Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 372 Asking for help

Luo Ming and the remaining brothers gathered together tightly, forming a defensive circle with their backs to each other.

Their chests heaved violently, they gasped for breath, and a mixture of sweat and blood flowed down their cheeks.

Their eyes were fixed vigilantly on the monster ahead.

The monsters looked like giant scorpions, each more than half a person tall. Their shells were as hard as steel, gleaming with a cold light in the sun.

The most bizarre thing is that the locations of their stings are not ordinary poisonous stings, but hideous human heads.

The facial features of those heads were distorted, their expressions were painful and crazy, their mouths were wide open, and they kept roaring. The sound was sharp and piercing, like the roar of evil spirits from hell.

The corners of the mouth and teeth of each head were covered with blood, which looked particularly dazzling under the sunlight.

Luo Ming and his men had been fighting these monsters for a long time and knew the origin of the bloodstains - they were the blood of their companions.

Once these monsters caught them, they would stretch the heads on their tails and madly eat their flesh. Moreover, the bodies of these monsters were extremely hard, and the sharp steel knives in their hands could only splash a series of sparks when they chopped them, and it was difficult to cause substantial damage.

Just as the hope in Luo Ming's heart was being swallowed up little by little by the darkness and he fell into the abyss of despair, a faint whistling sound suddenly came from not far away.

The sound came closer and closer, becoming clearer and clearer, as if it was the sound of salvation coming from the distant sky...

Luo Ming did not hesitate at all. Almost at the moment he heard the whistling sound, he looked up reflexively.

What came into view was a hurricane of dust and sand, sweeping towards them with overwhelming force. The hurricane was like an angry dragon, rampaging through the desert, and wherever it went, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and the world was in chaos.

The hurricane hit the group of monsters that were tightly surrounding Luo Ming and his group without stopping.

For a moment, only a series of dull collision sounds were heard. Monsters that looked like scorpions were blown away by the powerful force of the hurricane like kites with broken strings, drawing strange arcs in the air, and then fell heavily on the sand not far away.

However, the changes did not end there.

Just as everyone was still recovering from the sudden shock, a blinding light suddenly flashed out from the hurricane like lightning.

In an instant, the hurricane carrying sand and dust seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand.

Immediately afterwards, a silver tiger-head spear swiftly emerged from it, the tip of the spear flashing a cold light, and with the force of thunder, it stabbed directly at a scorpion monster in front.

What shocked Luo Ming was that the monster, whose body was as hard as steel and whose steel knives could hardly hurt it at all, was pierced easily by the shot as if it were made of paper.

With a muffled "puff" sound, thick dark green blood spurted out from the monster's pierced body like a fountain, splashing strange blood flowers on the yellow sand.

A man in green tights held the spear firmly with a stern expression.

He exerted a little force with his hand and pulled the spear out of the monster's body. His movements were clean and neat, without any delay.

Luo Ming stared blankly at the scene before him that seemed like a divine force descending from the sky, his mind going blank.

Before he could recover from the shock, the monster that was shot through the body seemed to still have a trace of life and ferocity. The human head on its tail suddenly let out a painful and mad roar, and fiercely attacked the gunman who suddenly appeared at an extremely strange angle and speed.

Luo Ming was startled, his heart seemed to jump out of his throat, and he subconsciously warned: "Be careful!"

However, his words were still echoing in the air, and a cold light flashed like lightning.

Almost at the same moment, a head with a hideous face soared into the sky, drew a short arc in the air, and then fell heavily on the sand.

At the same time, a voice sounded: "The head on the tail is the weak point!"

Upon hearing that, the gunman didn't hesitate at all. The spear in his hand danced quickly in the air like a nimble silver snake, instantly turning into a series of afterimages and sweeping towards the surrounding monsters swiftly.

Every time the gun shadow passed, it was accompanied by the monster's shrill roar, splattering of dark green blood, and flying hideous heads.

It was not until this moment that Luo Ming suddenly realized that there was more than one person coming.

The other two were also wearing the same green tights. They were agile, quick in movement, and their attacks were fast, accurate and ruthless.

Under their fierce attack, the monsters that had seemed extremely ferocious and forced Luo Ming and his group into a desperate situation turned out to be like ants with no ability to fight back, and were defeated one after another under their attacks.

If these monsters had not seen the bad situation and quickly burrowed into the sand and fled in panic, Luo Ming believed that the three mysterious masters who suddenly appeared before them would be enough to wipe out all these terrible monsters that they were helpless against.

Luo Ming felt a chill on his back and shivered for no apparent reason.

The three mysterious masters who suddenly appeared before their eyes had unfathomable strength, and their every move revealed a powerful aura.

He knew in his heart that in front of such a strong man, even the slightest disrespect could bring about unpredictable disasters.

If, because of their recklessness, the other party mistook them for wild monsters and killed them, then they would be helpless and would have no place to cry.

Luo Ming did not dare to slack off. He quickly straightened his clothes and respectfully bowed to the three people. He said humbly and sincerely, "Thank you for saving my life. I am Luo Ming. May I ask your names?"

Li Zhi looked Luo Ming and the others up and down. They were dressed in rags and covered in blood, and they had obviously been through a tough battle. He nodded slightly, his expression calm, and slowly said, "We are from the Night Patrol Division of Yongguo, and we just happened to pass by here. Who are you, and how did you meet these monsters?"

"Yongguo?!"

When Luo Ming and others heard Li Zhi introduce himself, they couldn't help but exclaim in unison.

An even more awed look instantly appeared on their faces, and their eyes were filled with admiration and respect as they looked at Li Zhi and the others.

Luo Ming thought to himself, no wonder they are so powerful, it turns out they are from Yongguo.

Thinking this in his heart, Luo Ming responded respectfully: "So you are the Lord of Yong State. I am so sorry for your disrespect! We are from Xifeng State and were planning to go to Qi State to do some business. But I never thought that we would encounter these terrible monsters on the way in this desert..."

As he was speaking, Luo Ming slapped his head suddenly. He suddenly remembered that Miss Huang and others were still surrounded by monsters and their lives were in danger.

He was so anxious that he could not think of much else. His voice was trembling and anxious as he said, "My companions are still surrounded by these monsters and are on the verge of death. I beg you to show mercy and help save them!"

As he spoke, Luo Ming knelt on his knees with a plop, and knelt towards Li Zhi and the others.

Seeing this, Luo Ming's brothers also knelt down.
