But this time, he struck at nothing.
After the mummy crumbled into a pile of yellow sand, it didn’t reconstitute itself.
Fei Xiao was stunned. What’s going on?
Could it be that my luck is good, and I’ve slashed the one that kept these mummies immortal?
Fei Xiao immediately pounced at the nearest mummy.
His knife chopped off its head, and its body immediately broke into sand.
Seeing it didn’t regenerate, Fei Xiao burst into laughter, turned to tell Lin Baici but saw him standing beside a damaged mummy, crushing its chest with one foot.
As the mummified corpse disintegrated into powder, the other mummies attacking the group suddenly exploded one by one, instantly dead.
Fei Xiao’s face was a mix of embarrassment and relief. It turned out to be Lin Baici’s doing. It was fortunate that he hadn’t bragged about taking care of the mummies himself, or he would have made a fool of himself.
Immediately, Fei Xiao was struck with shock.
Was it just good luck on Lin Baici’s part? Or did he figure it out through keen observation?
If it were the latter,
That would be amazing!
Fei Xiao suddenly realized why Xia Hongmian offered this young man a Special Genius Recruitment Contract.
Wu Zhaokun charged up the sand dune but didn’t see a single mummy.
"Where are the monsters?"
Wu Zhaokun frowned. Why hadn’t they reformed?
"Obviously, we killed them all!"
Fang Tianhua didn’t like Wu Zhaokun much because he used to think of himself as a genius until he met Wu Zhaokun, who gave him a sound beating, leaving him in a slump for a long time.
Wu Zhaokun’s mouth was just as sharp, blocking Fang Tianhua’s words and leaving him feeling suffocated inside.
Because the implicit message was pretty clear: it wasn’t your doing, so why are you proud?
Fang Tianhua snorted coldly.
Fei Xiao, hearing this, was completely stunned. Don’t talk nonsense. If the truth came out, it would be too embarrassing for him.
"How long have you been in this desert? Have you found anything?"
Fei Xiao asked, changing the subject.
Wu Zhaokun ignored him and instead fixed his gaze on the Golden Scorpion Queen, leaping towards her without a trace of fear, excited to attack: "Ming Shu, let’s combine our attacks!"
Every monster must be killed!
But Wu Zhaokun had barely sprinted a few steps when a bronze sword came flying at an angle toward him, slashing past the front of him and forcing him to a stop.
"What are you doing?"
Wu Zhaokun glared at Lin Baici.
Lin Baici caught the Dragon Tooth, looking at the young man who looked average but had a powerful air about him and a pair of eyes that bore an intimidating presence.
Lin Baici replied indifferently.
Wu Zhaokun frowned. "What do you mean?"
Could humans really be friends with monsters?
That’s a joke if ever there was one!
Wu Zhaokun questioned.
"Whether Little White is sick, I don’t know, but what I do know is that you are definitely a Nine-Holes Fish. Listen up, ’friend’ means that you can’t harm it!"
Hua Yue Yu was irritated with Wu Zhaokun, and during the sandstorm, the Golden Scorpion Queen had dragged her into a sand hole, for which she was grateful.
Wu Zhaokun cursed, not caring about the female broadcaster, and once again lunged at the Golden Scorpion Queen.
Lin Baici’s expression darkened.
"Wu Zhaokun, stop it!"
Xia Hongyao bellowed.
"Wu Zhaokun, cut it out!"
For Fei Xiao, he thought a living Golden Scorpion Queen was more valuable for research than a dead body!
Through her, it might be possible to understand the ecosystem of God’s Ruins and the forms of life there.
Wu Zhaokun stopped, not because of Fei Xiao’s intervention but because his Divine Grace told him something unknown was watching him from the shadows.
He immediately scanned the area.
Was it Divine Grace? Or Taboo things?
After glancing at Xia Hongyao, Wu Zhaokun turned back to Lin Baici.
Lin Baici’s words were concise.
Wu Zhaokun’s face changed. He came to save these people with a strong sense of superiority. Having not managed to save them, he felt frustrated, which was why he wanted to kill the Scorpion Queen.
After all, it was just a monster; killing it meant nothing.
"Don’t get us wrong, we mean no harm! We came here to help!" This text is hosted at novelFɪre.net
Chen Mingshu was quite rational. Seeing the situation, he quickly interjected and then looked at Fei Xiao and Xia Hongyao: "Director Fei, Director Xia, you know what Wu Zhaokun is like. Be lenient!"
"Does my oppa need your help?"
Kim Myungjin would rather these people clashed with Lin Baici, so that he wouldn’t join the Jiuzhou Security Bureau.
"Wu Zhaokun, we don’t need your help, just go!"
Xia Hongyao knew Wu Zhaokun had always disliked her, thinking she wasn’t fit to be a leader. In the department, the two of them had already clashed several times.
"Heh, that’s a joke. If I’m not mistaken, your mummies over there haven’t been dealt with yet!"
Wu Zhaokun’s face stiffened, and he glanced back.
Indeed, their leader and the others were still fighting monsters.
This showed that Fei Xiao’s group had found the key to killing these creatures earlier.
"Ming Shu, let’s go!"
Wu Zhaokun turned and left.
He wouldn’t ask these people how to kill these monsters completely because he was confident that their third division could do it with their strength.
Chen Mingshu smiled and wasn’t too proud to ask for help: "Colleagues, for the sake of being on the same team, please tell us how to kill these mummies?"
Fei Xiao avoided Chen Mingshu’s gaze.
Don’t look at me, I didn’t do it!
Xia Hongyao looked at Lin Baici, equally curious about how he had figured it out.
