The blue flame spread wildly in all directions. In an instant, the ground below them became a living hell for the mutated creatures! A deep blue flower bloomed on the surface of the ground, accompanied by an incessant shrill scream. Then, it slowly spread out!
Strangely, there was no smoke at all. The blue flame just burned quietly. However, in this silent flame, the screams of the mutated creatures sent chills down everyone's spines. They could even see the mutated creatures turning into piles of ash, leaving only their bones behind.
It was a complete mess down below, and the bugs that were stained with the solution were in a worse state. The blue flame stayed on their skin, burning quietly. No matter how they rolled, jumped, or howled, the flame would still burn quietly. The blue flame would slowly sink into the skin, and the rats' screams would become more and more shrill, biting everything around them in a frenzy. Slowly, their red eyes would lose their life. However, the blue flame would not be extinguished. It would burn along the skin, bit by bit, until it turned into ash.
Everyone was shocked!
Such a strange scene! Such a strange blue flame! Even the Blaze-light that was hovering silently in the air was so strange!
Everyone, no matter who it was, stopped thinking in the face of this strange scene.
Even though the mechs were already very high up in the air, the waves of heat still forced them to fly even higher.
In fact, Ye Chong was also shocked! He only wanted to formulate a strong burning solution. He knew that most living things were afraid of fire, and that was why he came up with this method. Of all the formulas he remembered, the Bluefire solution was undoubtedly the most practical one.
Lunatic Guan's chip introduced the solution very simply, "Bluefire solution, a strong burning solution, can be used as a burning medium, from the Fei Family." On Lunatic Guan's chip, as long as the formula was not from the Guan Family, she would state the source.
Ye Chong did not know what the Fei Family was, but since she said it was a strong burning solution, it should not be a problem.
It was so simple that Ye Chong was still worried about the effect of the Bluefire solution just now. However, he did not expect the solution to be so strong in burning. Fortunately, Ye Chong threw the bottle further away from the school building, or the students would have been hurt.
A long time ago, the Bluefire solution was a secret of the Fei Family. The flame it produced was called the Blue Flame, and it was a famous defensive weapon for the descendants of the Fei Family. Ye Chong did not expect Lan Huo to be so famous back in the day. With the passing of time, the powerful families of the past gradually declined, and the rise of energy weapons caused the decline of other weapons. The reason why Lunatic Guan wanted to search for the Bluefire Liquid that had been lost in history was that she had seen this famous "Blue Flame" in the notes of her predecessors more than once.
However, times had changed. Just like how the past, the Bluefire solution was now only a common alchemy ingredient. Lunatic Guan did not spend much time studying the Blue Flame Liquid. She had too many methods to defend herself, and they were all safe and effective. The Blue Flame was not outstanding among them.
In the past, the Fei Family only used a small bottle of the solution. No one would be like Ye Chong, using tons of solution!
The whole world was silent because of the Blue Flame that bloomed silently on the ground. Everyone watching in front of the holographic screen was silent!
Mi De was trembling. His forehead was drenched in sweat as if he was in a desert. However, his hands and feet were ice cold. Not only his hands and feet, but even his heart was cold. He could not help but tremble at the thought of the terrible thing the mech was carrying.
All the students and teachers in the school building, whether they were in the building or in their mechs, were pale as a sheet. They were the ones closest to the strange blue flame. Some of their hair had turned dry and yellow because of the heatwave that hit them in the face.
The ferocious mutated creature began to wail less and less. The Blue Flame did not die out, but burned quietly.
Ye Chong had recovered from his shock. He spoke to Mi De and Fatty in the comms channel, "Now throw the liquid in your hands down. Pay attention to the direction."
Ye Chong's sudden words surprised the two of them. Fatty almost lost control. The two of them flew cautiously to the other side of the school building at the speed of a tortoise, and hurriedly dropped the liquid tanks in their mechs. Then they flew back to Ye Chong, as if someone had stepped on their tail.
Bi Bo's face was pale. He missed his aim a few times, but at least he managed to ignite the flame.
Perhaps people were used to mech battles, perhaps even a clash between warships would not faze them, perhaps the explosion of a planet was nothing out of the ordinary to most people, but they would still be afraid of the blue flame.
Primitive and mysterious, as well as the intense burning nature that defied normal combustion characteristics. He watched a living creature turn into a pile of ashes in front of his eyes, and all of this happened in just a few minutes. All of this was just a pile of blue flames.
People are always afraid of things that they are not familiar with.
The students and teachers in the school building stopped what they were doing, and stared at the scene before them.
From afar, three Blue Flowers had fallen around the school building in a triangular formation. Around the three flowers were countless sparks of Blue Flame, like stars surrounding the moon. These were the mutated creatures that had been caught by the Blue Flame. Unfortunately, they only managed to take a few steps before dying. The blue flames did not extinguish because of this and continued to burn stubbornly.
The rats retreated. Not only the rats, but all the mutated creatures retreated in panic. The speed at which they retreated was much faster than the speed at which they attacked.
The three piles of Blue Flame were still burning. The heat wave was too much for the girls. All the mechs began to act as transport vehicles. No one dared to walk past the Blue Flame.
All the Blue Flame, big or small, burned for three whole days. Just when the audience was still in shock, someone realized the value of the Blue Flame liquid. They heard the ingredients that Ye Chong mentioned clearly. When the blue flame appeared, almost every alchemist stood up and began to search the room for the ingredients that were spat out by the mysterious young man.
However, they could not make the terrifying Blue Flame liquid no matter how hard they tried. Now they hated Bi Bo. Why did he only take pictures of his face? Why did he only take pictures of his face? They did not see the movements of the young man's hands, or the amount of each ingredient.
No one knew how many alchemists had failed because of the Blue Flame liquid. In fact, from the moment the Blue Flame liquid appeared, countless alchemists had been trying to recreate the Blue Flame. However, no matter how they tried, they could not make the real Blue Flame liquid. The Blue Flame liquid they produced could also burn, but the flame produced was much weaker than the Blue Flame.
From that day onwards, the alchemy world had another problem. The conundrum was so famous that almost every alchemist was familiar with it. They could even name the eight ingredients easily.
However, it was not until 30 years later that an alchemist named Charles found the real formula for the Blue Flame liquid and became famous.
Of course, Ye Chong did not know about this. He looked at the Blue Flame below him, carefully calculating its damage and tried to find its application range.
The students in the building were escorted by the remaining mechs to the medicine storage building where Fei Si was. In fact, no one wanted to stay in the building anymore. The terrifying Blue Flame made everyone feel a chill in their hearts. Now that the building was sturdy, there was no need to worry about the creepy crawlies breaking in.
Everyone had a look of lingering fear on their faces. Before this day, they were just ordinary teachers or students. However, in the past few hours, they had been struggling between life and death. They had seen their old friends drowned by the rodents, and their beloved teachers devoured by the mutated creatures.
It was terrifying! Everyone's eyes were filled with fear. What was their fate?
Death had never been so close to them before!
Thanks to Ye Chong, there were not many injured. Most of them were the students who were defending the inner layer against the crawlies. The teachers and students who were defending the outer layer were mostly safe with the protection of their mechs. However, the bite marks on every mech were horrifying. The old man was slightly injured, but it was only a light injury. The main reason was that his combat style was too fierce. Once he started fighting, he would completely disregard his own safety.
Ye Chong did not speak, and continued to sit in the corner.
However, no one dared to be disrespectful to him now. In a way, he was the savior of everyone here. His powerful combat skills and the terrifying blue flame he had created added a layer of mystery to him.
However, the strangest thing was that no one here knew this student, let alone his name and profession.
Ye Chong closed his eyes. The reason was simple - no matter who it was, they would not be happy to see their eyes filled with blue lines. Besides, he was thinking about a problem. Now, he was thinking about how to return to the base on Yi Ju safely.
Sang Pu and the rest did not know about Ye Chong's current situation, and Ye Chong did not alert them either. Distant water could not quench the present thirst. They were far away on Yi Ju, and it would take them some time to reach Zhou Jian. Everything depended on him now. As Ye Chong expected, Sang Pu and the rest did not know Ye Chong's current situation. Ye Chong had ordered that no one was allowed to leave the base until the problem of aura concealment was solved.
Ye Chong had bought a lot of resources for the base last time, but that did not include entertainment facilities or virtual world connections. The Sang Tribe naturally did not have the concept of entertainment. They were all confused by the difficult problem of aura concealment. As for Hai Lian and the rest, they were trained to death by Sang Pu, who could not stand the fact that his subordinates were average in strength.
If Ye Chong was alone, he would have flown Han Jia to search for starships. He was not afraid of the mutated birds in the sky. However, he had decided to bring Old Jalopy and Fei Si with him no matter what. The old man was the most important, and Fei Si was just a buy-one-get-one-free accessory.
Ye Chong heaved a sigh of relief when he arrived at the school building. The old man and Fei Si were safe now, which meant that he could search for starships on his own.
Ye Chong deployed Blaze-light and prepared to search for a starship. Without a starship, escaping would be impossible. Bi Bo wanted to follow Ye Chong out of professionalism, but when he saw Ye Chong's unfriendly stare, he obediently sat down in a corner. He didn't dare to go against this killing god. Moreover, the reason why so many people were still alive was mostly due to the efforts of this mysterious young man in front of him. It would be suicidal to offend the public now.
The passage area of Zhou Jian was already a mess. The ground was littered with corpses, a sign that a disaster had just happened here. Countless starships were parked there, but the usual bustling noises were gone, replaced by a deathly stillness.
Ye Chong searched the corpses on the ground, and soon found a starship's signal key. Based on the serial number on the signal key, it only took him three minutes to locate the starship. It was a normal mid-sized starship. Ye Chong activated the signal key, opened the cabin door, and entered. There was no one inside. Everything was neatly arranged. It seemed that everyone on this starship had met with misfortune.
However, Ye Chong soon realized a very important problem. He was alone. Even with Old Jalopy and Fei Si, there were only three of them. How could three people pilot a starship? He did not have to worry about these problems in the past. Only now did he realize how fortunate he used to be!
What a headache!
*****
His stomach was churning. He finally knew what it felt like to die. He sat on the toilet with a pen and paper in hand, and thought of a good plot. Was this a win-lose situation?
