Chapter 3307 Dead Frog
Chapter 3304 Dead Frog
As soon as Xia De finished speaking, Teresa, wearing glasses, immediately objected:
"What are you talking about? Xia De, most of these funeral objects were found by you. I will definitely help."
Miss Leyard hurriedly said:
"Mr. Hamilton's words make sense. It is indeed the safest to find a special cemetery with less danger to check the situation."
Xia De looked at Miss Violet again and found that she was still staring at her, and even if Xia De discovered it, the blonde witch just smiled and faced it:
"No problem, I support your approach. Teresa, remember to learn. Sometimes when your task list is filled with all the tasks of all sizes, don't just focus on the most important one. Perhaps the most important information is hidden in those inconspicuous details."
Since he had decided to go to Chuhuo first and then try to find the exit, Xia De selected seven of the 24 burial objects and put them in the box. He whispered his wish, that is, he hoped to find the location of "Zhuhuo" and then lifted the box, and there was an extra compass inside.
No matter how it turns, the pointer of the compass always points in the same direction, which means everyone knows what it means. As for the compass itself, the shaky holy logo of the "Ancient God of Death" is on the flat back of the compass, Xia De guessed that this was probably because everyone could break the secret of the hut.
"So Xiade, who do you want to go out with you?"
Miss Violet said, when Shade looked at them, the blonde witch emperor looked at him with a teacup and smiled. The nun wearing a blindfold raised his head in his direction. Teresa stood next to her aunt with one hand in anticipation, while Miss Leyard hugged her hands together and hung her in front of her, standing in front of the fireplace, she bravely looked at Shade.
Although the distance between the four people is different, they seem to be arranged in an orderly manner at this time. None of them opposes being selected by Xia De, and everyone has reasons for wanting to go out with him.
Xia De pressed the cat that was protruding his head back:
"Tresa!"
"I am here!"
The young girl wearing glasses laughed suddenly, and then she heard Xia De say:
"Please stay and prepare the meals we will come back. The nun must follow me, I can't handle the first fire by myself. Miss Violet's combat power is very necessary when facing unknown dangers. Miss Leyard's experience in tomb robbing may be useful for this adventure, and this time it should be more than just digging the soil."
"Why is this happening~"
The young blonde girl complained in a low voice, but after being looked at by her teacher, she closed her mouth again:
"Oh well."
She rolled up her sleeves and became energetic again. Xia De still remembered that she was not as confident and positive when she first met her in "Lost Lake":
"I'll prepare food for you as a chef. Remember to come back early and be sure to be safe."
"Does my daughter and I go with you?"
The hunting dog at the door asked, and Xia De shook his head:
"You stay with Teresa. After so many things, I finally rescued me. Now you need rest. When we are really ready to go to the last stop, please play your role again."
Since they decided to go out, the group of four cleaned up and prepared to leave. Of course, two of the remaining 17 burial objects were taken out and replaced with shovels. This time, both shovels were taken away by Xia De. Among the remaining 15 burial objects, 7 of them, including scepters, were taken out for emergencies, and the last 8 were left for Teresa to keep.
At the same time, Teresa also lent the [One-Strike Pistol] to Xia De again, and also gave him the ten-round magazine and the [Vision Bullet] just now. When handing over the weapon, she glanced at her teacher, but still boldly kissed Xia De's corner of her mouth.
After that, the four of them bid farewell to Teresa, who was "guarding the house", and then the nun carried the oil lamp and Xiade led it with a compass, and walked into the mist of the tombstone wasteland again.
The direction pointed out by the compass pointer is actually the direction the group returned from the position of the [Corpse Tree] just now. But Xia De, who had a good memory, noticed that the path he was walking and the tombstones he passed by were completely different from what he had just done.
The space seemed to have changed strangely again after a moment when everyone was chatting in the gravekeeper's hut. The tree was no longer visible in the fog in the distance. Instead, a black shadow in the shape of a bell tower stood in the distance.
Just when everyone thought that was the destination, the black shadow disappeared without a trace after a blink of an eye.
On the originally slightly wet wasteland, as they continued to move forward, there were some small puddles, and there were dark mud and water in the puddles. Miss Violet, wearing high heels, was forced to change into the boots provided by Shade, but the professional tomb robber Miss Leyard was originally wearing boots.
The puddles on the ground gradually became more connected in front of them. Although they did not form lakes or rivers, they could already be regarded as "wetlands". The rotten smell that already existed in the air became even more unbearable in this wet area. Xia De, who still remembers the list of monsters given by the hunting dog, reminds everyone to be careful.
His concern was correct, because as the team continued to move forward, a strange creature really appeared between the tombstones in front.
It was a frog-like thing with a dark skin and a tadpole-shaped tail. Its body size was a circle larger than the hunting dog in the house, and its bulging eyes were round like a gas lampshade, and the number of eyes was far more than two.
Its limbs were lying on the ground, and it almost blended with the small puddle due to the color of the skin. When the forward team noticed it, it also noticed a group of four people. So at a distance of nearly twenty meters, the black "frog" opened its mouth and shot his tongue at Sister Beren who was walking in the front.
The lantern in the nun's hand shook slightly, and then the barrier formed by the red flame blocked the ejected tongue. While the tongue rebounded, the [Challenge of Sin] shoved out of Xia De's hand tied the black tongue.
He frowned slightly, and a faint chill came from the other end of the chain, which was something that had never happened before. And as Xia De pulled hard, the "frog" lying in the puddle flew towards everyone.
"Moonlight wheel!"
The buzzing silver light wheel slashed vertically at the frog, but after touching its body, it simply rotated and splashed out silver light spots, but could not split it immediately. So Miss Violet raised her hand and pointed, and the gold and silver light turned into a spear and penetrated the frog's abdomen, so it exploded silently in the air.
But what exploded was not blood mist or rotten meat, but a thick black mist.
Sister Beren whispered reminder:
"The mist of decay has the curse effect of death. Even if the resistance to death is sufficient, it will lose its lifespan due to contamination with this mist."
She wanted to lead the group around the black fog that lies ahead, but Miss Violet suddenly reached out and pressed her shoulder:
"Wait a moment, nun."
Shade and Miss Leyard soon learned why she stopped the nun from moving forward, because behind the black fog, dozens of black "dead frogs" appeared from behind the densely arranged tombstones and deep in the white fog.
This strange cursed creature seems to have a group characteristic, and they are obviously not afraid of the "fog of decay". After gathering together, they crawl towards the group, which looks very disgusting.
“There are also in the back.”
Miss Lead whispered, trying to get closer to everyone. Mia poked her head out of the buttons of Xiade's outer garment, but before she was scared by these ugly frogs, Xiade pressed it back.
"Will anyone guard against the barrier?"
Xia De asked.
"Xia De, there is no need to prevent the barrier. Now let me teach you some common sense when facing dangerous alien creatures."
The blonde witch emperor was not panicked at all, but said in a very brisk tone:
"The common classification of alien creatures has different opinions in different eras, but the category of 'cursed creatures' will certainly not disappear. Cursed creatures themselves are regarded as a concrete manifestation of some kind of 'cursed'. They are different from creatures with cursed power. They are like dead frogs in front of us, and sometimes they are difficult to define as 'life'."
The light lit up with the tip of the right finger, but it was a green light:
"Cursed creatures are usually extremely difficult to deal with, but as long as they know the content of their curse, they can be suppressed with power opposite to their curse characteristics. The opposite of the Immediate Death effect is to give life. Although I am not the earth or the great witch who creates seats, creating life is not a problem for me who maintains eternal beauty."
She bounced the light from her fingertips toward her head:
"The Witch's Secret Art·Flow of Youth."
The green vitality turned into a spring on the heads of the four people, but the "fountain water" that landed later was not a real liquid, but a semi-energetic existence that was almost spiritual.
The spring of youth cleanses his body and soul. Xia De first feels like he is bathing in the spring breeze while running, and then he feels like he is drinking sweet spring water when he is thirsty. Finally, he even feels like he is several years younger.
【That is impossible.】
"Why?"
"She" smiled and didn't answer.
The black "frogs" slowed down their approaching pace in the abundant breath of life. After the people who were constantly washed by the spring water above their heads continued to set off, they just followed the team in groups. It was not until the living people left this wetland area that they hid again in the tombstone and the white mist, and fell into silence again as the white mist drifted away.
