In order not to make the rest of the road more difficult, the torches were lit, and this was another weakness of the corpse-eating creatures - they were afraid of fire, and if it came close, they would scatter like frightened birds. While this doesn't stop them from attacking them after smelling human flesh, it can at least catch them off guard.

At a fork in the road in another cave, they spotted a corpse snatcher with his back to them gnawing on a corpse, the beast didn't seem to notice anyone approaching, and it devoured the flesh on the corpse. To Marcos's surprise, the corpse snatcher appears to be acting alone, but as far as he knows, the corpse eaters are swarm monsters.

Of course, this did not prevent Anna from slashing off the head of the corpse thief with a surprise sword, but the crowd, who had thought they would not need to continue witnessing such a horrific scene, soon realized that they had stabbed the hornet's nest. Countless corpse raiders poured out of the gaps in the dirt walls around them just enough to accommodate their bodies, and the most horrific were the mutated spiders that suddenly emerged from the ground.

The spiders were undoubtedly monsters on the other side of the cave, and they had some weird purple marks on their legs, as if they were infected. Marcos was convinced that the spiders had been affected by an outbreak of an infectious disease in Neupera, and that before that they had been normal spiders common in dark caves. What is even more obvious is that they are much more aggressive now that they are infected. Perhaps they are more difficult to deal with than corpse robbers.

Marcos walked around in an irregular semicircle, trying to attract the attention of those spiders. It wasn't the most important thing to launch a deadly attack first, the first thing he had to figure out was how these spiders attacked and the special abilities that might exist on them. You know, any monster that has undergone mutation or infection is completely different from what it used to be, and the difference is too great.

The spiders used their eight legs to move quickly on the ground to get closer to their target, but until the last moment, Marcos couldn't guess how the guys would attack. So, when those spiders suddenly spun their bodies and turned themselves into sharp blades, Marcos didn't even have time to raise their knives to block. Fortunately, Karl, who was not far away, fired a precise bullet that hit the head of the rapidly spinning spider, otherwise Marcos's chest would have been peeled open.

"Be careful, Marcos. Carl reminded.

"It's a real headache. Marcos said helplessly.

"If they were so easily solved, then we could define coming to this place as an expedition. But not now, we're only here to find Morgan's diary that might have been left in a cave and to find clues to make an antidote to an infectious disease. Carl said the above in an almost joking tone, but Marcos didn't think he was joking. On the contrary, he was very serious.

"I know. Marcos nodded, and swung the sword in his hand twice.

When another spider struck Markos in the same way, a rapid arc of light followed, followed by the sound of a sharp blade slicing into the flesh. Marcos maintained a sideways position, the knife in his hand already piercing the spider's body. Sure enough, the blood of these spiders has taken on a strange purple color due to infection. Seeing this, the other spiders immediately buried their entire bodies in the ground in a way that Marcos did not expect, and hid underground.

Originally, Marcos thought that they would move underground and suddenly attack themselves, so he specially set up the ghost and god formation of Frost Saya, but what people didn't expect was that those spiders did not emerge from the ground. Not only that, but they didn't make even the slightest sound. Marcos knew that they had left the place, waiting for their next chance to attack.

On the other side, Fett and the others, who were besieged by the corpse thieves, were in a much worse situation than Marcos and Carl, who were gradually cornered by the huge number of corpse thieves. It was too risky to weave through the monster pile, so even Anna, who was full of anger, would not dare to launch such a fearless attack in such a situation. Camilli, on the other hand, tries her best to repel the incursive robbers, creating an opportunity for Fett and Anna to tear a gap in the monster pile. To be honest, that's not easy to do, because once there are a certain number of them, no amount of powerful attacks will show them a gap.

As Kamili observed the gaps that the monsters might be exposed, she gathered her mind qi and threw a fan-shaped impact of mind energy forward to her. As the impact exploded in front of the monster, Fett and Anna alternately leaped out of Camilli's side and pounced on the group of corpse robbers. Meanwhile, Markos and Carl have turned back and managed to open a gap in the monster's perimeter.

Fett danced Stonebringer and left a half-moon wound on the corpse stealer's chest, then threw a "frost" alchemy bomb to the side with his other hand. With a crisp explosion, the bodies of the corpse snatchers within the radius of the alchemy bomb explosion were all covered with a layer of frost, which also caused their movements to become extremely slow or even unable to make any movements. And Anna took advantage of this opportunity to use the power of internal strength to compress the space in the monster pile. Although the distortion of space is invisible to the naked eye, the pressure is substantial, and even Fitt took a few steps back out of the range of internal pressure.

Anna closed her eyes, her hands lightly gestured in the air with a brief gesture, and then the power condensed by the internal force compressing the space exploded in an instant. The huge palm of the embodied hand smashed hard towards the ground, and the vibration sensation followed, and the monster frozen by the alchemy bomb was crushed to pieces by its internal strength before it even had time to let out its last roar.

Camilli, who has the best vision, was pleasantly surprised to find that under Anna's attack, a huge gap appeared in the monster pile, which was undoubtedly the best opportunity. Fett and Anna had discovered the gaping gap a little later than Camille, but Camille had done the best she could. She used her mental energy to prop up a barrier that separated the monsters, and then beckoned to the two of them. "Here. ”

"Your companion is reliable. Anna said to Fett.

"I thought so too. Philippine nodded in agreement.

Carl and Marcos went around to the other side, burying the remaining monsters into the rotting soil with a dense rain of bullets and the power of the gods. This, they thought, was the best ending for the ghouls.

Whether it's a sudden attack by a monster or falling into a trap, everything that happens here is a reminder to everyone to be vigilant at all times. And everyone felt that it was necessary to discuss the next plan of action for the time being, otherwise a situation like this could happen again in this cave at any time. No one can guarantee that they won't make a mistake, get hurt, or even lose their lives the next time this happens.
