Hundreds of ghouls roared and rushed towards Fang Zheng and the others. They opened their mouths wide and let out soul-stirring roars, looking as terrifying as ghosts.
These ghouls are quite difficult for ordinary people to deal with. Their skin is as hard as iron, and their roars can shake the will and spirit of humans. Their claws are sharp and have corpse poison on them. If you are caught by accident, you will be poisoned. If you cannot eliminate the poison in a short time, you may die and be transformed into one of these undead creatures.
However, to Fang Zheng and the others, these zombies were just appetizers.
"Get started!"
Following Fang Zheng's order, Kuang San, Hu Tao and Fina immediately raised their weapons and rushed towards the zombies.
Needless to say, Fang Zheng swung his giant sword and swept away everything. Along with the rising fire, zombies would scream and be turned into ashes from time to time. Their souls and remaining flesh turned into firewood and were completely absorbed by Fang Zheng.
Next to Fang Zheng, Kuang San had also taken off her cloak and put on her red and black spirit outfit. She held two guns high in her hands, smiled and pulled the trigger at the ghouls in front of her, beating them to pieces one by one. As an elf, Kuang San's physical attributes far exceeded those of humans, so it was no problem for her to deal with these ghouls.
Walnut on the other side was also very brave. Although she was still holding the shovel that Walnut brought from the biochemical world, it was not an ordinary shovel. It had been processed and modified by Nymph. It not only used the particle reinforcement technology from the forerunners, but also had the enchantments of "sharp edge" and "magic removal". Facing the zombie in front of her, Walnut swung the shovel and instantly split the opponent's head in half. Then the girl held the shovel handle tightly with both hands, shouted and swung it hard around. The next moment, the limbs flew around, and in the blink of an eye, several zombies were chopped into pieces by Walnut.
But in comparison, Fina is the bravest one.
Although this time was different from the previous fight with goblins, the young priestess did not carry a meteor hammer with her, but she did not mean to be timid. Fang Zheng saw Fina first chant a divine spell for herself in a low voice, adding a few buffs, and then raised the scepter and smashed it directly at the ghoul in front of her.
The scepter in the girl's hand, which was about the length of her forearm, hit the zombie's head, smashing it into pieces like a watermelon. At the same time, a flash of light burst out from it, forming a halo that spread out in all directions.
The ghouls that were touched by the light circle immediately began to burn with white flames. The flames from the holy light purified their bodies and souls, and taking advantage of the gap when the ghouls' offensive slowed down, Fina rushed in, turned the scepter in her hand a few times, and waved it forward again!
“Puff.”
Another watermelon shattered.
The number of zombies was not too large, and Fang Zheng and the others were all extremely powerful. In fact, if it weren't for letting Kurumi and Hu Tao experience the combat environment of the main world, Fang Zheng would have killed them all in one shot with a single Yangyan Blast.
But even so, it took no more than ten minutes, and the zombies that were besieging the crowd were wiped out, without even a single survivor left - they were all dead anyway.
"How does it feel?"
Fang Zheng looked around and confirmed that there were no enemies, then looked at Kuang San and Kurumi with a smile. Kuang San took a breath and said a little embarrassedly.
"It's really amazing... Well, it seems that I underestimated the enemy."
At this point, Kuang San showed a slightly dissatisfied expression, which was no wonder, because in the previous battle, it was Kuang San who killed the least number of enemies. Although she was holding two guns and shooting one by one, she could not withstand the range attacks of others.
Fang Zheng killed more than a dozen zombies at once with one swipe of his sword, and Hu Tao was able to chop down three or four with one shovel. As for Fina, she wielded her little scepter with great vigor, and about a quarter of them were killed by her.
In comparison, although Kuang San also killed one person with one shot, there was still a time difference, and she did not summon a clone. However, Kuang San was obviously not convinced.
"If I use the City of Time, then no matter how many come, I can easily deal with them!"
"This is it... do you really want to eat it?"
Fang Zheng curled his lips at a ghoul corpse not far away. Although this ghoul still barely maintained its human appearance, it looked like a mummy covered in skin and bones, with a rotten tongue and sharp teeth... Kuang San looked at it carefully for a moment, then turned her head away silently without saying anything.
"I never thought that Miss Fina would be so amazing..."
Hu Tao was also looking at Fina who was breathing heavily, and didn't know what to say for a moment. She was also confused by Fina's appearance at first, just like Fang Zheng. After all, a priest holding a scepter - well, in Hu Tao's memory, a priest's blood-adding profession didn't have much combat power. It was more like a back-row auxiliary blood-adding job.
As a result, when Walnut saw Fina rolling up her sleeves, waving her scepter and rushing over to smash the zombies' heads to pieces, she almost popped her eyes out!
"Um... Miss Fina? Are you okay?"
After hesitating for a moment, Hu Tao couldn't help but step forward and ask. Hearing Hu Tao's question, Fina turned her head, looked at her, and then shook her head.
"I'm fine? What's wrong?"
"No, this...that..."
Looking at the bloodstained scepter in Fina's hand, and then looking at Fina again, Walnut found that she didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at the ghouls lying at Fina's feet, and it took her a long time to organize her words.
"Um...are you...really okay?"
Kurumi knows that killing is not an easy thing. In the biochemical world, she once killed zombies to protect others. But after that, Kurumi had nightmares many times, and sometimes she couldn't sleep at all. As a girl living in a peaceful era, Kurumi is naturally quite resistant to killing, although she is not facing humans, but zombies. But they are all students and teachers in the same school as herself!
If it wasn't for protecting others, Hu Tao would have collapsed long ago.
Although she has gradually become familiar with fighting and is no longer as disgusted by it as before, when she sees Fina, she instinctively worries that she might suffer some psychological trauma from it.
“Ah…I see.”
Although Walnut's words were a little confusing, Fina was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted. She then smiled at Walnut and shook her head.
"It's okay, Miss Walnut. It was indeed uncomfortable at first, but we are clergymen. Our duty is to let the dead rest in peace. This is our obligation and responsibility. And... we do this to help relieve their pain so that the souls of the dead can rest in peace... Drink!"
As she spoke, Fina seemed to have discovered something. She rushed forward and swung the scepter in her hand, hitting the head of a zombie that was struggling to get up, smashing its head into pieces.
"Alas--!"
Seeing this scene, Hu Tao couldn't help but let out a low cry, then instinctively took two steps back. For some reason, when she saw Fina doing this, she felt a dull pain in her head - wait, although I am a zombie now, I don't want to sleep, I want to live a little longer!
Just then, Hu Tao felt someone patting her shoulder. She turned around and saw Fang Zheng standing next to her.
"Okay, never mind, it's just a cultural difference..."
“…”
Well, it is indeed a cultural difference.
After killing these zombies, the next problem everyone has to face is another one, which is... where do these zombies come from?
“There aren’t that many people in this village.”
Looking at the corpses of ghouls scattered all over the ground, Fang Zheng shook his head. Although he didn't count them clearly during the previous battle, he could roughly tell that there were about 300 ghouls attacking them, and there were only about 100 people in this village, Fang Zheng saw that morning.
What's more, what made Fang Zheng even more confused was that the whole village was obviously normal before, why did it become like this in the blink of an eye?
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng seemed to realize something.
"Ms. Fina, let's go to Uncle Rand's house."
"OK."
Although she didn't know what Fang Zheng wanted to do, Fina nodded and soon brought Fang Zheng and his group to Uncle Rand's house on the hillside again.
However, just as they climbed the stairs, Kurumi couldn't help but cry out.
"Hey? What's going on??"
