When they approached the zombie horde about fifty meters away, the aimlessly wandering corpses seemed to sense their presence, as if they had caught the scent of living people. They emitted low growls and surrounded the three.
Sun Fei was still in [ Barbarian Mode ]. He raised his hand, and a surge of immense power erupted, binding more than a dozen zombies and rendering them completely immobile. Only then did the three of them approach the zombies and examine them closely.
A moment later.
"If I'm not mistaken, these zombies were all residents of this town before they died." Old Man Cain sighed, "They were corrupted for no more than ten days, but it's too late. This town is finished. Everyone has been infected by the evil aura and turned into undead creatures. I can't sense any life force on them. This isn't ordinary Undead Magic. I sensed a dark aura belonging only to Hell on these zombies. It's so familiar. How could such magic appear in this world?"
By the end, the sigh had turned into utter astonishment and shock.
The nun's brows were furrowed, almost as if they were about to burst with moisture. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly pointed, and a white flame shot out from between her fingers, striking a staggering zombie that was approaching twenty meters away.
The zombie, as if struck by a severe blow, roared and collapsed to the ground.
This is the only offensive magic the nun possesses, effective only against undead monsters in the Diablo World.
"That's right, these are dark undead that only exist in the Diablo World. How could they appear in this world?" After testing the waters once, the nun made up her mind.
At this moment, Cain and the nun looked at each other in horror.
They were all people who had experienced the baptism of evil forces and knew the horror of the power of the dark Hell.
The Diablo Continent was once a vibrant, peaceful world, but after being invaded by the power of Hell, it was utterly destroyed. The undead creatures created by dark Undead Magic, along with endless Demon Clan monsters, caused the entire continent to fall into ruin in a short period of time.
This dark power can be said to be the nemesis of the Human Clan and even all life.
It is a poison without an antidote, an endless nightmare, representing infinite destruction and utter annihilation; its appearance signifies the fall of a world.
Why would such an evil force suddenly appear in this vibrant World of Light?
Is this world destined to repeat the fate of the Diablo Continent?
Only those who have lost something once truly understand its value.
Having witnessed the horrors of the Diablo World and the vibrant life of the Azeroth Continent, they felt as if they had found a second home. They absolutely did not want the tragedies that had occurred in the Diablo World to happen again on the Azeroth Continent.
Sun Fei's brows furrowed as he observed carefully.
As you can see, the zombies swaying leisurely in the distance are still wearing the clothes and armor that belonged to humans. However, their flesh has begun to show a bluish-gray, semi-rotten state. Their limbs and joints are like rotten steel, neither flexible nor expressive. Their facial expressions are stiff, and some even have their eyeballs popped out, hanging down next to their noses with a sliver of flesh attached. Their fingernails grow wildly like sharp Xiaodao, gleaming with a metallic luster under the sunlight.
"It looks exactly like the undead [zombie], a small monster in the easiest Diablo World, and its aura is exactly the same, except for the clothes it's wearing... This feeling is really not good."
Sun Fei was familiar with the Undead Magic of the Azeroth Continent and knew that this aura was definitely not like that. If the Undead Magic of the Azeroth Continent was considered one of the elements of heaven and earth, a kind of natural force, then the evil dark power before him was absolutely not recognized or permitted by heaven and earth, possessing unparalleled corrosiveness and destructiveness.
"Bullshit! If this power is allowed to spread throughout the world, then the Diablo Continent today will be the Azeroth Continent tomorrow, and I guarantee that tomorrow is not far off, perhaps only a year or two away."
After slowly recovering from his shock, Uncle Cain spoke with great certainty.
"Let's go deeper into the town first and see what happens." Sun Fei realized the seriousness of the situation, but he didn't dare to draw any conclusions easily.
He switched to [ Paladin Mode ], and a holy and noble power spread out. The more than twenty bound zombies around him didn't even utter a sound, turning into dust particles like a collapsing sand dune.
Sun Fei is now a level 100 Paladin on Hell Difficulty. Against these low-level monsters in the first act of the Normal Difficulty map [ Rogue Encampment ], he doesn't even need to use any skills; his immense Holy Power is enough to kill them instantly.
The three of them walked around the town and found that the situation was worse than they had imagined.
Not only were all the living dead, but even the livestock and dogs in the town were infected by this evil force. The evil force spread like a plague, and its terrifying nature was indescribable. Almost no force could restrain this level of evil power.
"Huh? There's another big one here?"
As they passed through the town square, a giant, crimson-blue zombie suddenly appeared. Its body was covered in bony armor-like skin, and it was over three meters tall and extremely strong. Its five fingernails were over a meter long, like ten divine weapons, capable of cleaving anything in two with a single stroke.
This giant zombie possessed at least the strength of Two-Star Class Initial Stage, making it three to four times stronger than ordinary zombies. Moreover, it seemed to have intelligence, with a dozen or so smaller zombies surrounding it like guards.
"I'm Mowing Grass, could this be the zombie mini-boss ' Corpsefire '?"
Sun Fei was extremely surprised.
This giant zombie bears a striking resemblance to the mini-boss ' Corpsefire ' from the first quest in [ Rogue Encampment ], [Exterminate the Den of Evil ]. Is this a coincidence, or is it real?
Sun Fei suddenly felt as if he were trapped in a fog. Everything was not so simple. He realized that everything he was seeing was gradually merging with the Dark World. This gave him a bad feeling. Some mysteries that he could never understand before were slowly revealing clues.
" Holy Bolt!"
Sun Fei raised his hand, and a silver ball of light shot out.
This is a unique skill of paladins, giving them a natural advantage against undead creatures.
The giant zombie fell down as expected.
Meanwhile, Akara and Cain took action, dealing with seven or eight ordinary zombies in the vicinity.
"Huh? What's going on?" Sun Fei's face suddenly showed an extremely surprised expression.
Because he sensed that at the very moment he killed the ' Corpsefire ', a faint, almost imperceptible energy flowed from the giant zombie's corpse, giving him an extremely familiar feeling. He subconsciously swung his hand in mid-air, attracting this power. This energy, like a swallow returning to its nest, merged into his palm.
Second update.
