Vegetable Skeleton's Exotic Land Reclamation
Chapter 978 Mourning the Dead
Anthony led the undead army into the night and soon approached Highland City.
Highland means hillside. This is the highest place nearby. It is washed by water and forms a natural ravine. From the bottom of the gully to the slope, it naturally becomes a wall. It is high for defense and is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
So this settlement was named Highland City, the only one of the four settlements with a name.
However, the highlands are not as good as highlands. The terrain is uneven, it is difficult to obtain water, and soil erosion occurs. They are not suitable for growing things, so they have the smallest population.
But after the Shenguang Alliance retreated, everything changed. Safety was given top priority, and residents from other settlements continued to flee here.
In addition, Highland City originally had a grain depot with sufficient food, causing the population here to increase wildly. There are almost tens of thousands of people gathered here, and it is the only settlement that still maintains order.
This information was retrieved by Anthony from the memory of the leader of the settlement to the east. The leader has now turned into a zombie and is moving behind the team. The other party once tried to attack Highland City and rob food and people, but was quickly defeated. After beating him back, he didn't even go up the slope.
However, Anthony is still a little worried. One month has passed and what is the situation in Highland City? He knows very well what disasters the chaos after such drastic changes will cause. The last settlement is a very tragic example.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was sudden movement in front of him. Anthony looked around and saw a figure appearing on the ridge in front, looking in this direction from a distance.
Huh? Any sentry? This is a good sign. Having enough energy to send out sentries means that the organizational structure is still maintained. If it is organized, it will not be too chaotic and some tragic things can be avoided.
Of course, if the leader is a cruel person, he will fall into another more tragic state - organized chaos, but this situation is too rare and unlikely to appear in this place in a short time.
Anthony quickly asked the undead creature to stop, and he walked up quickly. After walking a long distance, the man opposite was startled and quickly fell to the ground.
Dare to let the other person stand up arrogantly, not because he is bold, but because he cannot see the person and thinks that others cannot see him.
Anthony greeted quickly: "Hello, friends in front of me, I am from the settlement in the east. Do you have anything to eat?"
The person on the opposite side stood up again and shouted: "Stop, I'll call someone, please wait." Then he turned around and ran back.
Anthony muttered in surprise: "Single whistle?"
Anthony walked up the slope and saw that it was indeed a single sentry. Except for the sentry just now, there was no one else. There should be no hidden sentry, otherwise it would not be able to hide from Anthony's perception.
This is really dumbfounding. Isn’t it too amateurish? If there are no light and dark sentries, there must be at least two sentries. Otherwise, if one goes back to report, the sentry position will be useless.
Probably because there has never been anything that required reporting in the middle of the night, let alone a professional sneak attack.
Not long after, five figures ran down the slope from a distance. When they saw Anthony from a distance, they shouted: "Are you from the east? Why are you here? How is the situation over there?"
When these people approached, Anthony frowned. They were all swordsmen, and they were swordsmen with the power of chaos.
After coming here for several days, Anthony finally figured out what was special about the people here. Almost all humans were born with the power of chaos and were very powerful.
I heard that even His Majesty suffered losses here. As for what kind of losses he suffered, Nigris did not say. He just rubbed his index and middle toes in front of him, making a gesture like a profiteer.
Anthony didn't ask as he wanted. It was enough to know that His Majesty had suffered a loss. It would be bad to know too much in detail. It had no other meaning except to satisfy his curiosity. On the contrary, it might make His Majesty angry.
Nigris just couldn't figure it out, but he didn't need to figure it out. Ange was there to protect him and his majesty pampered him until he was spoiled.
Although he knew that His Majesty had suffered a loss and was mentally prepared, he was still frightened in the eastern settlement in the afternoon. Even the most junior swordsman of the power of chaos had the ability to break his defense, and he struck out with the power of chaos. With such aura, his defense could not withstand it.
Switching to Chaos side swordsmen, junior and intermediate level swordsmen could no longer break through his defense. They could not cut him even if they stood there.
This is the biggest difference between the swordsmen in the two places, but the martial arts are the same, so Anthony picked up the martial arts he had not used for a long time, chopped melons and vegetables, and knocked the opponent to death.
The four in front of me are also swordsmen of the power of chaos, but their auras are much stronger than those in the eastern settlements. They are probably all at the level of high-level swordsmen, and they advance and retreat in a controlled manner. They always focus on the swordsman in front of them, no matter what. He was able to move forward or retreat with ease, and he was obviously used to cooperating.
Anthony responded: "We were attacked by people on an airship. In the afternoon, an airship suddenly landed at the farm outside. Then a group of people rushed in, hacked and killed, robbed all the food, and then left. . We have no food, so come here and see if you can take us in?"
"How many of you are there?" The five people on the other side finally came to the post and asked while looking at Anthony.
Anthony shook his head: "I don't know. We ran over all at once. I don't know how many people there were. For fear of causing misunderstanding, they all stayed down below and asked me to come up and report."
"You have tender skin and tender flesh. You don't look like you have suffered or been hungry. You wouldn't have eaten that food, right?" The leading swordsman stared at Anthony carefully.
Anthony naturally understood what 'that thing' he was talking about and quickly shook his head: "No, no, I haven't eaten it, absolutely not."
"Don't panic. If you have eaten it, the ghost can smell it. Don't move and stand still." As he said that, the leading swordsman took out a box and opened it and a ghost floated up: "Don't move, let the ghost Smell it, if you haven’t eaten it we will take you in.”
Anthony looked at the ghost curiously, and strangely, there was a faint aura of chaos and mist on this ghost.
The ghost floated over, smelled Anthony, then immediately floated back screaming, and swooped back into the box.
Clang, clang, clang - everyone pulled out their long swords, and then looked at the leading swordsman blankly. The leading swordsman also looked blank, looked at the box and asked: "What's wrong with the ghost?"
A message comes from the box: be afraid...
"What do you mean? What is the ghost afraid of? This reaction is wrong. Has it eaten before?" the leading swordsman said blankly.
Only Anthony knew what the ghost was afraid of. He was afraid of the Holy Light. Just as he was about to say something, a roar suddenly came from behind: "Idiot, he is playing tricks on you. The people under the mountain are not living people, they are all undead creatures."
Anthony turned around and was shocked. He saw that the undead creatures staying at the foot of the mountain surged up like a tide without his order. In this 'tide', a cloud of smoke slowly drifted up. Come up.
A face appeared in the smoke, and his mouth opened and closed there. It was obviously him who scolded 'idiot', and he also took away Anthony's control over the undead creatures and directed the undead creatures to rush towards Anthony.
But this is not the most shocking thing. What shocked Anthony the most is that the smoke turned out to be purple: "Mourning the dead? Sir, help me!"
