An Sheng didn't hesitate any longer. As he dodged the purple vine's attack, he sliced off another Purple Air Bell. However, this time, An Sheng didn't take it himself. Instead, he used his dagger to lift the Purple Air Bell up.
The Purple Air Bell flew straight for Zhou Wen, who reached out to catch it. The Purple Air Bell transformed into a purple gas that seeped into his skin. Without needing to expend his Primordial Energy to incubate it, it had already turned into a morning flower-like tattoo that imprinted itself on Zhou Wen's body, making him overjoyed.
It was very difficult for Zhou Wen to incubate typical Epic Companion Eggs, but the Purple Air Bell was very unique. There was no need to incubate it, allowing Zhou Wen to obtain an Epic Companion Beast.
Soon, An Sheng picked another bell. Zhou Wen reached out to catch it again and obtained another Epic Companion Beast.
An Sheng caught the last bell after slicing it off. He had also obtained two Purple Air Bells.
The four Purple Air Bells were all sliced off. The purple vine suddenly froze as though it had lost its soul.
A gust of wind blew, and the purple vine turned into dust that scattered into the sky. A perfectly fine purple vine was gone just like that.
Zhao Xin and company looked at Zhou Wen strangely. An Sheng got everyone to return to the car and continue on their way.
"Lad, how did you tell that the bells are afraid of physical attacks?" Lord Alcohol asked while sitting in the car.
The others also looked at Zhou Wen. It wasn't easy to figure out the crux of the problem in such a short period of time.
"I was inspired by your story, Lord Alcohol," Zhou Wen said.
"My story?" Lord Alcohol was somewhat surprised.
Zhou Wen continued, "Yes, your story. Didn't you say that the flying knives didn't harm Jing Daoxian and company? I was thinking that there must be a reason why they didn't harm Jing Daoxian and company. Although I didn't think of the reason, I thought of the problem with these bells. They will only counterattack when we attack, and they don't have the consciousness to attack first. Moreover, when they counterattack, they also use our strength. I wondered if there was a reason why they don't hurt people, so I thought that maybe they don't have the ability to attack people first, so I asked Adjutant An to give it a try. I didn't expect him to succeed. "
"A young man's thoughts are indeed lively. No wonder Adjutant An treats you differently. I'm really old. Even if I thought of this, I wouldn't dare to do it, "Lord Alcohol praised.
"It's just sheer luck. He's letting Adjutant An take the risk based on a guess. Even if he guessed correctly, wouldn't he be harming Adjutant An if he guessed wrongly?" Zhao Xin said with a twitch of his lips. Clearly, he disapproved of Zhou Wen's actions.
Zhou Wen didn't refute Zhao Xin and Lord Alcohol because they were right. If it was just a guess, it was indeed very irresponsible of Zhou Wen to let An Sheng take such a risk.
However, Zhou Wen wasn't guessing. He had actually seen it and knew that An Sheng would be fine. That was why he had let him go. However, there was no need for Zhou Wen to explain this to others.
On the way, they encountered quite a number of problems. However, these people were all experts at the Epic stage. Each of them had their own unique skills, so Zhou Wen didn't need to do anything to resolve the problems.
Zhou Wen kept gaming while sitting in the car. He grinded the tiger several times, but he failed to get a Companion Egg drop.
When can I be like Wang Lu and bring the baby tiger everywhere to drop Companion Eggs? Zhou Wen really wanted a lucky baby tiger, but he couldn't get one.
Originally, it wouldn't take more than a day to drive from Luoyang to Zhuolu County, but now that there were dimensional zones everywhere, they couldn't proceed in a straight line. The highway was also difficult to pass through, and they encountered some problems along the way. It wasn't until the evening of the fourth day that they finally arrived at Zhuolu County.
There weren't many ordinary people left in Zhuolu County. Most of the humans had already fled to larger cities. Only a small number of freelance hunters and some military organizations remained.
An Sheng drove the car into a huge yard that looked like a government unit. There were quite a number of soldiers inside.
"Adjutant An." An officer immediately came forward and bowed to An Sheng.
"How's the situation here? Where's Madam? "An Sheng asked.
"Madam has already brought people into the ancient battlefield," the officer said with a bitter smile.
"What happened? Didn't I tell you to calm Madam down and get her to wait two days before entering? "An Sheng's expression immediately changed.
Although he wasn't the biological son of the An family, An Tianzuo and Ouyang Lan treated him like family. An Sheng had long treated them as family.
"We have already done as you said. Madam originally agreed, but two days ago, there was an anomaly at the ancient battlefield. Madam couldn't wait any longer, so she brought people in first," the officer said.
"What anomaly?" An Sheng's expression turned uglier. The occurrence of an anomaly meant that the place had become more dangerous.
"It's raining in the ancient battlefield. It's a very heavy rain and the color of the rain is red. Anyone who comes into contact with the blood-like rain will go berserk and bite any living thing it sees, just like a rabid dog. When the blood rain first started, a few soldiers didn't pay attention and got drenched by the blood rain. When we saw those soldiers, they were already biting each other. "The officer seemed to recall the scene at that time and couldn't help but shiver.
"Young Master Wen, stay at the encampment and wait. I'll head to the battlefield to take a look," An Sheng said as he prepared to lead his men to the ancient battlefield.
"Ah Sheng, take me with you. I'll just watch from outside the battlefield. I won't cause you any trouble," Zhou Wen said.
"Alright, but you have to promise me that you definitely won't enter." An Sheng knew that Zhou Wen's personality was too similar to the An family. Even if he didn't let Zhou Wen go, Zhou Wen would definitely go by himself. It was better to bring him along so that he could keep an eye on things.
"I said I won't enter. Don't worry, I know my abilities are limited. I won't cause you any trouble." Zhou Wen was telling the truth. He had no intention of entering. It wasn't a place he could set foot in for now.
An Sheng got someone to bring the latest information and gave Lord Alcohol and company a copy. He got them to take a look on the way.
Zhou Wen also received a copy. After getting into the car, he carefully flipped through it.
The situation on the battlefield was indeed terrible. When the expedition team first arrived, there weren't so many anomalies in the dimensional zones. There didn't seem to be much danger inside. They only discovered some ancient ruins, so they hired many experts to do research here. One of them was the authority in history, Ouyang Ting, who was also the former principal.
However, who knew that with the passage of time, there would be more and more anomalies in the ancient battlefield? More than a month ago, the former principal, a group of experts, and the people protecting them were trapped inside. Only a soldier in charge of guarding the equipment escaped.
