Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Resurrected Corpse
Tyron continued, "If the kingdom doesn't send any more people, the city of Cain won't last a few days, and there won't be much to eat in the city."
Taryn said, his eyes sweeping over the scruffy and thin residents sitting on the side of the street.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at the thin and almost only a skeleton left of the residents, and she faintly saw that there was a faint blue shadow on the bodies of these residents.
"Something is wrong with them." Nan Xue whispered in Xiao Zhimiao's ear.
Xiao Zhimiao: "You can see that?"
Nan Xue nodded, although her profession was an elemental mage, she was from the Nightshader camp, and her perception of the aura of death was much sharper than that of the other two camps.
As soon as she entered the city of Kane, she felt a faint aura of death, not only from these residents, but also from Taryn and the rest of the hundred knights walking on either side of the player.
But they looked like living people.
Xiao Zhimiao directly reached out and touched the only exposed face of a knight next to him, which was still warm.
The knight who was touched looked at Xiao Zhimiao a little inexplicably, Xiao Zhimiao smiled and said, "You are so good-looking, have you married a wife?"
The knight was slightly stunned, his face a little shy, "Not yet, but I'm sorry, I already have a girl I like, and I'll marry her when I return from Kane City."
Xiao Zhimiao: "That's a pity."
The knight smiled at Xiao Zhimiao and put on his helmet.
Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao with complicated eyes, "Why are you even flirting with copies?"
Here, Nan Xue also just touched the knights' faces to see if they were really alive, when she heard Xiao Zhimiao say, "Because the copy is not responsible."
After that, Xiao Zhimiao and Nan Xue glanced at each other and clapped their hands with a tacit understanding.
Sun Yuyue shook her head and said, "The two scumbags bumped into each other."
"Most of the houses in Cairn City are vacant, you can find an empty house to live in at will, it is recommended not to live too far, it is better to live near our station."
The knights lived in houses near the walls of Kane, and supplies and everything were concentrated in their hands.
One player asked, "What about the lord of this city?"
Tyron pointed to the top of his hand, "The lord of the city has been seriously ill for a long time, and he lives in the castle every day, and I have only seen him once."
With that, Tyron led the exhausted knights back to rest and let the players take care of themselves.
Xiao Zhimiao watched the players who were divided into several camps go to find houses to live in, so many players are still different guilds, and some have some grudges and interests in private, it is not realistic to gather them together to cooperate.
Xiao Zhimiao looked around the city of Kane, a medieval-like town, surrounded by high walls, the lord of the city lived in the highest castle, and the houses of the inhabitants were built on the castle.
From the outside, she saw that this Kane City was several times larger than Doll Town, and if she wanted to find clues to clear the customs from the city, the difficulty would surge.
"Let's go, let's find a place to live."
Nanxue said, leading them in front to find a place to live.
Xiao Zhimiao saw the players of the four Thorn Guilds walking towards them, so she took a few steps behind Nan Xue and them, put her finger to her lips, and made a silent gesture to them.
The four of them paused and followed Xiao Zhimiao slowly and quietly.
One of the girls, who looked to be in their twenties, walked up to Xiao Zhimiao and whispered, "Divine Master.......
Xiao Zhimiao: "Don't call me that."
"Yes, I'll call you your name outside the guild."
Xiao Zhimiao asked, "What's your name, the four of you from the Thorn Guild came in?"
Xiao Zhimiao saw that only these four were wearing the costumes of the Thorn Guild, and did not see Mu Yuan's figure.
"My name is Achill, God..... Miss Xiao, only the four of us have come in."
said that she wanted to call her name, but she still couldn't say it.
"Miss Xiao, our Thorn Guild is absolutely obedient to you and obeys your command
。」
Xiao Zhimiao watched Nanxue and them turn into an alley, stopped and said to the four of them, "You guys look at it, I don't have anything to tell you, get out alive with the copy."
Archill asked, "Miss Xiao, is this an order?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "You think so, right?"
"Then we obey your orders."
Xiao Zhimiao watched the four of them put their hands on their chests, hanging their heads and looking respectful at her, they really didn't know what kind of existence Secia was for them.
It stands to reason that they are also players, how can a person living in the modern era have such a sense of obedience? Moreover, the gods they believed in should be just a shadow to them.
Because she was Secia, and before that, Secia didn't exist for them.
Xiao Zhimiao checked the faith value of these four people one by one, and all of them were only ten percent, which was the same as her belief value, and with such a low belief value, it was difficult to pray to the gods in the dungeon.
Although Xiao Zhimiao still doesn't quite understand it, he also knows that the obedience brought about by this fanatical belief must be that this belief has some kind of embodied embodiment, which really exists and has a certain impact on them.
When she gets out of this dungeon, she will find an opportunity to ask Mu Yuan to learn about this guild and the source of their beliefs.
Nanxue and the others found a room not too far from the knights' residence, the room was quite spacious, with three rooms, just enough to accommodate the five of them.
When Xiao Zhimiao came in, he saw that the four players of the Thorn Guild had directly entered the room next to them.
Seems to have made up his mind to follow her.
Xiao Zhimiao chose a room at random, ready to sleep for a while to recuperate, but before she could lie down, she heard Sun Yuyue's exclamation outside.
She immediately walked out and saw Sun Yuyue coming out of the kitchen with her mouth and nose covered, and when she came out, she fanned the wind in front of her nose and said, "Smoke me to death!"
Xiao Zhimiao asked, "What's wrong?"
Xu Zhilan lay on the sofa and said lazily, "Dead man, what else can there be."
Xiao Zhimiao entered the kitchen and saw that the smell of corpses was blowing in his face, and an adult corpse was sitting on the edge of the stove with a smaller corpse in his hand, and he was still holding a salt shaker in his hand.
Xiao Zhimiao looked around the kitchen, the cabinets were all open, except for some dishes and other things, there was no food left, looking at the figures of these two corpses, it was estimated that they were starved to death.
When Nan Xue came in, she immediately covered her nose, lit a fire in her hand and threw it at the two corpses, ready to cremate them in place.
As soon as the fire was thrown on the two corpses, Xiao Zhimiao heard a crisp sound, like the crisp sound of a dry wood breaking.
It was the sound that came from the two corpses, Xiao Zhimiao and Nan Xue both stared at the two corpses and stepped back.
In the next second, both corpses opened their eyes and rushed towards them.
Xiao Zhimiao's heart jumped suddenly, and he kicked them back.
The corpse knocked over the bowl on the stove, making a clanging sound, and Xu Zhilan and the others outside immediately became alert.
When the corpses pounced again, Nan Xue used the ice element skill to freeze the two corpses, and the corpses fell to the ground and shattered to the ground.
Xu Zhilan and the three ran in and asked, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Zhimiao: "Those two corpses were alive just now."
"Alive?"
Sun Yuyue was surprised: "Then this city is so big, there won't be many living dead."
Xiao Zhimiao was slightly stunned when she heard the word "living dead".
This city of Kane is so big, according to Tyron, they have been guarding this city for months, surrounded by those things, they can't get out, there is no way to find supplies, so they see that many of the residents in the street are hungry and skinny, and the number of people who died of starvation is estimated to be countless.
If these dead people can be resurrected and attack people, then why are the inhabitants and knights okay?
And Taryn didn't make peace
They mentioned this key piece of information, and he seems to be in good shape at the moment, standing in line with the player.
Xu Zhilan said that in the copy, there is no absolutely good, but it is not revealed for the time being.
Xiao Zhimiao has reservations about this, if Taryn is good, and does not mention to the player that corpses will resurrect and attack people, then there is a possibility, corpses only attack living people.
And the inhabitants and knights may have been in a state of death, but they themselves did not know.
After discovering the remains in this room, Xiao Zhimiao and the others checked the inside and out of the house again, and only after making sure that there was no potential danger did they go back to their rooms to rest.
It's night, they're going to wait until dawn and then go out to have a look, just after entering the dungeon, players choose to wait and see, and according to the experience of old players' dungeons, the probability of accidents at night is too great, they won't give it in vain at the beginning.
Xiao Zhimiao went out to take a look, the whole street was empty, the surroundings were so quiet that even the slightest wind could be heard, there was basically no light in the entire Kane City, only some lights were lit near the city gate, and some ghosts appeared and disappeared from the dim light, faintly looking at it was terrifying, this dull atmosphere was even more eerie than the puppet town.
Xiao Zhimiao glanced twice and was about to enter the house, but when she turned around, she saw Aman also coming out.
"Where?" Xiao Zhimiao called Aman to stop.
Aman choked and said, "As far as you can come out and see, I can't?"
Tsk, this Ah Man is really angry, and there are a lot of thorns on his body, but it doesn't matter, she likes to pull out thorns for people like her the most.
It just so happened that she needed someone to go ahead and see what would appear.
Xiao Zhimiao leaned against the wall, looking casual.
Ah Man saw that Xiao Zhimiao did not stop her, and walked out with his chin raised, in the past, a group of people from the Shenwu Bureau took her to the next copy like a nanny, and she had never seen what the high-level book was like, full of curiosity.
There were no lights in this alley, only the wall lamp hanging in front of their house was still on, and after Aman stepped out of the range of the lights of the house where they were, he took out a lighting prop to illuminate the surroundings as bright as day.
After taking two steps, the prop in her hand suddenly disappeared, Aman paused, and was about to take out a prop again, when a dark blue ghost crawled out of the ground and grabbed her foot.
