In the center of the city below, a somewhat abrupt black thorn birdcage was hanging in the air above the square.

It's very obvious, like a gift being specially shown to someone.

Shangguan Yun'er's gaze fell on the figure in the cage. Recalling what Xiao Ming had described, she looked at it carefully.

Wings, bird claws, double pupils, that should be the child. The other party looks very weak and is not in good condition.

After observing the child's condition, Shangguan Yun'er then looked around the birdcage.

Then his eyes slowly stopped at the flower bed in the center of the square. There seemed to be a person lying there?

As Shangguan Yun'er looked around, her gaze fell on the woman.

The woman seemed to have noticed something and slowly turned her head to look at Shangguan Yun'er with a playful smile on her face.

The woman's reaction startled Shangguan Yun'er so much that she quickly looked away. This scene seemed familiar...

It was the same as when she observed the white spider, but this time the woman didn't seem to find her specific location.

Shangguan Yun'er, who was a little worried, jumped down from the tree and explained what she had seen to Zhang Chu and the others.

When they heard her describe the strange woman, everyone except Xiao Yuezhu and Zhang Chu fell into deep thought with strange expressions.

Zhang Chu and Xiao Yuezhu had met each other before. Although they had only seen each other from a distance, they had discussed it afterwards.

Combined with what the little boy and Xiao Yuezhu said before, it seemed that the thorns had absorbed the blood-coagulated flowers that grew from the corpses in Peicheng and had taken on human form.

Finally, the conclusion was drawn that the strange woman was most likely the incarnation of thorns.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuezhu couldn't help but fall silent. Combined with the child's message, she already understood the other party's thoughts.

Xiao Yuezhu looked at the girl in white dress outside the crowd with a somewhat melancholy look. She was looking quietly at the city ahead with a calm expression.

It seems that the child wants to eat the incarnation of thorns and then grow a human body like Mr. Bai.

But Lord Bai’s situation is complicated. Can this idea really be realized?

Little boy...you are so impulsive...

…………

As the soldiers unloaded the large box from the car, Gugu opened it with great interest. Inside were neatly stacked the small ball bombs she had been researching.

Taking the military into consideration, Gugu removed the voice-controlled detonation function and replaced it with a traditional button-delayed explosion.

These bombs have been improved and are now very stable. They are now only the size of eggs, making them more convenient to carry and use.

Looking at these small balls that shone with metallic light and had a very mechanical feel, Gugu excitedly distributed them to Xiao Yuezhu and the others.

The thorns are plentiful, and these little ball bombs will be helpful.

Of course, in addition to these things, Xiao Yuezhu and the others also brought those blue fruits. The little boy said that these fruits can detoxify thorns.

No wonder the little boy ate so much before, saying it was to recover from his injuries. Actually, he had been preparing for this for a long time, right?

Looking at the fruits distributed to several people, Xiao Yuezhu and Zhang Chu couldn't help but look a little gloomy.

But now is not the time to be sad. Everyone cheered up, made sufficient preparations, and looked towards the white figure in front of them.

The girl in the white dress was looking at the city ahead, quietly feeling its atmosphere.

On his calm face, his purple eyes were slightly lowered, as if he was thinking about something.

It was that floral scent again, but it didn't have much appeal to her at this moment.

Feeling the gazes of the people behind her, the girl in the white dress turned her head slightly, looked at the people who were ready, and opened her red lips slightly.

"Let's go."

…………

At this moment, in the center of the city, a strange woman with flowers growing behind her was sitting in a flower bed.

She thought thoughtfully about the probing gaze that was directed at her just now, then smiled and spoke to the black crow girl in the air.

"Haha~ Little crow, I told you~ You must be related to humans..."

The little boy looked at the woman who suddenly laughed below, narrowed his eyes in some confusion, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

"What do you mean……"

The Black Crow girl's unsmooth language made the woman raise her eyebrows slightly and speak in a teasing tone.

"Why are you like this? You can't even speak clearly~"

The woman's words silenced the child's expression, although she had also been practicing.

But on weekdays, only when Xiaozhu came to see her could they talk a lot.

So her progress in speaking has been slow...

The woman looked at the silent Black Crow girl, a smile on her face. Then, sensing several auras entering the city, she parted her alluring red lips and spoke slowly to the child.

"Someone is here to save the little crow~"

…………

On the city streets, three figures walked quietly on the street.

The group was led by the girl in white dress, followed by Xiao Yuezhu and Ye Qingning. With their close combat abilities, they would be more suitable for fighting these thorns.

Because Zhang Chu's combat power was greatly reduced, he could not help much in this situation, so he stayed behind with Gugu and the others.

As for Yang Yu and the other two, they were nowhere to be seen...

Worried about what might happen, Xiaobai left Beibei with Zhang Chu. This way, only Xiaobai and the other two would actually face the enemy.

However, Xiaobai didn't care about this. It was better to have fewer people around, as it would allow her to be more relaxed.

At this time, the city streets were littered with corpses, and blood that had turned completely black was splattered on the surrounding roads and walls.

The surrounding ground and walls were covered with dark holes, and a large amount of rubble was scattered on the ground, giving the scene a dilapidated and desolate state.

There was no longer any smell of blood in the air, only a stench of decay.

This city with mountains of corpses and seas of blood seems to have become a forbidden area. No living creature has dared to enter here for a long time.

Facing this scene again, Xiao Yuezhu seemed to be reminded of the past.

His face was pale, he lowered his head, pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were red, as if he felt a little guilty, and he didn't dare to look directly at the corpses.

The hand that was tightly gripping the long knife had white knuckles and was shaking continuously with the trembling of the body.

Ye Qingning, who was standing by, had prepared herself mentally beforehand, but when she actually stepped into this purgatory-like city, she was shocked.

A creepy feeling still arose in her heart. She looked at everything around her with a complicated expression, and the pupils in Ye Qingning's eyes kept trembling.

The foul smell in the air constantly assaulted the souls of the two men.

It seemed as if he was unwillingly announcing to them the tragedy that had happened here!

Or maybe it was the strong hatred that those dead souls expressed towards the girl in the black dress in front of them!
