Chapter 322: Escape from Death
"Old Wen, how can you say such discouraging words at this time? You all have to hold on until the last moment!" Zhang Qi shouted, pulling everyone back from their depressed mood.
But he had just finished speaking.
The black energy around suddenly increased.
Originally, there were only nine of them supporting the barrier.
With the beautiful woman seriously injured and one less person, the energy has now increased dramatically, which is simply adding insult to injury.
"Is it really God's will to kill me?" Zhang Qi looked bitterly at the small black whirlwinds that kept coming towards him from the sky.
In fact, they had already found the ancestral land of the alien race many years ago.
However, the ancestors who left behind the passage to the alien ancestral land repeatedly warned that one should never set foot in this place without the guidance of a god-level strong man or a person with special abilities.
The consequence was that no remains were left.
However, the information revealed by Skynet this time made them unable to resist the temptation and take the risk.
They were too arrogant, thinking that a group of dozens of Saint-level warriors were not as good as a God-level warrior?
With this idea in mind, they came here, but in just half a month, they were made miserable by the ghosts here.
Now they are really out of ammunition and food.
Even though the big guys in this barrier have experienced many storms, when they saw their barrier cracking slowly, a trace of fear flashed across their faces.
——Fear from death threats.
“Beep…”
Under the constant erosion of the black whirlwind, the spider-web-like patterns on the transparent barrier continued to expand and crack.
"This barrier won't last more than three minutes." Someone whispered in despair.
"I wonder if those younger generations will come here to throw themselves down when they see that we haven't returned for a long time." Someone murmured.
They are now doomed to die, and they are afraid that their descendants, seeing that their elders have not returned for a long time, will come looking for them.
"Lisa, how do you feel?" Old Wen looked at the woman in white robe who was surrounded by the crowd.
Lisa is a quiet woman with black hair and black eyes. She is also a light-type mutant.
However, along the way, in order to save their lives, as a healer, he was even more exhausted than them.
Hearing Old Wen's words, the woman opened her eyes and raised a weak yet extremely gentle smile. "It's okay, I'm just sorry I couldn't cure you..."
"You've done your best. There's no need to blame yourself. It's us who got you into trouble. When we realized something was wrong, we should have sent you away immediately..."
"What are you talking about? As the team's healer, there's no way I'd abandon my teammates and go on my own. My teacher wouldn't allow a student like me to do that."
Lisa shook her head, disapproving.
"It's too late to say anything now. Is there any other way?"
An old man meditating in the center of the circle looked solemnly at the barrier that kept breaking apart.
"We do have a plan, but we no longer have the ability to implement it. Do you still have any recovery potions? Can you still use your combat skills? Even those of us maintaining the barrier won't be able to hold out for much longer."
Zhang Qi was more desperate than ever before.
"Bang!"
The sound of the barrier breaking was like a death warrant, constantly knocking on the door of everyone's heart.
"It's over."
Zhang Qi looked at the barrier that was about to break and felt desperate.
He didn't even dare to imagine the tragic scene when the black whirlwinds outside invaded his body after the barrier was broken.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, the pressure in the space increased dramatically.
"Bang!"
The barrier that several people had been struggling to maintain finally shattered.
As the strongest person at the scene, Lao Wen immediately reduced the size of the barrier and moved to Lisa's side in an instant.
“…”
"Grass!"
Zhang Qi cursed fiercely and pounced on the beautiful woman lying on the ground.
"You, you old rogue, what are you doing?" The beautiful woman was hugged tightly, and after being confused, she became angry.
"Liuli, we've been arguing for most of our lives and are about to die. Can you be a little gentler to me?"
Zhang Qi used up the last of his strength to erect a weak barrier, but the corner of his mouth still had the cynical smile that he had worn for half his life.
"You!" Liuli was stunned. "We're both going to die. You standing in front of me will only delay my death by a few seconds."
"No, before I died, I trained myself to make your armor. It should be enough to buy you a day. During this day, you must get out alive."
Zhang Qi spoke very quickly, and the energy in his body was already surging.
Liuli's pupils suddenly contracted after hearing this, "Get out of here! I don't need your armor!"
Zhang Qi just lowered his head and looked at her. At such a close distance, he could clearly see the panic and anxiety in the woman's eyes, as well as the sincerity hidden in her eyes.
"Stop!" Liuli summoned a tiny bit of strength and attacked forcefully...
"What are you seniors doing?"
Nan Chi had just set foot on the ground when he saw this group of old, weak and sick people.
I suddenly felt unwell.
In fact, she was still thinking about it when she stepped into the passage.
There must be a lot of masters in this group of land. If it is really dangerous here, I just need to find these masters and hold on to their thighs to leave safely.
Now this group of people...
Yes, you are an expert, right?
But, can I still be her thigh?
These uncles and aunts, are the legendary saint-level powerful ones, right?
How did you get yourself into such a mess?
Judging by the time, these people have only been in this alien ancestral land for about half a month.
Nan Chi's heart sank when he thought about how dangerous this place was.
“…”
The sudden sound interrupted Zhang Qi's self-sacrifice.
It makes a group of people who are closing their eyes and waiting to die feel as if they are hearing the sound of nature.
They turned their heads at the same time.
Then I saw a girl in white clothes bathed in white light.
What concerned them the most was that the girl, standing in the center of the black whirlwind storm, was invulnerable to all attacks, and those strange black energies actually bypassed her body on their own.
No, the black energy couldn't even get within one meter of her body.
"Who are you?" Zhang Qi was the first to recover from his shock.
Nan Chi looked carefully at the identification marks on these people, but she really didn't recognize any of them.
Glancing at the dense mutant energy around her, she waved her hand and several rays of white light flashed out.
In an instant, a white light flashed, and a new barrier enveloped everyone's heads.
Their pressure was immediately reduced and they escaped death.
Nan Chi lied with his eyes open, "...I came here by mistake."
"Okay, little girl, you don't even believe what you said. Tell me honestly, which interstellar family are you from?"
Zhang Qi was forcibly interrupted from practicing some overbearing martial arts by Liuli. After spitting out a few mouthfuls of blood, he didn't bother to heal his wounds and chased after Nan Chi to ask.
"Well... I'm a disciple of ancient studies." Nan Chi introduced himself very straightforwardly.
Anyway, these people will know my identity sooner or later, so it’s better to be open and honest.
"Ancient, ancient studies?" These old antiques all had strange expressions on their faces.
Zhang Qi turned around and asked Lao Wen, "Are there any old weirdos studying ancient things on our mission?"
Old Wen was stunned, "No!"
"Damn those old geeks of ancient learning, must they have known for a long time that this place is a huge pit, so none of them came!"
Zhang Qi reacted immediately and started cursing angrily.
If those old foxes in Guxue didn't know that there was something fishy about this damn place, how could they not have come and not even put in a show of effort?
Nan Chi spread his hands and said, "Seniors, please think carefully. When you set out, my master should have warned you, right?"
