A mob of clones

Chapter 638 Chu Xuan: Rest for a while, just for a while...

Looking at the figure in front of him that was blocking his way like an iron tower, and looking at the golden Buddhist scriptures shining behind it, Li Shuaxi's face instantly showed an irrepressible surprise.

Because of the posture in which Li Shuaxi is being dragged by Zheng Zha, from Li Shuaxi's perspective at this moment, he can clearly see that the male ghost who had just chased him and Zheng Zha to a point where they had no way out is now facing Arnold who is carrying the Buddhist scriptures.

Not only did the butcher knife, which had been invincible just now, become completely ineffective, but it also did not cause any harm to Arnold after being swung down.

On the contrary, he himself seemed to have suffered some backlash damage after swinging the knife, and a golden flame instantly ignited on the whole ghost's body.

Although the golden flame was fleeting, the male ghost became visibly more transparent, changing from a substance that looked similar to a human to a colorless shadow that looked like a virtual image.

It was obvious that after the previous attack, the male ghost was completely defenseless against spiritual bullets, protective talismans, and even Zheng Zha's blood flames. His defense had been broken by the power of the Buddhist scriptures!

At this moment, Li Shuaxi's excitement was the same as Zheng Zha's, without any falsehood.

But the next moment his expression changed!

Because he saw it! He saw the male ghost wielding the butcher knife again after being attacked by the Buddhist scriptures.

But this time he actually took a step forward and directly stuffed his entire body into Arnold's body!

And the hand holding the butcher knife was still outside Arnold's body!

I looked at the direction where the butcher knife was swinging, and it was facing Li Shuaxi's thigh.

Almost instantly, Li Shuaxi's mind flashed with the image of his thigh being chopped off, and then a horrific scene appeared in his abdomen where his intestines and even belly were torn apart and burst out of his stomach.

A look of fear suddenly appeared on his face.

Fortunately, God favors Li Shuaxi.

Just as the butcher knife pierced through Arnold's back, the tip of the knife flew straight out, emitting a dazzling murderous light towards Li Shuaxi beside Zheng Zha.

"touch~"

A bullet engraved with runes suddenly broke through the air and hit the waving hand accurately from the side.

Unlike the series of ineffective attacks just now carried out by Zheng Zha and Li Shuaxi, this time the spiritual bullets actually hurt the male ghost who they were helpless to do anything about.

This stopped his attack, giving Zheng Zha and Li Shuaxi a chance to react.

One of them was retreating quickly, retreating another five body lengths, while Li Shuaxi rolled to the right.

And it was this tumble that allowed Li Shuaxi to see from the corner of his eye the figure who saved his life at the critical moment, and that figure was the one who ordered Arnold to come to the rescue first - Chu Xuan!
However, at this moment, Chu Xuan did not look at the two people he had rescued. He looked ahead expressionlessly, looking at the male ghost who had indeed been hit by his spiritual bullet and suffered some damage, and who had also been burned by the Buddhist scriptures the moment he appeared. He reached out and adjusted his glasses.

It seemed to confirm some guess in my mind.

He did not turn his head, his eyes still staring straight at the male ghost in front of him. He raised his foot and took a few steps forward, walking in front of Zheng Zha.

"According to my observation, this male ghost only reveals his figure at the moment of attack."

“And possess a certain wisdom.”

"Goblins at other stages don't have the intelligence to switch targets directly after discovering that their attacks are ineffective..."

"I'll act as bait to lure him into attacking! Hurry up and kill him with spiritual bullets."

Zheng Zha was slightly stunned when he heard Chu Xuan's sudden words, but immediately nodded vigorously.

Although Zheng Zha has a lot of questions he wants to ask now, looking at the enemies in front of him, it is obvious that now is not the time to talk about this.

However, Zheng Zha still raised a question about Chu Xuan's plan.

"How can you avoid being hurt by this male ghost? This guy seems to be able to move in space, and after swinging the blade, whether it can hit us or not, we will be hurt!"

Hearing that Zheng Zha actually cared about him, Chu Xuan raised his eyes slightly, seeming a little surprised.

"No problem, Arnold will throw the Buddhist scriptures in his hand to me later!"

Chu Xuan raised his glasses and said:

"Arnold's six physical qualities, especially his intelligence, have reached over 200. He is much more reliable than you in calculating timing."

In response to this, someone with an intelligence attribute of 187: "..."

However, the two of them only chatted for a short while. The male ghost in front of them gradually recovered his knife-holding hand and the killing process was restarted.

After confirming that he could not stop the male ghost, Arnold immediately stopped being an obstacle to his vision.

He quickly moved his body, exposing the male ghost hidden in his huge body, and at the same time took out the Buddhist scriptures that were stored close to his back.

He seized the opportunity and threw the Buddhist scriptures out with force when the male ghost was about to swing his knife.

Immediately, Chu Xuan and Zheng Zha turned their heads away.

Chu Xuan stood there, looking solemnly at the male ghost in front of him, while observing the overall situation. His eyes under his glasses were particularly focused on the Buddhist scriptures on Arnold's side.

Zheng Zha quickly found a suitable position, about ten meters away from Chu Xuan, to prevent the monster's hatred from being transferred due to some other accidents...

Kayako's husband transformed into a male ghost and moved as quickly as ever.

Even with the reaction abilities of Zheng Zha and Chu Xuan's first-order gene locks, they still couldn't react specifically to the entire process from the other party raising the knife in his hand to suddenly appearing in front of them.

Fortunately, the Buddhist scriptures had already arrived at this time.

The bullets whizzing out of Zheng Zha's pistol were already heading towards the male ghost with the butcher knife under his command.

But at this moment something unexpected happened...

A black shadow suddenly crossed the night sky, and abruptly intercepted the golden Buddha light that drew a beautiful parabola in the sky.

The Buddhist scriptures failed to reach Chu Xuan's hands, but the male ghost's attack was already approaching!

"Oh no! Get out of here!"

"Shh!"

The silver blade slashed across Chu Xuan's chest, and large pieces of flesh and blood were torn apart by the sharp blade.

Chu Xuan's eyes widened behind his glasses. A strong feeling of distension was transmitted from his stomach to his brain. His body's instinctive reaction made him open his mouth uncontrollably and spit out a large mouthful of dirty mixed blood.

Such a sudden change made Zheng Zha stunned.

Fortunately, the reaction ability of the first-level gene lock enabled Zheng Zha to respond to the battle situation very accurately.

He raised his foot and ran forward quickly, while pulling the trigger of the gun in his hand quickly.

In just three steps, the male ghost holding the butcher knife disappeared along with the large piece of flesh and blood on Chu Xuan's body.

Including the strange paper doors that appeared around, and all the strange phenomena nearby.

The moment the strange vision around disappeared, Zheng Zha's figure also came in front of Chu Xuan and stretched out his hand to support his body.

He looked at the shocking scar on Chu Xuan's chest, with obvious shock and anger on his face.

Seeing the black shadow snatching the scriptures and then immediately moving away, Zheng Zha's eyes were filled with obvious anger.

He wanted to raise his foot to chase, but the other party seemed to have foresight and several bullets were flying towards his position.

This forced Zheng Zha to step back and dodge.

Arnold on the side also wanted to chase, but the bullets followed him like a shadow.

Moreover, Arnold's huge body reduced the space it could hide in. He was shot in the shoulder, calf, left wrist and immediately lost the ability to pursue...

As for Zheng Zha, when he calmed down and wanted to move forward, the black shadow had already disappeared into the darkness. Who knew where it turned? !

"Damn!!!"

At this moment, Zheng Zha was furious and was about to continue chasing him, but Chu Xuan beside him spit out a mouthful of blood, forcing him to stop.

He held Zheng Zha's body with both hands and tried to lay him flat on the ground.

But when his gaze turned to the face that appeared, the anger on his face paused slightly.

Because at this moment, even though he was seriously injured due to unexpected factors, even though blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, even though there was a shocking scar on his chest, and even his movements were very difficult, Chu Xuan's face remained calm...

The calm look in his eyes was as if the one who was hurt was not him, but Zheng Zha in front of him...

Zheng Zha even seemed to see something on his face that he had never seen on his face before...

easy?

"Did you see it clearly? The figure who just snatched the Buddhist scriptures?"

Without waiting for Zheng Zha to speak, Chu Xuan, who was seriously injured and constantly spitting blood, spoke first, and at this moment there seemed to be a little... smile on his face.

Yes, a real smile.

Zheng Zha, who had activated the first-order gene lock, could see that it was not the fake smile on the other person's face as it was when they first met, but a smile of genuine relief.

Zheng Zha didn't understand why the other person was laughing like that. He just saw his own face and his own stupidity in the other person's very difficult and crooked eyes.

"Look carefully..., that is..."

"Li Shuaixi..."

At this moment, Zheng Zha felt that he was a little afraid to look into Chu Xuan's eyes.

It seemed that he wanted to avoid the possible mockery in Chu Xuan's eyes in this way.

But in fact, it is not...

"So what do you think?"

Chu Xuan's voice was still so calm, as if nothing could shake his heart.

Recalling Li Shuaxi's performance in the main god space, Zheng Zha originally wanted to find some excuses for him, but the other party completely disappeared from the spot. Thinking of the bullet shot at him, looking at Arnold who fell to the ground after being shot, Zheng Zha couldn't spit out the excuse that just came to his mouth.

He could only speak in a hoarse voice:

"I misjudged him! I was wrong!"

"Like an idiot, I recognized others on my own, but was stabbed in the back by the so-called partner I recognized..."

At this moment, Zheng Zha lowered his head, and his mood was visibly depressed.

In the previous ten days in the main god space, Zheng Zha has basically recognized Li Shuaxi's position in the Zhongzhou team.

Recognize that he is a partner you can trust.

But the scene before him gave him a slap in the face that was not just loud.

Before, he felt disgusted by Chu Xuan's behavior of using any means necessary for the team's progress, and even using his unsuspecting companions as bargaining chips for the so-called overall situation.

But he treated as his teammate a person who literally stabbed his companions in the back and used other people's lives as a shield at critical moments.

Given Li Shuaxi's current behavior, the credibility of his previous words in the main god space is questionable.

Now, putting aside his tinted glasses, Zheng Zha's mind, which had 187 intelligence points, reappeared the words that Li Shuaxi had said after returning from the real world.

At that time, they found that although there were many loopholes, if they were willing to think carefully and not pre-set their identities, the confrontation between the two sides should not have led to the current situation...

In Zheng Zha's opinion, the word "stupid" alone is probably not enough to describe his current clownish behavior...

"If you want to laugh at me, then go ahead~"

"Why would I laugh at you~"

At this moment, Chu Xuan's expression was still calm as usual. He neither looked at Chu Xuan nor at the injuries on his body. He just stared blankly at the sky, at the sky shrouded in dark clouds.

"One's yearning will always run out."

"Even though I am praised as the wisest person in reality, I didn't expect you to be able to pass Alien 1 so easily."

"I didn't expect that there would be someone stronger than I imagined in the team."

"Everyone makes mistakes sometimes."

“This is nothing to laugh at.”

Hearing Chu Xuan's words, Zheng Zha raised his head slightly and looked at Chu Xuan.

"Chu Xuan, did you foresee the current situation from the very beginning, so you left this unsafe team and planned to try it alone with the clues you found?"

In response to Zheng Zha's question, Chu Xuan came back to his senses and shook his head.

"No, I just want to find a quiet place to rest..."

Chu Xuan opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but at this moment a large amount of blood spurted out of his mouth.

The black blood mixed with internal organs was like wriggling little insects, crawling out of Chu Xuan's nostrils, mouth, and even eyes and ears.

Chu Xuan suddenly felt his internal organs spasming, and blood began to gush out of his mouth and nose. Then he cried out and vomited a large mouthful of black blood, which contained countless fragments of his internal organs.

Seeing such a change, Zheng Zha's expression changed instantly.

But before he could react, he also widened his eyes...

"Wow……"

Zheng Zha suddenly fell to the ground, feeling his internal organs cramping.

Blood kept gushing out of his mouth and nose, and large mouthfuls of black blood kept flowing out of his throat.

Zheng Zha was also hit by the same move that Chu Xuan was hit by!

Feeling the abnormality in his body, Chu Xuan immediately understood the changes in himself and showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

“No wonder the sixth wave didn’t arrive in time after the fifth wave.”

"The sixth wave... is this attacking the internal organs from within?"

At the same time, Chu Xuan turned to look at Zheng Zha, and then looked at Arnold who was shot and fell to the ground but did not show the same intention as them. He seemed to understand something.

"If you were attacked by a male ghost in the fifth wave, will you be invaded by ghosts in the sixth wave?"

He opened his mouth and uttered this information into the recording at the same time. His body's instinct told Chu Xuan that it was time to rest.

He completely ignored the abnormality on his body, pulled out the gun and pointed it at his abdomen...

Then--

"Coax~"

Feeling the abnormality in his abdomen disappearing and feeling the life in his body quickly ebbing away, Chu Xuan finally showed a relieved smile on his face. He raised his hand forcefully and aimed it at the abdomen of Zheng Zha next to him.

He did not pull the trigger this time, but the movement beside him also caught Zheng Zha's attention.

Looking at Chu Xuan's actions, Zheng Zha immediately understood what he meant.

He forced himself to suppress the abnormality in his body. Veins popped out on his forehead. He forced himself to stand up straight and looked at his bloated belly. A strong inner force gathered in his hands, on the ring on the finger of his right hand!

"Whatever the hell you are, get out of here!"

The roar was loud, and golden flames ignited on Zheng Zha's body.

The terrifying power was directly poured into Zheng Zha's abdomen.
This blow was like a steel needle piercing into a balloon, and Zheng Zha's swollen abdomen instantly returned to normal.

However, although the strange phenomenon on the body disappeared, the damaged internal organs were not so easy to recover.

Fortunately, Zheng Zha's body has a strong recovery ability, and such injuries have not caused him to completely lose his ability to move.

He propped himself up with some difficulty, and crawled to Chu Xuan's side tremblingly. He looked at his abdomen which was falling down, and took out the hemostatic spray from it with difficulty.

"Chu Xuan, wake up, don't sleep!"

"I have a hemostatic spray here. The bleeding on your body will stop soon. This is a recovery potion. Drink it quickly!"

Feeling his body shaking and listening to the voice beside him, Chu Xuan, who was about to close his eyes, regained his consciousness and looked at Zheng Zha in front of him. He looked at the recovery potion that he was passing to his mouth, but he did not open his mouth, but just shook his head slightly...

"I'll keep this for yourself~"

"cough--"

"According to my guess, Kayako should have a seventh wave. You should drink it soon and regain your mobility..."

"No, drink it quickly! I still have some here! If you join in the seventh wave, your chances of winning will be better, right? Drink it quickly!"

"I'll bandage you and stop the bleeding. It'll be fine!"

Looking at Zheng Zha's anxious expression in front of him, Chu Xuan did not say anything. He just opened his eyes blankly and looked up at the sky.

At some point the dark clouds in the sky disappeared without a trace, and the brilliant Milky Way reappeared above the horizon, complementing the moon in the sky and emitting a bright glow.

The starlight reflected in Chu Xuan's eyes, making him feel as if he was back to the scene when he first saw the Milky Way and recalled a conversation at that time.

The scene at that time was swapped with the scene in front of him, and Chu Xuan's eyes, which had always remained bright, gradually became dim at this moment.

"The starry sky is beautiful..."

"I'm just a little tired. Let me rest for a while, just a little while..."

……

At the same time, somewhere else under the starry sky...

Looking at the Buddha's light shining in front of him, the golden Buddha's light penetrated into his body and instantly eliminated the ghost in his stomach that had just started to make trouble, Li Shuaxi showed a surprised smile on his face.

"Sure enough! I knew there was more! I knew it!"

"Sure enough, my choices were all correct!"

"The Buddhist scriptures are the only way to survive!"

"This is the only way to pass the Grudge!"

"Hahahaha-"

The slightly crazy laughter spread in all directions and into the surrounding darkness, then was swallowed up by the mysterious black and disappeared.

Looking from a distance, you will find that the dense dark clouds in the sky are gathering at this moment, gathering in this bright place. Looking down from the sky, it looks like a giant anglerfish.

As the darkness opened its mouth, the light was completely swallowed up and disappeared, and a dark face appeared between heaven and earth, turning into a pale face, like a giant snake swallowing and spitting out the world.

After swallowing the gentle Buddha light, the pale face turned slightly to look in one direction of the city, looking towards a certain place in the city. A pair of dark eyes seemed to be able to see through the darkness and see two blood-stained figures...

It seems that it is the turn of those two people next!

but……

"Yeah, yeah, yeah~"

"Although giving way to the elderly, the weak, women and children is a virtue~"

"But I'm sorry, ma'am, this is off-limits!"
