Chapter 77: The Resurrected Corpse

Tai Lun continued: "If the kingdom doesn't send people here, Cain City won't be able to survive for a few days, and there won't be much food in the city."

As Tai Lun spoke, his eyes swept over the scruffy and thin residents sitting on the street.

Xiao Zhimiao looked at the residents who were so thin that there was almost only a skeleton left. She could faintly see the blue shadows on these residents.

"There's something wrong with them." Nan Xue whispered in Xiao Zhimiao's ear.

Xiao Zhimiao: "Did you see it too?"

Nan Xue nodded. Although her profession was an elemental mage, she was from the Dark Night camp, and her perception of the aura of death was much sharper than those from the other two camps.

As soon as she entered Kane City, she felt a faint breath of death, not only from these residents, but also from Tyran and the remaining hundred knights walking on both sides of the player.

But they look like living people.

Xiao Zhimiao directly reached out and touched the only exposed face of the knight next to him. It was still warm.

The knight who was touched looked at Xiao Zhimiao inexplicably. Xiao Zhimiao smiled and said: "You are so good-looking. Have you got a wife?"

The knight was slightly startled, with a little shyness on his face, "Not yet, but I'm sorry, I already have a girl I like, and I will marry her when I get back from Kane City."

Xiao Zhimiao: "That's such a pity."

The knight smiled at Xiao Zhimiao and put on his helmet.

Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao with complicated eyes, "Why do you even flirt with the dungeon NPC?"

Here, Nan Xue had just touched the knight's face to see if they were really alive, when she heard Xiao Zhimiao say: "Because the dungeon NPC is not responsible."

After saying that, Xiao Zhimiao and Nan Xue looked at each other and high-fived each other in tacit understanding.

Sun Yuyue shook her head and said: "Two scumbags bumped into each other."

"Most of the houses in Kane City are vacant. You can find an empty house to live in as you like. It is recommended not to live too far away, but close to our station."

The knights live in houses near the city wall in Kane City, and supplies and other supplies are concentrated in their hands.

A player asked: "Where is the lord of this city?"

Tai Lun pointed to the highest point, "The city lord has been seriously ill for a long time. He lives in the castle every day. I have only seen him once."

After saying that, Tyron led the exhausted knights back to rest and let the players do what they wanted.

Xiao Zhimiao looked at the players who were divided into several camps and were looking for houses to live in. There were so many players from different guilds, and some of them had personal grudges and competition for interests. It was unrealistic to bring them together to cooperate.

Xiao Zhimiao looked around the city of Kane. It was a medieval town, surrounded by high walls. The city lord lived in the highest castle, and the residents' houses were built in the castle.

Just now she looked at it from the outside and saw that Kane City was several times larger than Doll Town. If she wanted to find clues to pass the level from inside the city, it would be extremely difficult.

"Let's go, let's find a place to live."

Nan Xue said, leading them from the front to find a place to stay.

When Xiao Zhimiao saw four players from the Thorn Guild approaching them, he fell a few steps behind Nan Xue and the others, put his finger to his lips, and made a silencing gesture to them.

The four of them paused and followed Xiao Zhimiao slowly and quietly.

One of the girls, who looked to be in her twenties, walked up to Xiao Zhimiao and whispered: "God Lord..."

Xiao Zhimiao: "Don't call me that."

"Yes, I will call the Lord God your name outside the guild."

Xiao Zhimiao asked: "What's your name? The four of you from the Thorn Guild came in?"

Xiao Zhimiao saw that only these four were wearing Thorns Guild costumes, and Mu Yuan was not seen.

"My name is Aqil, the Lord of God...Miss Xiao, only the four of us came in."

Even though I wanted to call her by her name, she still couldn't say it.

"Miss Xiao, our Thorn Guild will absolutely obey you and follow your command."

Xiao Zhimiao saw Nan Xue and the others turning into an alley, stopped and said to the four of them: "You just have to do what you want. I have nothing to tell you. Just live a good life and get out alive."

Aqil asked: "Miss Xiao, is this an order?"

Xiao Zhimiao: "That's what you think."

"Then we obey your orders."

Xiao Zhimiao watched the four of them put their hands on their chests, lowering their heads and looking respectfully at her. She really didn't know what kind of existence Cecia was to them.

Logically speaking, they are also players. How can a person living in modern times have such a sense of obedience? Moreover, the gods they believe in should be just a shadow to them.

Because she is Scythia, before that, Scythia did not exist for them.

Xiao Zhimiao checked the faith values ​​of these four people one by one. All of them were only 10%, which was the same as her faith value. With such a low faith value, it would be difficult to pray to the gods in the dungeon.

Although Xiao Zhimiao doesn't quite understand it yet, he also knows that the obedience brought about by this fanatical belief must be some kind of embodiment of this belief, which really exists and has had a certain impact on them.

After she leaves this dungeon, she will find an opportunity to find Mu Yuan to learn about the guild and the origin of their beliefs.

Nan Xue and the others found a house not far from the knights' residence. The house was quite spacious and had three rooms, just enough to accommodate the five of them.

When Xiao Zhimiao came in, he saw the four players from the Thorn Guild entering the room next to them.

It seems that he has made up his mind to follow her.

Xiao Zhimiao randomly chose a room and was going to sleep for a while to recuperate his energy. Before he could lie down, he heard Sun Yuyue's exclamation outside.

She immediately walked out and saw Sun Yuyue coming out of the kitchen with her mouth and nose covered. After coming out, she fanned in front of her nose and said, "It's killing me!"

Xiao Zhimiao asked: "What's wrong?"

Xu Zhilan lay on the sofa and said lazily: "A dead person, what else can there be?"

Xiao Zhimiao entered the kitchen and saw a smell of corpses. An adult corpse was sitting on the edge of the stove holding a smaller corpse, with a salt shaker in his hand.

Xiao Zhimiao looked around the kitchen. The cupboards and everything were open. Except for some bowls and other items, there was no food left. Looking at the figures of the two corpses, they must have starved to death.

When Nan Xue came in and took a look, she immediately covered her nose, lit a fire in her hand and threw it at the two corpses, preparing to cremate them on the spot.

As soon as the fire was thrown on the two corpses, Xiao Zhimiao heard a crisp sound, like the crisp sound of dry firewood breaking.

It was the sound coming from the two corpses. Xiao Zhimiao and Nan Xue both stared at the two corpses and stepped back.

The next second, the two corpses opened their eyes and rushed towards them.

Xiao Zhimiao's heart skipped a beat and kicked them back.

The corpse knocked over the bowls on the stove, making a clanging sound. Xu Zhilan and others outside immediately became alert.

When the corpses rushed towards them again, Nan Xue used ice elemental skills to freeze the two corpses. The corpses fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. Nan Xue was afraid that something might happen, so she continued to use fire to burn them to ashes.

Xu Zhilan and the others ran in and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Zhimiao: "The two corpses just came alive."

"Alive?"

Sun Yuyue said in surprise: "Then this city is so big, there are not many living dead."

Xiao Zhimiao was slightly startled when he heard the words "living dead".

The city of Cain is so big. According to Tai Lun, they have been guarding this city for several months. They were surrounded by those things and couldn't get out. They couldn't find supplies, so they saw that many residents on the street were hungry.

As skinny as a stick, there are probably countless people who starve to death.

If these dead people can be resurrected and attack people, why are the residents and knights okay?

Moreover, Tyron did not mention this key information to them. He currently seems to be good and on the same side as the players.

Xu Zhilan said that there are no absolutely good NPCs in the dungeon, but they have not been revealed for the time being.

Xiao Zhimiao had reservations about this. If Tai Lun was good and didn't mention to the players that corpses would resurrect and attack people, then there was a possibility that corpses would only attack living people.

Those residents and knights may be dead, but they don't know it.

After discovering the corpse in this house, Xiao Zhimiao and others checked the inside and outside of the house again, and then returned to their rooms to rest after confirming that there was no potential danger.

It is night now, and they are going to wait for dawn before going out to have a look. When they first entered the dungeon, the players all chose to wait and see what happens. And based on the experience of the old players in the dungeon, the probability of something happening at night was too high, so they would not let it go in vain from the beginning.

.

Xiao Zhimiao went out and took a look. The whole street was empty. It was so quiet that even the slightest sound of wind could be heard. There was basically no light in the entire Kane City. Only some lights were lit near the city gate, and there were some ghost figures.

Appearing and disappearing from the dim light, the vague look is frightening. This dull atmosphere is even more eerie and terrifying than Doll Town.

Xiao Zhimiao took a few glances and was about to go into the house. When he turned around, he saw Aman coming out.

"Where are you going?" Xiao Zhimiao called to Aman.

Aman choked and said, "You are the only one who can come out and see me, but I can't?"

Tsk, this Aman is really angry and has a lot of thorns on her body, but it doesn't matter, she likes to remove thorns for people like her.

It just so happened that she also needed to explore the front alone to see what would appear.

Xiao Zhimiao leaned against the wall, looking like she was taking it easy.

Seeing that Xiao Zhimiao did not stop her, Aman raised her chin and walked out. In the past, a group of people from Shenwu Bureau took her to download the copy like a nanny. She had never seen what an advanced copy was like, and she was full of curiosity.

There were no lights in this alley, only the wall lamp hanging in front of their house was still on. After Aman walked out of the light range of their house, he took out a lighting prop and illuminated the surrounding area as bright as day.

After walking two steps, the prop in her hand suddenly disappeared. Aman paused and was about to take out another prop when a blue ghost crawled out from the ground and grabbed her feet.
