This gave Duan Guanghong and his team a bad feeling on the road.

After a brief rest at the Yunshu Supermarket, they headed towards the Ping'an Clinic that Lin Yun mentioned.

But along the way.

But it was so smooth that it was a little strange.

Before that.

It's not as if they didn't encounter a monster while they were on the road; instead, they kept stopping and starting.

From time to time, I had to take a detour because of a monster blocking my way.

If there are monsters all around and it is impossible to get around, I will stop and hide to observe for a while.

If the monster's encirclement shrinks inadvertently.

Only when they are forced to do so will they try to launch a sneak attack on the monster.

Do everything possible to avoid fighting.

If you really have to fight, try to make as little noise as possible. It would be best if you can kill the enemy with one blow.

And now.

I didn't encounter a single monster for half a day.

Instead, it makes people feel even more disheartened.

Perhaps, a more terrifying crisis has arrived?

Thinking.

Duan Guanghong couldn't help but subconsciously become more alert.

I even began to wonder whether I should give up my goal of going to Ping An Clinic.

After all, if you are not careful enough.

The grass on his grave was already three feet high.

The next moment, Duan Guanghong suddenly stopped.

He immediately raised his hand to signal the four people and one hamster following behind him to stop.

A strong intuition arose spontaneously.

It was an extremely dangerous feeling of dancing on the edge of a knife.

Duan Guanghong believed in this sudden intuition and stopped immediately.

He turned to look at Liu Xinyue and said, "I have a strong sense of danger and dare not try to sense it rashly. Use your ability to try."

Duan Guanghong didn't dare to rashly sense what kind of dangers lay ahead.

After all, the first lesson of the spiritual class at Dawn Academy is to teach all those who are about to begin spiritual practice one thing: do not perceive randomly without authorization.

In a spiritual practice system based on spirituality.

Wisdom, mind, will, soul, understanding, perception, and the fruit of the Tao... These mysterious things are the foundation of spiritual practice, and they are also part of the definition of spirituality.

So he rashly used his own perception to spread out.

If you touch a high-level being, it will be easily noticed by it.

When the time comes.

It's not surprising that any danger would occur.

But Liu Xinyue’s ability is different. It is a very special perception ability.

It was so special that even the demigod-level beings in the organization could not realize that they were being sensed by Liu Xinyue.

As for Zhou Ziying's awakened ability of hearing.

Although it has good perception ability, it also has decent concealment.

However, there is still some lack of ability in getting to the bottom of things and seeing through the truth.

so.

Duan Guanghong asked Liu Xinyue to perceive it.

Although this kind of large-scale perception would make Liu Xinyue, who had not been on the path of cultivation for too long, quickly tired.

But it is better to be cautious at this moment.

Hearing this.

Liu Xinyue nodded.

Then he immediately activated his power to listen to the voices of all things.

The "sounds" of everything around me immediately flooded into my mind.

The earth's wail flooded into my mind.

That is the will of countless living beings after their death, which still remains on this land.

The sky, replaced by a black energy barrier, emitted waves of deep and dark aura.

The whole world.

Liu Xinyue's ability to listen to the sounds of all things has become completely different from before.

Many things are withering and wailing.

Fortunately, Liu Xinyue has already gotten used to this kind of world in the past few days.

She tried to put aside these distractions for the time being.

Listening hard to the so-called danger that Captain Duan Guanghong intuitively discovered.

But there was no result for a long time.

This made her hesitate for a moment, and then she immediately expanded the reception range of her ability.

A strong pressure surged into my heart.

It's like a huge mountain pressing down on me.

Slow down all your actions and thoughts at this moment.

This made her realize that she couldn't last long in this state.

But fortunately.

In this state.

She noticed something unusual a little further away.

The broken sign told her: where the anomaly existed was their destination - Ping An Clinic.

And inside that clinic.

She "saw" the sleeping monster and also "saw" a formation of eternal daylight.

The next moment.

She got out of this state.

I couldn't help but feel my legs going weak and I was about to fall to the ground.

Duan Guanghong on the side immediately stepped forward to support Liu Xinyue.

At this moment, Liu Xinyue's entire body was soaked with sweat, as if she had just been fished out of the pool.

Duan Guanghong did not speak in a hurry upon seeing this.

However, Liu Xinyue immediately gasped and said, "In Ping An Clinic, I saw..."

"A snake-haired male lion, probably with a second-level spiritual power level, is sleeping on the first floor!"

"There is also a special magic array that separates the second floor from the first floor, so I can't hear the specific situation on the second floor."

"But there is the aura of the Eternal Day members on this magic circle."

Say all this in one breath.

Liu Xinyue finally recovered a little and slowly crawled out of Duan Guanghong's arms.

Duan Guanghong frowned when he heard this.

A snake-haired lion starting at level 2? This thing is extremely terrifying.

Among the monsters of the same level, the Gorgon is considered to be an exceptionally powerful abyss monster.

When I was studying the monster encyclopedia at Dawn Academy.

The teacher had emphasized to them that monsters like the Gorgon were one of the two hundred monsters below the god level that must be treated with extreme caution.

The strength of this monster is definitely above average at any level.

Because the Gorgon not only has a strong body, but also has powerful poison and curse powers.

Fighting with this kind of monster is already difficult to resist its power, and you also have to pay attention to whether it gives you a negative buff.

A poison that causes continuous blood loss, a curse that petrifies you for a moment, a strange poison that corrupts your internal organs...

These are negative buffs that you might get unexpectedly when fighting this kind of monster.

If I hadn’t heard the second half of what Liu Xinyue said.

Duan Guanghong really must give up the idea of ​​going to Ping An Clinic and immediately take a detour with the people in his team.

only……

He heard the second half of Liu Xinyue's words.

He knew that there was a suspected member of Yongzhou staying there at the moment, and was using some kind of formation.

This made him hesitate.

Being able to cast a concealment formation on the face of the snake-haired lion without being discovered, he is definitely an official member of Yongzhao.

It is highly unlikely that a member of the Eternal Day would use a concealed formation to hide himself and wait for death under the watchful eyes of a snake-haired lion.

This is tantamount to choosing to die in comfort.

This is not a choice any member of Eternal Day would make!

Therefore, Duan Guanghong speculated that the member of Yongzhou on the second floor of Ping'an Clinic should be with a group of survivors, so he chose to hide.

It is even possible that he was exhausted and seriously injured like him along the way, and had to use a hidden formation to temporarily protect everyone.

So now.

Should he go and help? That concealment formation could never be maintained forever.

If the snake-haired lion was still here, the people on the second floor would probably be dead.

Duan Guanghong couldn't help but hesitate.

Apart from the bad guy who was electrocuted by Lin Miao with Hamster Meow, they didn't meet any other survivors along the way.

After all, their itinerary is erratic.

The few times we stopped to rest, we did not encounter any hiding survivors.

Now, the survivors are not far away.

There are monsters sleeping under the feet of the survivors, and they are in extreme danger now.

Regarding whether you need help.

He couldn't help but recall the scene when countless survivors died tragically in front of him when the second wave of offensive hit the day before yesterday.

Do I really have the ability to save people? And...

Thinking.

Duan Guanghong turned around and looked at Liu Xinyue, Zhou Ziying, Lin Yun and Lin Miao beside him.

He still has these four people to protect.

Do you have the energy to do something else?

This is an important issue.

Even if he wanted to save people, what should he do with the four people around him who needed protection? Fortunately, he didn't have to make a choice.

A loud noise in the distance startled him.

No regard for the scruples of spiritual perception.

He couldn't help but immediately spread his perception to see what was happening.

Just as Liu Xinyue had perceived, the snake-haired lion was standing in the ruins and roaring.

It looked like a safe clinic.

The two-story building has disappeared, and the formation maintained by the so-called Eternal Day members has also disappeared.

In the rubble of ruins.

Many people lay inside wailing.

Many people were injured to some extent due to the sudden collapse of the small building.

A few uninjured people tried to run away.

However, he only ran a few steps before he turned into a pool of pus out of thin air.

A doctor whose left hand was broken by the rubble raised his pistol firmly and pointed it at the snake-haired lion, his eyes full of fighting spirit.

Obviously.

The formation failure that Duan Guanghong was worried about did happen.

And it fails at this moment.

The moment the formation disappeared, the snake-haired lion noticed that there were many people above his head.

This makes it angry.

He immediately stood up and destroyed this place which was originally used as a temporary nest.

then.

It became like this now.

And at the moment when Duan Guanghong felt it spreading.

The snake-haired lion's roar suddenly stopped and he immediately shifted his gaze away from the gun-wielding doctor in front of him.

He looked straight towards Duan Guanghong in the distance.

It seemed as if the line of sight directly penetrated the distance and several buildings in between.

Duan Guanghong's hair stood on end when he saw this.

Without hesitation, he turned around and shouted, "Liu Xinyue, you are the captain from now on. Lead them and run as far as you can!"

In Duan Guanghong's tone.

With urgency and unwillingness to refuse.

Liu Xinyue, who was a little out of breath, didn't say much after hearing this, but just looked at him with complicated eyes.

Then he straightened his back firmly.

He turned around and walked away with everyone.

She understands.

At this moment, staying here would be of no use at all.

"Uncle Duan, I..."

Lin Miao wanted to say something.

She and Meowth, the hamster on her shoulder, could try to stay.

The strength of hamster Meow is quite good.

His combat effectiveness is definitely second only to Duan Guanghong in their team.

If you stay.

He would definitely be able to help Duan Guanghong, but Duan Guanghong guessed what Lin Miao was thinking.

He didn't look back.

He just said lightly: "Your father also needs a fighting force."

"I have a solution."

Speaking of.

He moved forward without hesitation, heading towards the snake-haired lion.

He does have a way.

But this method is a bit dangerous.

I want everyone to survive.

The point is not how much fighting power is left to try and defeat this serpent-haired lion.

In fact.

As soon as he sensed the monster, he knew there was no way he could defeat it.

This is the peak of the second level of spiritual power!

Even with all the buffs in his prime he couldn't win, so now with his severely injured body there was no chance for him to win.

There is only one way to keep everyone alive! That is to take the initiative to face it! Hold the initiative of the battle briefly in your hands, and then take the snake-haired lion as far away as possible.

If he ran as fast as he could, he wouldn't be caught up by the snake-haired lion for a while, so he should be able to buy some time that wasn't too long.

During this period.

All we have to do is run.

This was the only solution he could think of! Even though Duan Guanghong had hesitated before, he decisively went forward at this moment.

Even though he knew it was like dancing on the edge of a knife.

Even though he knew that there was a high probability that he would die.

Even though he knew that if he went forward he might never come back.

but……

The members of Yong Zhou came up at this time.

now.

He should atone for the loss of those he failed to protect! Now.

Dedicate yourself to your ideals! Thinking.

Duan Guanghong looked at the snake-haired lion that was also approaching him but still some distance away.

There was a look of determination on his face.

He stopped hastily.

"The holy fire is shining, the holy fire is shining, all my disciples, meow meow meow!"

"flame burning, flame shining, all my kitty, meow meow meow meow!"

Duan Guanghong recited at a very fast speed.

Reciting prayers of the religion that the organization had approved some time ago.

This can mobilize the power of faith.

In order to enhance his confidence and mobilize as much power as possible, Duan Guanghong recited the sutra with extreme piety and even had an English version.

The next moment.

A huge cat shadow appeared in front of him.

It was a cat phantom with flames burning all over its body! It was the phantom summoned by the Holy Fire Meow Meow Cult approved by Yongri as a channel to communicate with the faith zone.

It just waved its cat claws with great momentum and slapped out with endless flames.

The snake-haired lion did not shy away.

The cat's shadow was shattered instantly, and its speed was only slightly slowed down.

In its gaze.

There was a flash of anger.

Then he stared at Duan Guanghong and rushed over.

However, after using this move, Duan Guanghong did not stay where he was.

In fact, after stopping to summon the cat's phantom, he immediately ran away.

He knew very well that the cat shadow he summoned was not strong enough to hit the snake-haired lion, but he just wanted to attract the snake-haired lion's attention.

After all, he wanted to lead the snake-haired lion away.

What Duan Guanghong did was equivalent to giving a slap in the face first, accumulating some hatred points.

Otherwise, the snake-haired lion would stop chasing him and instead kill Liu Xinyue and her group, or those guys in the ruins of Ping'an Clinic.

In this way, by attacking and taunting first, the hatred will be temporarily locked on yourself.

But in fact.

This is indeed feasible.

The snake-haired lion chased after Duan Guanghong without hesitation, getting farther and farther away from Liu Xinyue and his group and the guys in the ruins of Ping'an Clinic.

that's all.

The two of them ran towards the distance with great momentum.

The distance between Duan Guanghong and the Gorgon was getting closer and closer, but Duan Guanghong had already used all his strength and filled up the buffs early on, which barely slowed down the progress bar that was about to be caught up.

Although he will still be caught up sooner or later.

However, the purpose of buying time has been achieved.

But at the moment Duan Guanghong had no time to care about anything else, and he couldn't even worry about how far everyone could run.

That's what he needs to worry about most at this moment.

It's him.
