Let's start by analyzing the sun

#1002 - 【985】This is the power of the sun

Chapter 988 [985] This is the Power of the Sun

The sky darkened.

It was as if night was about to fall.

In reality, it was only the afternoon.

A team of Wan Hao warriors, each wearing a bio-armor and holding a large magic rifle, patrolled a withered wasteland.

The warriors in the team cautiously observed their surroundings, especially the sky, while chatting in low voices.

"It's really strange! It seems to be getting dark earlier and earlier."

"Yeah! A month ago, there were at least three or four hours of daylight, but now there are less than two hours left."

"I wonder when the weather will return to normal."

"Maybe it will never be normal again. Maybe after a while, it will be dark all the time, and there will be no more daylight."

The last sentence of speculation silenced all the Wan Hao warriors.

The Wan Hao people were a race accustomed to daytime activities, and they couldn't imagine what life would be like if the world became a perpetual night.

After a second.

The team leader glanced back and scolded unhappily, "Zhang Biao, you damn crow's mouth, shut up if you can't speak."

The warrior called "Zhang Biao" smiled embarrassedly.

For the next ten seconds.

No one spoke.

Only the sound of combat boots stepping on withered yellow grass leaves could be heard.

This was the Scarlet Realm.

Originally, this realm was a small world with quite lush vegetation.

Due to a major change in the void, the daylight in this world gradually decreased.

This caused the surface plants to severely lack sunlight, eventually withering and dying in large numbers.

One by one, small worlds that were originally full of vitality turned into a barren desert of withered yellow plants.

Just then.

The team leader saw something, and his footsteps suddenly stopped.

The warriors behind him stopped in unison.

Zhang Biao asked curiously, "Team Leader Zhou, what's wrong?"

Team Leader Zhou did not answer.

Only then did the warriors notice the team leader's posture and looked in the direction of the latter's gaze.

Vaguely visible.

In the midst of the withered yellow.

There seemed to be a small section of white bone lying there, with a small amount of flesh still attached to the surface.

In addition.

Many traces remained on the surface of the white bone, as if it had been gnawed by sharp teeth.

Another warrior said in a low voice, "It looks like human bone."

Everyone was a warrior who had participated in many battles, so they naturally all saw that this must be the remains of a colleague.

Zhang Biao withdrew his gaze and sighed, "It should be that a few hours ago, when it was not yet dawn, this guy was caught by the 'Night Demon'."

This human bone had already revealed the victim's final fate, which was to become monster food.

Team Leader Zhou suddenly cursed viciously, "Damn 'Night Demons'!"

In fact.

The so-called "Night Demons" previously had another name - the Crimson-Eyed Race.

That is, vampires.

During the Ten Thousand Races War, the four races led by the Wan Hao Race jointly formed a four-race coalition army.

Relying on advanced weapons such as war eagles and magic rifles, the four-race coalition army defeated the vampires miserably.

However.

After the void shattered.

For some unknown reason, the vampire race had mutated one after another, evolving into a new type of monster.

The coalition army called them - Night Demons

Night Demons possessed a unique "Dark Concealment Technique" and were extremely adept at fighting in the dark.

The worst thing was that as the nights in the Scarlet Realm became longer and longer, the Night Demons' combat power was also gradually increasing.

These Night Demons were also extremely cunning. They did not engage in large-scale frontal battles with the coalition army, but instead launched harassment and guerrilla warfare.

Faced with this situation, the coalition army suffered a lot and casualties became more and more serious.

To this day.

The coalition army had basically abandoned the frontal encirclement and suppression combat mode and had all switched to strategic defense.

At this time.

Zhang Biao suddenly gritted his teeth and asked, "Team Leader Zhou, the Night Demon might still be nearby, should we track it down?"

Team Leader Zhou did not speak, his heart was in deep hesitation.

He glanced at the remains of his colleague, and really wanted to wave his hand and say heroically, "Chase it to the end and put that Night Demon on the barbecue rack."

But he looked up at the increasingly dim sky, and worried that if he chased too far and the time dragged on for too long, the team would suffer casualties.

After all, once it got dark, the Night Demons were like they had taken drugs, and their combat power instantly soared a lot.

After several seconds.

Team Leader Zhou gave up the idea of revenge with a painful expression, because he was unwilling to take too much risk.

He immediately thought of a seemingly reasonable reason: "Night Demons are very cunning. I suspect that the remains appearing here might be a trap deliberately set by the Night Demons.

"It's just to let us see the remains, to anger us, and then lure us to chase all the way up, and finally drill into the Night Demons' ambush circle."

The other warriors immediately stopped talking.

Although they also wanted revenge, they were even more unwilling to drill into a trap and lose their lives in vain.

Team Leader Zhou sighed: "There are only six of us, the number is too small. If we encounter a large number of Night Demons, we will all become Night Demons' food."

Zhang Biao was persuaded and said regretfully, "Okay, Team Leader is right!"

He then said, "I'll collect the remains and take them back for burial."

Team Leader Zhou nodded: "Go ahead!"

Zhang Biao strode over, while putting the magic rifle on his back, and took out a bag from his armor, preparing to put in the remains.

The other warriors quietly watched his back.

Zhang Biao walked to the side of the remains, stopped, and did not act immediately, but lowered his head and softly chanted:

"May your soul return to the peak of the Divine Banyan Tree and gain eternal rest."

The other five warriors looked solemn and recited together:

"May your soul return to the peak of the Divine Banyan Tree!"

To this day.

The warriors had already guessed that there seemed to be a big problem with the Sky Banyan Light Shuttle, and they might not be able to return to their hometown.

This was not too difficult to guess secret.

In the past three months, the Sky Banyan Light Shuttle had not appeared even once.

In contrast.

More than three months ago, several or dozens of light shuttles descended every day, and the entire Scarlet Realm could see them clearly.

Therefore.

When the warriors recited words such as "return to the peak of the Divine Banyan Tree", they all felt extremely complicated.

At this moment.

Zhang Biao raised his head and said with a firm expression: "You will not die in vain, we will definitely avenge you!"

Behind him.

When Team Leader Zhou heard this sentence, a trace of shame appeared in his eyes.

But the team leader recited a sentence in his heart, "I want to take everyone back," and the color of shame immediately disappeared.

If it were in the past, he would definitely chase to the end, but now it was different, the Scarlet Realm had become full of dangers.

On the other side.

Zhang Biao opened the pocket with both hands and stomped his foot on the ground.

"Pa!"

With this sound.

A force was sent into the ground.

The remains jumped up instantly, turning into an arc, and accurately fell into the pocket.

At this moment.

Zhang Biao's expression suddenly changed drastically, and his head turned to the side at the fastest speed.

Because he clearly saw that a black light suddenly shot out from the remains.

Without a doubt.

This time, the team leader's crow's mouth had become a reality.

The remains were actually a trap!

However.

Although Zhang Biao tried his best to dodge, because the distance was too close, less than a meter, he simply did not have time to dodge.

The next moment.

The black light flickered and struck Zhang Biao's face with lightning speed.

At this time.

The other warriors saw the black light and exclaimed in alarm.

Team Leader Zhou reacted the fastest, and directly stomped on the ground and swept over, wanting to rescue his subordinates.

But.

The team leader's figure only moved a little, and immediately stopped again.

Everyone saw that at the moment when the black light hit Zhang Biao, a gentle white light suddenly flashed across this guy's forehead.

The entire area within dozens of meters was illuminated by the white light.

After that.

The black light disappeared.

The white light also subsided.

Zhang Biao stood motionless in place, his face full of sluggishness.

Team Leader Zhou quickly leaned over, about two meters away, and asked with a nervous expression: "Zhang Biao, are you okay?"

The reason why the team leader did not dare to get too close was also worried that something went wrong with his subordinates, and a two-meter distance could give the team leader a little reaction time.

The other warriors did even more obviously, the magic rifles in their hands were turned at an angle, and the dark muzzles were aimed at their colleagues.

Zhang Biao came back to his senses, his expression was surprised, and also mixed with a little confusion: "Team Leader, I'm fine."

This guy glanced at the muzzles of his companions, and shouted with dissatisfaction: "Hey, I'm fine, I haven't been infected by the Night Demon, do you guys have to point the magic rifles at me?"

The warriors smiled awkwardly and put down the muzzles of the magic rifles, but they still maintained a high degree of vigilance in their hearts.

Team Leader Zhou carefully observed his subordinates several times, and took the initiative to express his attitude: "Zhang Biao is fine."

Confirmed the look!

No problem!

Another warrior joked.

"Still looking sneaky, it looks like there's really no problem."

Zhang Biao spat: "Where am I looking sneaky?"

The others laughed.

Team Leader Zhou then asked the question that everyone was concerned about: "By the way, Zhang Biao, what was the black light just now? What was the white light that came out of your face?"

Zhang Biao first answered the previous question: "The black light should be the Night Demon's trick."

This was an expected answer.

Team Leader Zhou's expression was not very good: "Damn Night Demons are getting more and more insidious."

Another warrior interjected: "It seems to be getting stronger and stronger, so the tricks are getting more and more insidious."

Zhang Biao interrupted the topic with a subtle expression: "Team Leader, have you ever heard of the 'Sun'?"

Team Leader Zhou shook his head with a blank expression: "I don't know, what is the Sun?"

The other warriors were also confused, obviously none of them had heard of it.

Zhang Biao directly used action to do a demonstration, he closed his eyes tightly and piously chanted: "Praise the Sun!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

A spot of light appeared on his forehead again, emitting a warm light.

The others only saw it, and felt that the depression and irritability in their hearts instantly dissipated by more than half.

Zhang Biao opened his eyes again, and the spot of light disappeared with it.

He pointed to his forehead and said, "This is the power of the Sun."

Team Leader Zhou looked surprised: "The power of the Sun, seems to be very restrained against Night Demons?"

Zhang Biao nodded vigorously: "Yes, if it weren't for the help of the Sun, I would definitely be dead just now."

Another warrior couldn't help but ask: "Zhang Biao, when did you master extraordinary power?"

Another warrior interjected with envy: "Are you about to become a Mystic Master?"

Zhang Biao answered the questions in turn: "About ten days ago, I would always have the same dream when I slept at night. I saw a super huge fireball in my dream.

"Starting yesterday, I suddenly discovered that as long as I silently recite a sentence praising the Sun in my heart, my forehead can emit light."

He paused and said, "As for Mystic Master, I think you're thinking too much, I can't possibly become a Mystic Master in my life.

"Because this kind of Sun power is not my power at all, it's more like a powerful god intentionally bestowing me with extraordinary power."

Zhang Biao hesitated and said, "After I obtained the power of the Sun, a voice suddenly appeared in my dream, calling me 'Sun Priest'."

The warriors looked at each other.

Because this answer really subverted their understanding.

Team Leader Zhou asked a question: "Then is there anything abnormal with your body?"

Zhang Biao shook his head: "There is nothing abnormal, but I feel a little stronger than before."

A warrior next to him immediately testified: "Zhang Biao has indeed been eating more than before these two days, I was wondering yesterday why you became a rice bucket, so that's what's going on."

Zhang Biao spat several times: "You're the rice bucket."

A group of warriors laughed.

Team Leader Zhou touched his chin and muttered, "Looking at it this way, the power of the Sun doesn't seem to be a bad thing."

Another warrior interjected: "The Sun is light, the Night Demon is dark, light can restrain dark, this should be a great thing."

Zhang Biao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this sentence: "I think so too."

This guy had been hiding it and didn't dare to say it, just because he was worried about being misunderstood.

Team Leader Zhou changed the subject: "But the Sun Priest thing is no small matter, as the team leader, I have an obligation to report to the legion as soon as possible."

He waved his right hand vigorously and ordered, "Attention everyone, return to the sentry camp now!"

"Yes!"

Several warriors responded in unison: "Yes!"

The team leader slapped the back of his armor and said, "Fly back, it will be faster this way."

After saying that.

Only heard a "whoosh" sound.

A stream of air spewed out from the rear of the armor, pushing the team leader five meters high, and quickly swept forward.

Several warriors followed up.

Their control skills were good, although they were in mid-air, they still maintained a neat echelon formation.

After flying a few hundred meters.

An accident happened.

From a withered forest in the distance, a sharp screech suddenly echoed.
