"Just say it!" snapped Mofan.
"Don't you remember what I told you about the cave on Shelter Mountain?" Shorty purposely turned around and glanced at the people in the village. He was relieved to see that they were all behind him.
"I do, you found it two years ago when you were killing a Blood Beast. What about it?"
"After killing the Blood Beast, our group was planning to take a rest in Sunny Goat Village, but we stumbled into a survey team that had just left the village. They gave us some supplies, so we decided to return to the Ancient Capital using the easier path. Not long after we returned to the Ancient Capital, I heard that the survey team had all gone missing … "Shorty lowered his voice, as if he was trying to prevent anyone from hearing him. He did not pay too much attention to it when he realized that there was no one around Mofan apart from the idiot Zhang Xiaohou, who had lost his memory.
"Mmm, I bet they were killed by the undead along the way. My brother's group also stumbled into the undead along the way, "said Mofan, glancing at Zhang Xiaohou.
"Hehe, I thought so too at first, but do you know what the survey team we stumbled into told us?" Shorty grinned wickedly.
"What did they say?" asked Mofan.
"They said that there's no one in Sunny Goat Village, so there's no need for us to go any further," said Shorty.
Mo Fan was completely confused after hearing this.
However, Zhang Xiaohou, who was listening to these soft whispers from the side, trembled inexplicably, and his pair of bewildered pupils abruptly shrank!
"Don't you think it's strange? The chief purposely told us not to take the path leading to Sunny Goat Village. It's obvious that something is stopping Chief Xie Sang from going there," said Shorty.
Mofan turned around and glanced at Chief Xie Sang. He lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
…
The group continued on their journey. Everyone was still safe and sound after the second night.
They were very close to the Ancient Capital after the night passed. They should be able to reach the Ancient Capital in the morning.
"It's morning, it's morning. Wake up, we won't rest anymore. We'll reach the Ancient Capital before nightfall." Hong Jun woke everyone up.
"Hong Jun, you've been learning magic outside for a few years. Can you find us a place to stay when we reach the Ancient Capital?" asked a woman.
"Don't worry, don't worry!" Hong Jun patted his chest, as if saying, "Leave it to me!"
"Sigh, looks like we've survived the danger. I thought we were abandoned by the well god."
"Gou 'zi, look at how scared everyone is with your words. Hmph!"
After a few words, smiles appeared on the faces of the villagers.
Two nights had passed safely, and the rest of the journey could be completed during the day. They no longer needed to worry about their lives.
Because it was daytime, everyone was rather scattered. Mofan was still at the front of the group, leading the way for everyone.
Shorty kept nagging along the way. He went up to Mofan and told him about his heroic deeds as a Hunter. Mofan snorted disdainfully at Shorty, and casually bragged about his achievements in Bo City …
"So you're from Bo City. I know quite a lot of people from Bo City," said Shorty in surprise.
"How do you know the people from Bo City?" Mofan was confused.
"Oh, I used to talk to them. They mentioned that they were sent to the Ancient Capital by the government after the disaster. They used to live in the outskirts of the city, but a rich man called Mu Bai bought a street to sell raw materials like magic ores. The refugees of Bo City are now working for him," said Shorty.
Mofan was startled, but he immediately recalled the disaster that happened in the past.
The refugees from Bo City were sent to a few different places. The first batch was sent to the suburbs of Shanghai, and the second batch was sent to the Ancient Capital. Mo Fan had chosen Shanghai. As he had wished, he was able to stay in a house in the outskirts of the city. He only recalled that a bunch of people from Bo City had been relocated to the ancient capital, Xi 'an after hearing Shorty's words!
It was rare to meet someone from the same hometown. He had to pay them a visit when he returned to the Ancient Capital.
"I usually sell the Magic Ores in their shops too …" Shorty continued to blabber.
"AHHHH!!!"
Suddenly, a cry of agony came from the back of the group.
The cry was accompanied by great pain and distortion. The whole group was given a great fright when they heard it all of a sudden.
Shorty's voice came to an abrupt stop. Mofan turned around and saw a bloody mist rising from the crowd. Following it, the villagers began to scatter while screaming!
"Undead, there's an Undead!"
"Uncle was dragged away. He's dead, he's dead!"
"AHHHHH!!!"
Another piercing scream took place. A woman who was running for her life fell to the ground. A long claw of a corpse suddenly burst out from the ground. The claw was extremely powerful, and it penetrated the woman's body. Everyone could feel their stomachs twitching when they saw it!
"There's one here too!"
"Save me!! Save me! "
"Don't panic, don't panic …"
The more the villagers scattered, the more they were attacked by the Undead. Mofan glanced around and saw the Undead that only appeared at night crawling out from the ground and attacking the people who were running around like headless flies.
Blood was splattered everywhere in just a few seconds!
"Holy crap, these Undead are insane, killing people in the middle of the day!" screamed Shorty.
"Go to the side. Liu Ru, Liu Ru, take care of the kids, don't let them run away," yelled Mofan as he ran.
More Undead crawled out from the ground. The protection of the villagers was completely useless against the Undead, as the Undead were actually targeting the villagers.
Normally, the Undead would immediately devour a living creature after killing it. The surrounding Undead would also swarm toward the Undead due to the smell of fresh blood and flesh. However, these Undead were not here to eat. They would immediately chase after the next one after killing one. It was purely a massacre!
"Lightning Strike!"
"Swift Star Wolf!"
"Giant Shadow Spike!"
Mofan was enraged when he saw the villagers being killed one after another. He no longer cared about saving anything, and used everything he had.
However, the villagers had already lost their minds and started running for their lives.
There was no way Mo Fan could save them under the circumstances. He could only watch them being torn into pieces by the zombies that crawled out from the ground.
"Houzi, Rock …"
"Rock Barrier!"
Mofan was about to say something to Zhang Xiaohou. However, even though Zhang Xiaohou had lost his memory, it did not necessarily mean that he had lost his intelligence. He immediately cast an Intermediate Rock Spell as he still remembered how to fight.
Two Rock Barriers immediately formed a barrier as big as a hill, stopping the panicking villagers from entering the area. At the same time, it prevented the Undead from advancing any further.
