Chapter 6: The Corpse King's Lair
It was a surprise that Li Qiang knew that the Corpse King's lair was located, which saved Zhou Yi at least a lot of valuable time, at this time it was almost around 4.5 o'clock in the afternoon, and it was only two or three hours before it got dark.
Once it enters the dark night and the group of corpses comes out of the hole, Zhou Yi can only obediently wait for death, so he must kill the corpse king within this time, and if he is unsuccessful, he will become benevolent!
Under the leadership of Li Qiang, Zhou Yi came to a huge ancient tree in the west of the village, this giant tree is estimated to take twenty or thirty people to surround it, and there is a tree hole more than one person high under the trunk, this is the lair of the corpse king!
Once, when Li Qiang was hunting, the prey accidentally escaped into this tree hole, and then he saw that the prey was eaten by a blood-red skin and tall zombie in the cave.
At this time, it is already dusk, and it is only one or two hours before dark, which means that it must be less than an hour, no, in order to seek stability, the head of this corpse king must be cut off within half an hour, because it will take an hour to bring the head back from here, if the head of the corpse king is not brought back when it is completely dark, I am afraid that every minute slow, several more innocent villagers will die tragically!
Zhou Yi looked solemnly at the tree hole in front of him, which was more than one person tall and could accommodate three people in parallel, there were a large number of dead branches above the cave entrance, hanging down, as if forming a natural curtain for the cave entrance, making it impossible to see the situation in the cave, only knowing that the cave was pitch black, but fortunately Li Qiang brought a few torches from the village.
Looking at Li Qiang's death-defying appearance, Zhou Yi couldn't help but feel funny, because Zhou Yi didn't plan to let him in, with Li Qiang's attributes, it was enough to deal with an ordinary zombie, let alone deal with the corpse king, at most it could only be used as a few shields, dispensable, and after cutting off the corpse king's head, someone must take the head back to the village, Zhou Yi didn't think that after he killed the corpse king, he would have extra strength to rush back to the village.
Zhou Yi took a torch from Li Qiang's hand and lit it, and said lightly: "Brother Qiang, you can wait for me here!" I'll just go in alone! ”
"Are you looking down on me? I'm also the leader of the hunting party, and I may die at the hands of the Corpse King, but for the sake of the people of the village, I must go in! Speaking of the people in the village, a trace of tenderness flashed in Li Qiang's eyes, presumably there must be people in the village that he is willing to protect with his life.
"One of the two of us must go in and cut off the head of the corpse king, and the other must bring the head back, it is impossible for two people to go in together, there is no point!" Zhou Yi looked at Li Qiang with a calm face, "You should know your strength, you have no possibility of killing the Corpse King at all, so you can only be responsible for bringing the Corpse King's head back!" ”
"Do you have the strength to kill the Corpse King?" In Li Qiang's eyes, Zhou Yi is still a weak teenager.
"I can cut off its head!"
Li Qiang didn't know where Zhou Yi's confidence came from, and he just wanted to make a sarcastic remark, but when he saw Zhou Yi's radiant eyes, he closed his mouth.
The eyes are the windows of the soul, and many things can be seen from a person's eyes, and what Li Qiang sees from Zhou Yi's eyes is incomparable self-confidence, which is the confidence that can only succeed and can only succeed.
Zhou Yi still has a lot of things to do, the revenge of killing his father has not yet been avenged, his life has just begun, he will not allow himself to die in this small task space!
In the end, Li Qiang still chose to compromise, there are two reasons for compromise, one is that Zhou Yi said that it is indeed reasonable, there must be someone responsible for bringing the head back, and the other is that if he is allowed to enter the corpse cave, he will definitely die, and although he doesn't know what Zhou Yi's strength is, he is so confident, he must have a certain degree of certainty, it is better to choose to believe him.
Zhou Yi took the lit torch, and suddenly had an idea, and used the torch to burn the dead branches and leaves hanging on the entrance of the cave, if this tree could be set on fire, wouldn't it be possible to kill the corpse king without much effort!
However, this task obviously does not have such an obvious bug, all the branches and leaves on this giant tree cannot be ignited no matter how they are burned, at most they will become a little blacker, and finally Zhou Yi has to give up this idea.
Zhou Yi took out his last hole card from the climbing bracelet, if it weren't for this hole card, I'm afraid this task would be dead for him!
Name: Fruit of Strength
Purpose: Increases STR by 1 for 5 minutes, stacking up to 5 times.
Description: A short-lived sense of power!
Name: Agile Fruit
What it does: Increases agility by 1 for 5 minutes, stacking up to 5 times.
Description: A brief sense of agility!
The 5 power fruits and 3 agility fruits bought in the "food" before, this is Zhou Yi's last hole card, although it seems that getting 5 points of strength in five minutes does not seem to have a big effect, but if it is matched with his anti-heaven cheat, it will be very different!
Zhou Yi quickly ate 5 power fruits and 3 agility fruits, and then put on a cheat, and the "+" sign behind the crazy point power.
Sure enough, the strength is enough to point a terrifying 50 points, which is just five times the original strength, and a full ten times the strength of ordinary people! Agility has also reached 6.
Whether it is a power fruit or a cheat, there are only five minutes, win or lose within five minutes, life and death in five minutes, once it exceeds five minutes, Zhou Yi no longer has any hole cards, and he will definitely die!
Zhou Yi held a torch in his left hand and a firewood knife in his right hand, picking up the dead branches and leaves hanging on the entrance of the cave, and as soon as he stepped into the cave, he felt a gust of wind blowing on his face, and he couldn't help but shiver.
The vines hung down in mid-air, obstructing Zhou Yi's vision, so that Zhou Yi could not see the situation in the cave clearly, so he could only walk forward slowly, his body and nerves were always tense, beware of the sudden attack of the corpse king.
After walking about 20 steps, you can see the end, and there is an uncovered coffin erected on the tree wall at the end, which must be the "hotbed" of the corpse king, Zhou Yi held his breath, held his breath, held the firewood knife, and slowly approached the coffin, and found that the coffin was empty, and suddenly a gust of wind hit behind him!
