Chapter 55: Corpses everywhere [Please follow!]

Luo Ming's willingness to follow Xia Hong back was an initial trust in him.

What Xia Hong needed was actually just this bit of trust.

What he wanted was just to let Luo Ming go back to the camp to see.

If nothing happened to Luo Ge Camp, that would be best; he also hoped so.

While hurrying on the road, Xia Hong also asked Luo Ming. After a careful understanding, he knew where Li Hu's hostility toward him came from.

Hong Mu's discussion earlier had already made Li Hu angry and hit people, and Xia Hong happened to mention being played by the Wood Puppet Strange four times.

It turned out that what he said just now hit the muzzle of the gun.

However, Xia Hong still shook his head, feeling a trace of disdain for Li Hu in his heart.

Before coming here, hearing about Beishuo Town with a scale of 100,000 people, Xia Hong still had some expectations for the two Yang and Li and Li Hu who came from there.

After all, the more powerhouses there are, the safer the human living environment, and the higher the level of civilization should be. In such a cruel world as the Frozen Abyss, like that kind of place, it should be equivalent to a lighthouse for humanity.

People who came out of the lighthouse shouldn't be bad either.

But listening to Luo Ming's description, it was clearly not the case.

This Li Hu was not only small-minded, irritable, and easy to anger, but also looked down on people, arrogant, and full of bad habits.

Xia Hong naturally wouldn't think that everyone in Beishuo Town was like this. For example, Luo Ming clearly had a good impression of Yang Ning and didn't lack praise for him.

"It seems that even if the world is different, human nature is still common. The principle that one kind of rice feeds a hundred kinds of people applies everywhere."

In a large gathering place with over 100,000 people like Beishuo Town, it is normal for the good and the bad to be mixed.

This could be considered to have dispelled the charm of the so-called Beishuo Town for Xia Hong in advance.

"Chief Xia, are you at the Earth-Digging Realm?"

Luo Ming asked this question in a tone of shock.

After rushing in the snow for so long, he only realized now that unlike the others in the Woodcutting Realm who hung more than a hundred meters behind, Xia Hong had been following by his side all along.

The improvement of basic strength represents a comprehensive improvement of physical fitness, and the control of strength in all aspects has also risen to a higher level. The speed of rushing in the snow is far from comparable to the Woodcutting Realm.

Being able to keep up with him naturally means that he has also broken through to the Earth-Digging Realm.

Xia Hong didn't hide it, just nodded.

Looking at Xia Hong's young face, Luo Ming gasped, and the shock in his heart even turned into suspicion.

It's not that he hadn't seen such a young Earth-Digging Realm powerhouse.

Not to mention the distant ones, Yang Ning and Li Hu were two ready-made examples. The problem was that around Red Wood Ridge, and in such a small camp as Great Xia, it was absolutely impossible to appear.

No matter how gifted Xia Hong was, he couldn't pass the cold beast meat hurdle.

Even if his Luo Ge Camp had a fixed income of cold beast meat over the years, it couldn't cultivate such a young Earth-Digging Realm powerhouse.

"Could this Xia Hong be impersonated by that Wood Puppet Strange?"

This thought rose in Luo Ming's mind. He looked back at the six Woodcutting Realm powerhouses, Xia Chuan and Yuan Cheng, who were also young, and then looked at Xia Hong. His eyes became vigilant instantly.

Seeing the change in Luo Ming's expression, Xia Hong immediately realized what he was thinking. Although he felt helpless in his heart, he still appreciated Luo Ming's vigilant personality.

Not to mention, if he replaced his group with other people, Luo Ming thinking about the Wood Puppet Strange actually had no problem.

"Chief Luo, don't think randomly, go back to the camp first, I have ninety percent certainty that your camp has met with misfortune!"

In order not to cause extra trouble, Xia Hong still said a word, which could be considered as giving Luo Ming a preventive shot in advance.

Luo Ming could naturally understand his meaning. His expression changed slightly, and his pace became faster.

Soon, the two arrived at the valley entrance where Luo Ge Camp was located ahead of time. The crowd behind was not far away, and they all followed.

Finding that the gravel and wood pile at the valley entrance was the same as when he left, without any changes, Luo Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

But it was only temporary. Luo Ming hurriedly bypassed the gravel pile from the left and found the large round log blocking the entrance in a pile of rotten wood.

The diameter of that log was over five meters, and it was over fifty meters long. Moreover, it was the heaviest Jin Lin tree. Usually, it took several people to pull it out, but Luo Ming had Earth-Digging Realm strength, so he could do it alone.

However, Xia Hong saw that he was struggling, so he stepped forward to help pull it out.

The other three Earth-Digging Realm powerhouses of Luo Ge Camp also came over.

With five Earth-Digging Realm powerhouses together, no matter how heavy the log was, it was not enough.

Dong...

The log was pulled out straight and hit the ground, making a loud noise.

But as soon as the sound started, the expressions of Xia Hong, Luo Ming, and everyone else present changed instantly.

Because on the end of the log leading to the inside of the camp, six bloody arms were hanging, and beside the arms, there was a large piece of minced meat and blood foam.

"Something happened, follow me in quickly!"

Luo Ming roared this sentence. His face was covered with terror, and he rushed into the cave entrance with an arrow step.

The twenty-eight Earth-Digging and Woodcutting Realm people of Luo Ge Camp behind him also changed their expressions drastically and followed him in.

Xia Hong's expression also changed drastically, but he didn't rush in rashly. Instead, he took a piece of Condensing Fire Oil from his bosom and handed it to Xia Chuan.

"Chuan, don't go in. Apply the Condensing Fire Oil to the entire cave entrance, then hold the rest and guard here. No matter who comes out, greet them directly on the face."

"Understood, Chief!"

"The rest, follow me in quickly."

After speaking, Xia Hong also took Yuan Cheng, Yue Feng, and the other five and rushed in together.

In fact, when he saw the six bloody arms, Xia Hong already had a guess about the tragic situation inside the camp.

But the moment he truly stepped into the interior of Luo Ge Camp.

His scalp still couldn't stop tingling.

Corpses everywhere...

There were corpses everywhere he looked, and blood stains everywhere he stepped.

The strong fishy smell seemed to have gathered into smoke, drifting in the valley.

Severed limbs and broken arms were everywhere, and yellow and white minced meat could be seen everywhere.

The corpses lying on the ground were not even complete.

Some had half their skulls severed, some were chopped in two at the waist, some had their legs severed and were still struggling to crawl on the ground...

These people, big and small, even infants waiting to be fed, were there. It's just that the vitality of those infants was clearly not as tenacious as adults. They were either beaten into a pile of rotten meat by heavy blows or cut into several sections by sharp weapons.

The whole valley was filled with weak wails of pain, but there was not a single sound person on the ground.

"Ah..."

Terror, sorrow, anger, self-blame, madness, disbelief...

Countless emotions mixed together, and this terrifying long howl of Luo Ming instantly pierced the valley and resounded through the clouds.

Xia Hong took a deep breath, looked at Luo Ming and his party in front, and a trace of sympathy flashed in his eyes.

What others could hear from Luo Ming's long howl was unclear.

But he only heard deep pain and despair.

It was exactly the same as Shi Qing, who had witnessed the camp being slaughtered before.
