112: Chapter 112 Ants!
"Elder Fei is right,"
Kang Mo nodded slightly,
"Everything here really does look like someone else has tampered with it. Perhaps only after we truly delve deeper will we be able to uncover the truth about this place."
"Indeed,"
Fei Erfeng nodded slightly, then waved his hand to signal,
"Everyone, the road ahead will be extremely dangerous. Please be very careful."
...
Meanwhile, inside the official command room of the Taklamakan Desert Forbidden Zone,
Zhu Yongfeng looked at Qian Pingning, who had left early, with some confusion, and immediately ordered his adjutant to follow.
At the same time, the Kyoto Archaeology Institute sent him some relevant information directly.
"The legend of Blood City? This was actually unearthed in the Diannan Forbidden Zone? That is truly surprising."
After a quick glance, he deeply felt the danger contained in the underground city where the people of the so-called Ancient Kingdom of Jingjue once lived.
"Pseudo-human? There's such a thing?"
While surprised, Zhu Yongfeng quickly had his staff report the specific situation in writing.
After all, whoever could penetrate deeper right now would be of great benefit to solving the secret of how the Forbidden Zone was formed.
"It is a pity that Song Yiqing has truly sacrificed himself,"
he muttered to himself, unable to stop sighing.
But suddenly! An alarm went off abruptly, and red light flashed instantly throughout the entire command room!!
In the surveillance footage from the edge area, a huge Desert Giant Sloth appeared!!
Its skull-like face appeared terrifyingly in everyone's eyes.
"What is going on! Why is the Desert Ground Sloth starting to move outward?"
"Why! What on earth is going on?"
"Could it be because of what happened in the Demon Tower?? The monsters in the core area are spreading outward, doesn't that mean the area of the Forbidden Zone is expanding??"
Everyone at the scene exclaimed excitedly,
and Zhu Yongfeng's expression was grim to the extreme as he roared,
"Deploy the artillery shells!! If one isn't enough, throw everything we have at them! Absolutely do not allow these monsters to leave the Forbidden Zone! They must not be allowed to step into human cities!"
But just as he finished speaking, an urgent voice came through his headset—it was his adjutant's voice,
"General! That bastard Qian Pingning let two people in! These two people are terrifying!! They can actually punch through a one-inch thick steel armored door!"
"What did you say!!"
Zhu Yongfeng was furious on the spot and did not hesitate to send soldiers to attempt a siege.
But in the next second, he saw on the surveillance screen that two figures were rushing towards that Desert Giant Sloth with agile movements.
For a moment, the confusion in Zhu Yongfeng's heart kept rising.
And in the next second, boom!!! Instantly, the Desert Giant Sloth's head exploded!!
Then, those two figures continued to speed away as if they had just done something ordinary, completely disappearing into the vast sea of sand.
The command room was dead silent.
Unknown entities had entered the Taklamakan Desert Forbidden Zone, and one of them had even shattered the head of a Desert Giant Sloth with a single punch.
This was an existence that even a single artillery shell could not directly damage, an existence that even Song Yiqing dared not confront directly.
Yet now, it had been killed like a chicken or a monkey by two people of unknown origin.
Zhu Yongfeng immediately ordered the interrogation of Qian Pingning, but the adjutant reported that Qian Pingning had already committed suicide, leaving behind one sentence before doing so: "Ants."
...
Meanwhile, in Blood City, after Song Yiqing killed the Heaven-Swallowing Blood Fox, he quickly began to absorb the spirit within its body. After simply digesting the newly acquired Qiankun Technique, he led the group to venture deeper.
He also knew about the map that Kang Mo had left behind before leaving, but what he hadn't expected was that the dense symbols on this map were left by Wang Shan's father. However, even he couldn't understand the symbols on it; only Wang Shan could read them.
"What does the map say?" Song Yiqing leaned over and asked.
Wang Shan replied, "Blood City has now become a giant labyrinth, hiding dangers everywhere. If we want to pass through here, we need to take the path my father once walked."
"Is that so?" Song Yiqing rubbed his chin, unable to help but feel puzzled. "It's really strange! Why can Wang Shan's father or Little Brother go in without injury, but our group can't? And we have to force our way through. Could it be that this Forbidden Zone just doesn't like the look of us?"
Just as he was wondering, he noticed Zhang Qilin's gaze.
"Hmm? Little Brother, what do you mean by that? Do you mean the Forbidden Zone just doesn't like the look of me??"
"Yes," Zhang Qilin replied heavily, which made Song Yiqing feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Hey, hey, hey! What kind of talk is that! Does having a high appearance mean I have to suffer such discrimination? This is discrimination, it's discrimination! Everyone!"
Everyone heard this and felt helpless, shaking their heads one after another.
At this time, Fatty stood beside Song Yiqing and nodded slightly, "Lord Song, I understand your pain. Perhaps in this team, only we are in the same boat."
"..." Song Yiqing looked at the other party's confident appearance with a twitching mouth, and for a moment, he helplessly shook his head.
Then he continued to follow Wang Shan. The structure of Blood City was very unique; it was not built according to Feng Shui, Bagua, or Qimen Dunjia. Therefore, to get through, they had to rely on the map written by Wang Shan's father.
Just as he was walking, Wang Xianzhi behind him patted him on the shoulder.
"What are you doing?"
"Fight me!"
Wang Xianzhi's eyes were full of burning fighting spirit.
Song Yiqing shook his head slightly, "You can't."
"!!!" Wang Xianzhi was instantly furious. "Why do you say that about me!"
"You passed out just from slashing a Mongoose Gate; what use are you?"
As Song Yiqing said this, he patted Fatty's shoulder, "Tell this little sister how Lord Song slew the Heaven-Swallowing Blood Fox?"
"Oh my, Little Sword Saint, you don't know!" Fatty immediately began to describe Song Yiqing's operations at that time vividly, which left Wang Xianzhi stunned.
"You can control five swords??" Wang Xianzhi grasped the main point. "How can you control five swords??"
"What kind of talk is that!" Song Yiqing said casually. "You can comprehend Sword Intent, so what are five swords?"
"You!" Wang Xianzhi was suddenly speechless, feeling angry, but Song Yiqing was indeed right.
Then she said directly, "Give me one."
"Get lost as far as you can!" Song Yiqing walked away quickly with disgust.
Wang Xianzhi chased after him, asking for one. "Then fight me!! Hurry up!"
"Crazy!" Song Yiqing tried to shake her off in disgust, but suddenly! A figure appeared around the corner ahead...
