150 small villages
Silent, the wind and sand blowing, in the empty polluted desert, Jack harnessed the flying giant claws to hurry, looming, some huge bones would bulge and move in the distance from time to time.
Jack didn't wait for the so-called companions, and after a brief briefing of the situation and danger, he headed to the small village, and it was up to Jessica and her sister to decide what to do.
"Hmm, the remains of the ants, did they flee back to the village after encountering the undead here?"
Flying Claw landed on a brown sand dune, and Jack squinted around, a few dark ants fell to the sand and gnawed beyond recognition.
Trembling and hissing, a small piece of blood-stained white bone jumped towards Jack, seemingly the remains of some kind of desert creature, affected by the 'waves of the dead', and gradually gaining some ability to move.
"The remains of the ants also have some signs of undeadness, although the strength is negligible, but the scale and number of the entire polluted desert are too ......"
Jack frowned and grasped the leaping bones in his hands, and he walked slowly as he looked at the remains of the ants, the flying claws beside him shaking their heads and following closely.
"Woo, I miss home......"
Like a whisper in his ear, Jack heard the voice of a young girl, sobbing and calling for a slight silence, knowing that this was not a living person in need of help.
"Ghosts, there are quite a few of them. ”
Jack turned his head to look, and at some point there appeared transparent and flickering white figures, they were glowing and whispering around, as if they were the remnants of dead characters from the past.
"Gone. ”
Jack placed the bloodstained white bone on the ground, then jumped onto the back of the flying claw, and the blue fire-stained monstrous claw flew away with only a slight sweep, and the remains of the undead ant were reduced to ashes.
"It's getting worse, and if the undead do gather into a 'wave', they may sweep through one-fifth of the purification area, and several nearby medium-sized cities and supply areas will not be spared. ”
Looking down, Jack shook his head slightly after taking a few glances at the situation on the ground in the sky, and the increasing number of ghosts began to devour and merge with each other, and some more powerful individuals were also born, which abound in the polluted desert.
Jack didn't stay any longer, the parasitic plants in his body determined their destination and hurried away, and very quickly, he found a ruined village surrounded by bones and beast corpses.
Scarred and tattered, the stone walls surrounding the outside of the village are no longer visible, and the transformed fields that have been rammed and destroyed by undead creatures are countless, and the faint traces of the villagers' resistance can still be seen in the sky.
Roaring and roaring, a huge skeleton with a body size of nearly five meters swung a fist at the flying Jack, it seemed that he might have been a humanoid polluted creature before his death, and his intelligence was relatively high among the undead creatures, and most of the undead bones were also clustered around it.
As the Flying Claw approached, the skeleton grabbed a moving skeleton and threw it out, targeting Jack and the Giant Claw Wings in the sky, apparently trying to knock him down.
"It's a little strange, there are too many living people in the village, if it were an undead of this size, there shouldn't be a few survivors, even if there were a few wizard apprentices living here, it would be impossible to protect so many people. ”
Unconcerned, Jack thought as he harnessed the flying claws over the bones, shattering the undead creatures and throwing skeletons before they could pass through to powder, and a thick vine crushed and whipped them away.
"The village is surrounded by renovated fields and filtering ponds, scattered warehouses and simple outposts, stone walls enclosed by residential areas, and perhaps the focal point for school construction at the center. ”
Jack frowned and flew to the center of the village, the undead creatures on the periphery were tens of thousands at a glance, although there were no too powerful individuals, but it was not easy to eliminate them all.
Generally speaking, the ordinary people who can survive this situation are only about ten people at most, and these wizard apprentices can easily take them away with their pets, who would have thought that there are no less than two hundred people in Jack's perception now, which makes him scratch his head a little.
"The village has long been breached, but no one has died, as if there is something that has suppressed the spirits. ”
Jack jumped off the flying claw and landed in the village, the foul-smelling air instantly penetrated his nose, and several strange creatures with rotting flesh roared and rushed towards him, and the moment he approached, the 'spirit shift' was activated.
The earthy yellow hand condensed and trembled, and the rotting corpses that had just rushed over directly hit them, but they were crumpled into pieces just by holding them slightly, and the rotten pieces of flesh exploded in the air, and the undead creatures who did not feel pain also wailed for some reason.
The soul and flesh have been destroyed, and the large earthy yellow hands that are thrived by the 'spirit transfers' can devour the spiritual power, which has some miraculous effects on the soul-driven undead creatures, and it is more suitable for dealing with this kind of scene than the 'parasitic plant'.
The undead were agitated, the skeleton ghosts that had been roaming around were gathered by the sound and smell, and some powerful individuals on the outskirts of the village also poured in, as if Jack had become food bait in their eyes.
The spirit bubble trembled slightly, and the earthy yellow hand split the cross-shaped mouthparts in the center, and under the urging of Jack, it rushed towards the nearby undead, like crushing insects, and the big hand close to twenty meters began to ravage those white bones and ghosts.
In less than a few breaths, the undead near the center of the village were cleared of a lot, and some of the more intelligent individuals even began to flee outside, but the low-level individuals with no intelligence continued to pour in, and Jack also became slightly irritable.
"Ghosts, rotting corpses, skeletons, and most of the patchwork animal bones, there are quite a few of them who have reached the apprentice level, and they can't be killed, so it stands to reason that ordinary people can't survive. ”
Jack slapped a group of large skeletons away with his big hand and walked to a nearby house, flying in the sky with huge claws hovering above it, occasionally rushing down to shred a few of the stronger undead creatures.
"Western School Rescue, Open the Doors. ”
Without hurry, Jack shouted a word towards the house in front of him, and it was very clear that he heard noise and moaning from inside, but no one came out after a long time.
"Don't you have any energy to spare? It's strange that you don't even have the strength to open the door, and you can still hold on in this environment. ”
Jack's right hand was covered in a layer of stone skin, and the amplified physical strength of the 'rock body' caused it to tear through the door, and after leaving a simple command to the Flying Claw, he walked inside, just as the wizard apprentices who had come with him entered the village.
