Chapter 1091
The Guide and the Departing Demon Team
In this situation, the only thing to do is to exert force in one's hand and kill Rost before the blood-red arrow hits him.
So Li Xiao pinched the neck of the Senzhou team captain into a ball of minced meat.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of blood-red arrows pierced through his body.
In the end, only a head with wide-eyed stare was left, rolling twice on the ground.
When you see everything clearly.
While being held by Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan quickly said:
"It's not that we... Although Zheng Zha has vampire blood, he hasn't gained the ability to control blood..."
Li Xiao interrupted: "I know it wasn't Zheng Zha who did it."
The ability I just displayed wasn't about controlling blood.
Li Xiao didn't elaborate on this point, but instead frowned and looked at the ground:
"But the problem is that even though I had already killed Rost beforehand, I didn't receive any notification from the main god, nor did I get any reward points."
Zheng Zha looked down at his watch and shook his head as well: "I don't have one either!"
Li Xiao was puzzled for a moment, then suddenly remembered something.
He took out a white, VR-like eye mask from his spatial ring and put it on the head of the already dead Rost.
Seeing this, Zhan Lan couldn't help but ask curiously, "What is this?"
Li Xiao shook his head: "I don't know either. Chu Xuan gave it to me, but I don't know if this thing works on dead people."
After watching the electric light on the outside of the glasses complete its flash, it was put away again.
Li Xiao was actually lying. He not only knew what this thing was called, but he also knew its function.
A memory extractor, a device that can only be used in prisons in the future, as the name suggests, can extract memories stored in the human brain.
However, he wasn't sure if it would have any effect on a head that had just died but was still warm.
Zhan Lan nodded, then patted Zheng Zha's arm to signal her to let go. She then walked to the site of the explosion in Niagarabin, squatted down, and looked at the remains on the ground.
"An explosion of this density, leaving not even a single bone or piece of flesh, is simply an unbelievable ability."
"And in the end, it can compress blood and condense it into an arrow. If Zhang Jie weren't here right now, I would really have thought..."
As she murmured to herself, Zhan Lan pulled out a bell to Li Xiao's astonishment.
As the clear bell jingled, even though no sound was produced, white specks of light appeared in the air and flew towards the jingling bell.
These points of light were extremely scattered, but most of them were on the pile of minced meat on the ground.
Seeing Li Xiao's gaze, Zhan Lan shrugged, mimicking Li Xiao's words, and said, "I don't know what the purpose of the props Chu Xuan gave me is."
"But now it seems they've figured something out."
Hearing this, Li Xiao felt a little embarrassed and touched his nose.
Zhan Lan continued her analysis: "As for why the two of you didn't receive a reward, there are two possibilities."
"The first type is where, in team battles, you only get reward points and side quests for the first kill of the same horror movie."
"The second possibility is that they didn't die because of you, but were killed by someone or some other being."
“They made their move when Nijabin got to the crucial point, clearly because they didn’t want us to know what he was about to say.”
"As for the person who did this, they were able to succeed at this distance, right in front of both of you."
"There is only one person I can think of in this world."
Zhan Lan stood up and said meaningfully.
Li Xiao nodded knowingly.
Zheng Zha remained expressionless.
The three of them clearly knew something, but they didn't say anything.
As for Chen Zilong and Saito Hajime, they were left completely bewildered.
However, they were discussing something else.
At this moment, Chen Zilong looked at the two mangled pieces of flesh on the ground, no longer recognizable as human, and murmured:
"I had a perfect hand, but I ended up getting such a huge hand."
"It really wasn't easy!"
Hearing the sigh in Chen Zilong's words, Saito Hajime, Cheng Xiao, and even Zero at the very back nodded in agreement.
It has a full set of luxurious equipment, three resurrection items, and the ability to mass produce Zerg units.
In the end, it all turned out to be a case of death without a complete corpse.
Wow, these two are truly talented.
Or perhaps the two Chu Xuans were simply too powerful.
Zheng Zha looked around and then waved his hand.
Black flames appeared out of thin air, incinerating all the bits of flesh and blood of Rost and Nigaabin. Only after doing all this did they speak:
"What a pity, but it's time for all of this to come to an end!"
After saying this, Zheng Zha led the Demon Team and turned to leave.
Li Xiao and the rest of the Zhongzhou team shook their heads and headed back the way they came.
One minute after they left.
The swarm of insects that had been lying on the ground began to slowly stand up and gather towards Raccoon City, moving from near to far.
However, they didn't notice any of this because they no longer had the ability to scan mentally.
When the Demon Team and the Middle Continent Team returned to the dimensional barrier once again.
On the mechanical giant tortoise, Chu Xuan and Zhang Jie, along with the other characters from the story, had been waiting for a long time.
Sherry and Carlos were standing next to the two Chu Xuans.
Seeing this, Zhan Lan and Li Xiao from the Zhongzhou team both breathed a sigh of relief.
Because they were genuinely afraid that the two Chu Xuans might do something unbearable in this final stage.
at the same time.
The once unbreakable cage that had enveloped Raccoon City was now beginning to crumble.
As time passed, the entrance to the interdimensional portal began to disperse and disintegrate, eventually transforming into one after another eerie blue halo in the dim world.
Finally, the aperture gradually shrinks until it disappears.
The insect swarms also underwent changes.
As if sensing something, all the insect swarms within everyone's sight suddenly erupted into a frenzy.
One by one, they emitted eerie chirping and roaring sounds.
It was amidst such deafening noise.
The last interdimensional portal also disappeared from the sight of both teams.
With the last remaining obstacle gone, all that's left is to complete the task.
Those who noticed that something was wrong with the Zerg were not stupid.
The mechanical giant tortoise immediately began to move again.
And just as this mechanical giant tortoise was about to leave Raccoon City and was about to complete the main quest.
A soft "hum!" sound.
Then the unusual noise appeared.
A force that suppressed everyone appeared out of nowhere.
It enveloped the bodies of everyone present, freezing them in place and preventing them from moving.
The moment he realized it, Li Xiao prepared to enter the destruction once again.
But this time, before he could even activate the two powers within his body, he too was frozen in place.
Not only him, but Zhan Lan and Zheng Zha on the other side were also frozen in place due to the stagnation of energy in their bodies.
The dust swirling in the air, the leaves falling from the trees, and the endless swarms of insects in the distance all ceased their activity at that moment.
It's as if this force isn't actually targeting them, but rather the entire world.
They were just a byproduct. That's all.
Under the restriction of this special force, an extremely abrupt creaking sound rang out from behind everyone.
People in both groups knew without looking back that it was the sound of the church doors being pushed open.
The problem is that all the characters in the story, whether it's Alice, Shirley, the female reporter, the black police officer, or even the children, are around them.
Logically speaking, there should be no one left in the church.
The doubts that had been nagging at everyone were resolved in just one minute.
Footsteps sounded, approaching from afar.
A figure walked up to Sherry and Carlos.
Actually, Li Xiao knew who it was without even waiting for the figure to turn around.
Because this person probably didn't try to hide it, since they hadn't even changed their clothes.
It was exactly the same as when he died two days ago.
Xia Yan turned around.
His emotionless gaze swept over the members of the Demon Team before finally settling on Li Xiao and Zhao Yingkong.
The sound was extremely monotonous, yet it lacked the mechanical quality of Moss.
"The Central Continent Team Captain's assessment begins. Mission: Eliminate all Zerg."
After saying that, Xia Yan reached out and picked up Sherry and Carlos, and returned to the church the way they came.
The sound of the door closing rang out.
In that instant.
A pale golden light enveloped the entire church out of thin air and then rapidly expanded.
In that instant, all the reincarnators behind the mechanical giant tortoise were blasted away.
The power that had been binding everyone also disappeared.
When Cheng Xiao and his companions, who were still confused, finally stood still in the air, they realized that Alice and the other characters in the story seemed to have seen something and talked to it in the golden light, and then walked back into the church.
This is the end.
Beneath the Central Continent Team and the Demon Team, only the motionless giant tortoise and the church shrouded in light on its back remained.
Upon seeing this sudden change, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
But this silence did not last long.
Because the swarms of insects that received some kind of information finally reacted.
The mountains and fields, like a surging tide, crowded towards their direction.
The good news is that, thanks to Lisa's Spark Lens, the most troublesome flying bugs have just been eliminated.
Therefore, now that they have lost their binding distance, they are actually very safe in the air.
I saw the truly boundless sea of insects on the ground.
Amy, sitting on a magic carpet, covered her head and complained.
"I knew it, I knew it. As expected of a guide. I was able to rest, but if this continued, I would have died of overwork."
François, who was also sitting on the magic carpet next to him, looked completely bewildered.
"Wait, can someone tell me what happened?"
The burly man from the Demon Team also became wary as he looked at the members of the Central Continent Team.
Completely unaware of what had happened, Saito Hajime smiled wryly and said, "Don't look at us, we don't know either!"
"I even suspected it was a hallucination attack by the brain worm."
Chen Zilong scratched his cheek: "So what exactly happened? Can anyone explain it to me?"
"What kind of guide?"
"And what happened to Xia Yan just now? Wasn't she dead? How did she come back to life?"
Looking at these people, Zhan Lan couldn't help but rub her forehead and said bluntly, "You guys are as stupid as ever."
"It's obvious that the newcomer, Xia Yan, is a guide created by the main god."
"The leader of the Central Continent Team, after all, didn't the captain Zheng Zha die in the last horror movie?"
"Therefore, there will inevitably be a mentor among the newcomers this time."
"However, the problem is that both newcomers are dead. At the time, I thought I was overthinking it, or that the guide could really be killed to postpone the captain's selection."
"But now it seems that's not the case."
“Even if the guide is killed by the plot, he can be resurrected and still have some kind of privilege, like in the case just now.”
As Zhan Lan reveals the answer.
Most of the people on both teams suddenly realized what was going on.
Zhan Lan smiled and shook her head:
"Alright, I can tell from your expressions that Chu Xuan didn't tell you."
At this moment, apart from Li Xiao, who had already made the prediction, only Zhao Yingkong and the expressionless Zero could remain calm.
As for Saito and the others' faces, they were as colorful as a rainbow.
It took them a while to understand what was going on and what they were facing.
Zhu Wen: "I remember Zhan Lan, you, telling me about the Captain's test in The Matrix, so our mission now is..."
Thinking of Xia Yan's words, most people in both teams shuddered.
Then they all looked at Chu Xuan in their own team.
His face immediately fell into a grimace.
The reason we were able to hold on in the past was because of the time limit, but now unexpected events are happening one after another.
It even took an A-level side quest to eliminate just one branch of the Zerg.
Now, looking at the endless swarm of insects, François felt nauseous.
Only Zheng Zha remained calm throughout, as if with the death of Nijabin, he had lost all interest in anything else, including the dense swarm of insects.
Zhan Lan sighed.
He then gave a hesitant look, as if he wanted to say something.
But before he could speak, the devil Chu Xuan pushed up his glasses and spoke first:
"This kind of final mission is really boring. Let's head out then."
After the demon Chu Xuan finished speaking.
Behind Lisa, Peter Parker, standing on the Green Goblin skateboard, flew out of sight.
Then, the features of this person began to change, and soon another Carlos appeared in front of everyone.
At the same time, everyone on the Demons team's watches jolted.
Listen to the voice in your mind.
Amya, whose brain had gone blank, looked astonished.
François was so unsteady on his feet that he almost lost his footing.
Having already guessed what was going on, Zhan Lan smiled and said to Li Xiao and the others:
"It seems a bit rushed, but let's leave it at that. After all, it's not the final battle... So goodbye, everyone!"
Zheng Zha raised his eyes and swept them over the members of the Central Continent Team, a gesture that made his expression complicated.
The demon Chu Xuan stared at his other self, and neither of them said another word.
When all the Demons disappeared.
Carlos, having lost the Green Goblin skateboard, also fainted and began to fall from the sky.
Fortunately, Saito was close enough to catch the unconscious man.
It was only then that Chen Zilong came to his senses, his mouth agape. (End of Chapter)
