Chapter 21: Conspiracy and Lightning Zombies

As they continued to cautiously move deeper, they rediscovered some zombies that were moving directly towards them, which were obviously different from the ones they had encountered before, they didn't even have normal clothes on them, their facial features were completely invisible, and their bodies were seriously distorted, except that they could barely be considered humanoids as a whole, it was difficult to see any human characteristics.

Marriott took a stance, exhaled and danced Shura, and a bright cold light slashed at the neck of the closest zombie. The bang seemed to be cut on a stone, but it was not completely cut off! The attacked zombie suddenly sped up several times and rushed towards Marriott, but Marriott couldn't pull Shura out at once, and it was also thanks to his experience in a hundred battles that he let go of his hand in time and retreated.

He Ming Ning Shuang waved, the sword qi shot out, and with a bang, a beautiful assassination sword qi slashed, and finally cut off the zombie's neck. Although he used an assassination sword attack, his wrist was numb from the shock, and he suddenly became nervous.

Seeing that zombie was cut down, Marriott quickly came over and pulled out Shura, and the mutation just now had stimulated the other zombies, and those zombies began to accelerate and staggered towards them. After handing it over, they found that these ancient zombies were not only invulnerable, but also infinitely powerful.

Marriott, who was wearing heavy armor, still took the lead, and He Ming disrupted the rhythm of the zombies' attacks while also containing some of the zombies' attacks. Just as he was nervous, a soul fire talisman hit a zombie's body, burning a dazzling firelight, and the zombie's speed suddenly slowed down much deeper, and He Ming found that a sword slashed over, and it was easy to cut a hole.

"These zombies may be afraid of fire!" He Ming shouted, as he continued to dodge a zombie's attack. And at this time, Yan Yi and Tao Han's spells hit these zombies one after another. Sure enough, after being hit by the scorching fire spell, the zombies' movements also slowed down, and their rock-solid bodies seemed to soften a little, and Marriott screamed violently and split a zombie with an axe. Because of the narrow passage, He Ming couldn't always find the assassination position and then attack, but he didn't have the divine power of Marriott, so he could only avoid the zombie's powerful attack and gather sword qi to attack the zombie's neck and head.

And the movement of their battle attracted more zombies in the vicinity. He Mingzheng and Marriott were concentrating on dealing with the zombies in front of them, and suddenly heard Tao Han shouting: "Watch your step!" ”

Only then did Marriott discover that it was not only the zombies that were staggering around, but also the zombies on the ground that were twisting their movements and crawling with difficulty. They have no feet and climb more slowly, but because they didn't notice them at the first time, they have already climbed to their feet. Fortunately, this time Marriott's armor was well defended, and the zombie's long black nails didn't do much damage to him, but the formation of the four was disrupted.

Marriott had to do his best to maneuver, while He Ming attacked the zombies as much as possible to cover Marriott, and Tao Han and Yan Yi unreservedly cast powerful spell attacks. However, after the initial panic passed, Marriott stabilized his position, fighting those zombies with an axe and a blow, and every ding sound repelled the zombies, and He Ming, who was holding the frost, was able to attack the zombies' vital points very accurately after Marriott stabilized the attacks of those zombies. At the same time, under the influence of the soul fire talisman and the big fireball, these zombies are indeed much easier to deal with.

With the sound of clanging and bells, the zombies whose speed was affected by the flames were finally solved. Benefiting from the zombies' sluggish movements, none of them took much damage.

The faces of the four people below were not very good-looking, and He Ming said with some gasp: "These zombies are much faster than those at the entrance of the cave, thanks to which they are still very afraid of fire, otherwise we will be in big trouble." What do we do now? ”

Marriott said without thinking: "It's all here, is it possible to go back like this?" ”

He Ming thought about it and said, "Yes, we are all here, no matter how you say it, you have to figure out where those people have dug up." ”

So they moved on, and the ancient zombies had already appeared, and those people wouldn't be able to dig far, and if they were lucky, they might be able to discover more secrets.

Against the more rigid and swift ancient zombies, they raised their vigilance and moved slowly. After several temptations, Tao Han believed that the breath of life on the human body could stimulate these zombies at a certain distance, as long as he was as careful as possible, there would be only three or four zombies attracted each time, which was not difficult to solve.

In this way, they finally reached the end of the passage, where the excavation was very new, and it seemed that it had been dug up recently. He Ming and the others examined it carefully, and realized that this place was most likely blocked by the mountains that had been collapsed by the earthquake, and the entrance to the passage was full of rubble, apparently moved after recent excavations.

They began to carefully inspect the ground. You can see a lot of mutilated bodies gathered here near the passage, and it should be impossible to get up.

"In this way, many people were trapped here after the earthquake, and they gathered here to find a way to get out, but they couldn't escape after all, and the people who were still intact later became zombies." He Ming analyzed.

Marriott said: "These zombies here should have been destroyed in the operation center, the passage still looks very empty, I personally think that the threat of these zombies is not that big, we can still solve it, the real horror is the mysterious power that turned them into zombies, and the people who deliberately dug the mine hole so deep." ”

Yan Yi, who was observing carefully, suddenly pointed to the two remains and said to them: "You see, these bodies crushed by the rubble are neither the miners who excavated nor the remains of ancient times. Judging by the clothes, it looks like I've seen it in Beechcraft. ”

Marriott frowned and said, "I do have an impression of these people's clothes, and it is estimated that they were dug up here and stoned to death here." If we can find out who they are, we can find out who is doing it. It's a pity that we've been in the barracks for a long time, and we don't know whose outfit it is. ”

Liao Xun said: "Let's just remember these things, Lord Wang said that Biqi has a character who can deal with evil demons, and he is currently making preparations." Let's dig a little deeper and see if there's anything else going back first. After all, I think our odds of winning against the demon on the orc mural are extremely low. ”

He Ming nodded, and they entered the pit that had been closed for a long time, intending to look for any other clues. After carefully walking around the interior to get rid of the scattered zombies, they observed that the mine was still bottomless.

And they also got a lot of clues, so after discussing it, they didn't think there was any need to continue to venture deeper, so they decided to go back and report to Lord Wang first.

On the way back to the outside, everyone relaxed a little, and there was no tension like looking at each step and three times. At this time, there was a sudden sound of rustling, it seemed that there were zombies crawling up somewhere, and the four of them didn't care too much, in the case of low visibility of the torches, they decided to leave first, and it was the laxity of this moment, and they paid the price.

A bolt of blue lightning shot straight from the direction of the entrance to the mine, striking the heavily armored Marriott. Because Marriott's protection is relatively complete, he has not paid much attention to defense, and the metal armor's defense against lightning is minimal, and the four of them were taken aback, and Marriott has already curled up his whole body.

He Ming held his sword and ran in that direction, and Yan Yi directly threw a big fireball, and the fireball illuminated that side. As a person who has studied magic, He Ming knows that thunder and lightning are generally attacked outdoors through magic, gathering high-altitude magic power, and ordinary level mages can't be used in a small space like a mine, and only a magic master can use his own mana to play a more powerful flash movie in this kind of room.

So he immediately thought that they were plotted against someone, and they were also masters! Anger filled his mind, and a terrible thought arose in his heart, and the direction of movement changed several times in a short period of time, approaching the direction where the lightning was coming, and sure enough, another lightning bolt shot towards him, and because He Ming was changing direction, it was empty.

At this time, Yan Yi threw a huge fireball again, which exploded on the attacker's side, illuminating an area nearby, and the black hand of this attack also directly met their eyes: a person with pale skin, distorted facial features, tattered clothes hanging on his body, as if he would be weathered at any time, blue light in his eyes, very terrifying zombies in the middle, and several rock-solid pitch-black zombies guarding it.

Not human! He Ming breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, which calmed him down, and at the same time he realized that those pitch-black zombies were no longer attacking in a disorderly manner, but were protected around the magic zombies as a meat shield, and forcibly attacking would definitely be a loss.

Seeing someone approaching, the target of the magic zombie became He Ming, only to see that the blue light in his eyes was brighter, and several zombies blocked the direction of He Ming's attack, and the magic zombie shot at him with lightning again. Fortunately, it still took a little time to cast the spell, and this time it was able to dodge it again, He Ming shouted as he moved at high speed: "Attack them with fire charms and see if you can slow them down!" ”

Before he could speak, the big fireball and fire talisman had already been thrown over this side, but fortunately, He Ming was fast and would not be injured by mistake. But those zombies are also amazingly strong, and although they slow down after a few hits, they can still stagger and move without falling. So that He Ming was still unable to attack. Spell attacks are all blocked by ordinary zombies, and magic zombies cannot be attacked.

The magic zombie turned to a lightning bolt and attacked Yan Yi, but fortunately, the distance was far enough, and the movement was very obvious in the firelight, Yan Yi avoided this attack in advance. Now that they couldn't hurt the terrifying magic zombie, and attacking the ordinary zombies in front of them would make them the target of the magic zombies, He Ming began to get anxious.
