Chapter 178.

Somewhere deep in the mountains.

Fiery fires were burning, the neighborhood was all overlapping large mountains, originally covered by woods, but now covered by fires, the range of the mountain fires was second only to the southwestern region, with several high mountains stretching out around them, all of them were burning.

And somewhere on the mountain.

Around the pool of blood that was boiling with a gurgle, dozens of fae were absorbing energy, their alien energy raging.

After completing the sacrifice, the fae did not disperse.

“Priest, is it really impossible to go out recently? We’ve already run out of the living people we’ve captured, and if it continues like this, the blood pool will dry up.” Someone frowned.

The white-bearded old man sat next to the blood pool, his face expressionless.

Upon hearing this, he raised his head, his voice cold, “Then we don’t need human blood for the time being, just stay next to the energy source to enhance just the same, the strongholds have been terminated several times, don’t underestimate the humans.”

The man shut up, not daring to say anything else.

The priest let out a breath, but his eyes were vaguely worried.

The humans had discovered their actions and had officially struck out, they were hidden inside the stretches of mountains and covered by flames, they were also hiding underground, as long as they were more careful, the humans shouldn’t find out, right?

However, the little food they had hoarded wouldn’t last long ……

Should we contact the Lord?

Just as he thought so, there was a sudden loud bang and the ground shook.

The priest was stunned and stood up violently.

The other fae were also in a panic.

There was another loud bang, and the tunnel they had dug out began to collapse.

Some fae went out to check.

The priest frowned and suddenly reacted, “No! Don’t go out!!!”

However, it was too late.

A fae had already ventured out and was locked by the humans.

“There is a fae infestation in the fire sea area, lock the location and prepare to attack!”

The first two vibrations were just tests.

They tested every piece of the mountains where the fires stretched out.

And when the fae ventured out, that would immediately be locked down for a kill!

“-Report! Fae in the fire sea area annihilated, twelve pieces of debris collected.” The fae team reported upwards.

A certain northeastern corner.

“Priest, several strongholds have been destroyed, what should we do?” The fae was a bit uneasy.

The priest grimaced and didn’t say anything.

Someone said, “What are you afraid of? We still have high-ranked companions, and those human fae are all low ranked, so they can’t do anything to us! Furthermore, aren’t they in the south and southwest? We’re in the far northeast, we won’t be found.”

Thinking about that guy under the blood pool, the priest did relax a bit.

But soon, he frowned again, “Humans also have high-level aberrations.”

“That woman called Sheng An led the Special Intelligence Division to the southwest, there’s no way she can interfere with us in the northeast.” That fae was still confident.

The priest was about to open his mouth, when suddenly, someone barged in-

“Priest, a few fae have come outside!”

A few fae dare to come here?

The priest frowned and immediately led the fae out.

However, his face changed drastically when his eyes met the people outside.

A bat shifter landed on the ground.

The two people on his back jumped down, and the leader, a woman, coldly said:

“Special Intelligence Service, Autumn Rain.”

There was indeed a fae stronghold near E2.

Wu Buye carried Sheng An and Long Tianyu, Lai Wan Yun, and then took these fae in one fell swoop.

They did possess strength that exceeded most fae, and there were even fae that had already reached three stars, not the fae under the blood pool, but those that had reached three stars with the help of the blood pool.

Lai Wan Yun wiped off the blood on her face and let out a breath, “It’s really incomparably fortunate that the xenos appeared in advance, and is also several times stronger than in the previous life, otherwise solving the fae wouldn’t be so easy.”

Long Tianyu agrees, “It is indeed a good thing, this life is really too much better than the previous life.”

Wu Buye peeked ahead at Sheng An who used paper to wipe off the blood on his knife and gulped.

You have to know that ……

The research institute had speculated that they were “Sheng Chosen People”.

Sheng An didn’t care about them and lifted his foot, “Let’s go, it’s time to solve another batch of fae.”

The priests were almost at the new stronghold.

Based on their direction, Hao Jingye had already deduced their destination.

Exhausted!

The prisoner was exhausted, and the Priest could feel that even the tough dork was about to lose his support.

He took a deep breath, “There’s a gathering place up ahead, we just need to make it to-”

“Bang!”

“Bang bang!”

Prisoner jerked his head up, “What’s that sound?!”

The Priest looked ahead in disbelief, and there, in the sky, was a fighter jet, and a large bird carrying several people, as if ready to harvest lives at any moment.

What a familiar scene.

The priest gulped, “This place …… was also discovered by the Special Intelligence Service.”

He looked at this scene in front of him with eyes wide with hatred, the last stronghold at least drank a few mouthfuls of blood, and this stronghold was already gone before he even got close.

How’d it go so fast?

The dork froze, “Then what do we do?”

The priest gritted his teeth, “Go!”

Two days later.

He rushed to a new gathering place that was so hidden that if he hadn’t known about it in advance, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to find it.

The priest’s voice was weak, “This place …… is safe and won’t be discovered ……”

Prisoner dragged his last breath, puzzled: “Where is the entrance?”

The priest shook his head, he didn’t know either.

However-…

They should be coming to get him.

At that moment, a fae suddenly emerged from the ground.

The priest’s eyes lit up and he struck up a conversation, “Great, finally found you guys, take us in, we need blood and-”

The fae interrupts him, impatient, “The priest told you to hurry, the winds are blowing, the humans have cleared out so many gatherings, you’re destroying them wherever you go, it’s bad luck, get away from us!”

Priest: “What?”

Fae: “We’re evacuating too, it’s not safe anywhere.”

Priest: “Where are you evacuating to? This is already the most secluded place!”

This stronghold was indeed very secretive.

Fae: “The priest told us all to spread out, not to gather for the time being, to hide inside the crowd if we can, and if there’s no way to hide in the crowd, we’ll just find a random place to hide, and come out again when the wind passes.”

Priest: “????”

What kind of joke is this?

They are fae ah, humans are their prey, where are they forced by food to not dare to venture out?

And hide?

–Who’s the fae and who’s the predator?

However, the fae dug into the earth after saying that, clearly not ready to take over the unlucky them.

The prisoner and the woman could no longer hold on and sat paralyzed on the ground.

The priest was also filled with despair.

Only the dullard was still standing firmly, as if he possessed the courage to go forward and was not afraid in the slightest.

The priest looked at him and suddenly had spirit.

If this dumbass wasn’t afraid, what were they afraid of? How could they give up like that?

They were fae!

It was the fae that treated humans as food!

The priest gritted his teeth, “Let’s go, I still know the last stronghold, it’s right at the southwestern border, let’s rush over there.”

The prisoner and the woman were paralyzed, not wanting to move.

Nerd Gourd, on the other hand, was giddy, “Good!”

“Dull Gourd hasn’t even given up, are you guys going to admit defeat? Aren’t you afraid that you won’t fulfill the Lord’s mission and be punished by the Lord?” The priest coldly threatened.

The prisoner and the woman shivered and hurriedly climbed up, continuing their journey.

This was the last stronghold and the last hope.

They dragged their tired bodies to hurry on, not realizing that –

After they left, this deepest hidden stronghold was also given a clean sweep by Sheng An.

At the southwestern border.

They finally arrived, and the prisoner was already dying.

If Sheng An hadn’t seen their faces, Prisoner and the woman would have wanted to hide inside the crowd and not venture out for a while.

The Priest was a complete drag.

Luckily, Dull Melon never gave up on him and always carried him.

The countless grudges the Priest had previously held against Dull Melon had all disappeared, and now the one he trusted the most was Dull Melon.

This stronghold was their last hope.

Then, the priest realized–

“What? All ran away?!”

The priest of this stronghold had just collected the fragments, sniffing, she looked at him, “You’re afraid you don’t know how heavy the losses of the major strongholds were this time, all the fragments were collected by the Special Intelligence Service, and those people can always find every stronghold, and then wipe them all out in one fell swoop.”

She shook her head, “I’ve already told the Fae to hide individually, and I’m taking the shards with me to hide them first.”

Old Priestess: “What about Godfall? No more completing the Lord’s task?”

Priestess gritted her teeth, “Let’s avoid the wind for a while, right now it’s a purge of whoever pops up, the human’s purge is very scary, and the Lord has not responded to it, so the God Surrender mission will be put on hold for a while, and then continue after the wind has passed.”

Old Priestess: “……”

Priestess: “I’ll leave first, if you want to stay here, keep it to yourself.”

The woman took the shards and was about to leave.

Nerd suddenly spoke up, “Wait first.”
