Chapter 21: Canyon in Distress
The Tomb of the Living Dead is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the only road leading to the outside world is the winding path outside the cemetery, along which Lin Liao quickly blends into the reckless mountains. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He didn't light the torches, because that would be a bit too conspicuous in the night, and while the carrion zombies were no longer a threat to him, God knew what other monsters would pop up in the mountains, so it was better not to take any chances.
The moonlight tonight is very bright, and the visibility on the mountain road is enough for Lin Liao to respond to any unexpected situation, but the mountain is really a little too quiet, and he can't hear the slightest sound of insects and birds, and it is estimated that they are all plagued by those undead.
After walking for about half an hour, Lin Liao noticed that the surrounding terrain suddenly changed, and he entered a canyon path between two high mountains.
He looked around the sides vigilantly, and saw that the two mountains were bare and barren, and the steep slopes were littered with rocks of various sizes, and it was impossible to prevent anyone from hiding behind the rocks and making a sneak attack.
Lin Liao was hesitating whether to find a way to go up and investigate, when he felt that the top of his head suddenly darkened, as if the moonlight was blocked by something, at first he thought it was a dark cloud, but when he looked up like this, he couldn't help but gasp.
According to Lin Liao's eyesight, it is impossible to exit the valley even if he uses sprinting, and only by moving forward quickly can he have a chance to get out of the shroud of the boulder.
It turned out that Lin Liao's judgment was very correct, when the boulder landed, it was only two or three positions away from him, as long as there was a slight hesitation or misjudgment just now, I am afraid it would have become a meatloaf at this time.
It is impossible for this kind of thing to happen just an accident, otherwise Lin Liao will doubt his character, and looked at the cliff where the boulder came from, and sure enough, there were two humanoid black shadows looking down there, and at this moment it seemed that he had found that he was not injured by the boulder, and was about to climb down.
If it was just these two opponents, Lin Liao was naturally not afraid, maybe he would wait for them to come down and have a good fight, but the situation was obviously much worse, just as the black shadow began to climb downward, many skeleton soldiers suddenly appeared behind the rocks on the slopes on both sides, and after bending their bows and arrows, there was a round of salvos.
Lin Liao was annoyed by this, if it was a close combat, he believed that these guys whose strength was only slightly higher than that of the carrion zombies could not be his opponents at all, but now people are condescending to use long-range attacks, and the slopes on both sides are steep and difficult to climb, so it is really a little out of line.
In desperation, he had to repeat his old tricks, rolling and dodging, while using his shield to block those bone arrows that could not be avoided, and quickly fled to the other end of the canyon.
At this time, the two climbers had already climbed down the cliff, the system monster was really extraordinary, even climbing the mountain was superior, so steep mountain walls they had already landed in less than a minute, although the last section of the hill was rolling down, but the speed was already very amazing.
Lin Liao didn't know anything about this, and at the moment his attention was completely focused on the bone arrows shot from both sides.
This time it was different from the situation on the suspended steps in the tomb of the living dead, when those skeletons were confined to the cave in the mountain wall, and the angle of the arrow was relatively single and they could still grasp its rules, but now these skeletons can still leap like flying on the steep hillside, and the bone arrows shot at the same time as Lin Liao are also chaotic, making it very difficult for Xiao Lin to dodge.
At this time, there was a strange gurgling sound behind Lin Liao, as if something was rolling towards him quickly, and when he glanced back at the time of dodging the bone arrows sideways, he found that they were actually two hollow balls composed of skeletons, the size of which was about the same as the kind of fitness balls in reality, I don't know what was strange.
Not to mention that Lin Liao had to dodge the arrows, even if he used the speed of sprinting under normal circumstances, he was not as fast as these two balls, and in the blink of an eye, they were overtaken left and right.
However, what surprised Lin Liao was still to come, the two balls suddenly stopped three positions above him, and then stood upright like Transformers, and they were actually two skeleton soldiers, and their figures seemed to be the two on the cliff before.
Lin Liao, who was far away just now, was not easy to estimate, but at this moment, he found that these two skeleton soldiers were unusually tall, almost as tall as him one and a half people, and the skulls on his neck were also surprisingly large, and there were green ghost fires in the two eye holes that were constantly beating, which looked very weird.
Lin Liao secretly called unlucky, these two are evolutionary skeletons like captains at first glance, although they may have worse attack power than ghouls, but they are brothers, and they each hold a bone knife in each hand, that is the double knife flow character that often appears in the game, coupled with outstanding movement ability, it is estimated that it is much more difficult to deal with than the brainless "fat" brother.
What's even more depressing is that the group of little brothers they brought with them are also very annoying, and they were already quite embarrassed to avoid their bone arrows just now, and now with these two brothers joining in the fun, Lin Liao felt a little bad about his situation for the first time.
Or the revolutionary predecessors said well, there are conditions to go up, and there are no conditions to create conditions to go up, at this moment the back road is blocked, and there is a strong enemy in front, for Lin Liao, instead of going back and dying late for a while, it is better to continue to fight his mother, maybe he is a good person, and it is unknown that he will break out of the encirclement under the explosion of character.
These thoughts were actually just a turn between the lightning and flint, Lin Liao's body didn't seem to pause at all, only to see him roll forward, dodging a wave of bone arrows while raising a shield in his left hand, and sweeping out with a broadsword in his right hand, directly taking the shin bones of the two skeletons, intending to abolish their next plate and make them lose the ability to move.
It's a pity that although the idea is good, but it can't be as desired, the two skeletons are obviously set to be good at cooperating, seeing Lin Liao attacking, the long knives in their adjacent hands first went down, resisting Xiao Lin's broadsword At the same time, the long knives on the left and right sides drew two inner arcs to the middle, bypassing Lin Liao's shield and taking his left and right shoulders.
Lin Liao roared "It's good", with a force under his feet, the whole person suddenly rose from the ground, and the two knives of the skeleton attacking his shoulder suddenly fell into the air, and the shield broadsword in his hand hit the heads of the two monsters on a left and a right, this time he didn't want to hit the two skeletons, as long as they chose to dodge and expose the gap, he had a chance to break through the blockade of the two monsters, and then use the sprint to escape from the canyon exit not far ahead.
