Yin Shisan said: "The vitality of the transformed souls is limited, and their bodies have almost reached their limit. Although they can continue to gain vitality through parasitism, they do not have the ability to actively parasitize."

Wen Qi paused and looked at Feng Ce, who raised his eyebrows slightly, revealing a look of interest.

Yin Shisan's voice continued on the phone, "I suspect they were created just to achieve a certain purpose. Once the purpose is achieved, there is no need for them to exist, and that purpose is to collect souls."

"Collecting souls?" Qing Yi asked in confusion, "You mean the souls of these people were not eaten?" At this point, Qing Yi also reacted, "It was Xu Ye, he needed a large number of souls for experiments."

"That's it." Yin Shisan said what he found. "When I was dealing with the cyborgs, I found teleportation arrays drawn on them, but before I could take a closer look, they turned into water. But I guess it's used to teleport souls."

After two seconds of silence, Yin Shisan's voice sounded again, "These are just my guesses, and they can't be taken as accurate. Just give it as a reference. I'm leaving now."

The phone call was hung up.

Wen Qi exclaimed: "This Yin Shisan is really good. His thinking is totally different from that of an ordinary Yin Messenger."

Feng Ce nodded and said with satisfaction: "After a few more decades of training, you can move up a level."

Before Liu Ran called, Wen Qi and Feng Ce were also discussing this issue, and their conclusions were almost the same as Yin Shisan's, except for a little more.

——Both of them felt that Xuye must also be hiding in this barrier, and the most likely hiding place was the central area of ​​the barrier, which made it convenient for him to receive souls transmitted from all directions.

Therefore, they decided to change their route temporarily and not go to the village where Liu Ran and the other two were, but go directly to the central area. If they guessed correctly, when daybreak came, Xuye would escape from here with the large number of souls he had collected that night.

The question now is how to determine the location of the central area.

Feng Ce looked up and said, "Wait for me here, don't run around."

Wen Qi sat down against the tree and waved his hand, saying, "Go ahead, I just need to take a break."

Feng Ce leaped to the top of the tree. The vortex in his eyes spread, covering his entire eye, leaving only the golden pupil the size of a grain of rice in the middle.

Gazing into the distance, the edge of the barrier was clearly visible to him. The range was larger than he had expected. The location they were in was just the periphery of the entire barrier.

It seems that all life in the entire forest has been targeted by Xuye. Not only humans, but animals are likely to be no exception.

A few minutes later, Feng Ce landed and looked towards Wen Qi, but he was gone! His heart skipped a beat and he shouted, "Wen Qi!" He ran over quickly and checked the surroundings quickly. Before he could find anything, a sound of breaking air suddenly came from the right.

As Feng Ce twisted his body to dodge, he also rushed out and headed straight for the direction of the attack. The vortex in his eyes that had just subsided began to spread rapidly again, and his pair of dark ghost eyes were stained with a captivating red murderous aura.

The people in the woods seemed to be frightened and stood there in a daze without moving.

Feng Ce grabbed the man's neck with one hand and instantly pressed him against the tree trunk. He was about to ask a question but suddenly froze, "...Wen Qi?"

The person who just attacked him was actually Wen Qi.

Wen Qi's eyes were a little red.

Feng Ce suddenly loosened his hand as if he was burned, "Did I hurt you?"

Wen Qi threw herself into his arms, hugged him tightly, and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I just wanted to play a joke on you, I didn't expect..."

She didn't expect Feng Ce's reaction to be so big, and she didn't expect that he would risk being backlashed by the rules of the world and take action against the people in the dark. For a moment, she didn't know how to react.

The ghost in Feng Ce's eyes slowly receded, and then he bent over slightly and hugged her as if to release his strength, and whispered: "I'm glad you're okay."

Wen Qi felt even more guilty, "I'm sorry, I will never joke with you like this again."

Feng Ce hummed, then straightened up after a while and said, "I found where the central area is. We don't have much time, so let's go there now."

Wen Qi responded obediently and carefully looked at Feng Ce's face.

Feng Xiao laughed and raised his hand to pinch her cheek, "It's really okay." After a pause, he still told the truth, "Don't do this next time, I will really be scared."

Wen Qi quickly raised his finger and said seriously: "I swear, there won't be a next time!"

Feng Ce held her sworn hand and said with a smile: "Let's go, it's really too late."

Wen Qi also relaxed, "Is it far from here?"

Feng Ce nodded, "I'll take you away." As he said that, he picked up Wen Qi and rushed out.

Wen Qi once again felt what it meant to "fly too low."

The president of the association was also helpless. Southern Xinjiang has always been a vast land with few people. Because there are many people who are good at raising Gu, they usually have very leisurely work. They didn't expect that this incident would be a big deal! Feng Ce ran with Wen Qi for more than half an hour before stopping. He put the person down without blushing or panting, and whispered: "We have entered the central area, be careful."

Wen Qi nodded seriously, and the next second, his soul power instantly spread out.

Feng Ce was slightly stunned before he realized her intention.

Xu Ye is hiding here, so he must not be unprepared. He will most likely use a formation to isolate himself from the outside world and protect himself. At this time, using soul power to conduct large-scale exploration will produce unexpected results.

It's like opening a map on your phone, and suddenly there's an area that fails to load, and all that's shown is a blank. It's hard not to notice it.

However, Wen Qi was still a little anxious. If he went to the true center of the barrier and then explored, the efficiency would be maximized. Who knew where Xuye would hide? What if he was on the other side opposite to him? Wen Qi's move actually alerted the enemy.

Of course, if you control it well, alerting the enemy can also turn it into luring it out of its hole.

Feng Ce couldn't help but start thinking about how to deal with various situations.

But fortunately, Wen Qi has always had good luck.

In just one minute, a hint of joy flashed in Wen Qi's eyes, "Found it!" She ran out before she finished speaking.

Feng Ce followed closely behind her, "Don't run so fast, be careful of the Mantis Man."

As soon as he finished speaking, rustling sounds were heard all around.

Wen Qi sneered, "There are quite a lot of people coming."

The next second, more than a dozen mantis people rushed out from the woods, waving their sickle-like capturing feet and pounced on Wen Qi and Feng Ce.

It would be much easier to deal with these modified humans without having to specifically dig out the modified souls in their chests.

Wen Qi chanted a spell quickly and changed her hand gestures repeatedly. In just a few seconds, she pressed the ground with one hand, and countless tree roots broke out of the ground, instantly tying up the mantis man like a dumpling.

Feng Ce clapped behind her, "Thank you, Madam, for your protection."

Wen Qi glanced at him and said, "Hurry up and leave."

The two continued on their way, and Feng Ce said casually, "This is the first time I see you use the wood spell. I thought you only knew how to use the thunder spell."

"How is that possible?" Wen Qi said as he locked onto Xuye's position, "I just think that the Thunder Curse is the best, but in this environment, using the Thunder Curse is too risky. If it causes a forest fire, it will be the end of us."

Feng Ce's calm voice carried a hint of inquiry, "How long had you lived before you took over Wen Qi's body?"

Wen Qi couldn't help but glance at him with a smile, "Why? Are you afraid that I'm an old monster?"

Feng Ce also laughed, "Can anyone be as old as me?"

Wen Qi smiled even more and shook his head repeatedly, saying, "No, no, I can't compare. Let me think about it. I was less than 30 years old when I died in my last life."

Hearing this, Feng Ce was really surprised, "So young? Then you really are extremely talented."

Wen Qi shook her head, "It's not that exaggerated. Most of the spells I learned were after I died." These were the rewards for completing the game given by the escape game system and the abilities she exchanged with her own game points.

Feng Ce wanted to ask more, but Wen Qi stopped abruptly, "It's right here!" She looked down, "It's underground!"

Feng Ce closed his mouth with some regret, "As for digging, it's time for me, the strongest assistant, to take action."

Wen Qi couldn't help laughing, and said as he stepped back, "Can you give me the feeling of facing a strong enemy?"

Feng Ce raised his eyebrows, "There's no need to think so highly of him."

Wen Qi thought about the inhuman things Xuye had done, nodded in agreement, and said, "Indeed, he doesn't deserve the respect of his opponents. Alas, it's all because I have too high a quality. I'm used to it."

Feng Ce raised his hand slightly, and the ground shook immediately. He said with a smile: "Madam, you can learn to treat people differently from now on."

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground collapsed, revealing a dark pit.

Wen Qi and Feng Ce looked at each other and jumped down at the same time. (End of this chapter)
