Chapter 64: Walking Zombies

Jade, Lei Rui and Ni PIng had become dark iron warriors and their physical abilities had risen, as they lifted the big bags to walk, it was clearly much easier and within the entire group only Ding Shan could not hold on after walking for a while.

The food that was allocated to Ding Shan were already carried by other people, she was too small and even if she walked without any burdens, she could only walk for a while.

The group were helpless and Su Yu divided his food to Zhang Zhong Mou, Zhou Bi Rong and Zhao Shi Chang to carry before lifting Ding Shan onto his back.

“Thank you big brother.” Ding Shan climbed onto Su Yu’s back and softly said.

Su Yu shook his head as he thought to himself that if she had killed a single Gnome, she would not be tired so easily.

The sky was beginning to darken and they had reached a slope, on the slope were several huge rocks and from afar it seemed as though there were several huge beasts lying there with an awe-inspiring aura.

Looking at the sky, Qin Jia Gui said: “Let’s go there and check it out. The sky is already turning dark and we should prepare to rest the night on that slope.”

Zhao Shi Chang agreed, everyone was tired as they slowly made their way up the slope, occasionally using the small trees by their sides to stabilise their bodies.

Ma Zi Ye murmured as she bitterly laughed: “Today is already the fifth day, it’s already been five days…… haven’t even taken a shower, these few days have really been unbearable.”

The smell of sweat mixed with that of blood was dense and it was to the point that no living person would go near them. It was fortunate that the smell on everyone was similar and once they got used to it, they did not mind it much. Their bodies however, were extremely uncomfortable and it was difficult to describe.

When the group of people finally reached the top of the slope and looked, they were all dazed.

Infront of the slope, there were a large pile of rocks and in the centre of the rocks there actually seemed to be a stone cave, the cave seemed deep and dark, as though a demon swallowing monster were opening its gaping mouth. The group saw this and felt a chill go down their spines.

“There seems to be a cave there……” Zhang Zhong Mou had not finished speaking when Qin Jia Gui softly interrupted: “Speak softer, everyone let’s retreat and avoid this place.”

They had initially been prepared to stay the night here but upon discovering this sinister and frightening stone cave, regardless of what frightening monster was within, Qin Jia Gui was unwilling to take the risk as he prepared to quietly bypass this area.

“Let’s go.” Su Yu agreed with Qin Jia Gui’s decision and the group silently walked past the cave, moving in a big circle as they bypassed it. Suddenly, Zhao Shi Chang and Qin Jia Gui who were leading the pack stopped as weird expressions appeared on their faces.

The group looked over and saw that not far away there were several of the strange rock piles. Between the rock piles were caves after caves, dense and numerous like that of a bee hive.

“Strange, these things…….” Zhang Zhong Mou wanted to go forward to inspect as a rustling sound could be heard from within the caves.

“Careful, could it be that this place is actually the dwelling area of Gnomes?” Qin Jia Gui immediately thought of the possibility that Gnomes lived within these caves and with so many caves before them, the number of Gnomes hidden here would be very numerous. Gnomes were the lowest tier of beast soldier, only slightly stronger than Lesser Goblins and would be much trouble for their group. As a result, Qin Jia Gui did not feel very anxious.
