"Old antique, come closer to me. What the hell is this?" Irene whispered to the young man next to her in a low voice.
Now they were walking in a dark and damp abandoned sewer.
In addition to the filthy puddles under her feet, there were also moss plants that Yilin had never seen before, with "indescribable" moss, and the sounds that echoed in her ears from nowhere, more like from all directions in the sewer, to be precise. It's all coming...
A low roar.
It was definitely not something that humans or animals could make. Erin had heard that sound twice, but both times she remembered it very clearly, because it was...
The sound that only a corpse can make.
Erin kept her nerves tight at all times and protected the young man beside her. She did not forget her duty. Moreover, the object the girl was wary of was far from the dangerous abandoned sewers at the moment. It also vaguely included the person leading the way. ..nun.
Maria stopped suddenly. She gestured to the two people behind her. After Yilin looked along, she found that at the bifurcation of the pipe, the two ends were full of ulcers, the arms were bulging, and the thick muscles were twisted into twists. Finally, The corpse that had transformed into meat pincers was wandering inside.
This is the only way for them to pass. Obviously if they want to pass, a battle is inevitable.
"Don't worry about me." Liao Ji spoke in advance to reassure Yilin.
After all, it seems that among the three of them, only Yilin is the melee type, and once the girl rushes forward, the nun will be the only one left beside him.
Yilin did not choose to use a gun. In a place like the sewer, the slightest movement would be amplified several times by the echo. The evil began to spread from the girl's body, and finally formed a bloody sword, which was held in Yilin's hand.
This is not the blood-red sword from the Kaleva factory. The width and length have been reduced a lot. Obviously, in Erin's opinion, the two corpses are not enough for her to use her powers.
As soon as the figure flashed, Yilin had quietly touched over. When she got closer to about ten meters, the two wandering corpses seemed to smell something, and they all turned their heads and aimed at the shadow where the girl was.
Seeing that she had been exposed, Yilin didn't hesitate. Ten meters was enough for her. She no longer walked slowly, but rushed out. In less than half a breath, she had already rushed to the first place. In front of the giant clawed corpse, the blood sword was directly sent into the opponent's neck with the momentum.
Poof!
After rising to the "Danger Level", the girl's strength has indeed improved a lot. The strength of this sword actually cut off the head of Zhuo Zhi. Then the other head came from behind, and the girl leaned down. After dodging the opponent's swiping meat pincers, he knocked him down with one kick, and then followed up with another sword thrust straight into his head, poof!
A clean battle, it can be said that it was a two-shot kill in a row.
"Miss Irene...so strong!" Soon after the three of them continued to move deeper together, Maria, who watched the girl's battle just now, couldn't help but make a sound of admiration to the girl.
"well enough."
"I don't know...can I ask, what did Miss Irene do before she became a doomslayer?"
It seemed that because of the battle that had just been crushed, the original sense of crisis was suddenly reduced. In this environment, Maria seemed to be opened up and started chatting with the girl.
Yilin didn't want to answer at first, but seeing that Liao Ji next to her didn't seem to mind at all, and seemed to encourage them to communicate more, she paused and replied:
"Scavengers."
"Eh? Then how did Miss Yilin become a doomed person? And how did she meet Mr. Liao Ji?"
Facing the nun, she asked with curiosity, but now Yilin didn't know how to answer, and was a little hesitant. Fortunately, Liao Ji spoke from the side.
"Irene is the most powerful scavenger in the Black Cave, so I hired her to go to the cave with me to explore the ruins. We were lucky enough to find some treasures, but when we retreated, we were spotted by the kobolds in the cave. At a critical moment, we Actually, I don’t know if it was the power of the treasure that allowed Erin to awaken her powers and become a doom-changer, which allowed us to come out alive.”
Following Liao Ji's words, the nun clenched her little hands with a nervous look on her face. After hearing the story's peaceful ending, she took a long breath.
But then, Maria stopped talking, and the conversation fell silent. Soon, as they went deeper and saw more and more corpses wandering in the small waterway, the three of them stopped chatting completely. Focus on exploring.
Although there were a lot of corpses, fortunately with Yilin's fighting power, the three of them were not delayed much along the way.
As they turned the corner of the next passage, Maria told them that Irene's mother was nearby.
This immediately stimulated the girl. When she saw the group of zombies blocking her way again, she couldn't wait to rush forward to sweep them away. Although the number of zombies this time was more than what she had encountered before, there were seven or eight of them.
The first two ends were fine, just like many previous battles, they were all instant kills. However, the next scene that happened among the zombies was completely unexpected by Yilin.
I saw that before the girl could get close to him, Zhuozhi, who was at the very back and was obviously a head taller than the others around him, was one step ahead of the girl and used his modified heavy fist arm to hit the people around him.
puff! puff! puff!
Every time it kills a corpse of the same kind, the red mist surrounding it becomes thicker. The muscles under the rotten skin suddenly bulge, and many spikes continue to intensify, and the momentum increases in the blink of an eye. More than one level.
It roared and sprinted towards the girl, and because of the angle, Liao Ji, who happened to have his back to the mutated corpse, could see two...marks of a coat of arms on its exposed back.
That's not a real coat of arms, it's like a trace left after being used once.
But even the imprint of the heraldry is shining with a strange light at this moment, which seems to be the source of the sudden mutation of this rotten corpse.
Yilin also tried to save her strength and did not release her superpower. She continued to use the blood sword in its normal state to meet the enemy. However, when the mutated zombie collided with her, she was able to erupt with a huge power that was several times more powerful than the ordinary zombie. , this was completely beyond Yilin's expectations, and she almost couldn't even hold the sword in her hand firmly, and was about to be blown away by the Zhuozhi.
Fortunately, the girl lost control of her body immediately.
The sword that wanted to attack Zhuozhi forcibly changed its trajectory and turned into a defensive posture, blocking Zhuozhi's next punch that followed.
Even so, the girl still flew in the air for a circle, and then landed on the ground and rolled awkwardly, dodging to avoid the follow-up pursuit of the corpse.
boom
I saw that the wall of the sewer where Yilin was just now cracked like a spider web under the second punch of the mutated corpse chasing after her, and it felt like the ground was shaking a bit.
Yilin was frightened at this scene. It was hard to imagine that without Liao Ji from behind, who had just intervened in the battle and forced her to switch from offense to defense. Otherwise, even if her sword struck Zhuo Zhi, it would definitely be equivalent to... If you injure the enemy eight hundred, you will lose one thousand.
what happened!
What is this rotten corpse...
It was only then that Yilin finally discovered that the two heraldic traces shining with blood-red light behind the corpse were...
There is no other way, it seems the only option is...
Just when Yilin was about to mobilize her powers and summon the real blood-red sword again, a few brief chants sounded, and then a burst of holy light shone through, completely covering the mutated corpse.
"Uh...ahhhhhh..."
The corpse roared in pain instantly, and then its huge body began to shrink, and its bulging muscles also shrank. In less than a blink of an eye, it turned back to the appearance of an ordinary corpse. The two remnants of the coat of arms that were originally shining with blood also completely disappeared.
"this..."
Before Yi Lin could react, the next second, another beam of light penetrated the head of the zombie like a sharp arrow. Even Yi Lin, who had reached the "danger level", found this mutated zombie to be troublesome. ..Just die that simple?
