Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Corpses
The next day was a good day, the sun had been shining since the morning, and like the inhabitants of the Thunderbeast Ranch, the suffering was gone, and from today they could continue their previous lives, and under the leadership of the new leader, Amudor, they firmly believed that there would be a better tomorrow.
Today they decided to hold a celebratory feast with all their savings and food left behind, to celebrate the rest of their lives, and everyone sang and danced around the fire, and although Yan Shouyi and the knights did not join them, they could also feel the simple joy and attachment to their homeland.
As far as he can, Yan Shouyi is also happy to satisfy the simple happiness of these people, and feels physically and mentally happy, and his mood is relaxed at the moment.
Yan Shou thought of the conversation with Kumamon last night, and he looked down on the method of becoming stronger by the half-blood, and felt that it was relatively low-level, integrating the blood of the beast into his own bloodline, is this still a human, Bigg is very low! So he wasn't interested in this method, but he was just interested, and he decided to dry Kumamon for a few days before sharpening his sharpness.
And on this happy day, some people were not happy, and in the burial ground outside the mountain castle, in a mass grave-like place, the wizards of the Kumamon Bear Cavalry appeared there.
He carried a bat-like black cloth bag on his shoulder, wore a crow-like black robe, tried to cover every part of his body, and held a scepter connected to a dark red sheep's bone in his hand, he was originally a healthy and strong middle-aged man, but at this time his hair was withered, his face was pale, and he was as thin as a hemp rod, and his real age could not be judged from his expressionless walnut-shell-like face.
The wizard circled around the mass grave, looking up at the sky, the light was not strong and a little dazzling to him, and the wizard pulled his hand from under the black robe, covering his forehead.
It definitely didn't look like a hand that a living person could have, or it didn't look like a hand at all, but it seemed to be worn on the skeleton of a human hand with a tattered old leather glove, and the bones could be seen directly from those tattered places, which was very fresh.
"It's time."
The wizard stared at the sky and muttered, his rotten hand grasping the dark red skull, the dry joints completely sunk into the skull, as if it were pinching not hard bones but a ball of leavened dough.
Under his rubbing, the skull of the sheep fell and flew with the bone meal, and as the bone meal was scattered on the ground, in the black cloth bag on his shoulder, black and tiny beetles poured out like water, spreading like waves in the mass grave and burrowing into the ground.
In the sky, a sun-like planet is descending, pouring afterglow onto the ground, and the light with residual warmth is sprinkled and the grass is becoming eerie.
"Everybody get up."
The wizard casually lifted up with his rotten hand, as if to greet his friend, and in the land around him, the dirt began to wriggle, and one by one, the white, or dark, bloodstained hands reached out of the ground, and the Bloodline Knights, who had been executed and buried in the ground the night before, slowly emerged from the ground on their own, and stood up, some with holes in their chests, some with only a layer of skin on their necks and heads, as they had fallen.
There was a lot of dirt in the grass that was cracking, and decomposing corpses were crawling out, the same corpses that had been buried here in the Thunderbeast Ranch before.
The army of dead corpses remained in a daze for a long time, and when the darkness completely covered the land, they slowly became active, and the wizard did all this, bending over on the side, coughing hard and loudly, making people fear that he would cough up his lungs, and when he felt a little better, he began to direct the corpses to advance towards the mountain city.
"What people!"
"The goddess of the earth is above, what is this!"
"Oh my God!"
The knights guarding the city gate quickly spotted this group of uninvited guests, and when they saw everything in front of them, the knights couldn't help but let out a scream that usually only could be heard in a woman's throat, and trembled, feeling that their bodies were not obeying, while two knights in charge of guarding ran into the city, screaming as they ran:
"Dead man!"
"The dead are risen!"
The bloodline knight who walked in the front, a small part of his head was gone, from the top of his head to the corner of his forehead was slashed obliquely, with each sluggish step, the gray-white brain marrow exposed was also swaying slightly, he stared at the eyes that were already black and white, gray into a piece, and was walking towards the city gate with a slow but very firm pace.
The vast majority of the thunder beast knights felt that every bone was boiled into noodles by fear, and they couldn't use their strength, and the team leader in charge of the guard barely maintained his composure, and roared angrily: "Knights, close the city gate!" ”
But the strength of these corpses was surprisingly great, like monsters, and the city gate that had just been repaired was being pushed and pushed, and it actually collapsed, and the knight squad leader let out a desperate cry: "Honor! Knights, stop them! ”
The death bloodline knight who didn't know the pain, ignoring the attack of the sword, several thunder beast knights at the city gate were held down by a dozen corpses, as if they were holding down a few delicious meals, although the corpses moved slowly but also rushed to pull and bite, the knights who fell into the claws let out a scream that could reach the limit of human throats, and their hands and feet were still moving, but the flesh and internal organs had been handed between the hands and mouths of the corpses.
"Run! Come on! ”
"Cut off their heads...... Yes! ”
More and more corpses came out of the darkness, hundreds of corpses of all kinds staggered and rustled, some of these corpses had a hole in their chests, revealing their internal organs, some held their heads in their hands as if they were holding a weapon, some were already rotting and swollen, and one arm fell off as they walked, or the rotting internal organs were squeezed out of their mouths by the corpse gas, and they looked like they were vomiting, but their completely cloudy eyes were still staring straight ahead.
When Yan Shouyi arrived with a team of knights, he saw the scene in front of him, and he only felt goosebumps explode on his vest and scalp.
MMP, what the hell is this!
Yan Shouyi felt that he had been on the battlefield several times, he had seen all the corpses and mountains and sea of blood, he was getting more and more bold, and he was already immune to many tragic and disgusting scenes, but everything in front of him was no longer a threat, but the naked smell of death, a disgusting smell, if he could, he really wanted to turn around and run!
Yan Shouyi shouted in his heart, can't run, can't run!
He knew very well that if he ran away at this time, the Thunder Beast Ranch that had just returned from the counterattack would be finished! The inheritance he just got is gone, and he will not be reconciled!
Made, my life is up to me, not to God!
As soon as Yan Shou pressed the tip of his tongue, the smell of blood spread in his mouth, and his fighting spirit ignited like a red-burning bayonet!
Yan Shouyi took a deep breath, clenched the mace in his hand, clamped his legs, and urged the mount to rush over in vain!
His mace struck left and right, sweeping away the corpses that stood in his way, but he soon discovered that they were hard, tough as wood, and so powerful that it was difficult for him to break them apart with his strength.
Yan Shouyi had just rushed a distance, and he felt that he was struggling, and the knights around him were in a worrying situation, and they were pulled off their horses and drowned in the corpse pile for a while, and the screams were unbearable.
The first wave of fights made Yan Shouyi know that he was incapable of being an enemy, but fortunately these corpses moved slowly, he quickly turned his mount and walked out, his mind spinning quickly: "Quickly lead these ghost things to other places!" ”
The knights consciously did so, and as a result, the corpses were not fooled, which made Yan Shouyi realize that someone was most likely directing them, and immediately gave the order:
"Lovren, evacuate the nearby residents immediately, quick!"
"Obey the command!"
"Kidd, immediately probe around and see a suspicious personality to kill!"
"Yes!"
"The others are fighting with me, ready to burn them with fire!"
"Yes!"
His orders were in order, and the situation was moving in a favorable direction, but at this moment, the knight in the distance brought an urgent report: "The commander is not good, the inhabitants of the celebration have gone crazy!" Attack the people around you in a frenzy! ”
“…… What the! ”
