The barracks in the rain were unusually empty, and the guy who had been letting out a low roar before was gone.

Lei Yang's body landed on the ground, striking an unnatural pit.

His body sank deep into the mud, and the soil became looser and looser as the rain washed away, almost pulling the boy's entire body into the ground.

The rain kept pouring in, and the dirt was sinking in a big way, and even the smell of blood in the air seemed to be buried deeply.

Rain, dirt, the smell of blood, teenagers, everything seems to be buried under this land.

It's like a grave.

It's just that the teenager who is deeply involved in it doesn't seem to be willing to be buried in it like this.

Just as the dirt was almost completely covering him, the flow of mud and water in the vicinity became a little faster in an instant.

His body, which had been motionless before, suddenly shuddered.

The tremor of Lei Yang's body was extremely subtle at the beginning, and the mud and rain around his body were constantly flowing, if he didn't pay attention to it, it was really difficult to notice such a change.

But soon, his whole body trembled violently!

The mud almost covered his whole body, so he couldn't see his specific state at the moment, but he could clearly see that the body that was trapped in the soil was shaking violently!

But such an action only hastened the fall of his body, and everything around him was flowing at an accelerated pace, as if he wanted to bury the boy in this natural grave at once!

The boy's body trembled more and more, and by the time it was evident that he had begun to struggle in the ground.

His chest rose and fell, and his head was gradually lifted in the mud.

Lei Yang sat up suddenly, his lower body fell deep into the pit, and when he opened his mouth, he spurted out a large mouthful of bright red blood!

The blood fell all around, and it was quickly washed away by the rain and lost its traces, and the bright colors could not show the slightest color in such an environment.

Lei Yang, whose face was covered with mud, suddenly opened his eyes at this time, and his eyes, which were difficult to reveal emotion, were full of palpitations.

The mud on his chest slowly fell downward, revealing the leather armor on his chest that had been completely shattered.

Beneath the shattered leather armor is the yellow skin of Thunder Poplar.

What's a little strange is that, in addition to the skin, the location of the heart of the shattered leather armor actually reveals a long blade that emits cold light!

The worn-out scabbard that had wrapped the long knife was now gone, and the sharp blade was unabashedly exposed to the air.

The tip of the long knife was almost attached to Lei Yang's heart at the moment, and it looked like it would be inserted into his heart if he didn't pay attention to it.

This was a bit weird, because it looked like Lei Yang had put the long knife close to his chest.

……

The staff felt a little uneasy.

Because from the beginning of the year, the speed at which he reviewed the documents had slowed down significantly.

He knew why he was upset, but he didn't dare to think about it.

The staff member, who noticed that there was obviously something wrong with his efficiency, thought about it, simply put down the document in his hand, stood up, and decided to make himself a cup of hot tea.

But as soon as he stood up, he saw the cup of tea from before.

The cup of tea was placed on top of a pile of papers by the city lord, and it looked like it was already cold.

The staff frowned and looked at the tea for a while, and found that the city lord had not touched this cup of tea, thinking that it seemed a bit of a waste to pour it like this.

So he picked up his teacup and wanted to take a sip to try it.

The tea was very cold, and it didn't work as hard as he thought, but it made him feel a little colder; The tea was very light, and the staff didn't drink any flavor from it, but felt that the tea was really tasteless.

The tea is tasteless, and there is no taste in this day.

He suddenly didn't know what he was going to do next, and he didn't know what he had come to Belia for so long.

At this moment, the staff remembered the previous incident again, and their faces couldn't help but become gloomy.

But he quickly shook his head and threw the thought out of his mind.

He looked at the teacup and thought there must be something wrong with it, so he thought about making a new cup of tea.

But just then he felt a cold wind blow in the tent, and a few drops of rain fell on his neck.

The staff who realized that someone should have come in hurriedly turned around, but was taken aback by the appearance of the person who came.

He thought he had seen a zombie that had just crawled out of its grave.

Zombies are almost completely wrapped in mud except for their eyes, and they exude a foul smell all over their bodies. His clothes were extremely tattered, and he had a long knife hanging from his waist, but the scabbard of the long knife also looked tattered.

If it weren't for the fact that those eyes were still godly, the staff would probably really think that this was a zombie.

"What man!?" After the staff came back to their senses, they immediately questioned the other party.

The zombie was visibly stunned for a moment when he saw the staff, and after a while scratched his head and asked, "Is this the staff's tent?" ”

"Yes, I'm just ......" The staff member nodded subconsciously in reply, but halfway through the sentence, he realized that something seemed wrong-

Even if not everyone in the army knew him, there shouldn't be anyone who didn't even know where his tent was.

After realizing this, his eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted at the other party: "You are not from the army!? ”

"How did you get in!?"

This shout seemed to startle the zombie, and he stepped back, waving his hand in a panic and explaining to his staff: "Sir, don't be so angry...... I am Lei Yang from the Jiangnan leather workshop, and the staff ordered a batch of goods in our workshop and ordered me to send them to the barracks in person, so I ......"

When the staff heard this, they finally remembered this.

A month earlier, before leaving, Miss Lei Ruoya had repeatedly told him to find a way to get her brother into the barracks.

When asked why she did this, she just said mysteriously: "There will be a surprise for you then." ”

The staff didn't know what she was doing it for, but they felt that since they had already listened to her other words, it wouldn't hurt to let an adventurer in.

So he made the decision to place a batch of orders with the Jiangnan leather workshop and instructed the owner to deliver the goods to the door in person.

So without waiting for the zombie to finish speaking, the staff opened his mouth with a gloomy face: "You are Lei Yang?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes......" The other party nodded again and again after hearing this, judging from his movements, he seemed to be a little frightened.

I didn't know that Miss Lei Ruoya had asked her brother to see her at this time...... What is the purpose?

The staff pondered for a moment, and then said, "Tell me, what did your sister tell you to come to the barracks at this time?" ”

"Huh?" The suspicious guy named Lei Yang was visibly surprised when he heard this.

"What are you?" The staff couldn't help frowning again, feeling a little unhappy in their hearts, "Didn't your sister tell you about this?" ”

"No, no, no, no......" Lei Yang's head shook like a rattle.

"Then what do you want to say, say it quickly!" The staff felt a little annoyed.

"But......" Lei Yang looked at the staff for a long time after hearing this, and then said in a slur manner, "Ruoya told me that I could only tell the staff about this matter, and I couldn't let anyone else know, so I ......"

Lei Yang paused after saying this, but looked at the staff with a suspicious gaze:

"Who are you, uncle?"

“……“

……

Outside the city of Beria, a large number of uniformed soldiers were walking in an orderly manner among the trees.

The rain was still falling, and the rain and mud on the ground made the road that was not difficult to walk seemed extremely rough at the moment.

It was close to the time when the sun set, and there was hardly the slightest light in the already dim environment at the moment.

But under such conditions, a large number of soldiers in the woods still marched in an orderly formation, and not a single one made a loud noise during the march, and none of them broke away from the group because of the extremely difficult process.

It seems a bit unreasonable for Belia, as a remote city, to have such a high-quality army.

Slark walked at the front of the army, trying to identify the direction of his advance, and constantly giving orders backwards for the soldiers to follow behind him.

Slark is one of the three lieutenants of the Lord of the Castle and the temporary commander of this group of soldiers.

He was ordered to lead the soldiers to join the group of brothers who had been left outside the barracks by the lord of the city.

The sound of rain hitting the leaves was constantly heard all around, and the sound that was originally pleasant made him very irritable at the moment.

The lord of the castle has summoned us at such a time...... What exactly are you trying to get us to do?

Slark complained a little, for judging from the troops that the lord had moved, they were the last soldiers to be drawn from the barracks, and two groups of about two thousand men had already been transferred.

This is also a large-scale operation.

But for such a large-scale operation, the castle lord did not reveal the content of the operation at all...... It's really unreasonable.

After all, there were already four groups of soldiers coming out, but none of the troops knew what they were supposed to do.

Base...... It's like a headless fly.

Moreover, Slark felt that this march was really weird.

Because he felt that his heart was beating hard, and almost every step he took had a feeling of panic.

This made him very uneasy.

Slark is a forty-year-old veteran, and although he has not fought any real tough battles for the sake of world peace, the intense training he has maintained throughout his years in the military has really honed his mind and spirit.

It was hard for him to imagine why he was terrified in such a situation.

As he walked, Slark looked up at the sky from time to time, and his brow furrowed tightly almost every time he looked at it, accentuating the wrinkles on his face.

He found that there was scarcely any light in the sky, and that it was about to enter the night, and that they had not yet arrived at the meeting place, which meant that they had to march in the darkness of the night—this made him even more uneasy.

As Slark looked up at the sky again, he suddenly felt as if he had heard some kind of beast roaring.

But he wasn't sure, because the sound was small and strange, rather like a sound produced by auditory hallucinations.

So he didn't think much of it.

But less than twenty meters had passed, Slark heard the voice again.

Slark was sure that both times it was the same kind of creature's sound, because he had the same strange feeling in his heart when he heard it both times, but it was obviously a similar sound......

This time, the sound was loud!

If the last time it sounded like the low roar of a beast, this time it was the beast roaring in his ear!

An exaggerated loud sound suddenly entered Slark's ears, violently vibrating his eardrums!

And the sound turned into a terrible howl later!

The sound of the howl was a little weaker than the previous sound, but this sound seemed to be really made by a ghost, and the painful wail seemed to come from the abyss, which made Slark creepy to hear.

Slark's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his hand to stop the march of the team: "Stop advancing!" ”

The soldiers behind him saw the commander giving the order, and quickly stopped the progress of the group.

The march in the field stretched the line very long, and the team of thousands of people naturally could not really stop at once, and there were special people in each row to convey the instructions to the soldiers behind.

But when Slark turned around, he noticed that the soldiers at the head of the platoon all had puzzled expressions on their faces when they received this order from him.

A strange feeling suddenly welled up in his heart: "None of you heard any strange sounds!?" ”

The soldiers at the head of the platoon, you look at you, I look at me, their faces are a little strange.

"Report to your Excellency! I didn't hear anything! What do you hear, sir? A slightly more daring soldier came out of the ranks to salute Slak and asked the commander.

Slark was shocked when he heard this, because even after the soldier asked the question, the strange sound continued to ring in his ears.

"You ......," Slark looked at the soldiers in front of him, muttered for a moment, and said slowly, "You guys are standing by and I'll go out and have a look." ”

"Your Excellency?" Slark's reaction surprised the soldiers.

"It's okay, I'll go and go back." Slark waved his hand and motioned for the soldiers not to worry, striding forward.

……

Slark walked in the direction the voice came from.

Thin raindrops continued to fall through the gaps in the leaves and hit Slark's body, and the cold sensation accompanied the raindrops to his body.

He felt a little cold, and subconsciously reached out and clenched the saber at his waist.

The strange voice was still ringing in his ears:

"Roar...... Roar...... Roar ......"

The volume of the voice was much lower than before, but it still made him very uncomfortable.

He searched for a long time like a headless fly, but found that the sound seemed to be coming from all directions, and he could not find the source of the sound at all.

Slark was furious, but instead of retreating, he walked forward.

Only he could hear the sound, so he wanted to find out where and what was coming from.

He didn't want the brothers behind him to encounter any unknown danger.

Slark had been the lieutenant general of the city lord for several years, and he didn't think he had a very good talent for marching and fighting, and he was only able to sit in this important position because the continent was in a state of peace, and he was naturally chosen by everyone because he was old enough.

He didn't want to live up to the expectations of the soldiers, and he didn't want the soldiers to be in danger because of some inexplicable things.

As Slark thought of this, he suddenly realized that something seemed to be staring at him behind him.

He shuddered, stopped his steps, and slowly twisted his body around.

Although the light had almost disappeared, he still saw a pair of blood-red eyes behind him.

A pair of eerie, millstone-sized eyes.

And the moment he saw those eyes, the howl in Slark's ears grew louder again:

"Roar!!!! Roar!!!!! Roar!!!!! ”

This roar almost cracked his eardrums!

The nearby trees also shook and almost broke in this roar, and countless leaves fell from the canopy, carrying a large amount of water splashing all over the sky!

Slark was taken aback, and in a panic, he pulled out the long knife at his waist and slashed at the eyes in front of him. In the process of swinging the long knife, it actually stirred up a red flame, burning like a raging fire in the darkness, and even the temperature around it seemed to rise by a few degrees at this moment!

The long knife with this aura suddenly seemed to become incomparably sharp and hot, and the leaves of the trees were neatly sliced apart, and the water droplets were evaporated into bursts of white gas.

However, before the long knife could reach the opponent's eyes, Slark suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood.

He barely managed to see the creature in front of him through the crimson light.

However, at the moment when he saw the other party's whole body clearly, Slark's whole body began to tremble violently like never before!

His hand holding the knife trembled so much that the crimson knife that had obviously been swung out had deviated from its intended trajectory!

Unlike most people, Slark knew exactly what was in front of him at the moment.

Slark was one of the few soldiers in the army who had been in a position of responsibility since the days of the previous city lord, and he knew what this guy was after what happened a few years ago.

Thinking of this, Slark didn't bother to correct the knife he had already slashed, and shouted in a trembling voice!

……

"Run! Run! Run! Run!!!!! ”

"It's an adult's voice!" Suddenly, Slark's voice came from the woods, and the faces of the soldiers who heard the commander's voice changed dramatically.

"My lord! What's wrong with you? A soldier yelled in the direction of Slark's departure.

Slark's voice soon came from deep in the woods: "Leave me alone! You ......"

But his voice was interrupted halfway through by a deafening roar:

"Roar!! Roar!!! Roar!!! ”

All the soldiers heard the roar.

The roar was almost unbelievably loud, it was just a sound, but it made the soldiers feel a kind of pressure that seemed to come from the sky!

And with this roar, the grinding and dull crashing sound of countless blades of grass also came from the woods.

The countless towering trees around the soldiers collapsed at this moment!

After the Fallen Trees......

Countless huge black-and-red monsters appeared in dense clusters!

A black-and-red monster in the form of a human!

When the monsters saw the soldiers, their blood-red eyes widened, and they let out a loud roar in the sky!

As they opened their bloody mouths, the bloody breath of the sky came out of their mouths, rushing straight into the noses of the soldiers without warning!

"Damn, what's going on!" The bold soldier from before took a step back, his face pale with fright from the situation in front of him, "What are these things!?" ”

"No...... I don't know......" The other soldier shook his head, obviously also frightened, his thighs trembled, and he almost wanted to go first.

At this moment, Slark's voice came out again:

"Quick...... Let's go......"

His voice was already choppy, and it was noticeably weaker than before.

"Your Excellency!? Where are you!? After hearing Slark's voice, the soldiers seemed to have found the backbone and subconsciously asked each other.

"Don't ...... Other...... me...... Come on! ”

"There it is!" A sharp-eyed soldier pointed in the direction of the voice, but as soon as he pointed out the direction of the voice, his own face suddenly turned pale.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and their faces changed drastically.

Their commander, Slark, is now being snatched by a monster and ......

Only half of his body remained.

The lower half of his body was gone, and his entire body was almost in tatters!

A severed intestine was exposed from his waist, and countless blood continued to flow from his waist!

Even at this point, the bright red blood was unusually conspicuous.

"Hurry up! They are...... Evil ......"

Slark's last word, along with his broken upper body, was swallowed into the monster's belly.

The monster opened its bloody mouth and swallowed Slark's body into it, chewing it several times so hard that after chewing, the monster's throat squirmed, as if it had swallowed the other's body.

After all of this, the monster let out a loud burp.

The soldiers could smell the fresh blood in the monster's mouth from a distance of dozens of meters.
