Chapter 723: The Destroyed Fishing Village

Listening to what the returning Knights had to say, Kane walked over.

He immediately saluted when he saw Kane coming.

"Your Majesty."

"Tell me about what you've seen, and what kind of danger is there?"

The knight nodded.

"Our team was rushing forward and started scouting, and about 3 kilometers from here, we found a fishing village."

"But when we got closer to the fishing village, we smelled a very strong smell of corpses. When I got closer, I found that the entire fishing village had been destroyed long ago, and only many bones were still lying around. ”

"When our team entered the fishing village, the bones of these villagers moved, and these corpses had become undead, and because of our entry, they were breathed by the living beings, so they began to attack."

"For intelligence gathering reasons, we only killed a few undead and then exited the village and conducted reconnaissance around it."

After listening to the knight's report, Kane nodded.

Then he thought about it and came to Claire.

"Claire, let's go together."

After all, Claire has the rules of death and is more experienced in how to manipulate the undead.

Maybe she'll be able to spot some clues.

Hearing Kane's words, Claire nodded.

Rombe, who was next to him, asked, "Is there any situation?" Do you need us to be together? ”

"There are some cases, but they are not serious, mainly to investigate some clues."

Upon hearing Kane's words, Lombe nodded and said no more.

If it was just to scout for clues or something, then there would be no need for him to go, it was not where he should stay or what he should do.

Unless it's a fight, he'd better stay in the camp and rest.

The others looked at Kane and they left without asking too much, after all, Kane wouldn't be polite if he needed help.

Kane and Claire then followed the members of the Order towards the fishing village he had mentioned.

Walking out of the beach, you will find a plain with only a few low shrubs and plants on the ground, and scattered trees standing around.

A small road stretches from the seaside all the way out, and this is supposed to be the road that leads to the fishing village.

Kane and the others had not been long after they had followed the Lantern Knight before they smelled a faint stench in the distance.

Sure enough, it was a smell of rotting corpses.

Claire looked around and said as she walked, "I can indeed sense the faint element of death in the air. ”

After walking for a while, the stench of corpses in the air became heavier and heavier, and a small village could be seen in the distance.

Appears in the cold moonlight of the moon.

The Lantern Knights scattered around the village were also seen, keeping a certain distance from the village and not alarming the undead inside.

After seeing Kane and their arrival, the lantern knights around them nodded in greeting.

Abby then walked up, and it was he who led the team to scout.

Looking at Abby Kane, he asked directly, "What is the situation in this fishing village?" ”

Abby shook her head: "There is not a single person alive, and judging by some traces of burns and fighting, this fishing village has been destroyed for almost a month. ”

However, they only reconnoitred the situation during the battle in the village and withdrew.

After all, Abby knew about Claire's abilities and wondered if she could get some information.

Otherwise, these are the lowest-level undead who may not even be as good as ordinary people, and they can easily be dealt with by them.

After listening to Abby's brief debriefing, Kane nodded.

"In that case, let's go in together."

With that, Abby gathered all the knights around her.

A total of 10 lantern knights followed Kane into the village.

Before entering the village, he saw two decomposing corpses wandering around the door.

They still have the same shabby clothes that these fishermen once wore.

It had been scratched to tatters, and it was barely visible in its original appearance, except for a few scraps of cloth still stuck to its body.

The liquid and slime from the corpse's body stuck to the strips of cloth, preventing some of the torn clothing from falling to the ground.

The two undead must have just been alarmed by Abby, but they didn't find their target, so they wandered around in disorder.

It is only after a period of time that they do not feel the breath of life again that they will find a dark place to continue their sleep.

Looking at the two undead, Kane turned his head and shook his head at Clea.

Claire nodded.

Then a burning black and white flame appeared in her hand, and she waved it with Cleya.

The black and white flames split into two streams and flew out like two sharp arrows.

Instantly shot the two corpses.

The black and white flames that burned, quickly enveloped and incinerated it.

After a while, the whole body was dry and solid.

The undead who decomposed the corpse in the previous two sentences are just the lowest level of walking corpses.

Its combat power is almost on par with the most common skeletons.

The reason why they are not the lowest combat power is because although their attacks are slow, they can easily cause toxin infection to the enemy once they hit.

Ordinary skeletons are fragile, but at least they move normally.

The two are half a catty and eight taels.

After being incinerated by Claire's black and white flames, she rose directly from the walking corpse to a higher level of zombie.

It's like an ordinary skeleton has been upgraded to a variety of class skeletons.

Characters such as skeleton archers, skeleton soldiers, etc.

Nothing has changed in essence, but in fact it has improved a lot.

At least it's not much different from the strength they show.

The black and white flames burning on their bodies also made their strength leap to another dimension, but it also kept them under the control of Claire.

Claire closed her eyes and began to feel the fragmented memories of the two undead.

The reason why the undead become undead is that some of the fragments of their souls are left in the corpse before their souls are completely dissipated after death.

After some magical means, the corpse moved and turned into an undead.

This is the origin of the lowest level and most basic undead.

Normal necromancers, as well as those with the same abilities as necromancers, can detect their soul fragments by controlling the undead.

Claire looked at the fragments for a moment and then opened her eyes.

"Very little information has been revealed, and the status of these two walking corpses before their deaths may be nothing more than ordinary fishermen.

All I know is that I don't know why the undead broke out in the village in the middle of the night, and they woke up to the noise outside and were killed. ”

It really is meaningless information.

"Go ahead."

With that, they went straight into the village.

It's like crossing an infrared cordon.

Q: Just now, the cross-border village is like a sound alarm.

Throughout the village, in all shady places, the lying corpses crawled up.

They all converged towards Kane's place.

There was some meaningless roar from his mouth, and he stretched out his hands and raised them into claws, and staggered over.

Faced with such a situation, Kane did not panic at all.

The only thing that threatens them in this village is probably the thick smell of rot in the air.

It had a big impact on Kane's spirit, and it was really too strong.

And Kane can also feel the strength of these walking corpses, maybe they have just reached the level of bronze strength, after all, before they became undead, they were just ordinary people.

The strength that can be rated as bronze is very reluctant, but it is just because they still have some death elements left in their bodies, which make them move.

The combat effectiveness of these undead may still be inferior to that of ordinary people.

Of course, if these ordinary people don't have fear in their hearts, they can still deal with one or two under normal circumstances.

But fear is always the most dangerous problem.

This time, instead of a black and white flame burning in Claire's hand, her front horse's hooves burned with black and white flames.

Claire then got up and stomped on the ground.

The flames rippled from the ground and spread in a direction.

There was no feeling as he passed under the feet of the Knights of the Lantern and Kane.

However, once it touched the walking corpses, it quickly spread to its body, and it only took a few seconds for it to burst into flames.

After wrapping its whole body, it only took a second or two for the walking corpses to transform into withered zombies, just like the first two.

Then there are all sorts of memory fragments, waiting for Claire to consult and extract useful information from them.

Too many memory fragments made Claire close her eyes, and she needed to flip through them carefully.

And the zombies burning with black and white flames in the entire village couldn't stand in an instant, and they all fell under Claire's control.

Looking at the number of these undead, Kane counted.

Finally, I took a rough look at the size of the entire fishing village.

The number of people is very noticeably smaller.

These walking dead are probably just a part of the once population of this fishing village.

Not even half.

That's when Claire opened her eyes.

She already knew the whole story of how the fishing village had come to an end.

"About a month ago, one night, a relatively powerful undead creature passed by this fishing village and turned several of its drunks into undead."

"Then the drunks began to attack the entire village indiscriminately, and some of the dead bodies got up again and became walking corpses."

"It took less than a night for the entire village to be destroyed.

However, not all of the people inside died, and more than half of them fled under the escort of some young adults. ”

After listening to Clea's words, Kane nodded.

In other words, the reason why this fishing village is in such a situation is deliberate.

There is not much to scout in this village.

With a wave of her hand, Claire burned all the undead, followed by a cloud of black and white flames thrown into the remaining village houses.

The whole village was quickly engulfed in flames.

Of course, the flames used here are normal flames, and Claire, who has rules related to combustion, is perfectly fine with normal flames.

Ok, nothing is left out of the post.

Then the group returned to the beach area.

By this time all the members of the Order had returned.

No danger was found.

Kane sat by the fire and pondered.

Is it a coincidence?

As soon as I landed, I encountered an event related to the undead.
