"After the natural disaster, we defended the cemetery very tightly, so there was no resurrection of the dead, but you know, there are always some poor families who can only bury their dead relatives in a random roll of cloth in the wild, and recently my farmers have found some of these resurrected dead near the farm, they are definitely the dead buried in the woodland, yes, because we recognize the identity of most of them. Gregor received Zhang Li cordially, although he was a little disappointed after hearing that he was only one person, but after learning that he was still a paladin, that disappointment disappeared, and he obviously regarded Zhang Li as the kind of adventurer who dared to act alone.

"This caused panic among the people, at first we thought it was some dark wizard who started our idea, but soon we found out that the number of those resurrected was very small, only one or two at first, and the body was full of gnawing marks, we thought that some infected beast caused them to come back to life, so we sent a few teams to kill the nearby beasts, but they didn't come back, we felt that something was wrong, and then I sent more people, and the result was all the same, the forest was like a huge mouth, as long as you go in, don't think about coming out again, my people live in panic all day long, which makes them gradually lose their fighting spiritMore and more people want to escape here, so I'm hoping to hire some strong team of adventurers to help investigate what's going on. ”

This is the specific information of the mission, and then Gregor continued: "If you can help me find out the specific situation, I will pay you very much, the creed of the Agamander family is to create wealth generously, as long as you can help me kill the culprit, I will give you a large sum of money, enough for you to buy a house in the city and marry a beautiful wife, if you can't do anything, please at least find out who resurrected these dead bodies, so that I can have a number in my heart, and I don't have to suffer from fear every day." ”

Zhang Li accepted this task, after all, he was here for the mission, but after hearing that he had never returned from even a team of dozens of people, he had no intention of rashly breaking into the forest.

"Please keep an eye on my armor and horses, I'll be back soon. Zhang Li began to undress under the puzzled gaze of everyone, and then instantly turned into a tiger, which frightened many people, and after nodding to Grigaud, Zhang Li rushed into the forest.

This scene gave Gregor some confidence in his heart, he was originally worried that Zhang Li would not be able to handle this task, although he looked strong, but he was really not very reliable alone, and now, this eccentric guy does have some incredible skills.

Zhang Li was running through the forest, he could have turned into an eagle to observe the situation, but at this time, the Tirisfal Woodland had not been devastated by the plague on a large scale, and the woodland still remained in its original form, that is, the trees here were still luxuriant, and the leaves were still green, not the depressed dead ash color of the Plaguelands.

If he becomes an eagle, the dense foliage will make it difficult for him to observe the situation in the woodland, but the tiger is different, the tiger is the king of the mountains and forests, and when he becomes a tiger, he can walk on the ground as if he were in danger, and no one can catch him in any danger.

Zhang Li ran through the woodland like this, and following the constant smell of rotting flesh in the air, he really found a lot of the kind of undead that Gregor said.

The undead roamed aimlessly in the woodland, and not wanting to bite the carrion of the dead human corpse with his teeth, crushed the skulls of several resurrected people with his claws, and found a lot of information on them.

Those gnawing marks, that is definitely some kind of canine, Zhang Li has lived in the wild for so many years, and knows very well what kind of animal can cause this kind of bite marks, only a canine with a sharp mouth can gnaw such traces.

Later, he found many resurrected people, and since the only traces of gnawing he observed were canids, the search area seemed to be much smaller.

"What kind of canine is digging up carcasses everywhere to eat?" and can wipe out a team of dozens of people, generally speaking, even a timberwolf will not have more than twenty of them, right?

Unless those dozens of people dare not imagine.

At this time, the sun was about to set, and Zhang Li knew that he had to find a tree to climb up to sleep, and at the same time he had to find some prey to replenish his energy.

And then.

"Whew~~~~!" came from afar.

..................

A large fire burned in the woodland in the distance.

"......" Zhang Li was originally running towards the position of the roar, after the sky was completely dark, there was a firelight on the other side, he slowed down, began to move forward cautiously, judging from the distance, this firelight was in almost the same position as the roar he had heard before, what did this portend?

There is no doubt that neither the beasts nor the undead need to make fire, it is undoubtedly living intelligent beings who make fire, and the number of bonfires means that they are numerous, and the number of them is very close to the location of the roar, Zhang Li now only hopes that they are a group of humans camped here, and they have driven away those infected canines.

However, when he finally saw the situation around the campfire, he took a big breath, what kind of human is that, that jackal's head, that is clearly a jackal!

No wonder the bite marks were so similar to the canines, no wonder the team of dozens of people was also wiped out, and roughly estimated, there were at least hundreds of these gnolls.

They didn't find Zhang Li for the time being, and Zhang Li calmly observed from the side.

He soon noticed the difference between these gnolls.

These gnolls are undoubtedly plague carriers, and their bodies show many signs of infection, such as skin decay, but the strange thing is that they are definitely not dead, nor are they as crazy as beasts, because Zhang Li can observe in a short period of time that they like to eat cooked meat, they have a stepped social structure inside, the strong eat first, and the weak can only eat carrion, among which some of the bones of the dead who have just been dug up are eaten by some small gnolls, and when most of the carrion is gnawed clean, those bones will still be left aside, and slowly become resurrected。

Zhang Li noticed that there were some jackals beside him who were making simple tools such as wooden spears and stone axes, and even some of them were still carrying out the movement of reproducing the next generation in broad daylight, which was definitely not what the dead undead would do.

It seems that the plague did not completely change them.

Zhang Li originally planned to get closer, he had no way to take this group of gnolls, if it was just a dark wizard or some other sparse group of beasts, he could still find a way to kill them, but the number of this group of gnolls was too much, so forget it.

However, it is also good to calculate the approximate number of them, so that you can go back and make a difference with Gregor.

But......
