Chapter 517 The Power of Muronigan
The confusing fog is rolling in, and the fog that stretches for hundreds of kilometers covers several mountainous areas. Nissen Hera stood in the gold mine valley, looking up at the sky, but all he could see with his eyes was the soft smoke-like mist: "It has been thousands of years, and the fog here is still so thick! Back then I was chased by the Kingdom's coalition forces , when I escaped here, I was able to sleep here through the haze here and escaped their harm. Haha, hehehehe..."
"Uh..." low groans came from the mouths of hundreds of miners and soldiers in the valley. They stood staggeringly in this once-inhabited area. This is the valley where the gold mine is processed. At this moment, their skin and flesh have become dead white and stiff, and their eyes have lost the look of regret. But they are not dead, they are still alive.
Hera glanced at these zombie-like people with a weird smile on her face. He lowered his head and looked at the precious ring on his finger - Muronigan Erosion. The gems on the ring seemed to be filled with red clouds and slowly fluctuated: "I will seal my soul in you." 'After so many years in the body, now I am finally standing in the human world again, despite having suffered so much. Even though I failed, I will not be discouraged and I will come back because it is you who have kept me alive for so many years and made me feel extremely powerful. As long as I have you in my hand, I will be able to make a comeback. Have infinite life and an immortal soul!”
“Whether you die! Corpses or living beings, they will all become puppets and slaves controlled by me. Muronigan Oracle allowed me to obtain the ancient undead magic, but 'you' - Muronigan Erosion, It gave me stronger mind control abilities and gave me the tools to make those lives stronger. Power!" Hera suddenly raised the ring on her hand: "Awaken, the creatures who have become my slaves, in the name of your life, become the most loyal guardian of the Muronigan Dynasty, the great Muronigan. It will give you a stronger body and more power!”
The gems on the ring lit up with a dazzling red light, and the surrounding white mist reflected the neon color in the direction of the light.
The originally lifeless and unconscious ‘people’ raised their heads one after another and looked longingly at the red light. In the red light, two phantom snakes were seen flying and intertwining. Not long after, an orange-red snake pupil suddenly opened in the light. And just as the snake's pupils opened, all the 'human' eyes trembled at the same time, turning into eyes exactly like those in the light, and then, these people began to 'mutate' one after another!
After the light passed, Hera knelt down on the ground: "Sure...sure enough, I was still too weak just a few days after recovering from the ring. Now I am still struggling to use this strength. It seems that I can't." It will be difficult for me to return to the peak state before being sealed for more than half a year to a year." He looked up at the people around him. Only less than 30% of the people and monsters had completed the mutation, and the others were lost due to mutation failure. life. However, this does not matter to him, because the corpses and souls of the dead can still be used by him.
"What was that just now? What a powerful spiritual power...!" On the mountain one kilometer away, Nilu Wei got up from the ground panting and looked in the direction of the faint red light. , nothing could be seen except the fog: "It must be... it must be that guy." When he was in the bone tomb, a dazzling red light also appeared: "Master Warlord Shank..."
Lieutenant Low Dark head Thinking: "No matter what, I can't just turn my back on Commander Shank, who was so kind to me. I must avenge him and bury his body. But what should I do now? The entire area is now It has been covered with skeletons and undead, and the soldiers, miners and monsters who died suddenly for no reason some time ago have turned into disgusting and terrifying monsters, wandering in this mountain forest."
Since he escaped from the bone tomb that day, he has tried several times to approach the center of the mining area, but he has failed because there were too many undead and skeletons blocking his way. He has been wandering in this mountain forest these days, and he was horrified to find that there was no one alive in the military camp, the miners' gathering place, and the gold mining village far outside the mining area, or in other words, there was no living normal person. Those who had been harmed by the resurrected corpses due to sudden death were like a spreading plague and turned into walking corpses. And he was followed here by the strange movements of the walking dead.
Suddenly a low roar came from behind Wei. Wei was startled and turned around to look: "Captain Brocken?"
Brocken had a look of hatred and anger on his face. He still held the evil mace that he had used for almost eight years in his hand. His appearance was no different from before, but his face looked a little worse.
"Are you okay, Captain Brocken?" the captain asked. He hadn't seen Brocken and Saxon these days, thinking that they were in danger, but now Brocken suddenly appeared in front of him intact, and he was very surprised.
However, Brocken told him with actual actions that this was not the case.
The big stick was suddenly swung down, and Wei quickly dodged on the spot: "Captain Brocken, you..."
Broken ignored Nilu Wei's words at all, and used his weapon as a high-level soldier. Fighting skills!
Niru Wei also had to fight back against his fighting skills: "Brocken has indeed been controlled by him!"
-Bang!
The muffled sound of the collision could be heard very clearly in the already dead valley, even at the foot of the mountain one kilometer away.
Hera raised her head, looked towards the direction where the sound came from, and suddenly laughed weakly: "Hehe, hehe, hehehehe... I didn't expect that there were still people 'alive'. I don't know if they came from outside or from my undead army. Escaped. However, none of this matters anymore. Now that you are here, don’t think about leaving here alive.”
……
Gold Mine Village, one room. in the house.
"Man, man, hold on, don't die!" Angelou gently tapped the side of his companion's face, trying to wake up his drowsy companion: "Hey Chloe, try your best. Treat him."
"I have. I've tried my best." Chloe wiped the sweat from her forehead, and the healing light under her hand didn't stop for a moment: "It can't work anymore, his toxin has penetrated too deep, and my detoxification magic can't suppress his toxicity. ”
"Antidote, antidote." Angelou hurriedly grabbed a handful of antidote pills from the medical bag and stuffed them into his companion's mouth: "Hold on, hold on man, you will be fine after today, you My four-year-old son is still waiting for you to bring him maltose to eat." As he spoke, Angelou couldn't help but shed tears.
“It’s not good.” Chloe trembled: “There is no trace of blood left in the liquid left in his wound!” As soon as these words came out, it was like a lightning struck Angel. Just like in his brain, a trace of blood could still flow out of the wound before, but now all that flows out is the oil-like orange-yellow liquid.
The black lips of the companion who fell to the ground trembled and he spat out all the antidote in his mouth. His face was so pale that he was no longer like a normal person. , the body has become even colder: "Sir...Sir, I Is it hopeless? Is it... is it possible that I am hopeless?"
Angelou shook his head: "No, no, you can still live, have you forgotten, Chloe detoxification? Isn’t it Chloe?”
"Yes." Chloe nodded quickly and said with tears in her eyes: "Don't worry, I will definitely save you. It's just that now... I have encountered a little problem now, but it's okay, it will be soon... very soon It'll be fine soon."
"Don't... lie to me." My companion said tremblingly: "I also learned... magic, which is the most bizarre and unpredictable element among the ten... elements. , is the poison element... as long as... As long as conditions permit, it can easily be controlled by external forces and change the nature of the poison. The antidote we brought can no longer cure the poison of the mutated 'Attila Death Ore'. ...There is no way a professional poison magician can save me."
Angelou and Chloe both gritted their teeth and said nothing, because they knew in their hearts that what their companion said was the truth.
"Sir!" The companion grabbed Angelou's arm and said with difficulty: "Bring me maltose...Give it to my son and tell him...Tell him that dad is on a business trip far away. , told him to study hard, listen...listen...listen to his mother, and tell my wife, tell her, I...I. Love her..." He said, gasping for air: "Kill me quickly, quickly...kill me Sir, for the sake of God, I don't want...I don't want to die in pain, give me... ...Give me a pleasure..."
As soon as Angelo closed his eyes, he raised the knife and dropped it, and the short knife pierced his chest.
"Sir Angelou, it's bad, there are a lot of half-human and half-monster monsters coming this way." Another companion ran over from one end of the village and said: "Chloe, how is my cousin..." Before he finished speaking, he had already seen the short knife stuck in his companion's heart.
Chloe stood up and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I've tried my best."
The companion knelt on the ground with a thud.
Angelou said with red eyes: "Killing him won't change his fate of becoming a monster, and he definitely doesn't want to become that disgusting monster. Chloe, burn him. , this is the best arrangement for him after his death."
"Yeah." A ball of fire ignited in Chloe's palm, and she looked at her companion silently for three seconds before burning the fireball.
Under the flames, the companion also stood up and asked: "What should we do now? All the gryphon mounts we brought are dead, how should we leave here?"
Chloe Said: "Now all the flying monsters above the forest have turned into monsters, we want to escape If we go out, we will definitely suffer the same fate as the griffin. And with the flying speed of our wind magic, even if we are not attacked, it will take at least three times as long as the griffin can fly out of this foggy forest, and it will not be possible for two days. Go.”
“Are you really going to leave?” Angelou said.
"Sir!" Chloe and another companion looked at him.
Angelou said: "Our closest partner and friend for more than ten years died here. Don't you want to avenge him?"
"That's right, I must avenge my cousin. He can't die here unexplained." Another companion immediately said firmly.
Chloe said: "But we only have the power of three people. What can we do?"
Angelou said: "Since we can't take revenge now, we have to figure out what happened here. What's going on? Besides, with our current situation, we can't leave here."
"What do you want to do, sir?"
Angelo held on. Weapons, looking at these two companions who have been together for many years...
