Chapter 255 The Dead in the Rain

"You say God must be lonely, but I don't think so."

"They're actually very controlling, and they want to keep their favorite things in their hands, and they never get tired of it, and so do I......"

Sitting in the cold cave, Natsu looked at the fire that was gradually rising in front of her, thinking about what the blonde Lori said to herself in the treehouse.

"Is she explaining what happened...... What a girl who doesn't speak frankly. ”

A smile appeared on her face, and the staff beside her levitated, emitting a hint of heat from it.

"Steaming!"

The cave suddenly turned into a hot spring-like scene, white mist curled up from her body, countless droplets began to condense on the top of the cave, and her soaked clothes were quickly dried by the heat.

"Tick."

A drop of water fell, hitting her somewhat hot cheek and sliding down her fair and transparent skin.

"The Great Magister is indeed a lot more convenient than before, I can control all the demon guide props within a certain range around me and use them as a medium for spellcasting."

The staff flew around her under the control of her spiritual power, and finally slowly landed on the ground.

"Wook!"

A stone slowly rose from the ground into the air, shook it twice, and then fell to the side.

"Ordinary objects can also be manipulated, but the less magic can be infused inside, the more difficult it is to manipulate, and stones are not good demon guides."

She thought in her mind about the difference between this new ability and telekinesis manipulation after promotion:

"Unlike the pure spiritual application of superpowers, this is a sublimation of magic control, more like a spell; In many films, magicians can manipulate objects freely, and the situation looks exactly like when they activate their superpowers. ”

"Master, there's a little rabbit down there."

The black-clothed little Lori in charge of the investigation flew in from outside:

"Do you want me to get it? After killing, you can use the rain to wash away the blood, throw away the inedible internal organs, and set it on the fire to roast it......"

"Your appearance and words don't match each other too much."

Natsu took her to his lap and touched her hair:

"Just let me do this kind of thing, you can be a good little Lori with peace of mind."

"But master, you are hungry now, of course I have to think about you, your affairs are the highest priority in my heart."

The little Lori in black leaned on her and enjoyed the master's touch.

"So, you're willing to let you kill someone? Even if the other party is an innocent good person. ”

"Of course, master, whether it is a good person or a bad person, as long as it is your will, I will kill them."

The little Lori in black said something that made Xia a little frightened.

"Fortunately, I got her, and this is the world of high martial arts, and her ability is not so absolute."

Xia thought of the strange crimes of the 28th century that are difficult to solve:

"If a vicious guy gains this kind of power, wouldn't he be able to do whatever he wants in that environment on Earth? Technology is not a panacea, and there are too many secrets to be explained by science. ”

"Goo......

Then her stomach rang.

"Master, I'm going to get that little rabbit!"

Hearing this voice, the little Lori in black flew out in a hurry.

"Forget it, let her go."

Natsu knows the harshness of survival in the wild, even at her current level, she often can't find food in this relatively resource-poor forest, because she needs to keep traveling, and it takes a certain amount of time and energy to find food, and it is not just as long as she walks forward to encounter something to eat.

"But something is wrong along the way......"

She recalls the last time she was here, and senses a lot of problems:

"I remember that there used to be a lot of ferocious animals here, and although edible fungi and fruits may not be everywhere, they are not so much that they cannot be seen once a day, and there were no monsters here before, but Stephanie felt a lot of dark aura on the way."

"Yikes! Master, that little rabbit is dead! ”

The surprised voice of the little Lori in black came to my mind.

"With such heavy rain, there are hungry beasts coming out to hunt?"

Although Xia was a little strange, she didn't care too much:

"Maybe there's a snake or a poisonous insect lurking nearby, so come back when you're dead, and just give me some jerky and fruit......

"No, master, it was killed by a monster!"

Monster?

Xia stood up from the ground vigilantly.

What can be called a monster is often much more difficult than a beast, and a considerable number of them have intelligence, making them the great enemy of the traveler.

"Psychics!"

Yan Zhong's blue light flashed, and he felt an evil thought under the side of the cave.

This thought is bloodthirsty and cold, a bit like an undead monster.

"Master, it's Ghoul!"

After seeing the other party's message, the little Lori in black said nervously:

"And there's more than one, there's a big group in the distance, and they're coming this way."

"Come back."

Natsu kicked out the fire and planted a powerful magic array outside the cave.

Hidden enchantments are ineffective against ghouls, as they can sense smells and the heat emitted by living things, but due to their intelligence, they can still be afraid of the strong, and Xia has set up a dangerous offensive circle in the hope that the ghouls will not come near here after tasting the bitterness.

These undead were once ordinary humans, but for unknown reasons they became truly undead, they were extremely hostile to a single living being, and had an unusual thirst for flesh and blood, and there were frequent rumors of human villages being attacked by them, and those villages were later turned into dead lands.

"Ghouls often wander in graves, in the wilderness, in the desert, or in places where someone has just died, and if they appear in the forest, there must be something in the vicinity that attracts them."

Natsu held the sword in her hand, and the staff floated beside her, so that she could easily perform a double attack in the rest of the battle.

"Go and scout if there are any necromancers nearby, and then pay attention to whether there are dead people on the ground, such a large-scale migration is a bit abnormal."

She gave a command to the little Lori in black.

It didn't take long for the report to come to mind:

"Master, there are so many corpses nearby! Most of them have decayed, and they appear to be normal humans from their lifetimes...... Wow! These corpses are moving! ”

The little Lori in black seemed to be frightened.

"It sounds like someone is casting a spell, but I don't feel any fluctuations in necromancy."

Xia closed his eyes and stood there for a long time, but he didn't find any signs of casting spells.

"Where are the bodies?"

She asked in her head.

"To the southwest, master!"

Natsu flew out of the cave.

A pair of white eyes lit up in the darkness, staring at her body.

But as she erupted with the deterrence of a high-level mage, those eyes quickly hid again.

Mages are a greater threat to undead creatures than warriors, because their weakness is not in the body, but in the depths of the soul, and powerful mages mean true death to them.

"These people died so miserably."

After flying to the position that the black-clothed little Lori said, a large body of miserable death appeared in front of Xia's eyes.

The corpses were supposed to have been torn apart by something, almost none of them were intact, they were shaking and rising from the ground, their broken bones exposed in the air, rattling from the heavy rain.

"Very faint soul fires, these are naturally occurring undead, and someone didn't create them on purpose."

Shanahan looked at his surroundings, this was neither a cemetery nor a dark place, and it didn't look like a place where the undead could be born.

"Quack, click, click......"

The two corpses were keenly aware of the breath of the living in the air, and stretched out their rotting arms towards her, unlike ghouls with a certain amount of sanity, ordinary dead people would not be afraid of mages.

"Soul Scattered!"

In the face of these tragic deaths, Xia used the dispersal magic in the necromancer, and all those dense corpses fell down in an instant, returning to sleep.

"Master, there's still one over there!"

The little Lori in black flew to her side and pointed to the left.

"Let's take a look."

Natsu flew for miles in the heavy rain, clearing hundreds of newly created undead along the way, and then unexpectedly felt that the rain was a little lighter.

"Let's go get rid of those ghouls first, and then move on."

She flew in the air and said to the little Lori in black:

"It seems to be passing rain, and it just crosses our route, so you should be able to avoid it by flying forward for a while."

"Master, your clothes ......"

The little Lori in black held her hand and felt her hand a little cold.

"I'm the Grandmaster of the Sword now, and my body is stronger than before, I don't know how many times, are you still afraid that I won't be sick because of this rain?"

Natsu grinned and grabbed her back, returning to the same place where they had met the ghoul.

"Soul Ingestion!"

Although she was only a three-turn necromancer, it was not too easy to deal with this kind of low-level undead, and after a few large-scale spells were scattered, countless soul lights floated from below her.

Most of these rays are gray and represent tainted souls, floating in the air and then gradually dissipating.

But there were also a few souls with pitch-black and blood-red brilliance, these souls had gained great power through guò killing creatures, and they stubbornly floated in the air and refused to disperse, Xia used a few wind blades to sweep them clean, and not a single one was left.

"Master, these things should be very useful to you, and it would be a shame to destroy them like this."

The little Lori in black said with a finger.

"These dead were all human beings in their lifetime, so let's just let them rest like this."

Xia looked at those gray souls with sorrow, and his eyes were full of pity:

"Like the corpses, they must have been attacked by monsters, and after a fierce battle, they died miserably, and finally became a monster like a ghoul; It's already pitiful, how can I do anything with their souls. ”

"Master, there's another one out there!"

The little Lori in black detected a faint fluctuation.

Natsu and she flew to the top of a tree, and found a corpse sandwiched between the branches trying to break free, its dense foliage shielding it from the wind and rain, and its face could be seen before it died.

"Master? What's wrong with you. ”

The little Lori in black noticed that Xia's expression was a little strange, and took her hand and asked.

"This man is the shopkeeper who sold us the balls."

Xia looked at the old face and said in a low tone:

"These corpses in the forest...... Most likely, all of them are inhabitants of the Pampol Fortress! ”R1152
