Zombies fighting demons?
“I first checked it yesterday. “I started hearing strange noises a few days ago, but I had no idea it was like this.”
Nyx let out a long sigh.
I racked my brain to understand the situation.
The area where the Sky Tree Tribe is located is Dubenheim. There is a necromancer’s tomb in Dubenheim.
Zombie control is a necromancer’s skill. I went to the Necromancer’s Tomb to get it, and saw some zombie soldiers there.
There are two assumptions.
first. There were more zombies than the ones I saw, and they came outside.
second. The secret weapon left behind by Charon has awakened for unknown reasons.
If it’s the first time, it’s fortunate, but if it’s the second time, it’s a big problem.
The situation I was most worried about happened.
Even though it was hidden, someone somehow found it. Or maybe he knew the place from the beginning…
for a moment.
– Just wait a moment.
I had a bad feeling, so I instinctively connected to the community.
[3 vs. 500: Is there anyone who is male but possessed as a female?] (2)
[I believed in Mr. Monkey: Real-time anger… Exploring an abandoned house… ] (4)
[Not Netkama: The sea is pretty]
[If you use the power of the President: To eliminate every single devil from this world, that is the wish of all Paladins] (5)
In the middle of all the trivial articles, there is one strange article.
[Lino Johnson: Strangers from another world.] (2)
Goosebumps appear all over my body.
It was said that a guy named Charon learned how to steal souls by peeking into the world beyond starlight.
… I wish it was all just my delusion. But if you have come this far, the answer is already known.
Reno Johnson went to the necromancer’s tomb again and had his body stolen.
Was there no better way to hide the grave? No, it’s a useless idea.
There was no better response to that situation.
No matter what I did, Reno Johnson would have ended up in the necromancer’s grave.
It’s too late to regret. Let’s read the article first.
[Ishtania’s poor victims.
My name is Karon. He is a necromancer who stood against the gods who once toyed with the earth.
I figured out the situation you guys were in through the memories of a man who goes by the title Reno Johnson.
You will be filled with the desire to survive and the desire to return to your hometown.
Unfortunately, you can’t go back.
It takes tremendous power for a soul that has crossed the door to return to its original place.
Do you think Ishtania would take that trouble for you guys?
God is a being who plays with human destiny. A being who does not put himself on the scale.
That will never happen.
But it is too early to despair.
This body I stole had great potential and unique abilities.
Your soul is probably like that too.
Let me make a suggestion.
Entrust your soul to me and become a part of my army.
Then I will kill the devils and gods who ruined your lives.
I am not like the gods who are deceivers. I always keep what I say.
My strength is still insufficient, but if I have time, I can build a force comparable to theirs.
If you have read the article, come to Dubenheim quickly.]
You crazy bastard…
Give up your soul? This is no different from just telling them to search.
Even if I don’t die, I’m sure I will become a slave without will. No different from a worshiper.
In the end, this guy is no different from the devil.
If there were a paladin going to Dubenheim after reading this, it would be a big problem.
I checked the comments with a sense of urgency.
[I believed in Mr. Monkey: -Geun-]
[Shotgun Attack: Are you crazy about the concept again?]
Fortunately, no one took Charon’s words seriously.
There are only two comments.
It is still too early to be reassured.
He will post again and again if necessary.
If you keep posting those recruitment messages, someone might become curious and head to Dubenheim with a playful mind.
There are not many Paladins strong enough to move from region to region, but it cannot be said that there are no Paladins who act foolishly like Hanna.
This must be done at some point.
First, let’s put out the urgent fire.
– done. Chief Knicks. How far have the zombies come?
“We haven’t come to this mountain yet. … But I think it’s just a matter of time. “They continued to attack the village ruled by demons without stopping.”
If this happens, the entire Skytree tribe will have to evacuate to a place other than Dubenheim.
– Is it okay to change tribe?
Nyx smiled bitterly.
“It doesn’t matter if you’ve already moved to a new residence. “If there are Skytree tribe members, that is the Skytree tribe.”
– I’ll do my best to find a way.
It is confirmed that the Skytree tribe will leave the mountain.
The devil may not come all the way to the mountain, but he is not a zombie.
Charon If he’s that crazy, he might even sacrifice his own people to increase his army.
The question is where to evacuate. It shouldn’t be too far, and it shouldn’t be too close.
I’m going to need help from my people for this.
Lakhe, Paya, and Muri were called to Totem No. 1.
– From now on, I will tell you what Nicks said.
If I move Totems 1 and 2 and give them words, they will be able to talk to Nyx.
I don’t know much about this world, so I don’t have a clear solution, but if the four natives put their heads together, we might be able to find a good solution.
After a few minutes of discussion, the Knicks decided to go to an area called ‘Bolvano’.
If you go south from here, you will reach this place.
It is an area where grassland tribes, known as the Golden Sun Tribe or the Golden Sun Tribe, are located, and it is said to be located in the most remote area among the lands of the empire.
Golden Sun Tribe. This is a tribe I briefly heard about from Paya last time when I was trying to join a tribe.
It was said that it was the only tribe that still had over a thousand members. Because it was a remote area, there was the least damage.
The problem was that in order to get to Bolvano, you had to go beyond an area called ‘Latria’.
Latria is… This is where the George Attack Force last settled. The dark cloud devil swept away.
It’s hard to imagine what it will look like now.
Still, this was the best for now.
– Get ready to leave.
“All right.”
Skytree tribe members, less than thirty, completed preparations for evacuation.
It was over pretty quickly, probably because they had prepared before calling me.
– Let’s go.
Since no one among the Skytree tribe members had gone to Bolvano, I had to become their guide.
There is no problem as we will receive help from the maps brought by Muri and Lakhe, who traveled here and there 30 years ago when there was a lot of interaction with the tribes.
– If you hold a totem during battle, your movements will be limited, so leave it to someone else.
You have to assume there will be a fight. You can’t go that long and not have a single battle.
Nyx left Totem No. 2 in the arms of a woman. He is an old friend and the second-in-command of the tribe.
“let’s go. Malak protects us.”
Nyx looks back at the tribe members with a solemn look.
So twelve warriors, seven children, three old men and five non-combatants set off.
… They were all people I had to save.
***
It was a road coming down from the mountain.
– for a moment.
Now I am a totem that can freely turn my head 360 degrees.
If you concentrate well, your range of vision will be wider than that of others.
Then, something suspicious was caught in my field of vision.
– Sky Tree Tribe. Cover your mouth and hide yourself.
It was so far away that it could only be seen as a dot, but something was running towards here.
It didn’t seem like the chaotic movement was aware of our presence.
A few minutes after the savages had gone into hiding, a raccoon as big as a cow appeared, bleeding.
It was a raccoon demon with tentacles growing on its back. The injury was so severe that the left ribs were all exposed.
Could it be a low-level devil who was in the village and ran away here?
In that condition, I don’t think I can live long.
Goruk… Purr…
The guy spits out a handful of blood and collapses.
no. It would be correct to say that I collapsed without strength.
Grrr… Well…
The raccoon devil, who was spitting out blood several more times, rolled his eyes.
Now it was time to wonder if it would slowly turn to ashes.
The whites slowly turned red… The guy’s eyes are filled with red.
Then, don’t you slowly get up?
What, even demons can be turned into zombies? It didn’t work out for me. Is it a difference in skill level?
Not a good sign anyway.
This means that demons have been added to Charon’s corpse army.
Shaaa…
The raccoon devil who has turned into a zombie returns the way he came with flashing red eyes.
Are you receiving Charon’s call or something?
The Skytree tribe did not move until 10 minutes had passed since the zombie raccoon demon was no longer visible.
Everyone’s faces are filled with sadness, perhaps because of the incident that just happened.
“mom… ”
A little girl sobs softly and falls into her mother’s arms.
– Don’t move.
If all of them die here, it’s over, but I won’t die even if Totem No. 2 is broken.
I am free from the fear of death. So, the country must also come to its senses.
I looked around, trying to ignore the ominous thoughts that came to mind.
There were so many demons in sight, none of them were visible.
There are no infectious agents visible.
… What kind of hell is under the mountain?
