Gold coin is justice

Chapter 267 Dark Tunnel

"The corpse king is indeed very powerful, but the little corpse eater he created is not so good. So far, only half a year has passed, even if the corpse king really cultivated in the process There are so many little corpse cannibals, then these should also be juvenile corpse cannibals, and their combat effectiveness should not be strong. In this case, if a riot really occurs, the earl can ask his soldiers to go and take these The problem is solved. Among them, the only thing that can be regarded as a problem is the King of Corpse Eaters."

"In this case, where will we get the song of the mermaid to fight? So I judge, this earl shouldn't want us to destroy the King of the Corpse Eater. This is precisely because we did not expect us to kill the King of Corpse Eater. , So this earl will be so happy when he signs the reward for 100 gold coins. Because he knows that he will never give this money, even if it is to sign 1,000 gold coins."

"Since the earl didn't want to kill us deliberately, nor did he want us to destroy the King of Corpse Eaters, is it that we should be fed as bait? It's impossible."

"We are a guild of adventurers. We have a wealth of experience against corpse cannibals. If it is purely as bait, there are so many innocent people in Tianhe City who do not understand this. Isn't this earl afraid that we will really be in case? Did killing this King of Corpse Eaters completely bankrupt his Gold Nugget Ranch project?"

"Combining the above situation, I came to a conclusion. That is, Count Capp did not want us to die, at least he did not want our entire army to be annihilated. He also did not think that we would actually destroy the King of Corpse Eaters, so he correspondingly The situation should be that our mission failed, we went back to see him in a desperate manner, and then he didn't give a single coin, so he blasted us out of Tianhe City."

Hearing this, Buffy looked dizzy. She sat on Brad's shoulder, reached out her hand and nodded her head and said, "President, then I don't understand. Call us hurriedly. , But don’t let us do anything, let us go through a mission failure before leaving. What does this mean? In your human terms, is it too free?"

Airo squeezed his chin, walking along, thinking all the way: "This is exactly what I'm thinking about. The earl wants us to live and entrust us with tasks, hoping that our tasks will fail... I always feel that Count Capp should still hide What did not tell us. And this hidden secret is likely to be the key to solving this problem."

While Airo was still thinking hard, Brad, who was at the forefront of the team, suddenly stopped, handed the torch to Airo behind him, took out the shield, replaced the hammer with a long sword, and stood still.

Ai Luo looked intently, and saw a corpse eater lying about twenty meters away in front of him, wandering constantly, seeming to lose his direction and pace back and forth.

Judging from the size and the teeth and claws that have not yet fully grown, it should be a juvenile corpse eater.

"Prepare. Be careful not to get hurt."

Ai Luo murmured softly, and Song of the Mermaid immediately assumed a fighting stance, carefully approaching the young corpse eater.

The baby corpse eater seemed completely unaware that someone was approaching, and the two light-emitting organs exuded a faint light, but they never found their way.

When Brad approached the infant corpse eater at a distance of about five meters, he rushed forward!The quicker footsteps made the baby corpse eater quickly turned to Brad's side, opened his mouth, and was about to scream!

But before it could make a sound, a violent shield slammed into its mouth.As the shield was lifted, the baby corpse eater was turned over immediately with his chest up!Immediately afterwards, Brad straightened up the long sword in his hand and stabbed steadily, and instantly ended the life of the monster before it realized the resistance.

This set of actions went smoothly without any pause.Obviously, being able to make such a smooth attack is undoubtedly due to the usual exercise.In this regard, Airo expressed great satisfaction.

Pulling out the sword, Brad flicked the blood away from it.

Cream stepped forward, took a cautious look, and said, "President, there is one more thing I don't quite understand."

Airo also walked up, put on his gloves, and gently opened the wound on the heart of the baby corpse eater. After a check, only disappointment was left. Then he said, "Do you mean the infection?"

Cream nodded: "When we faced the corpse eater before, we were injured more or less. The number of scratches and bites is not too small. But we have not been turned into zombies before, but now Tianhe City Occupied by zombies? This is a bit too strange, right."

In this regard, Aylor also agreed: "If we say that being scratched and bitten by a corpse eater will turn into a zombie, it's not that Margaux is bragging about us, then it can only represent a result."

After a brief pause, Airo let out a sigh of relief slowly: "It's the King Corpse Eater here that has mutated. Through this half a year of mutation, he has mastered the power to spread this kind of disease without knowing whether it is a plague or magic. , Can make people alive into zombies."

"And this kind of mutation has never happened before. The news we have so far is really too little, and there is no way to accurately infer what happened here."

After thinking for a long time, Ai Luo glanced at the young corpse eater on the ground, and slowly said——

"Anyway, our only goal now is still the King of Corpse Eaters. Killing that monster is our first mission on this trip. Brad, Buffy, Coco, Cream, do you have Complete this task with confidence?"

Although it is still a bit nervous to face the King Corpse Eater, when Brad was able to easily solve a baby Corpse Eater just now, everyone knew that his strength had really improved a lot in the past six months.At the moment, everyone nodded one after another, continued to cheer up, and walked cautiously toward the deeper part of the passage.

The underground system of Tianhe City seemed very complicated. The area where the prison was held was near the area where the huge waterfall fell from the sky.

Judging from the partial map of the underground space given by the earl, that area seems to be the location of the power system and prison of the entire city.

As he walked, Airo tried to figure out the map repeatedly.

how to say?

With this map alone, Airo felt that the earl must have something very important to hide from himself.

After all, judging from the boundary of this map, although this underground network does not occupy the entire area of ​​Tianhe City, it still occupies at least half of the area.However, judging from the guide route on the map, the earl obviously only gave a route to the area below the waterfall.The other roads are either dead or blocked.

What is even more exaggerated is that dead ends are marked on some roads marked with emergency passages.

It seems that the earl really hopes that his team can go to the area marked on the map, and then come back with a failed mission.

"Hush—"

Just as Airo was walking cautiously, Brad, who was leading the front, stopped and motioned everyone to hold their breath.

With the light of fire, it is obvious that there are several red dots flickering in the darkness ahead, accompanied by the familiar sound of the claws of the corpse eater rubbing the ground.

Brad raised the shield and long sword, Buffy flew up mid-air and splashed the fragrance of flowers on everyone. Cream picked up a stone from the ground and threw it toward a fork in the road ahead.As the stone hit the ground, the two corpses immediately broke into the range of the firelight from the darkness.

After half a year, seeing the Corpse Eater again, Ai Luo didn't think there would be anything to be happy about.

And compared to being in the mine, the physical characteristics of these corpse eaters really gave Airo a...disgusting feeling.

They also wore some fragments of clothes that they used to wear when they were humans, and the surface of their entire bodies appeared slimy, full of the bloody feeling of fighting.Especially when they opened the mouth formed by the neck, the teeth inside were mixed with blood stains and minced meat. The level of ferocity was definitely higher than that of the corpse eater in the mine.

The two corpse-eaters rushed to the fork road, wandering around the place where the stone fell, seeming to be desperately searching for the direction of the prey.

Seeing this, Ai Luo raised his hand, took out a bloody bead from his pocket and threw it toward the front of the team.

The strong smell of blood immediately seduce these corpse eaters, perhaps because they have never smelled such a smell before, they all gathered in front of the bloody beads, constantly moving around, and at the same time stretched out their paws to grab one. But it can only leave a scratch on the marble floor with loss of vision.

The Song of Mermaid waited silently.

When the two corpse-eaters all face the team with their backs, Brad has already rushed forward without having to speak out from Airo!He raised his sword and hammer, and slammed it down at the tail bones of the two corpse eaters!

The huge power almost instantly smashed and chopped off the tail vertebrae of the two corpse eaters.The badly wounded corpse eater screamed in horror, turned around and wanted to leap at Brad!But the two monsters that lost their center of gravity couldn't stand at all and fell directly to the ground.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Brad raised his shield again to block him, while the cream and undead soldiers flashed out from his left and right sides, and quickly went around behind the two corpse cannibals, each with one sword, accurately Passing through the heart of the corpse eater, the sordid life of these two monsters ushered in an end.
