In the snow-covered dense forest, Lindsay ran wild.

And behind him, the dead corpse that was chasing after him naturally did not let go of the possibility of the prey in front of him, and shortened the distance between him and Lindsay at all times.

The direction of the two of them was directed towards the border town.

But Lindsay had never set foot in it, and she didn't know where the hunter had set the trap, so it was impossible to find other outside support to help her now.

Run, run at speed!

This is the first element of Lindsay's life.

But for this most important attribute, he is still a little slower than the adult corpse behind him. The result of continuing to maintain the status quo to the end is only to be caught up by the other party when he exhausts his physical strength, and then kills.

While you still have a little stamina.

No matter how unlikely it may seem or how unreliable it may seem, you have to give it a try!

"Tsk-"

In order to survive.

Lindsay gritted her teeth and turned around and shot an arrow at the corpse.

Reaching the (mastery) level of archery, it is really better than when (beginner) is more than a star and a half. The arrow not only hit the target accurately, but even hit the head of the dead body.

But the result is the same as before.

The hard body gives this resurrected monster an extremely strong defense. Arrows are also ineffective on bodies that cannot be penetrated with a knife at close range.

The arrow merely grazed its skin, and then bounced feebly to the ground, as if mocking Lin's futile struggle.

Bows and arrows don't do anything at all!

“……”

Lindsay's eyes sank.

He didn't complain anything, but threw his bow and arrows at the dead body along with the arrows behind his back. On the one hand, try to slow down the other party, and at the same time, reduce your own weight.

"Roar!"

The corpse reacted quickly, swinging its hand and throwing its bow and arrow flying.

And then - smack!

Lindsay's thick coat flew over as well, and shrouded the corpse's face as if it were a large pocket.

Tear and pull!

Immediately afterward, the corpse reacted exactly the same as when it shot the bow and arrow. It flailed its hands and soon tore Lindsay's coat to shreds, hanging it on its chest.

It was this short resistance that Lindsay bought herself a few more seconds.

He distanced himself from the corpse behind him again, and used the rare opportunity to reflect on what he had just experienced.

The speed is faster than yourself, you can't defeat it by force, and you can't escape from the tree.

What else can be done?

Can you escape from the never-ending pursuit of this corpse?

As she ran, Lindsay kept looking back at the state of the dead bodies behind her.

At this time, hanging on the chest of the dead body, the tattered clothes that had just belonged to Lindsay's own, gave him a hint.

Lindsay suddenly remembered the corpse's action when he shot the bow and arrow.

and at the beginning of the encounter, the corpse will move the target of the attack on the torch and itself several times.

On top of that, Lindsay made eye contact with the dead body twice.

He could clearly see the state of this guy's eyes, which were by no means a pair of eyes that could be used by a living person.

A bold idea began to brew in Lindsay's mind.

The next moment, he stopped abruptly.

This is not to say that Lindsey is going to give up resistance.

Because at the same time as he stopped moving, he also pulled out his talisman knife and threw it towards an oak tree dozens of meters away.

Bang!

The trunk of the tree is hit with a knife, making a noise.

Lindsay stood motionless, even the sound of her breathing was kept to a minimum.

The result was the same as he thought.

The corpse really didn't care about Lindsay, who was standing there and didn't move, but turned his head and threw himself at the tree where the knife hit!

"Roar!"

The corpse slammed headlong into the tree, then slashed in front of it.

It wasn't until a good tree was scratched and bruised that it made sure it didn't have any living animals in front of it. So, the corpse turned its head again, and moved somewhat slowly in the direction of Lindsay.

Losing the target it prepares to check the previous target location.

But the attitude when approaching is not as sure as it was at the beginning of the chase.

"Sure enough, this monster attacked in the direction of the sound......"

I watched this scene in its entirety.

Lindsey finally figured out the rules for the other party to attack.

But he didn't let up.

Because as long as he moves, the dead corpse will definitely continue to pursue.

When the time comes, he will still be unable to escape death.

If...... It's good that some inexplicable wildlife comes out.

Even if there is another demonic beast, as long as it can lure away the dead corpse in front of her, Lindsay would rather be shot a few ice picks, after all, it can at least be dealt with!

Unfortunately, this is not realistic.

Lindsay had no choice but to start a new chase before the corpse approached her.

Wait until the stamina bar is about to run out again.

In the roar of the corpses, he threw his cassa kettle out as well, repeating the previous action of luring the enemy.

Sure enough.

For a monster that only relies on hearing to act, this trick still works.

Once again, Lindsay distanced herself from the monster, and at the same time bought the opportunity to regain her strength.

This has been repeated several times, and the solution has always worked well.

But after using it a few times, Lindsay will inevitably fall into a dilemma again.

The reason is simple - he has nothing to throw away.

In other seasons, you can pick up a stone in the forest and throw it to hinder the pursuit of the dead.

But on this snow-covered ground.

I'm afraid that just the process of digging through the snow and looking for rocks will make this dead body chase him and knock him to the ground.

“……”

"It's just the last distance."

Lindsay's eyes tightened, staring ahead, and through the snow cover of the forest, he could already make out the tall buildings in the town.

One step away from being rescued!

You know, this is the woods north of the town.

Further on, there is Anrui's lord's manor, and the glade on the edge of the forest where the guards and the Awakened practice daily.

If you can get there, you will be rescued immediately!

Lindsay gritted her teeth and continued to run.

Trees slid past him behind him, and the sound of stomping on the snow was almost the limit.

But behind Lindsay, the sound of the dead chasing was getting closer.

The front is life, and the second is death.

Sandwiched between two emotions, Lindsay really couldn't think of any other way.

He glanced at his attribute panel, and his stamina bar was rapidly decreasing in the rush, and he was about to bottom out!

"There it is!"

Lindsay had a sudden idea.

He immediately jumped up on one foot and took off his other shoe, ready to use it to buy himself one last chance to escape.

Brush –

At this moment, a red light flashed in front of him.

Lindsay, who had just held the shoe in his hand, didn't have time to react at all.

But the target of this red light was not him, but bypassed Lindsay's body as if he had intelligence.

It weaves through dense woods, over towering canopies, over snow falling from its branches, and pushing through the gentle breeze of the woods.

As if time had come, and as if it had been here, it was just a blink of an eye, flashing in the quiet winter day.

Watch the red light flash away.

Lindsay inexplicably thought of one word – death.
