We originally thought that after the road-blocking boulder fell, there should be a lot of corpses crawling out of the coffin to attack us, but the results were clearly different from what we thought.
Those sarcophagi did react, but the first thing we saw was not a corpse, but a layer of white mist. This fog is very dense and looks a bit like the cloud effect made from dry ice in the stage performance, except that the white fog is obviously impossible to make out of dry ice, but it really looks like it.
The mist is obviously heavier than air. When it emerges from the sarcophagus, it looks like a sea of clouds. When the mist that exceeds the sarcophagus' edge leaves the sarcophagus, it flows down along the edge of the sarcophagus, and then falls to the ground. It fell into a relatively thin layer of mist, but as the older and more mist emerged, a light layer of mist quickly formed on the ground. Fortunately, the mist did not continue to accumulate, and After covering the ground with a thin layer, it did not continue to increase. Although there is still a continuous flow of fog in the coffin, the clouds and fog on the ground show no signs of rising. It seems that this thing will also dissipate naturally.
After the clouds appeared, we still didn't wait for the expected corpses, so that we soon became impatient.
Real red glanced at me, meaning obviously asking if I need to go up and see. I thought for a moment or motioned for them not to move, and then I started walking forward carefully.
In fact, the nearest coffin was only a few meters away from where we were, so even if it was slow, I quickly reached the sarcophagus.
Because the sarcophagus is full of the thick mist. So even when I stood on the side of the sarcophagus, I could not see what was inside, so I just simply extended my head and glanced at it. After confirming that there was no way to directly see the situation inside, I gave up decisively to see the inside. The intention of the situation turned to those sarcophagi next to the wall.
Unlike the sarcophagi placed in the center of the passage, these sarcophagi embedded in the wall are standing coffins, which means that they are all standing. Because these fogs have a large specific gravity, it is impossible for them to fill the space inside the coffin in a standing coffin. At least I should be able to see the top half of the sarcophagus.
The facts are similar to what I thought. When I walked to the nearest coffin, I easily saw the situation inside.
Just like I thought, because the coffin was upright. And the front covers are all open. So the situation in the upper part of the coffin was very clear, and there was no fog that could block my sight. At this point, in the standing sarcophagus, there really was a humanoid object. And I think this is mostly a corpse.
The reason is not sure if this is a corpse. Mainly because the humanoid object in this sarcophagus wore a fairly wide robe. This robe has a wide hem and long sleeves. The cuffs are wide, and the arms are completely shrouded in the sleeves, and no skin is exposed at all. The lower robe hem is also dragged directly to the ankle position, and you can only see the shoes down, and you can't see any skin. The upper part is almost the same as the lower part. Although the robe is no more than the neck, the collar of this robe is very high, and it is still a hard collar. Standing tall, there is no meaning to fall down As for this guy's entire neck and a small part of his chin were blocked by the neckline, he couldn't see the inside at all. As for the higher position ... it's a hat similar to the zombies with cloth curtains covering the face we saw before. This hat is also a relatively high type, but it is not a pointed top, but gradually narrows upward from the position of the head circle, but suddenly becomes a flat top at a height of more than ten centimeters, and does not continue to extend upwards. However, compared to the zombie hats I saw before, this guy's hat is obviously much more gorgeous. The blue hat looks like it is made of a certain high-grade material. There is no trace of dirt on the surface, but it is silky and shiny and very beautiful. In addition, there are many rune-like things on this guy's hat, all of which are embroidered with gold thread. At first glance, the workmanship looks very fine, and those zombies I saw before are not at all a level.
In addition to this gorgeous hat, the most important thing is that it also has a curtain hanging in front of it, covering the entire face of the suspected corpse, and embroidering a bunch of gold threads on the front of the curtain Very complicated runes, the faint energy fluctuations show that this thing is by no means decorative.
Although I can see the approximate appearance of this thing, but because it has no skin exposed and it is motionless, I am not sure what is going on with this thing. As for the situation in the lying coffins It is even more ignorant.
Seeing me standing there for a long time, Kristina couldn't help asking: "What's going on with you?"
I glanced at them a little uncertainly: "I don't know! There seems to be a corpse, but I don't know why it didn't respond at all."
True red was obviously a bit eager, and when I heard it, I ran straight over and looked at the sarcophagus I was looking at. It turned out that I did n’t ask me after I found the corpse, so I just reached out to slap it. I quickly grabbed the really red hand, and then said, "Let me do it!"
True red didn't fight with me. Since I said that I was going to do it, she volunteered to the side, but I changed eternity into a long stick, and stood there two meters away and touched it with eternity carefully. Corpse arm.
Unexpectedly, the opponent's body was not stiff. After eternal encounter, the suspected corpse shook a bit, but as soon as my strength was removed, it immediately stood up again. There was no meaning to fall down.
Zhenhong and I glanced at each other in doubt. Just now, it has been clearly proved that this thing is a living corpse, because if it is a real corpse, it should be overthrown. But even after the guy apparently lost his balance, he would still find his own balance and stand up again. This can only be done by living corpses and the like. However, if this thing is a living corpse, they should have attacked us right away, but now it seems that when we are air, there is no response at all. This is not in line with the laws of the living corpses.
"Chairman, can you just check it out with eternity?" Christina advised later.
I thought about it. It seems that this way has long been the only way. So the front end of the eternity became a hook with a large arc around the neck of the thing from the back, and then the eternal deformation completely closed the hook, turning it into a ring to lock the neck of the thing. In this way, that guy is tantamount to being fixed, and there is still eternal blocking between it and me, if it comes over. As long as I hold it firmly, it's impossible to approach me.
After encircling this guy's neck, I started to pull out carefully. And that guy didn't seem to resist me. I just used a little bit of strength on my side, and the other person started to move forward with my strength. When the guy first started to move, I was still worried about whether this thing was about to come over, but as soon as I stopped it, it stopped. There is no hint of initiative.
It was confirmed that this guy did not seem to take the initiative. I just let go and pulled the guy out of the coffin. Without the other party resisting, I quickly pulled it to where we were. As a result, the other party followed my power all the way, and there was no sign of resistance at all.
"Is this a corpse?" Christina asked, looking at the thing in front of her.
I frowned and said, "Not sure. I didn't smell the body odor, and although there was still life in this thing. But it wasn't too strong, and it felt strange."
"Is this a zombie transformation in progress?" Gold Coin asked: "Because the transformation is not complete, it will not move, and the vitality of death is not too heavy."
"Should not." I shook my head and said, "The energy fluctuations on this thing are still quite strong. Zombies would not have such a large energy level, otherwise, if these things are transformed, they will all be level. "
The gold coin suddenly said at this time: "Anyway, this thing has nothing to do with our task. If they don't move, can we just ignore it?"
Not to mention, the words of gold coins remind us. Before, we just retreated to the wall here because of fear of being attacked. If none of these corpses would move, we don't seem to have any need to take care of these things. As long as they are normal corpses, at most it is a little bit infiltrating when passing by, and it has no effect on us.
After responding, we immediately followed the previous thinking, except for the main goal of the task, other things were not affected without affecting the main task. After letting eternity let go of this guy, we determined that this thing had no intention of moving by ourselves, and we were going to leave this place directly, but just as we were about to leave, the really red but boring past reached out and lifted the thing The curtain wanted to see what this face looked like. It was her look that suddenly touched this thing.
Just after True Red opened the curtain in front of that guy, the thing suddenly opened his mouth and made a "huh ..." sound, and sprayed a lot of white mist from his mouth, just like those on the ground. .
Because of the sudden reaction of this thing, Zhenhong was so frightened that she let go aside, and we were alert immediately, but what surprised us was that after Zhenhong dropped the curtain, the thing stopped moving.
"This is a seal?" Gold Coin asked, looking at the curtain.
Christina shook her head and said, "This is not a European magic system, I don't understand the above!"
The gold coin said immediately: "This is not our Taoist thing!"
"Whatever it is, it must have a seal or something like that," I said.
Zhenhong asked me, "Would you like to open this curtain and wait for a while to see what has changed in the end?"
As soon as the gold coin heard it, he objected: "You still taught me before. Don't study these unrelated things."
Kristina shook her head and said, "It's different. There are so many things, and it's also a hassle in case we suddenly move all the way halfway!"
I understand what Christina said. And before I planned to ignore these things because they didn't mean to move in the first place, so I planned to take the risk to walk over and talk about it. But now it has been found that these things are not incapable of moving, but they have not been driven by any thoughts, so they have not moved. This is exactly the same as before. If these corpses were previously dumb bombs, then they have changed from dumb bombs to intact bombs, the difference is that they are not activated, and they are not completely incapable of explosion.
Of course, I hope that this kind of instability can be eliminated, so I finally decided to check it after weighing it.
After nodding to Zhenhong, I locked this guy again with eternity, and then Zhenhong carefully took out the rarely used sword instead of my own hand and raised the curtain in front of the thing. As for the gold coins and Christina, of course, they hid farther away to prepare for spells to deal with the zombie riots that may occur at any time.
really. As before, as soon as the curtain was opened, the thing immediately showed signs of movement. First of all, the posture like the military posture of Lizheng suddenly softened suddenly. It's as if the body is relaxed. Then this guy opened his mouth again and developed a silent shout. But although no sound could be heard, a lot of white mist could be seen coming out of this guy's mouth, but as soon as he left his mouth, he immediately fell to the ground. Did not fly forward.
That thing has been opening the mouth in front of that curtain and spraying that kind of white mist. We soon discovered that the main factor of this thing now is not the curtain, but the white mist in its mouth. The curtain functioned more like a plug, it sealed the white mist inside the body, and as soon as the curtain was opened, the thing would start to spit out this white mist on its own. I estimate that after the white mist is completely spit out or the concentration drops to a certain level, 80% of this thing will move by itself. However, despite such speculations, we still plan to move this thing first and then say, at least we can know how the combat power of these things move, and we should be prepared in case of an attack.
The facts are slightly different from what we imagined. The thing closed its mouth after all the white mist in the mouth was spit out, and then the eyes that had been tightly closed also opened. When the red eyes like the two bulbs light up, we all thought that this thing was about to attack, but what surprised us was that this thing just opened its eyes, and then stood there motionless and did not respond. . Even if we open the curtain in front of him first, the mist in his body seems to have completely discharged, and he is not spraying the white mist outside, but he just stays still, as if a normal person is in a daze. .
"I rely on it, even if it's an attack, you can give a response!" Zhenhong said helplessly looking at the wooden stake in front of her.
"Isn't it a good thing not to move?" Said the gold coin. "Don't you want all these zombie-like things to jump up and attack us?"
"It's really easy to get up all the time. The key is that it can't be as restless as it looks!" Zhenhong said.
In fact, I feel the same way. If the other party really attacks, it's okay. The key is that he can move, but he doesn't respond. This makes people feel that the road ahead is completely a pit. As long as he goes forward, he will be overcast.
Kristina looked at the zombie-like guy beside her and said, "Actually, I think these things might not move because they didn't hear the order."
"Ah?" I looked at Christina in doubt, and then thought for myself, it seemed reasonable.
True Red didn't think much of Christina's words, but jokingly said, "Isn't all this remote control impossible?"
Christina joked, "Maybe it's voice-activated."
True Red followed the joke and said to the zombie-like thing: "I'll try it. Hey, raise your hand."
Alas. Just after Zhenhong jokingly said such an order, the thing's hands suddenly stretched straight forward, exactly like the zombies in ancient Chinese zombie legends. Because this guy's sudden action scared us almost instinctively out of a few meters away, and then watched this thing together alertly, but found that it just held his hands flat and did not move next.
"I rely, it's really voice-activated!" Zhenhong finally responded. The action of this thing is obviously a response to the command that was really red just now. In other words, this thing really responds to the verbal command of true red.
The gold coin suddenly said at this time: "If this thing can be controlled by us, does it mean that these things are actually a reward?"
I have to say that gold coins are indeed talented in terms of fishing. As she said, if these things can really be commanded, they can also be regarded as a kind of combat power. Although we don't know what the combat effectiveness of this thing is, according to the energy induction, it seems not to be too bad, at least not weaker than those demon miscellaneous soldiers just killed by Christina. Besides, these things are picked for nothing anyway.
After thinking about the benefits of these things, we immediately got excited. Of course, we first need to test whether these things can really be commanded.
Purposeful testing. The effect is obviously obvious. We soon discovered that this thing is really a baby. First of all, this thing does not have the shortcoming we are most worried about-mutiny.
At first we were always worried that since this thing is voice-activated, will it be heard by others after they have been ordered by the enemy? If so. Then these things are tantamount to waste. Because if the commands on both sides are opposite. Most of these things will lose their ability to move, anyway, they can no longer be used as combat power. However, we found out after actual testing. This thing is not that everyone listens to it, but it is like a new born little thing. At first glance, it only listens to that person.
The zombie just saw the real red at first glance after opening the eyes with white smoke, so he only listened to the order of the real red, and then we started several zombies one after another to prove that it was really only the first look Those who are there can order them, and the words of others are useless.
In addition to testing that this thing can only be commanded by specific personnel, we also quickly discovered that the power of these things is comparable to ours. Of course, this is just pure strength, not combat effectiveness. These guys seem to really belong to a zombie. Although I have not seen this series before, many of their characteristics are in line with the characteristics of zombies. For example, it is infinitely powerful and inaccessible. Of course there is low agility.
These guys have basically the same power properties as me, a little smaller than real red, but much larger than gold coins and Christina. Their physical defense is quite good. Although they feel very soft when they have not been ordered before, actual tests have found that ordinary weapons can actually make sounds of knocking metal blocks, and the hardness is quite amazing. But it may be because of too hard, these guys are not very fast. Although the attack speed is not slow, the movement speed is more problematic. Fortunately, these guys' behaviors are neither like the zombies of the east jumping around nor the western zombies having arthritis, but rather similar to the walking way of normal people. The only problem is that these guys ca n’t run. If you order them to run, they will move in a way similar to race walking. Although it is really a little faster than normal mode ~ EbookFREE.me ~ but it is true It's just that.
Although we were dissatisfied with the speed of these guys, it was the cannon fodder picked up by white, so we didn't care too much.
After roughly testing the basic attributes of these guys, we began to study the sarcophagi lying in the center of the aisle. Unreasonable zombies can give us combat power, but not in the middle. So we estimate that there must be zombies inside, but it is estimated that there are some differences from standing on the wall, after all, the treatment is obviously different. However, the sarcophagus lying on the ground was completely covered by the white mist, so we don't know what the contents looked like. However, we did not dare to move because we were afraid of being attacked. Now we are not afraid. Let the controlled zombies go directly to help take out the contents, and then we see the true content of the masters in these lying coffins.
Sure enough, these are also zombies, but they are indeed very different from those we got from the wall, because ... these sarcophagi are all beautiful zombies. Not only are they dressed up and down and the zombies around them There are obvious differences, even the energy fluctuations on the body are quite different.
"These are ... French zombies?" Christina said such a judgment as if her face was cramping. (To be continued ...)
