The Godsfall Chronicles

Chapter 56: Land of ruins

Views:

Yunying and the queen rode the monitor lizard until dawn, and new changes appeared in the desert dunes, slopes and grass, and a large group of ruins appeared in the field of vision.

Ancient metal frames, strange wreckage ruins, dilapidated high walls, remains of buildings, they are densely packed with sight, like a dense jungle built of stone and metal, endless, endless, thousands of years of time erosion, thousands of years Baptized by wind and sand, there is a dilapidated sense of magnificence!

A huge wall of about fifty meters surrounded the surrounding area, and everyone could only enter the ruins through a gap in it. Even if it is rusted badly, even if the cracks are filled with tenacious weeds, this tall and majestic behemoth still looms the majestic splendor of the past.

Dozens of human beings are walking in the huge ruins, just like ants are not worth mentioning.

In addition to ancient buildings, there are also a large number of strange ruins such as statues, temples, and palaces, as well as Hengduan mountain peaks, huge collapsed caves, and countless tons of boulders. No one knows how this place was formed, and no one Knowing what happened back then, the truth of all this has been submerged in the long river of time.

Probably the ruins resisted the wind and sand and provided living space for plants to grow. Various kinds of dwarf trees and shrubs can be seen everywhere, and the traces of biological activities can be seen everywhere. The whole ruined city is like a huge labyrinth, which is enough to make people get lost in it forever. It is difficult even for experienced hunters to get out of it.

It wasn't the first time for the Lion to come to the Greenfield Camp. His experience could lead the team to avoid wrong and detours, and he could also actively avoid areas where dangerous creatures were active. However, walking in the ruined city, how could it be possible to not encounter any danger at all.

There were howls all around.

Before everyone had time to distinguish, a spider-like figure sprang out from the ruins, its limbs jumped out of the ruins, and rushed to a soldier in an instant to attack. The soldier reacted quickly and drew his weapon into the opponent's body.

The monster's madness was beyond imagination. It let the weapon pierce through its body, and opened its mouth to bite the soldier's shoulder with sharp black teeth.

"Kill it!"

Several people rushed forward.

The monster was still alive and kicking after being stabbed a dozen times.

In the end, a strong man raised a hammer and smashed his head, and this tenacious guy fell down.

Yunying took a closer look. The monster's skin was gray-black, and its limbs were highly distorted. However, it had a head, limbs, and clear facial features. It was clearly a human: "Is this a mutant?"

At this time, Liaoshi pulled out a five-foot broadsword. This knife was long, big and unpretentious. The handle and blade were the same length, and the blade was as straight as wide as a palm. Although it was full of scratches and blood spots, the blade was bright and cold. Cold light. The wild lion was majestic and menacing, but now that it had a long-handled sword in hand, it had the momentum to sweep away thousands of troops.

"Lion, what are you doing?"

The lion is like a shooting star passing through the crowd, and when the big knife is swept out fiercely, its momentum is like a rushing river that cannot be resisted.

The bitten soldier's eyes were wide open, and his head flew high and fell several meters away. The headless body continued to squirt blood until it limp on the ground. He didn't know what happened until he died.

Everyone else looked at the lion in horror.

"It's not a mutant, it's a living corpse." Liaoshi held a big knife without a drop of blood on it. "Ordinary people who are bitten by a living corpse will become a new living corpse within a day, and must be removed."

This is the first time I've heard of such a thing as a living corpse.

Liaoshi continued: "The living corpse is a group activity, we must leave as soon as possible."

Sure enough, there were bursts of howling from living corpses all around. Nude humanoid creatures crawled and jumped like spiders on the walls and ruins. Pairs of scarlet eyes locked here. There were dozens of living corpses. The number is still increasing.

Yunying's face became a little ugly: "Why are there so many living corpses!"

The wild lion raised the big knife in his hand and shouted: "Follow me, be careful not to be bitten, even if it is their blood, try not to get on it, otherwise it will be very dangerous."

Zombies are not mutants.

This is a monster transformed by a mutated virus.

The living corpse virus is mainly in saliva, and secondly in the blood. Therefore, saliva is the most contagious. If bitten by a living corpse, there is basically no possibility of surviving. In addition, the body is injured and comes into contact with the blood of the living corpse. There is also a great possibility Sex is infected.

There is no cure.

This is the scary place of living corpses!

Yunying would rather deal with more ferocious and terrifying creatures, and he doesn't want to fight with things like living corpses.

At this time, the wild lion rushed to the front, swiping with a big knife in his hand, two of them blocked the middle of the spot, and the living corpses around them continued to surround them. These monsters had long since known what fear was, and every time they attacked, they seemed to die together.

"Ah, I'm bitten, I'm bitten!"

A wilderness warrior let out a shriek, and the living corpse bit off half of his palm. Compared with the severe pain of the wound, this kind of fear and despair is more creepy.

"Bastard, I will fight with you!"

The soldier rushed in hysterically, but was immediately surrounded by four living corpses and fell down. Amidst the wailing and screaming, he was ripped open by the claws of the living corpses, and the living corpses directly enjoyed the big meal on the spot. It's creepy.

Facing three living corpses, Yun Ying didn't know which one to attack, they were all too fast, even if he could repel one of them, it would be very difficult for him not to be bitten by the other two. Bite, and it's over.

Three living corpses would not give him any time to think.

When Yun Ying was at a loss, the Bloody Queen suddenly grabbed the exorcism stick, flipped her wrist lightly and swung three sticks, the heads of the three living corpses exploded almost in sequence.

The Bloody Queen happens to be more powerful than Yunying. She uses a little energy to activate the exorcism stick, so that other people can't feel the power of the artifact, but it just happens to be able to smash the head of the living corpse, so that no one cent is wasted. Power, unlike Yun Ying who is going all out this time.

The Lion shouted loudly: "The number of living corpses is increasing, hurry up and break out, or they will all die!"

Yunying found that after the battle, the number of living corpses did not decrease, but increased.

Sooner or later, they will be completely surrounded by living corpses.

Who knows how many living corpses are hidden in this ruin!

The Bloody Queen turned around, she was responsible for repelling the living corpses, and Yunying was responsible for driving the sand monitor lizard, following the team to break through. The wild lion still took the lead, and under the sweeping and slashing of the sword, none of the dozen or so chopped up living corpses was intact.

The crowd kept running wildly.

The living corpses kept chasing.

Now the number of these humanoid monsters is gradually approaching a hundred. They are like spiders flipping up and down in the ruins, sticking to the crowd like tarsal maggots and chasing them. There is no way to get rid of them. Now six soldiers have been lost. If the living corpses still continue to hunt and kill, I am afraid that the number of casualties will increase further.

Just as the lion was thinking about countermeasures.

Everyone felt that the ground was shaking, and a huge monster drilled out of the ground in front of it. Its shape resembled a huge crab, but it was more than ten meters long, and there were four huge crab claws. This creature was wrapped in extremely strong The carapace, I'm afraid it can't be pierced even with bullets!

The two unlucky ones were pinched in half by giant crab claws before they could escape.

When Yunying saw this basically invulnerable guy popping up, his face became ugly. Misfortunes never come singly. There are mutated monsters in front and hundreds of living corpses in the back. What should we do? Seeing the appearance of the giant crab, the lion did not panic, and immediately pointed in one direction and shouted: "Go here!"

Everyone got into a fork in the road.

At this time, the living corpse had already caught up.

The giant mutated crab rushed forward quickly, and directly slapped the living corpse on the ground with a huge pliers, then grabbed it with another pliers and shredded it, and sent it directly into its mouth. Seeing this, the other living corpses slowed down and hesitated.

Big crabs happen to be natural enemies of living corpses, and they usually survive by hunting and killing living corpses.

Although these living corpses had no intelligence, they still retreated instinctively in the face of natural enemies. The teeth and claws of the living corpses could not destroy the carapace of the giant crab, and the cancer weapons could easily kill the living corpses. This kind of battle itself was without suspense.

The desert giant crab saved everyone's life.

The crowd continued to accelerate without stopping for a moment, they were afraid that the living corpse would catch up.

"Attention, there is a canyon in front of us. We pass through the canyon to be the oasis area of the Greenland Camp." When Liaoshi said this, he didn't have any ease of arriving at the destination after a long journey, but with a deep sense of dignity , "No matter what you see, don't touch it, or you will die!"

Yunying was very confused by Liaoshi's statement.

oasis? What an oasis!

Yunying's confusion didn't last too long. When he followed the team out of the canyon, a scene appeared that left him dumbfounded. This is a basin with a very large coverage area, which is cut into multiple areas by continuous low mountains. Each depression is covered with a lot of green, and various plants grow lush and dense, and there is even a lake in the center.

A small desert oasis.

Yunying never imagined that there would be such a place in the wilderness, where dense trees gather to form a jungle, and vigorous weeds cover the ground, a large number of bright and beautiful flowers emerge from the bushes, and abundant groundwater emerges, converging into a lake in the center to nourish the whole region.

The location of the oasis is relatively low-lying, and the mountains are like walls to protect against natural disasters such as sandstorms, while the surrounding area is surrounded by densely packed ruins, like a ecstasy to keep out foreign beasts or intruders, so that the oasis camp is protected from animal disasters or man-made disasters.

This is a green gem in the middle of the vast desert sand sea!
