Chapter 635 The First Death
What attacked General Huang Yuan was a disgusting corpse.
This thing may have been soaked in the corpse water in the coffin for a long time. It exudes a strange smell that can no longer be described as stinky. Its facial features are almost stuck together, and only its turbid eyes reveal a strange vitality.
The corpse was wearing tattered cloth but no shoes. Its skin was gray, black, moist and translucent. The texture no longer looked like that of a human but more like that of a frog. Perhaps it was because of this strange skin that the corpse was able to climb on the cliffs and the corpse that crawled out of the coffin on the top floor did not carry any shoes.
Based on Wu Xian's experience, these corpses were not moving fast and there were so many of them that they did not seem to be high-level evil spirits. The curse that Huang Yuan would release might be able to easily kill one of the corpses.
But what worries Wu Xian is not the strength of the crawling corpses, but the movement patterns of these crawling corpses.
They climbed out from the coffin below, so why did they go around to attack everyone above? Wouldn't it be more convenient to attack directly from below?
Maybe it's the fall!
Because of the strange characteristics of the Valley of the Dead where flying and jumping are impossible, it is very easy to accidentally fall off the cliff when attacking from below. Only by climbing to the top to launch the attack will you have an advantage!
Now comes the problem.
Will the falling characteristic of the Valley of the Dead also be effective against the curses cast by relatives?
Wu Xian thought of this possibility and hurriedly spoke to stop Huang Yuanjiang, but unfortunately his words were too late and the curse had already been released.
General Huang Yuan opened his hands, and the golden aura condensed in front of his hands, forming a golden broadsword, which spun and flew towards the crawling corpse rushing towards him.
This is the 'Golden Sword Curse'!
The golden blade cut the crawling corpse's body in half like a hot knife cutting through butter, and the two halves of the body fell down along with the foul-smelling liquid inside.
If all goes well, the blade that pierces the crawler will fly out in a straight line.
But the golden knife released by General Huang Yuan actually flew out in an arc, and this arc happened to cut several ropes!
Screams rang out one after another.
Beside Huang Yuanjiang, his female companion Lan Xuan and the rock climber Yuan Buyai all had their ropes cut.
But the worst was suffered by the female college student Tang Shihan. She had three ropes cut at once. She lost her balance instantly and swayed wildly in the phosphorescent fire. Her body hit the coffin several times. She lost her mind out of extreme fear and didn't know what to do. She just let out a heart-wrenching scream...
Huang Yuanjiang's expression suddenly changed: "I didn't mean to do that. The direction I fired shouldn't have hit anyone!"
But at this time, Tang Shihan's scream was too sharp and no one could hear his explanation.
Seeing the golden knife flying by, Wu Xian's face turned pale.
This was just as he expected. The trajectory of the spell was indeed affected by the power below.
Fortunately, only the rope was cut. If the attack route was a little more crooked, then the unlucky relatives and newcomers might have been cut off.
He wanted to tell everyone the news, but found that Tang Shihan's screaming had not stopped. The hysterical screams made it impossible for everyone to communicate normally.
Wu Xian suddenly felt a headache. This Tang Shihan was not as good as Jin Shasha and other female college students from the previous blessed land. Although they could not play a positive role, at least they would not cause trouble.
Fortunately, she didn't scream for too long.
Because of her screams, a large number of crawling zombies were attracted over there!
These crawling corpses placed their feet on the coffin and stretched out their hands towards Tang Shihan's body, tearing it apart despite her screams.
The crawling corpse's facial features were all stuck together, and its lips were covered with deformed flesh and blood, so it couldn't open its mouth to bite, and their strength was not enough to tear Tang Shihan's body apart. Therefore, they could only use their nails to dig into Tang Shihan's body little by little, tearing the snow-white flesh apart, and pulling out the muscles and blood vessels inside...
As more and more crawling corpses appeared, her mouth was filled with their hands. Her eyes were filled with despair, but she couldn't even make a sound.
jump!
The only rope left on Tang Shihan's body finally broke as it couldn't bear the weight!
Her body fell into the Valley of the Dead, and some of the crawling corpses on her body also fell down with it. It was unknown when they would reach the bottom of the canyon.
At this point, the first death in this blessed land appeared.
The crawling zombies that had just gathered around Tang Shihan began to cast their turbid and cruel gazes on other people!
Wu Xian's scalp felt numb.
He now has three props for worshiping gods.
They are the immortal magic talisman and the explosive flame acceleration method. Their effect is to bless the next spell or flying magic weapon to be used. When used, they will perform three stages of explosive flame acceleration, which will greatly enhance the speed and power.
The golden bell is a precious magical instrument. When it is shaken once, there will be a loud noise. When it is shaken twice, thick smoke will be emitted. When it is shaken three times, it will spray out flames. It can be shaken ten times in total and is extremely powerful.
As well as the immortal magic weapon Sanbao Yuruyi, which can be thrown out to hurt people and is guaranteed to hit the target. Its basic power is equivalent to that of a precious spell, and can weaken the opponent's magic power by 30%. It can be thrown three times.
These three props for worshipping gods are all powerful, but they are completely useless in the current scenario!
Therefore, Wu Xian made a decisive decision.
"escape!"
Wu Xian roared and pressed the rope button frantically. The crane above received the signal, the machine started to operate on its own, and the rope began to be lowered.
Seeing this, everyone followed suit. This time they didn't bother to keep stable and just kept pressing the button.
But perhaps for safety reasons, even though everyone pressed the button so hard, the speed of the rope descending was still not fast, and it was even slower than the speed of those crawling zombies!
Therefore, the people who fell had to fight hand-to-hand with these crawling zombies.
Wu Xian pulled out the Fire Cloud Cloth and wrapped it around his hands. He pressed the button with one hand and punched the approaching crawling corpse with the other hand.
At this time, the effect of the potential of [Born Killer Embryo] began to show. With the blessing of Fire Cloud Cloth and the potential killing intent, Wu Xian's fist actually also showed some effect.
His fists could even punch through the disgusting skin of the crawling corpse, leaving the jelly-like minced meat sticking to his hands...
But that’s the extent of the effect.
The crawling zombies are already corpses, and this level of damage can only slightly slow down their progress but cannot cause effective damage.
Wu Xian didn’t know what the situation was like for the others, and he didn’t have the energy to look at them. Because of his loud roar just now, there were the most crawling zombies on his side!
Even if Wu Xian swung his arms as wide as he could, he couldn't block all the corpses. He could only watch nervously as the corpses approached step by step. One of the crawling corpses even pressed its hand on Wu Xian's face, and its fingers were gradually approaching Wu Xian's eye sockets!
At this moment, a foot suddenly jumped out from the side, kicking the crawling corpse off balance and causing it to fall off the cliff...
This person is Fan Qingyue!
