Chapter 69 - 69: Caught you
The fog continued to advance, and the figure within the fog became clearer and clearer.
At this moment, wuzu shouted.
strong men, go around and protect the evil spirits. Don’t let them come in. The rest of you, kneel and pray with me.
Under wuzu’s orders, Lu Chen led a group of people to defend the perimeter. Wuzu, on the other hand, led the women and children in the village to kneel and pray.
At the same time, he also used a special torch to light the totem pole.
That’s right, he directly ignited the totem pillar that contained the ancestor’s soul.
As the flame ignited, a wisp of fire appeared at the top of the totem pole.
The fire did not look bright, but it gave people a sense of security.
Following the prayers of the clansmen beside him, the sounds of the clansmen hunting and celebrating could be heard from the flames.
that sound … Could it be that the souls of the barbarians really exist in the totem pillars? ‘
The voice from the totem gave Lu Chen an idea.
However, now was not the time to investigate.
Lu Chen looked around and realized that the effect of the burning of the totem pillars was still obvious.
After the voice from the totem pole rang out, the black mist that was spreading out finally stopped.
However, although the mist had stopped, it did not have the slightest intention of retreating.
At the same time, the shadow in the mist was also solidifying. Soon, a figure completely solidified and rushed out of the fog.
“Chi la! ”
As soon as the figure rushed into the area illuminated by the totem flame, a sizzling sound came from its body. It was the sound of the fog melting.
When the mist disappeared, Lu Chen could clearly feel that the Barbarian man’s voice in the flames of the totem pillar in the village was a little louder.
when the totem is on fire, it can suppress or even eliminate evil. This must be the barbarian’s trump card. But, I don’t think the totem can be used more than a few times.
The thought came to Lu Chen’s mind, but he didn’t stop. Instead, he rushed toward the shadow.
There were also barbarians standing guard in the direction where the black shadow had appeared.
The barbarians who were guarding the place weren’t scared off because their clansmen were behind them. They even had their own wives and children. Instead, they held their wooden Spears and charged forward fiercely.
“Die!”
In an instant, a dozen Spears were thrust at the evil, one of which was a barbarian Blood Warrior.
Under their efforts, especially under the light of the totem flame, the evil’s reaction was too slow. Its body was melting away.
Therefore, the evil was destroyed before Lu Chen could even approach it.
And this made Lu Chen heave a sigh of relief.
fortunately, not all of the barbarians here are useless. After all, they have lived here for a long time. They have some skills in dealing with the evils. If not for the Shadow Realm, the village would not have been destroyed.
The barbarians ‘strong bodies finally helped to relieve some of Lu Chen’s pressure.
At the same time, Lu Chen also noticed that the speed of the burning was not fast.
“It seems like we can survive today.”
Such a thought appeared in Lu Chen’s mind, but as soon as it appeared, music came from the mist.
The music in the fog was a very common casual musical instrument in the countryside. There were drums, gongs, horns, and flutes.
The combination of these things wasn’t very beautiful, but the sound of it gave Lu Chen a sense of relief.
Especially the sound of the flute, it was like it was ringing in Lu Chen’s heart. It made him feel like he was at home. With that sense of security, Lu Chen’s consciousness wanted to fall asleep.
However, at the next moment, the sound of a sword rang in Lu Chen’s mind and woke him up.
“There’s something wrong with that voice. Don’t listen.”
After he woke up, Lu Chen realized that there were almost a hundred people in the square who were trying to stand up.
They looked like they were sleeping, as if they were sleepwalking.
However, it was impossible for hundreds of people to dream-walk at the same time.
The problem in front of him clearly indicated that there was something wrong with the sounds, especially the flute sound.
However, while Lu Chen was able to wake up with the help of his master level swordsmanship, the others didn’t have such strong will.
Among them, the strong men were still okay. Their years of hunting had made them strong-willed. Although they were sleepwalking, many of them just stood up and did not move.
However, the women and children in the tribe didn’t have such a will. Many of them stood up and walked into the fog outside the flames with a relieved smile on their faces.
what should I do? do I have to use the Conqueror’s haki? but I can only use it a few times a day. If I use it now, I’ll be in trouble when I face danger later.
also, the coverage of my domineering aura is still too small. I can’t wake everyone up at all.
Just as Lu Chen was hesitating, roars of killing suddenly came from the center of the totem pillar.
“Battle, battle, battle against bi an!”
“Ha! Ha! Ha!”
“Kill bi an!”
The voice sounded like the final will of the Barbarian Warriors before they died in battle. The collective shouts made Lu Chen’s blood boil.
To Lu Chen, it was just a blood-boiling cry, but to the other barbarians, it was a
life-saving cry.
The Furious roars of the Warriors woke up some of the women. After years of hard living, these women had strong will.
However, there were still some children, especially the orphans, who still had a relieved smile on their faces and were about to walk into the fog.
Compared to adults, children’s willpower was a little weaker.
Fortunately, the adults who had woken up immediately grabbed the children beside them and stopped their actions.
However, at this moment, there were still a few children who walked to the front of the fog. Within the fog, a palm was stretched out and grabbed at those children.
“To save people.”
Before anyone could call out to him, Lu Chen had already rushed forward.
There was a child nearby, and he was about to be caught in the fog.
However, when Lu Chen arrived at the scene, he saw a barbarian who had the kid under control before he arrived.
However, there was a hand in the mist that grabbed at the Barbarian.
Instead of pulling the Barbarian back, Lu Chen reached out his hand and grabbed the hand that was reaching out from the mist.
“Come over here.”
Lu Chen, who had an explosive temper, was ready to drag the evil out of the mist and kill it.
However, Lu Chen’s hand went right through his right hand. He didn’t even touch the hand.
Lu Chen roared and didn’t give up. He pulled back his right hand and reached out his left hand to grab the palm.
The hand in the mist didn’t seem to have any reaction to Lu Chen’s movement. It was still in the grabbing position as if the evil didn’t think that anyone could catch it.
However, Lu Chen’s left hand was special. It was a hand that was infected by the ghost God’s power. It would be a joke if such a hand couldn’t catch a ghost.
Just like that, Lu Chen’s outstretched left hand soon touched the ghost hand that came out of the mist.
But this time, he didn’t miss. The cold sensation entered his senses.
“I’ve caught you. Come out..”
