The night breeze is cool and the stars are shining. [.starter]

Under the starlight, Li Qing hung a short sword from his waist, carried a longbow, and held a steel spear in his hand, standing on the tall courtyard wall of the temple courtyard.

Angelina held a shield in her left hand and her short sword in her right hand, standing side by side with Li Qing.

Angelina did not express any objection to the bow and arrow that Li Qing carried her on her back.

After mourning her companion Giant Eagle, she saw that Li Qing was fully armed and asked him what he was going to do.

"I'm going to kill the living corpse." Li Qing replied: "Although there are many living corpses, as long as you keep killing them, one day, you will be able to kill them cleanly." ”

Angelina got the artifact in her hand, and she was eager to try it, and when she heard the words, she immediately decided to go with Li Qing to kill her.

The two of them stood on the courtyard wall, looking at the large group of living corpses that were blocked by the sacred aura of the temple ten meters away.

During the day, when Li Qing and Chu Lingfeng rushed into the temple, they attracted thousands of living corpses to gather around the temple. Those living corpses roared and howled, making an earth-shattering noise, and attracted tens of thousands of living corpses. Angelina later attempted to storm the temple, and although she flew through the sky on a giant eagle, she again attracted thousands of living corpses.

As a result, the number of living corpses gathered around the temple was no less than twenty thousand.

Until dark, the herd of living corpses had not dispersed. They wandered around the temple, wandering mindlessly like undead. Occasionally, there was a ghostly howl.

Although the 20,000 living corpses are distributed on all sides of the temple, and the area of the temple complex is relatively large, even if there are living corpses on one side, the number is several thousand.

Thousands of living corpses, dressed in rags, with hideous faces, blurred flesh and blood, and strange shapes, gathered together in dense clusters, and the horrific situation was shocking, and the scalp was numb.

Angelina had long been accustomed to such a scene, and introduced it to Li Qing calmly: "Mulan City is the largest city in the vicinity for hundreds of miles, and it is the capital of the Duchy of Tumen. The successive Tumen Grand Dukes were relatively open-minded, attached importance to commerce, and did not discriminate against foreign races, allowing foreign races to settle in the city, and the agriculture around Mulan City was also very developed, and the food supply was sufficient, so Mulan City was very prosperous, and the population of all ethnic groups living in the city was more than 200,000 ......."

With a permanent population of more than 200,000 people, it can only be regarded as a small city in China. But in the Kalundo continent, with the level of productivity in this world, it can have a population of 200,000, which is already a very developed big city.

You must know that the most prosperous and powerful empire in the entire Calondo continent has a population of only more than 1.2 million in its capital. Mulan City is only the capital of a principality, and it can have a population of more than 200,000, which is already quite good.

However, before the disaster, the population of more than 200,000 people was the pride of Mulan City. It represents the glory of Mulan City. But in the aftermath of a disaster, such a large population represents a catastrophe that is difficult to resist.

Angelina calmly recounted in a calm tone, "I don't know what the specific situation was when the plague broke out in Mulan City. However, judging from the situation in front of us, the vast majority of the more than 200,000 people in the entire Mulan City have become living corpses. ”

Li Qing nodded and agreed with her statement.

The living corpses on the continent of Calondo are not as faltering and slow as the zombies in Resident Evil. The living corpses of the Calondo continent can run and jump, are fast and furious, and are extremely aggressive.

Therefore, even if the plague first broke out, the number of infected people was not large, and with the violent and rapid attack of those living corpses, the plague continued to spread and the number of living corpses would increase exponentially.

There are also many psychological problems in this.

For example, there are many people who see their family, friends, feudal lords, and courtiers rushing towards them inexplicably, and their first reaction is never to grab a weapon and cut the other party over. Rather, there will inevitably be an inexplicable and bewildered process.

This inexplicable and helpless often loses the opportunity to escape, and is thrown to the ground by the living corpse, infected into a new living corpse, and continues to spread the plague.

It's like Li Qing, if he sees Su Su or Scarlett rushing towards him like crazy, his first reaction will definitely not kick them away. Instead, they might take the initiative to hug them and ask them what they were crazy about.

The swift attack of the living corpses, coupled with the mishandling caused by those psychological factors, caused many strong people to not escape.

By the time people reacted and realized what had happened, the spread of the plague had become unstoppable like a chain reaction of snow-capped mountain collapses.

In a city like Mulan City, where more than 200,000 people live, there are definitely not many people who can escape after the plague. The zombies in the city are conservatively estimated to be as many as more than 100,000 or 200,000.

"Living corpses can't see, they can only see a hundred meters away at most. But it is sensitive to sound and is easily attracted to various sounds. Sensitive to the smell of fresh blood, the nose is more ...... than a dog."

Hearing this, Li Qing couldn't help but wonder: "You rode Lu Xian to fly in the sky during the day, and with the visual power of a living corpse, it stands to reason that you shouldn't be able to see you." Can they still hear Rucian as he flies? The hearing of a living corpse can't be so good, right? Besides, Lucian is a flying monster, extremely flexible in the air, and can advance and retreat freely. It's so good at flying, it should be able to control it without making too much noise, right? ”

When Li Qing asked like this, Angelina's face suddenly turned red, her eyes looked to the side, and she squeaked inexplicably: "That, that's because ...... Because of that, it was discovered, and it was an accident! ”

"Because of that?" Li Qing looked dazed: "Which one is that?" What accident? ”

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered what Angelina had said, that living corpses are sensitive to the smell of fresh blood, and that their noses are more intelligent than those of dogs. At that moment, he suddenly realized the key point, and said vaguely: "It turned out to be an accident!" Uh, I see......"

Angelina is a girl, and girls, there are always a few days a month......

It's no wonder that she is embarrassed, embarrassed, squeaky, and vague.

Angelina glanced at Li Qing angrily, skipped the topic, and continued to introduce the characteristics of living corpses: "Although ordinary living corpses run fast, jump high, and are not afraid of death, as long as they do not form a scale, they are not difficult to deal with. ”

"But some special living corpses should not be underestimated. Those living corpses are all mutated from all kinds of demonic beasts, as well as the powerhouses of various races, which are faster, more powerful, and more difficult to kill.

"Most of those strong mutated living corpses still have mutated spell-like abilities. It even has a killing instinct that is no less than that of predatory beasts such as tigers and leopards. They don't just rampage like ordinary living corpses, but they know how to lurk patiently and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack. We call those special living corpses 'Living Corpse Warlocks'. ”

"The Living Necromancer?" Li Qingdao: "It's the kind of living corpse that launched a long-range attack on you from the ground during the day?" ”

"Yes." Angelina nodded and said, "The spell-like abilities of living corpse warlocks are generally quite monotonous. Even if it is a high-level mage who mutates into a living corpse warlock after being infected with the plague, the types of similar spells are very rare, far less abundant than the spells they had in their lifetime. There are only a handful of them. However, the Living Corpse Warlock's spell-like abilities, while monotonous, are quite powerful. There are also some mutated spell-like abilities, which are even more difficult to prevent. ”

Li Qingdao: "For example, the kind of stealth attack that injured you and the giant eagle during the day?" ”

Angelina nodded and said, "It should be some kind of energy shock, invisible, silent, weird and difficult to prevent." It also has a detonation effect when hit, which is very powerful.

"If he hadn't been hit by that stealth attack, Lucian wouldn't have been seriously injured and died. And if that attack hadn't hit Lucien, who had absorbed most of the blast impact, I might have died. It was Lucien who blocked that deadly attack for me, and I was able to storm the temple and obtain the artifact. ”

Speaking of this, a flash of remembrance flashed in her eyes, and then a light of hatred burst out.

Shaking her head, she sighed lightly, lowered her eyelids, wiped away the memory and hatred in her eyes, and continued: "It's a pity, I don't know which living corpse launched that attack on Lu Dao, and I want to avenge Lu Xi'an, but I can't find a target. I've never encountered that kind of invisible energy shock before, and I don't know what kind of living corpse warlock has such terrifying abilities. ”

That ability is terrifying.

Invisible and silent, it is difficult to resist, and it is quite powerful.

You must know that Angelina's giant eagle companion Lucian is a fourth-order demonic beast, with a physique equivalent to an eighth-level human powerhouse, and a strong vitality. The feathers on the body also have defensive power that is not inferior to that of the knight's plate armor.

But even so, the stealth impact still hit Lucian hard with a single blow, causing it to suffer fatal damage that was difficult to recover.

If the blow was on Angelina at that time, then with Angelina's strength, she would definitely not be spared, and she would be crushed on the spot.

"When we kill the living corpses later, remember not to leave the protection of the temple."

Angelina advised: "Although I now have the Divine Blessing Shield in my hand, with the Divine Blessing Shield's automatic blocking ability, that invisible energy impact can no longer sneak attack me, but this ability of the Divine Blessing Shield can only protect the shield bearer himself, and cannot take care of others." If that invisible energy blast is unleashed against you, I can't help you defend against it. ”

"Understood." Li Qing nodded and said, "I'll stay within the protection of the temple later, and kill the living corpses with a spear." ”

Although he carried Angelina's bow and arrows, he did not intend to shoot the living corpse with the bow and arrow.

After all, arrows are limited, and it is difficult to recover them after shooting a living corpse, so he does not plan to use a bow and arrow unless he encounters a living corpse, wasting precious arrows.

After talking about the precautions, Li Qing and Angelina jumped off the courtyard wall and walked towards the group of living corpses hovering ten meters away.

The living corpse outside the ten meter boundary of the temple realized the proximity of Li Qing and Angelina. They roared and were eager to try at Li Qing and Angelina, but they didn't dare to rush into the sanctuary of the temple, and they suddenly became restless one by one.

Li Qing strode to the edge of the invisible boundary, stood within the boundary, held the gun in both hands, and stabbed with a shot.

With a pop, the sharp tip of the spear pierced through the forehead of a living corpse, revealing the back of the head. He twisted the barrel of the gun and stirred it with all his might, stirring the brains of the living corpse to shreds.

Drawing his spear, the living corpse fell straight to the ground, completely killed.

Li Qing grinned, stabbed three times in a row, puffed three times, and stabbed three living corpses to death.

The Black Knight's powerful natural ability made Li Qing able to use extremely strong marksmanship for the first time with a cold weapon spear in his hand. Every shot is stabbed out quickly and accurately, quickly and steadily.

Li Qing shot again, and three shots in a row. The steel spear went out to sea like a white dragon, sweeping away the cold light.

The living corpses fell one after another, and the darkness devouring talent was activated, plundering the flesh/body vitality of the living corpses, turning them into dark energy, constantly strengthening Li Qing's attributes.
