Chapter 379

Gu Chen was helpless.

Raiden Ei set off immediately.

Inazuma couldn't be without a ruler for a day, so Kitsune Saigu had to step up.

Gu Chen acted as an assistant, helping Kitsune Saigu handle some matters, while the little Yae fox was forced to serve as the temporary Guuji.

A few days later.

"Ei hasn't sent back any news yet." Kitsune Saigu rubbed her brow.

"I don't know what's going on either." Gu Chen had a headache.

"This passive situation is so annoying." Kitsune Saigu was even more irritable.

Gu Chen didn't speak.

Under these circumstances, he was also very irritable.

But he had no other way.

Nothing to do for now.

Gu Chen walked out of the Tenshukaku and walked along the streets of Inazuma all the way to the wilderness.

Only the wind in the wilderness made Gu Chen feel a bit more relaxed.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Gu Chen keenly sensed that there seemed to be something in the distance.

After getting closer, he discovered that the soil seemed to be turning pitch-black.

"What is this?"

Gu Chen frowned.

This change only lasted for a moment before it stagnated.

The plants growing in the pitch-black soil had already withered.

Gu Chen looked around; he felt that there was some creature in the void peeking at him.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Chen's right arm turned pitch-black, and he reached out directly.

Crack!

The void was pierced, and Gu Chen grabbed something and dragged it out of the void.

The thing he was holding was very similar to a wolf.

The aura on this dark creature made Gu Chen feel uncomfortable and disgusted.

Its sharp claws seemed capable of tearing through space.

"Strange creature."

Gu Chen frowned and immediately prepared to crush it.

The next moment, he clearly felt the surrounding void bulging, as if more strange creatures were about to pass through the void to attack him.

"Are they like a pack of wolves?"

Gu Chen used his five fingers to crush the skull of the creature in his hand, then immediately drew his katana and slashed horizontally.

The skull of another wolf that had just emerged from the void was instantly shattered, falling from the void opening and crashing to the ground.

Its blood splattered, seemingly polluting the soil, and the plants it touched withered directly.

"Where did these things come from?"

Gu Chen looked around.

He had been surrounded by these wolf-like, dog-like things.

Gu Chen's expression was serious; he didn't take these things seriously.

But what was certain was that such things did not exist in Inazuma.

Alien species!

This made Gu Chen very vigilant.

Streaks of black blade light swept past.

The pack of wolves had become corpses.

Whether using fire to burn them or directly using powerful force to annihilate them, their power could not be completely eliminated.

The most that could be done was to reduce the pollution they caused to the land.

Realizing something was wrong, Gu Chen immediately returned to the Tenshukaku.

"You mean you encountered a brand-new species? This species can break through the void and pollute the soil and wither plants?" Kitsune Saigu couldn't believe it.

But the corpse placed in the main hall was proof.

"Something is going to happen!" Kitsune Saigu said in a deep voice.

"I don't know if it has any connection to Makoto's disappearance." Gu Chen pondered.

"We must let Ei hurry back!" Kitsune Saigu said immediately.

"She's already back."

Gu Chen looked up toward the direction of Liyue.

Lightning flashed across the sky.

Raiden Ei returned.

Her expression was a bit unpleasant.

"Did you find Makoto?" Gu Chen asked.

Raiden Ei shook her head and said: "There is no news. I didn't even see that Geo Archon in Liyue; the Adepti of Liyue also don't know where their Geo Archon went. I also went to Sumeru on the way and didn't see Greater Lord Rukkhadevata either..."

"In that case, have all the Seven Archons disappeared?" Kitsune Saigu found it incredible.

"Truly a strange matter." Gu Chen didn't understand.

Raiden Ei also didn't understand; she looked worried and said: "I don't know how my sister is doing."

Noticing the monster corpse in the hall, Raiden Ei asked: "What is this?"

"The corpse of a strange monster."

Gu Chen explained the situation he encountered in detail.

"How strange, I've never heard of such a creature." Raiden Ei frowned.

After checking the monster corpse, she said: "How strange, how could a creature grow into such a structure?"

"What do you mean?" Kitsune Saigu raised an eyebrow.

"Not enough clues, not clear yet." Raiden Ei shook her head.

"It's not good!"

An Ojimban rushed in to report: "Shogun, reports from all over say they have encountered strange monsters!"

"Like this one?" Gu Chen asked, pointing to the monster corpse.

The Ojimban took a look and nodded, then added: "It's these, but there are many other creatures, and some life forms I've never seen before!"

"I'll go take a look!"

Raiden Ei turned into a bolt of lightning and went far away.

"Let's go, let's go take a look too."

Kitsune Saigu was a bit worried and came to the wilderness with Gu Chen.

The originally clear sky became a bit dim, as if a shadow had been cast over the sky.

Narukami Island, which had already been cleared by Raiden Ei, originally had very few monsters, but now a large number of monsters had emerged.

"Hilichurls?"

"How can there be so many?"

Kitsune Saigu was very surprised.

Monsters like Hilichurls were very rare in this era.

But just in this area, looking around, there were tens of thousands, already forming a tide.

Besides Hilichurls, there were many autonomous machines marching, and they were destroying every living thing they saw.

Pitch-black was spreading under their feet.

Fierce beasts also appeared in the pitch-black.

They were strange in shape, and one monster that looked like a tiger was as high as a small mountain.

Mikoshi Chiyo was already fighting that tiger.
