Chapter 95 Arrival at Jinlin City
The group entered Jinlin City. Along the way, there were abandoned vehicles everywhere, covered with rust. The buildings on both sides were also severely damaged. Green plants grew wildly here, and the houses that had not collapsed were covered with plants.
The asphalt road they were walking on was covered with traces left by demons, and the roars of demons could be heard from time to time throughout the city.
Hearing this voice, Bai Tingting, who was beside Lu Xuan, sighed: "I really don't know how desperate the people here were when the disaster broke out here."
Mu Nujiao suddenly squeezed in from the gap between the two. Bai Tingting was not sure what was wrong with her. During this period of time, she would get close to Lu Xuan whenever she had the chance.
It would have been fine if she hadn't confirmed her relationship with Lu Xuan before, but now that she has told Bai Tingting clearly, she didn't expect that the other party would still be like this.
When Lu Xuan saw this situation happen again, he felt helpless. This kind of thing had happened many times during the time he was on the road.
He couldn't help but say: "We are still in the process of training, so we must be careful."
He had absolutely no way to deal with the secret rivalry between the two, and each time he could only make them stop temporarily like this.
The group of people in front completely pretended not to see anything. They didn't know how much dog food these three guys had fed them along the way, and they were no longer surprised.
After hearing this, Mu Nujiao stopped accusing Bai Tingting of her behavior.
Bai Tingting didn't care at all. In her eyes, Mu Nujiao was the one who got ahead of the game, so of course she was unwilling to give up.
As the group continued to go deeper into Jinlin City, Zheng Bingxiao looked at the dilapidated scene around him and asked, "Where should we set up our base? Is it more suitable?"
Lu Xuan slowly said, "A relatively high place will give us a wider field of vision, which will make it easier for us to observe and find any problems in time."
Although this place is not very dangerous for him, it may not be the case for others.
Lu Zhenghe hurriedly said: "In the building, it would be best if the rooftop could be connected to other buildings to facilitate evacuation."
When everyone heard this, they expressed their agreement.
Song Xia took out the map of Jinlin City and began to look for a suitable location on it.
"What do you think of that building?"
Mo Fan heard the discussion at the front and pointed to a gray building in the distance. The building stood out from the ruins and was relatively intact.
Song Xia looked towards the building and compared it with the map in her hand. "This place was the former municipal building of Jinlin City. Mo Fan is really good at choosing a place."
When Lu Xuan heard the word "Municipal Building", he knew that the pseudo-terrorist was there. He glanced at Mo Fan in front of him and saw that the other party really knew how to choose a place.
The group passed through several residential areas and gradually approached the towering municipal building.
When he arrived in front of the long-abandoned municipal building, Lu Xuan saw a large number of black branches and vines appearing on the walls of the entire building, all of which had penetrated into the building.
Qingqing, who was familiar with demon lore, wondered, "There's something wrong with this building. These vines are growing with their backs to the sun. It's simply unbelievable and goes against common sense."
As a plant-based mage, Mu Nujiao felt something was unusual after careful observation, but she couldn't tell what was wrong at the moment.
Lu Zhenghe glanced at the interior of the building and said, "What's so strange about that? Let's leave one person behind to handle it, and the rest of us can go in and take a look and we'll know."
The others, however, had no reaction to Lu Zhenghe's proposal, nor any intention of taking any action. They all looked at Lu Xuan, hoping that he could come up with an idea.
Mu Nujiao walked to Lu Xuan and asked softly, "Lu Xuan, did you see anything? Those plants give me a very strange feeling." She knew that Lu Xuan had spent a long time in the wild and had hunted many monsters, so he might know something.
"Your perception is correct. This black vine is a plant-type demon - a pseudo-demon." Lu Xuan explained slowly.
"Pseudo Terror!"
Upon hearing this, Mu Nujiao and Qingqing couldn't help but exclaim. As plant-based magicians, they had some understanding of the horror of the pseudo-demon.
Mo Fan was confused and said, "Fake Terror, what kind of demon is this?"
Bai Tingting stepped forward to explain: "A pseudo-terror demon is a kind of demon with a higher bloodline. It is afraid of sunlight and is mostly found in dark places. If it is an adult pseudo-terror demon, except for Lu Xuan, the rest of us probably can't be its opponent."
When the remaining people heard this, they became a little nervous and subconsciously moved back.
Song Xia suggested: "Since we know there is danger, let's quickly change places."
Lu Xuan looked at the black vines that were wrapped around the lower level of the entire building and said calmly, "It's just an advanced warrior. There's no need to make such a fuss."
The people in the Imperial Capital Academy were all puzzled. He was just an advanced general? Was he really that Versailles?
Every one of them would have found it difficult to escape after encountering such a terrifying monster, but Lu Xuan made it sound so easy. How could he be so Versailles?
Lu Xuan didn't care about the doubts in their eyes. A wisp of purple-black flame appeared at his fingertips, and the temperature around him rose instantly.
He casually threw the Three Thousand Flames at the black vines sticking out of the wall in front of him.
Before the flames subsided, the motionless black vines on the entire municipal building seemed to come alive, wriggling wildly on the walls, and the roots that were originally deeply rooted in the building continued to pull out.
On one floor above the municipal building, a ferocious huge head similar to a wooden stake emerged from the wall. Its huge black mouth was open and it was chewing non-stop. The constantly moving black vines looked like its blood vessels.
"Fuck, is it so scary?"
Zhao Manyan couldn't help but feel relieved. Fortunately, Lu Xuan reminded him not to go in, otherwise the food would have been delivered to his door.
Qingqing's face turned pale. "I see. This thing disguises itself and waits for its prey to come to it."
"Don't just stand there, let's go quickly and keep some distance."
Although Lu Xuan's flames were extremely terrifying, Lu Zhenghe would not place all his hopes on him.
At this time, the purple-black flame fell on a moving black-skinned vine. As soon as the two came into contact, the flame seemed to have touched an accelerant, and the fire instantly increased several times.
The black vines that had come into contact with the flames were instantly turned into ashes, and the flames burned all the way up along the vines.
The pseudo-demon felt the pain in its body and wailed in agony, but as a plant-based demon, it moved other black vines over and tried to slap out the flames.
But when the other black vines touched the purple-black flames, not only did they fail to extinguish them, but they were also stained by them.
There was only one spot on the pseudo-demon's body that was burning. After it tried to save itself, it successfully added a few more and burned together.
