Pollution throughout the territory

The leaves obscured the sky, and since it was just light at this time, it was even darker here.

The clear stream flows down the river bed composed of gravel, making a roaring sound.

This is a mountain stream with a small space and is surrounded by rocks on three sides. Moss and vines are covering the rocks and climbing up the trees, rendering the surrounding scenery a vibrant green.

But at this moment, the scenery here is completely different.

The plants begin to wither and turn yellow, and the branches, leaves, and roots appear to be rotting, becoming soft, and oozing pus.

The stream also became turbid, and the water inside seemed to flow out of a coal mine, glowing with a faint black color and emitting a disgusting stench.

A series of footprints were clearly visible on the rough soil. Next to the footprints fell the bodies of several birds and reptiles. There were no obvious scars on their surfaces, and all of them had their eyes open, as if they had died suddenly during flight.

There are curls of black smoke floating on these corpses, which mix with the miasma of the forest and turn into a light gray evil mist. Wherever the evil mist drifts, other plants cannot escape the same fate.

Soon, the always terrifying tentacles suddenly appeared, breaking the vines and breaking the silence.

"If I had known earlier, I should have called a helicopter and dropped us here directly. Ah, it stinks! Are these apostles born not to take a shower? Damn it."

The mountains are covered with plants and rugged, making it difficult to walk where there are no roads.

Although it was more convenient to use tentacles to open the way, Xia Ren was still a little embarrassed along the way, his calves were covered with mud, and his clothes were scratched a few times by branches.

He looked back at Jiufeng and found that the two of them were obviously walking the same path, but there was no dust on the other side.

Jiufeng was not in the mood to chat with him and looked in a certain direction.

It was a place covered by vines, and there was nothing unusual about it from the outside.

Jiufeng walked over directly and pulled the vines away.

Suddenly, a dark hole appeared in their sight.

Jiufeng said in a cold voice: "Get out!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a roar came from the cave, and a black shadow flashed past, trying to attack Jiufeng, but the latter was already prepared and was faster. She raised her right leg and twisted her waist slightly, Kick the opponent aside coolly and neatly.

The black shadow fell into the stream, rolled several times, hit the rocks on the other side, and then stopped.

Jiufeng raised her arms, palms upward, and with a "chi" sound, bright red flames ignited in the air above her palms, illuminating the entire mountain stream.

At the same time, the temperature in the mountain stream was also rising. The flames dispersed the miasma of the forest, and the surrounding scenery began to become clearer.

The flames also purified the surrounding air, and the stench was evaporated and disappeared. Under the light of the fire, the plants in the mountain stream also stopped decaying, and the stream was returning to clarity at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Pollution is being dispelled.

Looking at this fantasy scene, Xia Ren couldn't help but be amazed.

"Is this magic?"

This was the first time he saw Jiufeng take action with his own eyes. In the past, he only knew that she was very powerful, but he didn't expect that the gardener could also use magic.

In my memory, the first time I saw magic was when I was attacked by Qiuqiu people and Baiyaki.

"This is not magic, it is magic."

Jiu Feng explained without looking back.

The flame fell off her palm, slowly flew into the air, and then stopped.

"Immortal magic?"

Xia Ren heard a new term again.

Although he really wanted to ask what the magic was, he was currently in the middle of a battle and the apostles had not yet been solved, so it was not the time for small talk.

On the other side of the stream, the black shadow had climbed out of the smashed rocks.

"Cough...cough!"

The bartender's body was covered with a layer of sticky dirt, just like the amniotic membrane that wraps the body of a mammal when it is just born. It is also covered with a layer of blood vessel-like tissue that is pulsing regularly.

One of his arms was mutilated, and the fracture of his shoulder was also wrapped in mucous membrane, but the swollen and pus-filled muscles and blackened bones could still be seen inside. The injury seemed to be very serious.

Xia Ren took out the crowbar, walked in front of Jiufeng in two or three steps, squinted at the bartender, and said, "Hey, isn't this an apostle? I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so embarrassed?"

What responded to him was a low and short roar, but the pronunciation method was extremely weird, like a metal object hitting wood.

To Xia Ren and his friends' ears, it sounded like "Ghost!" in human language.

"You still dare to hurt me?"

Xia Ren bared his teeth at the bartender, with an expression that said you're done for.

He weighed the crowbar in his hand and gestured to step forward, but after waiting for a long time, his steps never moved.

Turning around: "Enter Fengfeng! Let him know how powerful you are!"

Jiufeng glanced at him with disdain and did not move: "Cowardly."

Xia Ren looked at the bartender who might pounce on him at any time, then silently retreated behind Jiufeng, without any embarrassment on his face, and said, "You know me, I'm so delicate, I can't beat him."

Then you just went to the front to surf.

Jiufeng wanted to say this, but didn't say it.

She observed the apostle intently and said, "There is something wrong with his state."

Xia Ren also looked over and found that he didn't notice anything wrong. In addition to anger, there was only madness in the other person's eyes.

etc.

He felt as if he had overlooked something.

Jiufeng clenched his fists, took out a red ribbon from somewhere, put his hands behind his back, tied his hair, and said, "Normally, apostles are also rational."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden explosion in the mountain stream, and the apostle among the rubble had disappeared.

"careful!"

Jiufeng suddenly turned around, issued a reminder, and at the same time punched Xia Ren on the head.

A strong sense of crisis suddenly arose in Xia Ren's heart, and the hair on his body stood up.

Although he didn't understand why Jiufeng suddenly hit him, he also knew that this punch was definitely unbearable for him now. If he was hit, he might become a headless horseman.

The most terrible thing is that he also felt strong pressure on his back. Without even thinking about it, he knew that the bartender must have sneaked around and attacked.

Although squatting can avoid Jiufeng's fist, it cannot completely avoid the apostle's attack. However, if he dodges to the side, his body's speed cannot keep up, and the fist has already reached his eyes.

In the critical situation of being attacked from both sides, he reacted almost subconsciously. His tentacles instantly stretched out, wrapped around the tree trunk above his head, and pulled his entire body up.

"Bang——"

As soon as the body left the spot, there was a dull crashing sound under the feet, and at the same time, a strong wind blew, raging in the mountain stream, blowing down large leaves.

Xia Ren hung in the air, looking down with lingering fear.

If he hadn't reacted in time just now, he would have been attacked from both sides by the apostle and the gardener.

The dull sound of impact kept coming, and in the mountain stream, two afterimages were fighting fiercely at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.

The water splashed, gravel flew, and the leaves were disturbed by the strong wind and fell one after another. The scene was extremely chaotic.

This lasted for about five seconds and then stopped abruptly.

Jiufeng's hair was a little messy, and the ribbon originally used to tie her hair slipped a little.

She grabbed the bartender's throat with one hand and pressed him to the ground, unable to move.
