Chapter 33: Ancient Sins
Thump!
Immediately after, the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard behind Lindsay.
He turned his head to see that the dead body, which was still chasing after him just now, had fallen to the ground.
After the red glow, it lost all mobility.
Now lying on the ground, it is as if he has returned to the frozen and stiff state of the corpse, and has not been resuscitated at all.
Myself......
Safe?
It's support from the town!
Realizing this, Lindsay, who was standing on one foot, sat on the ground with her buttocks.
"Whew-"
He gasped for air.
Then Lindsay thought about it, put on her shoes first, and then looked ahead.
At this moment, Torch and an old nun in black monk's robes appeared behind the interval in the woods.
The old nun's dark, cloudy eyes stared ahead.
The cold winter wind blew the corners of her dark clothes, and she walked slowly towards Lindsay like a moving cloud, as if everything had been at the door of the church a few days ago, extending a dry hand.
"Lindsay, can you stand up?"
"Mama......"
The object of Torch's request for help is Lindsay's godmother!
The red light that came in an instant just now was also this nun of the School of Death, who used her own skills to defeat the resurrected corpse again.
The moment I saw the red moon, I felt a sense of peace of mind.
Lindsay's tense heart finally relaxed, he nodded, put his hands on the ground, and stood up again.
Red Moon looked at Lindsay, naturally seeing the wound on his chest, and then asked slowly and seriously:
"You've been hurt by this living corpse?"
Lindsey shook her head:
"No, the corpse doesn't look right, and I try not to get hit by it. As for this wound, it was fallen when I encountered the ice badger before, and the life essence is resisting the erosion of the cold, so it is not a big problem for the time being. ”
Red Moon has no obvious gestures to express her feelings.
She only put her hand on the top of Lindsay's head, sensed the state of her godson, and confirmed the normal operation of the life essence, and she finally let go.
Lindsey is fine.
The essence of life is closely related to the life of the user.
Examining the physical condition of the awakened using this essentia can lead to a lot of information from this aspect alone.
Confirming Lindsay's state, Red Moon's tone was completely calm:
"That's good, let's go back and heal our injuries first."
The torch on the side also hurriedly stepped forward, his eyes a little guilty:
"Brother Lindsay, I ran away by myself just now......"
Lindsey directly stopped the torch's self-blame:
"That's what I told you to ask for help, not an escape!"
"And you see, now we're both saved, no one is hurt—that's the best outcome, and it's up to me to survive, but it's all thanks to your help...... Well. ”
Lindsey said too much in one breath.
The wound from the ice pick in his chest made him want to cough, but he didn't want the two people around him to worry.
I endured it, and finally I got up.
"Brother Lindsay?" Torch took Lindsay's arm with some concern.
"It's fine." Lindsay smiled and shook his head, in order to show that he had no problem, he took the initiative to ask Hongyue, "Mama, what's the matter with this corpse?" ”
"When I watched it before, it didn't react at all, but it suddenly moved, and it was very difficult to deal with."
Red Moon replied in a calm tone:
"That's the dead who have been disturbed by ancient sins."
"The original purpose of the death school was to deal with this kind of problem."
Lindsay asked curiously:
"Ancient sins? What is that? ”
Red Moon explained in her usual tone:
"It was so old that it was hard to go back to history, and only fragments of legend still exist in the world today. According to the Cosedon Scrolls, there was a shadow that lurked in the shadows, threatening all good in the world. ”
"The righteous forces of the former world have gathered to resist them and gain victory. But a special effect also spread from that time, and from then on the dead could not easily sleep. ”
“……”
Lindsey could understand the concept of resurrection of the undead, after all, there was such a thing in the games he played in his previous life.
But he is now in a living world.
From the analysis of the information given by the red moon, it means that in this world, when people die, they are dead, and there will be no situation of deceiving corpses or resurrecting the undead.
But because of a battle between good and evil.
The rules of resurrection of the dead began to interfere with reality, allowing the dead in countless worlds to be resuscitated......
What level of power does this power involve?
"Lindsay? Torch! ”
Lindsey pondered because of the new news.
Dan's voice rang out from the forest.
The huntress figure weaved through the trees at such a speed that it was almost impossible to see her movements.
A few minutes ago, she pursued all the way and killed the demonic beasts lurking in the forest.
When he returned, he saw the bodies of three dead ice badgers, as well as the vanished Lindsay and Torch, and his heart almost hung in his throat.
At this moment, he chased after him with a nervous face.
Seeing the two children and Sister Red Moon standing here, she first breathed a sigh of relief and admitted her mistake before explaining her actions:
"I'm sorry, but this is my rereliction of duty."
"Just now in the forest, I found an unusually strong ice badger, which should be the leader of this group of ice badgers nearby......"
Dan's voice stopped abruptly.
She saw the corpse that shouldn't have been lying here, and after a moment of astonishment, Dan reacted suddenly:
"Wait?! Is this a living corpse? ”
Hongyue nodded and gave Dan an affirmative reply:
"That's right, it's a living corpse."
Dan's eyes widened, and his tone was completely incomprehensible:
"How is this possible? Rez has been dead for at least three days, how could the corpse of an ordinary person who has not mastered essentia suddenly be activated after such a long time? ”
Red Moon analyzed in a flat tone:
"Maybe it's the heavy snow and low temperature that keep his body in shape, and it may not be an accident to encounter essentia stimulation at this time."
Dan thought of the ice pick scars on Rez's corpse, and the two young Awoken she had left behind at the scene.
This really explains what is happening in front of you.
But it also means that she left her two children with a dangerous living corpse!
Dan clenched his fists and fixed his gaze on the red moon:
"It's all my responsibility."
Red Moon did not answer the huntress positively, but gave an unbiased answer in her flat tone:
"I'm just proposing a possibility, not describing the truth."
“……”
The two Awoken discuss the issue of the living corpse.
In normal times, Lindsay would definitely listen carefully to their discussions and take all kinds of knowledge to heart.
But now he's distracted.
Because just after the huntress appeared and joined them.
A mechanical cue for a gamer sounded in Lindsay's mind, and twice!
