The guard remembered that the hunter once mentioned to him that there was a mysterious person with supernatural powers. The supernatural powers were different from what the prophet said, and he could manipulate skeletons.The guard has always been skeptical about this, but he didn't expect to meet the deity this time and be rescued by the other party.

The guard grabbed the opponent's white glove, but the touch of his hand made him startled, and he even touched it twice with his fingertips uncertainly. This is: bone?

Before he could confirm, the other party had already withdrawn his hand.

Xia Xi retracted her hands into the wide sleeves, didn't say much with the guards, and concentrated on controlling the skeletons to fight with the third-level centipede.

His participation in the war stopped the one-sided defeat.The white bone in the skeleton's hand is like cast steel, easily resisting the sickle-like claws of the third-level centipede.Its posture is light, and it can easily make fighting movements that ordinary people cannot make.Wielding the spatula, at the most tricky angle, it attacked the third-level mutated centipede's soft belly seams time after time.

But this third-level mutant centipede is too big, and its carapace is ridiculously hard. Xia Xi can deal with it, but it will take enough time.

Now the third-level mutated centipede has dozens of fellows as helpers, but he only has one skeleton, so the battle is a bit tight.

The third-level mutated centipede also seemed to have discovered that Xia Xi was the greatest threat to it, and waved its long tentacles to touch the surrounding centipedes, sending out silent commands, and in a blink of an eye, more than half of the centipedes rushed towards Xia Xi.

Xia Xi protected a pair of bone hands in front of her body to defend against the low-level centipedes that rushed up, but there were too many centipedes, which were far beyond what a pair of bone hands could handle.

"Be careful!" A middle-aged man from the patrol stopped behind Xia Xi, blocking a mutated centipede that wanted to attack him.

"Thank you." Xia Xi turned around, but her eyes narrowed slightly.He saw several wounds caused by the centipede on the man who rescued him, which had turned black at the moment, and black pus and blood flowed out, and some interlaced black lines also appeared on the face of the middle-aged man.

This is a second-level body strengthening ability user with good strength and speed.Among this group of people, the strength is second only to the guards.The body enhancer's own ability to resist poison is good, but even so, the situation of the middle-aged man is not optimistic.

This reminded Xia Xi of the mutated spider poison that Zhang Lin was poisoned with before. The poison spread all over her body in less than a minute, killing Zhang Lin.And the centipede's poison looks somewhat similar to that of the spider's poison, and its power is comparable.

This gave Xia Xi a bad feeling.

"Be careful of the centipede's poison," Xia Xi reminded.

But this reminder is obviously too late, many members of the patrol team were poisoned in previous battles.After all, they were very reluctant to deal with these centipedes in the first place, and they were not injured at all, and it was almost impossible to do so.

A few seconds after Xia Xi finished speaking, a supernatural person suddenly became violent, foaming at the mouth, and knelt down on the ground in convulsions all over his body.

It's a girl who looks very young, about the age of high school.

"Yuyo!" The middle-aged man who had just helped Xia Xi swung the long knife in his hand vigorously, chopped a first-level centipede that was trying to attack the girl in two, turned around and hugged the girl up: "What's wrong with you, Yoyo?"

"Dad, I'm in so much pain." The girl curled into the man's arms and said in a trembling voice.There was a scar on her arm cut open by the claws, the wound was deep to the bone, and at this moment she was turning outwards ferociously, and yellow pus flowed out.She raised her head and vomited a big mouthful of black blood, her face was dark and purple, and her whole body began to swell exaggeratedly.

The originally calm face of the middle-aged man began to collapse: "You hold on a little longer, hold on a little longer, the hunting team has a team doctor, and they have an antidote. They will definitely be able to save you."

"Dad, you always don't listen to the theory class, antidote, you can't save people who have already been poisoned... I can't hold it anymore, Dad, you have to live well, protect my mother for me." The girl's eyes gradually collapsed.

"No, no...don't die, Yoyo, don't abandon Dad." The man hugged the girl in his arms and shook his head desperately.

"Dad! Promise me that you will live and protect mother!" The girl's convulsions became more and more severe, her out-of-focus eyes opened weakly, and her hands tightly clasped her father's wrists.

"I promise, I promise." Seeing that the girl's breathing gradually weakened, the man could only coax her.Even though he knew that he might not be able to do it, he didn't want his daughter to die and feel at ease.

"He can't protect it." Xia Xi ruthlessly exposed the man's lies, and with his bony hands, tore away a second-level mutant centipede that was rushing towards this side, and threw it against the wall.

He said coldly, "It's hard for him to even protect himself."

The man raised his head and looked at Xia Xi blankly.It seems that she doesn't quite understand why Xia Xi exposes her lies.

He also knew in his heart that it would be very difficult for them to survive.

But he had to stay, he had to fight.

After the apocalypse began, the middle-aged man and his daughter awakened their abilities one after another, but his wife was just an ordinary person.During those days of running around in the last days, he and his daughter were worried about his wife's safety every day.

It wasn't until they came to the refuge that the family of three had a stable life for a while.

Now that the refuge is in serious danger, he and his daughter can escape, but if the centipede is allowed to ravage and enter the accommodation area behind him, his wife, and many ordinary people like his wife, may die.

The man didn't want to die, but the poison on his body couldn't last long. He had no choice but to fight to the death. Those words were just to appease his dying daughter.

The black-robed man in front of him insisted on exposing him.

But he couldn't blame Xia Xi.If it weren't for this guy who came out of nowhere, controlled a skeleton and dragged down the first three-level mutant centipede, the group of them would have been wiped out before they persisted.

Xia Xi ignored the man's complex eyes, but looked down at the dying girl, and gently held the other's hand with a gloved hand: "Do you want to make a deal with me? After you die, I will use your bones to make a skeleton , In exchange, I will guard the refuge for you. As you can see, my skeletons have the power to fight centipedes, but the number is too small, which limits my ability to play."

"I'll make a deal with you!" The girl agreed without hesitation. She could no longer see her eyes, and she turned her eyes to Xia Xi subconsciously: "I will give you all the bones. Be sure, don't let these centipedes..."

Before the girl finished speaking, she closed her eyes.

Xia Xi heard the voice in the girl's consciousness, and she said: Don't let these centipedes hurt my mother.

"I promise you." Xia Xi raised her hand, and the white skeleton emerged from the girl's bloated body due to poisoning, and pieced together a brand new skeleton.The skeleton picked up the weapon that the girl dropped on the ground. It was a flamethrower, which matched the girl's fire ability.

At this stage, Xia Xi can't let the skeleton use its abilities, so the flamethrower in the girl's hand can only be temporarily wronged and used as a long stick.

The girl carried a long stick, and smashed the armor of a second-level skeleton with just one blow.It's a pity that the weapon was not strong enough, and it was also deformed because of this blow.

The skeleton looked blankly at the weapon in his hand, as if he didn't understand why it wasn't as strong as expected.

"It's okay, let's make another one you like." Xia Xi injected a steady stream of abilities into the body of the skeleton Yoyo, and the same flamethrower appeared in the girl's hand.It seems she likes her weapon very much.

The bone flamethrower is actually stronger than the original material.Holding the weapon, the girl charged into the battlefield again.

"long……"

This weird scene did not frighten the middle-aged man, on the contrary, it ignited new hope in his eyes.

He walked up to Xia Xi excitedly and said, "You lack skeletons, right? If I get poisoned later, you can turn me into a skeleton too. I am willing to use my bones to continue fighting these centipedes to the end!"

"I am willing too!" A poisoned youth said loudly to Xia Xi: "Take my bones and use them, as long as you can promise to drive away these hateful centipedes."

"Me too, as long as you can drive away the centipede, let alone bones, I will give you my life." Another young member of the patrol team said.

"And me. If you hadn't come to save us, we might have died just now. Since this pair of bones is useful to you, if I die, you can just take it away."

"I me me!"

"I also!"

……

The enthusiasm of the crowd made Xia Xi slightly at a loss.

The person in the mask was silent for a moment, and pulled the remaining half of his mouth: "I understand, you just let go and fight. I promise you, if you die, I will take your bones and continue to guard here for you until you are killed." The last centipede of the light invasion."

This strange promise revived the morale of the desperate team, and they rushed towards the mutated centipede swarm with a desperate attitude.

One, two, three fell in battle.

One, two, and three skeletons got up from the ground and entered the battle with a stronger posture.

The line of defense that had been crumbling by the centipede swarm became stronger. Instead, the mutated centipede was forced back from the corridor to the dormitory that first invaded by Xia Xi's fierce skeleton team.

The guard leaned weakly against the wall of the corridor, and withdrew from the battle circle. Just before the black-robed man rescued him, the claws had cut through his flesh and injected venom into his body.

The guard could feel the venom spreading through his body, gradually robbing him of his life force.But he couldn't die like this, at least not now.

15 minutes were short and long, and the members of the hunting team finally arrived.The person in charge of the team is Zhang Yunhan, who is highly valued by hunters.

Before Zhang Yunhan came, he had heard from the hunters that the situation here was not optimistic, and he was even prepared that the centipede would rush into the single dormitory before they assembled, but he didn't expect to walk all the way here from the assembly point, and there were only The crowd who hadn't had time to evacuate didn't even see a centipede.

Until they came near the battlefield in the centralized accommodation area.

A group of people stared at the scene in front of them wordlessly, and Qi Qi fell into silence.

The scene in front of him was really tragic, the ground was full of blood, severed limbs, and internal organs.It's so mixed that it's hard to tell who's is whose.

The guard leaned against the corner, dying, and waved at them with his last breath.

In the rooms of the centralized dormitory area, dead centipede corpses were densely packed, one on top of the other. There were three guards who were still alive, and all of them were poisoned. Strong and still able to fight.

In addition, there was a person wrapped in a black robe all over his body. Everyone didn't know whether the other person was a man or a woman, his age, or even whether he was alive or dead.He was commanding a dozen skeletons to beat the centipede group back steadily, and they were completely defeated.

Only Zhang Yunhan knew about this person, Xia Xi, and she even recognized the skeleton waving a spatula on the head of the third-level centipede. It was Zhang Lin, her sister.

Really, he clearly said he was going to leave, but he ran back to save others.

But it's also thanks to him coming, otherwise, the people in front of me might be far more than those who died today.

With enough skeletons, Xia Xi's strength increased exponentially.

Zhang Yunhan saw that he couldn't get involved in the battle, so he commanded the hunting team to rescue the few living people left on the battlefield.

"Antidote, hurry up! Give them all a shot." Zhang Yunhan called the team doctor in the hunting team to come forward.

"Okay." The team doctor took out an antidote from the box, and squatted next to the guard first: "Master Guard, the antidote is here, hold on."

But the guard held down the team doctor's hand: "No, I know my own body. The poison has already begun to attack, and I can't save it. Hurry up and give them a few who can be saved."

The young doctor can naturally see that the guard is already in a state of poison.But he was just not reconciled.Why did this poison attack so quickly.Obviously they have come, why they still can't be saved.If it was a few minutes earlier, maybe...

But now is not the time to be depressed, the team doctor nodded silently, carrying the medicine box, and ran to the other three rescued members of the patrol team.

Zhang Yunhan saw that the people had been rescued, and gave a second order: "A small team is here to guard, and the others will follow me to help deal with the mutant centipede. Skeletons are friendly troops, so don't beware. Be careful of the poison on the centipede's claws."

"Yes." The hunting team rushed to the battlefield in groups of several people.

At this time, Xia Xi had already killed seven or eight of the first- and second-level centipedes, and the third-level centipede was also seriously injured. One of the tentacles was cut off, several abdomen and legs were cut off, and the body was even poked a lot.

After the hunting team joined, the battle progressed even faster.Especially Zhang Yunhan, when others are still subconsciously afraid of the skeleton, she has already been able to put the ice shield on the skeleton very tacitly.

After a while, the last third-level mutant centipede fell to the ground, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Members of the hunting team habitually dig crystal nuclei.Zhang Yunhan stopped him and said, "The hunting team didn't do anything, and they won't participate in this distribution of crystal nuclei."

Then he looked at Xia Xi in black robe: "Thank you for your help."

Knowing that Zhang Yunhan had recognized her, Xia Xi nodded to her tacitly, commanded the skeleton to dig out all the centipede crystal nuclei, took away half of the first and second grade spars, and the only third grade spar.

"No need to thank you, I'm just here to hunt." Xia Xi said, looking at the skeleton team that grew overnight behind him: "And I've already been paid enough."

"Mr. Heipao, can you come over here?" Yoyo's father was one of the only three survivors. After he finished taking the antidote, his expression had already calmed down. At this time, he limped towards Xia Xi.

"What's the matter?" Xia Xi asked.

"Master Guard has a toxic attack and is about to die. He seems to have something to tell you."

Xia Xi heard the words and walked into the corridor.The situation of the guard's poison attack was similar to that of Yoyo before, with purple lines crawling all over his face, and his back was swollen like a big ball of cotton stuffed into his clothes.

The guard panted and waved his hand, signaling the other people around to stay away: "I have something to say, and I want to speak to this gentleman alone."

Everyone backed away obediently, leaving enough space for them to talk.The guard raised his head and looked at Xia Xi's masked face.

Xia Xi saw that he was struggling to raise his head, so he knelt down and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Xia Xi." The guard panted with difficulty: "You are Xia Xi, right?"

Xia Xi was slightly taken aback, but said nothing.

"I came across it by accident before. There are bones inside your bandage." The guard smiled smugly: "And your younger sister, Zhang Yunhan, doesn't even look at strangers when talking to them. But she just looked at you." Your eyes. Your voice has changed and you can't see your face, but I know it's yours. Natsuki."

Reasonable and well-founded, Xia Xi honestly admitted: "It's me."

"That's great." The guard laughed again, and his voice was intermittent: "So you're not dead, you're still so powerful. That's great. The first time I saw you, I thought you had a very special temperament. Sure enough, you have a secret..."

Xia Xi pursed her lips.He still remembers meeting the guards for the first time.He looks gentle and shrewd, wearing a pair of metal-rimmed glasses, looking very unfriendly.Xia Xi had a mediocre impression of the guard at the time, because he could see that he had something wrong with him, but the guard finally helped him out.Treated myself to lunch and ice cream afterwards.He's a nice guy.

Now, he is also going to die.People who treat themselves well and like themselves rarely die well.This made Xia Xi feel a little sad.

"Are you still short of bones?" the guard asked Xia Xi.

"No." Xia Xi said honestly.

After reaching the third level, he can already control about thirty skeletons, but now he only has fourteen in his hand, which is far from reaching the upper limit.

"Then, I'll give you my bones too."

"What do you want?"

"No request, I just want to protect you. Little beauty, you know, I like you."

"I'm not beautiful now." Xia Xi reached out to lift off the mask, revealing the face on the left that had turned into bones.

"Beautiful, the beauty is beyond the skin." The guard's breath gradually weakened, but there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "I know, you don't like me, it's okay. Just treat it as fulfilling my wish, I want to protect you."

"Okay." Xia Xi would not refuse a bone delivered to his door, even if this person was his admirer in life.

Xia Xi left from the hole.Fifteen white bones were too ostentatious, Xia Xi hid them in the ground, controlled the bones to swim, and kept up with him.

According to Xia Xi's instructions, the crow waited obediently at the fork in the tunnel, and Xia Xi fed it a few second-level crystals.At the same time, he wondered why the crow flew to the shelter so eagerly just now.

The crow's ability to perceive supernatural powers is not much stronger than itself, so it is impossible to perceive the situation of the refuge at such a long distance.Besides, even if it can sense that a large number of centipedes are attacking the shelter, it has no position to protect the people in the shelter.

But when Xia Xi came out of the refuge, the scene in front of him stunned him.It turned out that it wasn't just the crows. During the time they were fighting, there were hundreds of mutated animals gathered outside the shelter.If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Xia Xi wouldn't even know that there were so many mutated animals hidden near the shelter.

These mutated animals were not as aggressive as the mutated centipede just now, nor did they rush into the shelter rashly, but like the little crow, they gathered outside the cave entrance for unknown reasons.

Some even took the opportunity to fight and devour each other.

As soon as Xia Xi appeared, many mutated animals around turned their eyes, attacked and robbed each other, as if they regarded Xia Xi as a piece of fat delivered to their door.

Xia Xi still didn't know what happened.But with so many prey in front of him, he wouldn't be polite.

Fifteen skeletons emerged from the ground and lined up in front of Xia Xi.Xia Xi held the third-level crystal nucleus in his hand and supplemented the consumed powers. He looked coldly at the mutated animal that rushed over, and said with a sneer, "I didn't enjoy the fight just now, little crow. It seems that we can have a bumper harvest tonight."

When Chaomo's convoy arrived, what he saw was the scene where Xia Xi commanded the skeleton to fight hundreds of mutant animals alone.

Under the moonlight, Xia Xi was dressed in a black robe, like a ghost, his figure briskly shuttled between skeletons and mutated animals. His white-gloved hands danced lightly, with elegant and crisp movements, as if he was directing a game called Symphony of death.

Following his movements, the mutated animals that pounced on him fell down one after another.A crow nimbly fetched their hedrons for him.This is an unsuspecting, one-sided hunt.

The battle lasted for nearly half an hour, until the mutated animals recognized the fact that the person in front of them was not a prey but a hunter, and all backed away, never daring to go forward again.

Xia Xi was too focused on the fight, until he stopped and found several familiar off-road vehicles in the distance.Jing Lan, Chao Mo, and a dozen of his team members stood in front of the car one by one, staring at him with piercing eyes.
