Chapter 508: The Great Adventure of Night Territory (Part 2)
"So handsome." The three girls in the team all looked at him with admiration.
Edgar smiled calmly: "It's just a trivial matter. Don't disperse your formation. Try to reach the first corrupted village as soon as possible and establish a camp."
"You're right, my backpack is too heavy." The shield guard chuckled.
Because of Edgar's perfect performance, everyone's morale was boosted and they speeded towards Oat Village.
Oat Village is the closest village to Maple Leaf Territory, and Field has not recovered it. After all, Simon is not a serious person. Having a corrupted village reduces his chances of sending spies.
Ophelia usually stays here, so the density of rotting corpses is not too high.
"Sure enough, he has some strength. He is no longer a rookie adventurer. This guy's strength has reached the third level of fighting spirit."
Field could see clearly from the sky. As a corrupt creature, the corrupted black crow could see through the gray fog, and its eyesight was much better than that of humans.
"Besides, his sword... is probably a divine weapon." Field chuckled, "He is really rich, and he is indeed an adventurer."
After marching for two hours, everyone dispersed three or four waves of corpses and arrived at Oats Village.
"The corrupted creatures aren't that good either."
"I've heard before that there are hundreds of rotting corpses when they appear. The largest tide of corpses today is not even a hundred."
"This northern province is so poor. There are no dangerous underground cities."
Edgar killed the rotting corpses that ran out of the village with one sword: "You're right. To be honest, there are only a few kinds of attacks from the rotting corpses. They are nothing more than biting and attacking. The monsters I have seen before are comparable to Rotten corpse...forget it, let’s not talk about it.”
The young man's face was full of vicissitudes of life, and he was mysterious and full of vicissitudes of life, which fascinated the girls.
"Thanks to you on this journey." The captain sincerely thanked me.
"Thank you, Brother Edgar." Little Loli Jenna bowed deeply.
"Why are you talking about this? We are a team and we should help each other. I can't wait to eat the food you made."
Everyone walked into the village in a harmonious atmosphere.
However, as soon as they walked in, everyone was surprised to find that the fog lights were already on.
"What's going on? Is there anyone else who has the same thoughts as us?" Edgar was shocked.
"This is already the camp of the Graycastle family." A maid, holding a sword and shield, warned, "It belongs to the nobles, please leave quickly."
"Okay, excuse me, we're leaving now." The captain didn't dare to get into trouble with the nobles and wanted to leave immediately.
"Wait a minute, there are so many houses here, it won't make any difference if we divide them into one courtyard to renovate." Edgar was dissatisfied.
A walled village is much safer than camping in the wild.
"Ignorant fool, the majesty of the nobility cannot be offended."
Without saying a word, the maid stepped on the ground with the soles of her feet, and stabbed out the sword quickly, drawing a bright arc in the air.
"Hmph, don't bully the weak just because you are a noble."
Facing the sharp sword, Edgar showed no panic at all and curled his palms. He leaned sideways to avoid the sword attack and grabbed the maid's wrist.
"So fast!"
Before the maid could react, Edgar struck out with a palm. The powerful impact hit the maid's heart firmly, sending the maid flying away.
"That's enough, you dare to hit my people!"
Mi Lei heard the sound of fighting and hurried over. When she saw it was the hunter adventure group, she frowned in disgust.
Edgar spread his hands innocently: "She did it first."
"It's rude. Kneel down and talk to Miss Mi Lei. Our lady is the second young lady of the Graycastle family." The maids beside Mi Lei raised their staffs and swords.
"Yes...she is the count's daughter!"
"The Earl of Graycastle is the largest investor in the Adventurers Guild."
Everyone was shocked.
"I said, don't talk about my family outside, I am an adventurer!" Mi Lei glared at her maids with dissatisfaction, then turned to drive everyone away, "Of course, you dirty guys, I allow it. You camp outside the village."
"Hey, you've gone too far!"
Before everyone could finish speaking, they heard a low roar from the corpse.
They all turned their heads and saw a lone rotting corpse standing not far from everyone.
Due to the effect of the fog repellent lamp, the corpse made a slight burning sound, but the corpse did not attack or ran away. Instead, he stared at the members of the adventure team strangely with his gray eyes.
As if being targeted by the devil, invisible terror enveloped everyone present.
"This rotten corpse feels a bit strange." Edgar was the quickest to dispel the haze in his heart and drew out his sword: "That's not right, the aura is obviously that of an ordinary rotten corpse."
"Kill him with one arrow. I always feel uncomfortable being watched." A scout raised his bow and arrow.
"This is not the territory of the Graycastle family."
At this moment, under the shocked eyes of everyone, the rotten corpse slowly spoke and said in a hoarse and terrifying voice: "This is your burial place. I have seen your death. Try to unite and don't fight within. , don’t abandon your teammates, only struggling prey can make me feel happy.”
"I will reward you with three days of life. Three days later, I will take your life myself."
After saying that, the corpse slowly retreated and disappeared into the gray mist.
Field watched with amusement: "Hahaha, what kind of airplane is Little Fat Dragon doing? How can she express such a strong second-rate style?"
"Forget it, I'll let Ophelia do the work anyway. Let's see what she wants to do."
In Field's opinion, this was stupid, but the people in the adventure group obviously didn't think so.
They looked at each other and could see each other's uneasiness. They didn't even step forward to catch the corpse and interrogate it.
"What was that just now? It feels a little strange."
"The corpse can actually speak? I've never heard of it."
"Could it be... the rumor is true." Mirei rubbed her smooth chin and lowered her eyes.
"What rumor?"
Edgar strode forward and asked with a frown.
"Who are you? How dare you ask our lady?" The maids came to their senses and hurriedly drove him away.
"Enough, I said, when I'm adventuring, I'm not a noble lady."
Milei was also confused for a moment, and even forgot that the adventure group in front of her was the pariah she mentioned: "It's a rumor about the North Demon. This matter is widely rumored among our nobles."
"It is said that the North was once the place where Queen Xiyue imprisoned demons. And Baron Field, after entering the North, released the demons, made a deal with the demons, and became the demon's running dog."
"Baron Bull and his family died in the Northern Province because they refused to submit to Field."
"I didn't believe it before, but I saw such a weird rotten corpse, the rumor is likely to be true."
Edgar cleared his throat: "Now is not the time to study the rumors, we should take this matter seriously."
