What's more, in addition to his powerful five senses, Chenxi also has the knowledge of field tracking that I don't have, for example, now, he quickly discovered the traces of Tai Sui according to the traces on the ground.

Looking at the position pointed by Dawn, I saw a lot of obvious but frozen mucus on the ground, which was definitely not left by the Tai Sui who was nailed to the tree now, at least not what it had just left.

And there is a lot of this mucus, and there are a lot of dust, and it doesn't look like a Tai Sui can glide out at all.

Dawn said that judging by the degree of freezing of the slime, it was very likely that these marks had appeared last night, and that this time was most likely the same time when the Voodoo Cult launched a general attack.

It seems that I still underestimate the scale of the "inner response" of the voodoo religion, it turns out that not only do they have people to respond, but even Tai Sui has been dispatched.

I looked at the Tai Sui who had been nailed to the tree by the morning sun just now, and thought that keeping this thing was also a scourge, but it was just the right time to test its resistance to Gu Fire.

Chenxi now has a Gu musket at hand, which was given to him by the Qin Yao garrison who rushed from the No. 2 stronghold of Life, I picked up this Gu musket and aimed it at the center of Tai Sui, that is, the position where it hit the Chenxi flying spear, and directly pulled the trigger.

Although the swift Gu fire was suppressed to a certain extent in the severe cold weather, the momentum was still quite violent, and this Gu fire pierced directly into that Tai Sui's body like a fire snake, and I saw that Tai Sui trembled all over, and then a thick fog erupted from the inside out.

Something surprising happened, this thick fog quickly extinguished the Gu fire!

Several of us, including Chenxi, were taken aback, although I had long expected that this Tai Sui might not be as afraid of fire as before, but I didn't expect that they would be able to directly extinguish the Gu fire now.

I don't know why, seeing this situation, I suddenly got angry from my heart, and directly pulled out the mountain knife to unload this Tai Sui, although the Gu fire can't work, but I still have the real strength, this Tai Sui is not big, and I even cut it down, and it soon became countless fast and big meat pieces.

I didn't do this entirely to vent my anger, because in the short term, we're probably going to have to face a head-on battle with these Tai Sui, which means we have to master a way to kill them in one way.

That's exactly what I'm looking for right now.

Sure enough, after I dismantled this Tai Sui into eight pieces, it finally lost its previous impact, and although it was not completely dead, it at least no longer posed a threat to us.

"Dangerous...... It's almost ...... Let's go!" Dawn urged beside her.

I then withdrew my knife, pinned the Gu musket to my waist, and began to continue to run due east with the morning light.

After walking for seven or eight minutes, just when I thought we would evacuate safely, I suddenly noticed that there were still patches of corpses on the road, and this time there were more corpses.

How many of these corpses have become? In some places there are even hills of them!

And through the sight of the snow and fog in our location, there is hardly a clearing to be seen.

......

I'm not so concerned with the exact number of corpses, but with who they are!

But what makes me feel cold is that these are still our own people......

The group that died before was mainly a team of survivors, but now this group is relatively distressing to me, because there are a lot of bounty hunter corpses among them.

You must know that the number of remaining bounty hunters under Lu Ming's command is not much, and almost all of the remaining ones are the elite of the elite, I scanned around and found that there were no less than twenty or thirty bounty hunter corpses that I could see alone.

Other than that are the other personnel we have sent to the eastern part of the Qinhuai Mountains to carry out feints, these people are more mixed, including some survivors, subdued Burmese, semi-infected, and some wanderers who came from the Life 2 stronghold to help.

You must know that I did not let the people of Life Two participate in the attack at first, and now it seems that these people arrived completely later, and in my experience, it is impossible for our people to disobey my orders and let them come unless they have the necessary time.

Therefore, it was because they themselves encountered some kind of unstoppable force, so they had to seek the help of the wanderers in the second stronghold of Life.

And this "unstoppable power" is the resentful spirit!

As we walked along the edge of the area where the bodies were piled up, I quickly noticed a large amount of slime on the ground.

This mucus is completely different from the long strips of frozen mucus left by Tai Sui just now, most of these mucus are round in different sizes, and the signs of freezing are also very small, and they have only appeared for a short time.

Combined with the observation of the time of death of these corpses, I found that they were killed for no more than an hour, and some of the corpses were even bleeding.

I immediately concluded that they had been intercepted by the Resentful Spirits, but due to the presence of Bounty Hunters with strong combat power in this group, those Resentful Spirits were not unharmed.

The amount of slime left on the ground indicates that the resentful spirit has also been severely damaged, and a puddle of slime represents an annihilated resentful spirit, and the amount of slime I have observed is at least thirty or forty puddles.

From this, it can be seen that there must have been a large-scale battle here before.

Dawn soon found more footsteps on the easternmost side of the corpse, which stretched all the way into the cold storm and snow, and it seemed that many people managed to escape.

This gave me a certain degree of comfort, at least there was a living mouth, so that I could further restore the true situation of the events at that time.

But it's too early for me to worry about them, because we're not out of the tiger yet!

As I was crouching on the ground with Dawn to identify the number and direction of nearby footsteps, Amy suddenly patted me on the back, and Dawn made a quiet gesture.

Several of us, including Duan Xiaoxiao, immediately held our breath and began to listen carefully to the movements around us.

I could really feel Duan Xiaoxiao's nervousness this time, although the weather was very cold, the palms of her hands holding my arms were full of sweat.

However, I still like Duan Xiaoxiao's normal, close to real child's appearance, to be honest, the feeling she gave when she was controlled by the moon spirit before was really scary enough.

After all, Duan Xiaoxiao and Nie Bi are not the same, although Nie Bi has the ability to think very differently from his appearance, but after all, he has been abnormal since he was born, to put it mildly, I actually haven't regarded Nie Bi as a real person for a long time.

But Duan Xiaoxiao is different, she feels more like an originally normal person who has been possessed by a ghost...... And I can't abandon her, which forces me to take this "ghost" with me.

Now it seems that this "ghost" has temporarily left Duan Xiaoxiao's body, and as for when the "ghost" will come back, it will be a matter for the future.

I nodded at Duan Xiaoxiao and said "Don't be afraid" to her.

Me, Amy, and Dawn each drew their weapons, and Dawn no longer used a spear, but a long machete with a large back.

It's the first time I've seen Dawn use such a weapon, and I guess this thing wasn't chosen by him, but probably brought to him by someone from Life No. 2.

Speaking of these people from the No. 2 Stronghold of Life, although they still belong to the camp of wanderers, they have actually broken away from the entire Qinhuai Mountain Range's command system under the leadership of Qin Yao, and are now independent.

Now that I have severed ties with them, it means that we are no longer enemies, and as I said before, I still hope that nothing will happen to this group of wanderers.

But the facts are not optimistic, you must know that when Dawn first appeared, there was also a group of wanderers around her, but now they are nowhere to be found.

I hadn't had time to ask where those people were just now, but now that the situation around me hadn't gotten worse, I began to ask what was going on with Dawn and where the group had just gone.

Dawn looked around again, and then gave me a brief explanation.

I was very surprised by the information he gave, it turned out that the team of Life No. 2 did not come to our rescue spontaneously, but because the body of the Life No. 2 stronghold was attacked, and now the inside of the stronghold is in chaos, they have taken the risk to break through and ask us for help!

There were about a hundred people who broke through the encirclement, and this group of people who came to us with Dawn also wanted to find me urgently, and asked me to order all the people to go back to rescue the Life No. 2 base.

These people are more familiar with the terrain here, so they took the initiative to invite Ying, and then there is something to do.

"Who attacked Life Two?" I asked, confused.

Dawn gestured in mid-air, and finally made a wave-like sliding motion, and I immediately understood......

It turned out that the one who attacked there was also a resentful spirit!

Amy listened to this and said in a deep voice, "It seems that there are many more of these things than we expected! They have probably been entrenched in the mountains before, and have not been seen yet, just because the time is not ripe...... And now the voodoo attack is their chance to wake up!"

Amy's words are true, but I don't think that's the whole reason.

Although I can't claim to understand the inner thoughts of Moon Spirit, I still know the basic habits.

With her habits, it is impossible to put the interests of voodoo at the forefront, and if I am not mistaken, the ultimate motive for everything she is doing now, including this attack on the entire southern part of the Qinhuai Mountains, is probably still on herself and her sister Yuechen.

And voodoo is nothing more than a pawn that she uses.

After all, it is impossible for the Moon Spirit to shake the entire wanderer on her own, so she still needs a "large army" that can be seduced by her and obey her orders, and Voodoo meets this standard.

In addition, the action of resentful spirits is also worth pondering.

The first time I encountered the Spirits of Resentment in No Man's Land, they exhibited only brainless attacks, but just now, they have gone against the grain and have begun to devour our energy like vampires sucking blood.

Even Amy didn't let go.

Judging from the two piles of corpses I saw before, those people were more or less consumed before they died, because the epidermis of these corpses was a little wrinkled, which is the most typical phenomenon after the energy is absorbed.

You must know that all of us in Dongkou Province at this stage have actually been more or less infected with the Gu worm virus, including those bounty hunters who claim to be completely normal, the reason why they did not become living Gu people is completely due to their own physique, these people belong to the group of "non-responding" people with the smallest proportion after the catastrophe, compared with the living Gu people and semi-infected people, their previous experience should be considered very lucky.

But......

Not necessarily.

Because these individuals with energy in their bodies will become the main targets of resentful spirits.

So......

Why are these resentful spirits so greedy to suck the energy out of their bodies?

The fact that the resentful spirits did not display this kind of attack at the beginning shows that this is not their "habit", and now that their temperament has suddenly changed, it must be the result of manipulation by the people behind the scenes.

And this behind-the-scenes person is very likely to be Moon Ling......

So......

This proposition can be replaced with "Why do the moon spirits allow the resentful spirits to absorb a lot of energy?"

I don't know the answer, but I know it's certainly not going to be very comfortable.

......

"Be careful!" Dawn suddenly yelled.

Then I saw him slash the machete in his hand into the snow mist in front of him.

An extremely sharp scream instantly tore through the silence around me, and when Dawn pulled the knife back, I saw a hideous-looking resentful spirit attached to the blade, which was now waving its teeth and claws towards me, as if it was about to grab me.

I immediately swung the mountain opener and slashed him to the ground, and Amy next to me made up another knife, and the thing turned into thick water directly in front of our eyes.

"It's coming!" Dawn continued to roar, "a lot! surround us! can't run away!

Before I could finish speaking, the morning sun flew out two more slashes, and I soon heard two more roars, and at the same time I heard a continuous "rustle" sound from the nearby woods, which must have been the movement of the resentful spirit as it rubbed against the trees.

Fortunately, the movement was not dense here, and I immediately sandwiched Duan Xiaoxiao with Amy one after the other.

Then we saw more than a dozen resentful spirits gradually "walking" out of the wind and snow on all sides.
