”Shit, lots of zombies are heading in our direction. They seem to be following this Corpse General's order!” yelled A Li.
”Don't panic; A Xing, A Li, you two handle the zombies,” said the black silk woman Meng'e.
Her hair was soaking wet from the rain. Even her black veil had almost fallen off from her attractive face.
Everyone thought they would never have the chance to see her face because of the veil, yet she did not seem to be bothered. She tore the veil off and threw it to the ground, revealing a jade-white, perfect face...
It did not turn out to be a full western face. Without taking a closer look, it did not have any huge difference compared to the looks of an Eastern woman, but her eyes were glittering like stars. Her eyelashes, with raindrops dangling at the edges, were extraordinarily attractive!
Mo Fan had long dreamt of seeing her face, and his wish had just come true, yet since the filthy Corpse General, serving as a great contrast to the woman's beauty, was standing right before them, he had no time to indulge in her gorgeous looks...
Meng'e seemed to know Mo Fan's strength. After sending her two subordinates to handle the zombies, she quickly went up to Mo Fan and Liu Ru and said firmly, ”We'll deal with it together!”
”Run, run you fools, there's no way you can fight against a Giant Corpse General!” Shorty still showed a slight bit of conscience by not running for his life straightaway.
Shorty had spent years in the Ancient Capital. He was well aware of how terrifying a Corpse General was.
Most Undead were Servant-class, yet even a team of Intermediate Magicians could easily be overwhelmed by their numbers.
However, agitating a Corpse General was closer to a death sentence. The Corpse General could summon all the Undead within a kilometer to it. Even if they were able to kill several hundred Undead, there was no way they could hold off thousands of zombies rushing toward them like a surging current.
A Corpse General would be a nightmare for Intermediate Magicians, let alone this Giant Corpse General before them that had been nurtured by the Land of the Undead for decades!
Normally, only Advanced Magicians could handle a Giant Corpse General. Even a team consisting of the elites among Intermediate Magicians would be wiped out too!
”The whole place is filled with Undead. The rain has cut off the route we're taking. We have nowhere to run to either, it will only be a matter of time until we're caught. It's almost dawn, let's hold them off until then...” said Mo Fan.
Meng'e shared the same thought as Mo Fan. Running was meaningless in a situation like this. Not only was the Giant Corpse General enormous, its speed was incredible, too. A single roar would attract the Undead in the surroundings to intercept them. There was no way they could possibly escape from the creature.
The only choice was to eliminate the Giant Corpse General before a vast number of Undead arrived!
”Liu Ru, lure the zombies in that direction away,” said Mo Fan to Liu Ru after casting a glance in a certain direction in the rain.
Liu Ru nodded. She quickly disappeared into the rain.
”Can she handle it?” said the muscular man in astonishment when he saw the seemingly weak woman charging in the direction of the Undead by herself.
”Don't worry, she's not as weak as you have imagined,” said Mo Fan.
It was likely that Liu Ru's current strength was stronger than the vampire Nie Dong. When she had first turned into a vampire, she was able to inflict serious damage to Nie Dong. Now that she had gotten used to the power, these zombies stood no chance against her!
Besides, even if she were overwhelmed by the zombies, the Undead would stop attacking her once she withdrew her presence. Strictly speaking, the breath she exhaled was not living, either.
”Come, come keep me company!” The Hatchet Corpse General's hideous face twisted. The words it uttered sent a chill down everyone's spine.
