Chapter 272

Time passed by minute by minute, and everyone was anxiously waiting for the result. They watched the ice ball gradually disappear, hoping that the dark energy had been frozen.

Li Siming approached Zhang Side with some uneasiness and carefully checked his body temperature. However, when his hand touched Zhang Side's skin, Li Siming's face turned pale instantly.

How... How is it possible? ! "He said tremblingly.

Everyone gathered around nervously, their eyes fell on Zhang Side's face.

Zhang Side's face had completely turned iron blue, his eyes were closed, and his breathing was weak. Neither the power of ice nor the power of fire seemed to be able to stop the erosion of dark energy.

Everyone fell into despair, and tears fell silently.

Brother Zhang... I'm sorry... Li Keyong's voice trembled, and his heart was like a knife.

Suddenly, a slight and even breathing sound came into everyone's ears .

Everyone was shocked and turned around to see Zhang Si De's chest rising and falling slightly. He was not dead yet.

He... he was still alive! Wang Ziming's voice was a little excited.

Li Keyong looked at Zhang Si De in disbelief, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

Zhang Si De slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were a little weak, but full of determination.

You... don't be sad for me, I can still continue to fight. "Zhang Si De said weakly, with a smile on his lips.

Everyone was infected by Zhang Si De's strong spirit. They knew that this battle had just begun.

On a cold night a few days later, Li Keyong came alone to the back mountain of the hidden base of the Shenlong Society. The silent night left only his footsteps echoing around.

Brother Zhang, where are you? "Li Keyong prayed silently in his heart, hoping to find his comrades.

Suddenly, he found a dark figure among the clumps of bushes. Uncertainty surged in his heart, and he quickened his pace and crossed the woodland.

Finally, Li Keyong found a figure lying on the ground. He rushed to the side in a panic, and a chill came over him, and he saw the scene in front of him clearly.

Zhang...Brother Zhang! Li Keyong's voice trembled.

Long spear Zhang Si De lay on the ground, covered with blood. His eyes were closed, his face was pale, and there was no trace of life.

Li Keyong clenched his fists, and tears ran down his cheeks. "What's going on? Brother Zhang, why are you like this? "

He hurriedly checked Zhang Side's body, and the most frightening fact came into his eyes: there was a deep wound on Zhang Side's neck, and a lot of blood gushed out of the wound.

Murder... He was murdered! Li Keyong gritted his teeth, with anger in his tone.

He looked around for clues, trying to find the unknown murderer. Suddenly, he saw a broken rope. One end of the rope seemed to have just been tied to a branch.

Is this the murderer's escape tool?" Li Keyong's brows twisted into a questioning unity.

He held the rope tightly, frowned, and recalled the time when Zhang Side was murdered.The scene when he found it. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration, and the connection between the two clues began to emerge gradually.

The body of the leader and the death of Brother Zhang... seem to have some connection. "Li Keyong thought in his heart.

He hurried back to the camp and decided to tell the other comrades about the news, hoping to reach a consistent reasoning and action.

Everyone gathered together, and Li Keyong told them about the discovery in the back mountain.

Wang Ziming frowned and thought seriously: "It's really strange. The body of the leader was on the west side of the Shenlonghui base, and Brother Zhang was found on the east side of the base, and the wounds were fatal. "

Li Siming joined the discussion: "This means that there is a murderer who is familiar with the layout of the base and can commit murder without anyone noticing. "

Li Keyong nodded and agreed with their speculation.

"We must act quickly to find the murderer and avenge Brother Zhang! "Li Keyong said so.

Everyone expressed their support, and the flame of revenge ignited in their hearts.

From that night, everyone began to investigate and look for clues. They went deep into the hidden base and found some suspicious traces, such as abnormal footprints and bloodstains that were tried to be wiped.

After in-depth reasoning and analysis of evidence, they gradually determined the identity of the murderer.

The murderer should be an insider who is familiar with our actions and arrangements, so he can assassinate so accurately." Wang Ziming frowned.

Li Siming added: "The murderer is likely to be one of the leader's followers. They know the structure of the base and our activities very well."

So, what should we do next? "Li Keyong's voice was filled with the determination to fight.

Wang Ziming held the hilt tightly, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes: "We want to trap the murderer! Let them fall into the trap. "

Everyone followed Wang Ziming's advice and began to set a trap. They chose an open area in the center of the base and set up a seemingly important meeting to attract the murderer's attention.

During the meeting, the atmosphere was tense and suspicious. Everyone looked around vigilantly, trying to find any unusual movements.

Suddenly, a black shadow appeared out of thin air, wearing black armor and a mask on his face. He held a sword tightly, and murderous aura filled the air.

This is the murderer!" Li Keyong pointed at the black shadow and clenched his fist.

Everyone held their breath and waited for the right time. The murderer's eyes quickly scanned everyone and smelled the scent of the trap.

Ming Pao... You are really a bunch of idiots. The murderer's voice was cold and sarcastic.

What is your purpose here? "Li Keyong took a step forward and questioned without flinching.

The murderer chuckled: "My purpose? It's very simple, just destroy you guys who think you're righteous saviors. "

His voice was harsh and mocking, revealing arrogance and cruelty.

Suddenly, the murderer pounced on the crowd, his sword flashing coldly. Everyone reacted quickly,A fierce fight broke out.

The sound of swords and knives clashing echoed in the open area, harsh and tense. Everyone went all out and spared no effort.

Wang Ziming danced with the sword of fire, turning the flames around him into dragon breath. Li Siming mastered the power of ice and flew the ice cones in the air. Li Keyong wielded a spear and penetrated the enemy's defense line with superb spear skills.

Although the murderer was cunning and powerful, he was restricted by the joint efforts of everyone and gradually fell into a passive position.

The battle continued, and everyone cooperated with each other, fighting fiercely with unyielding will and tenacious fighting spirit. They were determined to avenge Zhang Si De and safeguard justice.

Finally, with the joint efforts of everyone, the murderer was finally subdued. He lay on the ground, panting, with a horrified face.

Li Keyong walked up to the murderer, his eyes flashing with revenge: "You have committed a sin, and you will pay for what you have done."

The murderer had nothing to say, but struggled desperately.

Everyone tied up the murderer as soon as possible and brought him back to the camp. They imprisoned the murderer in a cell, ready to hand him over to justice.

Li Keyong stepped into the cell, his eyes full of anger and pain.
