"Magic Vine: Bind!"
Shi Shaoju's hands were soft, and as she waved them around, she immediately felt something soft around her. The vines grew out and turned into sturdy ropes under Shi Shaoju's control. The ropes quickly wrapped around the legs of the enormous creature ahead!
The corpse monster had the body of a giant bull, and the rotten flesh on its body was falling off piece by piece. After falling to the ground, it actually turned into wriggling worms, crawling towards the officers while carrying a plague.
Shi Shaoju's vines wrapped tightly around the enormous creature's legs. However, the creature simply stomped its axe-like arms on the ground fiercely, almost cracking the ground apart!
The Brown Rock Barrier stood tall like an arc, protecting the soldiers within. However, their situation was not looking good, as the undead were still gnawing at them from outside the Rock Barrier!
Their claws were sharp, able to slice through metal like mud. The thick Rock Barrier was almost completely destroyed. These undead had no sense of pain, and would even smash their heads into the Rock Barrier to protect themselves. Their heads were bleeding, and their brains were splattering everywhere, yet their claws were still tearing at the Rock Barrier!
Zhang Xiaohou's forehead was covered in sweat. He had seen a lot of Magical Beasts, some were cruel, some were cunning, and some were cold-blooded. However, it was the first time he had seen something as crazy as these corpses.
These undead had no consciousness, no intelligence, no pain, and no fear. They only instinctively chased after and gnawed at the living. The only thing that could drive them away was the sunlight. However, it had only been a short while since night had fallen. By the time the sunlight arrived, the soldiers had already turned into their own kind.
"What should we do? Once these undead break through our defense, we're all going to be stomped to death by the enormous creature!" yelled Wang Tong.
The undead were categorized into Servant-class, Warrior-level, Commander-level, Ruler-level, and so on …
The undead they were currently facing were the most common type of undead. Most of them had died less than ten years ago. Their bodies were still rotting in the soil filled with the presence of death, yet they had not completely rotted away.
These undead were the weakest among the undead, Servant-class. However, their numbers were overwhelming, and when they moved in groups, it was extremely dangerous to stumble into a group of them in the wild.
Among the carrion hordes, because they had been buried for a long time, they had absorbed more death energy. More often than not, Corpse Generals would be born.
The giant undead creature with a body as strong as an ox, a tiny head, and four arms like axes was a Corpse General that Hunters would tremble at the mere mention of. It was a Warrior-level demon beast, but it was several times fiercer than ordinary Warrior-level demon beasts.
Normal Magical Beasts would be injured. If their legs were attacked, their speed would be affected. If their bodies were attacked, their attacks would be affected. If their vitals were hit, their bodies would be weakened and they would be afraid to fight. However, corpses were not injured at all. Even if magic blasted their abdomens and broke their limbs, their other body parts would still be full of strength. Even a broken arm on the ground could jump up on its own and grab onto a person's body.
One Corpse General was usually as strong as three Warrior-level fiendish demons.
What's more, they were currently facing a high-grade Corpse General that had been nourished on this land for more than ten years!
If they continued to fight, they would only be digging their own graves. Even if they managed to kill the Corpse General by teaming up, they would still be devoured by the other zombies.
They had no choice but to run for their lives … they were only a kilometer away from Sunny Goat Village. They would be able to see the wooden fences outside the village once they climbed over the slope. They had to get rid of these terrifying creatures at all costs.
"All of you, sink!"
"Flowing Mud: Earth Wave!"
A brown glow appeared between Zhang Xiaohou's hands. It seemed like Zhang Xiaohou had been preparing for a long time. He stacked a few Earth Spells on top of one another and slammed the force into the ground!
The nine of them were all standing in a small area, and in the periphery of this small area, the soft soil suddenly became sticky. One could see that the soil had turned into mud, and the shape of several whirlpools could be seen …
The mud had the ability to sink things, and together with the whirlpools, half of the zombies in the area had sunk into the ground!
After Zhang Xiaohou returned to the Ancient Capital, he had sold the Molten Crystal Diamond and traded it for an Earth Element Magic Tool. The Magic Tool was able to stack the Basic Earth Spells to a certain extent. When the Spells were stacked to a certain extent, the power of the Earth Wave would be further amplified!
Although the casting time had increased by a lot, there were many times when a powerful skill was more practical than multiple skills.
The Earth Wave cast by the Flowing Mud Soul Seed had a shocking effect, causing the zombies to sink into the mud. In order to prevent them from climbing out from other places, Zhang Xiaohou immediately froze the ground when they were halfway into the mud!
As a result, more than half of the zombies were stuck in the ground, with half of their bodies buried in the ground. The sturdy ground had trapped them, preventing them from burrowing into the ground, let alone climbing back up!
Seeing this, the group was overjoyed. As they were about to compliment Mo Fan, Shi Shaoju yelled, "Retreat!"
It turned out that the last line of defense had been destroyed by the Corpse General. With the Corpse General's size, the mud could only reach its ankles. Even if it froze into a concrete floor, it would not be able to stop it!
Blood splattered into the air as the sabers and axes landed on the ground. It was impossible to tell who was hit and who was injured in the chaos. They had no choice but to use the opportunity to run down the slope.
"Ughhhh ~ ~ ~!"
The furious roar of the Hatchet Corpse General came from behind. Gusts of black wind swept at the backs of the soldiers, sending chills down their spines!
However, they could not care less now. They had no choice but to run with all their might. Under the cold moonlight, they could vaguely see some black shadows running toward them while uttering cries of hunger!
Be it the Corpse General or the zombies, as long as they had legs, their speed was not as slow as the zombies in the movies. If they did not use any movement Spells or Magic Equipment, they could easily catch up to a Magician running at full speed …
On top of that, their jumping ability was shocking. They could jump ten meters with a single leap. Even Servant-class zombies could do the same. As such, the undead that were chasing after them were not moving slowly or dragging their feet, but sprinting and leaping like wild beasts!
"AH! AH!!! "
Suddenly, a blood-curdling scream came from behind. It seemed that someone in the fleeing group had been caught, and was crying out for help.
"Forget it, or we're all going to be wiped out!" snapped the captain, Qin Hu.
The group did not dare to turn around. They could only pray that the person that was caught was not their friend.
"She's not dead," Zhang Xiaohou turned around and saw another female soldier, Jia Xi.
