Chapter 242 027: Tide of the Undead
Luo Xi got straight to the point and said, "You two, just tell me what you have to say."
Seeing how these two people were trying to be polite, Luo Xi knew without even thinking that they must be asking for something.
As expected.
After hearing Luo Xi's words, the two looked at each other and began to hesitate.
"this"
After exchanging glances, Jerome finally said, "Let me tell you."
After a pause, he said, "Master Wizard, after spending so many days together, we have also felt that you are an upright person. We trust you, so we are willing to share the secret with you."
Luo Xi asked doubtfully, "Secret? Is it something you wanted to say but didn't say on the day we met?"
He remembered that Kane obviously wanted to say something that day, but was stopped by Jerome in the end. At that time, he guessed that this might be a little secret shared by several people, or even related to their coming to this ruined land.
Jerome nodded and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to tell you."
"Huh? What is that? There seems to be something in the river."
Jerome was about to say something, but at this moment, Kane suddenly pointed to the river in the distance and said.
However, the river water, which was originally calm, suddenly became a little turbulent, and there seemed to be something floating in the river.
"Dead spirits, they are dead spirits."
"Why are there so many dead spirits in the river?"
Looking closely, it was discovered that what were floating in the river were actually undead spirits, including skeletons, zombies, ghouls, carrion-eating insects, etc. Basically, all kinds of undead spirits that were scattered throughout this undead ruins were there, in large numbers and densely packed.
Before Luo Xi could understand what was going on, Jerome and the other two beside him changed their expressions drastically.
"Tide of the Dead!"
They shouted out a word in unison, as if they had encountered something extremely terrible. Luo Xi clearly saw that at this moment the faces of the three of them turned extremely pale, bloodless, and their bodies began to tremble.
"Oh my god, why would the Undead Tide erupt at this time? Why would it be here?!"
Is this the Undead Tide? Luo Xi remembered that Jerome and the others had mentioned it to him before. It seemed to be a natural phenomenon unique to this Undead Ruins. Its power was equivalent to a storm on the ocean. It was extremely terrifying.
“It seems to be unusual.”
Luo Xi's face suddenly became solemn. This was because he suddenly felt that the elemental particles around him had also undergone abnormal changes. The number of negative energy particles increased rapidly in just a few breaths, and the death energy increased dramatically.
Originally, the death energy here was already quite strong, and now it was more like entering the plane of hell. The bone-chilling cold made Luo Xi feel a chill on his spine unconsciously.
Jerome said quickly: "Master Wizard, we must leave here."
Luo Xi nodded: "Hurry up and get in the car."
Fortunately, the magic tents they used for camping were very convenient to fold up and could be directly stuffed into the space ring.
Several people quickly packed up the things in the camp, and then immediately got into the carriage. It took less than a minute for the entire camp to be emptied and ready to go.
"Boom!~"
Almost at the same time when they finished packing up, a loud rumbling sound came from behind.
Luo Xi turned his head and looked back, and when he saw it, he couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation on his scalp.
Suddenly, thick smoke appeared on the horizon behind, and the smoke was more than ten meters high.
The thick smoke was pure black. A closer look revealed that it was formed by a large amount of death energy gathered together. Wrapped in the thick smoke was nothing but the undead, which were densely packed and countless.
"OMG!"
Luo Xi's scalp tingled, and he quickly ordered the unicorns to start the carriage and gallop forward.
Such a large number of undead were like the tides of the sea, rolling over in an overwhelming manner and Luo Xi had no ability to deal with it.
“Da da da!”
“Da da da!”
The sound of unsteady horse hooves rang out, and the unicorns seemed to have sensed the crisis behind them. They began to run wildly in the ruins with all four hooves flying. It was obvious that they had reached their maximum speed.
The speed of the unicorn was already fast enough, but what was shocking was that the speed of the undead tide behind it was even faster than that of the unicorn. It was visibly visible to the naked eye that they were closing the distance little by little.
Luo Xi frowned: "No, this is not a solution! Sooner or later, we will be caught up."
The three of them were suddenly panicked. If they were trapped in the tide of the undead, there would be no possibility of survival. It was a terrifying situation that would drown even high-level wizards and even sages.
Angel almost cried: "Master Wizard, what should we do?"
Luo Xi asked: "Calm down and think carefully. Is there any place to hide nearby?"
He felt that he only had a map in his hand, and he was definitely not as familiar with the terrain here as the local residents. However, he was indeed disappointed this time. In fact, Jerome and his companions were not permanent residents of the Undead Ruins. They all came from other places in the ruins, and this was their first time to go deep into this Undead Ruins.
Therefore, when faced with Luo Xi's questions, the three of them found it difficult to give reliable answers and all shook their heads.
Rosie frowned.
If he was alone, it would be fine. With his flying ability, he could fly into the sky. But in that case, he would have to abandon the three of them. Besides, the unicorn that he had recovered with great difficulty would have to be left here.
These unicorns have not yet grown to the advanced stage, and naturally have not mastered the ability to fly. He has no way to take them away now.
Just at this moment, Lina's voice rang out.
"Go that way!"
She pointed to the east and said, "There is a tall tower over there. It is a very tall tower!"
The sky over this undead ruin has always been covered with a thick layer of dust or the air of death, resulting in poor visibility here. Luo Xi can't see clearly where Lina is pointing.
However, he still had great confidence in the ghost's scouting ability, so he immediately ordered the unicorns to rush in the direction she pointed.
After running in this direction for a few minutes, Luo Xi came to a broken ruin, and here he finally saw the tall tower that Lina pointed to.
It was indeed as she had described before. This was an extremely huge tower. The diameter of the base alone was estimated to be thousands of meters long, and the height was several thousand meters high. It was as majestic as a sword inserted into the earth. (End of this chapter)
