Chapter 606 Two Ferges
With the help of "dark vision", Joan noticed that the faces of these corpses had not yet decayed, and traces of herpes could be vaguely recognized. It can be seen that it was not the water seepage accident that killed the three miners, but the more terrifying smallpox virus.
I don’t know whether they were abandoned in the mine pit after they died of illness, or they were shut up in the mine pit for isolation when they were still alive. In the end, they failed to overcome the illness and died in despair. The painful soul was polluted by the negative energy enriched in the underground mine pit. Perhaps coupled with the effect of necromantic magic, the final transformation into evil undead creatures.
Just as Joan was observing and thinking, a mass of light exploded from the body of the large water element, and the magic force field that bound the water body exhausted its energy to dissolve itself, and the spirit of the large water element returned to another world, leaving only a puddle of water.
Joan realized that the summoning time had exceeded ten minutes, and today he could no longer summon large water elementals to act as thugs, and the three zombies on the opposite side were dragging pickaxes to surround them, so he had to deal with these smelly guys himself.
"Púréa!"
Qiao An chanted a mantra, and a ball of fuel oil was created out of thin air, floating on the surface of the stagnant water, and spreading into a large colorful oil film.
The three rotten-brained zombies on the opposite side didn't understand what this meant, and continued to approach Joan through the accumulated water of floating fuel oil, and they were covered in oil stains in a blink of an eye.
Joan stared suddenly, and a beam of "hot rays" spewed out from his pupils, first igniting the zombies rushing forward, and then ignited the fuel all over the place, and the water surface immediately rose with heavy flames, turning into a sea of flames.
The three burning zombies struggled to move, and fell down one after another after taking a few steps in the sea of flames. They were burned to charcoal before they could get close to Qiao An.
The suffocating heat wave hit his face, and Joan had to drift backwards to avoid the fire.
If the "Large Water Element" was still there, Joan could order it to put out the fire, but unfortunately he couldn't summon it again today, so he had to wait patiently for the fuel to burn out and the fire to go out by itself.
Joan waited for about five minutes, and the fire gradually subsided. At this time, footsteps came from a tunnel on the left side of the pit, and faint flickering light came out. It seemed that someone was approaching here with a lamp. It aroused Joan's vigilance.
Neither ghouls nor zombies need lanterns to illuminate them, nor do they have the intelligence to use and maintain lanterns. The guy walking from the tunnel is probably a living person.
"Is that you, Mr. Messenger?" The voice of inquiry from the tunnel was slightly hoarse, sounding like a human male, "Today is not the day to deliver food and alchemy materials, why did you come early?"
Joan's first thought was to respond to the man's inquiry, and try to trick him out with a few perfunctory words.
It's a pity that he only has a quick-witted mind, but he doesn't have the eloquence to play on the spot. He opened his mouth, but after all he didn't know how to respond, so he kept silent and stared at the exit of the tunnel with tense nerves.
The light moved to this side with the sound of footsteps, and a gray figure poked out from the entrance of the tunnel. It turned out to be a scrawny middle-aged man with messy yellow hair like dry grass and acne scars on his face, looking around furtively.
Joan also noticed that the man was wearing a shabby robe covered in greasy stains, and held a ball of magic light in his left hand, acting as a lantern to illuminate it. From these two details, it is not difficult to draw a conclusion—this person is probably An arcane spellcaster.
Joan silently observed the man hiding in the tunnel. At the same time, the man held the magic ball of light and shone around to observe the situation of the mine outside. Seeing that there were still fires and water on the ground, three zombies fell on the ground in a haphazard manner. All of them were burnt to black, and a look of surprise appeared on their haggard faces.
"Who is it..." the haggard man questioned with a trembling voice, "Who set fire here and burned my precious experimental product! Mr. Messenger, it must not be you who did it?"
The haggard man raised his hand to move the magic light ball, and the light swept across the corner where Joan was hiding, dispelling the shadow covering him, and immediately attracted the haggard man's sight.
The moment the eyes of the two sides made contact, the haggard man's eyes widened suddenly, his face lost all blood in fright, he shrank his head and hid in the tunnel with a scream, turned around and ran towards the depths of the tunnel, talking wildly while running.
"My gods! Can anyone tell me why a hideous beholder suddenly appeared in the mine!" The frightened man cried out in a crying voice.
"You stupid thing, don't scare yourself! Maybe it's just that we are too tired, and we are hallucinating!" A fierce voice came from the tunnel, trying to comfort the frightened man to calm down.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, but you don#39;t listen to me .
"Shut up! Feierge, you coward, I won't be manipulated by you!" The fierce voice sounded again, revealing a tough personality.
"It's over, it's over! We're all dead now! Who will save poor Ferg!" a weak voice cried and wailed.
"Shut up your stinky mouth! You annoying bastard! Felger, listen to me. If you don't want to die, just do as I tell you. I have a good plan..." A fierce and forceful voice emerged. Killing intent, "I dare say, this can definitely kill that big eyeball that trespassed on my territory!"
"Woooooo~ Impossible, Feierge, stop lying to yourself, the beholder is too powerful, we will never win against that monster, sooner or later we will not escape its murderous hand..." The weak voice was crying out of breath Lower your breath, in stark contrast to that fierce and tough voice.
Joan was at a loss. When he first heard these two voices with completely different tones and tones, he thought that besides the emaciated man he saw just now, there was a more vicious and ruthless character hiding in the tunnel.
However, judging from the conversation between these two people, they both called each other "Fierge". Could it be that they are brothers with the same surname?
Joan rolled his eyes with confusion and curiosity, and chased into the tunnel through the stagnant water. From a distance, he saw a figure walking and stopping in front of him, and said to himself, where is there another person?
Joan followed the figure drifting through the narrow and winding tunnel, and gradually heard that this person was actually asking and answering himself in two contrasting tones, as if there were two completely different personalities hidden in one body, and they were fighting each other. quarrel.
It turned out that there was no "second Felger" at all, and the man was just talking to himself.
Joan suddenly became suspicious: "That guy...couldn't be a deranged lunatic?"
