Chapter 245 Attack
The giant fireball leaned upwards and passed through the small door, but did not hit any object. It burned all the way to the sky. When the fireball flew out of the door, Lina slapped the ground while rolling. A hard rock suddenly rose from the ground, blocking most of the door, leaving only a gap for observation outwards. However, as soon as the rock rose, Lina dispersed and sent back to the ground, because it could be clearly seen through the gap that the enemy did not pursue it, and
Shi Katherine and Panis were already standing outside the gate, blocking the enemy's attack path. Freya was chasing, of course, not chasing Lina, but chasing the enemy, because the enemy had already escaped from a distance after failing to hit the attack. After flashing a few times in the running, Freya disappeared into sight in a blink of an eye. After flying for a long distance to pursue the energy bomb, Freya exploded in the air powerlessly, and did not even touch the other party's back.
"What is the enemy?" Lina knocked on the armor behind Catherine. The knight girl guarding the door moved sideways and released the two out of the mud house. Lina wiped her cold sweat and said in fear: "It's so dangerous, it's just a little bit. If the other party takes a little faster, there will probably be a hole in my neck. What kind of creature is it? It's so fast and its power is so great. The power of my blessing magic is like a fake in front of him, not even the blown leaves."
"I didn't see clearly, the speed was too fast. I only saw a white shadow, but the blurry outline seemed like a humanoid creature." Catherine bit her lip and said blamingly: "We were too careless this time. Although we have always reminded ourselves to be vigilant at all times, this relatively safe environment has made us relax our tense spirits. Fortunately, although we encountered an attack this time, we did not encounter real danger. We reminded us of the slackness of our vigilance. If we don't adjust our mentality, the experience of our grandfather's team is our precedent."
"The speed is indeed exaggerated, and the only thing that can be confirmed is white." Vivian pushed Lina away at the door and walked out from behind her and said, "Actually, when that idiot satisfied his curiosity, I had already observed the surroundings with great vigilance, but maybe the opponent was hiding too well, I didn't notice any breath of life, nor did I hear any sound. He seemed to have rushed out of another intact hut. However, at the beginning, I looked inside the door a few times, but did not find his existence. He should be attached to the conical roof, intending to ambush us."
"Even I didn't see clearly, I only saw a blurry afterimage." Freya put away the huge crystal gun and said seriously: "And I found that he seemed to have the ability of Eva, and could walk freely in this gathering place of broken space. Eva, will this be related to your geological research institute?"
Ava glanced at His Highness the Princess, remained silent expressionlessly, and didn't even say anything, but pointed at Pannis.
"It has nothing to do with the Institute of Geology." Panis sighed when he saw Eva's actions, "And it is normal for you to not be aware of the breath of life, because the other party has no life at all and does not belong to any creature."
"The undead? And they are undead who can ambush and sneak attack? Just like the attacks my grandfather and the others were attacked?" Catherine was surprised and blurted out what she didn't want to mention: "Is this also controlled by Lord Nellie?"
"Hey, sister." Lina gave the knight girl a blank look: "Not every sensible undead is related to Lord Neri, your association is too rich."
"It's hard not to associate it like this." Since this name has been mentioned, Catherine stopped hiding it and said directly: "The last expedition was also attacked by the undead with self-consciousness. In the end, it was proved that it was controlled by Lord Nellie. Now we have also encountered it. It's not abnormal to think that Lord She is not abnormal. The only abnormal thing is why it attacks us. We are not dangerous for the Yara Continent. There is no need to attack us unless... Lord She wants to stop us from going deeper, but this is inconsistent with the efforts made by Lord She has made in the past few years."
"Don't guess, that's not Nellie." Panis shook his head and completely denied Catherine's guess: "That fighting style does not belong to Nellie at all, otherwise I could see it at a glance. So that should be an ordinary sensible undead, or did Nellie borrow his body?"
"Hey, you mean, it is one of the undead who once attacked his grandfather's expedition. After Lord Neri's will left, he stayed here after he was left in this area?" Catherine thought, "It is true that this possibility is not ruled out, but this can only be a guess. Although you can be sure that this is not Lord Neri is controlling, there is no actual evidence to support that he is the undead once."
"How many sane undead do you think are free and risking being assimilated by a twisted soul and wandering around the creature's forbidden zone." Panis said with a calm expression: "And it's actually easy to find evidence. Ava, you should still be in synchronized with Saire now."
"Sairui Lingling and Lung Five." Although Eva's expression remained muddy and had no change, she had a little dissatisfaction in her voice, but she still answered in time: "I will be in a synchronized state before leaving this space fragment area."
"Seri Lingling and Lung Five should have recorded the image of the attacker. It is not a naked eye but a mechanical one, and it is also a photographer. No matter how fast he is, he can still capture his image. As long as it is not as fast as the frame rate exceeds the device, so just make a comparison." Deely said boredly with her tail on the ground, "What is frame rate? How do I know, I am not a professional, how can I explain it to you? Anyway, you just think it is a name for my hometown."
"Entity update, frame rate." Aiva seemed to have understood the meaning of this word and responded mechanically, but did not explain it to everyone. It is estimated that it is difficult to explain clearly without other theoretical basis. Therefore, she just replied directly: "The reply from Sairi Lingling and Lingwu has found that the search target has taken a video, and it is playing, it is being played, it has been finished. Thank you for your use and look forward to meeting you next time."
"Uh, actually, I think there is no need to repay the process." Catherine said with a wry smile: "How is it, is there any result?"
"Multiple angle comparison shows that the enemy encountered is similar to the small skeletons that attacked the expedition forty years ago, and it is impossible to absolutely confirm that the two are the same." Eva said like a pure machine: "However, the system judges tend to have the sameness."
"It seems that it is really possible that it is the same skeleton." Catherine was stunned and said thoughtfully: "Can you find out when he appeared nearby? Did he really stay here forty years ago?"
"No, after the attack forty years ago, they followed the expedition and never appeared within the image capture range of Sai Ling and Ling Wu." Eva replied stereotypedly: "Seventeen days ago, he appeared in this fragment area again. After appearing, he settled in that mud room and never appeared again."
"Seventeen days ago? What is this purpose?" Catherine said to herself in confusion: "If the target was us, we had not officially entered the Death Forest 17 days ago, it would not have known that we would have passed here. If it was just to ambush us, it would have been too stupid. However, if the target was not us, it would have no reason to attack us and then turn around and run away. This is not common sense."
"How can we say there is no reason?" Lina retorted: "Reasons are actually easy to find. For example, it has already regarded this place as its own home. We suddenly broke in and searched around and wanted to enter his house. Maybe he would attack us as robbers."
"Which novel do you see this story?" Catherine rolled her eyes and said, "This is a silly reason."
"This book is called the Undead Magician. Isn't it going to fight the decisive battle with the divine servants soon? I think I can find some countermeasures from these stories." Lina held the book in her hand and said seriously: "Many of the author's stories are very interesting, no, I mean, many of them are very inspiring. Let's see what his name is."
"No need to read it, it's me." Deely lay on his front paws and said in a muffled voice: "I wrote it with that idiot Christo, which is adapted from the story of my hometown."
The Knight Girl was too lazy to pay attention to the next meeting between readers and authors, and looked at Panis's expression. Panis was standing blankly at this time, her eyes still in the direction of the skeleton disappearing, as if she was thinking about something. Catherine sighed, patted Panis' arm, and asked softly: "What's wrong, what are you thinking so seriously?"
"Actually nothing, I'm just considering the purpose of its attack on us." Panis was awakened by the girl from her own thoughts, and said with a reluctant smile: "Even if it's just a dead soul, since it has the sanity, it should have its own purpose. The purpose that Lina had just imagined was definitely unrealistic. So, what is its real purpose? Moreover, if his attack failed this time, will there be another attack? If there is another time, then you really have to be careful."
"Yes, there is at least one camp ahead." Catherine nodded and said, "If it comes again, I'm worried that someone will get hurt. Ava, can you search for ambush in the next camp?"
"If there is no detailed time period, you can't search." Ava shook her head and said, "There is too much data."
"It's okay." Panis touched Eva's head: "I've actually neglected this time, so I'll be more vigilant next time."
