Chapter 51: The Surge
You go and see what's going on outside, how it's chaotic, and if anyone dares to disturb the morale of the military, they will correct the law on the spot!
Pauline, who was standing in the attic discussing the deployment with Vaux, heard the cries for help from outside, and thought that some unlawless relationship was messing with his companions, and ordered the guards on the side.
Before the guard could go down to investigate the situation, a soldier with a panting breath and a frightened face rushed up from outside the door and cried out to Paulin, "My lord... Adult··· Oh no... Oh no... That·· That corpse was a deceitful corpse... Positive... Positive... Slaughtering our colleagues!
What the? Bolin secretly said no, and hurriedly rushed out.
As soon as he stepped down the stairs, Pauline was stunned by the image in front of him, like a purgatory, the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, the bright red liquid spread wantonly on the ground, and a man covered in blood was squirming on his stomach and squirming on a corpse, and his mouth was chewing. The demon corpse that heard the footsteps hurriedly turned his head to look, perhaps sensing the breath on Bolin's body, the demon corpse did not rush towards Bolin, and roared at Bolin with a bloody mouth, as if swearing the sovereignty of his prey.
Fraudulent corpses, dark red pupils, good eating flesh and blood, is this... Demon Corpse! How is it possible, there are still demon corpses in the Black Iron Mountain Range, and this demon corpse that did not take the initiative to attack obviously retains some of the strength of his life!
What Pauline never expected was that this kind of failed product, known as the son of the devil, which had only been seen in school textbooks, would actually appear in his own territory.
The terrible thing about this demon corpse is that the demon virus it carries can assimilate almost any creature, as long as it is bitten or scratched, even if it is only scratched a little flesh, whether it is a corpse or a living person, as long as the head is not destroyed, the virus parasitic on the corpse can assimilate it into a bloodthirsty and painless demon corpse. Therefore, the demons used this characteristic to release a batch of demon corpses into the Kamigawa Continent, as long as they were not killed at the first time, they could infect a million-level demon corpse army in just a few days.
Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Pauline's forehead. Although this kind of monster is a failed product created by the demon virus, ordinary demon corpses basically have no wisdom at all, only the primitive instinct of desperately eating flesh and blood, but it is precisely because of the existence of this cannon fodder-level demon corpse that demons can easily destroy one large human base after another in the battles of the old era.
And this is not the most difficult problem, after the infected human or demonic beasts transform into demon corpses, both strength and physical strength will be greatly improved, some martial artists or demonic beasts with a certain strength can still have a certain chance to retain the ability of life after becoming a demon corpse, the higher the level and the more strength is retained, and even individual demon corpses can evolve by sucking flesh and blood, awaken memory, and become an intelligent race in the demon corpse.
And the Shaq in front of him was obviously infected and parasitic after being scratched by some kind of demon corpse and still retained some strength, otherwise it would be impossible to kill a few soldiers so quickly.
If that's the case, then the dark shadows on the plains must be a group of demon corpses... And there is at least one commander-level demon corpse above the third order.... Such a conclusion made Pauline himself take two steps back.
Lord Castle, where are the monsters? I've brought someone to support you!
Hearing the footsteps descending the stairs from behind, Pollin yelled at Volks' group without looking back: "All the people stand back for me, you are not its opponent!"
Looking at the few corpses lying on the ground, I am afraid that only I can solve this demon corpse in a short period of time, and the longer it drags on, the larger the team of demon corpses will become, hoping that I can hold on for a while with my current injury, saying that Bolin took the lead in rushing towards the demon corpse.
Talent "Skin Hardening"!
A layer of pale yellow vitality emerged from Bolin's body, and then disappeared above the epidermis, and he pulled out the long sword at his waist and slashed at the demon corpse. Not to be outdone, the demon corpse that was attacked bounced off the ground with a whoosh, roared at Polin and pounced on him.
Hmph, it's a brainless monster!
Seeing that Bolin did not retreat but advanced, the strength in his hand was a little heavier, and the long sword slashed on the opponent's shoulder, as if it was cut on leather, and the long sword made of fine iron actually only cut a wound a few centimeters deep, and it was stuck on the bone, and the dark red flesh and blood were clearly visible.
Damn, after turning into a demon corpse, the defense has actually increased so much!
"Roar"
The painless, fearless demon corpse ignored the wounds on its body and struck Pauline's neck with a pair of sharp claws.
So fast!
Seeing this, of course, Bolin would not let the other party succeed, and it was too late for the long sword to come back, so Bolin had to draw out an arm to block the front, and at the same time kicked the demon corpse in the abdomen. The demon corpse flew upside down in an instant, and Pollin was also shocked back a few steps by the other party, and the sleeve of his left hand was torn apart by the claws, and eight blood marks on his exposed arm were staggered horizontally.
After landing on the ground, the demon corpse quickly jumped up from the ground and rushed towards Bolin again as if it was nothing. Shaking his somewhat numb arm, Pollin was secretly glad that he had just used his talent for skin hardening in advance, otherwise he would have killed himself just now.
Brute, don't think that after years of degeneration of labor and capital, you can ride on my head and!
Sword Technique "Triple Slash"
With a roar, Bolin lifted the long sword and rushed towards the rushing demon corpse, the pale yellow vitality was attached to the long sword, three sword lights flashed, and the demon corpse that passed by Bolin still maintained a forward posture, but before he could run a few steps, his head rolled to the ground, and then his body fell to the ground heavily, and the upper half of his body fell out of the way.
City Lord, what kind of monster is this, wasn't Shaq completely dead just now, how could he still burst out and kill people? Seeing that the battle was over, Vaux hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
Looking at the corpses on the ground that had been divided into three sections, and the remains of several soldiers scattered around them, Vaux only felt a churn in his stomach, but his dignity as the boss of the city guard made him endure it.
It's a demon corpse, I guess you won't forget the name of this group of monsters at your age of forty, right? Pauline asked rhetorically.
What the? This... This·· Is this a demon corpse? Hearing Polin's words, Vaux's face suddenly turned a lot pale, and the kind of monster that existed in history actually appeared in front of him, which made him unbelievable for a while.
Looking at the few new officers behind Volks, Pauline couldn't help frowning, how could such a defensive force face the disaster and battle that was about to come. Then he shook his head self-deprecatingly, the days of peace have been too long, and even he is intoxicated with them, let alone them!
Volks immediately sent someone to cremate all the corpses on the ground, and the sacrificed soldiers were given double solace, and then sent a few reconnaissance teams of at least one order or more to find out the specific situation of the surrounding demon corpses for me, and in addition, all the weapons that could be used were put on the city wall for me, and the first red alert was issued to the people in the city.
Secretary Liu, you personally go and inform the Martial Arts Guild's President Rosis to come here for a meeting, and the leaders of the major adventure groups are also called over, there is not much time left for me, if you don't want the city to be ruined and your wife is separated, you can do as I instruct, and then it will be a tough battle.
Vaux, who can sit on the boss of the city guards, naturally will not be stupid to go there, and he also values his life very much, and after understanding the seriousness of the matter, he and Pauline retreated, and hurriedly went down to work.
In less than a minute, Pollin saw a red firework rise from the Black Iron City, blooming in the sky, followed by a piercing siren echoing through the city......
