Chapter 74 74. Camp

"We seem to have arrived?"

Passing through the dense forest, what comes into view is a thousand-meter-wide forest grassland. Two giant trees stand at either end. One has pale leaves and stems that block out the sun, and the other has scattered dark red fruits with crystal clear skin.

They are the tree of life and the tree of wisdom that exist together.

In the middle of the two giant trees, there are seven or eight yurt-shaped military green tents connected together.

“Swoosh—”

Just as the two men stepped out of the woods, two arrows with black fire rushed towards them and hit them just an inch in front of their feet.

"Order." A deep mechanical voice came from the lush tree of life.

Xia Feng vaguely saw a figure wearing a Siamese cat mask. He shook his head: "No."

"Um?"

As the people in the tree became confused, countless red laser dots appeared on and around the two people.

Xia Feng took out a photo and held it up in the air: "Someone asked us to give this photo to Big Face Cat."

"Photo? Throw it over here."

Wei Shutong had taken several identical photos, and this one was no different, so Xia Feng threw it away as he was told.

After a while, a cat-faced masked figure jumped up from the tree. She took off the mask and smiled kindly: "Classmate Xia Feng, I didn't expect to meet you here."

"Teacher Fu?" Xia Feng looked at Freya in surprise.

"Come with me." Freya waved her hand and turned around, her long burgundy hair dancing lightly.

The two looked at each other, seemed to understand something, and quickly followed.

Passing by tent after tent, rows of unconscious wounded were lying on stretchers outside, with the cat-face masks on their faces either broken or covered in blood.

Xia Feng recognized that these were the people from Pingshan Hospital and Wei Shutong.

Are the casualties so severe? Xia Feng frowned and said in a deep voice: "Teacher Fu, has Mushroom been rescued?"

"Don't worry, she's fine. She's just not used to the environment. She ate a few wisdom fruits but is still unconscious." Freya said softly.

Xia Feng nodded and his worries disappeared. After two rounds of inspection, the three of them came to the big tent in the center.

But before I got close, I heard a quarrel coming from inside.

"Wei Shutong is a lunatic! He acted on his own, my Lord, this kind of person is too uncontrollable. We must never work with him again! Fortunately, he acted under the identity of 'cat' and didn't expose the existence of our Holy Ministry, otherwise I would have killed him!"

"Master, we are only here to clear out the evil beasts in the Light Disaster Zone of the Evil Dragon Forest. There is no need to pay attention to Wei Shutong's unauthorized actions."

"What's more, Liszt has something on us. If we become his enemy now, we won't end well! Do you really want to die?"

"Captain Bailong!" Taoist Chen's unhappy voice suddenly rang out, "We are from the Holy Tribe, soldiers of the Empire! Do you know what bullshit you are talking about?"

"Haha~" the man who had been cursing in a rough voice sneered, "Chen Xingdao, if you really had the guts, you would have gone and knocked Liszt down long ago. Why are you pretending to be a soldier with a strong military spirit in front of me?!"

"Bai Long!" Following the low shout of an old man, the burly man fell silent.

"Li Sheng, continue reporting." The director said in a deep voice.

Everyone knew that although the Chief had stopped Bailong from speaking, it did not mean that he disagreed with him, and the Chief did not want to be an enemy of the Prince.

Li Sheng stepped forward and said:

"The people who rescued Li Hongdou were all subordinates secretly trained by Wei Shutong. They are now seriously injured and in a coma.

According to what one of them said before he fell unconscious, three numbered men came to the Shen'e Society, namely No. 4 Dead Hand, No. 7 Yixianqian, and No. 8 Zhuquejia.

Among them, No. 4 was at the fourth level, and No. 7 and 8 were at the third level combined. Furthermore, the Duke had five third-level guests under him, and Zhao Jie had been promoted to the fourth level last week.

The King has a total of seven third-level and two fourth-level masters."

“And we.”

Li Sheng looked around and saw that all seven captains were at level three, and only the director was at level four.

"Tsk~" Bai Long chuckled. "Lister is obviously fully prepared. A fourth-level player has already entered the inhuman realm. It's simply not something a third-level player can challenge. There's no way he can even fight."

The surroundings fell into silence. If the military could be mobilized, dealing with the prince would be easy.

Unfortunately, most of the noble officials in the 51st District Military Department who are not very powerful but can easily climb to high positions are the prince's men and cannot be used at all.

"Knock, knock, knock--" Freya saw that it was finally quiet inside, so she knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Freya led the two of them in, and everyone looked at them.

The first thing Xia Feng saw was the cat-face mask covering Xuanwu Bureau Chief's knees. It was a large mask with a big face of Garfield.

"Commander, Wei Shutong sent these two to bring you a message."

"Are you the subordinates of that son of a bitch Wei Shutong?" Bailong stood up immediately after hearing this and was about to curse.

"Hundred Dragons!" Xuanwu shouted sternly.

Bailong took a breath and sat down.

Xuanwu Bureau Chief looked at the two of them suspiciously: "Tell me, what does Wei Shutong want to do now?"

After confirming that Xuanwu Bureau Chief was the contact, Xia Feng didn't bother to talk nonsense. He threw a pile of photos on the table and said seriously, "Old Wei asked me to give these photos to you and said that it has been confirmed that your granddaughter is dead."

The old man was sitting calmly in the wheelchair, but as soon as he picked up a photo, his pupils suddenly contracted and he stood up abruptly!

The blanket and mask on his knees slipped off, and Xia Feng could see clearly that his legs were two steel prosthetic limbs emitting a silver glow, and they made a soft mechanical rotation sound as he stood up.

Xuanwu's wrinkled old face was tense, his eyelids trembling slightly as he stared at the photos scattered on the table.

The pale head of the little girl in the photo is floating in the nutrition capsule, with a red tentacle-like piece of flesh inserted behind her head, flowing all the way to the top of the nutrition capsule.

Crawling on top of the nutrient capsule was a red spider with eight eyes, its eyes flashing with a strange, dark light.

It is a kind of dream curse, the Soul-Eating Curse, which can construct a brand new spirit by devouring the memories in the human brain. Although this spirit is weak and does not last long, it has all the memories and personality of the original owner of the human brain.

Chief Xuanwu has already understood that all the granddaughters who had video calls with him in the past were dummies simulated by the Soul-Eating Evil.

Her granddaughter died a long time ago!

BANG!!!

The old man punched the long table, and the tables and chairs in the tent vibrated and hummed several times, and then cracked.

With a crisp sound, the heavy long wooden table shattered into countless pieces in an instant with a bang, and the air waves spread out.

"L-S-T!!"
