Chapter 864: Escape
Within a moment, all the nearby soldiers gathered here, surrounding the creature that jumped out from the pile of corpses.
Although the creature was very fast, it did not choose to escape before the soldiers surrounded him. It did not even move. It just stood there, allowing the surrounding escape routes to be surrounded by soldiers wearing armor and holding sharp blades.
The soldiers blocked the way.
Since it had not moved, the appearance of this strange creature was also fully revealed in front of the soldiers.
His body shape is not much different from that of humans, except that his body is a little rickety. On his shoulders, two bone spurs as sharp as wild boar tusks penetrated the already tattered clothes, exposing them to the outside.
Head level.
The soldiers behind it also noticed that the creature's tail vertebra had a tail as short as a human forearm, raised like a small snake.
This tail is composed of bone joints, with some pink flesh and blood tissue hanging on it, which looks shocking.
And the face of this creature is even more frightening.
It was a bony face. Under a layer of dry and wrinkled skin, it seemed to be his skeleton. The two eye sockets were deeply sunken, with red light emitting from them, and the eyes could not be seen at all.
His mouth was slightly open, and the two rows of jagged fangs were clearly visible.
Rather than saying that this is a creature, it is more appropriate to say that it is a vengeful ghost crawling out of the Nine Netherworld.
The human beings living in this world have no doubts about the legends of ghosts and gods. Many human beings have even witnessed monsters or ghosts and gods with their own eyes more than once.
Therefore, when seeing this terrifying creature in front of them, most of the soldiers did not panic excessively.
According to legend, after death, the soul will leave the body.
And if the main body dies with resentment, these souls will become wronged souls.
Wrongful souls represent the evil spirits of the world. The people who were killed here naturally harbor resentment, and it accumulates here for a long time. It is also reasonable that the wronged souls and evil ghosts will be born.
This kind of ghost, which was just born, is nothing to these soldiers who have experienced fighting on the battlefield, even entered the virgin forest, and seen monsters.
Some brave and skilled soldiers were ready to move at this moment.
They knew that they were no match for the ferocious monsters in the mountains and forests. Even an army of more than a thousand people could not challenge the evil god that dominated this area. However, in the face of this ordinary evil spirit, they used their numerical superiority to kill it.
, still looking at the beheaded Pao Ze at the feet of the "evil ghost" without any problem, these soldiers became even more angry.
Several brave and brave soldiers who usually walked relatively close to each other winked at each other, then dispersed in a tacit understanding, and quietly surrounded this "evil ghost" from all directions.
In their hands, the swords emitted a faint cold light.
In the battle not long ago, each of the swords in their hands killed no less than three lives.
Large-scale killings will arouse the bloodiness in the hearts of these soldiers. At this time, the desire to kill has not subsided. These soldiers are eager to fight in a bloody battle, eager to use the sharp blades in their hands to chop off the enemy's hands, feet, and even heads.
Suddenly there was a roar, and a soldier took the lead in dispatching.
He stepped forward quickly. Even though he was wearing heavy armor, his running speed was not satisfactory at all, and he even whirled like a wind.
The fierce soldier waved the sword with a cold light in his hand and slashed diagonally towards the "evil ghost"'s chest.
The reason why the opponent's head was not taken directly was mainly because the two bone spurs protruding from the opponent's shoulders would hinder the sword.
This fierce soldier who was the first to take action had also participated in several battles, large and small. Counting this massacre, he had killed more than twenty people.
Fighting on the battlefield also made his fighting skills continue to improve.
At this moment, the "evil ghost" did not react at an extremely fast speed like before.
The warrior's sword was supposed to fall on his chest, but before it fell, it suddenly turned around and flicked it upwards!
It turned out that this tough soldier had the intention of changing his tactics this time.
If the opponent dodges, you can pursue it if you advance, and you can escape if you retreat. ζΘν Dou Reading
If he refuses to retreat or evade like this, he only needs to turn his wrist to wipe the sword towards the opponent's throat.
This seemed to be an understatement of the sword, but in fact it was a skill added when the warrior turned his wrist.
Just wipe the opponent's exposed neck with one knife, and everything except the cervical vertebrae will be cut off by the sharp tip of the sword.
Moreover, when this warrior changed his moves, he also deliberately increased his speed. This lightning-like sword attack was extremely difficult to guard against.
However, the enemies he faced were not ordinary humans.
Just before the tip of the cold knife was about to touch his throat, the body of the "evil ghost" suddenly floated backwards in an extremely weird posture!
From the powerful soldier taking action, to changing his moves, to the "evil ghost" flying backwards, everything happened in just a split second.
All the soldiers saw the warrior cut the air with one sword, and the figure of the "evil ghost" immediately lifted its feet from the ground and floated towards the rear.
At this time, the "evil ghost" had already been surrounded. Behind him, the other two warriors who had just followed the sword-drawing soldiers forward decisively drew their swords and stabbed him in the back!
The warrior who had taken action earlier missed the target and did not retreat immediately. Instead, he took two steps forward and stabbed instead.
Under such a pincer attack, no matter whether the "evil ghost" retreats or advances, he will eventually face the sword in their hands.
As expected, this "evil ghost" seemed to have eyes from behind. Just when the tips of the two swords were about to pierce his back, they floated forward again.
The warrior who took action first had a cruel smile on his face.
The sword in his hand passed over the "Evil Ghost"'s left shoulder, just between the sharp thorn on his shoulder and his head. He turned his wrist and slashed across the opponent's neck again.
With the strength of this warrior's wrist, he was absolutely sure that he could chop off the opponent's head with one strike like this. However, at this moment, the head of the "evil ghost" followed in a very strange way. The blade moved until the body was almost parallel to the ground.
The soldier's sword missed again, but he saw the "evil ghost" in front of him, his body already bent at a 90° angle.
It is not easy for a normal human being to bend sideways to reach this angle, but the opponent is obviously not a human being, and the few warriors did not make a fuss because of his actions.
Behind him, the two warriors who had previously raised their swords to stab him came closer and slashed their swords from top to bottom, trying to cut off the "evil ghost"'s curved body.
The warrior who was the first to take action, although his sword missed, reacted very quickly. At this moment, he suddenly flew up and kicked the "evil ghost" in the abdomen.
His original idea was to kick the opponent so that his body would fly backwards toward the two warriors behind him, just in time to catch up with the swords in their hands.
With his foot power that he has been running all year round, it is not difficult to knock an adult away with one kick.
However, when his foot landed on the opponent, the warrior's expression changed on the spot.
Because he felt as if his leg had been kicked into a stone block, and a sharp pain immediately shot through his leg.
At the same time, the swords in the hands of the two warriors at the rear also struck the "evil ghost".
The sound of gold and iron clashing was heard, and sparks flew everywhere!
Two finely forged combat knives were broken on the spot.
The warrior who took the first shot staggered back a few steps and fell to the ground on his back.
His calf showed a disharmonious bend. It was obvious that the calf bone had been fractured by the previous kick. The "evil ghost"'s bent body suddenly bounced up, and then his arms were flat, like a top, and he spun on the spot.
One circle.
The surrounding soldiers could clearly see that when he raised his arm, the dark nails on the tips of his five fingers, which were originally only half an inch long, suddenly swelled.
As it rotated, its sharp dagger-like nails slashed across the throats of the two soldiers behind it.
Two big heads fell on the spot, with blood flowing profusely from the fractures!
It was only at this moment that the fierce soldier who had taken action before and the other soldiers around him finally understood that the "evil ghost" who had retreated and avoided just now was just deliberately performing to tease them.
With his body strong enough to break a sword, there was no need to dodge their attacks.
The "evil ghost" stopped spinning, and a strange smile appeared on its skeleton-like face, as if it was mocking the ignorance of the surrounding soldiers.
I don't know who it was, but it was the first person to roar.
This is not a roar before a battle, but to release fear.
Then, a soldier suddenly threw out his sword, turned around and ran away.
Since the sword in his hand cannot hurt the opponent, continuing to fight will only increase casualties.
Moreover, the scene just now convinced these soldiers that the "evil ghost" in front of them was something extraordinary.
Not only can he appear in broad daylight, he can even ignore the sword attack.
Some well-informed soldiers, seeing this situation, have thought of the zombies bred in the legendary corpse-raising place where Yin energy condenses.
However, the legendary zombie's body was stiff, and the "evil ghost" that appeared in front of them not only had agile movements, but could even bend various parts of the body at will. Unlike the zombie described in the legend, in addition to being invulnerable,
