Chapter 9: Zombies

Li Nuo turned over and got off the lion, and walked a few steps, but saw a set of silver armor piled up under a big tree, shining in the setting sun. Under the armor, one person had been dead for a long time, and the skin of that person was shriveled and pale, clinging to the skeleton, as if it had been drained of blood. The face has long been unable to see clearly, the eye sockets are deep, the gray eyeballs are protruding from the sockets, the lips are chapped, and the teeth are sticking out of the lips with gums.

Li Nuo had never seen a person who died unexpectedly, and this person died in a miserable state, he almost couldn't help but vomit when he saw it, his heart was terrified, and he secretly cursed bad luck, he couldn't imagine that he came to this Zhuyin Continent, and the first human he saw was actually a dead person, which was really unlucky.

He quickly turned his head not to look at the corpse, finally suppressed the vomiting sensation, and asked, "This person's blood has been drained all over his body, what kind of demonic beast did it?"

Caique said: "This is the periphery of the Huluojia Mountain Range, and humans often come to hunt for beginner-level demonic beasts, but they are injured by demonic beasts. However, there are no demonic beasts that suck human blood in this area, and most of the demonic beasts that suck blood are ferocious, so it is impossible to preserve the corpses so completely. ”

Li Nuo nodded, turned his head to look at the jungle, in the past, he was accompanied by two high-level demonic beasts, Xiaohong and Caique, and he didn't feel anything, but at this time, he felt that it was very terrifying, as if there were mountain spirits and ghosts hidden in it, and they would pounce out at any time to choose someone to devour.

His voice trembled, and he said, "It's too dangerous here, so let's get out of here." ”

Rainbow Bird glanced at him contemptuously, and flew forward first, followed by Lino on the giant lion. After walking more than half a mile, he found another corpse, which was also shriveled, with a frightened face and a miserable death.

Li Nuo felt strange, but he didn't dare to stop, urging Xiaohong to move quickly, his eyes roaming around, and he looked very vigilant.

The mountains and forests were quiet, only the breeze gently stirred the grass and green leaves, and there was not even a single insect in sight, and there was nothing abnormal. Li Nuo felt that the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet, and his heart was uneasy.

Along the way, I saw more than a dozen corpses, all of which had been drained of blood and died. I don't know what kind of mountain spirit did it, as if it can never suck up blood.

It was getting dark, and Li Nuo didn't dare to camp, he just wanted to leave the mountain as soon as possible. When we reached the top of the mountain, it was already dark, and a blood-red crescent moon hung overhead. The mountains stretch far from end, like monsters lying in the dark night.

Li Nuo raised his eyes to look at the moon, and suddenly thought of the black-robed man he met in the dark room on the earth, and only felt that the red moon was very similar to the eyes of the black-robed man, as if the black-robed man was hidden in the night sky, quietly watching him, and a chill arose from the bottom of his heart. The black silence of the surrounding forest was eerie and terrifying, adding to his fear.

Li Nuo shrank his head and said, "Why is this moon so red?"

"What a fuss. Caique said lazily, "There are several blood moons in the Zhuyin Continent every year, which are much more common than the Demon King's Eclipse Sun and the Death God Swallowing the Moon. ”

Li Nuo thought to himself, this Demon King's eclipse of the sun and the devouring of the moon by the god of death are estimated to be solar and lunar eclipses, which are both common astronomical phenomena. Although the astronomical phenomenon of a blood moon occurs occasionally on the earth, it generally occurs during a lunar eclipse, but I have never heard of a blood moon occurring on a quarter moon, and this astronomical phenomenon is much less common than solar and lunar eclipses.

"Legend has it that whenever the filth of the undead contaminates the moon god, a blood moon will appear. Every night of the Blood Moon is a festival of the undead, and the power of the undead will be strengthened and they will be more active than usual. ”

"Dead ...... Undead?" Lenovo was shocked.

"What's so terrible about the undead?" said Caique contemptuously, "Some creatures with powerful souls died tragically in the place of evil, hatred and resentment persisted, and a wisp of resentment turned into resentful spirits, and resentful spirits sucked the aura of yin and evolved into undead. The resentful spirits of the low-level undead can control corpses and become zombies who only know how to kill. Only mortals are afraid of zombies, and the lowest-level martial artists will not take low-level undead in their eyes, and high-level undead are limited by the laws of the continent, which is not so easy to see. ”

Li Nuo felt a little relieved and said, "So, the undead can't beat you?"

Caique didn't bother to answer this timid master, so he snorted disdainfully, glanced at the giant lion again, and said, "I hope to meet a group of undead, so that Scorpion Moke can have a good time." ”

Li Nuo was puzzled, and he still wanted to ask, but he saw that the giant lion turned in a different direction and ran to the side, deviating from the original route.

Li Nuo patted the back of the giant lion's neck and said, "What kind of nerves are you doing?"

The giant lion didn't stop and roared twice. Rainbow explained, "Scorpion Moko said that there is the breath of the undead ahead, and the manticore lion is the most sensitive to the undead. ”

Li Nuo was startled, and said hurriedly: "You fool, I can't avoid it, why do you still rush over? Stop." ”

The giant lion whimpered twice, still stubbornly striding forward, but the speed was slowing under the power of Beamon's curse.

Since receiving the Bimeng inheritance, Li Nuo's eyesight has improved a lot, and he can distinguish objects at night. The eerie aura around them became more and more intense, and there were more than a dozen humanoid creatures swimming in the dense forest in front of them, which looked extremely pale in the blood-colored moonlight. Some of these humanoids are staggering with stumps, some have rotten and bloody bodies, and some have rotten intestines and pierced bodies...... A disgusting stench filled the forest, and the mountain breeze could not blow it away.

This is simply a group of zombies, Li Nuo covered his mouth and nose, feared in his heart, and said urgently: "You stupid lion, stop quickly." ”

Li Nuo tightened the mane of the giant lion, eager to strangle him to death. The giant lion reluctantly stopped, his eyes greedily fixed on the group of zombies.

The zombies seemed to sense the breath of the living, and they all turned to look.

Li Nuo was frightened, but he didn't dare to turn around and run away. According to the experience in film and television works, turning around at this moment, these zombies should rush over and bite him one after another.

Who knows, he was afraid, and the group of zombies seemed to sense something more terrifying, so they turned around and fled.

Without waiting for Li Nuo's command, the giant lion had already pounced on the nearest zombie, opened his mouth and opened a ball of flames, directly turning the zombie into ashes, and then the giant mouth inhaled, and a small cloud of white mist that had just risen from the ashes had been sucked into his abdomen. Then he pounced on another zombie......

In Li Nuo's stunned, the giant lion was as fast as lightning, the lion's mouth opened and sucked, a pinch of fire ignited, a zombie corpse disappeared, and a cloud of white mist was sucked up......

A minute later, the scattered zombies were swept away, and the giant lion stopped, smacking his lips in disgust.

"That's the end of it......" Li Nuo swallowed hard and spat at the mouth.

"What do you think?" Rainbow Bird stretched its wings as if stretching its waist, "It is rumored that the Manticore Clan comes from the Netherworld, and they have a natural appetite for the undead and the spirits of the Spirits, who can strengthen their beast spirits. ”

Li Nuo patted the back of the giant lion's neck excitedly and said, "So, with Xiaohong by my side, am I not afraid of ghosts?"

"There are some metamorphosis among the human mages, the primordial soul cannot communicate with the power of the elements, but it can resonate with the beast soul of the demonic beast, and can sign a soul contract with the demonic beast to become a noble beast master. Their status is even higher than that of mages of the same level, because of the strength of the demonic beasts. ”

"It's still Xiaohong's well-behaved and capable, unlike some stupid birds who don't have much use except for being good-looking. ”

Caique glared at Li Nuo angrily, if she hadn't been bound by the curse, she would have devoured this despicable and shameless human alive, letting him know that the noble Heaven Feather clan was sacred and could not be offended.

"What are you looking at? I almost forgot, you still have a role, go dance and comfort Xiaohong. ”

Caique, who became a member of the art team, had to dance, although he wanted to breathe fire in his eyes.

Beamon's curse is so domineering, it's just so unreasonable.

Realizing the manticore's ability, Li Nuo's heart was much more relieved, so he prepared to camp, thinking that the zombies had just wandered here, he really didn't want to settle down, and urged the giant lion to continue to move forward.

After walking a few miles, the giant lion became excited again and sped up. Li Nuo had the previous experience, so he didn't stop it anymore and let the giant lion kill another group of zombies.

Along the way, I encountered more and more zombies, and without exception, they all became a delicious meal for the giant lion. Li Nuo was puzzled and asked Caique, "Didn't you say that the undead are rare, how can there be so many zombies gathered here?"

Caique also felt strange and said: "There is something strange here, the yin qi gathers, it is rich and does not disperse, there may be something extremely yin in front of it, attracting the undead." ”

"Is there any danger?" Li Nuo tensed again.

Caique really feels sad for the master's rat guts, you are a Beamon inheritor, and you also have two high-level demonic beasts, the danger should be afraid of you.

She didn't know that Li Nuo was only nineteen years old after all, and he had been living at home and school since he was a child, and his life resume was as clean as a blank sheet of paper, how could he compare with the adventurers of this continent?

Although Caique looked down on Li Nuo's timidity in his heart, he could only answer: "There should be no problem." ”

"There should be? ”

Caique said helplessly: "If you are really not at ease, we will pass through the air." ”

"In the air?" Li Nuo was puzzled.

The colorful finch flew into the air, shook its wings, and turned into a giant bird with a body length of more than three feet, and flew to the ground.

Li Nuo stared coldly at the giant bird. This dead bird! stealing and hiding lazily, I forgot that she can also change the size, these days on Xiaohong's back bumpy, dare to love is in vain. I had let her fly with her, and maybe she would have been lying on a comfortable bed in the Aegean City Hotel by now.

Caique's eyes dodged, and he said with a weak heart: "Actually, I'm not like the stupid big man of Scorpion Moko, who has limited physical strength and can't fly people for a long time." ”

Li Nuo's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, the explanation is a cover-up." ”

Caique knew that he was wrong, and lowered his head in humiliation and lowered his body.

Li Nuo beckoned the giant lion to the size of a cat, picked him up, took the silver monkey, and jumped onto the back of the colorful bird. The sparrow took off into the air and flew forward.

Li Nuo is condescending, with a wide field of vision, and although he is in the night sky, he can still vaguely see the situation on the ground. I saw that the ground not far in front of me was black and pressed, and a large number of zombies were gathered, and the inner and outer three layers formed a circle, and the center of the circle was empty, and only a few figures stood in Liao Liao.

Li Nuo was out of danger, his curiosity rose, and he said, "Don't worry, let's go see what's going on and why these zombies are gathered here." ”
