Chapter 336: Ghostly Tracks
"Hey, are these..." Feng Ling asked, looking at the mess in front of her.
And Yi Ke nodded calmly: "Well, there is no doubt that they should be the Thunder Squad that Sanjie mentioned."
A team of almost ten people lay in a pool of blood in front of them, their bodies incomplete. The surrounding area was filled with a pungent smell of blood mixed with a foul smell, which was nauseating.
"Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity. So many people, just gone like that." Kuang Dao smacked his lips, his face full of regret.
Hong Tao stood aside with his arms folded: "Yes, if an ordinary person saw this scene, they would have collapsed long ago."
"It's a pity that we are the Fallen Angel Troupe." Feng Ling said.
Yite glanced forward and said, "Be careful, what we are looking for may be here. Don't be careless."
As soon as the words fell, an eerie melody suddenly echoed around them, accompanied by the clattering of metal, as if countless suits of armor were slowly moving in the darkness. In the dense fog, dozens of pairs of dark blue flames lit up around the four of them. They were the eyes of the Undead Knights.
"Monsters? There are so many of them!" Kuang Dao and Hong Tao looked around and became alert instantly.
"It seems that it is correct, 'Killer Ghost' is here." It looked around and smiled slightly.
"You mean, the corrupted elements of the undead are among these undead knights?" Hong Tao asked, holding a battle axe.
"No, these are merely manifestations of elemental power. It's just that the 'Killer Ghost' currently lacks a carrier and hasn't taken shape. Therefore, even if it could control a massive army, it can't get very far."
"So that's how it is. Next, we just need to break through by force and then find a temporary carrier for 'Killer Ghost', right?" Hong Tao said with a smile.
"That's right." It nodded.
Hearing this, Kuang Dao immediately became excited: "Humph, just what I want!"
"Then leave it to us next!" Hong Tao said as he picked up the battle axe and smashed it to the ground.
The battle started immediately. Kuang Dao held two blades and moved as fast as the wind. Hong Tao also summoned rocks to block the actions of the Undead Knights.
boom!
The axe struck the ground with such force that it cracked. A circle of ochre light spread out from him, and earth walls were instantly erected around him, surrounding the Undead Knights.
The Berserker's blades swirled like ghosts, their double blades whirling up and down. Each swing evoked a cloud of black smoke, the venomous aura released by the undead knights after being struck. Although these undead knights were not afraid of ordinary damage, they were still scattered under the Berserker's whirlwind attack.
"Whoosh~" It whistled, "Looks like we don't need to do anything."
"After all, it is a monster derived from absorbing corrupted elements. Naturally, it is not stronger than the elements themselves." Feng Ling said with her hands folded.
"Then let's prepare to start recovering 'Ghost Killer' according to the plan." After saying that, It continued to move forward.
Along the way, Kuang Dao and Hong Tao worked together, cutting through the thorns and brambles. The oncoming Undead Knights were completely vulnerable to their violent elemental forces. However, after they eliminated all the Undead Knights, nothing happened at the scene.
"Strange." Feng Ling looked around, then turned her gaze towards Iter. "Logically speaking, after defeating these monsters, 'Shagui' should reveal its true form."
Kuang Dao kicked the dissipating black armor fragments at his feet and said, "Could it be that someone made a mistake? This is actually just an ordinary village invaded by undead monsters."
"How is that possible? Our doctor has never made any mistakes." Hong Tao said with his arms folded.
At this time, It stood there and considered it in detail.
"It shouldn't be like this. Logically speaking, there is no other possibility for such a scale except the power of 'Ghost Killer'. Could it be..." At this moment, he suddenly remembered what Rex had said before.
He once said this.
"One night half a year ago, some villagers got lost and stumbled upon this place. That's when they heard a sound similar to a child crying."
"Crying... I see. Logically speaking, the fallen elements representing the deceased can only resonate and activate with the dead. The Undead Knight is an embodiment of the elements. If the elemental power had not found its host, it would not have reached such a scale." It smiled.
"So what exactly do you want to say?" Kuang Dao asked in confusion.
"It's simple. Remember what Rex said? Anyone passing by here will hear a sound similar to a child crying. If I'm not mistaken, that child should be the host chosen by the 'Shagui'."
Feng Ling's eyes were slightly startled: "That's actually the case. If that's the case, how are you going to find him?"
Yi Te pushed up his glasses. "It's simple. I'll grant your request."
After he finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the center of the fog. He looked up at the sky and shouted, "How about it? Do you want to come out and talk to us?"
Suddenly, a faint sobbing sound emanated from the mist, as if it came from far away, yet seemed to be right beside their ears. The temperature around the four of them suddenly dropped, and a thin layer of frost seemed to form on the ground.
Looking at the strange scene around them, Feng Ling, Kuang Dao and Hong Tao raised their weapons again and became alert.
"Hey, don't be nervous, it might scare the kids." It turned around and scolded softly.
As expected, as the three men lowered their weapons, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them. It was a thin figure, about seven or eight years old, with a translucent body floating in the mist. He wore ragged coarse clothes, was barefoot, and his face was stained with tears.
Seeing this, the three people beside were stunned: "It really is a child?"
Yi Te smiled slightly and said softly, "Little boy, what's your name?"
The child raised his head and looked at Yite and the others with fear and confusion in his eyes. He replied in a trembling voice, "My name is Xiao An."
"Xiao An, huh? What about your parents?"
Hearing It's question, the other three were stunned, especially Kuang Dao, who had an expression on his face that said, "What are you talking about parents with the undead?"
"Mom and Dad? They're gone... Not only them, but everyone in the village is gone..." Xiao An said softly.
Hearing this, Feng Ling shook her head with emotion: "Alas, it seems that this is another unfortunate child."
"No way? They are already undead, shouldn't this be a matter of course?" said Kuang Dao on the side.
At this moment, Yi Te lowered his head and thought for a moment: "Is that so? Then can you tell me what happened?"
Xiao An spoke haltingly, "A locust plague... the village had no harvest. They said... I was the scourge, and then... my parents... abandoned me..."
The child's spirit suddenly began to fluctuate violently, and the ruins that emerged from the mist seemed to be telling of the disaster that had happened in the past.
