"A long time ago, there were actually 13 dragon mark families in the world. The dragon mark that disappeared in history is called the death dragon mark."
In the living room of the B&B, everyone sat around the sofa, listening to Nia's father talking about the Dragon Mark of Death.
"The last generation of the Death Dragon Clan is called the Lich Queen. When I was a child, she once conducted an experiment on the Undead Scourge in my hometown."
The term "scourge of the undead" refers specifically to events that cause an infestation of the undead.
There are many reasons for the occurrence of the Scourge of the Undead, but as long as it is a large enough scale of undead disaster, it is called the Scourge of the Undead.
In the old days of Karrnath, the frequency of the Scourge of Undead remained high.
Speaking of this, Mr. Yitzchak seemed to see again the scene of his relatives and neighbors turning into undead creatures in the dark green rain.
"You mean, this disaster is related to the Lich Queen?"
Taking a look at the green rain outside the window, Carl's bad premonition became more and more obvious.
"Yes, at least I don't know of anyone who can directly change the celestial phenomena controlled by the Storm Dragon Mark Family, and this rain is exactly the same as what I saw back then."
Seeing Nia's father looking depressed, Ryan immediately said, "Since she didn't kill us directly, it proves that she has other purposes! No matter what, we just have to try our best to survive!"
Strip away the complications and the truth is just as Ryan said.
Carl agreed with his father's point of view, and he felt that as long as they could hold on until the Storm Dragonmark Family reacted, they would definitely deal with the troublemaker.
Looking at all the organizations on the mainland, which one doesn't have a legend? However, although he agreed, when Karl spoke, he changed his tone.
"Mom and Dad, it's better for you and your uncle and aunt to stay in the B&B. You lack the necessary magical protection and are easy to be attacked."
"Hey! Don't look down on me, kid! I am your father, too..."
He was about to show his son his father's bravery, but accompanied by a flash of light, Carl suddenly had a set of power armor on his body. The whole body was silver, but with red and blue stripes.
This is the Tiga Type IV Power Armor, a special armored division power armor that Carl upgraded by combining the Guardian model and the Infiltrator model.
Not only can it use Thunder Fist in red form, but it can also instantly switch to blue form and use lightning launchers for long-range attacks.
In addition to these, the airtightness of the power armor is also better than before.
Not long ago, Carl used V to test the green rain and found that it only worked on carbon-based organisms and had no effect on steel.
So this also means that Carl, who is wearing power armor, will not be affected by the green rain and can move in and out of the rain curtain freely.
"So Carl, do you know what to do next?"
Staring at the fully armed Carl, Mr. Yitzchak asked in a low voice.
He was afraid that students like Carl, who were still in school, would not recognize the cruelty of reality.
"Don't worry, uncle, no one knows how to deal with zombies better than me!"
Calling the cleaned V over, Carl stood in front of V and connected the power armor to V through a chiseled connection.
Two floating cannons rose up, and the huge mechanical arm matched with Carl's Tiga Type IV power armor gave people a "ferocious" feeling.
"Don't worry, I will get rid of all the guys who have turned into zombies. If conditions permit, I will also capture one or two newly infected people for Nia to study."
With a heroic spirit of "I am the hope of the whole village", Carl waved goodbye to everyone at home, and then walked into the rain.
…
“Puff!”
Green slime and brain matter spurted out, marking its difference from humans.
"After becoming a zombie, blood and other things will turn into rain like this? So is this an alchemical liquid or something else?"
Taking out a dimensional bag made with the power of injection, Carl collected some zombie tissues into it and would give it to Nia for research later.
This was the first zombie he encountered today.
As for the rest, they seemed to be attracted to the base camp of the Storm Dragon Mark Family by something.
"According to Uncle Yizhak, the Lich Queen harbors deep malice towards the Dragonmark Family. Could it be that those zombies were called to attack the headquarters of the Storm Dragonmark Family?"
The moment this thought came to his mind, Carl quickly denied it.
Even Carl could easily deal with this zombie, so how could the mages who were powerful enough to change the weather in the storm not be able to deal with them? "Wait! Look what I found? A lone zombie. Judging from her appearance, she must have just experienced a very physically demanding exercise not long ago. So her physical strength is reduced, so her resistance to rain will also be reduced?"
Keeping this thought in mind for the moment, Carl switched to the infiltrator form and raised his hand to release a bolt of lightning.
Although suspected to be a dual creation of alchemy and necromancy, the zombie still showed characteristics of convulsions after being hit by Carl's electric current.
"How about we capture her and bring her back to Nia for research?"
Judging from the combat capability of this zombie alone, it is indeed very suitable for basic research.
But just as Carl was about to step forward to pack up the zombies, an angry shout sounded from a distance.
Carl looked up and found that in the distance there was a strong man breathing heavily and moving towards him on all fours.
All the blood vessels in his body were now a strange purple color, and some wounds on his back that were scratched by fingernails were oozing green pus, which looked extremely disgusting.
"Let go, let go... ah~"
Unable to utter a complete sentence, the burly man continued to move towards this side while threatening Carl.
When the distance between the two sides reached a rather ambiguous length, the sturdy man's eyes suddenly turned into a lifeless gray.
Immediately afterwards, the burly zombie roared, picked up a bench next to him and attacked Carl.
With a "bang", the ironwood bench shattered, but Carl was also pushed far away by a huge force.
Carl was very familiar with this feeling; it was the heavy blow that the Champion Warrior sub-profession was very good at.
"Could it be that these zombies have retained their occupational characteristics from their lifetime?"
Thinking of this possibility, Karl's pupils shrank and he immediately felt the pressure.
But before Carl could figure out what to do next, the burly zombie attacked again.
"Humph, you dare to show off your skills in front of an expert! My father is much more capable than you!"
With no intention of indulging this zombie, Carl controlled V's mechanical arm and performed a set of moves imitating Bigby's Hand on the spot.
Amid the whistling sound of breaking wind, the sturdy zombie was knocked to the ground like a kite with a broken string. He could only watch as Carl took out a rope, tied up the female zombie who had had sex with him not long ago, into a dumpling and took her away.
“Roar~”
Staring with eyes that were gradually turning green, the burly zombie roared angrily, and then his head was blown up by Carl's gunfire.
