Chapter 43: The Living Corpse is Fierce
The fat officer was not mistaken, and Levi was indeed disappointed.
His soul of reasoning had just ignited a spark, and he was about to burn, but he was extinguished by this scoop of cold water, and disappointment was inevitable. Levi also estimated that he had to find an opportunity to shout "bet on my grandfather's name" at the right time. Although, as the last descendant of the Stansinger family, he has no idea who his grandfather is.
When the floor was lifted, Levi's distractions disappeared, and his pupils contracted suddenly.
He could clearly see that on the underside of the floor was a pale magic array, with straight lines drooping like drops of blood falling with gravity.
- Magic Trap!
"Be careful!" Levi's heart tightened, and he pounced on the fat officer, holding the bloated fat body, and came to a "magic circle of love", rolling out of the scope of the circle.
"What's wrong?" the fat officer was dazed, he trusted Levi and didn't put up any resistance.
"Officer Maxon, it's time for you to lose weight...... Levi gasped and turned his head to look at the circle, but there were no expected traps such as poison darts, flames, or acid.
As he hesitated, the hairs on the back of his neck stood on end, his expression stiffened, and he slowly turned his head.
Behind him, the lying corpses sat up one by one, and then, slowly, one by one, turned their heads to look at them one after the other.
This scene was extremely weird and made everyone present creepy.
The corpse is alive!
Oh~~
The corpses roared violently, their mouths open to tear the corners of their mouths, and with the howl of night owls, they ran and crawled to the ground, and pounced on the people, their postures crooked, but they were as agile as hyenas, pushing and crowding each other, forming a rushing river of corpses.
"It's all behind me!" Neil was in danger, and the crimson fighting qi outside his body surged, undulating and rippling several times, and it condensed into three crimson spikes like scorpion tails, or swayed, or swam, or stood upright forward, like three living snakes, diffusing vicious ferocity.
His sword was erected upward, his expression became resolute, and a wild and violent soul coercion rose from his body, turning into a lion head, scorpion tail, bat wings, and four-legged giant beast form, and it was a scorpion lion roaring into the sky!
After this shout, there was already a crowd of people behind him.
In the face of the supernatural existence of "living corpses", the police are naturally useless.
Levi was also on guard, but there was no one behind him, except for the fat police officer, who was too far away from Neil and had no choice but to come over.
And they are not to blame.
It is clear to everyone that as a meat shield, a knight is clearly more qualified than a magician.
What they didn't know, of course, was that there was an unusual "melee mage" in front of them.
"Soul coercion...... How can you still use it like this?" Li Weimo rubbed his chin, his thoughts flickering, "Directly condensed into an entity? Maybe, I can too." ”
He clearly saw that Neil's soul coercion had formed a terrifying deterrent, and it had actually stopped the strange group of living corpses.
"I'll try it too!"
Levi bent his knees and let out a low snort, and above his body, the pressure of his soul surged, condensing into a strange puppet with mutilated limbs and shabby paint, condescending and indifferent.
The puppet was ugly, like the product of crude slag, and its stiff smiling face, mottled paint marks, and mutilated body were all strange, like an indescribable deep nightmare.
"What is this?" said the faces of everyone present.
The face of the puppet is cold and indifferent, not like a manticore, just standing quietly, but like a straightforward embodiment of fear, bringing people the deepest depression, coldness and despair.
The "......" fat police officer quietly retreated, wanting to stay away from Levi.
At this moment, his heart palpitated, and the intense fear that rose in his heart was much stronger than when Levi turned into an ogre!
Levi sensed something, but was not angry, but the corners of his lips rose: "Oh, there is still a gap with Michelle's Longwei, but it's already a little interesting......
As a mage, and his soul is far stronger than his peers, his use of soul coercion is naturally far higher than Neil's simple and crude use.
However, he missed one thing.
The living corpse is already a dead person, and the consciousness, emotion, and reason are gone, and only a little living instinct remains. In their perceptions, Neil is transformed into a vicious manticore that roars in the sky, and Levi is transformed into a strange, evil, and terrifying ...... Puppet?
They voted with their feet and made their choices.
The living corpses are surging!
"Your sister, Lao Tzu is showing the blind man a flattering eye?" Looking at the living corpses pouring in like a tide, the corners of Levi's mouth twitched, and he complained in his mouth, "Hey, it's too ignorant! Hey, even if it's a living corpse, you can't forget to study when you die, have you read "The Self-cultivation of Living Corpses?"
He was still calm and calm, and threw out an "unstable activated magnetic storm" that had been gathering momentum for a long time, and reminded loudly: "Everyone lie down and hold their heads!"
Rumble~~
In the center of the room, there seemed to be a black sun slowly falling, accompanied by a deafening thunderclap, the violent thunder arc rolled and spread, like water waves, layer by layer, and the dark tide engulfed a living corpse.
The scale of the living corpse is huge, so Levi doesn't have to worry about the "unstable activated magnetic storm" at all, the only thing he needs to be careful about is not to affect his own people.
One after another living corpses fell diagonally, their body surfaces completely carbonized, even their internal organs were fully cooked, and bursts of green smoke rose from their bodies, which did not disperse for a long time.
The policemen were also shaken, fell crookedly, and fled on the ground.
"Is this guy really an apprentice?" "At the other end of the room, Neil stared at the front, his face full of shock, "This powerful spell ......"
His voice stopped abruptly.
Neil froze, the shock on his face turning to stunned, his eyes almost falling out of his sockets.
On the other side, Levi let out a loud cry, his head tilted to the right, his eyes became wooden, and brown lines eroded his face and body little by little, as if he had become a marionette.
And then, he strode forward, rushing into the remaining corpses alone, his arms stiff but fierce, using a pair of flesh fists as weapons, rushing and slamming the living corpses to the ground.
The corners of Neil's mouth twitched, feeling absurd: just looking at the way of fighting, the person in front of him seemed to be more like a knight than himself!
"What kind of freak is this?" he muttered.
While thinking, several living corpses also attacked.
"Hmph!" Neil snorted coldly, and he was also aroused to fight, and the three bright red scorpion tails condensed by the fighting spirit were raised, and they pierced into the body of the living corpse in front of him one by one.
The living corpses froze at the same time.
There was only a superficial wound on their bodies, but they seemed to have been drained of their strength, staggered a few steps, and fell to the ground to die.
At the wound, a demonic dark green was spreading, like mold plaque, which was spreading rapidly.
In Neil's fighting spirit, there seems to be a kind of "toxin" similar attribute, which can kill living corpses with just one point.
......
The battle ended quickly.
The strength of the living corpses is not strong, except for the large number, which looks weird, and can hardly pose an actual threat to the two of them. Even the fat police officer took the time to join in and shot a living corpse in the head with a steam pistol.
"What kind of monster is this?" Levi put his foot on the neck of a struggling living corpse and looked down closely, "It looks similar to the walking corpse, but they are not undead creatures, and they don't have necromantic breath on them." ”
"What do you do with so much?" Neil waved his sword, cutting off the head of the living corpse and pointing to the underground passage, "When you find the mastermind behind it, everything will be clear." ”
"That's right. Levi nodded, then raised his head with a sincere smile, "Then, you go first." ”
"Why me first?" Neil frowned, his face disgruntled.
"I'm just a 'delicate and weak mage', but you're a strong and powerful knight. Levi shrugged his shoulders and said in a heartfelt manner, "According to the rules, of course it's up to you to find the way......"
Delicate and frail, easy to push down?
Neil's face changed slightly, and he had the urge to curse: When you fight with living corpses, you are ten times more brutal and rude than the Cyclops!
But he held back and wisely decided not to argue with Levi.
"Praise the green!" Neil reverently recited the name of the god, and with a solemn expression, he leaped down.
Levi followed closely behind, and jumped down as well, leaving a sentence: "For the Alliance!"
......
The tunnel was dim, and Neil's body was churning red like a walking torch, illuminating the surroundings.
He leads the way, running and galloping.
Levi turned into an out-of-order puppet, his expression was blank, his joints stiff and bent, and he continued to run mechanically, keeping a distance not far away, following him.
The tunnel isn't winding, nor does it have any traps and lurkers, but it's long and looks like there's no end.
Even though he had turned into an out-of-order puppet, after running for a long time, Levi began to feel a little tired. As for behind him, the fat officer's panting was getting farther and farther away, and he had long since fallen behind.
Finally, the tunnel came to an end.
"For the green!"
Neil roared loudly, sword in one hand, lifted the plank at the end in the other, and leaped high with his feet.
Reckless...... Do you think you're a yellow-haired prince? Without the recklessness of the protagonist's aura, you're going to die!
Levi looked vainly, and when he came to the end, he did not rush to the end, and asked vigilantly, "Do you see the enemy?"
"Saw ......" Above, Neil's voice came, and his tone was solemn.
"Tricky enemy?" Levi was stunned.
"Pretty tricky. Neil affirmed.
Levi heard that his tone was wrong, and his heart moved, and he jumped out.
"This ......"
A magnificent city wall came into view, and Levi Muran's expression became more and more stiff.
Ahead, it's actually the outer wall of the Cloud City!
Levi understood what the other party meant.
The enemy is the city in the clouds......
Trying to find four people in the Cloud City is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Finish fighting, call it a day. Levi slowly exhaled a breath, lifted the state of the "out-of-order puppet", and secretly said in his heart, "You have to go back quickly, and you can catch up with the third class of "Introduction to the Law Circle." ”
In the morning light, Neil turned his back to Levi and suddenly spoke.
"Let me start by saying that I have no opinion of you, this is not a personal vendetta......" he said slowly.
"Personal grudges?" Li Weihu was suspicious, confused.
"Is Kane Pennyworth your family's Guardian Knight?" Neil paused, then asked suddenly.
Levi's expression froze, and he finally understood where Neil's hatred of himself came from.
Uncle Kane, your ability to attract hatred is really not ordinary......
