Without a word, Zhou Wen summoned his Yin-Yang Purple Air Bell and aimed it at the black smoke.
The surging black smoke seemed to be sucked away as it surged into the Yin-Yang Purple Air Bell. In the blink of an eye, it was sucked clean.
The monster seemed somewhat puzzled, unsure of what had happened. It stared at the Yin-Yang Purple Air Bell with its strange eyes. Zhou Wen held the bell and shook it at the monster.
Black smoke immediately surged out of the bell and enveloped the monster's body. When the black smoke touched its scales, it immediately seeped in. The monster's eyes rolled back as it collapsed to the ground.
Holy sh * t, is this black smoke that domineering? Even the monster poisoned itself to death? " Zhou Wen was alarmed, but on careful look, he realized that the monster hadn't died. It had only fallen asleep.
The monster had fallen asleep, and its Life Soul seemed to have lost control. It floated motionlessly above its head.
Seeing such a good opportunity, Zhou Wen couldn't miss it. He charged forward with the Overlord Spear in hand and stabbed the monster's abdomen.
The Ever-Victorious skill came into effect. The tip of the spear stabbed in, opening up a hole in the monster's abdomen. Black blood immediately flowed to the ground.
He didn't know what kind of power the black smoke had. Despite having such a huge hole and bleeding profusely, the monster didn't react at all. It continued sleeping there, leaving Zhou Wen alarmed.
Zhou Wen naturally wouldn't be merciful to it. He stabbed it again and again. After stabbing it 17 to 18 times, the monster was finally killed. The black dragon-like Life Soul also shattered.
A notification popped up in-game: Killed Epic creature, Chi. Discovered Dimensional Crystal.
Zhou Wen saw that the dimensional crystal that dropped was a Strength 32 Crystal. Although its stats were very high for Zhou Wen, his limit was only 21. It was useless no matter how high it was.
After absorbing the 32 Strength Crystal, Zhou Wen felt brimming with energy. The fatigue from before was swept away, but his Strength stat didn't increase. It remained at 21 points.
Since the Wangliang and Chi have appeared, there should be a Mei. I wonder what kind of creature a Mei is. Zhou Wen was curious.
However, he was not bored enough to deliberately look for Mei. He walked in the direction of the ruins, drenched in the blood rain. Not long after, he encountered another Wangliang.
With Doctor Darkness restraining it, killing it was very easy. However, no Poison Crystal dropped. All it dropped was an ordinary Speed Crystal that was useless to Zhou Wen.
As he rushed towards the ruins, he encountered a few Wangliang and Pi, but he didn't see any Mei, nor did they drop any useful items.
After an arduous night of battle, Zhou Wen finally arrived at the ruins marked on the map.
Looking at the broken stone pillars and stone walls that stood in the blood rain not far away, Zhou Wen wasn't in a rush to get the blood-colored avatar to walk over.
Instead, he carefully read the information An Sheng had previously sent. According to the information, the Federation had sent a few batches of people to the ruins to search for the whereabouts of Ouyang Ting and the others.
However, when they entered the ruins, they would die for no reason. Even Epic experts were no exception. The reason had yet to be found.
It was also because of this that they felt that the former principal and the others had died inside. They didn't send anyone to rescue them until the An family received the news and rushed over.
Zhou Wen observed the ruins from afar, hoping to find any clues. However, they were filled with ancient symbols that he couldn't understand. No matter how he looked at them, he couldn't figure anything out.
I can only risk my life to scout ahead. Zhou Wen summoned Doctor Darkness and Ghost Bride. Together with the Three-Eyed Golden Warrior and Gold-Armored Beast, they entered the ruins while the blood-colored avatar stayed outside.
The Golden Warrior and Gold-Armored Beast were pets with powerful bodies, while Ghost Bride had a ghost body. Doctor Darkness was an Epic pet. Zhou Wen wanted to see who would die inside and use this to determine the terrifying power inside.
The four pets carefully walked into the ruins and slowly explored it.
Before he could walk far, he heard a crack. The Golden Warrior's head flew off its neck and it collapsed to the ground.
Just like what was written in the information, it died from decapitation. Zhou Wen frowned slightly. Although he had already looked very carefully, he didn't see any creatures appear, nor did he discover any energy fluctuations. It was as though an invisible executioner had chopped off the Golden Warrior's head.
Crack!
Just as Zhou Wen was pondering over it, Doctor Darkness's head fell off and he died on the spot. He didn't have any more resistance because he was an Epic creature. He died just as easily.
Zhou Wen still didn't see anything in the ruins. He couldn't even tell how Doctor Darkness died.
Not long after, the Gold-Armored Beast suffered the same fate. It also didn't have a chance to react and died just as easily. In less than five minutes, Zhou Wen's three Companion Beasts, including the Epic Doctor Darkness, were silently killed. Only Ghost Bride was still slowly floating forward.
Ghost Bride walked forward for a while, but her head wasn't chopped off. Zhou Wen couldn't help but be delighted. From the looks of it, that power is useless against ghosts.
Zhou Wen didn't dare enter himself, but with Ghost Bride around, she could scout the way for him.
Without any hesitation, Zhou Wen got Ghost Bride to speed up and began a carpet search of the ruins, hoping to discover something.
It was unknown if it was because the power in the ruins was too terrifying, but even Chi, Mei, Wang, and Liang didn't appear in the ruins. It was dead silent. Apart from the constant rain of blood, there were only the dilapidated ancient buildings.
Zhou Wen controlled Ghost Bride and got her to search for clues in the various dilapidated buildings.
This was a game, so he definitely couldn't find the former principal and company here. However, it was impossible for them to vanish into thin air. They must have gone somewhere. Zhou Wen only wanted to find that place.
At the encampment, the soldiers guarding the gate suddenly saw a person rush over as though he had gone mad. They hurriedly raised their guns and were on high alert.
"Stop. Don't go any further. Otherwise, I'll shoot." The soldier hurriedly warned when he saw the person rushing over.
However, the person didn't stop and continued running over crazily.
Just as the soldier was about to fire a warning shot, he suddenly realized that the person was wearing the same military uniform as them. However, due to the large amount of blood flowing from his body, most of the military uniform was dyed dark red.
"It's Liu Chengzhi … Didn't he follow Madam Lan to the ancient battlefield? Why did he run back alone? Where's Madam Lan and company? " One of the soldiers took a careful look and immediately recognized the person. He was alarmed as he hurriedly went forward.
Liu Chengzhi, who was covered in blood, ran over. When he saw the two of them, he immediately pounced over. The two soldiers hurriedly held him up.
"Quick … Quickly tell Adjutant An … Madam is in danger … Save her immediately … It'll be too late if we delay any longer …" Liu Chengzhi said anxiously as he coughed out blood.
