Chapter 315
Of course Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi had not left yet. They just hid under the umbrella and listened to Chi Hao and the others talking.
"The messengers of God are really elusive!"
Before Chi Hao could finish his words, he was hit on the head by his sister.
"Be respectful to the messenger of God." Hongli scolded.
Chi Hao covered his sore spot and pouted unconvincedly, but once he met Hong Li's eyes, he swallowed back the rebuttal on the tip of his tongue and could only mutter quietly, "How am I disrespectful..."
"Hongli is right. We should be careful with what we say and do, and be careful of what we say." Xie Chaori also nodded.
After all, the organization they are now loyal to is a church that can easily create miracles, and they have to be careful when facing the church's top leaders even in private.
Even if you cannot admire and respect someone from the bottom of your heart, you must never speak ill of him behind his back.
"Oh..." Chi Hao responded, indicating that he understood.
Mu Sheng standing next to him was amazed.
Of course he knew Hongli and Xie Chaori, especially Hongli, who was a famous troublemaker in the team. Apart from Xie Chaori, almost no one could control her.
Who would have thought that she would be so submissive to those two mysterious men?
But then again…
"Why are you here?" Mu Sheng asked the same question as Chi Hao.
He remembered that Hongli was sent to garrison in a very far place. As for Xie Chaori... there were rumors that he was dead, and there were also rumors that he was sent by the Xie family to establish a new force and prepare to confront other families.
At this critical juncture, the appearance of two people near the fortress together is very subtle, and... how did they suddenly emerge from the stone house?
Hongli and Xie Chaori couldn't help but look at each other. They naturally came here by teleportation array.
God knows how surprised they were when they received the task to go to the deserted city home and use the teleportation function to Aoki Grocery Store!
This function has far exceeded their imagination.
They instantly thought of dozens of tactics that could be used in conjunction with the teleportation array, but it was obvious that the Shangshen Cult had no interest in starting a war.
Although it has been expanding outward, the Shangshen Cult seems to prefer barren lands, occupying them before developing them.
Moreover, the Shangshen Sect attaches great importance to life.
The mission they received this time was not to take advantage of the opportunity to occupy Qingmu Fort.
Instead, they were asked to rescue as many refugees as possible, and after properly settling them down, they were all developed into customers.
It really is worthy of being called the God of Commerce Sect. Nothing is more important than doing business!
Facing Mu Sheng's question, Hongli and Xie Chaori ignored it and said to Chi Hao, "Let's see how to arrange it next."
The two of them pulled Chi Hao together and began to make a plan.
Hongli was excitedly preparing to do a great job, and Xie Chaori... as long as he completed this task, he would receive a reward of 100,000 points!
We are one step closer to paying off the debt of our deserted home.
Seeing them start to recruit people to build a new branch, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi left temporarily.
Because the protective barrier of this mountain range is mainly supported by the main store, the aircraft cannot move for the time being. We need to wait until Chi Hao and others build the new branch and upgrade its level.
So, under the cover of the umbrella, they flew away from the mountains and headed towards Qingmu Castle.
Inside the fortress, large sections of streets had been destroyed.
Countless corpses were buried under the ruins - the people Chi Hao protected that day were only a part of them. There were many others who did not have time to escape and were buried here forever.
This once prosperous and wealthy human settlement turned into a living hell in just a few days.
Tang Yu'an's face turned pale and he felt his stomach churning. He forced himself to hold it in and not vomit.
He had never seen so many dead bodies, and the scene had a huge impact on him.
This is what the end of the world really looks like...
Zhou Qi held his hand, and Tang Yu'an couldn't help but turn his head, escaping from the tragic scene.
"Let's see what we can do." Zhou Qi patted the top of his head gently.
Tang Yu'an nodded.
They can only do their best now.
Zhou Qi turned his gaze to the giant shadow in the distance. Although he could not defeat the mutant giant tiger, it did not mean that other giant beasts could not do the same.
He could feel that the spiritual insect in his body was stirring again.
"Do you need my help?" Tang Yu'an asked.
"Need not."
Zhou Qi left the umbrella and rushed towards a giant wild boar in the distance.
In the area south of the fortress, in addition to the insects pouring out of the space cracks, there are also several ferocious beasts wandering around.
Because he had observed it in another dimension, Tang Yu'an knew——
The newly appeared space crack above the fortress has currently only attracted insects in the giant forest, and no large beasts have passed by.
In other words, the ferocious beasts that appeared in Qingmu Castle were actually transformed from mutants into beasts.
Zhou Qi started fighting with the wild boar.
Compared with the opponents encountered before, this wild boar could barely hold its own, but when Zhou Qi's eyes glowed red, it had no choice but to turn around and run away.
Seeing that there was no suspense in Zhou Qi's battle, Tang Yu'an withdrew his gaze.
He lowered his head and looked at the huge swarm of insects below. They were gnawing on the corpses in the ruins. The scene was bloody and terrifying.
Tang Yu'an took a quick look and quickly raised his head.
He thought for a moment, then took out a wooden barrel from his portable storage, which was filled with purple powder.
These powders are made by grinding the leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia.
The leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia can release a special fragrance, which can not only drive away evil spirits and diseases, but also repel strange insects. Tang's father and mother have already tested it and found that Melaleuca alternifolia also has a good effect on mutant species.
The insects in Qingmu Fort come from the Giant Forest, so they should also be afraid of Melaleuca alternifolia.
Tang Yu'an first applied some on himself, then put on a silver mask and took away the umbrella.
Now is a good time to spread the name of Shangshen Sect. If there are still survivors below, he can also win the trust of these people, and future work can be carried out better.
You should leave your name behind when you do good deeds.
Tang Yu'an sprinkled handfuls of purple thousand-layer powder from the air and controlled the wind so that the light powder could fill every corner.
Purple powder danced in the air, reflecting beautiful shimmers in the sunlight.
Wherever it passed, insects retreated.
In the ruins, in the triangular space formed by the collapsed walls, a teenager was huddled in the shadows holding a child of three or four years old, looking outside with fear on his face.
“Squeak—”
A giant bug was lying at the exit, staring at them.
Its long tentacles reached in, as if trying to drag them out.
The boy was terrified to the extreme, trembling all over and dodging deeper and deeper. The child he was holding was dying and had no strength to cry.
But at this moment, a faint strange fragrance drifted in.
The giant insect suddenly squeaked sharply, then turned and ran away as if it had encountered something terrifying.
However, it had not run far before the boy saw it fall to the ground with its limbs spread out. After a while, it lost its life.
The boy stared at the scene in a daze.
He noticed that there seemed to be some purple powder floating in.
After a while, the boy was sure that this was not a trap set by the giant insect. He put his brother down and carefully crawled out from under the broken wall.
Everything outside was covered with a purple veil.
He looked in the direction where the purple powder was floating, and saw a man wearing a black cloak and a silver mask floating in the air.
The purple powder came from the wooden barrel in his hand. The spilled powder swirled around him and was blown away by the wind to farther places.
Many of those terrifying giant insects died, and more fled the area in groups.
The young man stared at the scene in a daze.
Soon he noticed that another masked man, also wearing a cloak, was chasing a ferocious beast.
Yes, it was incredible that the ferocious beast, which was about ten meters tall, was being chased by a human who was so much smaller than it!
He didn't come to his senses until the mysterious man who was pouring the powder stopped and slowly landed in front of him.
The boy took two steps back and asked timidly, "Are you sent by the fortress to rescue us?"
The mysterious man wearing a silver mask shook his head slightly.
"I am Yin Guang from the Shangshen Sect."
The gentle and clear young voice sounded, greatly soothing the boy's anxiety and fear.
"What's your name?" Tang Yu'an asked.
"My name is Qingyou."
Qingyou cried and said, "Sir, please save my brother! Mom and Dad... they are both dead..."
Hearing this, Tang Yu'an couldn't help but feel sad.
He had noticed a green light spot under the broken wall a long time ago. He used his wind ability to move Qingyou's brother out from under the broken wall.
Qingyou quickly hugged his brother.
"May the God of Commerce bless you."
Tang Yu'an said softly, and a soft light appeared on his hand.
The light enveloped the poor brothers.
Qingyou only felt that he was wrapped in a warm feeling. This warmth took away all the pain in his body and made his mood gradually calm down.
When the light faded away, he found that his injuries were really healed!
The child he was holding tightly opened his eyes and whispered to him, "Brother, I'm hungry..."
It has been several days since the disaster occurred, and they have not eaten anything.
The child was well protected and didn't suffer many injuries. The main reason he was so weak was because he was hungry.
Tang Yu'an took out two boxes of milk.
This was prepared for him by Tang Xueyun. It has been warmed up and kept warm in her portable storage so that he can drink it at any time.
Seeing Qingyou feeding the milk to his younger brother first, Tang Yu'an smiled and took out two pieces of chocolate and handed them to him.
"Eat slowly, there's more."
The Qingyou brothers wolfed down the chocolate and milk. Before they finished, the survivors hiding in the ruins crawled out one after another.
After dealing with the ferocious beasts in the area, Zhou Qi returned to Tang Yu'an.
There were already five or six more spirit insects in his treasure bag.
"This is not a place to stay for long. If you want to survive, follow me."
Tang Yu'an gave chocolate and water to each survivor, and when almost all the green dots appeared on the map, he whispered these words into the ears of each survivor.
The climate in the Qingmu Fort area is not very cold. Now that so many people have died, the bodies will soon rot and stink. If we continue to stay here, we will easily get infected with malaria.
He and Zhou Qi took off into the air and flew out of the fortress.
Qingyou held his younger brother and followed them closely. With the brothers leading the way, the others quickly followed.
Just as they arrived outside the fortress and looked at the flying insects in the sky and the giant beasts in the distance, people couldn't help but stop.
The two mysterious men also stopped.
Just when everyone was puzzled, they saw something extending from under the mountains in the distance.
In the blink of an eye, it stretched out in front of them, and they finally saw clearly what it was—
Those turned out to be two short fences?
The fence extended from the foot of the mountain to the collapsed rampart, finally forming a long and narrow passage.
The fence looked so fragile, but neither the wild beasts nor the swarms of insects flying in the sky seemed able to destroy it.
"Go, at the end of the road is safety."
Qingyou looked at the silver light, then looked at the passage that appeared out of nowhere. Finally, he gritted his teeth, carried his brother on his back, and then mustered up the courage to step onto the passage.
He kept running forward, his fear of the swarms of insects and ferocious beasts making him unable to calm down.
However……
"Brother, the bugs can't fly in!"
Qingyou looked sideways and realized that those horrible bugs couldn't enter this passage at all!
He couldn't help but look back and look at the two mysterious figures from afar.
Do gods really exist in this world?
