Chapter 150: On the Gallows
The crowd that was about to leave turned their heads almost simultaneously to look at the owner of the voice. Everyone www.biquge.info in the pen "Fun" Pavilion heard the words, as if they came from the throat of the Grim Reaper, dull and eerie, and creepy.
Among them, Allen was particularly frightened.
He thought back to the group of fellows he had just tortured, their arms and heads were as cold as corpses, and when he associated those words with everything, a terrible thought drilled into his head, and he felt a chill down his spine.
Kenny walked over first, staring at the corpses floating on the torture rack. The creatures that were swinging back and forth seemed to have their bones removed, their arms hanging from their backs, and although their eyes were open, there was no sign of life.
Sersi walked over to Kenny and stared intently at the top of the gallows. He was sure that the men had taken their breath, and that the gallows in front of them had created countless souls, and no one had ever been able to survive on them.
Aiden took the Sombra longbow from his back and rested his right hand on the Black Feather Arrow, standing in front of Kenny, his eyes wandering over the corpse and the enemies that might appear around him.
"The Dead Do Not Die....."
The cries of grievance reached everyone's ears again. This time, they heard it more clearly, and the sound did indeed come from one of the corpses.
Alan confirmed that the person who spoke was the young man who had just spoken, but the man did not open his mouth, and the voice seemed to come from his chest.
The guards at the gallows raised their weapons, and nearly twenty guards quickly gathered in front of Kenny.
The already scattered crowd in the square gradually gathered again, and the guards who enforced the order re-erected the human wall.
The crowd looked at the gallows in the middle of the square, where the guards had protected Kenny behind him, and no one knew what was going on, including the man with his face hidden in his hood.
"The Dead Do Not Die....."
Another shout rang out, louder than it had just been.
"You two, go up and have a look!" Sersi commanded, pushing two of the guards.
The two guards turned their heads to look at Sercy, and they swallowed with difficulty, as if begging for Sersi to let them go.
"Rubbish!" Sersi angrily slapped one of them, then reached out to dodge the spear in the man's hand and walked up himself.
"Wait!" Alan grabbed Sercy's shoulder, and drew his black steel sword, "I'm with you." ”
"Stay here!" Selsey shook the hand off his shoulder, "I'll go alone, you protect the lord, if something happens, don't go back to Morwin Castle, evacuate to the west of the city!"
"Aiden!" Allen turned his head to look at the golden retriever, "protect Kenny, if something happens, don't walk down the alley where you came, and evacuate to the chaotic crowd!" he said and followed Sersi to the gallows not far away.
The two cautiously overlapped their steps, the noisy chatter was a little harsh, the stallions were still neighing, but they had stopped their hooves, the rope of execution was straightened, and the cold wind made the five corpses swing on the gallows.
"Damn! I'll fucking let you stay there!" Selsi cursed angrily.
"And then?" Alan turned his head, "Watching you die alone?" he raised the black steel sword in his hand, "I'm sorry, I can't." ”
"You madman!" said Sersi, swapping his spear for a single wield, and pulling the taut noose with one free hand.
"Stand back!" Alan reached out and pushed Sersi behind him.
"What do you want to do?"
Eren glanced at the spear in Sersi's hand. "Cut the rope. He said, "I want to see how the dead don't die!"
Sersi nodded.
The two took a few steps back, and with the advantage of their spears, a few steps away from the gallows, Selsey pressed the blades of the spears to the straightened rope.
At the same time, Alan glanced at Aiden not far away, and the golden retriever nodded tacitly, and the arrow was already aimed at the location where the corpse landed.
'Whoosh-'
As Selsey cut the rope, a corpse at the top of the gallows fell to the ground, and before it could hit the ground, the Black Feather Arrow pierced its head with unmistakable precision.
The corpse slammed to the ground, lying in an extremely twisted position on the cold bluestone foundation, without moving.
Eren felt his heart beat to his throat, and he tightened his grip on the black steel sword, leaning in before Sersi could move.
As the distance approached, he could already see the bloody face. The creature's face was so shattered that it was no longer possible to recognize with the naked eye what it looked like it was before it landed, and its left arm seemed to have been boneless, and in a short period of time, it was twisted into three sections, overlapping and lying flat on its chest.
Sersi followed, raising his spear flat, the tip of which was aimed at the grotesque corpse on the ground. He had always believed that no one could survive on the gallows for so long, and that all that lay on the ground was a cold corpse until the voice came again.
"The dead do not die!"
This time, the murmur of the chest turned into a shrill cry, and the sound spread almost throughout the square, and the crowd followed the commotion, and the noisy chatter turned into a cry for help.
Sersi felt a tremendous force knock him out, and then he slammed into the bluestone floor, his head thudding.
He tried to open his eyes, and was horrified to find that the remaining four corpses on the gallows were gone, he turned his head, only to see Alan holding his left shoulder, and retreating two or three positions in succession, he looked in the direction of Allen's sword, and greater fear swept through his body.
It was a bloody face, not even a human face, and the corpse that had just landed on the ground stood up, letting Allen's black steel sword against its jaw, unafraid.
Suddenly, Sersi felt an arrow fly overhead, followed by Kenny's shout.
"Holy, don't stay there!"
Sersi turned his head, and a spear pierced the face, and the blood did not come as promised, and the owner of the face did not fall.
He quickly scrambled to his feet, the spear-wielding guard froze in place, and he let go of the iron weapon in his hand, his eyes almost popping out.
Sersi pushed him away violently, but after all, he was still a step too late, and the corpse that had been pierced through the head by arrows and spear blades at the same time actually brought alive the guards behind him with his bare hands, and Sersi instantly became a bloody man.
At the same time, Alan dodged the corpse's blow sideways, and as soon as he turned around, the corpse pounced again, his black steel sword crossed his chest, his bloody face close at hand, staring at him with those deep-seated eyes. He felt hairy all over his body, and at the same time felt the power coming from his hand, which was not the power that ordinary people should have.
Another guard fell, and Kenny pushed Aiden, who was drawing his bow, and drew his black steel sword to cut off the arm that had just struck the corpse, and the pale arm fell to the ground, curled up and swayed like the tail of a python.
The corpse that had lost its arm did not stop, it seemed to have lost its sense of pain. Kenny gasped, barely had time to panic, when the living dead in front of him pounced again, dodging sideways, and as he raised his black steel sword to slash off the living dead's head, a living dead with a spear rushed at him.
'Bang-'
A dazzling white light temporarily robs Kenny's vision.
When he opened his eyes again, in a blur, he saw that the living dead man with a spear had just landed in the distance in a parabola, and there was no movement. (To be continued.) )
