"That's good." Dean was a little relieved: "Prepare a batch of wall builders to transform Utopia mountain. Also stop the transportation of flames to the wall of sighs. Send them here and be ready for war."
"If you want to bury the gunpowder, the previous tunnel is already there. We can bury the gunpowder at any time," Neuss said.
Dean shook his head: "The previous amount of gunpowder was too little. This time we have to bury the entire mountain with gunpowder. This time they suffered a big loss. The next time they come, they will be more prepared. Maybe there will be stronger people coming, so we will have to use more gunpowder."
"Bury the entire mountain with gunpowder?" Neuss couldn't help but ask: "If that's the case, won't everyone on the mountain be able to survive the explosion?"
Dudian nodded: "So let Barton and Sergei go to the second base to deal with the affairs there. I'll take care of things here."
"But in that case, you will also be injured!"
"I have my own ways to protect myself. Go ahead and do it." Dean's eyes were calm as he said: "In addition, send more people to patrol the mountain. Be on high alert. Don't relax even for a moment."
Neuss was startled. He was about to open his mouth but he was shocked. Since he was going to bury the gunpowder why would he send people to patrol the mountain? Obviously it was unnecessary! He was well aware of Dean's ruthless means. He was afraid that the patrols were just a cover. If the enemy really attacked then most of them would be killed along with the mountain. No one would be spared!
He felt a chill in his heart. This was a cruel and ruthless method of killing 1000 enemies and sacrificing 800 of oneself. But he couldn't say anything to stop it, because today's battle also showed him how difficult Dean's situation was. A little mistake and he would be killed at this moment.
Sergei and his accomplices wouldn't have a good end if Dudian was killed!
"I know. I'll send people to do it." Neuss lowered his head.
Dean nodded.
"Go."
Dean waved his hand to let Neuss retreat. He sat on the cold throne and quietly looked at the blue sky outside. The next days would be really dangerous. He didn't know whether the poison and mercury would be able to kill Hathaway or not. But in any case he had to be prepared. It didn't matter if Hathaway died or not. The news of the battle would spread to all the major forces of the inner wall and attract their attention.
"At that time, I really should have smeared corpse poison on the arrow …" He thought to himself with a trace of regret.
Many of the enemies who died in his hands died because of carelessness. He didn't expect that he would make such a mistake. Hathaway was actually able to break free from the restraint of the electric current. This was something he didn't expect. Originally, he wanted to capture her alive and torture her to vent the monstrous hatred in his heart. In the end, it became a loophole that let the enemy escape. He succeeded because of hatred, and he also failed because of hatred. It was really hateful!
…
…
Whoosh!
Hathaway flew along the sky in the direction of the sighing wall after escaping from the mountain.
Her body was like a huge black bird. When she saw that Dean did not chase after her, she was relieved. Her body also slowed down slowly. She swayed in the air, and bursts of dizziness and nausea came, making her extremely uncomfortable.
She flew over the sighing wall, but she didn't fly directly to the inner wall area. Instead, she flew outside the giant wall.
She slowly slowed down after crossing the giant wall. Her body gradually landed in the messy grass outside the giant wall. There were piles of rotten monster bones around her. She looked back and saw that no one was following her. She immediately folded her wings and drilled into the woods.
There were snakes and monsters lurking in the woods. They attacked Hathaway as she passed by.
Hathaway didn't look at them as she raised her hand. Her nails were like knives as she cut off the snake's head. She went straight into the depths of the woods.
She found a big tree and couldn't stand it anymore. She sat down on the roots of the tree and gasped for breath. Her small face had an unhealthy red color as if her face was congested.
She untied her demonic body and took out some bottles and jars from the bag on her back. Her snow-white jade-like fingers slightly trembled as she opened the bottles and took out a few green pills from one of the bottles and swallowed them. Then, she took out another bottle and poured out a dark red powder from it, smearing it on her wounds.
She swallowed her saliva and mustered up her courage to reach out to grab the arrow in her eye socket. As soon as her fingers touched the arrow, the arrow trembled and she immediately felt a tearing pain. She clenched her teeth and suddenly grabbed the arrow with her palm, pulling it out. Blood gushed out from her eye socket and sprinkled on the exquisite soft armor on her chest. It was a ghastly sight.
She didn't need to look in the mirror to know that her appearance at the moment must be extremely ugly. However, this wasn't what she was most concerned about. She didn't know if the arrow was smeared with corpse poison or not.
If Dean had smeared her sister's corpse poison on the arrow then she wouldn't be able to escape. Even if she cut out all the tissues in her eye socket she wouldn't be able to reverse the fate of being infected.
This was the reason why she didn't choose to directly return to the inner wall. If she was infected and turned into an undead then she would die if she went back to the inner wall. Even if the dragon personally obliterated her and no one would save her!
It was better to stay in the world outside the giant wall and continue to 'live' as an undead!
After all, even the Monster Research Institute couldn't tell if the infected undead had consciousness or not!
This was an eternal puzzle. Humans didn't know if there were ghosts in the world. They didn't know if their consciousness would continue to drift between heaven and earth after death. The only way to get the answer was to die! But there was no way to tell the answer to the living after death.
The same was true for the undead. After being infected by the virus, whether there was still consciousness in the brain and everything around it from the perspective of a bystander, this answer, only the undead knew.
She didn't want to die. Even if she became an undead, she wanted to live!
Hoo!
She leaned against the tree and gasped for breath. She was waiting. Although the discomfort and dizziness from her body let her know that the arrow was not smeared with corpse poison, but it definitely contained poison. If the treatment was delayed, it was likely that it wouldn't be cured!
"If he wants to smear corpse poison then it must be taken from her mouth. She is already a king of corpses. If I am infected by her venom then I should become an undead or another king of corpses in about half an hour!" Her face was ugly. She clenched her teeth and felt her body was cold. This was not the cold in her heart but the real cold. It was as if she was surrounded by ice.
She took out her dagger and tore off a piece of her soft armor. She twisted it into a twist and bit it in her mouth. Then she disinfected the dagger and raised her neck to cut out the small hole in her neck that was pierced by the arrow.
Blood flowed from her throat. She slightly gasped. This was the first time she had encountered such severe pain in her life. Her heart was full of resentment. She didn't expect that Aisha hadn't made a move yet. Dean alone made her so embarrassed!
She had an eighty percent chance of winning this trip. She didn't expect that before she met Aisha, the whole army was routed and only she escaped!
No one would believe such a battle record!
Who would believe that a pariah with no background in the outer wall not only became a pioneer but also almost wiped out the twelve of them with his own strength! In addition to her, the 'magic scorpion army' and the black-robed old man were big shots in the inner wall. The rest of the pioneers were also very famous. Such a force was enough to run amok in the barren area. But they had fallen in the outer wall!
"If I don't die, I will definitely kill you!!" She gritted her teeth in hatred. This kind of hatred was even more than her hatred for her sister because her sister had never hurt her. She had never been injured except for her own exercise since she was a child!
Half an hour passed quickly.
Hathaway had been silently counting the time. When half an hour was getting closer and closer, her heart was filled with surprise. Until the time passed, she repeatedly checked her body several times. She still didn't find any signs of zombification. Then she smiled again.
Although she was seriously injured and blind in one eye, but compared with the worst situation of being infected by the ptomaine, she was extremely lucky!
"Bastard, you didn't smear the ptomaine on the arrow. Today you let me live. The next time we meet, it will be your death!!" The smile on Hathaway's face disappeared. A trace of killing intent flashed through her eyes. She no longer waited and entered the demonic body. She spread her wings and instantly cut off the tree behind her. She flew up into the sky like a roc.
"They wanted to catch me alive but I ran away. My life isn't meant to die!" Hathaway flew in the sky. She had guessed the reason why Dean didn't smear the ptomaine on the arrow. The scorpion and the black-robed old man twitched and couldn't move. She could see that the strange attack would attract her so that Dean would have enough opportunities to kill her.
Because of this, Dean hated her so much that he didn't want to kill her directly. That would be too easy for her, and the result was that it became her only hope to survive.
"Life is impermanent and unpredictable. I really can't have too many distractions when killing the enemy!" Hathaway's mind had grown after struggling to come back from the edge of life and death. She secretly warned herself that if she met Dean again in the future, she couldn't make such a big mistake. Even if she was 100% sure she had to kill him directly.
She flew straight to the giant wall and was ready to rush back to the Dragon clan to heal and detoxify.
Right at this moment, she suddenly glanced out of the corner of her eyes, and her expression instantly changed. She forcefully stopped and lowered her head to look at a faraway ditch. There was an enormous pitch black figure squirming there.
Although she was thousands of meters high in the sky but she could see it clearly. She instantly recognized that it was similar to the black prison produced by the Monster Research Institute!
"The black prison of the Monster Research Institute? How did it come here? And it's so huge … "Hathaway was surprised. She was now a saint of the Dragon clan so she naturally knew a lot of secrets. The 'black prison' developed by the Monster Research Institute in recent years was a strange monster weapon. Even the elders of the Monastery had condemned the experiment of the Monster Research Institute. They thought that the 'black prison' was an artificial creature.
The creation of life had always been the right of the God of Light!
The experiment of the Monster Research Institute obviously violated the divine right!
However, as far as she knew, the Black Prison in the Demonic Creature Research Institute was very small. She had even personally gone to take a look. However, this one had a diameter of more than ten meters. It was practically a moving hill!
Her eyes flickered. She suddenly felt that this Demonic Creature Research Institute wasn't as simple as she thought. She looked around and didn't see anyone else, nor did she see anyone from the Demonic Creature Research Institute. Could it be that Black Hell came here by himself?
She pondered for a moment and wanted to go down to see what was going on. However, she suddenly felt dizzy and her vision turned black. At the same time, her whole body felt numb and stiff. She was shocked and didn't dare to stay any longer. She turned around and rushed into the giant wall at full speed towards the direction of the Dragon Clan.
Hathaway couldn't hold on anymore as she flew back to the Dragon clan's territory. She glided down vertically and fell on the square of a mountain. The news of the saint's injury spread throughout the Dragon clan. All the elders were alarmed. The patriarch was the first one to arrive. He brought the best doctor to check and treat Hathaway's injury.
A few days later.
Hathaway gradually woke up. Under the questioning of the patriarch and the elders, she told them the whole story of her injury. She knew that she could not hide it. There were too many people involved in this matter. The Magic Scorpion Military God of the military and the black-robed old man of the monastery were both famous figures. If she disappeared without a trace, it would definitely cause them to investigate closely. However, at the same time, she concealed her true purpose. She only said that she chased a zombie pioneer to the outer wall area. Then she realized that the situation in the outer wall area was not right. So she investigated all the way to Wu Tuo Mountain.
Then, it led to the great battle that followed.
In addition, she also said that she saw sister Aisha. But she had turned into a zombie king.
In fact, the news that Aisha was still alive had already spread to the Dragon clan. But no one had seen it with their own eyes. At this moment, Hathaway's words immediately caused an uproar. All the elders and patriarch were shocked. They couldn't believe that Aisha, who had been in the wasteland for more than ten years and had killed countless monsters and undead, was actually infected and turned into an undead!
This was simply unimaginable!
Some elders didn't believe it but they didn't say it on the spot.
The patriarch was also skeptical. He knew the relationship between the two sisters. But he felt that Hathaway shouldn't lie about such a thing.
In any case, the Dragon clan would absolutely send someone to check again. However, the information provided by Hathaway made them evaluate the strength of the people they would send. The demon scorpion war god and the black-robed old man of the Monastery were very strong. It could even be said that if Hathaway didn't have the power of bloodline then it would be difficult to win against them. Not to mention there were nine other pioneers. Such a lineup to kill the enemy in the outer wall was simply using a butcher's knife to kill a chicken. But the result was that the butcher's knife was broken!
They had to weigh the degree of danger in the outer wall.
After Hathaway told the news, she asked about her own situation. The answer she got immediately made people feel cold and even desperate.
"Although the poison in your body has been removed, you came back too late. Even though I called for people to treat you as soon as possible, it was too late. Besides the poison, mercury had also seeped into your body. The doctors could only cut off the inner walls of your organs and wash your blood at the same time to save your life. But this way, the power of your awakened bloodline has been completely eliminated, and your strength has also been weakened. But at least your life has been saved." Hathaway's father, the patriarch of the Dragon Clan, comforted her.
Hearing this, Hathaway was completely stunned.
Her bloodline power was eliminated?
She had awakened her bloodline power for the second time. Was she now an ordinary pioneer who hadn't awakened her bloodline power?
She lay on the bed in a daze. Her mind was completely unable to hold anything else. This blow was a hundred times more difficult for her to accept than losing an eye!
"Your eye has temporarily stabilized, but the damage to the tissues in your eye is too severe to repair. After you recover, I'll take you to the Monster Research Institute and have them implant another eye in you. Your vision won't be inferior to your own eye." The patriarch continued to comfort him.
Hathaway was stunned for a long time. She slowly turned her head and looked at the patriarch of the Dragon clan. Her face suddenly showed a sad smile, "Father, you never know what your child needs …"
The patriarch was stunned and silent for a while.
"I'd rather die than accept this kind of treatment. Who did this? I'm going to kill him!" Hathaway's eyes suddenly revealed a crazy killing intent. She bit her lips so hard that blood overflowed from the corner of her mouth and slid down the side of her face to the bedsheets.
