Chapter 675 Modern Ghost World 9
They opened their mouths in pain and wanted to howl, but what came out of their mouths were black ice crystals.
After the ice crystals fell to the ground, they turned into crawling "frost babies".
Seeing this, Shen Que hurriedly introduced the two ghosts.
"Chained Corpses are mostly people who were dragged to death at the scene of a car accident. Their resentment has turned into chains that entangle them.
It has two ways of attacking: one is to spit out black ice crystals, and the other is to swing its chains, which can instantly crush close targets.
Their weak point is the larynx, and if it is shattered there, the entire body will fall apart.
The Frost Minion Infant is the spirit of a stillborn baby that was frozen into a minion by the Yin tide and specializes in devouring the yang energy of living souls.
When attacking, they will pounce on the target and then absorb heat at a very fast speed, freezing the person's blood into ice chips within three breaths.
If they appear in groups, they can also stack the 'Cold Prison' domain.
Its weakness is the umbilical cord. If the umbilical cord is completely separated from the body, the baby spirit will immediately turn into cold mist and dissipate.
Everyone, please note that these two types of ghosts rarely appear together. There must be something more difficult to deal with driving them later."
As soon as Shen Que finished speaking, Lin Xiao quickly gave the order: "Suzaku Group, change the formation!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately found their positions according to the formation and quickly adjusted their combat weapons.
Three of them held long swords, and the other three held "Soul-Calming Spears".
This pistol was specially made, with a vermilion fire rune engraved on the barrel, but they did not activate the rune. Instead, they pressed a button on the side of the gun handle.
In an instant, a high-pressure airflow spurted out of the Soul-Calming Spear, carrying with it fine salt crystals and clean sand, and flew towards the chained corpses and frost-crawling babies that were flying forward.
The salt grains exploded when they came into contact with the Yin energy, and the chest of the rotten corpse exploded with a series of "puff" sounds. The black blood was washed into gray-white dust, and the entire corpse instantly lost most of its combat power.
Then the Soul-Calming Spear's attack form changed, the sword flames and gun fire intertwined, and a waterfall of blazing white light exploded in the narrow crack.
Naturally, there were also ghosts coming to Chu Hongyou's side.
She held a peach wood sword in her hand, raised a thunder talisman, and shouted, "Shock!"
The thunder talisman flew out like an arrow and accurately stuck to the iron chain that bound the corpse.
In an instant, the electric current raged, and the corpse and the frost baby were torn into pieces of ice by the high-voltage lightning, splashing a crystal in this gloomy passage.
When the last chained corpse was completely eliminated, everyone adjusted on the spot and came to the center of the formation where they had set up before.
A circular stone platform was suspended in the center, with an ancient bronze mirror floating on the platform as the center of the formation. The mirror surface had been cracked into three petals, and the runes connecting the surrounding area and the bronze mirror had been broken into pieces.
Shen Que quickly contacted the headquarters through the equipment and projected the images here to the experts who were waiting at the headquarters to repair the formation.
The experts stared at the screen intently, carefully observing every detail of the formation.
Afterwards, they made precise calculations and passed on the instructions, and the people here completed the formation according to the instructions.
In this world, the recovery of spiritual energy has not been long, and the research on battle formations is still in the stage of learning and exploring, mainly based on ancient books left over from the past and the inheritance left by some heavenly masters.
But it is already able to cope with the impact of the current sudden changes in the world on the world.
Most of these formation masters do not have strong combat capabilities, so it is extremely risky to send them to the front line.
Therefore, except for the first time when the formation is set up, the formation master will come in person. All subsequent repair work will be done under remote guidance and coordinated by the personnel in the Suzaku group who are familiar with the formation.
Such an arrangement can avoid casualties to the greatest extent possible.
The bronze mirror was broken, so it had to be replaced with something else. This was a scenario that the headquarters had already envisioned.
This time, Captain Lin Xiao brought with him an ancient sword that had been treasured in a museum.
After handing the sword to Shen Que and the Suzaku team member code-named "Doctor" who was responsible for repairing the formation, Lin Xiao gave a decisive order.
"Everyone, be on guard. Don't let anything that comes out from behind interfere with the repair of the formation.
As long as the formation is repaired, our mission today will be perfectly concluded."
Upon hearing this, the team members immediately stood at the front of the formation, intending to defend the formation to the death and be ready to deal with any possible danger at any time.
Lin Xiao turned to Chu Hongyue and said, "Please ask Taoist Xuanweizi to lend us a hand. This is an urgent matter. The Suzaku Group will owe you a favor in the future.
If you need magical materials or spiritual items, I will do my best to help you obtain them within my capabilities."
Now is actually the worst result that was imagined before. The formation has been damaged too badly, so the time to repair it will naturally be relatively longer.
However, if they participate in this operation, they may encounter any situation, and the resources controlled by the country are indeed more than those of these folk Taoist temples.
This was also the original purpose for Chu Hongyou to agree to participate in this action, to leave a good impression on the officials so that he could ask for help if he needed anything in the future.
Chu Hongyue nodded.
"Don't worry, Captain Lin. Since I've agreed to participate in the operation, I have no intention of standing idly by. We are a team now. Captain Lin will give you instructions if you need anything."
If you want to agree to something, don't act superior, so as not to annoy others and make them dislike you for no reason.
Lin Xiao expressed his gratitude to Chu Hongyou, and Chu Hongyou also stayed outside the formation.
The reason why everyone is so alert is because everyone understands that the original Ghost King here should have been upgraded. It is really unreasonable for the Chained Corpse and Frost Minion to appear together.
There is a king in every acupoint. The simultaneous appearance of these two things means that there must be greater dangers ahead.
Everyone was nervous and remained highly alert.
Just when Shen Que and the doctor were repairing the formation, three more groups of ghosts came and tried to break through Chu Hongyue and the others' defense and destroy the formation.
These three waves of ghosts did not give everyone a chance to breathe. Before the first wave was completely eliminated, the second wave came.
The number is several times higher than before.
After eliminating all the ghosts and monsters, everyone was exhausted, and only half of the consumable equipment they brought was left.
The main reason is that everyone knows that there is a big guy behind them, and they are afraid that they don’t have enough mana to deal with it later. In the early stage, they try to use psychic weapons to take away the ghosts unexpectedly.
Try to retain those powerful weapons and your own mana.
Even Chu Hongyou mostly used talismans, which consumed the least amount of mana, but only consumed some physical strength in body movements.
Chen Que in the back was constantly communicating with the headquarters via video. She didn't dare to steal pills or absorb spirit stones secretly at this time.
If someone with sharp eyes discovered it, she would not be able to explain it clearly. It would be better for everyone to be the same and just be a little tired.
