Chapter 72
SJ area refuge base.

Monitoring headquarters.

On the map of the SJ area displayed on the huge screen in the center, the most conspicuous marks are the seven crimson areas, which are defined as extremely dangerous due to the existence of the bishop of the abyss. These areas are temporarily avoided and restricted, and the current stage is mainly the evacuation of civilians.

In addition to the seven dark red 'critically dangerous' areas, there are nearly a hundred scattered 'high risk' areas of various sizes, marked in light red. Occasionally, the light red areas return to normal colors, and some originally normal areas change color. into light red.

"The high-risk area No. 78 is in danger."

A monitor spoke.

The surveillance adjutant who walked by said: "What's the situation nearby, how are the injured, and whether first aid is needed."

"The area is seriously damaged, the power supply is cut off, there is no close-range monitoring, but there is long-distance monitoring, but the situation there is not very clear..."

As the monitor spoke, he called up nearby surveillance.

This is a surveillance projected from a building that is far away. What the surveillance can see is a ruins that spread for a block. The dust has not yet dissipated. The picture is very blurry, and only a few figures can be vaguely captured.

"Well, as long as the danger is eliminated, if there are more than one activist, they can also give first aid on their own."

The surveillance adjutant nodded.

Just when he was about to signal to switch to other screens, his eyes suddenly stopped and he immediately turned to look at the lower right corner. There was an independent data with only one piece of data content, abyss breath concentration.

The current concentration value is 7 points.

It is impossible to accurately show the rank and strength of monsters only through the monitoring screen. Therefore, the monitoring of most areas in the city has the function of evaluating the concentration of abyssal breath, and judge the degree of danger in turn.

In the past, many sewer sweeps every year, a large number of warriors gathered and carried similar equipment to conduct blanket searches. This equipment is very sensitive to high concentrations of abyssal aura, so slightly stronger cult members and mutant creatures cannot hide at all. , are often picked out and cleaned up, and only the weak ones will slip through the net.

This is one of the reasons why there has not been a single fourth-level monster in the entire Songjiang City area so far, and even there are only seven priests.

This equipment that can capture the breath of the abyss comes from Professor Lu Zhou of the Huaxia Alliance Academy of Sciences. Although the other party is not a warrior, but a pure scientific researcher, he has developed a number of technologies, including void equipment and various biotechnology medicinal liquids. The contribution that came here is even far more than that of some high-ranking masters.

now.

On the screen, the data capturing the concentration of abyssal breath suddenly rose from 7 o'clock to 8 o'clock.

Then it jumped to 9 o'clock.

"Wait, don't cut the screen first."

The surveillance adjutant's heart skipped a beat, feeling an ominous premonition, and he immediately spoke in a deep voice.

The concentration of abyssal breath within 10 points is extremely low-risk, and there are usually only a few first-order mutant creatures. When this area was in a 'high-risk' state before, the concentration of abyssal breath reached more than 300 points.

The beating of these points now seems to be just a very ordinary fluctuation.

The monitor was a little strange for a while, but he still obeyed the instructions and stopped the screen within the current monitoring range, but soon his face also changed, because the data in the lower right corner not only did not stop, but changed faster and faster !

10 points.

15 points.

20 points.

……

In just ten seconds, the concentration of the abyssal breath rose like a rocket. In an instant, it had already crossed the high-risk line of 300 points, and was even rising further!
boom!
The deputy director of surveillance slapped his hand on the table with a very ugly look on his face: "Notify all personnel in the area to evacuate quickly, and the surrounding area has entered the highest level of security."

This drastic change in the abyssal breath in a very short period of time is not something that ordinary believers and some mutant creatures can produce. There is no doubt that this is... the bishop of the abyss!
The existence above the believers is far stronger than the third-order mutant creatures. It is almost unmatched by warriors at the beginning of their careers. Only those above the middle of their careers can suppress them.

In the past, if bishops dared to drill out of the city, they would not even be greeted by the middle-level professional masters, but the thunderous blows of the masters of the high-level career. Even the mid-career troops are not strong enough to cover every area.

It was precisely because of the lack of power within the city that these priests, who had been hiding deep in the sewers and even underground rivers, dared to take advantage of the void.

"How soon can I get to the nearest mid-career?"

The deputy director of surveillance asked with a stern face.

The monitor also looked a little depressed and said: "If you can free your hands, it should take three to four minutes at the fastest."

Three 4 minutes.

It seems very short, but an unlimited abyss bishop, the casualties that can be caused in three to four minutes are far beyond the comparison of ordinary believers and mutant creatures. Right now, we can only hope that the warriors in that area can escape quickly Some.

……

in the ruins.

Xu Yang turned his gaze to the ground, and only paused for about two seconds before his expression changed.

"Something's wrong, let's go!"

He shouted lowly at Su Xiao and Li Yumeng, and without caring about anything, he held the 'Starlight' in one hand in his right hand. While taking a step forward, he picked up Li Yumeng's whole body with his left hand, and directly resisted without caring about his image. on the shoulder.

It's really heavy.

It's not about the extremely sharp contrast between her and Su Xiao's chest, but as a professional warrior, her physique has undergone transformation, her muscles and bones are much denser than ordinary people's, and her slim body is actually quite heavy.

Fortunately, Xu Yang had expected this. He had fought against Gao Yuan before and knew that the weight of professional warriors was different from that of amateur warriors. However, his speed was still quite limited this time, and he could not easily jump onto the billboard. He could only follow the path. Running along the street, retreating towards the east.

Su Xiao was slightly stunned, and subconsciously followed Xu Yang, but before she could ask, she also noticed something, and when she looked back abruptly, a look of shock appeared in her eyes.

The two people running at full speed have already crossed half a street in just six or seven seconds, opening a distance of two to 300 meters.

But the palpitating sense of crisis did not diminish at all, and even became heavier and heavier. Su Xiao's gaze gradually changed from looking backwards to looking down, and her pupils continued to shrink.

There is something underground!
And the speed is very fast, even on a rampage, you can almost see it chasing from the ground, and the series of reactions produced cause cracks to burst on the bluestone road above.

Li Yumeng was held on Xu Yang's shoulders at this time, and she had no image at all, but she didn't care about these things. Compared with Su Xiao and Xu Yang who were running away at full speed, she could see the changes in the ground more clearly when she lay on Xu Yang's body.

It was as if a swimming dragon was chasing him all the way from where he had been before.

finally.

boom! ! !
The ground within a radius of tens of meters suddenly cracked, and countless gravels were scattered everywhere.

Both Xu Yang and Su Xiao were forced to jump up, and fell more than ten meters away. When they looked in the center, they saw a slender figure, who seemed to be stretching his limbs, slowly walking out from the broken ground.

His face was like a skeleton, and there were also burning will-o'-the-wisps in his eyes, but the will-o'-the-wisp was no longer dim green, but glowed with a bright red. He was wearing a blood-colored cloak. If you look carefully, the cloak It seems to be made of bright blood, with all kinds of strange patterns on it, as if it is flowing.

grunt.

Xu Yang clearly heard the sound of Li Yumeng swallowing from his shoulder. It was obvious that Li Yumeng had recognized the identity of the other party. Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, he could guess it at this time.

Priest of the Abyss!

An existence above believers.

If Abyss believers, as long as they are ordinary people who have been eroded by the abyss for a long time and have absorbed and swallowed enough abyss, it is possible to form them, and they do not necessarily have to go through sacrifices, then the abyss priests must go through sacrifices. This is the process of sacrifice, and the weight of the sacrifice will not be low, at least starting with "hundred people".

Only those who have gone through the process of sacrifice and endured the baptism of the rich aura of the abyss can become the priest of the religious order.

The red will-o'-the-wisps in the pupils and the bloody clothes on his body are the marks of the bishop.

"Sure enough, my perception is not wrong."

The blood-clothed bishop smiled slightly, ignored Xu Yang and Li Yumeng who was carrying him, and only turned his gaze to Su Xiao, the burning will-o'-the-wisp floated slightly, as if admiring something.

Xu Yang glanced at Su Xiao, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, but at this moment he didn't have time to think about anything, it just so happened that Su Xiao was also looking at him, and the two of them understood each other's meaning as soon as their eyes met.

Then the next moment.

Swish!
The two of them moved in unison, stepped back, and escaped tens of meters at once.

Neither Su Xiao nor Xu Yang had any intention of confronting the Archbishop of the Abyss head-on. Xu Yang had never fought before and had no judgment on the strength of the Archbishop. All information was unknown. However, Su Xiao knew the strength of the Archbishop and was in the early stages of his career. Unable to fight.

however.

After the two quickly retreated nearly a hundred meters, they stopped in unison.

Because the bishop of the abyss wearing a blood-colored robe unexpectedly crossed in front of them at some point, and was standing quietly in the middle of the road: "I have been hiding my breath, and your rescue will take at least a few minutes to arrive. Do unnecessary struggle, don't be afraid, I will not kill you, because you are all high-quality sacrifices, especially...you."

The blood-clothed bishop looked at Xu Yang and Li Yumeng, and finally fell on Su Xiao.

Su Xiao?

Xu Yang glanced at Su Xiao from the corner of his eye. He could feel that the bishop in front of him attached great importance to Su Xiao, but it was meaningless to think about the reason at this moment. What was more important was how to deal with the situation in front of him.

If Su Xiao's importance is high enough in the other party's eyes, then if he loses Li Yumeng and is restrained by Su Xiao, he should still have a chance to escape, but... this is not a game.
