Chapter 39: Terror Descends
Based on the above two scenarios, it is clear that the second scenario is more likely!
Of course, in the cursed world, everything is possible, and the executors are not unaware of the first possibility. If it's really the first case, it doesn't matter to the executor!
Because, if the executor is still in the cave, then the probability that the emperor zombie will find that cave is 100%! In that case, although the executors may break the attack of the Emperor Zombies by virtue of their numerical superiority, there will definitely not be too many of those villagers left, and most of them will become zombies!
That's not much different from the first case! On the contrary, the executor may also face the Emperor Zombie earlier! Therefore, it is imperative that the executors leave the large army. Even if there were no such rainy days, the executors would be separated from the villagers sooner or later.
As for Li Chengli, it was a complete accident. There is no way, Li Chengli's only two remaining relatives, a son and a big brother, are all executors, so Li Chengli naturally has to go with the executors. If you really don't let him follow, just imagine, a big brother, a son, that will leave his younger brother and father behind? If they do, they'll trigger the strongest curse!
For Xiao Chen and Meng Guoqing, of course, they didn't want Li Chengli to follow. Meng Guoqing is a brotherhood to Li Chengli, of course, what is profound is that he doesn't want to lose his conscience, and in the case of knowing that Li Chengli is more likely to die with him, he naturally hopes that Li Chengli will stay in the cave with the villagers.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, is different. He really regards Li Chengli as his father!
Xiao Chen has no father since he was a child, and his mother left for some reason when he was very young and never appeared again. Therefore, Xiao Chen enjoys this feeling of having love! He didn't want Li Chengli to die! He still wants to wait for the time when he performs this task again, Li Chengli is still alive, and they can still meet!
It can be said that Li Chengli followed the executor and walked out of a rather dangerous behavior. You know, the last few days of the mission are the most dangerous time for the executors, they are destined to touch the God King Zombie! When the time comes, it will be a problem for them to protect themselves, let alone divide their forces to protect him! So, when the time comes, he can be said to be mortal! Xiao Chen even decided that even if it was to trigger the strongest curse, he would try to leave Li Chengli on the side of the cave! But Kuroko's words changed his mind.
Heizi said to him at the time: "Take Li Chengli with you, you must know that you and Meng Guoqing's cursed things, the background given by the cursed world is the awakening of the family bloodline!" Since Li Chengli is not a Mandate of Heaven, then he is both your father and Meng Guoqing's younger brother, and such an important task is not a Mandate of Heaven, then this arrangement of the cursed world must have its deep meaning! Maybe in the end, our life and death will ultimately be pinned on him! ”
After listening to Heizi's words, Xiao Chen had to sigh for the nth time, this is a senior executor! Without the experience of more than a dozen missions, how could he have such a keen sense of observation? I'm afraid that only a senior executor like Heizi will know about this kind of thing, and newcomers like Xiao Chen and Meng Guoqing don't know anything about these at all! They have always thought that the background of the cursed thing given by the cursed world is just a far-fetched fit of the cursed world! After all, there are no curses for these Destiny Beings themselves!
But in fact, this is not the case, according to the experience gained by Kuroko in performing tasks, in the process of performing tasks, there are many executors who get cursed things casually! That's what the Cursed World is attached to!
This is not to say that the executor is cursed for no reason, but it is the same thing that has been paid! It's as if the Enforcers had to take a risk to acquire other cursed things, which of course made it impossible to give them out of thin air! It's just that the Cursed World has advanced this process!
Because in the eyes of the cursed world, these executors will definitely die on their own strength alone! In order to increase the strength of the executor, the cursed world is thus endowed with a cursed thing, so that it can fight in the curse!
Because when cursing the world, the executor will not be put in a mortal place, and if there is really an executor who falls into a mortal situation, then it is his own fault. It's like Zhang Wei, who took the initiative to send it to the emperor zombie, who will die if he doesn't die?
Therefore, Heizi said that at the critical moment, Li Chengli's power became possible. But they are willing not to be so powerful, because if the cursed world really arranges for Li Chengli to make a move, it means that with the strength of the executor, they can't deal with that emperor zombie, even if they rely on many cursed things to win a glimmer of life, it is just a last breath! In the end, everyone will die! Only in this way will the Cursed World arrange for the natives of a mission world to help them!
The executors have no way to deal with these natures, they can only carry on under the arrangement of the cursed world, and it is impossible to resist at all, because the cursed world can easily wipe them out! Even if they become top executors!
In this way, the five executors, plus Li Chengli, and the six people broke away from the main army and continued to march towards the depths of Hengyuan Mountain together. According to Xiao Chen's meaning, that is, they directly traverse the entire Hengyuan Mountain, although they can't get out of the range of Hengyuan Mountain, but Li Chengli can, even if they die, Li Chengli may have a glimmer of life.
If they are lucky enough to escape this catastrophe, then Li Chengli can still go out of the mountain, even if all the villagers left in the cave are dead, then as long as Li Chengli is retained as a villager of Lijia Village, I believe that when they enter this mission world for the second time, they will still have a complete background, so that they will not be blinded and explore the source of this mission from scratch.
You must know that if all the executors die in this mission, then the mission will naturally end, and the hell teleportation array of this mission will also collapse. In the same way, if all the NPCs related to the curse die in this mission, then even if the executor successfully leaves, and they do not obtain the root curse, they still have the opportunity to enter this mission world, then what awaits them, except for the zombie type mission, will have nothing to do with this mission.
They can only wait for the unknown to come, and then retrace the clues to the location of the root curse.
But if they can participate in the mission again in the context of this mission, then they will continue this curse, and the final boss of the next mission will be this emperor zombie, and the root curse will still be the jade cicada with its mouth!
This qiē is not only to leave a way out for Li Chengli, but also to lay a good foundation for themselves. Assuming they survive this mission, of course, and don't die in the next mission before it begins!
Another night passed quietly, do the math, Xiao Chen and they have been in this mission world for four full days, and according to Kuroko's calculations, this fifth day will be a very critical day, because on this day, the emperor zombie will really wake up!
Imagine that the emperor zombie was sleeping, turning a tomb robber into a ghost equivalent to a high difficulty in the middle, and without fully awakening, he killed Zhang Wei, who was one of the strongest among the seven executors, such a powerful ghost, even Xiao Chen, who already had the heart of a strong man, couldn't help but shake it. Not to mention others.
Although Heizi and Wei Fanghua, as senior executors, buried their fears deep in their hearts with amazing perseverance, they were inevitably worried. Zhang Qian has long been out of the woods, if Wei Fanghua hadn't been taking care of her, I'm afraid she would have lost her combat effectiveness. Of course, with her low-level cursed thing, she really can't really do anything, at most it's just a delay of one or two infected zombies.
The only good news is that the female ghost that emerged from Huang Xu's cursed thing has not appeared for a long time, which is good news in the eyes of the executor. If the female ghost often comes to harass them, then they will not only have to waste energy to accompany her, but also increase the curse resistance of their cursed things and reduce the curse effect, so that they will be even more uncertain about dealing with the emperor zombies when the time comes.
And if this female ghost and the emperor zombie appear together, it is not to be afraid. Because among the zombie tasks, the most terrifying thing is not the source zombie, what other emperor zombies, but the zombie tide! This little ghost tide, which can be compared to the ghost tide in the top cursed mission, is the thing that kills the other performers the most in zombie missions.
And a low-level ghost is just such an inconspicuous member of the zombie tide that it can't make any big waves at all!
Finally, even in the jungle, when the executors could see the sun, all the executors suddenly felt a palpitation in unison! They know that the strongest curse has finally awakened, and what awaits them is a horror that will make them desperate!
Moreover, the sky that had just cleared up had become cloudy in just two minutes, and the clouds were even lower than before!
It was as if a large cloth not far from the ground had covered the entire sky, and the entire range of Hengyuan Mountain was plunged into darkness.
And beyond the confines of Hengyuan Mountain, there are no clouds!
Because Xiao Chen and the others walked fast enough, after crossing the entire Hengyuan Mountain, they were not far from the side of the mountain, so they could clearly see this clear boundary. It seems that as long as they can escape from the range of Hengyuan Mountain, the executors will be safe. It's a pity that if they really take that line, they will be ruthlessly wiped out by the cursed world! In comparison, it is still more likely to survive against the emperor zombies.
