I'm the only player

Chapter 358 [Brother, you smell so good! ]

"No, Captain Nine. You only said it was dangerous, but what kind of danger is it?" Shi Si acted as a substitute for someone else and asked while running.

"What's the danger?"

Around the ninth day, he glanced at the two of them and said again.

"Then you two will see it for yourself. I can't describe the horror just by talking about it. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you deeply experience the horror of the demon fog."

After saying this, he seemed to remember something and continued.

"Let me remind you two first, the word '妖' in '妖雾' does not refer to a demon, but to something abnormal!"

The three of them ran at full speed until it was getting dark.

"We can't go on. Don't rush after dark. Otherwise, there's a high probability that something will happen. Unless the evil fog is right behind us, we'll have to set up camp even if the king of heaven comes."

Jiuri stopped and started to set up the tent while the sun was still shining. First, he took out a handful of ash from his pocket and scattered it in a circle. The circle was just big enough to accommodate the next tent.

"What are you doing?"

Shi Si couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"The three of us are close friends, so I won't hide some things from you two. As for the ash, I got it by chance when I was pioneering ten years ago.

At that time, I was the only one who escaped from the strange incident in a team of more than 100 people. I entered a cave by mistake and injured my legs. If I wanted to walk, I could only crawl.

I thought I was doomed, but it just stayed in front of the cave entrance and didn't dare to go in. As the saying goes, there is always a way out. I knew there was something in the cave that could restrain the other party.

Later, I crawled around in the cave, looking for something to hit that thing, to see what could make it dare not take a step forward. Finally, I found a skeleton. I threw out the thigh bone, and the thing ran away with its head in its hands.

Shi Si looked at the circle of ashes and thought about the word "dry bones" again.

You are not the right person!
"What are you thinking? Who knows how many years that skeleton has been there? When I picked it up, it all turned into ash. What can I do? Naturally, I collect it and keep it for future use.

Also, please don't report this. At the beginning, I didn't say a word. It's not just me. Everyone in the pioneering world knows that the people in the Federation who study the wilderness are a bunch of rubbish.

How many pioneering groups have obtained things from the wilderness, but after handing them over to the higher-ups, they have not researched anything and wasted good things. Give it to them? I might as well give it to a dog!"

In response to this, He Sheng spoke up.

"Captain Jiu, don't worry. Who doesn't have some secrets in this world? What we have seen and heard is all in the wilderness. Once we return to Taiyue City, we will lose our memories."

Why did Jiuri show some abilities today?
The purpose was to establish a relationship with two young masters with powerful backgrounds, which he might not be able to use in the future. However, his son might be able to use it someday.

Basically, through the fifth-level demon wild boar group, the sixth-level demon human-headed beast, and the demon tide during the day, it can be determined that the He family will definitely be the most powerful person in the federation in the future.

If you don't hold on to my thighs now, when will you?

What is the fastest way to bring men closer together?
A secret that belongs only to the three of them!
"Captain Nine, how long are we going to escape?" Shi Si asked. He thought that they only had one day left to return to the city, but accidents happened one after another and they had to go further and further away.

Because of their desperate rush, the three of them traveled a longer distance than they had traveled in the past two days. It was normal to travel slowly, because they had to be alert and observe their surroundings at all times. If they traveled too fast and ran into a "circle", they would probably die.

"Look."

Jiuri took out a map from his pocket and pointed to a white mark.

“We should be here.”

The finger moved and stopped not too far from the white mark.

"In two days, we will almost reach a safe place. I mean we should hurry up as fast as we can, not dawdle as we did in the past few days. Don't worry, with the evil fog, all the strange things in the wilderness will stop."

"Why."

Shi Si was puzzled.

"Because no matter if it's a demon or a strange thing, they are all afraid of the demon fog! I don't know the specific reason, but I am sure they are afraid of the demon fog."

You have lived for a long time and you are an expert in wilderness survival, we believe you.

"Captain Nine, what does the white mark you just pointed to mean?"

He Sheng asked.

"Haha, the white mark is the Pure Land, a very safe place, and it is also our destination. The so-called Pure Land is a place without fighting, killing, or strange things. Back then, I also stumbled upon it by accident.

At that time, I saw demons, teammates, and banned warriors drowned in the demon fog, so I ran away. I ran for three days, and suddenly I saw countless demons, insects, and other creatures gathered here.

The strange thing is that there was no fighting between them. Even a first-level demon could drink water side by side with a sixth-level demon by the lake. Then, I gritted my teeth and went straight in.

After I entered, the demons didn't care, as if my entry was a normal situation. Later, I communicated with a demon that could speak human language.

I learned that this place is the Pure Land, where everyone hides from the evil fog. The evil fog will stay at the edge of the Pure Land and cannot enter. Fighting is strictly prohibited inside the Pure Land. If anyone breaks the rules, everyone will rush over and eat him up. "

Upon hearing this, the two looked at the several white marks on the map and thought to themselves that they were worth a lot of money.

No wonder you have become a legend in the world of pioneers. You are bold and careful, and can communicate normally with monsters.

"and after?"

"After the demon fog dissipated, the demon that could speak human language wanted to eat me when we stepped out of the Pure Land. Unfortunately, I killed him instead."

"."

Who asked you, a demon, to know human language?

What we want to ask is, when did the evil fog dissipate!

"Cough cough."

Jiuri seemed to notice that the two were speechless and coughed a few times.

"The evil fog will linger outside the Pure Land for about three days, then it will completely dissipate. Go to sleep, and run away at dawn tomorrow."

Nothing happened that night, and the next day dawned.

Last night, no one was on guard.

Under the evil fog, all strange things have to be put aside, and there is no point in keeping watch all night.

Early in the morning, the three of them got up.

"Gan!"

Shi Si looked at the evil fog not far away and couldn't help but curse.

"Now you know why you have to run in the morning? No matter how far you run during the day, this thing is like a maggot on the tarsal bone. You will definitely see it the next day."

Jiuri smiled as he packed up the tent and carefully placed the ashes into a specially made bag.

"Old Nine, Old Nine, why don't you just tell me what's going on? Why do you have to let me see it with my own eyes?"

Because of the secret, the relationship between the three of them has become closer than ever. At least, Shi Si feels that Ji Ri is his friend.

"Walk."

Jiuri set off first, while He Sheng swallowed the last biscuit and took a sip of water on the other side.

"Old Shi, never use your privacy or your secrets to get closer to others."

He patted Shi Si's shoulder and warned him.

"As the saying goes: You can know a person's face but not his heart. What's more, what you think is a secret may not be a secret. Even if it is a secret, how much is hidden in it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he followed closely and caught up with Jiu Ri who was fleeing far away.

"Brother Sheng, I'm not stupid. I know that he wants to get closer to the two of us on the 9th, and I want him to do so. After all, the two of us are in the wilderness and have to rely on others."

After muttering something, he followed.

Two days later, the three of them arrived at the Pure Land safely.

Just as Jiuri said, this place is indeed like a pure land. Here, you can see all kinds of demons, but the highest level is only the sixth level demon. In addition, there are some huge insects.

Insects are actually quite powerful. In the wilderness, they occasionally see some relatively powerful insects preying on some low-level demons.

"Old Nine, that thing shouldn't be a demon, right?" Shi Si pointed at a thing wrapped in bandages that looked like a mummy.

"One of the weird things."

What? Strange?

Regarding Shi Si’s expression that almost made his eyes pop out, Jiuri continued.

"Didn't I say the day before yesterday that under the demon fog, even if there are strange things, we still have to run away. Some strange things are invisible, and some are visible.

Generally speaking, invisible things are much more terrifying than visible things, and their lethality is even more ferocious. This kind of visible strange thing should be the result of people who died in an accident, coupled with the weirdness of the wilderness. "

"Woooooo~~~"

After a burst of miscellaneous shouts, a large group of demons and insects suddenly ran to the edge of the Pure Land.

Then, a gray mist appeared in the distance.

Outside, some low-level demons, bugs, and even tangible monsters were running for their lives.

Unfortunately, perhaps because the speed was too slow, the evil fog enveloped us.

The next second, a horrifying scene appeared.

All living things dried up in an instant, as if their bodies had decayed over countless years.

"Clap!"

The dried corpse fell to the ground, and the debris was scattered all over the ground.

"Did you see it? Is it shocking? In an instant, life came to an end. Their lives and lifespans were all taken away."

“Do strange things have a lifespan?”

Shi Si looked at Jiuri in confusion. The escape of living monsters was explainable, but what about the strange thing of running away?

"Keep watching."

The ninth captain said nothing, but just pointed toward the Pure Land.

In the huge fleeing group, a few tangible strange things fell behind and were submerged in the evil fog. Afterwards, a few people seemed to emerge from the fog? They were hazy and, judging by the fog, they might be some kind of humanoid thing.

They grabbed the tangible monsters, and the tangible monsters screamed in fear as if they had seen a ghost.

Then, when the tangible strange thing was completely submerged in the evil fog and no one could see it, a shrill scream came from the fog.

It was hard to imagine what had happened to make a tangible monster emit such a terrifying cry. Anyway, everything in the Pure Land that heard it was trembling with fear.

"People in our pioneer group generally call it a fog ghost. Because only the ghosts in legends are more suitable for things in the fog. Wait, three days will pass quickly.

Once the evil fog dissipates, it will not reappear in the following year. The annual evil fog is a feature of the wilderness."

After he finished speaking, Jiuri went to set up the tent.

On the other side, He Sheng was drooling at the sight of countless demons.

What a pity, what a pity that he had two people with him, otherwise he would have rushed up with a knife. If he chopped them all off, he might be able to collect more than half of the "cost" of Baichuan Chenghai.

"Ugh!"

He sighed, and then saw the demons and strange things that died in the evil fog.

"Ok?"

No, why is it so similar to my power of withering?

"No way"

Do you want to go out and try it?
If that doesn't work, then
Wait a minute, I seem to be immortal in the flesh.

Oh, that's okay.

So, without saying a word, he plunged into the evil fog.

“Ahhhhhh???”

Shi Si stared with his eyes wide open, pointed in the direction of He Sheng, and exclaimed "Ahhhh". He was so anxious that he couldn't even utter a word.

"What's wrong? Are you mute? No, fighting is strictly prohibited in the Pure Land, let alone such small tricks." Jiuri ran out of the tent and looked at Shi Si who was screaming [Ahhh], with a confused look on his face.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

"No, Master Shi, what exactly do you want to say? Aaaah, if I could understand it, it would be hell." Jiuri was also anxious, but the problem was that he really couldn't understand [aaah].

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Shi Si pointed his finger at the evil mist and jumped up in anxiety.

Then, Jiu Ri looked in the direction the arm was pointing.

"Oh shit!"

Because he saw a glimpse of He Sheng's back in the clothes he was wearing.

"No, you. me. him."

Jiuri was just as anxious as Shisi, unable to speak. It was all over. If he went back, his family would be killed. He was stabbed more than a dozen times in the back. It was considered suicide.

In the evil fog, the person only felt that the whole person was breathing freely, and all the cells in his body were happy. He subconsciously used the power of withering, and saw a large amount of fog flowing through the seven orifices and madly drilling into it.

However, one can clearly sense that the energy of the power of withering is increasing rapidly.

"Qizhen!"

To others, the evil fog was a deadly fog. To him, it was a rare treasure that belonged to him alone. He was just wondering where to kill some monsters and do some good deeds.

As a result, when he felt sleepy, he had a pillow and directly put the thing that could increase the power of withering on his face.

“Praise the wilderness, sing praises to the wilderness!”

As soon as the words fell, a humanoid fog ghost appeared from the fog and pounced fiercely. In response, the victim said, "Brother, you smell so good."

Compared to fog, the fog ghost seems more alluring, emitting an intoxicating scent from top to bottom.

Fragrant, so fragrant!
So, without saying a word, he hugged the other person.

At that moment, the fog ghost's movements were noticeably stiff.

"???"

Without waiting for the other party to make the next move, He Sheng opened his mouth and bit down. A large amount of rich withering power flowed into his body through his throat.

Then, the energy circulation belonging to the power of withering quickly absorbed it.

"Um?!"

He looked surprised. This time he took a sip, he inhaled much more than he had just inhaled the mist.

"what--"

With the second bite, most of the fog ghost's body was bitten off.

Not far away, a fog ghost was about to pounce, but its movements froze. Then, without hesitation, it turned and ran away. If he didn't run, he would be killed by someone soon.

"Brother, don't run. You smell so good!"
