"Hiss~~~~~"

A skinny, gray-white hand protruded from the corrupted soil of the Land of the Dead, and a corpse with empty eyes and white maggots crawling out of its dislocated mouth crawled out.

During the day, the undead are unwilling to move. They are afraid of the sun. The light will dissipate the dead air that they rely on for survival, causing them to fall into a state of "hypoxia".

Exposing oneself to the sun for a long time is tantamount to seeking death. First, it is the surrounding death energy, and then their own corpse energy. The dissipation of the corpse energy is the death of the undead.

Sunlight will burn their rotting and stinky corpses like fire. In fact, most dark creatures are afraid of sunlight, and they will only be active on dark, rainy days.

The sky is now obscured by a huge cloud, and light cannot reach the surface. The existence of shadows allows the death energy in the black soil to brew, and some hungry and thirsty undead come to the surface to look for food.

The opportunity is fleeting, and the clouds drift very quickly. Even a large cloud that spreads nearly a kilometer will move quickly. Then the sun will shine directly, causing the thin dead air on the surface to dissipate.

The rotten corpse ran quickly on all fours, rushing towards a corpse with only meat residue left. Some of the white maggots in the mouth even fell to the ground, struggling and flopping.

"Kacha kacha~~~~~"

Although its palms are as skinny as wood, they are as sharp and powerful as iron hooks, and they can easily tear apart the bones and joints connected by ligaments and tendons.

Its black tongue is densely covered with a layer of tiny fleshy spines, which makes it easier for it to lick the shallow minced meat close to the bones, and the slightly complete pieces of meat are torn off by its slender fingers and thrown into its mouth.

Its mouth is full of yellow teeth, and the surface enamel is made of hydroxyapatite, which is the hardest special tissue in the body.

Especially after long-term watering of dead air, although the muscles and skin rot and decompose, the bones, teeth and some of the bonds that maintain the bones and joints are preserved and strengthened.

Those hard bones were broken into pieces by its hard teeth, and it effortlessly spit out those tiny bone fragments and devoured the marrow inside.

"Hufufu~~~~~"

A strong wind blew by, and the undead body was shaken. Although it could not understand the complex weather changes, it knew that the clouds above its head were about to move.

Without shelter, it would be like a fish in a dry pool, exposed to the blazing sun. If it didn't return to the ground to seek shelter, it would be dead.

Tens of seconds were enough for the hungry carrion to eat the remaining meat residue on the bones and some bone marrow.

Although it is still hungry and thirsty, it knows to weigh the pros and cons. Only by living can there be hope. Now it must return to the soil.

"Hufufu~~~~~"

Half a minute after the rotten corpse dived into the ground, a huge and thick foot stepped on the surface of the soil where it was sleeping, leaving a huge deep pit.

The behemoth Xilong with cyan scales gallops on the flat black land, and its thick and powerful tail allows it to maintain balance during movement.

As long as it sees an area where bones are piled up, it will adjust its direction in time to prevent those bones from hindering its progress.

In areas where there are sporadic undead outcrops, it will fly directly over their heads without any scruples. If those undead happen to appear at its foothold, their heads will be crushed and their brains will burst.

Xu Qing's current traveling speed is not worth mentioning compared to it running at full speed, but it is better than being safe, because there are six big men on its back, and if it runs too fast, they will be thrown to the ground.

It has to be said that sitting on its back is not as comfortable as a car seat. Its back is relatively arched and has a certain slope, and the scales on its surface are relatively smooth and difficult to grasp.

If it hadn't been for my sudden growth in size during this period, it would have been impossible to transform the original two-seater minivan into a small bus capable of carrying six people.

Xu Qing, a green-armored dragon, walked in his place, and six men crawled on its back to discuss the next strategy.

"According to our current traveling speed, we may be able to reach the orange-red handover area before sunset, provided that we are not besieged by the undead on the way..."

Chen Lei took out a map and laid it on the broad back of Xu Qing, the blue-armored Xilong. The six of them looked at the map together. He pointed at the team's destination and said.

"It's not okay to rush forward in a hurry. Even if we can get to the destination, we still have to face the endless threats of the undead in the dark night. There is no guarantee that there will not be some special undead..."

Pu Xun looked up at the sky with a solemn expression.

"Moreover, it looks like there will be a heavy rain tonight. Try to avoid staying in flat areas. We will be quite passive on the muddy land. Even with Qin Damao's earth magic, the undead in the rainy night are extremely ferocious...

"

The rainy season in the ancient capital Xi'an is from July to September, with July and September being the two obvious rainfall peaks.

The average annual precipitation in Xi'an is 558 to 750 mm, increasing from north to south. It changes every year, and it is difficult to estimate the specific time.

This year's rainy season has relatively abundant rainfall, and some deeply buried graves of the undead may also be washed away and soaked by the rain, and the dangerous undead sleeping in them may be revived.

"Cumulonimbus clouds have already appeared in the sky. I looked at the latest weather forecast. As expected, the rainy season is coming. We must avoid activities on rainy nights and get to shelters as soon as possible. Local rainfall may occur within 2 hours, and then soon

It will spread..."

Duan Hu, who had a scar on his face, looked at the increasingly larger clouds and used his fingers to indicate the area of ​​the clouds.

Cumulonimbus clouds are also called thunderstorm clouds, which are a type of cumulus clouds. Cumulus clouds are formed due to the adiabatic cooling of air in the form of convective movement, which saturates and condenses water vapor. As long as the atmosphere is unstable and there is enough water vapor, the airflow will

The descent and climb will intensify the brewing of heavy rain.

Cumulonimbus clouds are dense and thick, and the clouds are as large as towering mountains and are shaped like steamed buns. There are updrafts in them, making the shape like a steamed bun with a flat bottom and a protruding top.

Cumulonimbus clouds often produce thunderstorms, showers, or drooping rain (snow) flags. Sometimes they produce squalls or hail, and occasionally tornadoes occur at the cloud base.

In order to deal with various emergencies, hunters like Duan Hu not only learned how to save mana for a protracted war, but also learned about climate, geology, medical first aid, wilderness survival, and the characteristics of different types of undead. There were mountains of related books.

In order to survive, they must force themselves to become all-round hunters who are proficient in all kinds of knowledge. For them, knowledge is power and is universal.

"It's best to camp in the Yanchi area first. It's close to the Qinling Mountains. Some demons will build nests in caves on the hills. We can repair them there. As soon as the night is over and the day comes, we will hit the road..."

Pu Xun pointed to a place between the ancient capital and the destination and said that they were still in the orange zone and would encounter sudden attacks by some undead and had to slow down.

Especially when heavy rains are coming and without the shock of sunlight, the undead lurking underground will crawl out to hunt without even entering the dark night.

With the speed of Xu Qing, the Azure-armored Xilong, it was not a problem to reach the salt pond before dark. However, Chen Lei and the others estimated the time and decided to stay for a while when they encountered a small group of undead.

"There is a kind of crystal in the body of the undead that can quickly replenish the magic energy of the mage. When we do not encounter large-scale undead, we can selectively collect some backup. Merely relying on meditation is far from enough..."

The six of them, Chen Lei, jumped off the back of Xu Qing, the blue-armored Xilong, and stretched their somewhat stiff legs.

The blue-armored Xilong is covered with invulnerable hard scales and is definitely a powerful fighter, but it is definitely not easy to carry war beasts like those sky eagles and demon wolves. After sitting on its back for a long time, its butt hurts and its legs are a little numb.

"When encountering the undead, fight quickly, but don't use powerful magic. Only when the corpses are relatively intact can we collect their undead crystals..."

The undead wandering nearby smelled the scent of living people, and they all rushed over. Chen Lei's expression remained unchanged. A dark green star trail was connected to his hand, and a cloud of highly toxic gas spread out, and was surrounded by the undead corpse soldiers.

Inhaled into the abdomen.

"The captain's primary and secondary magic - Tuna, the poisonous mist slave-level undead are difficult to resist. We all use primary magic to solve it, and then take out their crystals!"

After those undead corpse soldiers inhaled the poisonous mist, their originally fast pace stopped, and a layer of red spots appeared on their gray-white skin. Some weak undead soldiers even fell to the ground and twitched violently.

"Fire-burning bones!!!!!"

"Ice creepers - covered!!!!!"

"Vines - entangled!!!!!"

"Thunder Seal - Angry Strike!!!!!"

Xu Huang and the other four only use elementary magic. They can all achieve star trails with a single thought. The gaps between those elementary magics are very short. Under the overwhelming magic, the undead that rush towards them are vulnerable to a single blow.

The corpses of the undead were scattered all over the ground, but they were all relatively intact. They took off the daggers from their waists and cut open the bodies of the undead, took out their undead crystals, and put them in the cloth bags prepared in advance.

The undead that appeared within a hundred meters radius were swept away, and the crystals of those undead were collected.

"hurry up……"

The hunt for the undead lasted only a few minutes. A dull thunder sounded from the clouds in the sky, and Chen Lei whispered.

"Ouch~~~~"

Xu Qing leaned over and let Xu Huang and others sit on his back, and began to accelerate. The sound of thunder indicated that the positive and negative ions in the atmosphere had begun to collide violently, and a downpour was about to come.

Xu Qing ignored the undead corpse soldiers slowly crawling out and ran towards the vaguely visible mountains. Only those cliffs could protect their safety in the night.
