Chapter 70 (1/2)
The wolf idol was destroyed so easily?
Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t believe his eyes, but it really was so. The wolf idol in the middle of the hall was easily shattered, not even a shard was left behind.
“What happened?”
“How did the idol break?”
“Who are you people!”
The residents of Hundred Ghosts Village who came to repay their wishes were shocked. They all saw the idol suddenly shatter before them, as well as Xiao Tangqiu’s group who were trespassing outsiders, and all of them immediately became vigilant.
The idol broke!
Xiao Tangqiu clenched the weapon in his hand and waited nervously for a while… but nothing happened.
At least nothing he imagined happened.
…What’s the situation?
The god idol was broken, but the “mountain god” was not angry. They were just surrounded by angry Hundred Ghosts Village residents. The mob was enraged and the situation was on the verge of exploding.
Although Xiao Tangqiu had been besieging zombies, he had never been besieged by so many humans. He couldn’t help but feel helpless and turned his head to ask Xue Junli, “What should we do now?”
Xue Junli’s eyes darkened, “Slaughter a path out, talk after we make it out.”
Xiao Tangqiu felt a bit uncomfortable. He was naturally unrelenting in killing zombies, but these Hundred Ghosts Village residents at least look human…
Duan Hongzhen sneered and directly began making his moves. The throwing knives in his hands were shot out and the fiercest people who rushed to the front were immediately pierced. The attacking mob saw this and took large steps back in fear. Although they were temporarily pushed back, they still glared at Xiao Tangqiu’s group.
Among the couple of people who were cut, there was hedgehog-head whom they previously met. But hedgehog-head obviously didn’t recognize them now — or more accurately, didn’t know them yet. He viciously glared at the foreign intruders like a regular delinquent.
Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously sought the young couple in the crowd and soon found them at the edge of the crowd. Even if the young man was young and vigorous, he couldn’t rush to the front while taking care of his pregnant wife. The couple were squeezed to the edge by the angry crowd and their situation was actually worse. Although the young man desperately tried to protect his wife, she was still jostled by the crowd.
At this moment, the wife suddenly fell down.
Xiao Tangqiu’s heart jumped. Without knowing why, he had a bad premonition.
It wasn’t just bad, it’s very bad.
At this moment, Kisaragi’s expression changed, and her poker face showed a trace of fear, “The Mountain God…The Mountain God is angry!”
Right then, they were surrounded by the angry mob and had left the main hall and arrived outside. The night was still deep and within the night, hundreds of pairs of red eyes had appeared.
Xiao Tangqiu took a closer look and was shocked. The wolf statues outside had come to life! Their stone bodies slowly swelled and enlarged in the night, and red light emitted from their hollow eyes, and they came to life!
Compared with ordinary wolves, the animated stone wolves were more like zombie wolves. They seemed to be irrational and crazed, roaring and instinctively rushing towards everyone with the desire to consume!
But they didn’t just target Xiao Tangqiu’s group, they even went after the Hundred Ghosts Village residents who had devoutly worshiped them. Those residents were ecstatic at first, thinking that the mountain god who had been protecting them had appeared. But when they watched a few companions being bitten to death, they became shocked and dumbfounded. A few with fast reactions quickly turned and ran away.
“Mountain god! We have been devoutly worshiping…” Before that person could finish his words, he was torn in half by a stone wolf.
Those wolf statues had all turned into bloodthirsty stone wolves. Now those with strong faith did not dare to stay and fled in fright.
Xiao Tangqiu looked at the Miko and saw that Kisaragi was motionless, her gaze solemn and holding the longsword in her hand. As a Miko of the shrine, she naturally couldn’t go against the mountain god she worshiped devoutly… even if the mountain god had changed.
The others did not have Kisaragi’s concerns. They did not hesitate to take up their weapons to fight back. As soon as they started making their moves, they discovered an abnormality; these stone wolves were too strong! Those zombies before were simply incomparable!
These stone wolves not only possessed extremely strong fighting power, they also had extremely strong vitality. Duan Hongzhen fought one for a long time before finally killing one. However, within a few seconds of falling down, the stone wolf got up again!
Xue Junli immediately made a judgment, “It’s a low-level demon!”
