Chapter 1142 After the Disaster



Preliminary disaster estimates came out quickly: only one or two out of ten villagers in the town survived the disaster.

Even those who are lucky enough to survive, how long they will live is still unknown.

This is the result after Wang Zheng's Xuan Guang Technique treatment.

In this battle, a large number of innocent civilians in Gushan Town died and were turned into blood crystals to become the energy source for the Heavenly Desire King, which is infuriating.

Moreover, looking at the current state of the town in ruins, the passage to Tianzhu Mountain is still there, but whether the town can be restored to its former state is unknown.

At the very least, those who have passed away cannot be brought back to life...

Looking at the devastated town, Wang Zheng knew he didn't have time to lament to her. Taking advantage of the time he still had, he first searched around the area and then carefully cleaned up the entire place.

After confirming that there was no trace of demonic energy left in the town, the disaster relief task was handed over to the more experienced soldiers in the military.

He then flew back to his temporary base with the three grandmasters on the ground.

Perhaps because the culprit had completely disappeared, the sources of pollution that had been like maggots clinging to the bones and had been hidden in the bodies of several grandmasters, which were difficult to be dissolved by the Xuan Guang, gradually lost their vitality.

At this moment, when illuminated by the mysterious light of the living beings, it turned into wisps of black mist and quickly dissipated into the air.

However, these three people are still unconscious and have not yet woken up because they have consumed too much spiritual energy and have been invaded by high-level demonic energy.

When Wang Zheng finally returned to the base, the dire state of the three of them shocked all the grandmasters.

Everyone here is a top expert in the country. They have come into contact with the Heavenly Demon before, and they know that in the current environment, the Heavenly Demon who can come to Blue Star cannot be that powerful.

For this reason, they were not too worried about the incident in Gushan Town.

Originally, it was thought that with the four grandmasters going together, the matter could be resolved no matter what, but unexpectedly, it ended in such a Pyrrhic victory.

It could even be said that if it weren't for Wang Zheng, any other grandmaster would have suffered a total annihilation.

Wang Zheng didn't reveal much information, and seeing that he remained silent, the others knew that something had probably changed, so they wisely refrained from asking further questions.

After briefly checking on the injuries of the four of them, he changed the subject.

Just as Wang Zheng was thanking the masters for their enthusiasm and saying that everyone would be fine with him there, Meng Lie, who was already lying in the medical room, slowly woke up.

After bidding farewell to the masters, Wang Zheng hurried to the infirmary. After talking with Meng Lie, he learned about the situation after the two groups separated.

It turned out that after the two rescued the civilians at the market at the foot of the mountain, the fog seemed to come alive.

Subsequently, both grandmasters lost their way!

They originally intended to go to Lonely Mountain to meet up with Wang Zheng, but after flying for a while, they realized they had gone the wrong way.

They unexpectedly ended up at a distant military base. After rescuing some local soldiers who were trapped, they worried that the soldiers with lower awakening levels in the black fog would be affected. They were about to explore the exact range of the black fog and then take everyone out.

At that moment, they saw the mystical light emanating from the mountain peak.

Fearing something might happen to Wang Zheng, Yao Yongjun then went all out, planning to launch a large-scale attack in an attempt to dissolve all the black mist in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, they had barely made a move when they crossed the Demon Lord's bottom line. The next second, they were completely injured and even captured alive by the Desire Demon Lord who appeared out of nowhere next to them.

Then, he woke up already in the infirmary...

As Wang Zheng listened to Meng Lie's description, he mentally calculated the timeline.

When they lost their sense of direction, they calculated the time, and this change coincided perfectly with the appearance of the Lord of Desire. At that time, even the nearby magnetic field was indeed altered.

As for his later arrest, there was nothing that could be done about it.

The difference in strength is obvious, and one is operating in the open while the other is operating in the shadows. The other side is determined to launch a sneak attack, so there's nothing more to say.

Wang Zheng now understood that the black mist was essentially the opponent's energy source. With such large-scale destruction, it was no wonder that the Lord of Desire would seek trouble with them.

The only problem is that Wang Zheng only realized now that he was intimidated by the other party's background!

It's easy to imagine that Master Yao's elemental fire could pose such a great threat to the black mist, and it remained unchanged throughout, even prompting the demon to defeat them first.

Why was the black fog I faced back then so difficult to deal with?

Not to mention that even the more violent fire elemental Zhuyan has difficulty destroying it, the worst thing is that even the most effective spirit light that is most effective against the Heavenly Demon is mediocre!

Now it seems that it was all the work of the Desire King that day.

This guy created the illusion that he was invincible from the very beginning!

They started playing mind games from the very first meeting!

Perhaps if I hadn't stayed in one place and fought her head-on, but instead moved around, constantly depleting the amount of black mist in the distance, weakening her power, I could have taken her down in one fell swoop.

Would the outcome be different then?

However, this information can only be considered hypothetical now, and Wang Zheng is well aware of the situation.

That Demon Lord of Desire must have some ulterior motive towards me, so even if I knew about this tactic back then, that guy definitely wouldn't give me the chance.

After all, your own flight speed can't compare to someone else's teleportation speed.

Wang Zheng had some guesses about the Demon Lord's actions, but the content was too bold for him to believe.

As for why these grandmasters weren't killed, perhaps it was to show goodwill, or perhaps it was to create a few grandmaster demon generals.

After all, the demonic energy within them was so stubborn and deeply hidden; Wang Zheng certainly wouldn't believe there wasn't a deeper meaning behind it...
