In the evening, another envoy from the army arrived, which annoyed Honda, who was planning to rest.
But it was hard to refuse someone's good intentions, so Honda followed Xiao Wanqing and Ran Hongxia to receive military ranks, though they were merely honorary positions!
Upon returning, Honda looked at the corpse on the ground, silently, probably another one of Li Jiayu's quirks.
Less than two hours later, Li Jiayu brought back a woman, making Honda involuntarily take two steps back.
With such a person coming to Xijiang University, it seemed Xijiang University was about to get lively.
Anyone who has read "End of Darkness" should know the name of this woman, the famous Liu Yinsha.
This unprincipled person's appearance gave Honda a headache.
Xiao Wanqing's face also changed; she herself had the inheritance of a Red-Clothed Archbishop, and Liu Yinsha was her direct opposite!
In the evening, someone investigated Xijiang University, but this had nothing to do with Honda!
Li Jiayu's Older Male Cousin's Wife pulled Li Jiayu and began to teach him the benefits of the dry path... cough cough, scratch that, she began to teach her younger brother-in-law about emotional intelligence!
Honda set up a barrier in her tent to prevent a certain fish that stole underwear from suddenly coming to steal things!
But for some reason, even with the barrier, her clothes seemed to have decreased somewhat!
This made Honda a bit surprised.
If she went to her Mount Space, she would probably find her missing clothes, but Honda didn't want to spend too much time with the yandere.
Early the next morning, shocking news spread: about five hundred people had been sucked dry into mummies!
This made both the military and civilians uneasy and fearful.
Li Jiayu also frowned; he hadn't expected the Blood Demon to be so gluttonous, which exceeded his understanding of her.
He hadn't even considered the higher-level Blood Angel aspect of the Blood Demon, because this inheritance was simply too rare.
Moreover, in his previous life, it already had an owner.
Completely unaware that he was facing a Blood Angel, this would make him pay the price for his carelessness!
But the Blood Demon was hidden very well, always evading detection.
Probably no one would have thought that an eight or nine-year-old girl was the Blood Demon!
However, the Blood Demon's actions were truly becoming more and more excessive.
At first, she only sucked dozens of people each day, but later her appetite grew, extending her claws to those weak individuals who fell behind.
Now, she was even more rampant, having instantly wiped out five or six hundred police officers.
This was simply a blatant provocation, a direct declaration of war!
It seemed the Blood Loli's dark side was growing stronger, otherwise, she wouldn't dare to hunt so extensively after Honda displayed such immense power!
Moreover, the situation was now quite severe.
These days, countless people had caught colds, fevers, and felt weak all over; if not for the water mages and healers in each team, even ordinary fevers and colds could have taken down a large number of people.
As for food... it had already started to become increasingly scarce.
Long journeys and resisting the cold at night consumed a lot of body heat, so citizens ate their food quickly.
Some poorly prepared citizens were running out of food and were about to face the predicament of hunger.
"Pfft!" Honda's steel spear instantly pierced through the ground like lightning, impaling the insect that was about to attack her from underground!
This was a new type of insect—the Swamp Devouring Giant Earthworm—which liked to emerge from underground, quickly swallowing people whole.
It was extremely fast and had a huge appetite!
It possessed the talent of moving freely through the earth!
With a flick of her hand, she split the disgusting insect on the spear in half, and Honda walked away, leaving behind a trail of admiring gazes!
By the afternoon, the fleeing team finally crossed several large mountains and arrived at a slightly flatter plain area, where the roads were a bit easier to travel.
However, the number of insects encountered also increased significantly.
High-tier second-level insects didn't appear much; most were still common insects like Green Armored Beetles, Amoebas, and Flying Dragon Louses.
But what made everyone's hearts pound was the appearance of many more never-before-seen insects.
The fleeing group, stumbling and fumbling, encountered countless dangers and insect attacks before finally finding an open space at dusk to rest properly.
However, the combat personnel, whose instincts were extremely sharp, sensed an extremely dangerous aura, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end.
A slight tremor came from the ground, like someone beating gongs and drums. In less than a few seconds, the tremor became more and more intense, like ten thousand horses galloping, disturbing everyone's minds.
"Earthquake!"
Sensing the massive life form underground, Honda's eyes flashed with a hint of brilliance. "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
