Chapter 339: Discovery
"This ......"
Rui Wen frowned imperceptibly, and her attitude was very hesitant.
If you accept Nidhogg's invitation and stand on its claw, it is almost equivalent to giving your life to the black dragon, and no mortal, who is in a normal state, will take this step easily.
However, forced by the situation, Ruiwen had to prioritize Nidhogg's likes and dislikes, once the disobedience angered this powerful black dragon, God knows if it would be as gentle as the words, and it might even turn its face and kill directly.
Rui Wen subconsciously turned back and sought the opinion of the commander of the East, Noxus is the supreme power, and the soldiers will unconditionally obey the orders of the upper officers.
Even in the face of a terrible dragon, once the general draws his sword, the soldiers will die generously without hesitation.
But then, she had mixed emotions of disappointment and happiness, and saw the general also staring at her, and nodded his chin imperceptibly at an angle that only Rui Wen could see.
The girl pursed her lips and put away the rune blade, her jet-black armor making a metallic clang, and she strode forward, and after a brief hesitation, she climbed onto the claw of the black dragon Nidhogg.
"Thank you for your trust. ”
Nidhogg exclaimed softly, accompanied by a low chuckle, like sparks from the clash of swords.
The giant dragon raised its claws and whistled the girl in front of it, its huge vertical eyes the size of a house, and the air that spewed out a stream of air that made Riven's hair rise high in the air.
Su Kai looked at the girl up close, Rui Wen had not yet grown into a "banished blade", although her face was hard, but it was also accompanied by a few wisps of green astringency, and her fine hair was as white as the first snow, and she looked at him without fear.
"Please elaborate on the cause of our misunderstanding. ”
Nidhogg lowered his head, and the black scales of his nose pressed against the girl.
Ridiculous, we thought it was a reef community at first, but the shame of ignorance quickly crept into Ruiwen's heart, making her sigh in the bottom of her heart.
"Dragon...... Mr. ”
But then, the girl immediately collected her emotions and chose a title to speak: "Our astrologer reveals ......"
"General!"
Suddenly, a soldier let out a low cry, interrupting Rui Wen's whispering, and Su Kai keenly noticed that the mortal took a sharp breath of cold air.
Everyone looked in the direction the soldier pointed, and saw something faintly floating on the sea, black, as if it had drifted here because of the fierce wind and waves set off by the black dragon before.
A corpse.
Su Kai thought secretly, his vision was much wider than that of humans, and under the focus of his pupils, he could clearly see a dead corpse floating below the surface of the sea, and his arms were held high, as if he was holding a life-saving straw.
"This is Jeffrey. ”
When the soldiers salvaged the dead body onto the ship, Rui Wen had already jumped from the dragon's claws, and recognized her former compatriot at a glance, she turned the body over with her hands, the corpse's face was pale, the boss who was soaked in the sea and swollen, and her blood-red eyes were opened to an exaggerated degree, staring at the living.
"May the souls of the departed rest in peace. ”
A wizard stepped out of the cockpit, whispering an ancient prayer to close the eyes of the warrior who had died for Noxus, but was never able to do so.
"Damn. ”
The general also changed the warship, stared at the corpses on the deck, and said angrily: "Jeffrey has brought three hundred people, where did the others go?"
With that, the general crouched down beside the corpse, grabbed the dead body's wet hair, and grabbed the head, and the strands of hair fell from his fingertips, crunchy as straw.
He muttered twice, reached out and turned the corpse's face over, tearing open its heavy wet armor with his bare hands, and ripped the dead body clean.
There are no wounds whatsoever.
Even strangulation would have left a mark on his neck, but the dead body of Jeffrey had not a single scar on his body, not even the red marks that could have been caused by a slight scuffle, only the water-soaked and swollen skin.
"Did this guy fall off the boat and drown?"
The general stood up, and no matter how much he fiddled, the corpse's eyes were still open, and the bloodshot scarlet beads stared into the sky.
Of course, this is a joke, a guard captain as high as the fourth order will not be drowned in the sea.
Joffrey's death seems to have had another reason.
Rui Wen approached the corpse and twitched her nose without hesitation, relying on her sense of smell to distinguish the smell of the corpse.
"There is no smell of blood, General. ”
She shook her head at the Eastern Commander, "Even the stench of corpses is faint. ”
Rui Wen's five senses were extremely keen, and she could even smell the distorted smell of blood on Su Kai's body, the time of the accident of the three hundred soldiers was three days ago, and it stands to reason that in such a hot weather in the Sea of Watch, the corpses should start to stink.
"He didn't rot, even when he was soaked in seawater. ”
The girl pinched the dead corpse's stiff arm: "According to common sense, he should be about to give birth to maggots by now, besides...... The corpse has been floating in the sea for so long, how can it not be swallowed by the strange monsters in the sea?"
"Hmm...... Am I mistaken. ”
The general suddenly patted his head: "I remember that Joffrey obviously has black eyes, Rui Wen, does this guy's eyes have the same color as you?"
Rui Wen was shocked, she stared at the corpse's eyes that were a little terrifying, and blurted out, "No!" ”
Silence enveloped the fleet, and for a moment people could only hear their own suppressed breathing and heavy heartbeat, and Su Kai flew lightly to the front, standing on the surface of the sea next to the hull of the dead body.
"Mighty transcendent, do you have any clues?"
After a long silence, the General slowly stood up and bowed to the massive dragon, asking for advice while keeping a close eye on Nidhogg's reaction.
In fact, in their opinion, the black dragon is most likely the murderer of the Noxian sergeant, otherwise, how could it appear here for no reason and happen to be bumped into by them.
"May the departed rest in peace. I'm sorry, but it's the first time I've seen your compatriots you're looking for. Su Kai shook his head.
There was no need for him to lie, in fact, after arriving in Valoran, he had been quietly dormant, waiting for the mission of the Lord God to be released, the power of domination had not yet been stained with blood, and the soldier was indeed not killed by Su Kai.
There are actually many ways to kill people without causing injuries, such as mental attacks, witchcraft curses, etc., but the corpse shows more than one strange trait, even in Su Kai's eyes, this human died a little strangely.
He was interested and deliberately found out the cause of the soldier's death.
The "soul touch" is silent and invisible, and has become dense in the air, slowly climbing up the body of a dead human and covering it.
The will of the undead is still alive and active, but there seems to be a deep curtain between him and Su Kai, and when Su Kai tries to communicate with him, he instantly senses the undead fanaticism.
Just when Su Kai was puzzled.
A cold aura immediately seeped in, bursts of madness and gore that rushed straight to my mind, mixed with incomprehensible but chilling murmurs.
He quickly cut off the sense of soul touch.
