Chapter 279 Taking the bait

At noon the next day, Huangfeng City.

At this moment, the entire Huangfeng City was eerily quiet. Only Gu Rong and Dugu Bo were standing at the top of the city, looking at the woods not far away.

"Everything has been arranged, and now it's just a matter of waiting for those small fish to take the bait."

Dugu Bo smiled coldly.

He seemed to have a picture of what those people would look like after entering his poisonous miasma.

"Don't be too careless. We don't know the opponent's strength very well. We have to be careful in everything."

"Don't end up capsizing in the gutter."

Gu Rong didn't dare to be careless at all. He didn't want to make any mistakes at such a critical node.

"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore, I still know about this kind of thing."

"Wait, let's just wait patiently."

After that, the two of them stopped chatting. Instead, they observed the surrounding area attentively, fearing that the other party would sneak in using some unexpected method.

On the other side, in the woods, all the fallen ones were ready. They all gathered around the King of Slaughter, waiting for their king to wake up.

Without the King of Slaughter giving an order to attack, they did not dare to make any move for fear of offending their King.

"When will the king wake up? It's already noon, right?"

"I don't know, I can't wait any longer. I really want to rush into that city right now and kill all the people in the city!"

"Me too! I'm really beginning to miss the pleasure of blood pouring into my throat!"

"Wait a little longer. If we act privately, the king might be furious and throw us back to the killing city."

"..."

A group of fallen people were talking about each other, but no surprise, they were all impatient now.

They are now like a group of wild wolves that have not eaten for several days. They are almost going crazy with hunger. Now they just wait for an order and they will rush towards Huangfeng City like crazy.

"Huh? The king is awake!"

"Quick, quick! Be quiet! Don't make any noise in front of the king."

Suddenly, the Slaughter King slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and smiled.

"My people, start your carnival! Stop suppressing your nature and release it to your heart's content!"

He raised his hands in the air and shouted.

He didn't need to rest at all. He was just waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity that could arouse everyone's enthusiasm and passion.

And now, it is that perfect moment.

As his words fell, hundreds of fallen people immediately looked up to the sky and cheered, then rushed towards Huangfeng City crazily.

They had waited long enough and now that it was finally time to start, they didn't want to stop and wait any longer.

Their speed was extremely fast, really like a starved beast, running forward desperately.

"Huh? There seems to be movement. Are they finally here?"

On the top of Huangfeng City, Dugu Bo had noticed the movement in the forest.

"Well, their speed is really not slow, and their strength is not bad either."

"The ones at the front are Soul Douluo, and those behind are a group of Soul Saints. Where did they run out from?"

Gu Rong frowned and began to think in her mind.

"Hmph! No matter where they ran out from, not far away is the scope of my poisonous miasma. I don't believe they can rush through there safely."

Dugu Bo confidently said.

In order to spread this poisonous miasma, he spent a lot of effort. Not only did he refine the originally conspicuous poisonous miasma into a colorless and odorless one, but he also increased the toxins in it by more than five times.

He didn't believe that anyone could safely rush through this poisonous miasma and still be unharmed.

Due to the poison contained in it, even if a titled Douluo comes, they will all suffer some damage.

Dugu Bo is confident. At least, this poisonous miasma is his highest achievement in recent times.

"Ah! How is this..."

Suddenly, screams began to sound in the woods. Under the gaze of other fallen people, several Contras who rushed to the front instantly turned into white bones.

The flesh and blood on their bodies seemed to have been directly evaporated by some special force, which was extremely weird!

"What...what's going on? Is there something in front of you?"

"No...I don't know! How could we possibly know this?"

"Then what should we do now? Should we go forward? Or go back..."

"Go back? Go back to seek death? If we go back like this, the King of Slaughter will not let us go."

"..."

For a moment, all the fallen ones stopped, stopped in front of the poisonous miasma, and began to discuss a solution.

They are all a group of lunatics, but they are not stupid. There is a trap ahead, so they will not rush forward foolishly.

Naturally, you need to figure out the reasons and solutions before you can move forward.

But unfortunately, there was no one in this group who knew about poison. They looked ahead for a while, but still couldn't see anything.

"Hmph! You thought it would be fine if you didn't get close, did you?"

"Then you are thinking too much!"

Seeing the group of people stopping just in front of his poisonous miasma, Dugu Bo sneered.

Immediately, he pushed his hands forward, the soul power surged in his hands, and the poisonous miasma also changed accordingly.

They seemed to be blown by a special wind and started to move forward slowly!

Those fallen who were still hesitating in front of the poisonous miasma were instantly turned into bones. They died in the same way as the previous group of people, but they died faster.

They couldn't even moan.

"No! What on earth is going on!"

"They clearly didn't move, so why are they still dead?"

"Something's wrong! What happened in this forest?"

"I don't know! Li Yang and the others all died just now. Who knows what happened!"

"No! Someone died over there again!"

"..."

For a moment, the entire team of Fallen fell into chaos, and the fear in their hearts was maximized at this moment.

But because of the King of Slaughter, they didn't dare to retreat at this moment. Now they were like a sandwich, sandwiched between two sides, and they would die if they advanced or retreated!

"How about it? Should we take action now?"

"The strongest among the remaining group is only the Soul King. If the two of us take action now, we will be able to deal with them all in less than a minute at most."

"And I don't know why, these fools didn't retreat, so they didn't have a chance to enjoy the good things I left behind."

There was a hint of pity in Dugu Bo's tone.

It turned out that he had hidden some poisonous gas that could be detonated by him in the woods behind the group of people. As long as they dared to retreat, they would be eroded by his poisonous gas.

"Let's wait and see. The most troublesome guy has never appeared. Let's wait until he appears before we take action."

"In this way, we can also take the initiative, and also test the opponent's strength by the way."

Gu Rong still wanted to be careful and had no intention of taking action.

But at this moment, a blood-red figure suddenly appeared behind them.

"Are you... waiting for me to show up?"
