap on the top of the mountain, and after a very short pause, it rushed straight down from the top of the mountain.

"It's the water beetle!" Ming Xia's exclamation got stuck in his throat.

This unbelievably huge size, hurricane-like speed, and those huge yellow-green pupils surging with ferocious murderous intent made him wake up instantly: this is not the clone who was worried when they met by the lake, but The true body of the water lily!

Not long ago, Ming Xia felt that they were too far away from Xuefeng, but at this moment, he sincerely felt that the distance was too close!

The huge black snake head fell into the river water at the foot of the mountain with a bang, and then, amidst the splashing water, it slid towards their direction like a cloud and fog like lightning.

Ming Xia's line of sight didn't even have time to capture its trajectory, this ancient monster had already leaped across the canyon, rushing towards them along the suddenly rising river.

Tang Xun's panicked voice floated in Ming Xia's ears, "Preparation...not finished...can't hold on..."

Ming Xia thought early that when their team entered the realm of monsters, they would definitely have a hole card to save their lives, just like the protective shield in his body.But can the protective shield developed by the "Sixth Group" really protect them all?Is it okay to face a monster like a water lizard?

An instrument that human beings painstakingly researched and used to deal with monsters.Ming Xia subconsciously raised the corner of her mouth.He thought of those red dots and yellow dots displayed on Tang Xun's instrument... Are they really that reliable?Or to put it another way, how big is the reliable ratio?

Is there any data to support this technology?

Out of the corner of Ming Xia's eyes, she caught a glimpse of Li Youran still far away, so she didn't have time to run over.And the two arrows she released while running did not cause any trouble to the water lizard at all.

If it was said that when dealing with that clone before, it would dodge and shake its head a few times when facing the incoming arrows, then this time, it didn't even blink its eyes at all.

Behind him, an electronic sound began to prompt, "The countdown to the opening of the shield. Ten... nine... eight... seven..."

Ming Xia knew clearly that it was too late.

They didn't have time to wait for the protective cover with mysterious performance to be opened. Nanjiang was still cooperating with Tang Xun to adjust the instrument, Li Youran was still running towards this side, and Qingqiu...

Ming Xia's heart trembled slightly, Qingqiu was still waiting to leave the old town after serving his sentence, to see the modern life well.It also wants to learn to drive, learn to use a mobile phone...

It hasn't had time to try anything.

The black giant rushed to the front like lightning.

Ming Xia clearly felt the heat rising between his chest and abdomen.For a moment, this body seemed out of his control. He wanted to stop and look back at his teammates, but he couldn't do it.

His body seemed to be taken over by something, he passively obeyed the command of "it" and walked forward, facing the rampaging behemoth, and then... in the energy fluctuations that made him extremely uncomfortable, he pushed away the ancestor Jiuxiao The protective cover left.

Someone behind him exclaimed, "Ming Xia! Come back!"

Ming Xia heard the voice, but couldn't tell who was calling him.It was dark in front of his eyes, only a small white light was shining in the center of the protective cover, shining brightly, like a firefly in the dark night.

However, this is just a phantom of the shield on his retina.Ming Xia didn't have time to distinguish the crane shadow in the center of the light group, so through a translucent layer of film, he saw the huge black shadow coming head-on.

At the moment of impact, what Ming Xia felt was not pain.

His world seemed to be sucked into a vacuum in an instant. There was no light, no sound, and even the sense of touch was lost. He became a spirit body, floating unconsciously in the darkness.

In the next second, an extremely bright light exploded in front of him.Hearing, tactile senses that failed for a short time... all came back again, and hit him head-on, shaking his internal organs as if they were shattered into slag.

Ming Xia knew that he had collided head-on with the water beetle again, and the strange thing was that he didn't lose consciousness.Or maybe this sobriety was just his illusion.

Changing the perspective, Ming Xia saw himself dragging his dilapidated body and falling on the river beach, his face was covered in blood.Nan Jiang and the others were already covered by the protective cover that was opened later. They crowded on the other side of the protective cover, but they couldn't get out anyway. They could only scream at the unknown body on the river beach in vain.

Ming Xia felt a little sad, so she stopped looking at them.

He saw that his legs and feet were lying on the rocky beach, and they were already wet by the waves created by the water lizard. Even half of his body was already soaked in the water. If the water level continued to rise, it would drown his body. head off.

Of course, it doesn't matter, or he is dead, otherwise how can he still watch all this from a third-person perspective?

Above his corpse, a semicircular shield with a diameter of about ten meters has been opened, covering him like a transparent soap bubble.In the center of the shield, a crane with wings outstretched gave off a soft white light.

The first time Ming Xia saw the figure of his ancestor, he felt a sense of surprise and admiration in his heart.However, seeing it again, Ming Xia felt a kind of...fear from the bottom of his heart.

Outside the protective cover, the water lizard had shrunk back after a violent impact. With its huge head held high, it kept swallowing and circling the soap bubble cautiously.

It has seen this thing before, but it just didn't take advantage of it at the time. This time... it seems to be even more disadvantaged. When the protective cover is opened, the force of backlash is enough to smash its skull. Going unconscious.

Shui Fei hissed to the sky full of unwillingness, raised his head high, and planned to do it again.It wants to smash the thing that blocks it, and swallow the little human inside.

Ming Xia knew that his body was protected in the cover, but when he saw the black body coiled up around the protective cover, he still felt indescribably frightened and disgusted.

He floated in mid-air, trying to rush back into his body, but unfortunately, that layer of soap-bubble-like protective shield blocked even him.

Several collisions failed, and just when he was about to give up this silly idea, he saw something seemed to move in the white light in the center of the cover.

Shui Fei seemed to notice something, and raised his head vigilantly.

The white light on the protective cover flickered, and a white phantom slowly floated up.Slender neck, wings spread out in the wind.

That is a crane.

Ming Xia, who was floating in mid-air, suddenly felt heart palpitations.

That vain crane shadow seemed to have a fatal attraction to him, he wanted to get close, but hesitated, but this feeling was also out of his control.

The first person to notice Ming Xia's anomaly was Nan Jiang, but he stretched out his hand to pull him, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.That seemed to be Ming Xia's shield.

At the same time, with Tang Xun's low curse, the instrument in his hand suddenly exploded with a burst of sparks, startling the surrounding people.

As soon as Nanjiang turned his head, he saw a circle of light waves with Tang Xun as the center.

The protective cover is stretched open.

But at this time, the water pheasant was less than a hundred meters away from them.

Nan Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, and picked it up again.This is the first time their action team has applied for the use of a protective cover, and the opponent is a monster of the level of the water scorpion. I am afraid that Mr. Hu will not dare to guarantee the effect.

Out of the corner of Nan Jiang's eye, he caught a glimpse of Ming Xia still walking out, as if he didn't notice the protective shield at all.In fact, the protective shield did not have any effect on him, and he just walked out.

Nan Jiang rushed over in shock, but was stopped by the protective shield again.This time, it was their own protective shield.

"Ming Xia!"

Nan Jiang knew that his voice would be blocked by the shield, but he still shouted at the top of his lungs.

At this moment, the water pheasant crashed into it like a fast-moving train.

The world in front of him was spinning, and huge waves rolled up overwhelmingly, almost submerging the entire protective cover.Under this almost terrifying impact, the shield was like a small bubble, swaying in the waves.

The people inside the protective cover huddled together, and Nan Jiang's face was even stepped on twice. When he finally pushed aside the legs blocking his eyes, he realized that within a few minutes of the protective cover being overturned, , the two parties that collided have retreated separately.

The water pheasant lowered its huge head, and aggressively made an attacking gesture.On the opposite side of it, Ming Xia collapsed on the rocky beach with blood all over his face, above him, a white shadow was slowly floating up.

The water pheasant spit out a bright red letter and made a threatening hiss, but its body moved back a little very cautiously.

The white shadow spread its huge wings against the wind, and soared into the sky under the vigilant gaze of the water sparrow.

The protective cover shook violently, and Nan Jiang struggled to maintain his balance.When he got out from under the arm of his companion again, he found that the situation outside had changed again.

The white shadow that floated up from Ming Xia's protective cover has grown larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the white mist-like figure has become more and more solid.It flapped its wings like a real crane, and then swooped down at an incredible speed, fighting with the water gizzard.

Nan Jiang was so shocked that he forgot to breathe.

This... is this really just the residual consciousness sealed in the protective shield by Jiuxiao?Why did he feel that what he saw did not quite match the ancient legend?

Bai He's strength was beyond everyone's expectations.

Every attack of it can penetrate the scales and flesh of the water lizard—those scales that cannot be penetrated by specially treated weapons are vulnerable to a single blow under the sharp beak and claws of the white crane.

No matter how violently the water squirrel twists its body, the white crane can always subtly seize those fleeting opportunities, freely pass through the small gap exposed by the water squirrel's tumbling body, and take the opportunity to attack it.

The water lizard finally realized that its huge body can deter humans, but it has become a heavy target in front of the white crane, so it shrinks its body, trying to avoid this inevitable attack.

The originally not spacious valley has become beyond recognition.

Cracked rocks filled the river bed, and the pine forest on the east bank disappeared, becoming a messy slope full of cracked rocks and messy broken pine trees.

After the water level of the Dun River rose sharply, it quickly fell back. Nanjiang's protective cover was left in a shallow depression near Exit No. [-], swaying back and forth from time to time with the shock waves sent by the monsters.Like a boat swaying back and forth on a stormy sea.

At this time, Ming Xia could no longer be seen within Nanjiang's field of vision.Except for a piece of ruins that had just been created, there were only two figures, one black and one white, fighting together in the middle of the valley.

Even through a protective shield, Nan Jiang couldn't help but squint his eyes.

They moved so fast that he couldn't see their tracks clearly.There is only a whirlwind of black and white on the retina, swirling here from time to time, smashing a piece of rock, and hitting there again from time to time, creating a big crater.

However, the river beneath them gradually turned red.

Nan Jiang's heart was full of uncertain anxiety: Is there really a genetic relationship between Bai He and Ming Xia?It really needs to be attached to Ming Xia's body to exist?

Why didn't it go to rescue Ming Xia?Does it even know where Ming Xia is?

Is he... still alive?
