Chapter 500: The Ghost Tide Strikes (69)
With the departure of the real Hades Death, a group of subordinate soul envoys also returned to their uncertain forms and floated back into the air, flying away towards the northern sky. The more they left, the more empty the battlefield became.
When the last of the soul envoys suddenly transformed into a tissue paper-like form, they floated into the sky with the wind and left.
Looking at the sky in a daze, Tang Long and Father Hong still seemed to be unable to react to what was happening. Instead, the great alchemist known as the "Demon King of Europe", Dr. Kasos, walked to his side. Stretched out his left hand and patted Father Tang Long on the shoulder in a friendly manner, and said, "It seems that everyone has survived......"
Turning his head to look at Dr. Kasos's tattered black robe-style big robe with a hole in the east and a cut in the west, even his white hair was messy in the wind, and even the color of fireworks on his face, the relatively clean Tang Long and Father Hong were a little back to the feeling that they had just experienced a hard war.
"I think I probably know why the so-called war against the undead has not left a complete record in history." Father Tang Long and Father Hong muttered to themselves thoughtfully, but this sentence also attracted the attention of those present.
After hearing this, Liudaozi, who came out of the back house and had just walked to the front, blinked her big eyes, and she and many more people who had missed the conversation between the black-clothed priest and the god of death in the underworld just now, were a little overwhelmed by the current tone of Tang Long and Father Hong, which contained metaphorical meanings.
However, the well-informed Dr. Caseos smiled when he heard this, and responded: "The so-called history of war is just a reference to the exaggerated facts recorded by the victors, and then with the help of many relevant small clues, later generations of scholars to piece together the most reasonable deduction of the situation. But the loser will only want to cover up the disgraceful truth. ”
"However, for the end of the war of the dead, the victors will not boast. And we can only be regarded as one of the failed members. Father Tang Long and Father Hong, who had clarified the logic, followed Dr. Cassos's reasoning with a wry smile and said an extremely embarrassing but helpless conclusion or some degree of truth.
Dr. Cassos was equally embarrassed when he heard this, looked up at the sky and exhaled a long breath, and then continued: "So we can only see in some fragments, in the history of barnyard officials—such a simple sentence as 'waiting for the immortal messenger to inform their noble master,' or a bunch of heroic poems that are boundless...... The poetry of a group of impostor heroes. ”
All the living people slowly gathered around Tang Long and Father Hong. Looking at the many familiar faces around, well, the members of the westward exorcism team this time are not missing, and it is also very rare.
However, if you think about it carefully, it is also a matter of course - because of this, the only people who have always been fighting on the front line are the most capable martial arts faction GS Meishen Reiko and the endless Youfang Taoist Sima Qiudao, plus his own closed disciple - the new lord of the Blood Island, the blonde handsome guy Pete Dulei, the leader of the Blood Clan's Daywalkers, these three are just that.
The others, except for Dr. Kasos who took the battle maid Maria to the front line to fight in person, even he was hiding in the safety of the rear, and it was not easy to die under normal circumstances, but the losses in this war were all the residents of the small town of Blood Island......
In this regard, Tang Long and Father Hong only had endless emotions in their hearts. The only difference is that this unwarranted disaster, the damned ghost tide undead war has finally settled, the culprit has been suppressed into the hell of Hades, and as the living, most of the creatures on the Blood Island have survived......
That's the most precious thing......
A pretty good ending......
"Let's go. One way or another, the war is over. Let's clean up the battlefield and rebuild our homes. The words of Father Tang Long and Father Hong put an end to more than ten days of war.
Very unexpectedly, when everyone began to clean up the battlefield, they also found some unexpected "survivors". It's just that most of these "survivors" have been absorbed too much vitality by the Bone Undead Army, so that the part of the blood that belongs to the blood clan in the body has been completely activated and lost its restraint, and the already lifeless body has finally turned into a bloodsampire monster in the full sense, almost without intelligence, or a walking corpse-like monster left after the collapse and death of the spirit.
Moreover, they are not transformed on the spot, otherwise, it will not be the turn of the residents of the Blood Island Town to clean up the battlefield and find out, and those soul envoys who are in charge of clearing the field will directly kill these lifeless suspected undead and directly ashes.
These mutated vampire monsters were initially scattered on the battlefield in the form of corpses, because of their original status as residents of the Blood Isle and their relatives, and they were ready to collect the corpses and process them before they were buried.
The corpses left by the "corrupt fish-man" ghouls who did not have this identity were all gathered and burned without discussion.
Later, because of the pollution of the land by the filthy miasma brought by the army of the undead, it is necessary to wait for Tang Long's divine father to preside over the purification of the land polluted by the miasma in the future, otherwise this polluted land will not only not grow a single grass, but may also attract some unknown unclean things......
In this undead ghost tide war, nearly 50 people died in the small town of Blood Island, which is a town with a total of less than 500 people, and the death rate is one-tenth, which is almost the filial piety of every family, and the loss is very large.
Because of this, the residents of the small town of Blood Island worked hard to collect and place all the corpses of the war dead that they could find, prepare for some tidying, and bury them in a unified manner, so that their families can also have a place to remember and remember in the future.
Although Dr. Caseos objected to this treatment, arguing that the bodies should not be kept and should be disposed of immediately during the day to avoid unforeseen troubles and dangers; Sima Qiudao also chose to support Dr. Kasos's suggestion out of prudence, because he also felt that there seemed to be something strange in the corpses of these fallen Blood Island residents, but because the matter involved the feelings of other Blood Island residents, it was impossible to allow the test, which would be considered "desecration" of the corpses.
However, most people did not support this sound view for emotional reasons or other considerations, especially the opposition of the handsome blonde man Pete Durey, who was the lord of the Blood Island and the head of all the inhabitants of the Blood Island, and in the end, Father Tang Long also gave himself the face of his closed disciples, respected the demands of the residents of the small town of the Blood Island, and kept the body for burial.
Unexpectedly, at midnight that day, those corpses actually transformed and mutated on their own~!
In this way, dozens of families in the small town of Blood Island confirmed that their fathers, husbands, sons, and brothers were killed in the battle, and unexpectedly welcomed back their relatives who thought they had passed away in the second half of the night, but the means they used to greet their family members were not words and hugs, but fangs and claws, blood sucking and biting......
Thankfully, the inhabitants of the small town of Blood Isle are half-blood daywalkers, so there have been no cases of people dying directly after being attacked and transformed into ghouls.
Of course, this is actually because the human exorcism team is also in the town, and even the new patriarch The handsome blonde guy Pete Dorey lives in his own house in the town, and after hearing the alarm at night, a group of people immediately gathered and rushed over, and directly killed several of these mutant vampire monsters and saved the townspeople who were attacked.
Due to the timely rescue, there was no tragedy in which the living were killed......
Everyone was also deeply shocked and terrified by the "sequelae" of such a sudden war of the dead.
These vampire monsters instinctively hide from the sun and hide in any shade that can provide cover, and these monsters are never picky eaters because they are thirsty for blood, humans are of course the first choice, but even if they are also blood vampires, they will take it down when they are pressed, and they also instinctively seek out their blood relatives to attack these blood relatives......
In short, this is a monster that is more vicious and dangerous than the original blood vampires and traditional ghouls~!
Fortunately, the weakness of these mutant monsters is also very obvious, not to mention the fear of sunlight, and they are also very hungry for divine power attacks, in addition, ordinary flames, strong acids, and even more than a certain degree of power effects, that is, ordinary physical attacks are enough to clean up these brainless opponents.
However, its tolerance to ice is greatly increased, and even when faced with other powers, it is much greater than the well-known ghouls.
The most critical point is that the other party seems to be very brainless because the spirit has dissipated, so it will only follow instinctive activities, which is much easier than chasing vampires, and monsters without intelligence always have certain rules to follow, and once they are found to have laws and weaknesses, they will not have the ability to resist at all.
The next day, with Father Tang Long as the leader, Sima Qiudao, Meishen Reiko, Pete Dulei and other more capable masters as the main force, with the help of the twelve zodiac gods released by the Shishigami Imperial Envoy Liudao Twilight, they began to search the mountains and islands, chasing and killing mutant monsters.
After a day and a night of searching and hunting, more than two dozen such monsters were finally killed, and it is unknown whether there were any dead remnants who absconded by jumping into the sea.
However, because of this, everyone is also really concerned about the safety of the small town of Blood Island. Under the auspices of Father Tang Long and Father Hiroshi, all the remaining inhabitants of the town of Bloodland were converted to the Cross Religion and baptized.
Father Tang Long commanded the people to build a simple church in the town, and with the help of the exorcism team, a sacred circle was carved in the center of the town that could protect the entire town.
In addition, after this battle, the residents of the small town of Blood Island also have their own hearts set on martial arts, and everyone is ready to learn some means to protect themselves.
To this end, on the one hand, the handsome blonde man Pete Durrey, who is a daywalker of the Bloodline, trains the clansmen to use the instinctive talents of the Bloodline; On the other hand, Father Tang Long and Father Hiro selected a few of the more devout townspeople to teach the necessary Crucidian clergy to invoke the divine power with the power of faith.
Poor Blood Island Town was already understaffed, and when the undead ghost tide did not occur before, everyone in the exorcism team could stay in the town and wait for the townspeople to build ships and then go to sea to reconnect with the outside world, so that they could leave this isolated island.
But now, not to mention the complexity of everything, everyone is still busy training, there is no effort to reopen the shipbuilding, and the dock has been almost destroyed due to the invasion of the undead and ghosts......
Among them, the beauty god Reiko, the witch Ogasawara Emi , Rokudo Twigko and Yokoshima are the most, the first two are because they can't go back because they are always dragging on, and they will miss a lot of money-making opportunities, while the latter is purely because they feel that it is too boring to stay in this Yellow Island......
Soon, however, some people took the initiative to find the door of the Blood Island-
One day just after the end of the undead ghost tide, Tang Long and Father Hong were leading the people to carry out a very necessary sacred purification process for the places contaminated by the filthy miasma of the undead ghouls.
But I never thought that when everyone was preparing on the platinum sand beach of the Blood Island, I saw a single sail dinghy at the sea level in the distance, which is a sail dinghy with a closed living cabin that can carry up to three people to sail, of course, this is also a boat that is only used by those who like to play solo long and short voyages, and the most famous is that someone once drove this sail boat to successfully complete the feat of sailing around the world in a single ferry and a single boat......
However, the dinghy rushed to the platinum beach at a very fast speed, and in the process no one came out to control the sails, and finally crashed straight into the shore without a driver, and plowed a not too long ravine on the platinum beach and ran aground completely......
At this time, several Blood Island townspeople who were relatively close to the place of the incident, and all of them were women, under the leadership of a sturdy woman, the leader of the original Blood Island Longbow Team, cautiously and gradually approached the past......
Unexpectedly, there was a sudden loud noise on the sailing boat, which was originally thought to be unmanned, and the broken cabin door was directly smashed and lifted away, falling far away on the beach, splashing a lot of sand......
A tall orc burst out of the hole, and the door of the cabin slammed down the hull of the ship, jumping onto the platinum sand. The wolf-headed orcs are covered in dark gray body hair, and their red eyes and bared teeth and cracked mouths are menacing. However, the leader of the longbow team of the Isle of Origin Blood still had the audacity to ask, trying to communicate with the orc, well, what seemed to be a werewolf: "It looks like you're a reckless visitor, it's okay. Is there something wrong? Mr. ...... "Before he finished speaking, his relatively strong body was knocked away by the werewolf's big fist. The coveted look drove the monster forward. "Hey, I'm hungry. Hehe, women's meat is delicious. Hey. ”
The remaining female townsfolk immediately took a stance in front of them, almost activating the blood instinct further, ready to fight. But one of them stood up angrily and wiped the bright red from the corners of his mouth. Grabbing the werewolf's long tail, he threw it violently to the side where no one was, and the strange power that did not belong to humans was so strong that even the orcs could not resist. The leader of the Primordial Blood Island Longbow Team placed his palms at his sides, his nails lengthening and sharpening at an astonishing rate. "Is there a mistake about trick-or-treating here? Don't you want to live? ”
