On the edge of the turbid water pool, Tina and Christina were riding on top of the dragon, looking nervously ahead.
Zhuoma led the manticore and followed Jia Zhengjin.
Perrin squatted by the pool, searching very carefully for any clues.
After a long time, she slowly spoke: "The zombie entered the pool from over there, and then fought with some kind of creature in the water!"
"Can this be seen?" Jia Zhengjin couldn't believe it.
"Look at those aquatic plants, they turned into this shape after being crushed. And the creatures that were crushed will not be very small!" Pelin said seriously pointing to the twisting aquatic plants in the water, "Leaning
The surface is very irregular, indicating that the monster was writhing at that time!"
"Perrin is so awesome!" Tina couldn't help but praise, "I really didn't know you had such ability?"
Peilin nodded to her, lowered his head expressionlessly and continued to check: "There are no footprints here, but there is a strange mud road. Preliminary estimation is that the monster in the beach is a kind of legless reptile!"
"A legless reptile?" Jia Zhengjin looked confused, "Snake?"
"Snake is also one of them!" Perrin nodded. "There are no zombie footprints, and we can't find any zombies in the beach, which means it was swallowed by this creature!"
"Been eaten? Then there's no need to look for it, right?" Zhuoma muttered.
"No!" Jia Zhengjin frowned and shook his head, "Have you forgotten the huge corpse we saw before?"
"Lord Keen, what do you mean?"
"Obviously, although this zombie was eaten, it could not be digested! And it will not die, and may even eat the other person in turn!" Jia Zhengjin speculated.
"Hey? Is this possible?" Tina turned to Christina doubtfully.
"I'm not very clear either!" After all, it was her first time going out, so Christina seriously lacked experience in this area. Moreover, her teacher had never taught her any knowledge in this area.
"No matter what, we must make sure that zombies cannot endanger the safety of the city!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Pelin, can you find where the legless reptile went?"
"This is more obvious!" Peilin nodded and led the way. Although some places did not leave too obvious traces, she could quickly find very hidden clues.
The group of people chased for a while, and then Perrin suddenly reached out and made a stop motion. Then she turned around in a circle, squatted down and took a closer look, then turned to the right and walked away.
Jia Zhengjin followed her, tensed up, fearing that some alien creature would suddenly appear. Especially the piranha that looked normal in appearance, but would sneak up and eat people.
Fortunately, the journey was considered safe and we haven't encountered any yet.
"Look!" After rushing for a while, Peilin suddenly pointed ahead.
Jia Zhengjin looked up and saw a huge corpse of an alien creature not far away. The skeleton looked like something like a giant python. And next to the skeleton, there was also a pool of black, disgusting, and smelly corpses.
blood.
"Ugh!!" Tina and Christina saw such a scene for the first time, and the disgusting smell also made their faces change color. They all looked like they wanted to vomit, and they quickly covered their mouths and turned their heads away.
Dare to look.
Compared to them, Perrin seemed much calmer. However, she was expressionless: "There are footprints here, and the footprints seem to be getting bigger. Preliminary speculation is that zombies can continue to grow in size by eating!"
"I remember!" Christina said after hearing this, holding back vomiting, "I once saw a similar description in the bishop's notes. There is a kind of undead creature called greedy zombies. They are similar to ordinary zombies.
Big difference! Ordinary zombies will die completely if attacked on the head. Greedy zombies will die if attacked on the head, but as long as the foreign objects are pulled out, they will be resurrected! And this kind of zombies can eat fresh food.
It uses flesh and blood to quickly restore itself, and can even evolve continuously while eating! The stronger the creature being eaten, the faster the greedy zombie evolves! The most powerful greedy zombie can even evolve into a nightmare messenger!"
"Nightmare Messenger?" Jia Zhengjin looked confused, "What is the Nightmare Messenger?"
"Nightmare Messengers are the ultimate evolution of greedy zombies. They have very high intelligence and can think like normal humans. They can also feel the fear emitted by humans, and use this emotion to forcibly change the target's dreams, and deal with it.
It controls! Historical records say that there once was a great warrior in the Xiongfeng Empire, who was almost invincible in the world. But he unfortunately met the Nightmare Messenger, and turned into a thoughtless puppet, following the Nightmare Messenger in various countries.
Wreaking havoc and endangering the common people!" Christina said seriously, "Later, all countries united and sent the strongest men from each major church to encircle and suppress the nightmare messenger. After more than 300 powerful priests were sacrificed, they finally succeeded!"
"So terrifying?" Jia Zhengjin was shocked. He really didn't expect that Alex, whom he didn't care about at all, would turn into such a monster. If he had known that no matter how sleepy or tired he was that night, he would have burned his body first.
!
But regretting was useless, so he hurriedly asked: "How long will it take for the greedy zombie to turn into the nightmare messenger?"
"It depends on how many creatures it swallows and how strong it is!" Christina replied, "But it is said that the fastest formation of the nightmare messenger will take at least one or two years!"
"That means we have a chance to completely eliminate it before it takes full shape?" Jia Zhengjin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Theoretically, this should be true!" Christina replied.
"Did you hear that, Perrin? We have to hurry up," Jia Zhengjin said hurriedly, "Hurry up and help me find the zombies. We have to eliminate them this morning!"
"Leave it to me!" Perrin nodded and said, then squatted down and began to carefully examine the clues.
"Christina, are you sure it will take at least one or two years for the greedy zombie to turn into the nightmare messenger?" Jia Zhengjin was slightly worried.
"That's what the bishop's notes say." Christina replied, "The greedy zombies will continue to eat and will never stop. But the early greedy zombies have no intelligence and will only follow their instincts and wander around. And as long as they are blocked
They will attack with their mutated claws no matter what is blocking them!"
"Ah~ so that day it scratched the city wall!" Jia Zhengjin suddenly realized, "And along the way, there were many inexplicably broken trees and rocks."
