Chapter 314, time waits for no one
This explains the fear of outsiders among the locals. After all, the attack was not about strength, and in the face of the dead gushing out of the ground, professionals and ordinary people would not react much differently Although some professionals reacted quickly, most did not have time to escape. Judging by the undisguised fear in the town, the group of dead may have been strong.
What level is that? Ouyang Dao was curious. Although the black-haired young man seemed to be hiding something in his narrative, the whole message was clear, and Ouyang Dao looked at Snowden as if he saw his thoughts.
Snowden wanted to refuse, but Ouyang Dao gave him a cold look from an invisible angle. Snowden trembled and said, "Let's see what the dead can do first" The black-haired young man nodded, and led Ouyang Dao and his companions to the wheat field on the left side of the town, under the scarecrow, tied up with some of the dead people they caught.
Along the way, Ouyang Daoji met this black-haired young man. He knew that the young man's name was Brandon. The girl next to him is Dani, the mayor's daughter. As for Ivan ยท Allen, who wears thick armor, is a veritable militia captain. Why the introduction should be emphasized in the name of truth is a deliberate reflection that goes without saying.
During the march, Brando introduced the powers and characteristics of the undead to several people, but did not mention the specific cause of this strange phenomenon, Ouyang Dao knew that it was an accident, but there was no more information. A few tentative words, waved contemptuously. Ouyang Dao finally understood a little why, after such a big event, teenagers were asked to host the show. The best man in town was wounded in the first attack, and the only old hunter who was not seriously injured was sent for help.
As for what happened during the first undead attack, Brando said that only one attacker was a strong man from the town, causing heavy casualties. The wheat fields to the south, not far from the inn and a little closer to the mountains, are small fields and not the main cereal-producing area in town. The scarecrow outside the wheat field, tied to the flesh of three dead corpses, and some gray skin, is almost indistinguishable from a normal person.
Of course, ignore all the fuss. Although Snowden knew he wouldn't be leaving here for a few days, he came according to the script.
"Untie the end and see what they can do"
Some people who saw the deceased tied to a pillar expressed displeasure. Brando gave them a slightly apprehensive look, then stepped forward to untie the iron bars that bound the dead. When the mayor's daughter uses her magic to loosen the fence, Brando uses her sword to fend off the crazed undead, luring him to Snowden's neighborhood. As he approached, Brando took a few steps back, and Snowden swung his sword and slammed it at the dead man he had attracted to. Bang!
The corpse flew away from Snowden's attack, and the surrounding townsfolk began, a little agitated. Brando moved his feet and secretly glanced at the other people in the town a few times, and the commotion behind him also subsided, and Ouyang Dao noticed the problem. It looks like there are a lot of innocent people here.
The battle between Snowden and the undead continued, and after a few steps, Snowden roughly calculated the power of the undead. Strength and speed have touched the bottom line of professionals, but only scratches the surface, and these immortal qualities are not visible to even the worst physical mages. However, due to fearless death and a barely frail body, the overall strength of the profession can also be contested.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but Ouyang Dao noticed that the undead were dressed in rough, calloused clothes, perhaps the most honest peasants. It is only possible to turn the body of an ordinary person into a professional, so how strong will those apprentices who have learned a profession, or even through the rituals of professionals, be strong to this extent Ouyang Dao is more interested in accidents, than statistically speaking, resurrected people are as influential as his blood. By the time Snowden made up his mind, he was ready to kill the Necrons.
The undead don't have the same weaknesses as creatures, such as heads or hearts, but they can chop off limbs so that the smell of death doesn't circulate through them, and it will naturally turn into a corpse. Just as Snowden was about to shoot, he appeared.
"What more could you want? Just as Snowden was about to chop off the limbs of the deceased, a simple peasant girl rushed over, first pushing the deceased in front of him, and then raising her arms in front of Snowden. "You know what you're capable of, what are you going to do to my dad? Snowden's face was grim. He knew something was wrong. Just as the boy stopped him, several townsfolk came out from behind him and tied up the farmer, who had turned into a ghost.
"You know they're dead, right? Snowden complained. "They're dead! Snowden's tone was resolute, but the girl in front of him held back her tears and shook her head, "I don't know what the living dead are, my dad is just sick, not normal for the time being!" Snowden was furious, and confronted the townspeople, who stood aside and divided into two groups as they wished.
"In fact, Lily knew his uncle wasn't coming back,"
When the two were arguing, Brando whispered to Ouyang Dao, "It's just that they don't want to believe it," Brando's eyes showed a look of longing, and he whispered, Ouyang Dao looked at him with a strange look, "It's normal to have this view of life and death," Brando said pretending to be friendly. "Nothing. Tie it up first. Time will tell" I didn't expect Ouyang Dao to give him such an answer, but I noticed.
"I also have a headache," Ouyang Dao nodded, "The ghost is starting to regain consciousness, and the situation is getting worse and worse. "I don't seem to understand what Brandau is saying. When the mayor's daughter stood beside him, Brando's face turned into a dull smile. At this time, the soldier guarding Ouyang Dao took over and made Brando's words very clear.
"What! Reason has begun to manifest, and what you say is true! Brandau nodded heavily, "yes, that's why I'm a little worried"
"It's not good. The presence of reason means that the power of the dead is still rising. At this rate, steel may not be able to withstand them" The soldier muttered to himself, I thought about it, confused by the mood of the people in the town, until I suddenly saw a bright light and looked at Ouyang Dao. Blandao breathed a sigh of relief at the perfect assist from the soldiers.
Ouyang Dao sneered at the mad soldier who stabbed himself in the back. Blame me for internal problems that I can't solve on my own, hehe! โ
An external solution to an internal problem is a great way to solve this problem. Brando was born in this village, and all the townsfolk watched him grow up, and although he had recently behaved well during the Necronomicon crisis, earning a level of trust, that trust could only keep the evidence at his general commands. When Brando makes excessive demands, such as killing corpses, the townspeople become their opponents. When the time comes, many problems will be solved.
On the other hand, Ouyang Dao was a foreign nobleman, and he gave orders in his capacity, and the people in the town could not change it, or even acquiesce. It's normal for Brando to think and act like this, and it's the best solution at the moment.
Ouyang Dao just slept in the town, solved the problem, and then moved on with his life. He had a few minor problems with the townspeople, but nothing was a big deal. Brando thinks so, so he leaks information that shouldn't be leaked. The undead are coming to their senses, and it's a big problem, not just the undead tied up in the wheat field, but also those who haven't been caught.
The stronger the power of the undead, the more likely it is that Ouyang Dao and his party will give up.
But after comparing the two, Brando felt that it was best to tell Ouyang Dao the news. Just when he wanted Ouyang Dao to give an order, Ouyang Dao did the opposite. Killing the dead is a good thing for Brando, but it is a bad thing for him.
These reformed townsfolk are useless, and if they are killed, they are nothing more than meaningless corpses, so why not give them something to recycle?Not to mention, in addition to the three people on the top of the wheat field, deep in the wheat field, in the forest at the foot of the mountain, there are more than a dozen villagers who have been blocked by their families.
The hope of the townspeople is that when the matter is resolved, the abducted people will be restored. As for the source of confidence for the townspeople, that is the source of all trouble. In fact, Ouyang Dao had some vague speculations, compared to normal circumstances, the strength of the town was very wrong, normal, the 23 professionals in a town were close to saturation. This is also the resource of the town, except that the mayor can be a professional, who wants to be unknown in such a barren town?
The three girls in front of Ouyang Dao had already reached the professional stage, and according to them, they were not the strongest. Add to that the mayor, who must be a professional, and the overall strength of this town exceeds the charts. Geniuses can't explain all of this for one reason, and that's that the town has secrets. I don't know what the secret is, but nine times out of ten it has to do with resurrected species.
As for the soldier in front of him, Ouyang Dao didn't seem to understand, as if he didn't understand anything, Ouyang Dao said calmly.
Just as the soldier was about to speak, Ouyang Dao briefly vented, letting the dizzy man know where he standed. Brando wondered. Everything was going well. Why did the soldier suddenly stop talking? Before Ouyang Dao could speak, he spoke first.
"Since the strength of these citizens may continue to grow, it is necessary to increase supervision," Ouyang Dao said, giving him a serious look at the mayor's daughter, and then Ouyang Dao looked at Brando and the soldier who stabbed him in the back just now. There may not be enough steel in town.
The two of you go out into the forest to gather some strong vines before it gets completely dark, but the soldiers are reliable at the critical moment, and looking at the soldiers who turned and fled, Brando couldn't speak. What can he say in this situation?
Could it be that he was directing this matter, and Ouyang Dao had to obey his orders? However, in fact, if the people in the town were asked if they wanted to hear Brando or Ouyang Dao, they had six soldiers, and the result was naturally self-evident.
In terms of power and prestige, Brando was no match for Ouyang Dao at all. The subject and object change, just between a few words. Brando went to collect the vines, although Ouyang Dao had no power to control him, but the situation was such that his own will could not resist. Ouyang Dao, who stayed behind, looked at the mayor's daughter, smiled, and whispered, "Now is the time to talk about business." โ
More than ten minutes later, Brando and the soldiers returned with vines, and on the other side, the quarrel was over, they could not argue with the result, even with the help of Snowden, the absolute superiority of the forces was the same.
When night falls, the quarrel stops, and the townspeople begin to suspect that spirits who are afraid of death will rush out of the darkness and take them away. They leaned together and returned to the hotel, no longer in the same good mood as before.
Ouyang Dao left four soldiers and Brando, when they do, they will tie up the vines they collected, which is a good thing, the undead are irrational under the influence of rising forces, otherwise these townspeople tied up in the wheat field will be in big trouble.
Back at his hotel, Brando looked much more tired, the soldier's sword stained with blood. When they returned, they were attacked by the undead, and in addition to two rotting corpses resurrected from an ancient cemetery, they had beheaded an innocent townsfolk with the sword of five.
Brando's mind grew heavier, and he realized that there were things that could not be put off any longer. Exhausted, Brando called the militia captain and the mayor's daughter. After some discussion, they came to Snowden.
"We must undo what the deceased did to this town," Ouyang Dao looked at him with a sly smile on his face.
"What do you suggest? Wielding his sword, now he doesn't care how suspicious his story is. "I know that the source of all this is in a cave, the power of the dead people in the cave is very strong, we want to wait for reinforcements, but Uncle Hunter has not returned, the attacks of the dead are becoming more and more frequent, and continuing to stay will only make the situation in the town more difficult" Brando looked at Ouyang Dao nervously, "I hope you can help us enter the cave, smash the power outside, and seal the air in the cave," Ouyang Dao said, looking at Snowden. Snowden did what he wanted and stepped forward.
"We can help you, but we can't easily grant your request. Tomorrow we will accompany you into the cave and, depending on the situation, decide whether to move forward or come back Snowden looks serious "I am responsible for the lives of my teammates, and if something goes wrong, I hope you are prepared"
Brando nodded calmly, gripped the hilt of his sword tightly.
"I understand your choice, but trust me, sometimes it's not so bad that you have to give up," Brando finished speaking and left, Ouyang Dao looked at his back without saying a word. It looks like Marlon Brando will shine tomorrow.
