Chapter 997 Beheading
"What's that sound?" Gu Jin frowned.
An Mingji's expression froze, and he took Gu Jin into his arms, gently comforting her: "Don't be afraid, it's the sound of an animal."
Then, he ordered the others around him: "Keep moving forward."
Everyone quickened their pace and continued to move forward.
The thunder in the distance continued.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but as they went deeper into the Death Valley, the thunder and the strange wailing sounds around them became more and more intense.
As Gu Jin walked along, he used his spiritual power to explore the aura of his father.
A cold wind blew in the valley, and she actually caught a familiar scent.
She pointed to a hill not far away: "Over there!"
An Mingji heard a hint of surprise and joy in the affirmative tone.
He looked directly into Gu Jin's excited eyes and asked, "Where's Uncle Gu?"
"Yes, I can feel it."
Now that they had locked onto Gu Dehao's location, everyone changed direction.
Soon, Gu Jin and An Mingji arrived at the rocky hill where Gu Dehao had fought fiercely before.
There are countless corpses of wild animals here, and dozens of unwilling wild animals are lingering on the top of the mountain.
But Gu Dehao and his group are no longer here.
Gu Jin explored the rich and familiar atmosphere around him and was sure that his father had stayed here for a long time.
The faint smell of blood that rushed into her nose made her face look unsightly.
In the dwarf's memory, she saw the scene of her father being injured. She couldn't tell whether the smell of blood in the air was from Gu Dehao or someone else.
Thinking of the injuries on his body, my heart sank and became more and more uncertain.
The scene around me reminded me of the fierce battle that had taken place before.
The bullets and shells dropped on the ground and the dead bodies of wild animals not far away were enough to explain it all.
There were dozens of wild beasts on the top of the mountain. When they saw them coming, they let out angry and threatening growls, which made Gu Jin feel annoyed.
When she opened her eyes, a cold light flashed in them.
Without thinking, Gu Jin raised his hand and swung out countless powerful wind blades.
Dense wind blades attacked the beast on the top of the hill, making a whistling sound.
Countless wind blades fell on the wild beasts on the hilltop, killing them one by one.
Even when they died, they didn't even utter a single cry.
The beast fell to the ground instantly, and the strong smell of blood came with the cold wind in the dark night and rushed into everyone's nose.
An Mingji looked at the scene in front of him with a calm expression, and his men around him were already investigating the scene.
Even the corpses of wild animals in the mountains were not spared.
When they came down to report, An Mingji was holding a flashlight and checking the footprints on the ground.
When An Mingji heard his men say that many of the wild animals on the mountain died for no reason and not from injuries caused by weapons, he withdrew his gaze from the ground and looked up at the densely packed corpses of wild animals halfway up the mountain.
There was some doubt in his eyes.
Gu Jin walked over, her face looking very unhappy.
The bloodstains left on the ground all belonged to humans, indicating that many people in Gu Dehao's group were injured.
An Mingji looked solemn. "Ajin, Uncle Gu and his men must have run out of bullets. Look at the footprints on the ground. This is the most rigorous formation of close combat. The strange thing is that there are no signs of fighting."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jin took the flashlight from his hand and observed the footprints on the ground.
She saw that the footprints on the ground were dense and showed signs of retreat. As the surrounding area began to expand, they gradually became messy.
Following these footprints, they soon found the traces of Gu Dehao and his group's departure.
Gu Jin's frown relaxed a little: "Let's follow the footprints."
"Okay——" An Mingji obeyed her unconditionally.
