The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 328 Undead Fog

The sticky pulling sensation continued, and the gelatinous voice made people's ears tingle, as if someone gently brushed the inside of the ear canal with soft hair, and soon goose bumps would appear all over his body.

Moreover, Lin Tianci himself could not hear this sound. Within a few seconds, the sound became louder and clearer, and everyone could hear the sound like glue crawling among the gravel.

This also made everyone's expressions a bit dignified, especially Alma and Redicia. They had camped near here before, and the most dangerous situation they encountered at that time was only twenty or thirty skeletons. Although there are often undead Biological haunts, but there shouldn't be any particularly strong ones.

Misdrabi made a spell-casting gesture, as if using some kind of probing spell, and then his face changed, and he hurriedly pressed his hand on the ground.

"The Veil of the Dead."

With a low shout, the obscure magical aura formed a circle around the camp where everyone was camping, like some kind of protective shield.

Lin Tianci was a little curious and wanted to reach out to touch it, but was stopped by Alma who discovered it first.

"Don't move around, the touch of living things will invalidate the veil of the dead."

Then Mystra continued to cast spells non-stop, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned four peeping eyes, and let them fly out along the gate of the temple.

Everyone gathered around him, looking at the picture transmitted by the magic screen.

At the beginning, it was rocks and ruins passing by at high speed, and soon the peeping magic eye left the scope of the temple, came outside and raised the angle of view.

Tonight is a night where you can't see your fingers. The dark clouds have long been hiding the bright moonlight behind, and it seems that it is going to rain.

Because there was no lighting, and the Peeping Eyes had no night vision function, everyone could only see something white walking through the ruins on the screen that was transmitted back. It was certain that those things must be undead creatures.

Mystra had previously detected the approach of undead creatures through the prophecy spell, so he wrapped everyone in the veil of the dead. The only function of this spell is to isolate the ghosts from probing, making them difficult to be found.

If you want to say that it looks like a ghost, it does look a bit like it, but it's still too dark for everyone to see clearly.

The Peeping Eye was still constantly raising its angle of view. At this time, a thunder flashed in the sky, instantly illuminating the dark night.

In an instant, everyone saw that the white objects walking through the ruins looked soft and insubstantial, more like a layer of thick mist, and seemed to emit an uncomfortable cold light.

"It's the fog of immortality."

Leticia recognized it, and then explained:
"This kind of mist is the embodiment of the resentment of the dead. It is not harmful or lethal in itself, but its appearance means that there are a large number of undead creatures nearby, which are probably legion level."

Only when tens of thousands of undead creatures gather together at the same time will there be a fog of undead. At the same time, this kind of fog can also block the damage of sunlight to undead creatures, allowing large army-level undead biomes to move in sunny days.

Lin Tianci has never seen ghosts with such a big fight. After all, in Eastern China, as long as ghosts appear, the monks will rush over like middle school students grabbing half-price potato chips. It is impossible to have the opportunity to form a legion-level scale .

However, there are frequent wars in the west, and there are many monsters, and there is no organization or individual capable of managing the entire continent. It is still possible for undead creatures to appear.

Especially in the area of ​​the original land of the orcs, the orcs collectively went berserk more than ten years ago, and the armies of the surrounding city-states were here to wipe out the orcs who had been disowned. .

The resentment of the dead made this land strongly cursed. In addition, there is an ancient battlefield not far away. Undead creatures attracted by resentment will wander around here in batches. A few coincidences will form a legion-level battleground. Undead biome.

The reason is understandable, but Alma and Redicia still feel that it is a bit strange to meet an army of undead creatures with the scale of the undead fog.

Undead creatures also don't have any brains, they only act with hatred for the living, and it is impossible for them to swarm spontaneously. In addition, this is only the edge of the original orc kingdom, so the possibility of encountering undead creatures is very small.

Suddenly, both of them thought about the news that undead creatures suddenly appeared all over the mainland. After all, they went to the swamp just to avoid the undead creatures that were active around Locke Town. Maybe it had something to do with that incident. related?
There may be a connection, but it cannot be that the undead army from Locke Town came to the Beast Kingdom, because there is a distant star lake in the middle, and there is Sunset Fort, which really came from Locke Town, Sunset Fort It must have been discovered long ago.

Leaving aside those two girls who were full of thoughts, Lin Tianci stared at the picture sent back by the peeping magic eye. With the angle of view getting higher and higher, and the occasional lightning flashing across the sky, he saw a large white area in the direction of the city gate. The moving object was approaching, and when it got closer, it was discovered that those white objects were an army of ghosts and skeletons.

They poured into the city like a tide, and the flames of the undead burning in their eye sockets were connected together, like stars shining in the night sky.

You can see how many there are.

Kegel immediately jumped up:

"Is it time to run now?"

"Probably not."

Mystra turned the peeping eye and adjusted the viewing angle to a wider range. Everyone saw that there were as many undead creatures as the tide directly hitting the city wall, and the skeletons that could not pass through the wall obediently climbed over the wall or walked through the city gate, while a large number of ghosts Passing through directly, it looks like a tsunami attack from a distance, which is spectacular.

More importantly, their movement speed is not too slow, and their impact surface is very large. If everyone runs away now, they will definitely be surrounded and caught up before they can leave the city in time.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Undead creatures are most suitable to be soldiers. We often say that morale is like a rainbow to describe the bravery of the army, but undead creatures have no such thing as morale. They will not be tired, fearless, and do not need to eat and rest, no matter how harsh the natural environment is Can fight decisively.

Compared with the wild orcs who simply don't know what death is, the army of undead creatures harvests life efficiently like a machine.

Although skeletons and ghosts are very weak, ordinary skeletons are so weak that even a farmer can perform a perfect one-on-two without injury.

But when the number is large enough to form a legion, it is no different from locusts, and this white terror will continue to wander until it is defeated.

When you see the fog of immortality, it's too late to run. Unless several members of the Four Dharma Kings' team can fly, it's better to stay in the temple honestly and be reliable.

Mystra's veil of the dead can greatly interfere with the perception of undead creatures, especially ghosts, who ignore living creatures hidden under the veil of the dead.

To put it bluntly, this spell is equivalent to a disguise for ghosts, making them look like ghosts. Since they are all undead creatures, they will not attract the attention of ghosts.

The bonfire had already been extinguished, and things with heat would attract the attention of undead creatures, so Lin Tianci not only used sand to extinguish the fire, but Lin Tianci also used Aoxue Palm to cool down the surrounding fire well.

Just after doing these trivial things, the legion of undead creatures has already reached the distance at hand.

Now even without the help of the Peeping Eye, everyone can see the undead army of ghosts and skeletons passing by the gate of the temple. It looks like a white train, but it is just a rather scary version.

However, the temple itself does not have ghosts passing through the walls. After all, it is a temple, the residence of the gods on the ground. Even though the owner of the temple, the orc god Gruumsh, has fallen more than ten years ago, the temple still has some divinity left. This part will make the ghost instinctively refuse to pass through the main building of the temple.

It can be said that the campsite chosen by everyone is still very correct. Even if ordinary small groups of undead creatures wander around, they will not rush into the temple.

But there are too many undead creatures. The images sent back by the peeping eyes show that the legion of undead creatures is almost endless. Even though it has been nearly half an hour since they discovered it, the vanguard of the undead creatures He ran away long ago and disappeared, and he still didn't see his head.

What the Peeping Eye sees is only part of it, because the number is too large, which has exceeded the widest angle of the Peeping Eye. Many times, only a large piece of shocking white can be seen on the magic image. overshadowed by them.

Ten thousand?Twenty thousand?Is it 10,000+ or ​​even hundreds of thousands?
What puzzled Lin Tianci was, with the current level of productivity, where can we find so many dead people?
This is of course abnormal. Not only is the unscientific supernatural power of the West inferior to that of Eastern China, but the level of social development is also much lower than that of Eastern China. Although the land area is almost twice the size of Eastern China, the population is estimated to be inferior to that of Eastern China. Half of China.

Casually encountered an undead army composed of hundreds of thousands of dead people, where did they get so many dead people, did they accumulate a little bit?
Even Lin Tianci, an outsider, could see that the number of undead creatures was unnaturally large, and other locals were of course even more puzzled.

The number of so-called legion-level undead creatures is usually between 1000 and 5000. This is already a very powerful number, and there is no pressure to destroy a town.

But compared with the present, it is more than just a little bit, there is no comparison at all.

Alma looked at the skeletons and ghosts running past outside, and said in a low voice:

"Will it be related to the undead creatures that Iona said invaded the demiplane?"

This is very possible!

It has been mentioned more than once, whether it is Eastern China or Oga Adut in the west, they are just a part of the plane named 'Dosu', and Dosu is only a part of the multiverse world, even a very small one. part.

The world is much bigger than imagined. Even a monk with an extremely long lifespan cannot travel all over the multiverse world. It can be said that this matter is placed on the good fortune fairy. He dare not guarantee that he has been to all of them.

There are countless planes and demiplanes, some of these places are not suitable for living, but some are no different from Duosu.

That is to say, the huge army of undead creatures in front of him, which looks like a white tsunami, is likely to be dead ghosts from other planes.
