The person hiding in the dark was naturally paying attention to Rong Jian's movements at all times, so the moment he found that he was distracted, he immediately launched an attack.
The long sword flashed with a faint blue light, breaking through the black fog, like a burning flame, suddenly illuminating the entire night.
The attack came straight from the left wing, and the image of the stranger also appeared in Rong Jian's eyes.
No, that's not a human!
The clothes that were tattered and mostly rotten, the purple and dry skin, the sunken eye sockets, the huge black mouth, all of this was explained to Rong Jian.
This enemy that appeared inexplicably was not a living person, but a corpse, a corpse with the ability to move.
With the strength of the Gengjin Arm, Rong Jian raised his sword and collided with the knife of the corpse in front of him again.
Although Rong Jian's loss of consciousness just now was partly due to his own weapon spirit, he mainly did it on purpose to show it to the corpse.
The enemy is in the dark, I am in the light.
If we don't use illusions to confuse the enemy and make them attack, do we really have to wait for the enemy to attack in advance before we can counterattack?
That would be too passive, and when the enemy rushed out to start fighting, he would definitely be at a disadvantage.
The corpse's knife was obviously more powerful than the first time he attacked, but Rong Jian, who had been preparing for a long time, was not in vain.
It was only at this time that Rong Jian understood why the enemy possessed such powerful strength.
A corpse that has mutated, or perhaps... has been artificially tempered, must be as strong as a magic weapon.
It is reasonable that the force is great when fighting with a body as strong as a magic weapon.
This also aptly illustrates another problem. This corpse's defense is definitely not weak. With his strength, it may be difficult to break through his defense.
Another unsuccessful attack, the corpse turned around and tried to retreat without any further desire to fight.
For the zombies, the surrounding black fog is their natural cover. With such an excellent environmental advantage, it is not a wise choice to choose to confront Rong Jian head-on.
But can Rong Jian let it go and merge into the black fog again, putting himself in a passive situation again?
Of course not.
With the spiritual power under his feet circulating and Tiger Leap performed, Rong Jian quickly approached the corpse, ensuring that the distance between them was no more than three meters.
This was the farthest distance his vision could capture. If it was any farther, he would not be able to see the corpse clearly and would be easily thrown away.
The iron sword in his hand was driven by spiritual power, causing it to flash with a light glow. Rong Jian suddenly accelerated and raised the sword to chop vertically.
The corpse's expression remained uniquely dull, and his hands moved a little stiffly, but at a fast pace.
The long sword was raised, and a faint light flashed.
"choke!"
"Bang!"
Although the corpse wanted to retreat, Rong Jian's sword kept moving, so he had to stop and block the attack.
For a moment, the sound of swords clashing could be heard continuously, and spiritual power and ghostly energy crisscrossed, causing the gray fog to become chaotic.
Rong Jian didn't know what material the knife in the corpse's hand was made of, but he thought it was not a simple weapon.
In comparison, his sword was just an ordinary fine iron sword that could be bought in any weapon shop.
Therefore, after dozens of weapon collisions, the sword in his hand, which had already been chipped, broke with a "crack".
In an instant, the corpse turned from defense to offense, rushed towards Rong Jian with a force of his feet, and swept his long sword across.
The importance of weapons in combat is self-evident. The difference between a person with a sword and a person without a sword is huge.
Losing your weapon means you will be in a passive situation. The advantage of weapons cannot be obtained with bare hands.
The corpse man understood this, so when he found that he could not escape, he responded with a defensive posture, conserving his strength and waiting for Rong Jian's iron sword to disintegrate.
Rong Jian looked serious. He moved his feet back a distance and narrowly avoided the corpse's knife.
Then he leaned back and rushed forward, avoiding the attack range of the long knife and getting directly close to the corpse's body.
The corpse man has reservations, so does he?
For Rong Jian, the iron sword is just a sharp tool to be used for other purposes, not a weapon.
He was not proficient in swordsmanship and used an iron sword to attack. He only used some moves he learned from watching others use swords. The effect can be imagined.
So why did he have to engage the zombie in a sword fight when he appeared? Because otherwise, the zombie would never give him a chance to get close.
What he is really good at is close combat and the collision of fists and feet!
His right hand formed into a claw, and he pounced like a tiger, mobilizing all his strength and pointing directly at the corpse's throat.
At this moment, the corpse man had no time to retract the knife he had previously swung, and there was a gap in front of him!
"puff!"
The five fingers were strengthened by spiritual power and supported by martial arts, so their strength was naturally not low, not to mention that it was a powerful attack that Rong Jian had been planning for a long time.
This claw sank directly into the corpse's throat. As Rong Jian exerted force again, the head, which still had a dazed expression, flew out.
When it fell to the ground, it made a dull sound.
Rong Jian stood up straight and kicked down the headless corpse in front of him. After thinking for a while, he broke the knife from the corpse's hand.
After weighing the knife in his hand and confirming that it was of much better quality than his own iron sword, Rong Jian felt satisfied.
Not bad, I have a useful tool that can be used for a while!
After the battle, the next thing to do is naturally to go back.
Rong Jian's pace was not slow, but he did not dare to relax at all mentally.
Although the zombie had been defeated by him, the gray fog around him showed no sign of dissipating.
Rong Jian couldn't be sure whether other zombies would emerge from the gray fog in the next second, so he had to remain vigilant.
Fortunately, during the fight with the zombies, he had specially memorized the route he had taken. Now he just had to follow the direction of the steps and walk back step by step.
Maybe there was really only that one zombie, or maybe because Rong Jian killed the zombie, the other zombies retreated and walked all the way back to the temporary base without encountering any accidents.
However……
When Rong Jian saw Fu hanging in the air with a puffed-up face, an ominous premonition came to his mind.
"You've gone too far. Just now... three unconscious people were taken away by the zombies!"
Rong Jian's face darkened instantly.
It was obvious that he had fallen into a trap.
The zombies' original target was not him, but the three unconscious Dong Shaos.
But the reason he left just now was that Fu was here and he trusted her!
Sure enough, the next second, Fu turned around and smiled at him, with excitement flashing between her eyebrows.
She raised her hand and pointed in a direction, "I left a mark on Dong Shao. How about we go meet the mastermind behind this?"
Rong Jian: "..." One trouble-making Dong Shao is not enough, and now there is also Feng Xing'er who is always causing trouble. Now, there is another Fu who wants to cause trouble?
Rong Jian suddenly felt that life... was so fucking difficult!
