Chapter 22: It's Our Turn to Protect You (Part 1)
The corpse, which had not changed at all under Tesla's various attack methods, was on fire, and after being hit by the Crescent Moon Shield, the body that originally looked scarred but still tough actually cracked!
Although this rift is small, it is more effective than all of Tesla's previous attacks!
In the dark, Tesla seemed to understand something, but he didn't have time to think about it, because the most important thing at the moment was to use the new discovery to solve the corpse fire rather than thinking about it.
Due to the height difference between Tesla and the corpse, Tesla, who didn't dare to throw the crescent moon shield, could only keep using his shield to smash the most obvious crack on the corpse's fire.
The strange thing is that in this continuous process, Tesla found that the corpse was on fire and still did not move, as if the body was frozen, or rather, frozen.
"Tesla, I sensed an evil aura, it's probably less than 5 minutes away from us!" Fiona, who was standing in the corner of the stone chamber near the entrance of a passageway, suddenly shouted at Tesla.
"Roger! Sister Na, you just need to remember to blow up the stalactites you just blew up when those zombies and sunken demons appear, and delay the time! Tesla didn't dare to look back, or even stop what he was doing, so he could only respond loudly while frantically smashing the corpse's angry wounds with the crescent moon shield.
Time passed silently in the dark, and in just 5 minutes, it passed quickly.
By the time the first gray-white zombie minion appeared at the mouth of a passage, Tesla knew that he was running out of time.
Moreover, he could also feel that the fire of the corpse, which was originally in a completely stiff state of being beaten, seemed to have a new change.
Although he moved slightly, this was also discovered by Tesla, who had been paying all his attention to him.
"Sister Na, stop them, I'm going to succeed soon!" Gritting his teeth, Tesla shouted something he didn't believe in himself, and then frantically smashed the Crescent Moon shield into the corpse and became angry.
Fiona didn't respond, instead using a silent burst of fire in place of all answers.
Not only her, but in addition to Darcy who has been attacking the corpse with ice arrows all the time, the rest of Karis and Kyoko have also tried their best to condense psionic arrows to hinder the progress of the zombie minions under the corpse fire.
Unfortunately, Tesla didn't see that their faces were pale but full of determination under the faint light of the flickering torches.
It seems that they have come to their senses!
"Roar!! When more and more zombie minions appeared, the corpse that had been in a passive attack state became angry and actually let out a strong roar.
The huge sound echoed throughout the stone chamber, almost deafening Tesla!
And after hearing this roar of unknown significance, those zombie minions who had not reacted much originally went berserk.
"It's now!" Looking at the zombie minions who had gathered in one place and were quickly approaching the corpse, Fiona and the others shot arrows at the stalactites left above the stone chamber.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
……
One after another, loud noises were heard, and most of the zombie minions had been turned into flesh by the stalactites smashed from the air, but there were still a few fish that slipped through the net and ran towards the corpses after avoiding the deadly danger.
For some reason, Tesla had a voice in his heart shouting frantically, he must not let the corpse get angry and merge with his zombie minions, otherwise something terrible would happen!
However, he could not move, or rather, he could not stop the process of striking the corpse with his shield.
Because just a few seconds earlier, he had noticed that the corpse was on fire and there was more movement as its zombie minions approached, and he couldn't guarantee that if he let go, the corpse would be on fire and would be able to attack immediately.
Tesla, don't dare to bet!
There has never been a moment when Tesla was so desperate as it is now.
Until, his gaze seemed to see three figures appear in front of him and the corpse on fire.
There aren't many zombie minions left, about 3-4, because it's too dark for Tesla to confirm.
But the only thing he can confirm is that it is impossible for the Rog scouts to fight these zombie minions in a frontal battle!
Rog Scout, who lacks the means to strike a fatal blow, faces a zombie minions with rough skin and corpse poison, no matter how you look at it, it's a dead word!
Vaguely, Tesla seemed to see Fiona turn around, her lips moving up and down quickly, as if to say something, and then turned her head away.
Although he didn't know what Fiona said, Tesla could see the calmness and perseverance on Fiona's face.
A kind of calmness and perseverance in the face of death.
"No, no, no, no, no!! Yes!!! Tesla could no longer control his tear ducts and let the tears run down his face.
"It's our turn to protect you!" It was something he hadn't heard, something Fiona wanted to tell him.
Tesla, who had no other choice, could only smash the crescent moon shield in his hand into the corpse even more frantically and set fire, because he knew that the key to surviving and even saving everyone was whether he could kill the corpse in time!
……
"Darcy, fully support Sister Na and them, don't worry about the corpse getting angry!" Tesla, who had a flash of inspiration, immediately shouted after thinking of something.
Darcy, who was also a Rog scout, did not receive an order at first, and despite his internal struggle, he still did not aim his arrow at a second target other than the corpse fire. Now that she had been ordered, her ice arrows were immediately shot at a zombie minion that was lunging at Fiona.
Thanks to her arrow, Fiona, who had a high chance of dying, was rescued.
Fiona, who was pale, didn't have time to thank her, so she threw down Kyoko on the left, allowing her to escape the culling of another zombie minion.
"Ahh
"Roar!!
"No !!"
Ignoring the anger of the corpse that had already fallen to the ground, Tesla rushed to the crumbling Karis with a brisk stride.
Just now, just now, this optimistic royal sister helped Tesla block the culling of a zombie minion that came up from behind, at the cost of being pierced through her body by the poisonous claws of that zombie minion.
And almost at the same time, with Tesla's persistent final blow, the corpse was on fire and finally fell completely.
Slightly different from the game, corpses that would not have been cleared by death will instantly turn into powder after falling, and these powders will attack all zombie minions under an unknown force, and any zombie minions entangled in these powders will also turn into the same powder.
The zombie minions that only brought lethal damage to Karis were no exception.
So, when Tesla pounced, he was helped by a terrifying piercing wound on his body.
"Specially, Lord Tesla......"
