Chapter 193 Siege, Lin Xiaoyu: We've never been here before!
The wide mine tunnel we came from has disappeared.
Instead, there was a perfectly sealed rock wall.
On the rock face, there are even some mosses that emit a faint glow, as if they have been there all along.
Wang Fugui stretched out his palm, as big as a palm leaf fan, and placed it on the rock wall.
The rough and hard touch, the cold reality, made his heart sink inch by inch to the bottom.
"No...it's impossible..."
His voice trembled.
"I remember it clearly, we came from here..."
He turned around abruptly to look at the group of "believers" who were getting closer and closer, their faces adorned with fanatical grins.
In the hundreds of eyes, there was no reason, only the madness of believers.
A sense of despair gripped his heart.
A mad dog is in front, and a dead end is behind.
"Fanzi, what do we do?!"
Wang Fugui shouted out subconsciously, his voice filled with a panic he himself was unaware of.
Chen Yifan remained silent.
His face was expressionless in the dim light, but his eyes were flashing with astonishing speed, analyzing everything before him.
He stepped forward but did not touch the rock face.
His gaze fell on the moss.
He reached out his finger and gently plucked a small clump of glowing moss from the newly formed rock face.
The moss on his fingertips transformed into a sticky, gleaming liquid.
His brows were furrowed tightly.
He didn't know whether the wall was real or fake.
But this moss is real.
A crazy idea flashed through his mind.
"Xiaoyu," he turned his head, his voice extremely low, "use your talent to try to communicate with these mosses and see what information you can get."
Communicating moss?
Lin Xiaoyu was stunned.
Why bother communicating with the moss at such a critical moment of life and death?
But she nodded without hesitation.
This is Chen Yifan's instruction.
"Purify them—!"
"Catch the unclean ones!"
Behind him, the group of lunatics had already rushed within thirty meters.
Various colored skill lights exploded in the crowd, converging into an energy torrent powerful enough to instantly vaporize steel.
"Fatty, protect Xiaoyu."
Chen Yifan's voice wasn't loud, but it was like a cold nail, firmly piercing into Wang Fugui's nerves, which were on the verge of being overwhelmed by fear.
"Oh shit!"
Wang Fugui cursed angrily, his fear forcibly suppressed, replaced by a ruthless determination born from being driven to the brink.
He slammed the tiger totem shield heavily onto the ground, causing the rocky surface to crack inch by inch.
"Come on, you grandsons! Let's see if your bones are harder, or if my shield is stronger!"
"Immovable as a mountain!"
A thick, earthy yellow halo enveloped his entire body.
He was like an iron tower growing from the depths of the earth, using himself to create a small, unique space for Lin Xiaoyu behind him.
At the same time, Lin Xiaoyu walked to the rock wall, stretched out her fair fingers, and gently pressed them on the moss that emitted a faint light.
Cold, damp, and slippery.
Her consciousness, connected to her innate talent of [Absolute Plant Affinity], sank down.
At that very moment, Chen Yifan's mental energy became more concentrated than ever before.
The two epic-level daggers hovering beside him hummed.
call out!call out!
Two streaks of pitch-black light cut into the chaotic torrent of attacks.
A lightning mage who was chanting a chain lightning spell suddenly had his pupils dilate, and the chanting stopped abruptly.
A dagger flashed silently across the back of his neck, taking away all his life.
Another berserker, wielding a giant axe and preparing to unleash a leaping slash, froze instantly.
He looked down at the bloody hole that had appeared out of nowhere in his chest; the dagger had even come in from behind his own shield at an impossible angle.
Nightmare Fang, withered Fang.
There were no flashy special effects, no deafening roars.
Only with extreme mental strength can one manipulate two daggers to unleash irrational carnage.
These second- and third-tier professionals, who would be considered elites by outsiders, had no defenses against him.
Chen Yifan's killings were efficient and precise, yet they also carried a chilling sense of futility.
One dagger pierced the throat of a believer, while another pierced the heart of another from behind.
A flash of white light, and the corpse vanished.
A few seconds later, the two would reappear from the respawn point at the edge of the pit, with the same infatuated smiles on their faces, and once again, like a tireless tide, they would surge towards this side.
Endless.
This is a war that is destined to wear people down to death.
"Fanzi! We can't hold on any longer!"
Wang Fugui let out a beastly roar. The tiger totem shield in his hand was covered with scratches and dents of varying depths.
Although he didn't understand why he was able to withstand most of the attacks from these level 50 or 60 professionals.
But these fireballs, ice spikes, wind blades... the dense barrage of attacks caused the ground beneath his feet to crack a little more with each impact, and made his arm holding the shield feel a little more numb and sore.
His hand was already split open, and blood was dripping down the edge of the shield, but he was completely unaware of it.
"Immovable as a mountain" does not refer to a real mountain.
It has an upper limit and a duration.
The enemy's offensive has no end.
Chen Yifan did not turn around. He focused his mental energy and manipulated the two daggers to weave through the crowd.
They took away a few more people who were near the front.
This is to relieve the pressure on Wang Fugui and to buy time for Lin Xiaoyu.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and a sharp, stabbing pain shot through his temples.
Kill one batch, and another batch comes.
The depletion of mental energy is far more exhausting than the consumption of spiritual energy and physical strength.
and many more!
Consumption?
This isn't right.
In an instant, Chen Yifan seemed to have discovered something.
Lin Xiaoyu, whom he was protecting behind him, was experiencing a completely different kind of torment.
Her consciousness pierced through the surface of the moss, through its roots…
Then, her perspective suddenly opened up!
She saw it.
Through the "eyes" of countless mosses, she saw the entire mine tunnel!
The next second, she was stunned.
She saw herself, she saw Chen Yifan, she saw Wang Fugui.
She saw the wall that had trapped them.
However, in the moss's "vision," it is indeed a wall.
But the difference is.
The information the moss was sending her told her...
They had never seen the three of them before.
They had never been to this place before.
"boom!"
Lin Xiaoyu's mind went blank.
She suddenly opened her eyes and hurriedly called out to Chen Yifan's back.
"Brother Fan! Moss says we've never been here before!"
"What the hell?!"
Wang Fugui, who was enduring a fireball, almost choked on his breath when he heard this.
"We definitely came from here!"
Chen Yifan's reaction to these words was completely different.
His movements as he manipulated the dagger paused for a moment.
really!
It's not that the road is blocked.
Rather, they were infected from the very beginning.
