Chapter 163: Rolling Blood Mist
On the other side separated by bloody fog.
The wind seemed to carry a somewhat ominous hum.
"Hahahaha, they are all monsters, they are all monsters"
"Ahhhh!"
"What elves? They are all monsters."
That heart-wrenching laughter was like a sharp blade in the cold wind, piercing through every inch of silence and making people shudder.
Man Gu frowned and stared at the figure of the knight who was stumbling and rushing towards him almost madly with a sharp gaze.
Although the figure looked disheveled, it could not conceal its former elegance and strength.
An inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in Man Gu's heart.
Could it be someone familiar?
But at this moment, he was more like a wild beast driven into despair, with only madness and despair in his eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey, where did this lunatic come from?"
The knights behind Man Gu looked at each other, and then a brave knight stepped forward and shouted angrily.
However, the mad knight seemed not to have heard the sound at all, but kept moving forward step by step, and each step was accompanied by more crazy mutterings:
"Hahahaha, they will be eaten. All of them will be eaten!"
"court death!"
In a flash, the knight swung his sword, intending to drive away the out-of-control madman.
block!
But all he saw was the blade colliding with the mad knight's body.
There was a harsh sound of metal clashing, but it didn't hurt it at all!
This scene shocked everyone present; even the air froze for a moment.
Man Gu was furious when he saw this.
He knew very well that the man in front of him was no ordinary person, so he swung his sword, with a sound of breaking wind, and went straight for the mad knight's vital point.
However, the mad knight Arsen happened at the critical moment.
Relying on instinct, he drew his sword to meet the attack.
He easily resolved Man Gu's attack. His speed and strength were astonishing.
"You, you've eaten so many people, why don't you let me go?"
Yassen's voice was hoarse and distorted, and his eyes were flashing with a mixture of madness and pain.
Man Gu frowned, puzzled.
What kind of thing could cause such a powerful warrior to collapse to this extent?
"what are you saying?"
Man Gu tried to find clues from the other party's confusing words.
But Yasen just shook his head frantically, as if he wanted to shake all the guilt and fear away in the wind.
"No, it's not my fault... I, I didn't mean to do that..."
Rumble!
Just as the two were confronting each other.
Within the blood mist.
An unprecedented terrifying aura suddenly erupted.
It was like a sleeping beast being awakened, slowly opening its huge mouth that could swallow everything.
The magic power surged like a raging tide, madly converging towards the center of the blood mist, and the entire space was shaking.
"Ahhh! No, don't!"
Yasen looked back and saw the blood mist, his face turned pale as paper, he turned around and ran away, his back full of despair and helplessness.
Man Gu looked at the direction he left, feeling mixed emotions.
But he knew that now was not the time to chase after him.
Because the blood mist was spreading at an alarming speed, swallowing up everything.
Including the land they are on!!!
"W-what on earth is going on?"
“It’s coming soon”
The knights panicked and looked around for a way to escape.
"Everyone, stop!"
Man Gu roared, resounding through the sky like thunder, instantly calming the panicked people's hearts.
"Are you going to be a deserter?"
Man Gu glanced coldly at the many knights.
No knight dared to look him in the eye.
"Don't let your honor be tarnished by cowardice! The dignity of a knight is forged with blood and courage!"
Man Gu's voice echoed on the battlefield, like an irresistible force, inspiring the suppressed fighting spirit deep in the hearts of the knights.
"Team one, team two, follow my command and march forward!"
"Captain Man Gu!"
Seeing that this reckless man wanted to use the knight's flesh and blood to fight against the blood mist, Leng Feng shouted to stop him.
“This won’t solve the problem.”
Man Gu looked back, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Could it be possible to solve it just by standing here?"
"We must go in and see what kind of monsters are inside the blood mist!"
"I tell you, behind us is our homeland, and above our homeland is our family!"
Man Gu said loudly to the knight behind him:
"Are you going to abandon your family?"
"Team One, Team Two, cover tens of thousands of infantrymen and charge into the blood formation. I want to see how much this thing can eat!"
"Barbarian Bone Leader"
Seeing this madman trying to push tens of thousands of people over to die, Leng Feng stepped forward and wanted to say something.
brush!
The next moment, a big knife was placed on his neck.
"I have tolerated you for a long time. This leader has given an order. What can a poor scholar like you say?"
"You" had a knife on his neck, but Leng Feng dared not say a word.
"Oh"
At this moment, a lazy voice was heard in the air.
"I never thought that the legendary leader of the Man Gu Group was so powerful that he could decide the lives of tens of thousands of people with just one word."
Everyone looked up and saw several huge flying dragons cutting through the sky.
Their wings blocked out the sun and brought a hint of something unusual.
And on top of the flying dragon, sat a stunningly beautiful woman—Mu Qingcheng.
The leader of the Dragon Knights, a legendary figure renowned for his wisdom and beauty.
"Dragon Knights? Mu Qingcheng, what is your purpose here?"
There was a hint of caution in Man Gu's voice.
I never expected that the person coming from Dongxia this time would be this crazy woman.
Mu Qingcheng chuckled, and there was both teasing and seriousness in that smile.
"Captain Man Gu, I am here to solve the dilemma you are facing."
When Man Gu heard this, he was stunned at first.
Then he burst into laughter, and there was both heroism and unruliness in his laughter.
"Hahahaha, how did you know? I'm in need of a beautiful woman, and you happen to be a good one."
Upon hearing this, Mu Qingcheng was not angry, but smiled even more brightly.
"It's my honor to be chosen by Captain Man Gu. But I'm afraid your body of steel won't be able to bear it."
The conversation between the two was tense and full of subtle sparks, attracting the attention of everyone present.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Leng Feng stepped forward to smooth things over.
"I wonder what the purpose of this trip is, Captain Mu Qingcheng of the Flying Dragon Knights?"
“Buy people?”
"With what you most desire right now - food."
“Oh, how do you know we’re short of it?”
A smile appeared on Man Gu's lips.
"If you are not short of resources, why are you so eager to push tens of thousands of lives into the abyss of death? You are even willing to sacrifice your own loyal subordinates."
There was a hint of blame in Mu Qingcheng's tone, but more of it was the indifference of someone who understood everything.
"If I'm not mistaken, your food reserves have already been stretched to the limit, and you can't even sustain yourself, right?"
With every word Mu Qingcheng spoke, Man Gu's brows became more and more furrowed.
"I guess!"
Mu Qingcheng's lips curled up into a playful smile, her eyes deep.
"You bandits from the West thought that looting along the way would be enough to make up for your needs."
"But I never expected that this year's drought would be so cruel, the earth was dry and cracked, and all things withered."
"People were displaced, and food became a luxury more precious than gold."
“How did you know that!”
Man Gu raised his head suddenly, his eyes flashing with disbelief.
"secret."
Mu Qingcheng chuckled, and that smile contained both pride and a hint of barely perceptible sadness, as if she herself was carrying an unknown burden.
“So, for this deal, are you going to sell it or not?”
"Sell!"
Man Gu almost blurted out the words, which made Leng Feng on the side breathe a sigh of relief.
"Okay, now that we have reached a consensus, why don't you withdraw your troops for now, Captain Man Gu, and make plans after observing the situation clearly?"
Mu Qingcheng made a suggestion, her tone revealing a hint of sincerity and concern.
“It’s none of your business!”
Man Gu responded coldly.
"withdraw troops!"
Following Man Gu's order, the originally tense atmosphere instantly relaxed.
The exhausted knights were relieved.
They can die on the battlefield.
But you can't die so inexplicably.
As for the national crisis that the team leader mentioned?
Their country is the farthest from here among the three countries.
It's not their turn to worry.
Once it spreads to their place, I'm afraid half of Beifeng and Dongxia's territory will be swallowed up.
Although, they don't think that this blood mist has such power.
After all, Beifeng and Dongxia, like their Western Land, have their own brave men.
Dongxia even has that monster swordsman.
It is impossible to let this blood mist crisis affect their country.
As for why not taking action.
Because there is no need.
Now there has been no damage to the country, so it is not the time to take action.
Not to mention, the Sword Master.
However, there are specially written laws that will cause trouble for those who want to use them against others.
However, in their retreating backs.
A dark shadow followed quietly, like a ghost in the night, silent and yet carrying an indescribable threat.
