Chapter 143 Return to Training Camp
A towering tree with its top invisible appeared beside Jiang He, but the brown bear's facial features were no longer on the tree. The branches bent down, brushed Jiang He's shoulders, and gently patted her head.
When the branches fell on Jiang He, Jiang He heard their low and rapid voices in his mind, "Don't come, don't come here."
Their voices kept repeating in her mind, non-stop. After hearing them so many times, Jiang He's head ached. It was as if ten thousand bees were buzzing in her head.
It was like a sonic attack, going straight to the brain. Most people's heads would probably explode from the noise. Jiang He didn't even frown. She stared at Zhiya expectantly. "Brother Xiong, are you still there?"
The repetitive sound disappeared.
It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Only the water of the Liuguang River was emitting a bright light, the light spots were gorgeous and magnificent, Jiang He slightly sideways glanced at the Liuguang River.
Her mental power spread out in all directions like countless tentacles, trying to bring everything here into the range of her mental power.
The "buzzing" sound rang out again, this time like the hook of a bee's tail, piercing her mind.
The pain made Jiang He's face pale. She shouted coldly, "You're hiding in the dark and sneaking around. What kind of person are you? Get out of here if you have the guts."
Her mental strength was enraged by the pain, and it bared its fangs and claws like ferocious tentacles with huge suction cups, plunging into the Flowing River and swallowing up the clear water flowing inside.
"Leave!" A loud roar roared out from the Liuguang River, like the unified roar of millions of people, overwhelming and destroying the world.
Jiang He's eyes went dark, and when she woke up, she was on Xiao Sen's back.
There were densely packed people around, with no expression on their faces, their eyes were white, their limbs were stiff, as if they had lost their souls, but their bodies were extremely agile. They would rather lose ten thousand of their own lives than injure the enemy a hundred times when attacking Xiao Sen and others.
In front of Jiang He, Lan Hu and Cai He had both transformed into beasts, but they were covered in wounds and were not in good condition.
Xiao Sen, who was carrying her, had a slightly bent back, and one of his legs was covered in blood, with the bone visible.
Jiang He's mental strength was damaged at the bank of Liuguang River, and his brain seemed to swell up like a balloon, painful and fragile.
But after opening her eyes and seeing the situation around her, her tentacles immediately appeared and roared towards the people in all directions.
The Iron-Eating Ant, Little Green, Huahua, and Bilu were all summoned by Jiang He.
Caihe's leopard form was ferocious and powerful. It was unclear whether it was the leopard or Caihe that was controlling the body at the moment. He turned his head to glance at Jiang He, bared his teeth and roared, then rushed towards the crowd again.
The two mutated giant beasts that were overwhelmed by the crowd suddenly turned the situation around because of the friends summoned by Jiang He, and now they have the strength to compete with each other.
Jiang He asked Xiao Sen, "Where did everyone else go?"
"They're under control." Xiao Sen glanced at Cai He and Lan Hu in the distance and said, "The two of them were able to hold on until now because they were fused with the inhibitor."
Judging from his tone, these two people will be controlled sooner or later.
Jiang He: "It warned me not to get close."
Xiao Sen smiled. How could such a warning stop her?
"It's afraid of me." Jiang He raised his head and looked towards the training camp with a determined look. "It seems that it's not so strong that it can do anything."
This thought made Jiang He even more determined to go to the abyss.
She and Xiao Sen jumped onto the blue tiger's back. Under the cover of the deformed beasts, the blue tiger's agile form rushed forward quickly.
In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the gate of the training camp.
The gate was closed and the top of the high black wall was invisible.
Jiang He smashed his hardened fist against the wall, but the wall didn't move at all.
Lan Hu and Cai He both regained their human form.
They looked along the high wall. "Is there such a high wall in the training camp? I've never seen it before."
The wall was neither long nor wide. They circled around it, but not only did they not find a breakthrough, they also had new doubts. How could they circle such a large training camp in such a short time?
After Jiang He rested for a while, she was about to use her mental power to detect the high wall when Xiao Sen held her arm.
He said, "I'll do it."
He pulled out a black sword from his back, and Jiang He keenly noticed that the sword was missing a part of the tip.
Before she could ask, Xiao Sen jumped up, and the sword light was like a flash of lightning in the darkness, so bright that people could not open their eyes. The sword light from the sky cut the high wall in front of him in half.
But no one heard the "crash" sound of the high wall collapsing.
The pitch-black high wall was cut open from top to bottom, like a mountain split by lightning, with a gap in the middle that was wide enough for a single person to pass through sideways.
Xiao Sen retracted the bone sword and said to everyone, "Hurry."
His voice was urgent, and everyone rushed towards the crack without hesitation.
As soon as Lan Hu stepped into the crack, he found that the high wall that seemed less than one meter thick at a moment ago now had no end in sight.
It was too narrow to transform into a faster beast form. Vines grew under Lan Hu's feet, and he used countless vines to propel his body, making his speed faster than if he had run sideways.
The colorful crane following closely behind him was a bird-like being thinner than the blue tiger and ran very fast.
Jiang He, on the other hand, felt numbness in both legs from time to time, as if his mechanical legs had suddenly lost their neurons and staggered intermittently, without any sense of balance.
She was about to use her tentacles when Xiao Sen grabbed her arm from behind and put her on his shoulders to ride.
Jiang He was so heavy, but he lifted him up easily, as if he was picking up a chick.
"How are your legs?" Jiang He subconsciously hugged his head. The condition of her legs was probably related to the fact that her legs were chopped off in the archive building. Xiao Sen had mentioned before that although her legs were not chopped off in reality, they would be affected.
"I'm better than you." Although Xiao Sen was also leaning sideways, he was moving calmly and quickly.
This is true. At that time, Jiang He's legs were broken, but he was only injured in the legs.
"The walls on both sides are closing in." Jiang He's eyes fixed, reminding everyone that although the closing speed is very slow, there is still no end in sight. If they can't run out before the closing, they will be trapped in the wall.
Lan Hu had the strongest body, and the closing wall made it easy for his body to get stuck when he inhaled.
He turned his head and suddenly grabbed the colorful crane following closely behind him and threw it forward. He was very strong and threw the colorful crane dozens of meters away, instantly creating a distance between him and the crowd.
Seeing this, Xiao Sen grabbed Jiang He's arm and threw her forward.
Caihe supported Jiang He before she fell.
He tried to imitate Xiao Sen and put Jiang He on his shoulders, but Jiang He grabbed his wrist and threw him forward, throwing him far away.
Xiao Sen was thrown by Lan Hu to Jiang He's side. He then put Jiang He on his shoulders again and continued to rush forward.
Jiang He turned around and called to Lan Hu, "Brother Hu, hurry up."
Lan Hu's physique was too imposing. Although he tried hard, as the crack became smaller and smaller, the distance between him and Jiang He became farther and farther.
Jiang He summoned one of its tentacles and grabbed Lan Hu's arm, pulling him up from the bottom.
Perhaps because of the sword energy, the crack at the top is slightly wider than the one at the bottom.
After being pulled to the top, Lan Hu seemed to have sensed the gap. Countless vines and roots grew out from under his feet, and he rushed forward as if he was walking on stilts.
The crack below was getting narrower and narrower, and even Xiao Sen couldn't turn sideways. Jiang He's tentacles all came out, one of which wrapped around Xiao Sen's arm. She used her tentacles to support the walls on both sides, climbed to the top like an octopus, and rushed forward.
Xiao Sen was suspended in mid-air by the tentacles. He looked up at Jiang He and said, "Don't go any further. There will be a strong wind."
The wall was so high that it was invisible. Jiang He thought he could continue climbing higher. Upon hearing that he should maintain the current height, he turned his head and reminded Lan Hu again.
Xiao Sen's expression suddenly turned unhappy. "My voice was so loud that he could hear it."
Jiang He laughed out loud. She felt that Captain Xiao's mind was sometimes smaller than a needle tip.
"Are we almost out?" she asked Xiao Sen. "I still can't see the end."
Xiao Sen, "It's still early."
He looked down at his watch. "Ten minutes left."
Jiang He noticed that he was talking about time, not distance. The thickness of the wall was actually calculated based on the flow of time.
Jiang He asked him, "If we calculate it by time, then we won't be able to cut another sword."
"Yes, strike again and the time will be reset."
Jiang He: "It made the training camp like an impenetrable fortress, yet it's afraid of us entering. This shows it's truly terrified of us."
Xiao Sen silently helped her correct herself in her heart. The other party was not afraid of them, but of her.
“Charge, charge, charge.” Lan Hu, who was standing behind him, roared, “I must kill that guy and avenge Yao Leng and the others.”
Yao Leng and others were "infected". In the eyes of Cai He and Lan Hu, they were no different from dead, but Jiang He knew that if she could succeed, they would not die.
Jiang He asked Xiao Sen, "Do you have to pass through here every time you come in?"
"No." Xiao Sen said, "This wall is not usually open."
The cracks narrowed again.
Lan Hu suddenly pounced forward from behind. His arms transformed into roots and wrapped around Jiang He's body. The roots stretched rapidly, pushing Jiang He forward.
Jiang He saw that Lan Hu's entire body was being transformed. In order to lengthen his rhizome, half of his body had transformed into dense vines. She yelled at him, "Let me go, let me go quickly, Brother Hu, keep going forward, it's almost there..."
Xiao Sen turned his head and glanced at Lan Hu.
Lan Hu's chest suddenly turned into a vine. His shoulders were pulled and he could no longer move forward. He could only continue to turn into a vine, trying to push Jiang He forward.
"Come on, beat that guy up for me." Lan Hu smiled at Jiang He, "I'm fine. I earned my life by living until now."
He is tall, and every time he grins, his teeth are so white that they are particularly dazzling.
At first, he didn't like Jiang He at all, he hated this woman.
But, he didn't know when, in his eyes, she turned into a shining sun.
"Don't do this." Jiang He begged him, "Try, try to use your mental power, try to control these vines."
Lan Hu was still smiling at her. The road ahead was endless, but her presence meant boundless hope. "Okay."
As the last syllable fell, his entire head transformed into a vine, which sent Jiang He away for a distance before stopping.
Like dry and lifeless vines, they were stuck in the cracks and turned into vine sculptures. Jiang He could not feel any spiritual power or breath belonging to Lan Hu on these vines. She raised her head slightly to force back the moisture, took a deep breath and continued to rush forward.
Shawson said to her, "One more minute."
One minute may seem short, but for them who are now stuck between two walls and unable to move or even breathe, it feels like ten thousand years.
After Xiao Sen finished speaking, he stopped talking. He could no longer speak.
Jiang He looked at the colorful crane behind him.
She was originally some distance behind Caihe, but with Lanhu's final push, she is now in the lead.
Caihe's face had been squeezed and deformed, and his nasal bones had been crushed long ago. He moved his lips, probably wanting to speak, but like Xiaosen, no sound came out.
Their sternums were crushed by the two walls coming together, and the dull "crackling" sound of bones was particularly loud in the small and silent space.
A minute later, the high wall disappeared, and the three people fell from the sky like broken rag dolls.
Jiang He looked down and found that there was a canyon below. The water in the canyon was pitch black, and bubbles could be vaguely seen bubbling in the water. There was a deformed bighead fish with a pair of big eyes exposed on the water surface, staring at them greedily.
Jiang He's tentacles grabbed Xiao Sen and Cai He, who were about to fall into the water before her.
Both of them were bigger than Jiang He and were completely crushed by the two walls, both of them were in a dying state.
When the deformed bighead fish jumped up and bit the two, Jiang He's tentacles threw them towards the canyon. Her other tentacle also quickly climbed up the canyon and stabilized her body just before she fell into the black water.
A deformed two-headed skull-tail fish jumped out of the water and bit Jiang He's leg.
A carnivorous plant suddenly appeared, and the vines on its head wrapped around Jiang He's body. Its mouth was wide open facing the water surface below, and all the deformed two-headed fish that jumped up were swallowed by it in one gulp.
Jiang He breathed a sigh of relief, and the tentacles slowly retracted. She climbed up the canyon with difficulty and lay down beside Xiao Sen and Cai He. She was so tired that she didn't even want to breathe, so she simply released Xiao Lu Lu and the others to help them keep watch.
After a short rest, except for the occasional numbness in my legs, all other injuries were almost healed.
Jiang He sat up and checked on Cai He and Xiao Sen.
Upon taking a look, he was surprised to find that Xiao Sen was awake and staring at the sky with his eyes open.
It was already night and pitch black all around, but these people were used to the darkness and viewed day and night as almost the same thing.
The training camp was covered by a skynet, and virtual twinkling stars appeared in the night sky.
Jiang He asked him, "After the high wall disappeared, I didn't see Brother Hu's vines. He..."
Xiao Sen turned his head and looked at her. "People without vitality will not be spit out by the high walls."
Jiang He felt a lump in his throat, his chest felt heavy and empty, and he felt uncomfortable.
"It's okay." She murmured, as if to comfort Xiao Sen, "It's okay, we will all be alive."
Xiao Sen did not respond. He looked at her quietly, his eyes gentle and doting, "Yeah."
Soon, Caihe also woke up. After his genes merged with Qian Baobao's, his healing speed was faster than before, but his collapsed sternum had not yet fully grown.
At this moment his face was furry and had many leopard spots.
"Jiang He." He called Jiang He by her name. "If you're looking for death, don't take me with you."
It was Qian Baobao's irritable voice.
Caihe doesn't like to talk, but Qian Baobao is a hot-tempered chatterbox. As long as she appears, Caihe never stops talking.
"I just want to live a good life, so what? Why do you have to make trouble? That blue tiger is dead, right? Everyone treats your words as an imperial decree. Everyone is dead, but you are still alive. Ha, why don't you just die yourself, you evil person? Just because you are good-looking, you are right, right..."
Xiao Sen couldn't stand her nagging and said to Jiang He, "Shut her up."
Jiang He checked Cai He's sternum and touched Qian Bao Bao's face. "Rest for a while. Talk to him after your sternum is healed."
Qian Baobao: ...The woman's soft and gentle hands made her face hot, which made her unable to continue to be cruel for a while.
Jiang He stood up and looked around. "We are in the factory area, and it's still some distance to the mining area."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the dark mass of moving figures in the distance and whispered, "They're coming."
The prisoners in the training camp, like those outside, all rolled their eyes and moved towards this side mechanically.
Xiao Sen stood up. Before Jiang He could pick up Qian Baobao, he lifted up Qian Baobao's belt and said to Jiang He, "Let's go!"
He was running in the opposite direction of the mining area. Jiang He did not question it. After all, Xiao Sen knew the route of the training camp better than her.
After the two of them ran wildly along the edge of the canyon for a long time, Xiao Sen carried Jiang He and turned left, rushing straight into the sea of people.
Jiang He saw a familiar face among the dense crowd of people.
