Chapter 55: Traces of the Undead
Two hours later, under a hill southeast of Ramil Fortress, four figures were searching through the dense bushes, it was Sanssouci, Long Tian, Nantian, and the Divine Beast Dumb.
"Young master, there's a small village ahead, let's go check it out, shall we?" Dumb saw the smoke in the distance and proposed.
Worry-free nodded, and just wanted to step forward, but his two arms were grabbed by Long Tian and Nan Tian respectively.
"Wait a minute!" The voices of the two men sounded tacitly at the same time, and the two were also stunned by this scene, exchanged glances and let go of the worries in unison.
Carefree looked at the two strangely and asked, "What's the matter, why do you have to wait?" ”
Nantian didn't answer the worry-free question, but nodded to Long Tian, and walked forward alone, leaving them far behind.
Wu Wu was very puzzled by this scene, but Long Tian smiled and patted her on the shoulder and explained: "Nantian is like this, he doesn't talk much, he is caring about you, but I don't know how to express it." Now that he's gone in to investigate, we'll wait outside the village for a while. When he comes out, we'll go in together! ”
After listening to Long Tian's explanation, he suddenly realized that he felt a warmth in his heart, and suddenly felt some closeness to the big brother who was silent and gloomy, and looked at the figure that was getting farther and farther away in the distance, and secretly made up his mind that he would do his best to help this big brother drive away the necromancer in the South Wind Empire and save his people.
After a long time, Nan Tian, who looked alert, came back to them.
Looking at his frowning brows, he asked anxiously, "How is it, did you find anything?" ”
"The village is empty!" In a few simple and direct words, Nan Tian expressed his concerns.
"Something is wrong, although the village is not big, it can't be without people." Worry-free also said worriedly.
"Hehe, young master, you are really thoughtful, and your eyes are like torches." Dumb lost no time in patting the carefree sycophant.
Listening to Dumb's flattering words, he pouted his lips without worry.
"Well, there is an evil aura in the air here, although it is faint, but I am familiar with this breath, and I can be sure that the necromancer who snatched the earth elemental spirit in front of me, and the strange situation here must have something to do with that guy." Seeing that Carefree looked unhappy, Dumb hurriedly straightened up.
"Hmph, these hateful necromancers, snatching earth elemental elves to provoke war between humans and demonic beasts, and doing these hurtful things everywhere, we must not let him go this time." Worry-free turned his head to Dumb and said, "Dumb, sense the location of the earth elemental elf, it should be where the necromancer is." ”
"It's in the mountains ahead." I closed my eyes and sensed it for a moment, then said.
After a while, Carefree and Dumb stood in front of a cave, "Young Master is here, there may be a fierce battle in the Stay, you always have to protect yourself." ”
"Well, although I can't help with this kind of fight, it's still okay not to drag you down." Carefree and confidently nodded.
Carefree and Dumb walked cautiously, and their boots did not make a sound when they stepped on the ground. The cave is deep and long, and the water drops from the rocks make a ticking sound.
Suddenly, green spots of light appeared in front of him, "Young master, there is a situation." Dumb whispered.
"Hmm." Carefree nodded at Dumb.
The two of them walked in slowly, and when they got closer, they finally saw what it was. It turned out that a large group of bats were swooping down on a corpse, which had almost become human. Hearing Carefree and Dumb walk in, the bats opened their mouths, bared their fangs, and squeaked, as if cheering for the sight of a new delicacy.
"The little blood bat dares to be presumptuous in front of Uncle Ben, hum!" Dumb snorted coldly and released the aura of the divine beast, and the bats were so frightened that they hurriedly flew to the top of the passage, staring at the two of them with red eyes, revealing greed, but they didn't dare to attack.
"Looking at the clothes, this should be a villager, it is estimated that it is the missing person in the village, it must be a ghost made by an abominable necromancer, it is too cruel." Carefree looked at the wreckage and said indignantly.
"Young Master, the Earth Elemental Spirit is inside!" Just when she was feeling resentful, Dumb's words caught her attention.
Following the direction of Dumb's finger, there seemed to be a gray-black mist in the air in front of him lingering from the dead villagers, drifting towards the depths of the cave.
Since there are only green points of light in the cave, the surrounding scene is not real under the green light, so Wu Wu had to take out the night pearl lighting.
Under the holy light of the night pearl, the bats scattered and fled, and Wuwu saw the gray mist more realistically.
The gray mist converged into a long line that stretched into the depths of the cave.
"Not good!" Before Wu Wu could react, Nantian's exclamation had already sounded.
A similar scene occurred on the battlefield outside Camille, where all the villagers on the ground who had been dead and had long since died and smoked gray fog came to life, yes, just like the corpses of those warriors, and the villagers all staggered to their feet, their eyes flashing with a deep red light.
Under the illumination of the Pearl of Sanssouci Night, the cold air in their mouths became more obvious, and they approached Sanssouci and the others step by step.
These people were originally helpless villagers, so even if they became undead puppets, they were not strong and would only use physical attacks, so they were not difficult to deal with.
"Wow"
"Wow"
With two sounds of the scabbard coming out of the sheath, Long Tian and Nan Tian had already drawn their long swords, and the sharp tip of the sword pointed at the villager who was swinging his fist at the carefree villager.
A sword flashed, and the heads of the villagers in front of him rolled to Wuwu's feet, and they were so frightened that they were defenseless and immediately teleported away.
The villager's eyes were wide open until death, and the severed head had been separated from his body, but the huge scar did not shed a trace of blood.
The moment he lost his head, his body was still standing straight, and then due to the kinetic energy just now, he slammed it after taking a step forward and fell heavily to the ground.
There were still a few tooth marks on his wrinkled gray-brown neck, which showed that the blood in his body had been drained by the bats.
After teleporting away without worry, he immediately took out a magic wand and a light-based purification magic - holy light to cast.
Under the illumination of the holy light, these already fragile undead suddenly stood still for a second, and their reactions became even more sluggish.
Without giving them any chance, with a wave of the Sanssouci Staff, several wind blades unfolded, facing the weak bodies of the villagers, even if they were blessed by undead magic, the physical strength of these villagers still could not be compared with the real warriors, and each fall of the wind blade would bring a villager's head.
For these undead puppets who have lost their minds, Carefree has no time to give excess sympathy, and they are even faster and more accurate, without any mercy.
Long Tian and Tiannan on the side did not lag behind at all, and they poured their fighting energy into the big sword, and with each swing of the sword, the heads of the undead fell one after another, and then overtook these undead puppets.
In just three minutes, hundreds of villagers who had turned into undead were slaughtered by them without worrying about it, leaving only heads and headless corpses.
Fortunately, such a killing did not bring a flood of blood, so Sanssono was not disgusted by such a scene.
The three of them looked at the dumb god who was there a little out of breath, and they were speechless.
They fought hard, and the most powerful master just sat on the sidelines and watched.
The three of them looked at each other, and the voice of worry-free yin sounded: "Dumb, do you think it's okay to let me, the master, work so hard, but you are watching from the sidelines?" ”
Dumb's spine was chilled by his worry-free words, but he still stood up righteously: "Master, I'm doing this for your own good."
Before he could finish speaking, Carefree slapped him on the shoulder, in fact, Carefree wanted to pat him on the head to help him wake up, but he was not tall enough so he was patted on the shoulder.
Feeling that the master was really unhappy, Dumb explained: "Master, you have to believe me, our Warcraft are all in strength in battle, I think those undead puppets are not strong, just for you to practice!" ”
Listening to Dumb's words, Carefree was slightly stunned, and thought: Yes, only by constantly fighting will you improve your strength faster.
glanced at Dumb's cheap appearance, and Wu Wu couldn't say what he wanted to complain about.
Seeing that Dumb Wu Wu somewhat agreed with his words, he patted his chest proudly and said, "These little undead puppets will be handed over to you, and when you meet that necromancer inside, leave them to me!" ”
Listening to the boastful remarks of a certain divine beast, worry-free and the others had black lines on their faces, she thought about it, and said to Dumb seriously: "Wait a while, you stay aside first, let us fight against the necromancer first, it's really not okay for you to make a move." ”
While talking about worry-free, he looked at Long Tian and Nantian, and the two of them understood what she meant and nodded at her, expressing their approval.
During the conversation, after Dumb used earth magic to bury these innocent villagers, Sanssouci and the others continued to walk towards the interior of the cave.
This is the second time that Sanssouci has walked in such a dark environment, and it is also the second time she has encountered a swarm of bats, perhaps because of the natural fear of darkness in women, she blamed all the mistakes on the necromancer, and secretly cursed them N times in her heart.
Unlike the last time she was looking for a way out alone, this time she had a partner, and her heart suddenly settled down a lot.
She stayed in the middle of Longtian and Nantian, and she was still a bored dumb beside her, and the three of them formed a triangle to protect her in the middle.
Looking at the three partners around him, a shallow smile appeared on Sansso's face.
