Chapter 155: Cannon Fodder

Although the corpse monster is a humanoid creature, no one will equate it with a human race, but only a humanoid monster.

The mummy is also in the form of a dried corpse, but the overall appearance has not changed much, except that it is wrapped in a layer of cloth or bandage, and at most it is regarded as a dead thing, a feminine thing, not a monster.

The ghouls are monsters at first glance, with height and long claws, and each ghould's face is colorful as if it were wearing an inverted triangle wizard or shaman's mask.

However, this is not a mask, but what they really look like, yes, the face of the corpse monster is an inverted triangle, and although it has facial features, it does not make people look like they are human.

And the strangest thing about the corpse monsters is that each corpse monster looks about the same, no matter what species it is, as long as it is cultivated, it will become 3 meters tall, thin and tough, claws longer than the knees, and a triangular face.

The feet are quite normal, retaining the characteristics of the original species, originally if it was a human it was the feet of giants, and if it was originally a cow, it was an enlarged and elongated cow's hooves.

Therefore, to identify the origin of this corpse monster, it is more obvious by looking at the feet, and the other parts of the body are similar, except for the corpse monster group itself, no one can see it.

The mummy and Fan Wu stopped in the center of the corpse territory with a string of clawed pit viper puppets, and 10 minutes ago, the mummy had already made a series of strange sounds with a unique frequency to communicate with the corpses here, meaning that they wanted to meet the corpse leader here.

Soon, a corpse monster with a height of nearly 4 meters appeared, there were not a large number of skeleton minions around him, only a giant wolf that had not completely turned into a skeleton followed, looking at his feet, it should have been a wolf before cultivation.

Came up to the mummy, used the strange pronunciation that the mummy had just pronounced to communicate with him, and after a few minutes, turned around and led the mummy and his party a little to the left.

Fan Wu also heard the voices outside in the dark space inside the cloth, but he didn't know why, he didn't know what the two of them were talking about.

In fact, the purpose of the mummy is very simple, that is, he hopes that the corpse monster clan can help block the clawed pit viper team chasing after him, so that he can pass smoothly, and also ask the corpse monster for the exact route to the destination.

It's just that the other party only promised to guide the correct route, and didn't agree to help, so he turned around and walked forward with the mummy and Fan Wu, which meant that they should leave quickly, not wanting to get into trouble.

Although the mummy did not achieve the purpose of starting the fire, there is no way to say anything, the previous friendship does not mean that it can still be effective now, and the few corpse monsters I knew back then still don't know if they are still here.

But even if you are here, there is no reason why people have to help you, so the mummy did not continue to talk nonsense, and followed the corpse monster with the people behind him.

After just walking for a while, I realized that something was wrong, how could it look like a straight route, and I returned to the territory of the clawed pit viper as I walked?

The most developed sense of smell is the mummy, and the way to distinguish the territory is by smelling, as you go deeper into the territory of the corpse monster, the original snake smell has disappeared from the sense of smell, and all you smell is the smell of corpses.

But after following the corpse monster for a while, I actually noticed a faint fishy smell again, mixed with some snake smell in the thick smell of corpses.

The mummy immediately stopped, and quickly distanced himself from the corpse in front of him, leaving in the opposite direction to him.

The corpse monster didn't know that the mummy had discovered the anomaly, and when he saw the team behind him moving away from him, he muttered a question, to the effect that he didn't continue to follow him or something.

The mummy didn't reply at all, and flew away at high speed with the puppets behind him, although he often slept and cultivated for a long time, but it didn't mean that he was a stupid person, and he was no stranger to all kinds of methods in the world.

There is nothing unacceptable to the corpse monster's approach, and it is not that he is afraid of the other party or anything, but it is just to avoid being attacked by the enemy on his back and affecting the things that follow, so he has to find a way to leave as soon as possible, and he doesn't want to fight a meaningless battle.

Because winning or losing will definitely consume a lot of energy, and the destination is getting closer and closer, there is no need to waste time here.

Although he wasn't sure if it was the corpse monster that had a problem, or he didn't know it, it was purely a trap for the clawed pit viper, it didn't matter, the most important thing at the moment was to protect Fan Wu from here.

Seeing that the mummy did not answer his question, the corpse monster did not speak again, and immediately followed closely behind the mummy team, and did not overtake, but began to summon the skeletons buried in the ground with a spell.

After chasing for miles, dozens of wolf-shaped skeletons were followed by the mummified procession, each with gray bones and eyes glowing green.

It wasn't the eyeballs that I could see clearly, but a little green flame in their eye sockets, and almost the entire head of the wolf skeleton was shrouded in green light under the reflection of the flames, which looked a little strange from a distance.

But the mummy himself is a dry corpse, of course he doesn't feel anything about this, he just feels that it is a bit troublesome for so many skeletons to follow behind, so he commanded about half, and a dozen or so clawed pit viper puppets were slightly behind to intercept the wolf skeletons following behind, and he himself took Fan Wu and the remaining dozen puppets to accelerate again and wanted to leave behind the pursuers.

The clawed pit viper, which has been made into a puppet, no longer has the ability to scream, but its physical attack ability is perfectly preserved, and it will directly hit the wolf skeleton head-on.

The Claw Viper's attack combines the characteristics of Rapid Assault and Piercing, first rushing in front of the skeleton with explosive speed, and then stabbing the skeleton in the eye with the spikes on the snake's tail behind him.

Normally, this kind of sudden acceleration is easy to achieve, but since the corpse monsters have fought with the claw pit vipers countless times and are already very familiar with their characteristics, there are only a handful of skeletons that have actually been hit by this move.

After a dozen clawed pit vipers assaulted, only two skeletons were knocked off their skulls with a single blow, and without the skulls, the entire skeleton lost its soul, so the wolf bones all over the body were scattered all over the ground, and the corpse monster needed to be re-summoned to stand up and fight again.

With the exception of these two unlucky ghosts, the other wolf skeletons successfully avoided the rapid onslaught of the clawed pit viper mummy, and began to bite and start to fight back.

It's just that the battle is on both sides, and the corpse monster is familiar with the fighting style of the clawed pit viper, and in turn, the skeleton's combat tricks have long been figured out by the other party.

Most of the summoned skeletons are also based on physical attacks, but their strength is basically a low-claw pit viper, and if there is no corpse monster as the main attack, there is no absolute advantage in numbers, so they basically can't resist the attack of the clawed pit viper.

Although the Clawed Pit Viper lost its most powerful screaming ability after being mummified, its physical attack ability is stronger, as its body's defenses are more powerful than when it was alive.

In the past, when fighting with skeletons, you could still be injured by sneak attacks, but now there is a layer of cloth on the outside, as long as the energy is not exhausted, it can almost completely resist the claw attack of the wolf skeleton.

The point is that clawed pit vipers have claws in addition to tail attacks, and they are longer and sharper than wolf claws.

Usually they are scratched by a wolf skeleton a few times just to tear off a few strips of cloth, and they can recover quickly, but their claws can scratch a few bones of the wolf skeleton on the opposite side, and if they just grab the head, or grasp the joint position of the leg, they can abolish the opponent at once.

Therefore, not long after the head-on encounter between the two sides began, they had already killed all the wolf skeletons that caught up, but when they encountered corpse monsters, they completely took turns in feng shui.

All the clawed pit viper's attacks hit the corpse monster like itching, leaving not much scratches at all, and then it will be knocked to the ground by the corpse's claws, and all the strips of cloth where it was caught are shattered, revealing the thin body underneath.

Although they will not be killed with a single claw, they can't stop the advance of the corpse monster at all, and after slapping all the claw pit viper mummies away with a few hands and feet, the corpse monster continues to move forward, while gathering the wolf skeleton on the ground again to block behind him, and then he walks away.

By the time the sharp-clawed pit vipers that were slapped away by him got up, there were already more than a dozen wolf skeletons standing on the scene again, and the corpse monster had already left a distance, and there were still wolf skeletons appearing behind him, which soon completely blocked the clawed pit viper mummies behind him.

The wolf skeleton's attack power is not strong enough for the claw pit viper, but as long as there are enough of them, they can still consume the dozen or so puppets to death.

The main reason is that the energy of the clawed pit viper puppets is limited, and they cannot be replenished if they are too far away from the mummy, but they are originally cannon fodder used by the mummy for sacrifice.

The main thing is to block the corpse monsters behind them, although the corpse monsters rushed over directly, but because they had to keep summoning the skeletons on the ground, they had also been greatly affected in speed, and the distance between them and the mummy Fan Wu in front of them was getting bigger and bigger.

But looking at the state of the corpse monsters, they didn't seem to be anxious, as if they were confident, they hung far behind them at an unhurried speed.

After Fan Wu stopped chattering in the space for a while, he continued to hear the sound of air rubbing more and more, and knew that he should be in a hurry again.

Since the Thunder Dragon was fused for a period of time, his left hand has not stopped clenching his fist and discharging, since he can't do anything now, he just keeps practicing the ability he just obtained.

After a long time, he slowly found that with the increase in the number of discharges, it seemed to be more closely related to the practice of the outside world, and the most obvious thing was that the sound he heard seemed to come from a distance, a little blurry and empty.

But now he can feel that the sound is happening not far away, and in addition to this discovery, the energy that the cloth has given to his body through the process of discharging electricity has begun to channel out of the body, preventing them from continuing to invade the body.
