Chapter 321: Acquaintances
Seeing the guy in front of him who was resisting zombies, Lan Wu felt a burst of emotion in his heart. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info this person is none other than the original Lu Gaoyin nobleman, the fire mage Gross.
Gross is in terrible form at the moment. The whole person looks as dirty as a vagabond. The skin exposed under the tattered leather armor that was almost scrapped was black, and I don't know how long it had been since I had taken a shower or because I had been wandering for so long and had been exposed to the sun. Although his eyes were sharper than before, he couldn't hide his deep exhaustion, and it was obvious that he was about to run out of oil.
Leaning on a large tree of the thickness of one person hugging each other, Gross still did not give up resistance. Walls of fire quickly formed an impenetrable line of defense around him. Whenever zombies rush into the wall of fire, and just as they emerge, the high-damage wall of fire has already burned their lives in such a short period of time, and then they are burned to a pile of charcoal.
Just as he was catching his breath, he suddenly heard that unforgettable voice, and suddenly his energy was lifted, and he dragged his tired legs and stood up straight. Ever since he realized that his mind was too bigoted, he had always followed Lan Wu's example. Now that I have finally seen this benefactor again after a lot of hardship, I have to stand up straight and face it even if I try my last bit of strength. He was still a Rugoin nobleman after all. The aristocrat's pride and reserve, which had been carved into his bones, did not allow him to show weakness in front of his example.
"Gross!" Lan Wu shouted loudly, clutching the Sword of Legends and charging into the zombie horde.
It's a dense wood, and it's hard to turn on the whirlwind monsters. Lan Wu also had no choice, so he could only slash and kill these zombies with normal attacks. Fortunately, the legendary sword is an extended-level weapon, and its own damage is quite good, and the damage has been greatly increased with concentration skills, and it is easy to deal with these zombies that are not dense, and basically three or four swords can kill one.
With the help of the cover of trees, Lan Wu has approached the sea of fire after killing more than a dozen zombies along the way. At this time, he split the bloody zombie in front of him in half with a sword, and immediately changed into a giant war staff and teleported to Gross.
Seeing so clearly that it was indeed Lan Wu at such a close distance, Gross was very excited. I don't want to, but I let out the breath that has always supported me from falling. He shook, and the scene in front of him suddenly became blurred, and the light quickly dimmed. In the last moments when his consciousness was swallowed up by darkness, he smiled.
"Lord Benefactor, I did it."
The last thought flashed through him, and Gross passed out completely. If it weren't for the fact that he could still see his chest rise and fall slightly, still with his breath remaining, Lan Wu even thought that his luck was so bad, he had just found a helper and died.
Determining that Gross was just unconscious, Lan Wu couldn't help but laugh. I'm here to help. Fortunately, I didn't find a helper, but I still had to take care of Gross. Seeing that the wall of fire could hold on for a while, he quickly took out a comprehensive rejuvenation potion and poured it into Gross.
Gross's injuries healed, and his breathing stabilized significantly, but he still didn't wake up. Lan Wu couldn't do anything about it. This is clearly a coma caused by overwork and a more serious injury. The Potion of Total Rejuvenation could heal his body, but it could not make up for the depleted spirit.
"I'm in trouble." Lan Wu smiled bitterly, immediately picked up Gross, and teleported out of here. The wall of fire is about to be extinguished, and it will be difficult to walk without leaving.
Teleporting with people is very expensive. Lan Wu teleported to the depths of the woods with Gross and found a large tree that was the thickness of two people hugging each other, and hid it in the dense foliage. Settling Gross on a thick branch of the tree, he pulled out a bottle of total rejuvenation potion and a dozen bottles of healing and mana potions, then got up to leave.
Hours had passed, and I didn't know if Claudia and the others were in a desperate situation. He wasn't in the mood to wait for Gross to wake up. The most important thing is to find the person behind the scenes as soon as possible and take them out. But as soon as he got up, Gross, who was still unconscious, suddenly raised his hand and grabbed him tightly.
"Are you awake?" Lan Wu was surprised and delighted. Gross's awakening came at the right time. It doesn't provide much help, but it's still a help.
"I ...... How long have I been in a coma? Gross opened his eyes abruptly and asked subconsciously.
"It's just a few minutes." Lan Wu smiled. Looking at Gross's angry voice, it is estimated that it is not a big deal. He immediately briefly explained the danger encountered on the ruins of Rog's camp, and finally looked at Gross seriously: "I need your help now. Can it still hold up? ”
"Of course." Gross smiled reservedly and stood up by Lan Wu's hand. Although his feet were still a little unstable, he stood firmly on the branches and did not fall off the tree.
"Thank you." Lan Wu raised his right hand. Gross smiled and held him with his right hand as well.
A preliminary consensus was reached, and the two immediately began to observe the situation around them. The zombies below were still numbered, and they slowly moved towards the ruins of Camp Rog's camp with determination. After observing for a while, Lan Wu lowered his voice and said, "You should have found out." They have a common purpose. But the undead have no mind of their own, and only gain the ability to act when they are eroded by demonic aura. So there must be one or more behind-the-scenes controllers behind them. We've got to find the people behind it. Without the control of the behind-the-scenes controllers, these zombies will eventually slowly disperse. Only then will there be an opportunity to gradually clean them up. ”
"One more thing, where the hell did these zombies come from?" Gross calmly stared at the few zombies walking under the tree, raised his hand and pointed at them and continued, "There are not so many humans. Look at them, these are not zombies that have just crawled out of the ground. ”
Lan Wu was stunned for a moment and took a closer look. Sure enough, although the zombies below were rotten, there was not a single trace of dirt on them. If you think about it carefully, it is true that the living environment of human beings has been greatly compressed due to the invasion of demons. The total of the five bases is estimated to be more than a million people. Counting the integration of the three worlds, the number of human beings is at most four or five million people. But the number of zombies he saw was more than 10 million, densely spread like a carpet all over a radius of at least 100 kilometers.
After a while, Lan Wu raised his head in astonishment and whispered, "Something is summoning zombies?" ”
"That's right." Gross was the man who wandered all the way from the harbour of Kurast to the bloody wasteland, and he wasn't too surprised by the obvious answer.
"Let's go." Lan Wu learned that these zombies were all summoned things, but he calmed down. Now that you know this, it will be much easier to find the controller behind the scenes, and if you follow the direction these zombies are coming from, you will definitely be able to find the mastermind behind the scenes.
Gross didn't object, and stood up silently. The two of them also ignored the zombies under the tree, and teleported away from the tree one after another.
Both of them are professionals who have learned teleportation. After no longer clearing zombies along the way, the speed of progress becomes extremely fast. It took almost ten full hours of almost uninterrupted teleportation, and the two finally saw the real culprit behind the scenes.
"It's not easy." Lan Wu gasped, only to feel his scalp tingle. (To be continued.) )
