Chapter 297 Blood Hair and the Gardener
Without external influence, it would be almost impossible for rabbits and wolves, their natural enemies, to stand together peacefully.
But these creatures gathered in the forest at this time broke this common sense. Orcs, elves, trolls and humans stood together peacefully, which is almost impossible to happen in normal times.
However, everything happens for a reason, and something like this that is unlikely to happen in ordinary times naturally has its reason.
If you carefully observe these creatures standing in the forest, you will find that these creatures appearing in the forest obviously do not look like living creatures, and many of them even have fatal injuries and distortions on their bodies.
In addition, these creatures that appear in the woods seem to have some foreign objects in their bodies.
Along with the movement of these foreign objects, the skin on the bodies of these forest creatures will squirm in very unnatural ways.
And right in the center of this group of strange creatures in the forest, there are three humans who are dressed completely different from the original residents of Middle-earth and are talking to each other. The three of them are also the only three normal creatures in the forest.
And the two men and one woman who were talking in the forest surrounded by 'statues' were the space executors who had also entered this mission world.
If Yang Pan were here, he would have discovered that the woman among the three people who appeared in the forest at this time was the "Shadow Widow", the intermediate space executor who cut off one of her arms and escaped after a sneak attack on him.
One of the three men, a slender man with long blood-colored hair, was leaning against a big tree, playing with a blood-red ball suspended in his palm, and said in a very lazy voice, "
You two, why did you call me here so late at night just to see the scenery? I'm very busy and don't have much time to waste."
After hearing the strange man's words, anger immediately appeared on the face of the widow. She seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the man's words.
"Xuefa, we hired you not to listen to your complaints. Just shut your mouth and wait for orders." Shadow Widow glared at the blood-haired man and said to him in a tone full of malice.
The arm that was cut off when Shadow Widow fought with Yang Pan has been reconnected at this time. However, judging from the shape and skin color of the arm, it is not her original product, but more like a transplant from someone else.
Came here.
Perhaps because of the transplanted arm, when the Shadow Widow moved her body, the arm always looked a little unnatural, and there would also be faint, strange squirming under the skin of the arm like the surrounding 'statues'.
In addition, many vines like black tree roots grew at the joints of her broken arms, and her broken arms were connected together by these strange plants.
Regarding Shadow Widow's malicious words, the executioner whom she called the Blood-Haired snorted disdainfully, "Two people left and one person came back, and one of his arms was cut off. You are so majestic.
.”
"What did you say!"
After hearing Xuefa's words, Shadow Widow immediately became angry. She directly took out her weapon and pointed it at Xuefa, assuming an attack stance, and a very ominous black energy began to emerge from her body.
Originally, Shadow Widow was still worried about the fact that Poison Fire was killed and her arm was cut off.
Saying it in such a mocking tone was like adding a handful of salt to her wounds.
The Xuefa on the other side also stood up from the big tree leaning on the tree after Shadow Widow assumed an attack stance, "Oh, Shadow Widow, don't you want to start a war with me, a hired auxiliary? I
So scared."
Although he said this, there was no hint of fear in Xuefa's tone, and his tone even contained a bit of ridicule and disdain.
At the same time, blood thorns began to grow on the surface of the blood ball suspended in the blood-haired hand, and the entire round blood ball gradually turned into a ferocious blood thorn ball.
A light red bloody mist gradually surrounded Xuefa, and his long bright red hair began to gradually lengthen, and began to swing freely in the air as if it was alive, without wind.
Just when the smell of gunpowder smoke between Xuefa and Shadow Widow was getting thicker and a fight was about to happen at any time, a very hoarse voice suddenly came out.
"Okay, both of you, stop it. Now is not the time for internal strife. If you have any conflicts, you can resolve them after the mission is over."
Hearing these words, Xuefa and Shadow Widow temporarily stopped their confrontation and turned their attention to the direction of the sound, the third executor in the forest.
The third executor was seen to be tall, wearing a gray cloak covered with mud and cobwebs, holding a pale bone shovel entwined with strange plant roots, and exuding a strange undead-like aura.
This strange figure in a cloak is the leader of their temporary team of intermediate executors, the cemetery gardener.
In addition to the cemetery gardener, Xuefa and Shadow Widow who were present, and the executor Poison Fire who had been killed by Yang Pan were all members of this temporary team.
Following the captain's words from the cemetery gardener, Xuefa and Shadow Widow, who were originally tit for tat, had to temporarily suppress their anger.
Although the two of them are relatively well-known among mid-level executors, their strength and reputation are far inferior to that of the captain who wields the power of death.
Now that the powerful captain has spoken, Xuefa and Shadow Widow naturally have to give the captain some face.
In fact, the two of them had no intention of actually taking action, because it was meaningless, and the words of the captain's cemetery gardener gave them a step down.
Seeing that the two people were quiet, the tall cemetery gardener walked between them carrying his huge bone shovel.
"No matter what conflicts you two have, please restrain yourself. If you interfere with my mission, don't blame me for being rude."
After saying that, the cemetery gardener thrust the huge shovel into the ground, and a faint black ripple spread out from under his feet.
After the motionless 'statues' in the forest touched this black ripple, the foreign objects in their bodies suddenly began to squirm violently, and a faint black air gradually emitted from their bodies.
Then these 'statues', like clockwork dolls, moved in a stiff and strange posture, and soon they surrounded the two people, Xuefa and Shadow Widow, in the center.
Just being stared at directly by those pairs of dead and lifeless eyes, even with bloody hair and shadow
The two mid-level executors, Widow, who had seen big scenes, couldn't help but feel a little hairy.
Seeing that the captain, the cemetery gardener, was really angry, Xuefa and Shadow Widow wisely gave in.
The Shadow Widow put away the two backup weapons she had temporarily used because her main weapons were lost, and then bowed her head to the gardener to show her submission.
The blood-haired man on the side waved away the bloody thorn ball on his hand, and the long blood-colored hair flying in the air returned to its original shape and fell back to his back.
After returning to normal, Xuefa raised his hands in a somewhat ridiculous surrender gesture.
"Don't be angry, Captain Gardener. I'm just a medical assistant hired by you. I can't stand the torture of your corpse implant toys."
While talking, Xuefa also pretended to have a very scared expression, but one person could tell that he was just pretending.
Although Xuefa claimed to be a hired medical assistant, he was only a little wary of the seemingly powerful cemetery gardener, rather than very afraid.
In fact, Xuefa knew very well that he could not defeat the cemetery gardener head-on, but with his ability, it would not be easy for him to kill him.
Moreover, although the relationship between them seems a bit unstable, they are true allies who signed a space employment contract before performing the mission, rather than a superior-subordinate relationship like the Shadow Widow and the Cemetery Gardener.
Bound by a space contract, if either of them takes the initiative to do something detrimental to the other, they will receive severe punishment from the space.
It is precisely because of this that although Xuefa is afraid of the power of the cemetery gardener, he dares to joke playfully in front of the other party and is not afraid that the other party will take the initiative.
The cemetery gardener on the other side obviously knew this, but he was also obviously very dissatisfied with the irregular attitude of the temporary ally he hired.
As the cemetery gardener's hand holding the giant bone shovel tightened slightly, the 'statues' in the forest, which the blood-haired people called corpse implants, suddenly made new movements.
The eyes of those corpse implants that looked like puppet statues suddenly lit up with a strange green light, and the foreign objects in their bodies began to squirm crazily. Even some corpse implants with low body strength had their skin torn apart.
, revealing the foreign object parasitizing it, a strange plant that looks like black roots.
As changes occur, whether they are corpse implants in the form of humanoids, animals or even monsters, their originally stiff and dull faces begin to gradually become ferocious and crazy.
Plant roots emitting black energy burst out of the body, dancing in the air with claws and fangs, just like the tentacles of an evil creature, which was both weird and terrifying.
Due to the influence of the cemetery gardener, all the corpse plants entered a violent state.
However, it was not just the corpse implant that was affected by the cemetery gardener. Shadow Widow, who was also a mid-level executor, was also sweating profusely, covering her alien arm that was cut off by Yang Pan and transplanted again.
