Chapter 461: Zombie Guards
The Ice Palace in front of you is a Gothic-style complex of buildings made of crystal clear ice. The spires of these buildings stand tall and fluttering. The exterior is majestic and imposing. At the top of the tower, a pair of needle-like minarets carved in stone soar into the sky.
One of the buildings has a triangular façade and is surrounded by hundreds of minarets, which contrast with the main tower, which is tens of meters high, as if supporting each other, stretching out into the blue sky, showing the characteristics of Gothic architecture. Obviously, this building is the main building of this complex, and if this is the Qinglun Heavenly Palace, then that building should be the core of these complexes, and most of the resurrection ceremonies of the Qinglun Ghost King will also be held there.
I was brought here by a whirlwind, was it all an accident? Or was it a human factor? I couldn't figure this out for a while, and now I have to take one step at a time and adapt to the situation.
Obviously, if this is the Qinglun Heavenly Palace, there will definitely be traps everywhere, step by step traps, I have to be careful in everything to minimize the risk as much as possible.
Qinglun Ghost King is obviously a Chinese before his death, how could he build a Gothic-style palace, could it be that this ghost king is still a returnee, once went to Europe many years ago and communicated with foreign ghosts, otherwise how could he make a Gothic-style palace?
"Xiaohua, didn't I tell you not to come here? Why are you still here? If I didn't happen to see you fall to the bottom of the cliff and rescue you, then even if you have ten lives here. Now do not stir around, and I will send for you to be brought to the king's palace. A voice suddenly came out of my head, and the sudden appearance of the voice startled me, the voice was quite familiar, it was Haining's voice, and now she is my honorary master, and it is very likely that she is the princess of the Qinglun Ghost King.
Sure enough, it wasn't any luck that I was able to get here safely, but Haining's arrangement.
Well, it's not bad to have someone take me directly to the palace, otherwise I might die a miserable death if I trespassed on my own, and in fact I don't have the slightest clue or certainty about how to enter the palace safely.
So I stood quietly on the lawn, waiting for someone to pick me up and enter the Qinglun Heavenly Palace.
Just a few seconds later, the main gate of the Qinglun Heavenly Palace slowly opened, and then there was a very heavy footstep sound, and I looked into the gate, and I was immediately stunned by what I saw.
I saw a group of people dressed as six huge ancient soldiers slowly walking out of the gate, these six people were all about one meter nine tall, and they were all wearing heavy golden armor, in addition to their tall bodies, the weapons in their right hands also absorbed my gaze.
This weapon looks like a mace, originally the mace is also a common weapon in ancient times, there is nothing surprising, but the size of the mace in their hands is really bigger, roughly it seems to be about the size of a bowl, about one meter six or seven in length, although these people are very tall, but because the mace is too big and too long, the mace is dragged by them on the ground, I can't see how heavy this mace is, but from the loud sound it makes when it is dragged and the sparks generated by friction, this mace is at least more than 200 catties。
If you are hit on the head by a mace of more than 200 catties, the consequences are ...... I shuddered, I couldn't imagine it anymore.
These six soldiers are not walking fast, about the same as the speed of normal walking, but I believe that this is not their real speed, once necessary, I have no doubt that their speed is not below me, among human beings, my speed after many years of martial arts training is considered to be the top.
The sharp and piercing sound of the mace dragging on the ground is uncomfortable to listen to, as if someone is scraping the lid of a pot with a knife. With a cacophony of rubbing, the six soldiers came to me.
I looked at the face of the soldier at the head, and found that one of his faces looked like a stone weathered and corroded by endless years, pale and, a bit like a petrified statue, and there were only whites of the eyes in the eyes, but no eyes, and only four features on his face, he had no mouth! He was definitely not a living person, he should be a zombie!
And his five companions, like him, all had petrified and stiff faces, and they all had only four facial features, none of them had mouths!
The soldier at the head bowed his head and bent down to look at me, no way, I really look too petite now, especially in front of this giant man who is about to reach two meters tall, if he just bows his head, he still can't see me.
"You are Xiaohua, right? I am Shi Kuan, the captain of the king's guard, and my mother asked our six brothers to take you to the palace. I heard a very dull voice, like someone talking under a covers, and it had a metallic texture.
The king that Shi Kuan said should be the Qinglun Ghost King, and Niangniang of course refers to Haining, this guy has no mouth, so his voice comes from his stomach, it seems that many ghost zombies can speak ventriloquism.
I don't have much to say to these zombie guards of the Qinglun Ghost King, I nodded, indicating that I am Xiaohua.
"Then come with us, the king is going to have a resurrection ceremony today, and we don't have any time to spare. Shi Kuan didn't say much polite to me, and turned around and left, and several of his men followed him towards the gate.
I silently followed Shi Kuan and walked into the gate. As soon as you walked through the gate, it slowly closed.
As soon as you enter the gate, you will find an extremely large square, which is of course also made of ice.
The square was the size of five football fields, and in the very center of the square was a large group of ancient soldiers, numbering about five hundred, who were shouting and changing their formations like marquees.
Although they are far apart, my eyesight is very good, and I can clearly see that these soldiers are zombie soldiers like Shi Kuan, and these soldiers should be the so-called Yin soldiers.
The Qinglun Ghost King was a famous general in the Warring States period during his lifetime, and these soldiers should be his subordinates during his lifetime, but at this moment they have all become zombie troops.
I suddenly remembered that Lin Miaoke and their party were only seven people, but there were quite a lot of people under the Qinglun Ghost King, there were five or six hundred people who could already be seen, and I don't know how many there were if they couldn't see it, even if Lin Miaoke's ghost skills of the female ghosts of the Flower Shifting Palace were very powerful, but the two fists were hard to beat with four hands, seven people against five or six hundred people, plus a Qinglun Ghost King who could be resurrected at any time, Lin Miaoke and they could beat the zombies of the Qinglun Heavenly Palace?
