Chapter 328 The Tide of Gray Mist, choose
The lonely smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun is setting in the long river.
In the evening, under the orange-red sky, cooking smoke rises from the edge of the Island of Life.
Looking at the scene in front of him with a smile on one side, from time to time, he talked and laughed with a smile on his face, and nodded to the people who were carrying huge and lively desert-specific fish beasts, crab beasts, lizard beasts... returning with a full load.
Hoo hoo—
Winds of wind mingled with the desert, and the night fell, and the increasingly icy temperature blew towards the people in the hunting boat, and the sky became darker and darker.
Looking from a distance, it seems that you can see a few traces of gray fog... Wait! Gray fog? !
In an instant, Shan stared wide-eyed at the gray fog that appeared in the distance with his only remaining right eye, his thoughts turned and his face changed drastically.
"Jen! Honk!"
"Open the anti-spirit! The gray fog is coming!"
This sentence came from Shan who had reacted and roared!
The loud and broken roar came from far away in this orange desolate world, and the anxiety contained in it couldn't help but make people excited.
"Quick! Quick! The gray fog is coming again, hurry back to the boat!"
Suddenly, the talking and laughing people on the hunting boat road stopped their smiles, their expressions changed suddenly, and they waved their big hands to urge the partners around them.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
The happy, harmonious and natural atmosphere at the last moment was shattered in an instant by the long, warning sound!
"Grey fog?"
After spending a wonderful day with her cat and the witch doctor lady, Zhou Xiaoxiao, who was about to go home happily, was stunned. She looked at the anxious people around her in confusion, and didn't understand. what happened.
Like her, there are many around, those are the survivors of the spiritual land who have just integrated into the sandcastle, all of them are confused, but their bodies are in the mentality of conforming to the crowd, and they can't help themselves. The anxious partner returned to the hunting boat more quickly.
At this moment, even Bai Chuan felt that the situation was very wrong. He kept scanning the expressions of everyone, and he also bit the corner of the girl's clothes who was stunned, and pulled her to wake up and ran towards the deck.
"Gray fog" seems to be a very dangerous thing!
At the same time, after the initial yelling, Shan had already taken steps towards one of the core locations of this hunting ship—the anti-spirit chamber!
At this moment, Shan Cai recalled that two full years had passed since the last gray mist attack!
The gray mist that usually only falls in two years and three months, this time it was three months earlier!
Damn it!
Cursing in a low voice, he also quickened his pace. The power of the second rank made him rush towards the anti-soul room like a gust of wind.
"Ren", who had been guarding the anti-spirit room earlier after the single roar, was also anxious, first triggering the hunting ship's long siren, and then constantly directing and urging the personnel in the room to operate, don't look at this ship The hunting boat looked very old and primitive.
But don’t forget, this is a vast world with countless civilizations falling into it, and this hunting ship is the crystallization of a mysterious combination of a certain civilization and this world! Its operation is not as primitive and simple as it seems, and it is naturally not something that ordinary people can control!
At this moment, all the people became busy, even if some of them didn't understand what happened, but even if they didn't understand, it was just infected by the anxious and dignified emotions of the people around them, and they had a slight premonition in their hearts, followed by Get busy.
A large number of previously placed equipment and tents on the edge of the continent of life began to be dismantled, and they were moved by strong, tall and strong men, mixed with various animal roars, calls, and urging sounds, and there was an endless stream of noise. !
In the midst of this, Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had returned to the hunting boat, also breathed a sigh of relief, and began to observe the surroundings quietly. Although the girl didn't know what happened, in her heart, there was already something wrong. A hunting boat is the concept of safety.
Bai Chuan also frowned, and slowly approached the edge of the deck. Seeing that it was getting closer, there were even strands of gray mist blown by the cold wind because it was too thin. He stretched out a front paw and touched it lightly. That gray fog.
In an instant, a burning pain emerged directly from the left paw he touched, and the hair on the contact position turned yellow and fell off at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Immediately afterwards, his heart and body seemed to be a little restless, and he really wanted to growl and destroy something!
In an instant, Bai Chuan withdrew his claws like an electric shock, stepped back vigilantly one after another, and even pulled back the curious girl who wanted to touch like him.
Gray fog is dangerous! At least it is harmful to living things!
This is the information Bai Chuan understood in an instant.
He looked around vigilantly, and found some people who were still rushing back to the hunting boat in an orderly manner, and reminded those unknown partners all the time, not to touch the gray fog.
Time, like this, slowly passed under the tense retreat of everyone.
In less than half an hour, when the gray fog was getting thicker and slowly pressing down, all the personnel returned to the hunting boat with their own equipment.
In the next moment, as the last person stepped onto the deck, there was a clear trembling sound, and the entire ship shivered abruptly, retracting the fallen road planks, and a transparent barrier rose rapidly, enveloping the entire hunting ship. in it.
Afterwards, all the gray fog was isolated under this transparent barrier, and even a small amount of gray fog that floated into the hunting boat melted like ice and snow at this moment.
Within a few breaths, a familiar gathering sound sounded.
Everyone couldn't help but gather in the square in the middle of the deck.
Not long after, Shan with a blindfold on his left eye and a serious face, returned to the center with a big sword on his back. His expression was unusually solemn, and he even said it was serious and worried!
After staying for a long time during this period, the survivors of the spiritual land discovered that in fact, the giant man who looked very scary at first was actually a very gentle person in normal relationship.
In the past, even if some of them interrupted the other party repeatedly, they made the other party scream and threaten, and they didn't really kill them. The only one who demonstrated was to ignore the other party's majesty several times, and threw them off the hunting boat and let them live on their own. self-destruct.
If it were in other gathering places, batch after batch would have already been killed. Even if they did not make a mistake at the beginning, some people in power might take the initiative to pull out one or two to make an example.
However, such a gentle captain is extremely serious today. Coupled with the "grey fog" they just experienced, and the unusually dignified crowd, the people who just joined have a bad premonition in their hearts.
"Where's brother? Where did you go?"
Among the crowd, an extremely faint murmur sounded, which caught Bai Chuan's attention.
He turned his head, only to realize that the girl beside him was looking around, looking for something, and it was only when he suddenly realized that Zhou Yun had disappeared? !
Thinking of a certain possibility, he also kept looking around, looking for the figure of a certain young man.
"The old man knows that many of you should be very curious at this moment, what happened? I am sorry for this old man, this is not the time to talk about this..."
The one above spoke, and there was a trace of apology in his expression, one eye kept scanning the people below, and he said slowly in a gentle tone as much as possible, and his face became serious after a little explanation, "... The sudden attack of the gray mist made everyone a little flustered, now that the anti-spiritual world has started, each responsible team leader, count the number of people..."
"Leader of the logistics team, You Yu! Count your personnel!"
"yes!"
"Captain of the witch doctor team, You Ling! Count..."
"yes!"
"..."
Under the serious face, orderly orders were issued one by one, and then implemented, until the last "Captain of the soil and sand team, Yu Fei! Count your personnel!"
However, the majestic voice in Shan's imagination did not respond to him, only a dead silence!
Shan's heart skipped a beat, and he had a premonition in his heart. With a slightly ugly face, he kept scanning the crowd, but he couldn't find the thin figure. At the same time, there were bad news from the captains of each team!
"Report! Two people are missing from the logistics team..."
"Report, one member of the witch doctor team is missing..."
"..."
At this time, Bai Chuan also had some headaches, and beside him was a petite girl who couldn't find his brother, who suddenly realized something, grabbed a part of his hair and was about to cry, and it was rare for him not to avoid the girl. helpless.
He looked outside, which had become gray and erratic, mixed with strange light spots, and he could even vaguely see figures and beasts in the depths that were bigger than hunting boats in the gray mist Walk among them!
I thought it would be safe to leave the lonely city of Lingdi, but I didn't expect it to be more dangerous outside.
Even if it was just a glimpse, at the moment when he saw those figures and beasts that stretched to the sky, an aura like an abyss rushed over his face, making Bai Chuan feel a little chilled.
That is the instinctive reaction of creatures in the face of a more terrifying existence and the fatal crisis it brings.
The deepest part of flesh and blood is howling, trembling, and terrified... Escape!
Even Bai Chuan's will can't change the instinct brought by this body at present.
Bai Chuan didn't feel this feeling even when facing the second-ranked Shan. Although it was also related to the fact that Shan's aura was not exposed, there was indeed a big difference in strength and weakness.
At this moment, the hunting boat is like being caught in the center of a storm, surrounded by deadly dangers, and unfortunately, people are missing.
Bai Chuan, who didn't know what he was thinking about, slowly looked towards the front of the crowd, the tall one-eyed man Dan.
"Fifteen people, and they are the most outstanding juniors..." Shan's face darkened, listening to the reports that kept coming from his ear, he murmured heavily, his expression kept changing, and he felt a little bitter and regretful. This time it was his negligence. If he hadn't misjudged the arrival time of the gray fog, such a dangerous situation would not have appeared at all...
Unexpectedly, the gray fog that has not appeared in time for more than 30 years has begun to come early again, and it happens at this critical moment...
After a while, he closed his eyes in pain, exhaled slowly, and then opened them suddenly, his eyes flashed with determination and perseverance, and he walked back to the anti-soul room.
"Captain, the hunting boat leaves..." The second in command of the hunting boat next to him, Ren, who is very familiar with Shan, knew what was going to happen at a glance, and he hurriedly followed and tried to dissuade him.
"No," Shan shook his head, blocked Ren's hand that stopped him, and immediately the corners of his mouth curled up, turning his head to stare into Ren's eyes, "Ren, you should know what this old man is like, because all the descendants of my Shabao My mistake caused a crisis, how can this old man just give up?"
"But..." Ren wanted to say something else.
"If even the old man gives up, who else will save them? What is the difference between this sandcastle and the previous one? Isn't our hard work in vain?"
"The captain and the lord of the castle will indeed make the person who sits on him superior and enjoy privileges. It is a symbol of status and strength. But its real meaning is: when danger and disaster strike, the old man will resist everything for you, Leave the safety and warmth behind the old man."
"At the beginning, you chose to follow the old man, isn't that why?!"
"En!" Ren nodded heavily, unable to speak. At this moment, he wanted to dissuade Shan, but he couldn't say anything anymore, because it was precisely because of this that they gathered together, " Then let me be with you..."
"Okay, Ren, don't talk about it. If the old man can't do it, no amount of people will help." Shan interrupted the other party's words, and the two of them had already returned from the anti-spirit room to the high platform of the deck plaza.
He turned his head slowly, looked at the people below, and suddenly said loudly: "Ren, deputy captain! From now on, everything about this hunting boat is up to you to decide! You Yu, You Ling...you have to listen carefully. This is Ren's order. Ren, once an hour has passed and the old man has not returned, let's set off and rush back to Sandcastle."
"As the sand gathers, the sandcastle lasts forever!"
"Yes! When the sand gathers, the sandcastle lasts forever!"
"Yes!" Ren answered loudly in pain, "As the sand gathers, the sandcastle will last forever!"
The gray mist, under the caution of Shan since he took office, often stops all dangerous activities one or two months before the gray fog appears, and the younger generation on the hunting boat has not been lost in the gray fog for a long time. I really don't understand what kind of horror the gray fog has until those captains know about it!
He understands that even if Shan has reached the second rank, and has initially been able to show his supernatural power with billowing blood, it will be more or less ominous in this gray fog!
After saying that, Shan gently jumped off the high platform, and in the confusion of the crowd, he came to the relatives of the missing person step by step, comforting each one in a low voice. Those missing youths are all excellent juniors who are also Sandcastle, and they are not alone on this hunting boat.
"Zhou girl, don't worry, your brother and old man will definitely bring you back!"
After a while, the tall giant man came to the helpless girl, squatted down slowly, and whispered to her gently but firmly.
"Really, really?"
The girl's eyes were red and she scratched the big cat's soft fur and asked in a low voice.
"Yeah! It'll be fine!"
"I, can I go with you?"
"Sorry... this one won't work."
Shan Moran subconsciously clenched the gray heart that was no bigger than a palm.
Beside him, Bai Chuan narrowed his eyes and stared seriously at this rough-looking big man for a while, especially the gray heart that the other party took out after entering the cabin, which was obtained from the bodies of those "figures" in the spiritual land.
I once said that one of the most important materials in the spirit land is the spirit organs. One of its functions is related to the fog?
Various thoughts kept flashing in his mind, and Bai Chuan looked at the helpless and dazed girl who found his only relative missing in just one day.
After a while, he sighed slowly in his heart...
