"Aaaaaargh!"
All Calkin could do was scream at the strange scene before him.
At the same time, he curled up his body and hid behind Kieran.
"Go to hell!
Go to hell! "
The wagoner seemed to be muttering to himself as he threw himself at Kieran with a ferocious smile.
The violent movement caused the rotten flesh on the wagoner's face to tremble. Some of the rotten flesh near the cheeks fell to the ground, revealing the green bones underneath.
Although Kieran had been certain that the wagoner was not a human the moment he had appeared, he still raised an eyebrow.
Kieran raised an eyebrow when he saw the wagoner.
It was not because it was disgusting or horrifying.
Kieran had seen many more disgusting and horrifying corpses than the wagoner.
It was because of the timing of the wagoner's appearance.
Or, to put it another way …
When did the wagoner become like this?
Although he was inside the carriage, nothing outside escaped Kieran's senses. From the beginning to the end, he had not noticed anything unusual about the wagoner.
It was only when the wagoner opened the carriage door and saw the wagoner's burnt face that Kieran realized that something had happened.
Kieran could not understand why the wagoner had changed so much.
However, Kieran was sure that when the wagoner had changed, it would not have happened quietly.
At least, when the wagoner had transformed from a living human into a zombie monster, he would not have been able to remain silent. Looking at the burnt face and the green bones, the change in nature must have been extremely painful.
It was natural for the wagoner to cry out in pain.
However, there had been none along the way.
In other words …
"Something happened before I came here!
Before I came here, the wagoner must have been inseparable from Calkin!
Since the wagoner was in trouble, would Calkin be fine? "
As the thought flashed through his mind, Kieran did not even care about the wagoner that was throwing himself at him. He dashed to the left and crashed through the carriage's wall.
Roar!
The moment Kieran crashed through the carriage's wall, Calkin, who had been hiding behind Kieran, let out an angry, beast-like growl. His originally pale face started to rot rapidly. Within a breath's time, his face had turned into the horrible, hideous face of the wagoner.
That low roar grew louder and louder.
However …
Bang!
The muzzle of Kieran's gun flashed in mid-air.
The bullet from the [Python-W2] had blown half of Calkin's head off.
The high-pitched roar came to an abrupt end.
The coachman, who had just jumped into the carriage, froze when he saw this scene.
Then, he turned around and ran.
Pa!
The bullet from the silenced Mi-02 entered the back of the opponent's head, and the huge impact blew off the top of the opponent's skull.
The coachman's corpse moved forward a few steps due to inertia before it fell to the ground.
After twitching a few times, he was no longer breathing.
[Shooting: Lethal Attack, Inflicts 300 Damage to Target HP (150 Firearm Weapon. Light Firearm (Transcendence) x2), Target has Tenacious Skin, Bullet Faith 2 is higher than Defense, Armor Penetration Lvl 1, 400 True Damage Inflicted to Target, Target dies …]
[Shooting: Lethal Attack, Inflicts 300 Damage to Target HP (150 Firearm Weapon. Light Firearm (Transcendence) x2), Target has Tenacious Skin, Bullet Faith 2 is higher than Defense, 400 True Damage Inflicted to Target, Target dies …]
...
Kieran quickly checked the corpses as he browsed through the battlelog.
"Tenacious Skin?
It's not the skin of the dead?
There's still some warmth on the corpses!
"In other words, before I shot him, he should have been 'alive' …"
Kieran stood up with a frown as he came to this conclusion.
He looked at the two corpses in front of him and could not relate them to being alive.
Suddenly, something happened to the two corpses that Kieran did not expect.
Gulp! Gulp!
Like boiling water, green bubbles appeared on the surface of the corpse one after another, densely packed together.
The corpses started to melt and decompose rapidly.
In less than three seconds, all that was left on the ground was a pile of bones mixed with green liquid.
Moreover, the skeleton was still melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What is this?"
Kieran was shocked.
Among his Master Level [Mystical Knowledge], there were a few similar situations, but Kieran could not tell which one it was.
Instinctively, Kieran wanted to get closer to the green bones that were still melting.
However, a series of footsteps and voices interrupted his actions.
"It's here!
The gunshot came from here! "
A group of uniformed police officers appeared in Kieran's sight.
Obviously, the previous gunshot had attracted the attention of the patrolling police.
Kieran dodged and hid in the shadows beside him before he quickly left the scene.
He knew that with the arrival of the patrol officers, he had lost the chance to examine the two strange corpses.
However, Kieran did not return to Herbert's house.
Instead, he followed Calkin's instructions and headed to the room where the spy was kept.
Calkin's words might have been a lie, but there was also a hint of truth in them.
Kieran didn't mind making an extra trip in order to get the information that came with the truth.
After all, he was not far from the place that Calkin had mentioned.
As he moved forward, Kieran's mind was spinning rapidly.
"What happened to Calkin and his wagoner?
"After leaving Herbert's house, the two of them went to Hook's lair and met the person who killed Hook?"
"Or did Calkin report to the mastermind and get punished? Is that why he ended up like this?"
Kieran guessed.
At the same time, he recalled the changes that had happened to Calkin and his wagoner.
"They can speak, and their thoughts are clear and coherent.
This proves that they are still conscious and not muddle-headed.
But I can't prove that they are being controlled, or are they still acting on their own volition?
More importantly, their strength has obviously changed. Tensile Skin has appeared, and they are not afraid of common weapons. I just don't know how much their strength and speed have increased! "
Kieran could not help but sigh at the thought.
He did not regret it though.
For Kieran, the best way to deal with an unknown enemy was to kill them with a single blow.
If he allowed the enemy to turn the tables around because of his misgivings, it would not be worth it.
Kieran would rather spend more time and effort on other aspects than risk any accidents during the battle.
After all, accidents like that could be fatal.
"Huh?"
Kieran suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A figure was walking into a house not far away from him in the dark.
According to Calkin's description, that house was where the spy was staying.
PS: First update ~
He had gone to the hospital this morning, but he was late. Sorry!
He had stayed up all night writing his story, and a rash had suddenly appeared on his leg. He had thought it was just eczema, so he had not paid much attention to it.
However, it had been extremely itchy and numb the night before. He had been forced to go to the hospital, but a checkup had revealed that he had been bitten by a tick.
