Chapter 59: Into the City

Early in the morning of the third day, the four of them came to the flight point to wait for the flight attendant service.

Due to the urgency of time and the fear of something unexpected on the road, Du Yuhan decided to give up the traditional horse-drawn carriage and take the fastest flight attendant to reach the town of Bede.

Although the shape of the city has become tense, since the lord has not completely abandoned the town, the flight route from Fran City to Bidtown is still working normally. Because of the scarcity of passengers, they didn't wait long, and after paying the fee, they boarded the bipedal dragon and headed for the town of Bede.

This is the first time Du Yuhan has ridden this kind of aerial mount.

It's not that I've never been on a plane before, but it's sitting in a confined environment, and the only thing I can communicate with the outside world is that palm-sized window. But now it is a 720-degree spherical field of view with no dead angles, and only a little contact area under the crotch is connected to the mount, and what is even more terrifying is that this vehicle does not even have a seat belt......

I have to say that it was a really exciting experience, so much so that after landing, he was embarrassed to crouch on the side of the road and vomit. When Du Yuhan stood up with a blank face, he no longer had the strength to pay attention to Heywood's narrow eyes.

Depend on! Who knew that this two-legged wyvern could fly so badly? He almost threw up his overnight meal!

"You're too frustrated, aren't you? Will you vomit when you take a flying ride? Heywood looked the frail Du Yuhan up and down disdainfully.

"Han, are you alright?" Pulling out a bottle of antidote potion from the space ring, Kevin helped the trembling Du Yuhan to sit down.

Taking the potion and taking a sip, Du Yuhan felt much more comfortable, "I'm fine." ”

After resting for a while, the group began to move forward.

After walking for a short time, they came to a ruined base. From a distance, it looked like the gate of the town, but after days of fierce fighting, the once tall gate is now only a few boulders.

Due to the sudden change in the situation, the danger of the town has increased dramatically, and compared to the chaos in the town, the mutated monsters on the periphery are much easier to deal with. A large area of open space at the entrance of the town was cleared for temporary camp, and the flying spots that had been set up in the town were temporarily relocated to temporary huts outside the town.

Now that the town is no longer habitable, a large number of refugees have been urgently moved out of the town and arranged to live in tents provided by the royal city. Kevin hurriedly went to inquire, but the refugees were left with endless panic and despair in their eyes, and they did not get any useful information at all.

After questioning a dozen townsfolk one after another, Kevin returned to the group in frustration and shook his head slightly.

Du Yuhan patted Kevin's shoulder to cheer him up, silently thinking in his heart. Kevin's uncle didn't follow the refugees, so there were only two scenarios left. Excluding the most pessimistic kind, then he is most likely still trapped in the town. It seems that the remaining choice now is to go into the city to investigate.

Just as he carefully weighed the danger factor of entering the city, Kevin hesitantly tugged at the corner of his shirt.

"Han, do you want to ...... Forget it. ”

Seeing this situation in person, the situation was even more severe than he imagined, and the chances of Uncle Noyce surviving in this environment, he no longer had much hope, and could only pray that the other party had already fled this place. If he forced his way into the city to search, the price would be too high, and he didn't want to risk it.

Du Yuhan showed a hearty smile, "Anyway, I've already come here, so it's not bad to go in and see the situation." Aren't there any guards stationed in the town? Just be careful, and you shouldn't have a big problem. ”

"Butβ€”"

"I also agree with Du Yuhan's statement, there are still guards in the city, as long as they don't go deep, it should be fine." Raphael was silent and agreed with Du Yuhan's suggestion.

Kevin gave the other a deep look and didn't speak.

In this regard, Du Yuhan raised half of his eyebrows and did not say.

It is said that ordinary people will be repelled when they see this chaotic scene, but this Raphael not only did not show any discomfort, but strongly agreed with Tiyì who entered the city. To say that he was just an ordinary traveler was extremely skeptical.

It seems that this guy's identity is not simple......

"I said, what are you still inking? Is it going to be a walk or not? Completely unaware of the swords and swords, Heywood frowned as the three of them stared at each other in place, not knowing what they were doing.

Glancing at the bear child, Du Yuhan hooked the corners of his mouth, "Go, of course go." ”

Around the temporary camp, only a few Praetorian Guards were guarded, and they did not interrogate the identities of these people, and they casually glanced at them and let them go.

In such a dangerous environment, those who choose to risk their lives to enter the city, except for the family members who take risks to find their relatives, are only those outlaws who want to make huge profits.

The air was filled with the stench of the undead, and the further you went, the stronger the smell became. Less than 20 meters away from the gate, two rows of improvised fences were scattered, and more than a dozen people dressed as guards stood inside the fences, squatting in the temporary fortifications of several large sandbags, monitoring the changes in the war in the city at any time.

In front of the gate, the dilapidated wooden door was closed, and many wooden strips were nailed to the tinkering. There was a trench dug only two meters away from the wooden gate, and it was obvious that it was dug in a hurry, and a few broken planks were built at random to make it a bridge, and it creaked when walking on it, as if it might break at any time.

Du Yuhan looked down at the trench, and there were broken stumps stacked horizontally, looking like charred black charcoal, maintaining the painful struggle posture before death, and the stem was standing in place.

Raphael, who was following behind, frowned, looking at the pile of corpses for a long time before slowly following.

After negotiating with the city gate guards for a long time, the other party was willing to let him go.

Under the guard's incomprehensible gaze, the four of them slowly passed through the city gate. At the time of the accident, there were indeed many mercenaries who wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob, but then the situation deteriorated sharply, and the people in the town couldn't escape if they wanted to, who would go into the city to die?

***********

The wide streets were dead silent, with little fires everywhere, billowing smoke obscuring the sky, and visibility barely over ten meters. The dim oil lamps loomed in the smoke, and the smell of blood was faintly in the air.

The roads were a mess, with dumped wagons, rubble, and bits and pieces of the living dead. Occasionally, some hastily piled up fortifications, stained with black-brown blood, all tell the tragedy of the war.

"It's miserable......"

This qiΔ“ in front of him made Du Yuhan sigh, and it was not difficult to find from the surrounding ruins that the streets must have been extremely prosperous in the past, but now they have become purgatory on earth. Most of the buildings along the roadside had burned down in the chaos, the air was filled with the smell of scorching dust, and it was deserted except for the occasional sound of broken wood.

Du Yuhan walked to a small bungalow with intact structure, and cautiously went in to search, but unfortunately there was nothing in it except blackened debris.

If they had walked for nearly a quarter of an hour, they had not even seen half of the living dead, let alone the living.

"Strange, why are all the guards guarding the city gone?" Du Yuhan frowned, the situation in front of him was not optimistic.

According to the information just heard, there should be no less than five Praetorian Guard squads patrolling around the town now, and now they have walked for so long, but they have not encountered a single one.

What's going on?

The weirdest thing is that the more you go into the town, the more intense the energy concentration in the air. Just now Kevin just raised his hand, basically without much effort, a huge divine spell was condensed lightly, and the originally peaceful divine element was extremely active, faintly meaning to break free from the spell casting.

In this way, although the strength of the spell is higher, the enemy's attack will become more powerful, so I don't know if it's good or bad.

The group was slowly moving forward vigilantly, and Raphael, who walked at the rear, crouched in front of a pile of corpses that were still smoking.

Before entering the city, some refugees mentioned that these living dead move slowly and move in groups, although they do not have the intelligence to carry out strategic attacks, but they are extremely powerful, and there is a possibility of resurrection, so they must be burned with oil fire.

He pinched up half of what looked like a finger and leaned forward to take a closer look. Suddenly, there was a strange movement in the originally stiff limbs, and the charred joints twitched slightly as if they were being pulled by something, as if they were trying to break free from the shackles, and there was a subtle crunching sound of bones rubbing.

Raphael's eyes changed, and a blue electric current wrapped around his finger like a small snake, and the stump that was still wriggling on his fingertip was immediately smashed into black powder, gently falling to the ground.

"What are you looking at?" A ruffian male voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

"No, I'm wondering where all the belongings on these people have gone." Patting the powder on his hands, Raphael stood up.

"You don't care where it goes, even if it's still on me, I won't turn it over." Looking at the pile of corpses on the ground in disgust, Heywood pinched his nose and frowned, "You hurry up and don't fall behind, it's very dangerous here, and I won't have time to save you later." Gone away, stinky to death! ”

Seeing Heywood's exaggerated expression, Raphael smiled slightly, he looked back at the pile of foul-smelling corpses, and quickly followed the people in front of him.

Just as the group was walking towards the center of town, there was a sudden sound of kaz, which sounded like they were chewing something.

Du Yuhan, who was the leader, paused for a moment, carefully identified the direction, signaled a few people to stay where they were, and walked gently towards the source of the sound. He stopped at the mouth of an alley and slowly peeked in.

I saw a round body prostrate on the ground, the skin showed a sickly white, some places had long been rotten, and blue-purple veins were entrenched under the skin, and the purple corpse spots formed a strange texture. I saw it squirming its fat body, biting the prey in its mouth, and when I looked closely, it was clearly some human parts.

The terrible sound of bones chewing on the hairs of the people stood on end, came from the mouth of the alley one after another, and the scalp tingled when I heard it.

it! This picture is much more exciting than in the movie!

The corners of Du Yuhan's mouth twitched a few times, and he had no intention of disturbing the fat man's meal, so he quietly retreated again. He made a silent gesture to the others, and then pointed ahead, telling everyone to get out of here.

Just as they were tiptoeing around and preparing to go around, a black object the size of a fist quickly rushed towards several people, Du Yuhan reacted quickly, pulled out his big sword and slashed forward hard, the thing squeaked, and was split in half by the sword qi and died no longer dead.

He listened nervously for a few more moments, and was relieved to see that the strange chewing sound was still continuing, and then crouched down to examine the creature that had attacked them.

This is a zombie rat, not only is it bigger than the average one, but the surface is very rotten, and there are many white flies and maggots wriggling on its body, which makes people lose their appetite to watch.

Unexpectedly, not only did there appear the living dead here, but even other creatures could not escape the fate of this mutation. This kind of living dead person has no self-consciousness and looks like a corpse puppet controlled by a necromancer, but to control such a huge number, no one except the necromancer god can do it. But if you want to destroy this place, you only need to move your fingers, and it is estimated that this town will be destroyed, so why bother so much?

This shows how powerful this runaway energy must be.

Du Yuhan's face became solemn, it seemed that he had underestimated the danger of this journey.

Just as a few people wanted to move on, there was a rustling sound in front of them. When they looked up, they saw something moving near the wooden box not far away, moving quickly in their direction.

Several people immediately put on a fighting posture, and when they looked closely, they were actually piles of zombie rats, roughly looking at nearly thirty or forty of them. The pupils of the hungry eyes burst out with a faint green light, like a small light bulb, which is very strange. It seems that the mouse's dying wail has attracted its companions, who have come running with their helpers to take revenge.

Du Yuhan had a headache, although the level of these zombie rats was not high, but the number was there, worried that it would cause extraneous branches if it was delayed, he aroused his fighting spirit and rushed forward first, and he cut down a few of them.

The few people behind him also quickly came to their senses, drew their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy, and after a while, a burst of snow-white and golden light flashed, and the pile of zombie rats crossing the street was wiped out by several people.

Du Yuhan straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief, and vigorously wiped away the foul-smelling liquid splashed on his face. It's been a long time since I've had such a fierce fight, and my body is a little sluggish, and it seems that in addition to practicing modeling skills, physical training can't be left behind in the future.

"You ...... Did you notice anything wrong? Kevin looked at the crowd hesitantly.

Hearing this, everyone else was stunned.

Smoke billowed and the air was filled with the disgusting stench of corpses, and there was silence except for the crackling of burning dry wood.

Silence?

As if remembering something, everyone's faces changed, and they rushed forward without hesitation.

The next moment they raised their feet, a high-pitched roar came from behind them.

"Roar! ——”

Hemp eggs! Why did he forget about this benevolent brother!
