Chapter 3105: A sharp turn for the worse (1)
Translator: 549690339
When he left the secret base, the bearded man heard the news that a total of 21 cultivators had been ambushed.
One by one, the names fell into his ears. Although they weren’t loud, they were like thunder in his heart.
It was dizzying.
The enemy’s trap was too powerful. All of these cultivators had been killed, and now only their names were left.
Big beard and the others fell silent at the same time.
They were all comrades from the same camp, so their relationship couldn’t be considered close, but they knew each other.
Although he was used to seeing life and death, the big-bearded man still felt an inexplicable heartache at this moment.
If it was during the darkest time, no one would care about the news of sacrifice, because everyone was in a precarious situation. It was very likely that he would be the one to die the next time.
However, things were different now.
Seeing hope come, but he was not able to witness it, this was a kind of sadness.
The living felt sorry for the dead, but they were also helpless.
Because everyone knew that the moment before dawn was the darkest and also the most difficult to endure.
In the process of leaving, big beardy was always thinking about how to deal with these hidden traps.
In fact, it was just as Tang Zhen had said. The reason why they encountered the trap was because they did not expect the enemy to use such a method.
Lile trap was because they did not expect the enemy to use such a method.
If he observed carefully, he would definitely be able to find something wrong and then launch a targeted attack.
The series of explosions they’d experienced earlier had confirmed the area was a dangerous place.
In order to prevent the enemy from using the star destruction cannon, the secret base had to be moved immediately to a new area.
Big beard and the others had to patrol one more time before they left to get as many energy crystals as possible.
The other purpose was to find the possible survivors and bring them back to the secret base.
In Tang Zhen’s words, the value of the survivors far exceeded the energy crystals. They absolutely couldn’t be allowed to die painfully in this desperate situation.
Although the lives of ordinary people were not worth mentioning in the eyes of most cultivators, things were different now.
The number of survivors was decreasing, and every one of them should be cherished. Furthermore, due to the existence of the runic magic circle, ordinary people could also have the qualifications to practice.
They could improve the strength of the team and also get rich rewards, so the cultivators would naturally do their best.
Out of safety considerations, big beard and the others made a special trip to the area that had just been bombed in an attempt to collect some relevant data.
For example, he could determine the type of weapon, the specific destructive power, and whether there was a need to set up warning signs.
After all, there were many weapons that would leave behind damage after an attack. In serious cases, it could even endanger one’s life.
After arriving at the scene, they discovered that the originally dilapidated city had now been completely reduced to ruins.
The central area of the explosion had now become a deep giant pit, with a strange, stinky, sticky liquid that was emitting a fluorescent green light.
It looked beautiful, but it was actually very dangerous.
The moment he got close, the bearded man felt a tingling sensation as if it was going to drill into his skin.
The perception from his soul was frantically reminding big beardy that the liquid could pose a fatal threat to his life.
The viciousness of the Reapers was once again revealed.
The collectors and harvesters were not living beings, so they were not afraid of this terrible poison, but the survivors were bound to suffer.
Upon closer inspection, the big-bearded man was furious to find that the poison of unknown origin was in a state of eruption.
This poison could spread in all directions like a gray fog and poison the survivors nearby.
Because of the gray fog, the survivors couldn’t find the poisonous fog at all, and they would be poisoned without knowing it.
One could imagine that it wouldn’t take long for the nearby area to become a true forbidden land of death.
Big beardy gritted his teeth in anger. He knew the Bastion’s vicious methods weren’t limited to just this.
Other than this Lake filled with poison, the other party would not mind throwing poisonous smoke and mines to ambush the poor survivors.
In short, in the face of a planet in its harvest period, the Reapers would definitely not give up easily.
Since the existence of survivors was the biggest obstacle to the harvest, he had to find a way to kill all the survivors.
If the survivors could create a gray fog that covered the planet, with the strength of the Reapers, how could they not create a poisonous smoke that covered the planet?
As for the interference caused by the gray fog, as long as all the survivors were killed, many problems would be solved.
Without the maintenance of the survivors, the runic magic circle would become a source of water, and it would dry up sooner or later.
The Reapers ‘counterattack was silent, but it brought a fatal blow to the survivors, and there was no end to it.
The bearded man’s heart was heavy. His brows were tightly furrowed as he pondered about the solution to the problem.
The bearded man wished he had Tang Zhen’s strength so he could directly attack the bastions.
At that time, he would kill the Reapers regardless of the consequences and take revenge for the blood feud.
Of course, this was just a thought. With his cultivation, he could barely fly, so it was impossible for him to enter outer space.
Even if he were to fly into space, what could he do if he was alone?
The Bastion’s location was practically invincible, rendering most of the natives helpless.
Even if they had weapons that could attack outer space, they would be intercepted by bastions and would be of no use.
The more big beard thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn’t help but roar at the sky.
When his companions saw this, they shook their heads gently. They could understand the big-bearded man’s mood.
These damned Reapers were too vicious. They simply wanted to wipe out all the survivors.
Their thoughts were similar to the big-bearded man’s. They were also willing to exchange their broken bodies for the peace and tranquility of this world. It was a pity that they did not have the strength to do so and could not change their fate.
The appearance of the gray fog gave the survivors a ray of hope, but the enemy’s counterattack was far faster than expected.
Although he was unwilling, the more desperate he was, the more he couldn’t be discouraged. Otherwise, he would really fall into a state of collapse.
Big beard and the others made up their minds. They continued to patrol one more round and then reported the news back to the secret base.
The situation was becoming more and more severe, and the survivors had to discuss countermeasures as soon as possible. Otherwise, the hope that had just sprouted would be ruthlessly killed by the Reapers.
Just as the big-bearded man was feeling sorrowful, that strange fluctuation once again passed through his body.
The big-bearded man raised his head in confusion and looked around silently, but his eyes were full of anger.
This kind of fluctuation of unknown origin had appeared on his body more than once, and each time it would flash.
In the big-bearded man’s eyes, this was a provocation, a deliberate teasing.
Regardless of the other party’s background, its actions had successfully provoked the big-bearded man’s anger.
Especially the big-bearded man, who was in a state of grief and indignation, like a huge barrel of gunpowder.
With just a little spark, it could be successfully ignited.
He glared at his surroundings with his blood -red eyes and let out a beast-like roar.
“Damn b * stard, don’t provoke me again, or I won’t let you off!”
The big-bearded man issued a warning to the other party not to provoke him again, or he would bear the consequences.
An unknown place, an unknown existence.
