Chapter 708: Using Corpses as Soldiers
A scuffle ended in the rain, and as the masked monster's head fell to the ground, the white fox also came out of the sea of knowledge, unable to sense any murderous aura around him.
"There aren't many of them, and judging by this, they only appear in small border towns." Xu Ning lowered his head and tore off half of his mask, carefully examining the face in the rain.
"This guy with a mask has been completely controlled by the zombie white worm, but his body should be very flexible, and the level should not be too low!" The white fox said.
"I should have reached the peak of the Emperor Realm, but because I was parasitized in my body by this strange worm, I reduced my ability. It's really worth the loss, huh! Xu Ning said coldly.
"Not really, you open his chest and take a look." The white fox tore at the masked man's clothes with his front paws.
Xu Ning will be suspicious, he doesn't know what the white fox means, anyway, the person is dead, it doesn't matter what he does. He used the tip of his sword to strip the man's chest, and the front of the entire chest was exposed, and there was a shocking scar!
"Look at this wound, it should be a fatal wound. Although it has been stitched up, there is no sign of healing, which means that the person has long since died, and it is only resurrected with the help of the ability of the zombie white worm. After the resurrection, the strength naturally decreased, but on the whole, it was still at least ninety percent! The white fox said.
What a zombie white worm! Xu Ningyi frowned, "Things are getting more and more complicated, being able to find the master who died in battle before his life is also very human, who is the person behind this?!" ”。
Using corpses as soldiers is not a good kind!
The white fox circled around the corpse, especially the head that was cut off by Xu Ning, and looked at it more carefully. Xu Ning couldn't help but ask, "Did you find something again?" ”
"No, it's just strange that this person has been dead for a long time. How did the corpse survive so well? You must know that zombie white worms do not dislike corpses, and they prefer corpses that are about to decay rather than intact corpses. This facilitates their hatching and manipulates the walking dead. ”
Xu Ning frowned and said, "I understand what you mean." That is, the bodies of these masters were not exhumed from graves, but were prepared upon realization. This kind of idea is really bizarre, who would have predicted that the corpse would be used in the future? ”
"No, I want to say more than that." The white fox shook his head gently.
"Oh?"
The white fox jumped onto Xu Ning's shoulder and asked Xu Ning to pick up the head on the ground and take a good look.
"Do you know this person?"
"I don't know."
"Is there anyone you've heard of like this?"
"This. It doesn't seem to be, and I know nothing more than a few masters. Xu Ning shook his head.
"That's right. The martial veins of the Emperor Realm are not low in the Soul Continent! You don't even know this person, what does it mean? Maybe when this person was alive, it was nothing at all, but after a certain method, the ordinary body also carried a high ability, and then resurrected with a zombie white worm! Other words. These people are not pre-prepared corpses at all, but artificially created corpses! ”
Xu Ning was shocked by the words of the white fox!
Presently. This idea is incredible, but it is also the most reasonable!
Killing innocents, using corpses to refer to zombie white worms, masters who appeared inexplicably, this qiē developed to the end, and can only be explained in one way: someone wants to build a powerful corpse army!
"Uncle's. Are the Yin soldiers crossing the border?! Xu Ning said angrily.
"Xu Ning, what are you going to do next?" White Fox asked.
"I want to go back to Breeze City as much as I can! Qingfeng City is located in the interior of the Dongzhou Empire, and if something happens there, it means that things are a little more severe than what we have seen. If there is no reaction at all, perhaps it is just some cult organization that did it. ”
Not sure why. When it comes to words like cults, the first thing that comes to Xu Ning's mind is the strange girl tribe, as well as Hu Dajun, Miao Qing and other people.
The thought of these people makes him physically and mentally exhausted, as if he feels like he has become a cleaner who sweeps up garbage.
"And what are you going to do with the people here?" The white fox looked around and said.
"The people here should have been intimidated by Wang Jindao's stupid pig, and now he doesn't know where to go, and the others have also been subdued, for the sake of safety, the civilians are better to leave."
"Then we'd better leave as much as we can." The white fox said.
Xu Ning nodded and said, "Let's hurry up and find Qianlong!" ”
Qianlong had already rotated more than ten times over the entire Ping'an City, and only after confirming that there were no angry people did she return to the city. With the end of a fierce battle, the entire Ping'an City seemed to have found a sense of safety, and after Xu Ning issued a notice, people began to prepare to leave.
Most of the people who live on the border do it to risk their money and make some money, and since the city is no longer safe, it is not a pity to abandon it. As for the luggage, almost every household packed it up, and regardless of the rainy season, they immediately poured out of Heian Castle with gold and silver.
In less than the afternoon, almost all the gasping people in the entire Ping'an City were gone, Xu Ning and Qianlong were sitting in a simple wine shop, the white fox nested on the rough bench, its fur had all dried up, and it was sleeping lazily by the stove on the side at the moment.
This kind of liquor shop is just erected against one wall, on the side of the street, so that it can shelter from the wind and rain.
"The rain will get heavier and heavier, and if it's cloudy, it's going to be a problem." Xu Ning looked at the sky and said a little worriedly.
"Don't you like this kind of rainy day the most?" Qianlong said suddenly.
"Oh, did I say that?"
"When you're on the roadway, whenever it rains, you're on deck."
"It's just boring at sea, but if you have nothing to do, it's nice to have rain." Xu Ning got up and lifted the teapot on the stove to refill the water for Qianlong.
"The elves of the Magic Continent have never sat so leisurely when they are not eating." "Ever since I entered this continent, I've always felt very uncomfortable. ”
"That's because the places where the elves live are very close to nature, and the humans on the soul continent all live in artificial cities." Xu Ning smiled slightly and said, "I don't have that kind of lush deep forest by my side. There are buildings and figures everywhere, as well as animals that don't know magic, and you'll naturally find it hard to get used to. ”
"Maybe that's the reason, by the way, didn't you say that the Xu family is fun? There are a lot of rare beasts in the back mountain! What's it called? ”
"It's not a rare beast...... Xu Ning said helplessly, "it's a demon beast." It's not fun, it's dangerous! ”
Xu Ning told Qianlong about the idea of the white fox, but Qianlong didn't seem to care, for her, the appearance of bad guys only needs to be eliminated, come one to kill one, come two to kill a pair, don't need to think about it. Xu Ning regretted using the power of the Elf King to erase her memory, and forced to graft the memory of the Elf Goddess Qianlong on it. The resulting new "Qianlong" always gives people a sense of inappropriate high-profile, which is completely different from the original elf temperament.
But it's okay, anyway, she is now the only person of elven blood on the True Soul Continent.
"Qingfeng City, even if it is the most recent way, there are still more than a thousand miles to go, and it may take us three or four days to get there."
"Wouldn't it be faster if you took the waterway?"
"All the waterways from here to Qingfeng City are countercurrent, I'm worried about any more chaos!" Xu Ning said with a sigh.
Qianlong shook his little pointed ears, after a killing. Instead, she seemed calmer. Xu Ning also suddenly realized that the clothes on himself and Qianlong should be changed. Now that he is still wearing the robes of the Magic Continent, it is no wonder that others look awkward.
There should be some tailor shops in this city, before leaving, seize and prepare some things, as long as you embark on the journey, you hope to return to Qingfeng City in one go.
Half an hour later. The rain was a little lighter, but the sky still showed no signs of clearing. Xu Ning went to the city to look for some supplies, and entrusted Qianlong and the white fox to go together to find horses and vehicles. In terms of soma skills, Xu Ning is ashamed of himself, and Qianlong can even talk to animals. The horses she found were definitely the best.
That's why he had to wait until half an hour later, after Xu Ning was looking for what he needed along the street, he immediately set a fire.
This peaceful city, if you really want peace, you must destroy it first.
The zombie white worm is a very parasitic thing, the larger the individual will die faster after leaving the host, but the smaller the one, the easier it is to shift the target, and even hide in some corners and crevices. And it's the rainy season, so it's not difficult to survive. One fire is enough to burn the adults and eggs.
However, this is only one of the things he has encountered, Wang Jindao's stupid pig has already fled, and there are many people like him nearby, it is unknown, and it is not an overnight thing to stop him, and one or two people can't do it.
"Let's go back first! At this time, what is needed is the power of unity! Xu Ning looked at the sky and said.
After tossing and turning for more than an hour, the sky was getting darker and darker, and the rain showed no signs of stopping, but the entire Heian Castle had become a sea of fire. The huge flames burned out the water vapor in the air, but it looked clean, dry and comfortable, Xu Ning and Qianlong converged at the gate of the city, more than a dozen high-headed horses, all of them were excellent stallions, lined up under Qianlong's command.
"I guess I found it from Wang Jindao's house, right?" Xu Ning asked.
"Yes, his backyard is actually very large, and there are a lot of people in it, and I have already let them go." Qianlong said.
"I prepared two carriages, and for the next few days, there may be very little rest." Xu Ning looked at the sky and said.
"I don't care, as long as the horses can stand it." Qianlong said.
The white fox got into the carriage without a sound, curled up in the corner and continued to sleep. Since landing on land, Xu Ning has found that the white fox is particularly prone to sleepiness. Do the math, the current season should be the time for animals to transform their fur, and the hair on the white fox has begun to fall off.
"Let's go!" Xu Ning turned over and jumped on a horse, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and galloped forward quickly! (To be continued......)
