Chapter 122: The Walking Dead
(Thanks to the monthly pass of the South Sea Cat!haha!get the monthly pass!)
Charlotte was eager to see the terminally ill patients for herself, but he also knew that it would be self-defeating to make such a non-trivial request to the officers now. Because of this, he said goodbye to the officer.
However, less than two or three miles away, there was an angry roar behind him. What followed was the shouts of rage, mixed with the desperate shouts of some soldiers.
Charlotte and her disciples looked back, and the outline of the village could still be seen in the distance. The wooden fence at the edge of the village was full of people, and it seemed that the villagers could not stand the despair and began to riot.
The three masters and apprentices each cast a spell to increase their eyesight, and when they looked at it, they suddenly felt creepy.
The village was littered with broken glass shards and discarded debris, broken chairs, chopsticks, and wooden basins were thrown everywhere, and the mud floor in the fence was a mess. And that's not all, the most frightening thing is the human corpses lying scattered on the ground, as if they had been gnawed by wild beasts.
As the three of them looked at each other, a corpse with an intact head staggered to its feet.
He, or rather, anyway, the resurrected monster had pus and blood in its mouth, its eyes turned exaggeratedly, it stretched out its hand, staggered a few steps, and then gradually steadied like an adaptable baby, joining the crowd that stormed the wooden fence.
It wasn't a crowd at all, it was all monsters covered in pustules and bloody sores and pus!
"It's a walking corpse!" shouted Lolita, "how can there be these low-level undead creatures here?"
"No, it's not there!" Vivien's face turned pale, "they're from those patients......!
Vivien looked at Charlotte with disbelief and an imperceptible hint of hope in her eyes.
But Charlotte's answer dashed the hope in her eyes.
"Scourge of the Dead!"
"What!?" even Lolita, who had always been bold, was taken aback, "Boss, teacher, don't scare me!"
The Undead Scourge is the most terrible man-made disaster in the world! It is also the most vicious, cruel, and abominable legendary spell!
It will spread as a plague in the early stages, and in the middle stage, the dead who die of the plague will be awakened by the power of playing with the soul, and become unconscious, walking corpses with carnal instincts. These walking corpses are terrifyingly infectious, and those killed by the walking corpses have a high chance of transforming into the same undead warriors, and then spreading like a plague.
Once in the late stages, the entire land is a dead realm, and all the living are turned into undead. At that point, under the control of the caster, these undead will form the most terrible army of the undead in the world to sweep through everything! Wherever they go, they will spread plague and death to their heart's content, and they will continue to transform the dead into undead warriors, expanding and expanding until they or the living are destroyed!
"I wish it wasn't ......"
Charlotte smiled comfortingly worse than crying, and his heart swelled as he made this judgment. I can't help but wonder, is this the prophesied winter?
"In short, it doesn't matter if it's a natural disaster or not! It's just a bunch of walking dead, just go and see it!"
Her chest was hot for a while, and El, who was usually ordered to keep her in the form of a white jade book, turned into a young girl in the silver light. Don't look at her IQ as (9), but at critical moments, that straightforward personality can put forward point-to-the-point suggestions.
Charlotte nodded in agreement, and the four of them immediately ran towards the village.
On the other side, the officers of the lighthouse are in the most chaotic period of their lives.
In the beginning, he did make a decision that was quite correct and timely. When they saw the walking corpses of unusual people charging at the wooden fence, the officer immediately ordered everyone to attack after three successive warnings to no avail.
Unlike the zombies in Resident Evil, these walking corpses are better to deal with than zombies whose weakness is only their heads, rather than viruses that drive them back to life.
In addition to the fact that the plague of spells they carried was also contagious, the strength of these walking corpses was actually not even as strong as that of ordinary adult men, and under the attack of the soldiers, these ignorant walking corpses quickly suffered heavy casualties.
However, the good times did not last long, and the more than 100 walking corpses that swarmed up were not at all able to be stopped by a wooden fence, and when they killed more than 20 walking corpses efficiently, the overwhelmed wooden fence finally creaked and collapsed with a roar.
This is where the chaos begins!
Before the soldiers who had been overwhelmed by the collapsed wooden fence could scream, they were torn to pieces by the crowd of carnivorous walking corpses. The officer shouted orders the soldiers to stand back and keep their distance to counterattack, but the special spear, which was not conducive to combat, became a burden, and the long spear could not be easily swung and greatly drained the soldier's physical strength. The walking corpses, on the other hand, moved relatively slowly, but without fear, they rushed into the spear formation without fear of sacrifice.
The formation gradually became chaotic, and when several soldiers who had been bitten to death were eroded by the power of the undead and turned into walking corpses to begin to counterattack their former colleagues, the morale of the lighthouse soldiers finally plummeted. No matter how loudly the officers cheered up, the rout began to spread like an avalanche.
When Charlotte and the others arrived, what they saw was the tragic purgatory of the only dozen or so soldiers being chased and bitten by nearly a hundred walking corpses. Nearly half of the soldiers were bitten to death by the walking corpses, their flesh hung on their bodies and their faces gnawed to pieces, but they staggered to join the legion of the dead who killed them.
The officer and two or three soldiers were on the run and killed, in fact, if the soldiers of the lighthouse could summon up the courage to fight in an organized manner under the command of the officer, they would have been able to defeat the more than 100 walking corpses in the village. But the fear of plague, death, undead, and contagion broke the psychology of these soldiers, and it was normal for them to suffer such a miserable situation under the collapse of their morale.
This is also the most terrifying part of the Scourge of the Dead!
Not all of them are cold-blooded and ruthless fighters. In the face of all kinds of horrors that shock the soul, the confidence of the vast majority of soldiers will be completely destroyed by the ruthless and terrible Scourge Legion.
Even the lighthouse officer, with his firm faith and innocence and kindness, was frightened by the cold and ruthless walking corpse and the unbelievable plague, and only knew how to mechanically wave the weapon in his hand to make a last resistance.
"Vivien is in charge of controlling the field with the greasy spell, and Lolita is in charge of igniting it with the fireball technique, leaving one or two walking corpses for me to study. Act now!"
The Walking Dead were terrifying and cruel demons in the eyes of the Lighthouse Soldiers, but they were nothing in Charlotte's eyes.
He rushed to the village, immediately calmly gave orders to his disciples, and took control of the situation with Elle. The officer at the lighthouse saw him and rushed like a savior with the two remaining soldiers.
The rest of the soldiers either fled in a panic during the battle, or were bitten to death in the chaos and turned into new undead warriors.
Charlotte nodded at the officer, who gasped and glanced curiously at Elle, whom she had never seen before, and was about to ask if she needed help, when she saw Vivien unleash several greasy spells in quick succession towards the walking corpse.
The smooth layer of oil made the walking corpses slip under their feet, greatly restricting the movement of this group of irrational low-level undead. Next, Lolita casts a series of fireballs, the blazing fireballs react with the grease on the ground, and the bursting fireballs ignite the fuel plane, and the fire burns in front of the village. The group of walking corpses let out a strange cry like beasts, and the pungent smell of burnt barbecue came from the air, making the faces of several people who witnessed the barbecue turn pale.
This powerful strength made the officers secretly speechless, if they didn't ask about it at that time, they were only afraid now...... He didn't dare to think about it again.
Charlotte's face was solemn.
In the vision of the Vientiane Demon Eye, there was a faint hint of green in those curling black smoke, it was indeed not an ordinary plague.
As for whether it is a scourge of the undead......
"Your Excellency. Charlotte said to the grim-faced officer, "I need your help next." I'm going to do a study, and if things do get to the worst, I'm hoping you'll give the results of my research to the generals in charge of the area. ”
Even if you don't look at Charlotte's eyes, you can guess the seriousness of the matter just from what has just happened. The officer no longer thought about any damn orders, he only knew that he had to feed back to the general about this and the possible consequences, and this could not be done without the help of the man in front of him.
"My name is Mason. The officer replied, "Swear by my name, I will bring your research truthfully!"
