Chapter 17: The Strange Little Girl
A gentle breeze blew through the silent wasteland, save for the occasional roar of a junior zombie.
Lu Dong and his party quickly swept by, looking for the missing corpse king.
"No, you won't be able to find the Corpse King at all if you continue like this. Damn, are these corpse kings successful? The team leader said helplessly
"I don't know, it's never been such a weird thing. It's a bit strange that even the mutant zombies are gone. Another said
"I think we have to find a place where we can hide a lot of mutated zombies as soon as possible, otherwise we will definitely not find the Corpse King." Lu Dong said to everyone
"You mean valleys, low-lying places, caves and things like that?" The captain asked Lu Dong
"yes, I think it's somewhere where you can hide a lot of zombies. Either a valley, a cave, or deep in the jungle. Lu Dong said
"Bring the map," said the captain
One of them took out a map of the terrain around the fortress and handed it to the captain.
"It's all plains around here, it shouldn't be possible to hide, there is a jungle in the south gate, and between the east gate and the north gate is a mountain forest, is it possible to be in the dense forest in the northeast direction?" The captain said
"It's possible, and there's a good chance. The mountainous terrain of the Northeast is dense and complex, and there are high mountains. I suspect it's in the northeast," Lu Dong affirmed
"Are you so sure you're in the Northeast? Why not the jungle at the South Gate? The captain asked, puzzled
"I said it was intuition, do you believe it?" Lu Dong stared at the captain after speaking
"Trust your instincts, then let's go northeast and look for it." The captain stared at Lu Dong with blazing eyes and said
"To the northeast, watch out for the sneak attack of mutant zombies and beasts. Try not to draw their attention. Let's go," the captain said, waving his hand
The crowd quickly moved northeast, silently. It's almost time to get to the front of the mountain forest. The captain raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop.
"Now let's start working in pairs and scattering the search. Report the situation immediately. The captain said to the crowd
Everyone quickly dispersed into the jungle, and Lu Dong was naturally in a group with Wu Ming. The two of them quickly advanced deeper into the dense forest, which was quiet.
The two of them didn't see zombies or mutant beasts all the way, until they saw a small lake, and saw a little girl standing by the lake.
"How can there be a little girl there?" Wu Ming was the first to discover
"I don't know, it's a little weird!" Lu Dong continued
Suddenly, the little girl turned her head to look at the location where Lu Dong and the two were hiding, and the two were startled.
"She's not going to find us, is she?" Wu Ming said with a shocked face
"Hehe," Lu Dong smiled helplessly
"Did you really find it?" Wu Ming still asked in disbelief
"I've found it, let's go! Get out! Lu Dong said helplessly
The two slowly walked out of their hiding place and walked towards the little girl. The little girl looked like she was about 5 or 6 years old, and she was carved in pink.
"Why are you here? Little sister? Wu Ming asked with a smile
"......" the little girl did not reply
"Is it a mute?" Wu Ming continued
Lu Dong stared at the little girl with burning eyes, and the little girl also stared at Lu Dong curiously, staring at each other with one person and one corpse.
"Let's go! She doesn't seem to be able to speak? Lu Dong said to Wu Ming
"Uh...... It's a pity that it's so beautiful that it can't speak. Wu Ming said with a sigh
After saying that, the two continued to search for the corpse king in the jungle, but the little girl still followed the two.
"Why is she following us?" Wu Ming asked Lu Dong
"I don't know, forget it, let her follow! It won't affect us anyway. Lu Dong said
"But that would expose the target?" Wu Ming said distressedly
"No, didn't you see that she would hide? Although the skill is not very skilled. Lu Dong said to Wu Ming
"Well, well!" The two of them silently marched all the way to the depths of the jungle.
The two of them swept forward quickly, unaware that the little girl who was following them had been learning their movement skills. The two of them walked quickly, and the little girl also moved quickly.
"Woo ......" A dazzling light appeared in the sky ahead. The two looked up at the valley ahead. Swiftly swept towards the place where the flare was emitted.
"Roar...... Roar...... Roar...... "Roar" eight terrifying howls rang out in succession.
The faces of the two changed, damn it, which stupid fork made the corpse king find out.
The two of them quickly moved towards the position where the signal was given, and when they were close to the position where the battle took place, they drew their weapons one after another.
There were forty or fifty people fighting against the eight corpse kings in the place where they fought, and there were countless mutated zombies around.
Lu Dong quickly drew the Tang knife, Wu Ming took out his two guns, and the two instantly joined the battle.
The surrounding mutant zombies saw Lu Dong and the two rushing towards this side, and suddenly separated 4 high-level mutant zombies and rushed towards the two.
"Sigh ......" Two tongue thorns instantly appeared in front of the two. Lu Dongtang's knife was plucked from the bottom to the top, and the two tongue stabs instantly changed direction and pierced towards the two of them.
Wu Ming instantly fired fiercely at the 4 mutant zombies, "Bang bang bang." The bullet instantly hit the heads of the four mutant zombies, and the four mutated zombies lost their lives in the sprint.
"Bang Bang" The corpses of four mutant zombies fell to the ground.
"Go and help them fend off the Corpse King." Lu Dong said to Wu Ming!
The corpse group watched Wu Ming cleanly kill the 4 mutant zombies, and then the two corpse kings broke away from the corpse group of the besieging crowd and rushed towards the two of them at great speed.
"Huh......" One of the corpse kings slashed at Lu Dong from top to bottom.
"Ding......" Lu Dong blocked the Tang knife towards the claws of the corpse king. The Corpse King's other claw stabbed at Lu Dong's chest, and Lu Dong was forced to retreat.
And the other corpse king wanted to rush towards Wu Ming, but how could Wu Ming fight hard with the corpse king in close combat? When the Corpse King was dozens of meters away from him, he kept shooting at the Corpse King. Although it can't do any big damage to the Corpse King, it also prevents the Corpse King from getting close to him.
"Ah......h
"Damn, defend, wait for backup, don't attack randomly." A high-level evolutionary said
"Ah......h
"Damn, we can't go on like this, if we go on like this, the whole army will be destroyed." Lu Dong thought helplessly
"Or use psychic abilities? Otherwise, everyone here will die. Lu Dong thought silently
"Hum ......" A huge spiritual power emanated from Lu Dong's body, and all the mutated zombies, as well as the advanced and below evolutionary beings, were suppressed to the ground. Only the high-level evolutionaries and the corpse king are struggling to support themselves.
The coercion was getting stronger and stronger, and when the advanced evolutionary and the corpse king were a little unbearable, another powerful spiritual force instantly invaded the battlefield and offset more than half of Lu Dong's spiritual power.
Lu Dong was caught off guard and sat on the ground, looking for the location of another spiritual power with an ugly face. But no matter how much I searched, I couldn't find the direction of another spiritual power.
Lu Dong, who was helpless, could only continue to strengthen the output of spiritual power, and beads of sweat with beans kept appearing on Lu Dong's forehead.
"Huh......" No one noticed that the little girl was looking at Lu Dong curiously. As if he was curious about Lu Dong's spiritual power, as the little girl's spiritual power continued to strengthen the output.
Lu Dong's face became more and more ugly, and the rest of the people were even more miserable, most of the mutant zombies and advanced and below the evolutionary were screaming miserably. The sound of the bones being squeezed resounded throughout the audience, and Lu Dong struggled to support it, he didn't dare to stop the output of spiritual power.
He was afraid that as soon as he withdrew his spiritual power, another spiritual power would kill everyone.
Just when Lu Dong couldn't support it anymore, that spiritual power receded like a tide, retreating silently, and no one found out where that spiritual power came from.
All the Evolvers sat on the ground panting, while the mutated zombies wailed on the ground.
Suddenly, the eight corpse kings howled into the sky and ran towards the depths of the jungle, while the other mutated zombies followed the corpse king and retreated.
Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and everyone silently regained their strength in place.
In a short time, more and more evolutionaries came to the battlefield, and more and more people came.
"What happened?" Long Tian said to everyone
"We discovered the location of the Corpse King, but we didn't expect the signal flare sent out to be discovered by the Corpse King, and we were besieged. At the critical moment of the battlefield, a powerful spiritual force appeared, and in an instant, we and the zombies were pressed to the ground. Then a more powerful spiritual force appeared, which in turn suppressed the spiritual power that had been bought before, and just when everyone couldn't support it, that spiritual power disappeared. Then the mutant corpses went deep into the forest. One of the advanced evolutionaries said
"Are you saying that two powerful spiritual forces appeared on the field and pressed you and the zombies to the ground, and then the two spiritual forces competed, and then Mo Min wonderfully retreated?" Long Tian asked with a frown
"Yes, Lord Ryujin, everyone around you can testify." The Advanced Evolutionary said
The other evolutionaries all said yes, but Wu Ming looked at Lu Dong strangely.
"That power was yours just now, right?" Wu Ming asked in a low voice
"Yes, but there is an even greater force." Lu Dong returned weakly
"It's strange who sent that power out. It's even stronger than yours. Wu Ming continued
"I don't know, I suspect that our team has a strong spiritual power, but it is very hidden." Lu Dong's eyes swept over everyone
"Since the corpse kings have all run away, and you are all too much power, prepare to withdraw to the fortress. I'm waiting here for people from several other directions. Long Tian said to everyone
Then everyone helped each other and walked out of the dense forest, but everyone did not notice a thin figure following behind everyone.
