Upon hearing Nan Yu's words, Lu Ning and the others frowned.
Lu Ning asked, "Can we contact Xu Hui and the others?"
"No, the signal has been completely cut off."
The signal was completely cut off, which meant that not only could they not contact the headquarters, but they could not even contact Xu Hui and others on the ground.
"That's troublesome." Eileen said slowly, "If we can't contact Xu Hui and the others, then we'll have to rely on ourselves here."
Li Fu, who was also fiddling with his phone, frowned and said, "We can't connect either."
This situation is terrible for them.
After a moment of silence, Nan Yu spoke up: "The tide of flesh and blood could surge in at any moment. Let's move first. The way out is blocked. We can only look for other exits now."
Eileen added, "Perhaps we could also look for what Li Bing mentioned earlier about what they were cultivating. Maybe destroying that thing could render these flesh and blood inactive."
Everyone nodded slightly.
That's one possibility.
Lin Menglan then looked at Lu Ning and said, "Captain Lu, from this position, would you like to try using the Crimson Sword again?"
Nan Yu and the others hesitated for a moment.
After all, it was because of the Crimson Sword that the originally peaceful flesh and blood turned into a tide of flesh and blood.
Even now, if they had to do it again, they would still feel a bit apprehensive.
However, after discussing it, Nan Yu and the others decided to try again.
After all, the Crimson Sword can absorb flesh and blood, which is undoubtedly a very useful ability in the current situation.
If they can absorb some of the flesh and blood this time, perhaps they can steadily expand from their current location to other places.
However, before that, both Li Fu and Nan Yu said that everyone should be prepared in order to avoid encountering the situation of flesh and blood activating and turning into a tide of flesh and blood again.
Too many people died or were injured before, due to the suddenness of the situation.
Without hesitation, Lu Ning plunged the Crimson Sword directly into the ground.
Pfft!
Blood gushed from the flesh, the scarlet sword piercing deep into it.
However, in the next moment, flesh and blood surged violently and rushed towards Lu Ning and the others.
The blood vessels felt like steel spikes piercing everyone.
The Crimson Tide has reappeared.
This time, with preparations made, Nan Yu, Eileen, and other powerful individuals immediately used their abilities to resist all blood vessels and flesh.
The flesh and blood surrounding the Crimson Sword detached from its body once again, but this time it still failed to absorb much power.
"Walk!"
The group once again began to flee from the tide of flesh and blood.
This time, it took them more than an hour to escape the tide of flesh and blood.
Just as everyone stopped, a whooshing sound rang out behind Lin Menglan.
Lin Menglan's expression changed slightly. She immediately conjured an earthen wall behind her and quickly dodged.
puff!
The hastily assembled earthen wall was not very sturdy and was instantly pierced by a blood-red spike. The spike continued its trajectory, heading straight for Lin Menglan's chest.
Despair crossed Lin Menglan's face; she could no longer hide.
Just then, the distorted gravity bound the crimson spikes, and the gravity collapsed, tearing the crimson spikes apart.
Nan Yu looked coldly toward the direction where the blood-red spikes were connected.
It was a member of the Mist Bureau's action team. His arm was twisted and bloody, turning into a blood-red tentacle, the end of which was a sharp spike.
At this moment, the members of the Fog Bureau's action team looked bewildered and shocked, as if they never expected their arms to turn into such a thing.
The members of the Mist Bureau standing nearby were also horrified and retreated in all directions.
"Kalin?! When did you arrive?!"
"The captain of one of the action teams exclaimed in disbelief, his expression one of deep anguish."
Kalin's teammates were equally incredulous, staring intently at him.
Kalin looked bewildered, her eyes filled with despair: "No...this isn't me! I don't know what happened?!"
However, the next moment, the flesh of Kalin's other hand also began to writhe violently.
Then the hand also became incredibly sharp, shooting towards the neck of another member of the Fog Bureau.
The Fog Bureau member wasn't very strong and was completely unable to dodge, so he could only watch helplessly as the spikes rapidly approached his neck.
However, Nan Yu did not stand idly by. He used his gravity ability again to crush the spiked arm as well.
After doing all this, Nan Yu didn't stop. He continued to use his gravity ability to crush Kalin's legs as well.
Kalin's body lay on the ground, blood everywhere.
The blood was absorbed the moment it came into contact with the flesh-and-blood carpet. Kalin collapsed to the ground, groaning repeatedly, his face deathly pale.
"I...I really don't know! Captain, help me!"
The team leader's face showed a look of pity, and he was about to speak when suddenly the flesh on Kalin's body swelled up. The flesh on his legs, which had been crushed, began to writhe and connect with the carpet of flesh.
Then his body was covered with flesh and blood, transforming into a hideous, blood-red monster.
Kalin's eyes flashed with fear: "No!"
However, the clarity in his eyes vanished the next moment, replaced by coldness and cruelty.
Kalin, now a mutated flesh monster, brandished his regenerated arm to attack, but the next moment, his head was enveloped by gravity and crushed.
Nan Yu glanced coldly at the fallen corpse, then his gaze swept over the others.
"All of you, stand still and don't move!"
The team members, who had been staring in disbelief at the monstrous corpse that Kalin had transformed into, were now stunned.
Li Fu asked in surprise, "Captain Nan, what do you mean?! You suspect that there are other infected people among us?"
Nan Yu calmly said, "It's not that there are still some, but that all of you are infected."
Upon hearing this, Li Fu and the others were astonished.
"What?!"
"That's impossible! Don't we know whether we ourselves are the diseased patients or not?"
"We are all awakened beings!"
"Yes, Captain Nan, are you sure you're not mistaken?!"
Nan Yu remained silent with a cold expression, only looking at Lu Ning.
Lu Ning calmly said, "You all have mental pollution in your bodies. When Kalin mutated just now, the mental pollution in his body suddenly increased several times."
Li Fu and the others' expressions changed drastically.
"How is that possible?! We have mental pollution within us, how could we not know it?!"
"Yes! If we really had mental pollution, how could we still be so clear-headed and rational?! Even if we weren't sick yet, we shouldn't be in this situation."
Even Karen found it hard to accept Lu Ning's words.
Lu Ning glanced at everyone, then looked at Ke Qing again, and found that the white mist inside her body was still thick, no different from the others.
He withdrew his gaze and said, "Perhaps your spirits are not corrupted, but your bodies are."
Upon hearing this, the previously noisy sounds immediately ceased.
It was as if the air itself had fallen into a deathly silence.
Lu Ning's words seemed to have turned on a switch.
