Chapter 101: Building a foundation? How many lives do you have to build a foundation?

Luocheng No. 1 Middle School, east side, pedestrian street.

As a pedestrian street backed by Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, it has a considerable flow of people on weekdays.

Because at this time every day, there will be many people, especially middle school students, coming here to eat.

Over time, this attracted more restaurants to open here.

These restaurants attract more students from other middle schools to dine here with their good quality and low prices.

This cycle repeats itself, forming a virtuous circle, making this place the first choice for workers and students to eat within a radius of one or two kilometers.

So when the strange blood cloud appeared in the sky, at least thousands of people gathered on the pedestrian street, who were eating or preparing to eat.

Some of these people are nearby residents, some work in nearby office buildings, and some are middle school students who come here to eat.

That’s right, when the blood cloud first appeared, not all students returned to school, and some students remained outside.

The trio of Chai Xi, Xu Jianliang and Zheng Liu were unlucky enough to appear here.

"Chai Xi, Jian Liang, look, something seems to have happened over there!"

Zheng Liu, who was sitting outside the store, waiting for Xu Jianliang and Chai Xi to help serve the fast food, suddenly saw a huge blood cloud in the distant sky.

After hearing her words, Xu Jianliang and Chai Xi, who had just walked out of the store, immediately noticed the abnormality.

Blood-red clouds covered the sky, turning the entire pedestrian street from bright sunshine into a sea of ​​red.

Without any hesitation, Chai Xi immediately dropped the fast food in his hand and shouted to Zheng Liu and Xu Jianliang.

"Let's go! Back to school!"

After hearing this, Zheng Liu and Xu Jianliang realized what was happening and suddenly ran towards No. 1 Middle School.

They were not the only ones who reacted, many people also saw this strange phenomenon in heaven and earth.

Almost instinctively, they all ran towards Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School.

Because in their subconscious, only Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, which is filled with monks, is the safest place nearby.

For a moment, the pedestrian street, which was originally relatively orderly, suddenly became chaotic.

At an alley next to the pedestrian street.

An old man dressed as a sanitation worker was so frightened when he saw a rotten rat as big as a calf suddenly jumped out from the alley beside him that he immediately dropped the broom in his hand and crawled towards the center of the pedestrian street.

But before he could take a few steps, the rotten rat suddenly pounced on him and knocked him to the ground.

Soon after, more rotten rats appeared from the surroundings and completely submerged the sanitation worker.

Soon, the sanitation worker was completely silent.

When the rats passed by, a horrifying skeleton appeared before everyone's eyes.

Similar situations also occurred in other places on the pedestrian street.

Countless rotten rats appeared from nowhere and occupied most of the pedestrian street.

【Rodent Demon Rat】

[Strength: Qi training stage 3]

【Features: omnivorous, sharp rodent teeth, appear in groups】

Driven by these rodent monsters, countless people began to flee frantically towards Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School.

As for those who run slowly, they naturally become food for the rodents.

And in just a few seconds, it was gnawed into a bone by the rodents.

It's like a hell on earth.

The entrance of a shop on the pedestrian street.

“Mom, Mom…”

A little girl squatted on the side of the road, crying and pushing her mother who was lying in a pool of blood.

This happened because her mother was accidentally pushed down by the crowd around her while holding her and running away.

His head accidentally hit the table next to him and he fainted on the spot.

The consequences of fainting at such a critical moment are self-evident.

Seeing that she couldn't seem to wake her mother up at all, the little girl hurriedly tried to ask other adults around for help.

But everyone was busy escaping at the moment and no one noticed her at all.

Or even if someone noticed it, they didn't dare to stop.

Because the group of rodent demons not far away were chasing them like death-chasing ghosts.

If we stop now, it would be tantamount to committing suicide!

Looking at the adults who kept passing by me, but no one was willing to stop and lend a helping hand.

The little girl's eyes were filled with fear and despair.

Because she had no idea why things had turned out like this.

She had finally gotten a perfect score in the exam today, so her mother specially brought her here to eat her favorite roast duck.

But before the roast duck was served, the adults suddenly started shouting.

Then everyone ran madly in one direction as if they were wound up.

It was at this time that her mother picked her up and joined the crowd of people fleeing.

It was just that she and her mother were unlucky and were knocked down by someone unexpectedly.

The little girl sat on the ground, pushing her mother's shoulders, crying and looking around, wondering if anyone would come to help them.

She waited for three full minutes.

Wait until there are fewer and fewer people around, and wait until the terrifying rodents in the distance are getting closer.

Looking at the terrifying red eyes of the rodents not far away.

And the black hair stained with blood.

The little girl was scared.

She pulled hard at the clothes on her mother's back, trying to pull her up from the ground and away from these horrible monsters.

However, her strength was too weak, and after pulling several times she could only barely pull up her mother's clothes a little.

There was no way she could get her unconscious mother away from this dangerous place.

As the rodents in the distance got closer and closer, the expression on the little girl's face became more and more terrified.

Ten meters, five meters, three meters...

When several rodent monsters rushed towards her, the little girl subconsciously lay on her mother's head, trying to protect her mother from being attacked by those monsters.

Although her thin shoulders were shaking with fear, she had thought of countless ways, but she had never thought of leaving her mother alone and running away.

"Zheng Liu, go carry them on your back. Jian Liang and I will hold these guys back!"

Just when the little girl was in despair, a loud shout rang in her ears.

She subconsciously raised her head and saw three middle school students in old-fashioned school uniforms coming to her side.

Then, a male student with a shaved head and holding a spear fearlessly rushed into the group of rodent demons.

The fine iron spear in his hand was powerful and heavy, and every time he swung it, it could kill and sweep away a large number of rodents on the spot.

Next to that male student, a male student holding a Taoist sword was pinching his fingers and casting a large number of wood-based spells to help the male physical practitioner.

The two of them worked together to stop a large number of rodents.

"Don't be afraid, come with me."

The little girl raised her head and what caught her eye was a slightly precocious older sister wearing light makeup.

Without waiting for her to say anything, the elder sister took out a talisman and stuck it on her mother's back.

The next second, the wound on the little girl's mother's forehead stopped bleeding, and her originally pale face became rosy, obviously much better.

After doing all this, Zheng Liu carried the unconscious mother of the little girl on his back, and then held the little girl in his arms.

"Hold on, you two. I'll take them to school first!"

At this time, Chai Xi, who had just shot a rodent to death, heard this and shouted without turning his head: "Go! Jianliang and I can't hold on for much longer!"

On the other side, Xu Jianliang did not say anything, but instead used all his energy to restrain the surrounding rodents and demon rats with the spiritual power of the tree.

This prevented them from besieging Chai Xi in a short period of time.

Looking at the two people who were barely holding on, Zheng Liu couldn't help but say before leaving: "Hey, you two must not die, we agreed to go to the Taoist temple together!"

Hearing this, Chai Xi took the time to look back at her and revealed a sunny smile.

It is rare to see such a smile on an old bastard like Chai Xi.

Xu Jianliang on the side said calmly: "Don't worry, Chai Xi and I are not going to die yet, you can leave now."

Zheng Liu wasn't sure whether the two were trying to comfort him or whether they really thought these rodents couldn't do anything to them.

But the current situation does not allow them to think too much.

Zheng Liu gritted his teeth and ran with all his strength towards Luocheng No. 1 Middle School, where the nursing school formation had already been activated in the distance.

"Hold on, I'll get someone to help you right away!"

Zheng Liu ran wildly, shouting in his heart, "Hold on, hold on!" At the same time, on the rooftop of an old building far away from the pedestrian street.

The three people wearing digital masks saw everything the three of them did.

"No. 11, why haven't we met such a companion before? If I had met him earlier, I might not have joined the Black Lotus Sect."

No. 11 looked at Chai Xi and Xu Jianliang who had taken the initiative to stay behind to buy time for their companions, and said calmly: "You may have met No. 12 before, but they are probably all dead."

"After all, good people... never live long."

Hearing this, No. 12 shrugged without comment, looking nonchalant.

But beneath that seemingly cynical appearance, his eyes became deep, as if he was recalling something.

Hearing what the two said, No. 6 on the side said: "Okay, don't forget what the altar master told us to do. We should also do our business."

"After all, our plan is already halfway done. The others should have already blended into the crowd. We can go directly into Luo City and work together with the deputy altar master to find a way to break the magic formation of that old man Meng Chuanping."

"As long as the protection of the magic circle is gone, with the methods of the deputy altar master and the guardian rat, I think they should be able to get the Holy Son out of the school quickly."

Hearing this, curious No. 12 couldn't help but ask, "What do you think the Son of God looks like?"

"After all, we still don't even know who the Holy Son is. Why are the deputy altar master and the guardian Zishu so sure that the Holy Son must be in No. 1 Middle School?"

No. 6 turned to look at him and said in a cold tone: "You will know what you should know, don't ask about things you shouldn't know, just do your own thing."

No. 12, who was frustrated, shrugged speechlessly.

Well, I've been rejected by someone I'm trying to please, so why not just ask?

"Go and deal with those two students. We need to ensure that the survivors gathered near No. 1 Middle School have enough pressure. We cannot let them drag along the rodent demon rats any further."

"Because this way we can force Meng Chuanping to open the magic circle and put the survivors around into the school."

"After all, these Immortal Alliance monks are different from us. We may not take mortals seriously, but they won't."

"And as long as you master mortals, you master their weaknesses."

"Alright, alright, leave these two to me. After all, I'm also curious whether they can maintain their disgusting friendship when facing death."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"When I think of this scene...I can't help but get excited."

As he spoke, No. 12 jumped down from the rooftop and flew towards Chai Xi and Xu Jianliang.

Flying in the air, he is undoubtedly in the foundation building stage! "Chai Xi, it's almost time, we should retreat!"

Looking at Zheng Liu who had disappeared in the pedestrian street, Xu Jianliang knew that they had bought enough time.

It's time to leave this dangerous place.

After all, he clearly saw more and more rodents running out from the buildings around the pedestrian street.

There are so many of them that it makes one's scalp tingle at the mere sight of them.

If they continue to fight here, they will be in real danger.

Chai Xi, who was fighting on the front line, naturally knew the actual situation very well.

So he used his gun to drive away the surrounding rodents and shouted, "Go!"

But before Chai Xi and Xu Jianliang could run a few steps, they stopped with grim looks on their faces.

Because on the pedestrian street leading to Los Angeles No. 1 Middle School, a strange man wearing a "number 12" mask was already standing in the middle of the road, blocking their way.

For some reason, the rodents around them seemed to not see Chai Xi and the others, and they all ran away from them and rushed towards Luocheng No. 1 Middle School in the distance.

"Where are you two going, little friends?"

On the pedestrian street, No. 12 held the chains in both hands and kept swinging them like a yo-yo.

Seeing this guy appear, Chai Xi immediately turned to look at Xu Jianliang next to him and said seriously: "Jianliang, I will find a way to hold him back, and then you find a chance to run quickly."

"You have the Concealment Orb. Although it may not be useful against evil cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it should be no problem for you to get to school safely."

"As long as you get to school, this evil cultivator won't be able to do anything to you."

Xu Jianliang said seriously: "What about you? What will you do?"

Hearing this, Chai Xi nonchalantly put the bloodstained fine iron spear on his shoulder and said in a very casual manner: "What else can I do? Of course, I have to let this guy know how powerful our No. 1 Middle School is!"

As he said that, Chai Xi took the initiative to walk towards No. 12.

As he walked, he waved to Xu Jianliang behind him.

"Don't worry, brother. See you at the Taoist temple next year."

Xu Jianliang looked at his back without saying a word, and silently took out the hidden gem.

The next second, his figure disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this, No. 12 was slightly surprised and said, "Wow, you actually have such a magical weapon, not bad."

Chai Xi looked at Xu Jianliang who had disappeared, and the heavy stone weighing on his heart was immediately relieved.

After all, he was an evil cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and he didn't have the confidence to hold him back for long.

but……

Bang!

Chai Xi raised the fine iron spear in his hand and pointed it at No. 12 in front of him.

An aura of fearlessness in the face of death emanated from him.

What about the foundation-building stage?

How about evil cultivators?

If they were really afraid of death, they would not choose to turn back and rescue others!

Afraid of death... why practice Taoism!

Seeing him like this, the mockery in No. 12's eyes became even stronger.

"Not bad, not bad, very impressive, but the more you act like this... the more I want to see you kneeling down and begging for mercy!"

No. 12 waved his hand violently, and a pitch-black chain flew towards him at high speed.

Bang! Chai Xi raised his gun to block, and instantly felt the huge force coming from the gun.

Then his figure flew backwards and crashed heavily into the shop next to him.

Feeling the blood and energy surging in his body, Chai Xi felt bitter inside.

Is this the foundation-building stage? Any random attack can take half of my life.

And this is when the other party is not serious.

I really can't understand how classmates Mu and Lu were able to defeat such opponents by crossing levels.

Although thinking so, Chai Xi still managed to get up from the ground.

"Oh, that's good, you can actually stand up."

No. 12 glanced at Chai Xi jokingly, then suddenly turned around and said, "Little guy, can you run or not? Do you really think I can't see you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the chain on No. 12's left hand suddenly flew out.

I saw a shop that was originally empty, but suddenly a large number of vines appeared.

But the moment these vines touched the black chains, they were easily broken.

“Hmm…”

With a muffled groan, Xu Jianliang, who was supposed to have left, was dragged out of the shop by chains controlled by No. 12.

When Chai Xi saw Xu Jianliang being caught by No. 12, his eyes instantly turned blood red.

"Let him go!"

Chai Xi roared angrily, then pounced on him fiercely.

But before he could get close, No. 12's black chain, which was as powerful as his arm, suddenly whipped him away again.

Looking at Chai Xi who fell to the ground in a mess again, spitting blood, No. 12 said in a sympathetic manner: "Oh, I'm touched. Your friendship really touches me."

"One who stayed behind to cover his companions' escape in order to give them a chance to escape."

"In order not to abandon his companions, he chose to stay and look for an opportunity to challenge the invincible enemy."

"I say, you two little brats in the Qi training stage, can you please show some basic respect to a strong person in the foundation building stage?"

No. 12 snorted coldly and instantly tightened the black chain tied to Xu Jianliang.

Snap...

Accompanied by a crisp sound of bones breaking, Xu Jianliang's face suddenly showed pain and his face turned extremely pale.

It can be seen how much damage No. 12 caused him by his exertion.

At this time, Chai Xi, who was lying in the ruins, wanted to help Xu Jianliang.

However, his body was no longer able to exert any strength, and he could only stare at No. 12 with wide eyes, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

But the more he did this, the happier No. 12 was.

It also made No. 12 more confident in his decision that year.

That's how it is. When facing a strong person, running away and begging for mercy are the only options.

Fight hard?

Why fight so hard! Maybe he was tired of playing, or maybe he knew he had more important things to do.

Number Twelve is ready to end this game once and for all.

"Okay, let's..."

Bang! Before No. 12 could finish his words, a sword energy suddenly attacked and directly cut off the chains that bound Xu Jianliang.

The sword's power remained undiminished, and it directly cut the shop next door, leaving a five-meter-long sword mark that spanned the entire store.

Looking at this scene, No. 12 was filled with fear.

Almost, the sword almost landed on his head! Then No. 12 turned his head in shock and looked in the direction of the sword energy.

I saw a young man holding a black sword appear at the entrance of the pedestrian street at some point.

He looked at them expressionlessly, and as he walked over, he said indifferently: "Foundation Building? I have killed so many Foundation Building warriors that I can't even count them on my hands."

No. 12 felt the sword intent emanating from Lu Chen, and his eyes became more solemn than ever before.

Danger, this student is very dangerous! At this moment, No. 12's brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to respond.

But before he could think too much, Lu Chen disappeared in front of him in an instant.

No. 12's pupils shrank, because when Lu Chen appeared again, he was already next to him!

At the same time, a cold voice sounded in No. 12's ears.

"So, as a foundation-building cultivator, how many lives do you have that are enough for me to kill?"

No. 12 turned around in surprise, only to see a cold light rushing towards him...
