Chapter 169 Simple and Brutal

Xie Tu no longer suppressed the restless spiritual entities in the spiritual realm.

The next moment.

A fire phoenix emerged from the void and soared into the sky.

The first thing it did after emerging wasn't to deal with the monsters, but to run around the Azure Phoenix incessantly...

The two phoenixes in the sky were so conspicuous.

One red and one green.

The phoenix's wings burned with fierce flames, radiating a scorching light. The blue luan's feathers, on the other hand, shimmered with a warm, emerald light, like a deep, still pool.

The two complement each other perfectly, creating a breathtaking scene.

Fire Phoenix greeted Azure Phoenix happily.

The fluorescent lights dancing in the air scattered and landed on it, making it unable to resist approaching again and again.

Qingluan stared coldly at Huofeng.

That expression made it seem like he wanted to slap it away a hundred thousand miles away.

The spirits gazed at the drifting spiritual threads, comfortably half-closing their eyes, instinctively wanting to chase after the fluorescent light.

The bluish-green fluorescence controlled the rioting mutants, but it could not break the illusion.

Xie Tu looked at the phoenix in the sky and had no choice but to order it to come back.

"Come down and get to work."

Fire Phoenix pretended not to hear.

Xie Tu said slowly and deliberately, "Don't you want to shrink?"

Upon hearing this, the fire phoenix reluctantly swooped down from the sky, carrying scorching flames as it rushed into the illusion, burning everything around it as if venting its anger.

Flames raged.

The illusions affecting the sentinels gradually distorted and deformed under the scorching heat of the fire phoenix, eventually disintegrating.

The thick fog that had been concealed by illusions was revealed.

—The twisted mutants howled in the flames, their faces becoming even more grotesque.

Black liquid kept dripping down.

The film of water on its body solidified under the scorching heat, and it quickly collapsed to the ground, ceasing all struggle.

The fire phoenix circled and danced above the shattered illusion, its cries carrying a hint of smugness, signaling to the blue luan: Look, look!

The blue phoenix looked down at it arrogantly.

[Intellectual disability.]

The two carts that Team Zero had left behind nearby were quickly found.

All the lost supplies are still here.

During this period.

Xie Tu has already revealed the attributes of the counter-clockwise gatekeeper.

The Zero Team members were excited when they heard this.

Once we eliminate this gatekeeper, we can leave.

Team Zero successfully merged the contaminated zone independently this time. With two gatekeepers, the reward points will definitely be doubled!

Tao Haohao shouted loudly, "Let's search them one by one, I don't believe we can't find them!"

Song Liang nodded and said quickly, "Now there are only twelve counter-clockwise scenes left. We have a general idea of ​​their locations. If we work hard, we should be able to finish in three days."

Their goal is clear.

The goal is to find a phone with the attribute of a gatekeeper.

With the addition of the six members of the Yanchi search team, ten people conducting a thorough search simultaneously should be able to turn over every scene in three days.

As for why there are ten people...

Song Liang immediately ruled out Yun Zhao and the captain.

It's clearly unrealistic to expect Yun Zhao to do the work right now.

And the team leader has to soothe the child!

Naturally, it's impossible to search for it personally.

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Xiao Yunzhao pouted, raised her little face, and said to Xie Tu, "I'm not going."

She was tired of riding the pirate ship and didn't want to ride in a car.

The thought of having to navigate through the gray fog made me impatient.

She's not going!

She wasn't in a hurry to go out; she wanted to find a place to play and wait for the gatekeeper to come to her.

Xiao Yunzhao could sense that it was very angry, and that anger was directed at her.

She killed its owner.

Xie Tu lowered his head and hummed in agreement.

She's acting like a child now; just a moment ago she was trying to kill the gatekeeper as quickly as possible.

Attitudes can change in an instant.

It seems like they're deliberately going against them.

Xie Tu changed the subject, coaxing her, "Let's not go in, let's just look around outside, it'll be over soon."

Before she could get angry.

Xie Tu turned his head and said calmly to the crowd, "No need to go in and search one by one, go and drive the car over first."

He seems to have other plans.

The members of Team Zero didn't ask any questions; they just followed the captain's instructions.

"yes!"

Their car and pirate ship were stuck in the thick fog.

The fire phoenix circled near the blue luan, and the thought of its true form shrinking made it work with extra enthusiasm.

It flapped its wings, dispelling the fog that obscured its view and guiding those below.

Several mutants, controlled by mental threads, simultaneously revealed themselves in the surrounding area.

It lay motionless on the ground like a frog, its skin a grayish-green color, as if covered with a layer of damp moss, its eyes bulging out like light bulbs, empty and dull.

Under the light of the fire phoenix, the shadows of the frogman mutants stretched and twisted into all sorts of bizarre shapes on the ground.

It's terrifying.

Wu Kui suppressed his nausea and followed Tao Haohao as they ran over and brought the two buses over.

The brown bear spirit in Tao Haohao's house is responsible for pulling the pirate ship.

Xiao Yunzhao was unhappy and kept resisting while clinging to Xie Tu's arms, "I don't want to go!"

Xie Tu coaxed the person into getting into the car.

Only by finding out the reason why she shrunk can we restore her to normal. At this time, we cannot let her cause trouble.

The Azure Phoenix hovered in mid-air, its eyes fixed on the annoying sentry.

They seemed to be considering whether or not to teach him a lesson.

An annoying creature flew around it, fawningly surrounding it and trying to distract the bluebird.

A moment later, the car started.

Two buses loaded with supplies hurriedly towed the brown bear from the pirate ship, slowly moving towards the nearest counter-clockwise scene.

Along the way, the dark matter became increasingly dense.

Xiao Yunzhao threw a tantrum and withdrew her mental barrier, causing countless thin black lines to spread throughout the car body.

Having grown accustomed to the support of the 'nanny,' the group quickly withdrew their spiritual bodies and ceased using their abilities to prevent their mental bodies from being corrupted.

Tao Haohao complained bitterly.

His brown bear is still outside, dragging dozens of boxes of princess dresses from the pirate ship, and there's no way to retrieve them.

Tao Haohao had no choice but to look to the captain for help.

Xie Tu grabbed her fidgeting little hand and said, "Drive faster."

Duan Xi, who was in charge of driving: "..." How fast?

The species ahead is either a mutant or dark matter.

This vehicle isn't their armored vehicle. If you're not careful, you could hit one or two mutants and the body could be corroded and riddled with holes in an instant.

They also had to keep an eye on the brown bear dragging the pirate ship.

I can't speed it up!

The group carefully navigated through the thick fog and arrived at the first counter-clockwise scene.

—Artificial Lake Community.

The place has changed drastically. In the darkness of night, the original neighborhood has vanished, replaced by a new and unfamiliar scene.

The surrounding streetlights were flashing.

Countless illusions are unfolding, creating chilling scenes reminiscent of a horror movie.

Xie Tu did not tell anyone to get out of the car. Instead, he instructed Tao Haohao to take out the explosives, throw in dozens of them, and then told Huo Feng to go in and do the work.

Fire Phoenix has realized that its true form wants it to try entering the reverse timeline, just like Yun Zhao.

Excited to shrink, it rushed inside and wreaked havoc.

The flames ignited all the flammable materials, and the last spark flew toward the explosives that had been thrown in.

--Bang!

The entire scene was instantly engulfed in flames.

The sentries of Team Zero, including those from the Salt Lake search team, had realized that the captain (Captain Xie) had no intention of letting them go in one by one to search.

He chose the simplest and most direct method.

The gatekeepers were no match for the fire phoenix's flames. Once the entire scene was destroyed, the gatekeepers inside would definitely not be able to escape.
