Chapter 74 Seeing the Undead!
Bang!
Another corpse fell and smashed on the pile of corpses. The corpse leaned forward toward the snow spot. Horn felt angry when he saw the skinny hand bones and his eyes dying with eyes closed.
But reason suppressed the anger. The owner of this black mine had the strength to enslave so many people, and his power would be extraordinary.
And it is almost certainly related to the Golden Orchid Chamber of Commerce, because the Golden Orchid Manor is so close to here, and people in the black mines have to eat, drink, defecate, and it is impossible for the Golden Orchid Chamber of Commerce to know nothing about it.
Suddenly, he remembered the disappearance case in Baiyancheng Wharf District, and perhaps the missing people were here.
Wait! The missing case has something to do with vampires!
The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became.
If Horn's guess is true, then even if the Obike family behind the Golden Orchid Chamber of Commerce is not vampires, they will have nothing to do with vampires.
He ordered the Snow Point to retreat, and at the same time, he analyzed in his mind that he had met two direct members of the Obike family: Wood and Mavie.
Both have fair skin, and Mavie is even more abnormally white.
In this way, the Obike family is even more suspicious.
Horn thought of Wood again, and he couldn't believe that Wood, who has good character, was a vampire.
After thinking about it, he came up with two reasonable explanations: one is that Wood has been pretending to deceive everyone, and the other is that his bloodline has not yet awakened, and he himself does not know that he is a vampire.
While Horn was analyzing the problem, the snow spots ran silently in the dark tunnel.
Suddenly, a cold feeling came from the rock wall beside it, and it felt like the biting cold wind on a winter night.
The snow spot sensed the danger, and the dark energy wrapped around the body, and the muscles burst and sprinted to escape from the danger range.
A gray shadow flew past the snow-touched tail and sank into the rock wall in the blink of an eye.
"What's it?!"
Horn opened his eyes in shock. He was distracted and just now, feeling a sense of coldness. Snow nodded and only saw a ray of gray. His thoughts were flying in his mind.
Cold, gray.
This is a characteristic of negative energy.
Being able to shuttle through rock walls means it has no entity.
Combined with the pile of corpses who died with mercy, he instantly came to the conclusion - the resentful soul!
Resentful souls are a kind of dead souls. If a wise creature is full of anger and resentment before death, and does not see the sun for many years after death, then it may become a resentful soul that hates all life.
At the same time, he also understood why those people were standing on a high place and throwing their bodies.
Horn interrupted the connection with the snow point, quickly took out the holy water from the dimensional bag and threw it to his companion: "I can't explain it, apply it on the weapon and prepare for combat."
Out of trust in their companions, everyone quickly applied the holy water to the weapon.
Before they could finish smearing, they saw snow spots running over from the cave.
At the same time, a malice cold feeling invaded from all directions, causing goosebumps on the skin.
“Back to back.”
The four of them hurriedly looked back to back and looked at the surrounding rock walls with vigilance.
Only then did Horn have time to explain, he lowered his voice: "The enemy is a resentful soul without entities. He may launch an attack from any angle. There are still unknown enemies in the distance, but they do not know our existence yet. Try not to make any sound during the battle. Now we will slowly withdraw."
When Kailin and others heard that the enemy was the most difficult undead, they couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts, but they quickly calmed down and observed the surroundings vigilantly while slowly retreating out of the cave.
Negative energy aggregates are all afraid of the sun, so they are safe as long as they go out.
Perhaps it was because of fearing the sacred energy emitted by the holy water, the resentful soul did not directly launch an attack, but wandered in the rock formations to look for opportunities.
The swaying fire shone on everyone's solemn faces, and the projection on the rock wall seemed to be a resentful spirit with teeth and claws, which could pop out at any time.
Horn opened the rune eye in his hand, and saw the wandering soul through the rock wall. It was a female face with a crowded facial features. Its body was looming in the gray mist-like energy, and its scarlet eyes were full of resentment and madness.
It's just a hell!
No, that's a hell.
Horn swallowed, and it was the first time he had seen the dead.
After everyone walked for a distance, the resentful soul finally couldn't help it, and a figure flashed over everyone's heads.
Horn felt cold on his scalp, and quickly raised the remaining half of the bottle of high-level holy water in his hand, felt the rich breath of sacred energy, and the resentful soul was scared away.
But the instinct of hating life makes it unwilling to retreat, and it continues to wander around and look for opportunities.
It found the loopholes in the defense of everyone - under their feet.
An unknown ghost hand with gray mist stretched out from the ground and grabbed the monkey's feet. The monkey jumped up quickly and avoided the ghost claws.
The ghost claw shrank back before the sword was slashed down, and Karin's sword slashed on the rock and made a little spark.
Ding ~!
The trembling sound of the sword falling from the sky was so harsh.
Horn's thoughts were like lightning. It was too passive to deal with the resentful soul in this narrow underground space. It could hide into the stone wall at any time, and he could not do anything about it.
Thinking of the narrower crypt exit, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"I'll be the bait, you guys find opportunities."
Without waiting for his companion to respond, Horn turned his back to the wall, staring at the rune eye in his palm, and his mental impact was ready to go.
But the three companions didn't know that Horn had rune eyes. They thought Horn was willing to risk his life in order to protect everyone. They were moved, and Kalyn couldn't help but burst into tears.
On the other hand, seeing the hateful living dared to turn his back to him, the resentful soul couldn't help it and rushed out of the rock wall with its teeth and claws.
Seeing that the gray ghost claw was about to catch Horn's vest, the mental shock flew out.
The essence of the resentful soul is a collection of negative emotional energy. When it is hit by a mental impact, the body is unstable, and the foggy body tends to collapse.
The three companions seized the opportunity, long swords, daggers, and arrows hit the resentful soul almost at the same time.
The holy water that Thurman gave to Horn and others for self-defense was naturally high-end goods. The sacred energy invaded the ghost's body, as if the burning red iron hit the ice. The resentful soul screamed and disappeared.
Ding ~!
A gray translucent crystal fell to the ground, and Horn couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then he thought that he and others were not out of danger.
"Go away! This is a black mine!" While picking up the gray crystal, he talked about the scene he had seen before and his guesses.
Hearing the tragic pile of corpses, Kailin and others were in anger.
Kalyn: "This Golden Orchid Chamber of Commerce is really a beast!"
Fitt: "No! It's worse than beasts!"
Monkey: "We have to report this news to the city lord and the Dawn Church."
"Let's talk about these before going back. I suspect this golden orchid merchant is related to vampires," Horn saw the light at the exit.
The group left the cave and found that the sun was at its peak, so they hurried towards Qingshi Village.
After walking for a short distance, Horn suddenly found a group of soldiers wearing standard leather armor ahead, and the sign on the chest of the soldier's leather armor was a golden orchid.
