Chapter 157 Living corpse?
While everyone was resting in place, Lilith stepped on the snow pit she had stepped into before and returned to the team with a normal expression.
"What's the matter? Did you see it wrong?" Seeing Lilith's expression, Bobby naturally thought that Lilith was being suspicious.
"The footprints have been cleaned up." Lilith leaned close to Katherine and whispered, her voice almost whispering. "They did it on purpose."
"Ah?! Why are you so calm?" Bobby was a little anxious. He looked at the sky which was getting dark. They were not going to be trapped in this woods, were they? Woohoo, witch, so bad!
"Isn't this good news? It means we are in the right direction." Lilith didn't take it seriously and smiled optimistically at Catherine. "We must be very close to them, so they want to lead us away."
She scanned the dim depths of the dense forest, thinking that perhaps the witches were quietly watching them in the darkness somewhere...
“Ah————!” A shrill scream was heard. It was Lulu!
Because everyone stopped, Lulu walked a few steps to the side and luckily found the ice lichen under the tree. People firmly believe that this moss will bring wealth if it is dried and carried in a bag, so it is very expensive. Lulu squatted happily and was about to dig some down when she suddenly heard a rustling sound.
She raised her head and saw a tall figure lying on the ground in the shade of several trees in front of her, moving towards them in a strange posture. Lulu stood up carefully and was about to step back to greet others.
The strange figure raised its head tremblingly, and Lulu suddenly discovered that the face had long been rotten and deformed, and was frozen into a pale blue color by the ice and snow, and it was almost impossible to see the facial features - it was a zombie! !
Lulu couldn't keep calm anymore and screamed!
"Lulu!" Upon hearing the voice, everyone rushed to her side. Lulu's guardian pulled her behind him and drew his sword, but he could not help but tremble. What was this thing!
"Hurry, run..." Sean's face was pale. He had already pinched the slug flower hanging on his chest in his hand, ready to run away at any time.
"Crackle-crackle." However, he was answered by two light sounds like wood crackling. Before Sean could turn around, he felt two burning flames flying out from both sides of his head, like angry meteors, carrying a blazing red light and fiercely hitting the terrifying zombie on the ground.
"Boom!"
Two fireballs were thrown out one after another. In an instant, the air seemed to be ignited, and heat waves surged. Wherever the fireballs passed, the snowflakes were instantly vaporized, leaving behind two white steam trails.
The originally terrifying atmosphere was completely destroyed. Where the fire was shining, the surrounding scenery was reflected in red. The strange crawling figure just now was blasted into a charcoal by two fireballs and was completely motionless.
Sean silently put down the slug flower in his hand, and his heart was filled with tears. Woohoo, if his fireball technique could be practiced to this level, he would definitely not be afraid! Lilith and Catherine, these two magic monsters...
"Are you okay, Lulu?" After throwing the fireball, Lilith walked towards Lulu and looked at her pale face with some worry.
"Ah..." Lulu looked at the smoking thing and finally came to her senses, "I, I'm fine."
All I can say is, she hadn't finished screaming yet, and Lilith and Catherine had already dealt with it. It happened too quickly, it was over before she could even recover from her emotions...?
Fearing that the remaining fire would ignite the forest, the guardians stepped forward, avoiding the strange charred mass in the middle, carefully checking for other fire points and covering them with ice and snow.
Lucas couldn't help sniffing as he swayed, and sighed, "It smells so good... can you smell it?"
He smelled the aroma of charcoal-grilled meat, which came from... He turned his head and looked at the thing in the middle that everyone was deliberately avoiding.
"No, brother!" Bobby followed his gaze and looked over with a look of horror. This was too strong! Bobby jumped a few steps in fear and returned to the team of magic apprentices, vowing to stay away from this pervert.
Lilith also heard Lucas's outrageous speech, her face darkened and she threatened, "If you want me to install that thing for you, I'll throw away all your junk!"
"Hey, no, no." Lucas drew out his sword with a smile. He had been strolling along the way and was only concerned with finding things for himself. He hadn't thought about his duties as a guardian at all. The sword hadn't been drawn out for many days and was almost rusted by frost.
"I'm just taking a look." Lucas ignored the perverted looks from others, stretched out his sword and poked it into the pile of charred corpses, stirring them, and then reached his hand in again -
"Ahhhhh, don't sleep next to me tonight and don't touch my blanket!" Bobby was about to collapse, and so were the others.
Even Catherine, who is an expert in expression management, could hardly control her expression at this moment. She said to Lilith speechlessly, "Why are your guardians a little bit..." Not normal?
But before she could finish her words, she watched as Lucas reached in, fumbled around a few times, and pulled out a mouse that was steaming in the cold winter...
The mouse was motionless, as if it had been roasted by the passionate flames of Lilith and Catherine. Just as Lilith was about to speak, Lucas bent down again and reached in, pulling out another one, and then another, and another...
Lilith: ...
"What a waste..." Lucas regretted, "It's a pity that it was cooked without any processing. This thing is actually quite delicious..." Before entering Gloria, if he could eat this, he would be happy. Lucas's face was full of nostalgia.
Catherine finally stepped forward and turned the charred corpse over personally. Although the corpse was no longer in human form, a huge hole could be vaguely seen on the chest, and it seemed that the rat had crawled in from there.
"This isn't a zombie..." Lilith also came forward and frowned after observing it. It looked more like an ordinary frozen corpse driven by a group of rats...
"Hey Lucas! You're not really going to eat them!" Sean couldn't help but complain as he watched Lucas arrange the mice neatly in a row.
"Hey, I--" Lucas chuckled and was about to speak when a huge crow swooped down silently from the sky and pecked him hard on the face. The crow's wings spread and fluttered above his head, and his head was covered by the huge wings.
Lilith was startled and was about to go forward to help, but she keenly felt a slight elemental fluctuation. She turned around suddenly and saw a black silhouette standing quietly behind a tree on the distant slope.
Ian kept an eye on Lilith's movements, followed her line of sight, and immediately drew his sword to be on guard - "Be careful."
However, Lilith was faster than him, and before Ian could finish his words, she had already rushed out.
