Knight Raven and Camelot, who had been resurrected from the dead, approached the trembling Mrs. Connie step by step.
"Why? My dear Raven, why … I'm Mother, don't you recognize me … "Mrs. Connie's eyes were filled with grief and absent-mindedness. She looked at the once familiar and beloved face that had now become unfamiliar and sinister.
Why was this?
When Knight Raven stood in front of Mrs. Connie and raised his longsword, Mrs. Connie felt the cold light of the sword and felt despair in her heart.
Just as the knight's longsword was about to slash down, the rustling sound of fallen leaves being stepped on came from not far away.
Knight Raven and Camelot suddenly turned their heads and looked at the forest in the darkness. With rustling sounds, a lynx the size of a leopard jumped out of the forest. It looked at Knight Raven and Camelot warily. Its back arched, its fur stood on end, and it let out a roar from its throat.
Camelot snorted coldly and looked over with its pitch-black eyes.
When it saw these eyes, the cat that was pretending to be angry immediately cowered. It let out a shrill meow and quickly ran into the depths of the forest.
Camelot and Knight Raven did not chase after it. They prepared to kill Mrs. Connie first.
However, when they turned their heads, they found that Mrs. Connie had already disappeared from the ground.
Camelot was furious, but Knight Raven did not show his emotions. Instead, he pointed at the row of bloodstains on the ground. Mrs. Connie was seriously injured, and it would be difficult to stop the bleeding in a short period of time. As long as they followed the bloodstains, they would definitely be able to find her.
Camelot and Knight Raven looked at each other and nodded. Their feet tapped the ground as they ran forward, merging into the darkness and disappearing.
After Camelot and Knight Raven left, Alex let out a sigh of relief and looked at the darkness in the distance with a puzzled expression. "Why did they revive?"
Not long ago, Alex had seen Knight Raven's head with his own eyes. How could he suddenly revive?
And a year ago, when Miss Camelot was buried, Alex was also in the cemetery, so he knew very well that Camelot was definitely dead at that time. And just like Knight Raven, Camelot only had a head, a pale face and terrifying scars. Alex could still clearly recall them.
Why were the two of them resurrected?
"Could it be that they faked their deaths? The head wasn't actually theirs? If that's the case, don't tell me that all the people who died in the past are still alive? "
Alex couldn't find an answer. He didn't know much, and his memories were all gone. He could only look at Angor, who seemed to know something.
"They didn't come back to life. They're … undead," Angor muttered in a low voice.
Angor knew something was wrong the moment he saw Raven. He didn't have a body, but he didn't lose his vision. Furthermore, he could clearly sense that what made up Knight Riven was not his flesh and blood, but his abundant soul force.
However, their soul energy was filled with chaos and disorder. They were not ordinary souls, but fallen undead.
But there was something else he couldn't figure out. The chances of a mortal regaining a complete soul after death were slim, let alone becoming an undead.
What happened in the short two days after their deaths?
"Undead?" Alex's frown deepened after he got the answer. "The pursuer is an Undead? Then it seems that the trail is broken again. "
After all, they could not interrogate the undead.
"Not necessarily. Maybe there's someone controlling the undead," Angor said. He couldn't help but think of Mandebra. Mandebra could control undead creatures, and some Soul Manipulators had their own ways to control undead creatures in a small area.
"But I'm not sure if the person controlling the undead is someone inside or outside the Confinement."
If the person controlling the undead was the creator of the Confinement, it would be difficult to find the truth. But if the person controlling the undead was inside the Confinement, they might have a chance.
Alex quickly realized something and looked at Angor. "Let's find Mrs. Connie!"
Earlier, Alex needed Mrs. Connie to leave the city so that she could seek her own death and find the murderer.
But now, Alex wanted to make sure Mrs. Connie was still alive. Since Mrs. Connie already knew the truth, if the person controlling the undead was inside the Confinement, he or she would do everything possible to kill Mrs. Connie. As long as Mrs. Connie was still alive, the person might give himself or herself away while trying to kill Mrs. Connie.
Angor knew what was going on in Alex's mind. He gave the man a meaningful glance. Alex was the one who wanted Connie dead, and he was the one who wanted Connie alive.
It didn't mean Alex had found his conscience. Instead, it made him look even more cold-blooded.
Angor suddenly felt that Alex might not be a mortal before he lost his memory.
Firstly, Alex was able to see Lucien behind the illusion, which meant that Alex was very sensitive to energy. Secondly, Alex's actions and thoughts were not like that of a mortal, but more like someone who had been immersed in the wizarding world for many years.
Of course, this was only Angor's speculation. Maybe Alex was just an elegant freak with a unique way of thinking.
Several minutes later, Alex arrived at a cliff with Angor's guidance.
"Mrs. Connie is here?" Alex was puzzled.
"If I'm not mistaken, she's here." Angor pointed at a pile of weeds. Alex carefully walked over and removed the weeds. He saw a small cave.
The cave was so small that he could see the end of it. It was dim, but Alex still saw Mrs. Connie hiding inside. He also smelled a strong scent of blood.
Alex gently pushed Mrs. Connie. She didn't react. Her chest was still moving up and down. She must have just fainted. However, blood was still flowing. Mrs. Connie wrapped her arm tightly with her clothes, but it was better than nothing. If she couldn't be treated immediately, she would die soon.
"We can't touch her now. We have to stop Mrs. Connie's bleeding first." As Alex spoke, he began to take out all kinds of bottles and jars from his robe.
These were all medical supplies. Alex took them with him before he left. He was worried that he might be discovered by the murderer, so he planned to use them on himself. He didn't expect to use them on Mrs. Connie instead.
Since he was worried that the two undead creatures would come after him, Alex moved as fast as he could. Even so, he was still one step behind.
When he was about to finish, he heard the resentful cries of the undead creatures in the distance.
Alex left Mrs. Connie behind without hesitation and prepared to leave first. Compared to saving Mrs. Connie, his own life was obviously more important.
However, his reaction speed was very fast, but Knight Raven and Camelot arrived even faster!
When Alex raised his head, he realized that he was only ten meters away from Knight Raven! Raven Knight was holding his longsword tightly. With his strength, it would be easy for him to rush in front of Alex and finish him off.
For the first time since losing his memories, Alex smelled the scent of death.
Raven Knight approached him step by step.
Alex's pupils shrank. He was so scared that sweat flowed like mercury.
When Raven Knight was about three meters away, Alex was ready to fight back with all his strength. However, he suddenly noticed that Raven Knight wasn't looking at him. Instead, he was looking around in confusion.
It was as if Raven Knight didn't see him.
Camelo also came over and pointed at the bloodstains on the ground as if she was trying to convey something.
Alex looked down and saw the bloodstains that had spread all over the cave when Mrs. Connie ran here. Now, the bloodstains took a strange turn and extended into the unknown darkness.
Seeing that Raven Knight didn't pay any attention to her, Camelo humphed and walked into the darkness first.
Raven Knight hesitated for a moment and followed after her.
Just like that, a life-threatening crisis had mysteriously disappeared into nothingness.
"Mister Padt, what's going on?" Alex looked at Angor and asked, "What's this, Mister Padt?"
"A small illusion," Angor said casually. He didn't explain further. The illusion he used was not only to block the undead creatures' vision, but also to hide their energy perception and smell. This was definitely not a small illusion.
Alex sighed in relief. "Thank you. You saved my life."
"That Knight Raven just now has an amazing perception. He might have noticed that something is wrong. Before he can react, you should do whatever you want to do as soon as possible."
Alex nodded and quickly walked into the cave. He quickly went through the unfinished business of stopping the bleeding.
Soon, Alex returned with Mrs. Connie on his back. "It's almost done. We'll find a safe place and stitch her up."
"It's time to go. I feel that Knight Raven has already begun to return."
Alex nodded and quickly ran down the mountain with Mrs. Connie on his back.
A few minutes after they left, Knight Raven arrived outside the cave. When he saw the cave overflowing with blood, he thought of how the blood had suddenly disappeared when he and Camelot were chasing after it. He immediately understood that their chase was fake. Mrs Connie had been hiding here!
Raven Knight immediately released a strange energy wave, and Camelo followed the sound.
The two undead creatures saw this and rushed down the mountain without hesitation.
However, under Angor's guidance, Alex was getting farther and farther away from Raven Knight and Camelo.
