Under the bright moon, on the wasteland, the skeleton undead and the lizardman bandits were fighting fiercely.
A lizardman bandit was having so much fun that he didn't notice that he had been surrounded by the skeleton undead without knowing it. It was not until he found that he was surrounded by the skeleton undead with blue soul fire flickering in their eye sockets and slowly surrounding him that he realized that something was wrong.
But he had no chance to escape. The skeleton undead did not give him room to dodge and move. They approached little by little, ignoring their companions who were kicked away, and squeezed the living space of the lizardman bandits.
"Don't come over here! I told you not to come over here! Help—"
The lizardman bandit's eyes turned into vertical pupils, full of fear, threatening the undead who were advancing step by step, and at the same time shouted for help to his companions around him. Unfortunately, the other lizardmen were also busy with their own affairs and had no hands to help him.
The distance was getting closer and closer, the skeleton undead launched a charge, and the lizardman fought back frantically. Five knife-wielding undead hiding in the group of skeletons approached him and stabbed him without hesitation.
Puff puff puff...
Pull it out, push it in, pull it out, push it in...
The lizardman bandit never imagined that among a group of unarmed skeletons, there was actually someone holding a knife. When he felt a sharp pain, he found that there were more than a dozen bloody holes on his body.
"ah--"
He kicked out another skeleton, but failed to break it into pieces like before. Instead, he lost his balance and was overwhelmed by the skeleton undead, leaving only shrill screams.
When the leader heard the screams, his body trembled suddenly. He took a peek and saw a group of skeletons gathered together like a pile of monks. He knew that his men were finished.
After the first one, there was the second one, who was surrounded and killed by the skeletons in the same way.
If this continues, everyone will die. Retreat, we must retreat!
He had just blew the bone whistle, and the other lizardman companions would be here soon. As long as he could reunite with his companions, dealing with these skeletons that would shatter at the slightest touch would be a piece of cake.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
The lizardman leader beat and kicked the surrounding skeleton undead to force them back, and rushed madly into the darkness, shouting loudly to remind his men.
Including the leader, only three lizardmen finally escaped. One of them was seriously injured, with several bloody holes in his body, and blood was constantly oozing out.
Fortunately, the lizardmen have strong vitality. Even though their injuries are serious, as long as they can survive and recuperate for a period of time, they will eventually recover.
The undead looked at the three lizardmen who fled into the darkness, but did not chase them. Instead, they cleaned up the battlefield, collected the bodies of the lizardmen bandits and their weapons and equipment, and returned to the mobile fortress.
"All undead enter silent mode, increase your movement speed to maximum, and leave immediately!"
After all the skeleton undead returned, Li Ziyu immediately gave an order. Under his command, the mobile fortress slowly turned and accelerated in the direction where the lizardman bandits were fleeing.
Li Ziyu also heard the lizardman leader blowing the bone whistle just now. He didn't think that the lizardman leader blew the whistle for fun. It was probably to ask for help. The undead have a range for exploring the breath of life. There might be other lizardmen hiding in places that have not been explored.
Three of the eight lizardmen were able to escape. If they came in groups, he really wouldn't be able to resist. The best thing to do is to stop while you're ahead and run away when you get the advantage.
With the help of the night, the lizardman bandits fled madly until they saw the dark shadow in front of them, and then they stopped cautiously.
"beep--"
In the silent night, the sharp sound of the bone whistle can be heard from far away. Upon hearing the sound of the bone whistle, the lizardman leader immediately relaxed. It was one of his own people, so he took out his own bone whistle and blew it in response.
After receiving the response, the dark shadows on the opposite side ran over and gathered around the lizardman leader. They were all lizardmen, dressed the same, and there were nearly a hundred of them.
These lizardmen are all young and strong men, and like the lizardman leader, they are also bandits.
"Why are you in such a mess, hiss~"
"Where are the others?"
The gathered lizardman bandits couldn't help but ask a lot of questions when they saw their companions in such a mess, especially since a few of them were missing.
"Dead, Undead..."
Before the lizardman leader could say anything, the lizardman with several bloody holes in his body spoke first, explaining in a halting manner. However, his words were too brief, which made the surrounding lizardmen even more confused.
What undead?
They turned to look at the lizardman leader, waiting for his explanation.
"We encountered a group of strange creatures. Hiss, they were waving bones, exactly like the legendary undead. The others didn't escape and died."
"You're not scared to brag, are you?"
"There are no undead spirits. Stop talking nonsense."
"I've lived for so long, but I've never seen the undead. How strong are they? Are they as strong as the legends say?"
"How many undead were there? Thousands, or tens of thousands? How did you escape?"
When the lizardmen heard the leader's words, they exploded. Some did not believe it and felt that the lizardman leader was lying to them. Some were confused, some were afraid, and some were curious and belligerent, and they all asked questions.
The crowd suddenly parted, and two lizardmen came over. The leading lizardman had scars all over his body, and the scales had fallen off in some places. He was wearing plate armor, with two scimitars on his waist and three javelins on his back.
When the other lizardmen saw this man, they all saluted and called him Am. He was the leader of this group of lizardmen and also the leader of a tribe.
