Chapter 45 The White Beast

It was a spirit with a round head, a snake-like body, a pair of slender horns on its head, and a layer of scales covering its entire body.

It was surrounded by a pale blue light, and a pair of huge wings grew from its back. The feathers on its wings should have been as white as snow, but the shimmering light at the edges was covered by layers of black mist.

The spirit recognized Song Liang, its scarlet eyes filled with doubt, and its long, thin tail swished back and forth.

It seemed unable to understand why the sentries from Dawnbase would be here.

"Holy crap! What are you doing here all alone?"

Song Liang's exclamation almost split his legs; he was even more confused than the dog, and his face showed extreme shock.

The high-ranking sentinel's keen senses allowed him to detect that no one was inside as soon as he entered.

A spiritual entity cannot stray too far from its physical body.

Song Liang immediately turned around and went inside to carefully check if there was a hidden door in the bank vault.

The bank vault was enormous, containing countless highly secure smaller vaults. He unleashed his senses and circled every corner twice, but still found nothing.

A strangely shaped spirit followed closely behind him.

I followed him everywhere, but I didn't understand what he was doing.

The spirit can communicate with the physical body and can also converse with its own kind, but it cannot communicate with other people.

But they can understand human language.

Song Liang then asked it, "Where is Captain Jiang?"

The white-haired beast wagged its tail.

How did you get here?

The white-haired beast continued wagging its tail.

Song Liang was speechless.

He noticed that the White Beast seemed to be acting strangely; he had never heard of a spirit beast being able to leave its physical body and act independently.

Something must have happened.

Song Liang released his spiritual form, a gigantic male lion.

"Try communicating with it and ask where its true form is."

Compared to the other team members.

Song Liang's combat strength is not weak; on the contrary, his spiritual body is very powerful.

Each time they carry out a mission, they need to collect information on the rules within the contaminated area and record the course of action for each mission.

After returning, it was handed over to the base's intelligence analysis team and stored in the mission archive as an analysis case.

He took on the logistics role because his three teammates were unreliable and simply couldn't handle such meticulous work.

The male lion approached, and the two spiritual entities communicated.

It says the main body is in another city.

Song Liang gasped: "Then how did it get here on its own?"

It said that if it didn't leave, the illusion would continue to attack the original body and invade its mental realm.

Song Liang: "???"

Like other S-class Sentinels, their mental state is also in a very worrying state.

If they accumulate too much dark matter, and their mental realm goes berserk, they will ultimately be transformed into monsters.

So the gatekeeper's purpose is a spiritual entity?

Jiang Mu noticed this and deliberately made the White Dawn Beast hide.

But the gatekeeper is all-powerful within the domain, and no disturbance can escape its notice.

Is hiding useful?

It said it was okay, and the gatekeeper couldn't do anything about it, so he could only let it wander around and end up here.

Song Liang: "..." I almost forgot, this is an S-level spiritual entity.

It also said that its original body released it to find other teammates, but it got so caught up in having fun that it forgot, only remembering when it saw you.

Song Liang: "...You can forget this?"

It says its mental connection is weakening; sometimes it's confused and can't remember things.

It's obvious.

A spiritual entity that leaves its original body will gradually be affected by the contaminated area over time.

Song Liang's expression was complicated. He said to the white beast, "Then you will come with me later. We will go find Captain Jiang and the others together."

The white-haired beast was still wagging its tail.

It said, "Okay, together."

The lion is merely a ruthless messenger.

Song Liang decided to stop hiding. He didn't know if the darkness would ever dissipate, and staying here was just a waste of time. Otherwise, when would he ever find the captain and the cloud guide?

He has corrosion-resistant armored vehicles by his side, and now he also has the formidable White Jade Beast.

With two spiritual entities leading the way, plus him, they could definitely try to break through.

To reach at least the next barrier, before the spiritual realm is severely eroded, find the Cloud Guide!

On the other side.

Xie Tu led his teammates, fighting their way through a city teeming with mutants.

Because of the guide's presence, everyone was free from the usual concerns during battles and could use their abilities with peace of mind. Even without Song Liang, their combat power still increased several times over.

Especially Xie Tu's Fire Phoenix.

It became extremely excited, constantly swooping into the monster horde, clearing out a large area of ​​mutants in front of it, and then happily waiting for the fluorescence to enter its body.

Even Duan Xi noticed something was wrong with it.

The ferocious fire phoenix, which used to be extremely irritable, now resembled a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

The mutants continued to pour in from all sides, and terrifying shadows filled the entire city.

The group remained silent as they struggled through the horde of monsters, the number of mutants around them showing no signs of decreasing.

It is open on all four sides.

The number of monsters killed was still far less than the number that surged up; all that could be heard were gunshots and monster howls.

Fortunately, a group of spirit beings stood in front of them.

Tao Haohao and Rabbit then had time to change the magazine.

The rabbit stayed close to Tao Haohao, responsible for sniping the level 4 and above mutants in the monster horde.

Those high-level mutants are not only extremely fast, but they also know how to strategize, hiding in groups of monsters and suddenly pouncing to ambush them.

The rabbit's spiritual form, King Chameleon, can observe its surroundings in 360 degrees, while simultaneously rotating and focusing its eyes to observe the outside world with extraordinary visual abilities.

She could easily distinguish the high-level monsters hidden among the monsters.

"We're here!" Xie Tu, who was walking at the front, said.

The station was right in front of us, and both outside the gate and inside the hall, there was a thick, dark aura.

Upon hearing this, everyone mustered all their strength to kill the monster that had pounced out.

"We'll have something to brag about once we get out. There are only five of us, hahaha, we actually fought our way from a horde of monsters to the station." Tao Haohao felt his blood boiling, it was incredibly exciting.

Xie Tu stood at the forefront, stepping into the station first, completely ignoring the smug Tao Haohao.

The guide in her arms was quiet; she could control the mutants, but she hesitated to make a move.

Let Team Zero fight their way through the monster horde.

Nobody knows what she's thinking.

Without asking any questions, Xie Tu decisively led the way into the station's waiting hall.

"Captain, there are only two magazines left." Rabbit took the opportunity to change her ammunition; she had very little ammunition left in her backpack.

She's now the only one in the team who still has ammunition left.

"Don't worry about anything, just keep lighting it."

Xie Tu's jaw tightened. "Let's press on and move directly to the next barrier to resupply ammunition at the weapons supply point."

Tao Haohao had already slung his weapon on his back and was holding a large knife in his hand. Together with his spiritual body, they stood at the back, blocking the mutants from getting closer.

Once inside, they were surrounded on all sides.

The four retreated back to back towards the barrier, relying entirely on Fire Phoenix's strength to hold back the overwhelming monsters.

The air was filled with a nauseating stench.

The stench made Tao Haohao hold his breath, and he subconsciously glanced in the direction of the barrier.

The location of the illusion barrier in the high-speed rail station has also been moved.

Near the ticket gate inside.

The scene reflected by the invisible barrier showed that on the other side, monsters were still surging, and the surrounding buildings were corroded to the same extent as on their side.

He muttered, "It seems like there are monsters all behind the barrier too?"

Yun Zhao finally spoke up, "It seems so."

Nestled in Xie Tu's arms, she pointed her finger at the barrier while the team members held back the surging mutants, sending countless cyan-green fluorescent lights hurtling towards it.

"So, leave the next city to me."
