Several weird goblin goblins were driven to explore the road. Some of the Bloody Mercenary Group were on foot, while others were walking behind with dogs and bears. The color of the sky was no longer so dark, showing a dark ink blue, which showed that the ceiling was
The dust is not that thick yet, but as time changes, it will still spread outward. It is hard to say whether there will be light in the sky by then. This is related to the fate of all mankind.
Many of the trees here are still maintaining their vitality. The color of the sky proves that there is still a little light reaching the earth, which gives the trees a chance to survive. However, the leaves are much thinner, and not many shrubs and grasses on the ground can survive.
Gotta come down.
"The Naj Valley is coming soon, and there are more and more rotten bones." A few small cars were pulling supplies. People sitting in the cars saw most of the human bones buried in the soil through the copper lamps hanging on the sides of the cars.
Some were rotted to the point of being reduced to white bones, and a disgusting smell filled the air.
A carriage wheel got stuck in the soft ground and overturned. Everyone hurriedly helped the cart up and pushed it out of the pit.
"Be careful. These four carts of grain are enough for us to eat for many days. Don't drink alcohol." Mio followed the cart and ordered. They found these carts of rice in a farmer's barn. They were lucky.
They were all eaten up by rats. Together with the nine cartloads of supplies their team brought, they could survive in the wild for a long time.
The carriage rattled by, and the corpses buried in the ground gradually came to life. Before these guys came out, everyone went up and chopped them into pieces and turned them into slag. They were used to this situation.
"What's going on? More and more dead bodies are turning into zombies." Ada looked worried. He poked a head rolling on the ground with his long knight's gun, and the flesh on the head oozed out as soon as he poked it.
The rotten liquid situation is as disgusting as possible.
"Stop it and leave quickly. It stinks here."
Ada said: "The previous zombies were controlled by the maggots of captured flies. These ones don't have maggots. And there are too many corpses here. I have encountered several piles in the past few hours."
Bimoye walked into an abandoned village under the light, and his companions responded to Ada: "There are several villages and logging camps outside the Naj Valley, and there is also a quarry in the valley. You see, most of these people are dead.
Wearing work clothes, they are all people who escaped from inside and outside the valley. Unfortunately, they still did not escape."
"No, I'm asking why these people turned into zombies?"
The short and stocky Ermuda said: "Maybe it is caused by environmental factors. I can't say for sure. I once lived in a dungeon in the land of dwarves. Some corpses were buried near the magic stone mine. If the environment changes again,
There will be situations where the corpses are controlled by evil forces. You don’t have to be afraid, they are very fragile and will not have plots like those in book stories.”
"I'm not afraid." Ada muttered, and when she saw Ermuda turning back and smiling at him, she couldn't help but say forcefully: "I'm really not afraid. Forget it if you don't believe it!"
The group of them soon passed a logging camp. Of course, there was no one there for a long time. The wood layers were covered with thick mud, which was made of fallen and dead leaves. There was a big stone outside the logging camp.
, there are several big red characters of "Taniguchi Lumber Camp" painted on it.
Thain jumped on the big rock, and just as he was about to use a small fireball to illuminate the surroundings, he heard the sound of a wooden door opening in the darkness ahead, and then several people came over.
"Hey, where are the mercenaries from?" There were six people who came. They were still saying hello, but when they saw the number of people, they all stopped.
"Hello. We are from the Bloody Mercenary Group, coming from the east." Thain jumped off the stone and went over to talk to them: "Are you workers in the lumber mill or... are you also mercenaries?"
"I am the militia of Hal Town. They are my friends and they are all mercenaries. I rarely do mercenary work, so I cannot be considered a professional mercenary." This man was a bearded man with a strong body and wore a
He was wearing a Kegel helmet, a helmet with a round head and a pointed peak. He was carrying a bamboo shield behind his back, and he had a hand ax on his waist, and his hand was holding on the ax handle: "My name is Jeff."
Scar stepped forward to identify himself and asked: "Are these the only people among you?"
"Oh no, my companions went to the valley to investigate the situation. The six of us are resting here because we were slightly injured earlier."
Scar saw that the three of them standing behind were surrounded by monsters like the Corpse Wolf. They looked very nervous and stood relatively far away.
Jeff glanced at his partners behind him and said with a forced smile: "The world is so chaotic now. Don't blame my partners for being so wary of you."
"Haha, yes, it should be." The following carriages and horses were ready one after another. When Scar saw a few of them turning around to leave, he stopped them and asked, "Will you enter the valley? Will your companions come to pick you up?"
"Of course." Jeff asked, "You want to go in with us?"
"Ah, everyone is here just for the elemental spirits, are you too?"
Jeff said: "Yes, but you are late. Before we came, people had already entered the valley, and there were quite a lot of them. So if there were water elemental spirits, they might have been captured long ago. If you don't believe me, look over there.
There are still many traces of carriages and horses on the ground.”
Thain and Luo ran over to take a look, and saw many ruts and animal hoof marks on the wide road leading to the forest. Although these marks were dried and hardened, and the marks were old and new, they were definitely not from before the catastrophe.
The ones left behind indicate that more than one person entered.
Thain came back to explain the situation, and Scar said helplessly: "I thought we came fast enough, but we were beaten to death by someone else. We've already arrived, so we can't just leave like this."
"You still want to go in? I won't stop you, because I'm afraid you will conflict with others if you go in." Jeff glanced at them and said, "Will you rob them forcefully?"
"I understand what you mean." Scar rubbed his eyebrows and turned back to ask the team members: "Our trip may have been in vain."
"Let's go into the valley and have a look." Delma was still unwilling.
Some people also said that there is no need to go in and run so far, and it is better to concentrate on searching for the Abyss of Light. Everyone was unanimously agreeing, and Ada couldn't restrain her curiosity, so she went over and asked the six people: "Do you know what's going on with the zombies nearby?
?Piles of rotting corpses, inexplicably come to life."
Dean, who also came from Ten Star City, mocked: "Ada, are you still asking them? Oh, look at these people, they all look like country bumpkins and have no knowledge or culture. What can they answer you?"
"
Ada felt that her companion was right. Just as she was about to return to the team, she heard the six people asking in a daze: "What zombie?"
Ada was also stunned and pointed outside the lumberyard: "Just outside, there are many corpses of villagers and workers in the forest. Aren't they all turned into zombies?"
The six people stared blankly with big eyes and small eyes, and suddenly their bodies began to dissipate, blurred, and soon dispersed into a white mist and disappeared before their eyes.
Everyone in the Bloody Mercenary Group was shocked. No one dared to speak loudly and looked at each other in shock.
Avro reacted and ran towards the wooden door in the direction where these people came out. He saw a weak oil lamp on the small round table in the wooden house. The bodies of six people under the table were lying on the ground. They were already dead when they looked over.
