Edge of Pure Land Chapter 12

Chapter 12 The Sound of Sacred Rhythm

Along with the roar, black shadows vaguely appeared in the smoke, their blood-red eyes lit up in the darkness, and the terrifying screams erupted like a sea wave, like the lamentation of a siren!

White Walkers!

 They rushed in!

With the sound of swords piercing the air, the soldiers swarmed forward, seemingly ignoring the elegy of the White Walkers, and quickly launched a ruthless massacre!

 The flash of swords and shadows illuminated the faces of the young men.

 However, there are too many White Walkers, and they are densely packed like a horde of corpses.

After the new recruits were rushed to the front line, they were directly targeted by the White Walkers. They looked like no threat, like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

 “Brother Lu, let me come.”

José's blood boiled, his breathing and heartbeat suddenly changed. His consciousness seemed to soar to the sky, and he felt the trillions of cells in his body boiling and dividing, roaring and releasing power!

Just for a moment, a faint golden light flashed deep in his pupils, and he punched out!

 “Gas consumption!”

With a loud punch, the White Walker's jaw was shattered by him and he flew high into the air!

José almost relied on instinct to draw the sword, and the sword penetrated its throat!

The drone stared at him from the air and made a cold voice: "Recruit He Sai, congratulations on completing the evolution and reaching the first realm, the origin realm!"

"Brother Lu, listen to me, I will protect you, don't get into that rhythm!" After He Sai evolved, he was not happy at all. Instead, he was frightened and turned pale, because he could clearly feel the passage of life force, just like the body It's like being hollowed out.

 This is the price of evolution.

 After evolution, lifespan will also be damaged.

But it can be repaired through the marrow sap of the sacred tree and rejuvenated.

Lu Fuji raised his head in shock. No wonder they were sent directly to the battlefield. It seemed that anyone who had mastered the sacred rhythm would be able to survive here.

 It's just that after Jose evolved, his temples suddenly turned frosty white!

The new recruits rushed forward. They were already very angry and desperate during the seventy-six hours of training. They were stimulated and awakened as soon as they arrived on the battlefield.

Facing those White Walkers, it was a crazy output.

"According to the "Supreme Federation Merit Law", a white ghost of the lowest level is equivalent to ten merit points. This is a reward from life and death, and it is also a reward for protecting peace. Only merit can be exchanged for the resources for your promotion. "

"Remember, the most valuable profession in the new world is that of a soldier. Everyone has different reasons for joining the army, but whether you volunteer or not, you all shoulder the responsibility of protecting the world. You are the guardians of the new era. Remember your Mission and Glory!”

 “Never back down!”

The middle-aged instructor with white hair and beard also heard the report from the drone. In fact, he received the news from his superiors very early and also received the information and materials of the two recruits in advance.

But as the instructor of the Third City Guards, he would naturally not come to pick up the newcomers in person, and would not even bother to send someone to receive them, but he must always keep an eye on them.

 This is the rule of survival here.

 Every recruit who comes to the front line will undergo the first combat assessment.

 This is the perfect time to test your talents.

“Request to connect to the divine intelligence network and analyze Jose's cell division limit.”

 He said into the miniature microphone on his collar.

 In fact, the Holy Akashic Cult has concealed a lot of information on the road of evolution. The most important point is that the marrow of the sacred tree can indeed replenish vitality for the human body that has aged due to the practice of sacred rhythms, but cells that have divided to the limit cannot be saved.

To put it simply, when a person's cells have reached the limit of division, the endangered life can only be saved through the marrow sap of the sacred tree, but it cannot allow him to continue to go further on the road of evolution.

 Hence, the number of cell divisions in the human body has become the only proof of talent.

A very small number of cocoon breakers are extremely talented, and their number of cell divisions can exceed the upper limit, which allows them to withstand the side effects of the sacred rhythm. Therefore, they can go very far on the road of evolution and possess more powerful power. Finally stand at the top of the times.

 And most people's bodies don't support high-load splitting.

 Hence, there is a gap even among high-level talents.

"After analysis, the limit of Jose's human cells is between 45 and 65 rounds, and cannot break through the limits of the human body. If cultivated, it is expected to reach the fifth realm."

　　A cold mechanical sound sounded in the earphones.

The middle-aged instructor's expression changed, and he murmured in a low voice: "A cocoon-breaker who came out of the land of the dead? No wonder he has such a talent. Is he here to grab resources?

He looked at the battlefield in the ruins with a straight face. The new recruits had already started fighting among the white ghosts. Some were good at it, but others were in a hurry.

Even if you volunteer to join the army, you will still be timid when facing the battlefield.

 Ye Gong likes dragons, probably for this reason.

And the number of White Walkers that appeared tonight was exceptionally large, so much that it was obviously abnormal. If Major Yuan hadn't been there, these soldiers would have suffered a lot.

 “There is still one who has not yet awakened.”

 He said to himself: "The deer is not two."

The roar of fireworks drowned out his voice.

José was knocked down by a shriveled White Walker. He rolled on the ground several times before he stopped. His neck hit the tip of the gravel, and bright red blood oozed out, causing burning pain.

 Fortunately, I have a bulletproof helmet and vest.

Although he has evolved, he still lacks combat experience. Just when his throat was about to be torn apart, a broken sword penetrated the White Walker in front of him, and the sword opened the gourd!

Lu Fuji panted and drew his sword, turned around and raised the muzzle of the revolver and fired continuously. His shooting skills were not very accurate, but they could also have a certain deterrent effect. Coupled with his prediction of the movements of the White Walkers, It's possible to hold on for a while without waking up.

 I don't know why, maybe he's not angry and desperate enough.

 I haven't awakened yet.

“Brother Lu, why are you rushing out? It's very dangerous here. Hurry and hide!”

José was worried, there were so many white ghosts that he couldn't even resist.

　　What's more, it's Brother Lu.

"If you want me to be a dragster, you should wait until the next life." Lu Buer helped him up and walked through the ruins filled with bullets. The brothers' uniforms were already stained with thick blood and stinking corpse liquid. But it is no longer possible to avoid the attacks of the White Walkers.

 No, strictly speaking, He Sai is no longer good.

I don't know if it's because of mastering the sacred rhythm. Even if the cocoon breaker is contaminated with corpse liquid, he will still be attacked, and it will even make the White Walkers become even crazier.

Lu Fuji's situation is better, but he is surrounded by White Walkers from all directions. Even if he escapes, he has no place to run unless he finds a place to lie down and wait to die.

 There are too many, the number of White Walkers is unbelievable.

 These ghosts still have silk hanging on their bodies, obviously coming out of cocoons.

 It's like being surrounded by that group of people…

"Wait, by that group of people? Why do I say by that group of people? No, something seems to be wrong. Why do the cocoon breakers mutate in the cocoon? How did they become like this?" Lu Fuji's question I had a splitting headache, and there seemed to be a blank in my memory.

At exactly this moment, a strange ghost rushed forward and grabbed his ankle!

 “Brother Lu, be careful!”

Nowadays, Jose has fully evolved in terms of physical ability and senses. He immediately noticed something was wrong, took out his revolver and shot continuously, smashing the face of the White Walker.

However, the deer's ankles were already pierced by sharp claws. He resisted the pain and turned around, inserting the sword into the back of its neck with his backhand, piercing the cervical vertebrae and killing it completely.

The soldiers here are basically engaged in close combat, and their swordsmanship or knife skills are obviously well-trained. Only the two rookies are still fighting using the most primitive methods.

Of course the reason why the two of them are in a bitter fight is that one of them has not evolved yet.

The brothers moved forward with support. He Sai held a knife in both hands and slashed on the left side. Lu Buer held two revolvers and opened fire to cover him. This was the case when they were bullied by senior children when they were in elementary school. They were beaten. Being together, beating people is also together.

However, bullets simply cannot withstand such consumption, especially in the hands of people with poor marksmanship.

 If it were Officer An, he could do better.

Seeing the bullets running out, Shik Fuji smashed the head of a White Walker with gravel against the scream of a White Walker, and his own shoulder blade was also penetrated, and blood flowed out gurglingly.

 “He Sai, I can't do it anymore, please leave quickly.”

His eyesight turned black for a while, and he was exhausted from losing too much blood.

 More importantly, it's almost the twenty-fourth hour.

 His cancer pain usually occurs at regular intervals every day.

During the training period, it was fine just to stand for a while, but if it happened on the battlefield, it would be really fatal, especially since he didn't get much rest in the past three days.

 Too weak.

 At this time, we can no longer hold our brothers back.

 A White Walker attacked from behind, but was kicked away.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" He Sai picked him up with red eyes and shouted: "I promised my uncle and aunt that I will take good care of you. Just because you don't mention some things doesn't mean that I have forgotten it. . When my family lost money in business, it was your parents who helped advance 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, otherwise my house would have been foreclosed on. I have always felt sorry for you all these years..."

He picked up the two knives fiercely: "After all, that is the money for your medical treatment."

 The blade of the blade split the air and drew arcs in the cold wind.

 The necks of the White Walkers were torn apart, and thick blood spurted out.

　Vertical chop, horizontal sweep, vertical chop, diagonal pick!

 The simplest swordsmanship, with the blessing of power, has amazing lethality.

José was running like a mad bear, trying to find a safe place to rest among the ruins, but everywhere he looked there were White Walkers.

 There is nowhere to escape, no way to retreat.

“Seventy thousand or eighty thousand won't cure my disease, so there's no need to worry about it.”

Lu Fuji held up his revolver and hit a White Walker with difficulty.

Two shots to the chest and one to the head. His marksmanship improved rapidly.

The number of White Walkers that are coming in is increasing instead of decreasing. Who knows where they all come from. It looks more like an organized attack, but this is impossible.

 Because these ghosts have no wisdom.

More and more White Walkers are surrounding them, like a black tide.

 And they are the few rocks in the tide.

 At this point, don't worry about morality, just run to places with a lot of people.

 Only by relying on experienced soldiers can we have a chance to survive.

 “Where did so many White Walkers come from?”

 “Something's wrong, please call for support!”

“Major Haraharu, Instructor Kashiwagi! Requesting support!”

José carried Lu Buer on his back and killed them all the way, only to find that these advanced talents could not withstand the attacks of the White Walkers and were forced to retreat. For a moment, he did not know what to do.

However, at this moment, the earth shook violently.

 A huge black shadow suddenly rushed over.

The black shadow that rushed towards them knocked them both over, and then hit them **** the broken stone wall, making them dizzy.

“The number of White Walkers tonight exceeds expectations, and the mission level has been increased!”

 The drone made a cold notification sound.

That is an extraordinarily strong white ghost.

The muscles are knotted and the face is ferocious.

 Obviously this is an outlier among the White Walkers!

José was directly penetrated by a steel bar in his lower abdomen. The process was so fast that he did not even react. But when he lowered his head, he saw blood spreading.

 “José!”

 Lu Buer was dizzy, rolled up and crawled to the ground, and was extremely anxious.

Because he saw the extraordinarily strong White Walker running towards him. It was about two meters tall and weighed at least 150 kilograms. It was like a heavy tank, even its own kind. He was trampled under its feet and crushed to death on the spot.

 And the target of this monster is clearly He Sai who cannot escape!

 “Brother Lu, I might not be able to **** survive either.”

José's voice became extremely hoarse, and he struggled to get up. The steel bar separated from his body inch by inch, but the severe pain caused him to lose strength on the spot.

You can only watch the strong white ghost knocking through the rubble and rushing towards him like a wild beast.

In such an emergency, why couldn't the instructor take action?

 What about the promised novice protection period?

 “If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first.”

　José raised his **** face: "From now on, you will be the only orphan in this world."

“Fuck, if we want to be orphans, let's be orphans together. No one can run away.” Lu Buer was completely angry when he heard this. He was a dying man and had no hope.

 He does want to live, but he doesn't want to kill his best friend.

If it weren't for Lu Bu'er, who was a dragster, He Sai would not have been in a desperate situation.

 He hated being treated as a troll, but he ended up being a troll in the end.

 Death is not terrible.

 But he didn't want to die in such a miserable way.

  Anger and despair fill my mind.

 Finally, the sacred rhythm began to echo in his mind.

Lu Fuji's eyes were completely dark, and the severe pain was as if thousands of steel needles had penetrated into his brain. Every inch of tissue in his body was in pain, and the whole world seemed to have turned into hell.

 And he is a lonely and suffering ghost in hell.

Time is up.

 Cancer pain once again caught up with him on time like a devil.

 He fell to the ground, convulsing violently.

  Just like countless times in the past.

 Like a nightmare, like a curse.

 Only this time, he had other options.

 That's evolution.

At this moment, the depths of Lu Fuji's eyes glowed with an angry golden color. The sacred rhythm finally appeared on his body, and the frequency of his breathing and heartbeat suddenly changed.

 Evolution...begins!

But under the torment of cancer pain, he curled up in pain, twitched and rolled.

 “Why hasn't it evolved yet?”

At the critical moment, the middle-aged instructor saw that something was wrong and finally pulled out the sword from his waist. If the recruit died under his eyes, he would be responsible.

At this moment, he suddenly stopped.

 As if responding to Lu Fuji's anger.

His fused God Seed stirred up, and the rhythm of the sacred rhythm changed strangely. The burning ancient tree reappeared in the depths of his consciousness, and the black embers danced like graceful devils, as if singing the elegy of doomsday.

 Seed of the Gods!

That thing started to work, and the cancer cells that spread all over his body were devoured by it crazily, and then fed back the majestic life energy, forcibly transforming his body.

 His own cells were safe and sound.

 So that's the case, that's why the God's seed chose him.

The seed of the gods can change the sacred rhythm and force cancer cells to divide and release energy.

 Prevent problems with his own cells!

 Lu Fuji also felt the feeling of being reborn. He could feel that his cells were boiling and burning, like a boiled sea, with roaring and surging tides.

The cancer pain that had become more and more severe since the drug was stopped has subsided like a tide, and the cancer cells that have spread throughout the body are dividing crazily.

Like destruction, but also like rebirth.

 “White Walker permission is now open!”

 “Dark matter perception permission is being opened, the opening is successful!”

 “Dark matter devouring authority is being opened, the opening is successful!”

 “Dark matter evolution permission is being opened, the opening is successful!”
