Was it dead?
Everyone stared intently at the villager's corpse.
Very soon.
The corpse on the ground moved.
A half-meter-long centipede actually crawled out of the villager's mouth!
The centipede was entirely black.

They saw the centipede crawl out of the yellowish-brown smoke.
The Shadow Figure had failed to split its consciousness.
In Lei Yu's perception, it was a literal walking corpse, a true empty shell without even instinct.
"Damn
