Chapter 258 Blood Rain
An Sheng no longer hesitated. While dodging the attack of the purple vines, he cut off another purple bell. But this time, An Sheng did not take it himself. Instead, he used the dagger to exert a little force and picked up the purple bell.
The purple bell flew straight towards Zhou Wen. Zhou Wen reached out to catch it, and the bell turned into a ball of purple air and penetrated his skin. There was no need to consume any energy to incubate it. It had already turned into a morning glory-like tattoo printed on Zhou Wen's body, which made Zhou Wen overjoyed.
It is difficult for Zhou Wen to hatch a normal epic companion egg, but this purple bell is very unique and does not need to be hatched at all, which means that Zhou Wen has obtained an epic companion pet.
Soon, Ansheng picked up another bell and Zhou Wen reached out to catch it again, and he obtained another epic companion pet.
An Sheng cut off the last bell and caught it himself, and he also got two purple bells.
All four purple bells were cut off, and the purple vine suddenly seemed to have lost its soul and solidified there.
A gust of wind blew, and the wisteria turned into dust and scattered. The beautiful wisteria was gone just like that.
Zhao Xin and others looked at Zhou Wen with strange eyes. An Sheng asked everyone to get back in the car and continue on their journey.
"Little brother, how do you know that those bells are afraid of physical attacks?" Jiu Ye asked while sitting in the car.
The others also looked at Zhou Wen. It was not easy to figure out the crux of the problem in such a short time.
"I was inspired by your story, Master Jiu," said Zhou Wen.
"My story?" Jiuye was a little surprised.
Zhou Wen continued, "Yes, that's your story. Didn't you say that those flying knives didn't hurt Jing Daoxian and the other two? I was thinking there must be a reason why they didn't hurt them. Although I haven't figured out the reason, I did think of the problem with these bells. They only fight back when we attack, and they don't have the intention to attack actively. And when they fight back, they use our strength. I wondered if there was a reason for that, just like those flying knives that didn't hurt people, so I thought, maybe they don't have the ability to attack people actively, so I asked Adjutant An to give it a try. I didn't expect it to succeed by chance."
"Young people have active minds. No wonder Adjutant An looks at you differently. I'm really old. Even if I thought of this, I wouldn't dare to actually do it." Jiu Ye exclaimed.
"It's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. You let Adjutant An take a risk based on just a guess. This time he guessed right. What if he guessed wrong, wouldn't that harm Adjutant An?" Zhao Xin said with a curled lip, obviously very disapproving of Zhou Wen's behavior.
Zhou Wen did not refute Zhao Xin and Jiu Ye, because what they said was not wrong. If it was just speculation, it would be very irresponsible for Zhou Wen to let An Sheng take such a risk.
However, Zhou Wen was not guessing, but saw it with his own eyes. He knew that Ansheng would be fine, so he let him go. However, there was no need for Zhou Wen to explain this to others.
On the way ahead, they encountered many problems again, but these people were all epic-level strongmen, each with their own unique skills, and they solved all the problems without Zhou Wen doing anything.
Zhou Wen was sitting in the car playing games. He had killed the tiger many times but failed to get the companion egg.
"When will I be able to carry a little tiger around to get companion eggs like Wang Lu?" Zhou Wen really wanted a lucky little tiger, but he couldn't get one.
Originally, it would take less than a day to drive from Luoyang to Zhuolu County, but now there are other-dimensional areas everywhere, they can't go in a straight line, and the highway is difficult to pass. They encountered some problems along the way, and it was not until the evening of the fourth day that they finally arrived in Zhuolu County.
There are not many ordinary people left in Zhulu County. Most humans have fled to larger cities. Only a small number of free hunters and some military agencies remain here.
An Sheng drove the car directly into a large courtyard that looked like a government agency, where there were many soldiers.
"Adjutant An." An officer immediately came up and saluted An Sheng.
"How's the situation here? Where's Madam?" An Sheng asked.
"Madam has already led people into the ancient battlefield." The officer said with a wry smile.
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you to calm the lady down first and let her wait two days before going in?" An Sheng's face changed immediately.
Although he is not the biological son of the An family, An Tianzuo and Ouyang Lan treat him like a family member, and An Sheng has long regarded them as family.
"We have done as you said, and Madam originally agreed. However, two days ago, something strange happened on the ancient battlefield. Madam couldn't wait any longer, so she took people in first." said the officer.
"What kind of change?" An Sheng's face became even uglier. If a change occurred, it meant that the place had become more dangerous.
"It was raining on the ancient battlefield, very heavily, and the color of the rain was red. Anyone who came into contact with the blood-like rain would become like someone with rabies, biting any living thing they saw. When the bloody rain first started, a few soldiers didn't pay attention and were drenched by the bloody rain. When we saw those soldiers, they were already biting each other to pieces." The officer seemed to think of what happened at that time and couldn't help but shuddering again.
"Master Wen, you stay at the base and wait. I'll go to the battlefield first." An Sheng said as he prepared to take people directly to the ancient battlefield.
"Asheng, take me with you. I will just watch from outside the battlefield and won't go in. I won't cause any trouble for you." Zhou Wen said.
"Okay, but you have to promise me that you will never go in." An Sheng knew that Zhou Wen's personality was too similar to that of the An family. Even if he didn't let Zhou Wen go, Zhou Wen would definitely go by himself. It would be better to take him with him so that he could keep an eye on him.
"If you say you don't want to go in, then don't go in. Don't worry, I know my ability is limited and I won't cause you any trouble." Zhou Wen was telling the truth. He had no intention of going in. It was not a place he could set foot in at the moment.
Ansheng asked someone to bring the latest information, and then gave a copy to each of Jiuye and the others, asking them to take a look at it on the way.
Zhou Wen also received a copy, and after getting in the car, he read it carefully.
The situation on the battlefield was indeed very bad. When the expedition team first arrived here, there were not so many strange things in the dimensional field over there, and there did not seem to be much danger inside. They only discovered some ancient relics, so they invited many experts to come here to do research, including the historical authority Ouyang Ting, the old principal.
But who knew that as time went by, more and more strange things happened in the ancient battlefield. More than a month ago, the old principal and a group of experts and their protectors were trapped inside and could not find anyone. Only one soldier in charge of guarding the equipment escaped.
The fifth update today will be a little late, probably around seven o'clock, so my friends, please take a rest first.
