Act IV: Footsteps of Death

"Out of here?"

To be honest, he was indeed relieved when Su Chen heard the news. That being said, it's not a normal game to confront a necromancer who can easily convert a village into a dead realm in a beginner's quest - unless it's a perverted version of a similar Souls series. However, not having to deal with the last terrifying necromancer did not mean that Su Chen was safe, because the undead could be said to be a special product that would inevitably appear after the necromancer was wreaking havoc.

Su Chen was unusually sure that he would see the undead in this village.

"We've wasted too much time, now we should go inside this village." The square-faced warrior said, "At least make sure you can find supplies here." ”

"Understood...... the inch-headed female warrior also nodded, and then, as if tacitly, all of them took out their weapons. The square-faced warrior wields a broad-bladed heavy sword, a weapon that can be held with one hand or used as a two-handed heavy sword to slash. The fact that he would choose such a heavy weapon proved that the square-faced warrior was a fierce man with extraordinary strength, and based on Su Chen's few rumored skill points, he could confirm that this heavy sword was a magic weapon.

And the weapons of the remaining few people were relatively shabby, which also made Su Chen understand that the square-faced warrior in front of him was probably the strongest one.

I'm going to follow him in a moment. Su Chen thought in his heart.

The slaughtered village exuded an instinctive sense of fear, and several people fell silent after actually stepping into the village that had become a dead realm. In this solemn environment as if a big war was about to break out, Su Chen also held the dagger at his waist in his hand. Although if he did encounter a battle, the dagger in his hand might not be of any use at all...... But there's always a little peace of mind to hold in your hand.

"Maybe the necromancer left us some 'surprise' after he left." The solemn voice of the square-faced warrior instantly broke the somewhat dead silence. Su Chen followed the gaze of the square-faced warrior to the front of the road, and then he saw a 'person' slowly crawling up, its face was covered with a hideous scar, and its chest seemed to have been bitten by someone, revealing its bright red internal organs...... In short, this person's appearance is a standard zombie image.

Su Chen naturally didn't think that this guy still retained even a trace of self-awareness.

Truth be told, if a psychic warlock is dealing with the undead, they don't really have much of an effective means to do so. At most, they can only use the physical damage generated by various psychic abilities to deal with these guys who have long since died and have no spiritual intelligence, and many other methods will lose their effectiveness - for example, Su Chen's only attack method at this time, 'Psychic Stabbing', is almost useless to the undead necromancers, after all, this is the power to attack the mind, and the undead have no mind.

So if Su Chen really faced the undead head-on, he really didn't have much means to fight back other than a dagger.

Fortunately, he was not needed to go into battle at this time. The square-faced warrior grabbed the heavy sword in one hand and rushed forward, and then the heavy sword fell heavily, and the blade slashed heavily into the zombie's gray skin like a dead man, and then the already corroded blood flowed out, and the undead fell to the ground. The square-faced warrior's blade cut off its still grinning head, so the guy was no longer a threat in the end.

[Team Destroys 'Zombies' and Gains 2 Experience Points]

2 XP? Su Chen looked at the 1,000 experience points he needed to level up, calculated silently in his heart, and finally shook his head with a wry smile - the speed of 500 zombies to upgrade to a level is too touching, and there is no future for rubbing experience points here.

"We're lucky because the sun hasn't set yet." The square-faced warrior pointed to the top of his head, "The power of the sun god Terro still shines on this world, and the god who holds the light and justice suppresses all undead creatures who violate the rules of life and death. So these zombies are not very powerful now, but if night falls, this place will become a dead realm that all living beings fear...... We must hurry to find the remaining supplies here. I hope it's not ...... the undead yet."

Then a few people walked towards the inn in the village, and occasionally the dead staggered to their feet along the way, but these guys could not resist the easy blow of the square-faced warrior, and several people came to the only inn in the village almost devastated. The square-faced warrior looked at the place in front of him that seemed to have been burned by flames, and he couldn't help but sigh a little in his eyes. The caravans he followed often ran this route, and for this reason he visited the inn many times to repair it. But now when he came back here, all he saw was ruins.

Therefore, the world is impermanent, and it is always playing out.

The door of the inn was not locked, or when its owner also died in this catastrophe, even this door could not stop Su Chen and the others. The square-faced warrior directly stretched out his foot and kicked open the door - this is also telling the zombies in this that 'I'm coming', so that these guys staggered to the door of the inn and solved it in one breath is better than being attacked by the zombies lying on the ground in the process of exploration, this performance in Su Chen's eyes naturally became the meaning of 'the Lord is open and mocking', so he took half a step back and approached the entrance of the hotel, at least there were too many zombies coming over for a while, and he could still escape.

But to Su Chen's surprise, after a while, only a few zombies came over and were destroyed by the square-faced warriors, and there was not a large group as he expected-there was no direct sunlight in the room, and the undead here should be more active.

The square-faced warrior somehow picked up a cigarette-like thing in his mouth, but he didn't light it, just held it, and then frowned and said, "Zombies here...... It doesn't seem to be very active. But anyway, let's go to the kitchen, grab all the food we can eat there, and then we'll get out of here. It's shady and cool, and I always feel a chill. ”

His words were agreed by everyone present, and the inch-headed female warrior said impatiently: "There must be a lot of zombies left here, so we must be careful...... I don't want someone to be thrown to the ground and bitten by a zombie who just woke up. Truth be told, corpse poison is a nuisance, and we can't find a priest to dispel for a while. ”

Everyone nodded their heads to indicate that they understood, and then a few of them cautiously walked to the kitchen. It's safe along the way, as if the zombies have been taken care of all at once by the square-faced warriors. But when they came to the kitchen, they found that it was locked, and there were several corpses lying in front of the door—there were many bump marks on the kitchen, as if it had been struck by something. Through the holes that had been punched out of the holes, Su Chen could vaguely see the clutter piled up behind the kitchen.

Is this a blockage? Su Chen was a little surprised in his heart—then, maybe there were survivors here?

The square-faced warrior glanced at it and said, "We can't go in directly, it's too blocked...... But it's not impossible, you all go around a little bit. Then he stood in front of the door, and suddenly let out a loud roar, and soon the man's body began to swell, and his original height of about one meter nine quickly became two meters two, and he looked like a little giant. This scene naturally shocked Su Chen and the others, barbarians. This word instantly entered Su Chen's mind.

The barbarians were more likely to be found in Bunonci, further north of Franen, and the cold weather created the northern men in Bunonci who were as strong as bears, and the barbarians also occupied the majority of them. A powerful barbarian can even go berserk in the most critical moments, increasing his power to a level that can be called perverted, and even ignoring some control spells. Anyway, mages hate these guys - they are brutal and vulgar, they are not afraid of most magic, and they can fight for long periods of time even after being fatally damaged - and the legendary barbarian can fight even after losing his heart, which is terrifying.

Of course, the square-faced warrior couldn't be a legendary barbarian, Su Chen estimated that he was also a third- or fourth-level appearance, but this was still strong enough - the gate collapsed after supporting it for a while, and then the square-faced warrior and the others entered this small room.

There were a few people lying in the middle of it, and the square-faced warrior walked over and probed his nose, and found that these people had been dead for a long time. Then he looked at the layout of the room again, and frowned - there were several people who had taken refuge in the kitchen in a crisis, they blocked the door to separate the undead outside, but eventually died of thirst due to lack of water.

No, not a lack of water. The Square-Faced Warrior noticed that there was still water here, but when he dipped his index finger in some water and put it in his mouth, he immediately spit it out.

"The water here is polluted, and if you drink it, you will turn into an undead creature ...... Necromancers are vicious. ”

Viciousness is secondary, and if the water here is eroded, it is clear that the food will not be edible. They can't get any supplies here. Just when the square-faced warrior was embarrassed, Su Chen's voice suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"There's one more survivor here!" The psychic warlock shouted.
