Chapter 120: The 'Farmer' on the Wet Soil
It was getting dark.
Standing at the edge of the lifeless woods, Zhang Ji looked up at the strange farmland ahead.
On the damp dark red soil that had been carved out, there were hundreds of tree corpses and flower corpses, constantly wandering.
In the center of Farmland No. 3, there are still several hard-working gray and black figures, who keep planting some kind of strange plant in their hands into the wet soil, and then pluck something from their backs and insert it into the branch of the strange plant.
From afar, it looks like a farmer working hard.
Through the gap between the tree corpses and the flower corpses that had become larger due to wandering, Zhang Ji saw the appearance of the farmers clearly.
The facial features other than the mouth still did not appear on the oozing face, and the body size was similar to that of the berserk tree corpse.
And the farmer's back was covered with squirming gray and black corpse arms, and there were more than a dozen of them!
They plucked their corpse arms from their bodies and plunged them into the towering grey-green trees and the huge grey-red flowers!
"Corpse farmer?!"
Behind Zhang Shu, the Imperial Guardian who had entered here several times had recognized the undead monster in the middle of the No. 3 farmland.
"Why are they here, wasn't Farmland No. 3 cleared out last time?"
The Guardian and his companions all looked in disbelief at the middle of the farmland, where they had cleared out and set up some fortifications, and at this moment, as before, there were many berserk tree corpses and swift flower corpses, and there were also corpse farmers who had 'planted' them!
Everyone looked at Tang Guodong, the latter's face was also a little solemn, he had noticed the abnormality early, and now, he could already confirm it.
These undead monsters are planning to reclaim farmland!
The only one who can influence the actions of many undead monsters is probably the last guy.
Moreover, this guy should be a lot stronger than the first three farmlands.
Tang Guodong pulled his thoughts back, carefully thinking about the current decision, this No. 3 farmland is no different from the previous situation, if it is directly surrounded, there should be some uncontrollable casualties, it seems that it will take more effort to adopt a conservative strategy.
"Everyone retreats and camps, the situation of this mission is more arduous than the previous ones, and we are afraid that we will have to fight a protracted war."
Tang Guodong lowered his voice and said to everyone.
Hearing this, the spirits of the guards were also tense, and before they reached their destination, they were going to carry out this kind of defensive tactic, and this mission would not be too simple.
Under the command of Tang Guodong, many imperial guards arranged their defenses in an orderly manner, after all, they were all fourth-order imperial guards, and in the face of such unexpected things, although there were some muttering in their hearts, they would not be too worried.
It didn't take long for a simple defensive camp to take shape.
At this time, the sky was also completely dark, and after the guardian had eaten some simple food, he began to take turns on duty to kill the scattered undead creatures that roamed over.
Tang Guodong was planning to wear down the undead power in the farmland in front of him little by little, and then annihilate it in one fell swoop.
This minimizes casualties and avoids unnecessary risks.
……
Time passed slowly, and it was already the second half of the night.
On the outskirts of the camp, after killing the two roaming berserk tree corpses, his duty time also ended.
The shift he was on was the penultimate shift before dawn.
In this group of guards, someone went to wake up the next group of personnel who needed to be on duty, and after they handed over, they returned to their own area to rest.
After Zhang Shu lay down, he couldn't help frowning and looking at the periphery, the wave of people who had just been handed over were the four people who had caused the tree corpses to go crazy in the first place.
At the right time, Zhang Ji wanted to remind the four of them by the way, but seeing their rather repulsive looks, he swallowed the information he was about to say directly.
Shaking his head, Zhang Shu stopped looking there, closed his eyes and began to rest.
Today's battle is not short, and some of the energy consumed needs to be replenished as soon as possible in order to cope with tomorrow's situation.
If nothing else, by tomorrow night, we should start eliminating the undead in Farmland Three.
In the midst of these thoughts, Zhang Ji slowly fell asleep.
His sleep was very light, and in this place full of dangerous monsters, I am afraid that no one would completely sleep to death.
When there was still the last shift before dawn, the four people in the penultimate shift couldn't help but relax when they saw that they were about to end their night duty, and talked to each other casually.
Just when they wanted to wake up the next group of people in advance to get up and watch the night, one of them suddenly found that there were several ghost-like phantoms next to him!
The phantom has no fixed shape, wandering aimlessly, hidden in the night, silently appearing here.
The man's heart was shocked, but his reaction was not slow, and he immediately controlled the monster under his command and launched an attack on it.
But his monster, although the strength is not small, and the aiming position is also accurate, but it did not cause any substantial damage to that phantom!
This attack, on the contrary, stimulates the aggression of the phantom!
I saw the phantom shadow that was penetrating through the body, and suddenly burst out with a terrible wail, and this fluctuation quickly spread outward from the surroundings of his body!
The four people on duty at night instantly felt dizzy, and even struggled to control the summoned monsters.
This wail even indiscriminately affected several other phantoms around them, and then, they actually let out a terrible wail together, and under the superposition of each other, almost resounded through the forest where many imperial guards were stationed!
"What's going on?!"
Tang Guodong was the first to withdraw from the resting state, quickly stood up, and looked at the periphery of the camp.
The others also came to their senses, hurriedly covered their ears, and got up from the ground in unison, looking at the place where the wailing was emanating.
Zhang Ji frowned and looked at the position of the four people, they really didn't make any preparations!
The palm of the hand flipped rapidly, and the template of the terrifying golden worm appeared in the hand of the book.
He knew what kind of monster this dizzying attack came from, which is why he took out the terrifying golden cockroach.
The next moment, Zhang Ji summoned the terrifying golden worm with a little difficulty, which itself has a certain relationship with the power of the spiritual level, so it has a certain resistance to this terrible wail.
That's right, this wailing is a mental attack!
With the Golden Worm in front of him, Zhang Shu couldn't help but feel better, and he then focused his attention on the situation on the outskirts of the camp.
At this moment, the minds of the four people closest to those phantoms almost fell into a blank, which was probably even more dazed and powerless than looking directly at the insect face of the four-star outstanding terrifying golden cockroach!
Not far from the four of them, several berserk tree corpses were wandering towards their location......
